Life on Mars Drabble: ZOOM

Another drabble from pushkin666's prompt.


ZOOM – Life on Mars – implied Chris/Ray – PG-13 
Prompt: hot summer's day and ice lollies



“Hurry up!” Ray hollered through the open car window, rolling a can of pop against his sweaty forehead.

The sun beat down, heavy and relentless like a bouncer’s fist. He really wanted a cold pint, but it wasn’t worth the reaming Tyler would hand out if he caught the two of them sneaking a couple of sly ones on the job.

“Got it!” The triple-coloured lolly in his hand was already melting and Chris licked at his fingers, lips sticky and starting to stain.

Ray felt himself flush, suddenly grateful for the hot weather. At least he had an excuse.

You add so much substance in only 100 words. Subtext, even. This is brilliant.

Oh wow, thank you very much :) Once a fandom, always a fandom for me and every now and then I return to write in them. Glad to know I haven't completely lost my touch with the characters.
