rachel & gabe: i’m his little downtown doll (001). 🍓

SHE grew to like this routine, as a broadway ingenue. as soon as the curtain call was over, as all the flowers were being thrown on the stage and as noisy critics and interviewers left everyone alone for good, rachel would hurry her way out of the theater. she would throw on her outfit, which rarely consisted of more than a trench coat with a flowy skirt and blouse underneath, and rushed her way to her new favorite place. she had heard about the bar from one of the technicians during the interlude and soon as she took their suggestion into consideration and went for a visit, she got hooked. it was a bar like any others, loud, sort of smelly and where everyone ended up being smashed. what, or more like who, really caught her attention was this tall and built man she had met. right from the start, they hit it off — flirted, even. every time they met sort of felt the same. there had been one too many nights since then. she would order a glass of rosé, which would be filled by gabe again and again. she would ask him about his day, him asking about hers. and, eventually, she would end up rambling about how hard it was to be a star. usually, they would laugh it off and move on. that night, however, it was different.

he made a promise, perhaps a dare, and the next thing she knew, she was chugging her drink and following him in the cold breeze of the night to his place. her heart was racing and beating so loud she could almost ear it. when he unlocked his door and invited him, her impatience reached new highs. "about what you said at the bar, before we left..." rachel stepped closer to the man, a wave of timidity forced her to look down. she tried to convince herself that a little impulsivity never hurt anybody. the worst that could happen was him mocking her, which he had done plenty of times during their no longer impromptu encounters. and the best made her core clench around nothing. "when are you going to fuck the brat out of me? or do i have to beg for it?"
