I'm back at it again trying to combat writer's block. Hope you like it!

Notes: Carmen Berzatto x Fem!Reader; Carmy finds you drunk in the bathroom of The Bear. (1.8k words)

Warnings: Slow burn, toxic ex-boyfriends, drunkenness

Chef Carmen Berzatto designed the restroom of The Bear as a complement to the main dining room, extending its warm minimalism to the wide sink basin, pale wood shelves and simple fixtures, all tied together by a signature scent of jasmine and oud. Not that you noticed any of this, your head being in the toilet and all. 

“Cousin!” Richie was forming a plan, which always meant bad news for Carmy. A line started forming outside the bathroom. “I told you we should’ve put in two.”

“Would you shut the fuck up, Richard?” Today was not the day. It had barely been a week since the deep freeze incident, and Carmy still felt shaky at the helm. They were half a turn behind.

“Fuck you, Carmen. How am I the only one taking this seriously?” 

“We need to focus.”

“No, we need to get whoever’s puking in the bathroom up outta there.” Carmy took a deep breath, forcing his gaze off the tickets. Richie continued, “if people think our food makes people sick...” His eyes blew wide, head bobbing, as if this were a foregone conclusion. “Okay?” 

Carmen looked at him, practically flinching when Sydney yelled “hands.” Lately, he had seriously been considering the thought that he was a bad person. He knew that Sydney was capable—in fact, he would proudly describe her as brilliant—but, after she took over for him that night, everyone else saw it too. And yet, he was reluctant to hand her his position. 

“This is big picture shit, Carm.” Richie said, softer this time, using Sugar’s words against him: some things are more important. 

“Syd,” he could barely look at her. She moved into his spot, as if it were the easiest thing in the entire world, and began arranging the tickets, yelling commands. Carmy balled his hands, pushing the air out of his lungs. He didn’t resent her, he just hated himself. “Do we still have those water guns?”

“Fuck,” you spat into the toilet. Everything was spinning. This was a new low, touching your forehead to a public toilet just to feel the cold porcelain, and you had no idea how you got here. You were drinking wine! You never got drunk from wine. At least, not like this. You hadn’t been this obliterated since college, the night Mark joined Sigma and introduced you to jungle juice. You retched again, just thinking about it. 

You tried to stand, digging your nails into the ridges between the subway tiles. But you stumbled, knocking into little decorative objects so meticulously placed on a shelf, and sunk back the floor. “Fuck.” You wanted to cry, but everything was so out of control. You tried focusing your sight on the now headless ceramic bear by your stockinged foot when there was an urgent knock on the door. 

“Hello?” It came in all muffled.

“Mark?” you responded; voice hoarse. The doorknob jiggled.

“Are you okay? Can you unlock—” the voice was drowned out by cheers in the rest of the restaurant.

“What?”

“Can you unlock the door?” he repeated louder. You crawled over on your hands and knees and turned the lock. The knob turned and the door cracked open.

“Wait!” You pushed it shut. He tried to open the door again but you leaned against it, hastily smoothing your hair and wiping the makeup from underneath your eyes. Mark had seen you worse but that was when you were still together. It’s different now. “Okay,” you slurred, scooting out of the way and letting him in. You looked up. “You’re not Mark.”

It was a hassle getting you into the office. Carmy had you by the waist, dodging the squirt guns and confetti that came with the impromptu surprise, while you stumbled and swayed in the opposite direction.

“I’ll be right back,” he reassured once he got you settled in a chair with a big bottle Pellegrino and an uneven slice of bread. Richie and the sommelier, Ernesto, were waiting for him outside.

“Nice,” Richie pointed to the puke that rubbed off from your dress onto his shirt.

“Whatever,” Carmy responded, deciding it wasn’t worth it to mention that Richie’s suit was half soaked and covered in glitter. “What’s up Ernesto?”

He looked to Richie first which made Carmen’s palms sweat. “They only ordered two bottles.” Ernesto spoke quietly, wringing a towel in his hands.

“They?” Carmy asked, patting the kid on the shoulder to try and ease his nerves.

“She was sitting with some guy.”

“Who is this guy?”

“How should I fucking know? It’s a woman’s name on the reservation.” Carmen wondered, not for the first time, if Richie was capable of speaking at a reasonable volume.

“I don’t know, ask him?”

“He left.” Ernesto added.

“Don’t you have a receipt, credit card, something?” 

“He ran.” Richie was practically giddy. “Look at this.” He carefully unwrapped two empty wine glasses from a linen napkin.

“What’s this CSI?” Carmy scoffed.

“Just look,” Richie lifted the first glass up to the light. “What do you see?”

“There’s a lipstick st—”

“There’s a lipstick stain, right.” Carmy was very quickly losing patience. “The girl clearly drank from this glass.”

“Can you get to the fucking point, please?”

“Look at his,” he held the second one up. “Notice anything?”

He squinted, searching for something to find, “No.”

“Exactly.” The glass was pristine, not even a smudge. “Thanks, Ernesto.” Richie dismissed.

“Wait,” Carmen stopped him. “You poured him a glass?”

“Both of them, yeah.”

 “And you kept pouring hers?”

 “No, he did all the pouring.”

 You felt like shit; your head was pounding. The seltzer had settled your stomach a bit but you couldn’t bring yourself to touch the bread. And, to make matters worse, you were surrounded by strangers, with puke on your favorite dress, and where the fuck was Mark?

 “How are you feeling?”

 You peeked through your fingers. Carmen. “Horrible. How do I look?” You began to stand, tentatively.

He let out a little laugh.

“Jesus, you’re laughing?” you asked, incredulous.

“No, of course not.” But he had this fucking smile on his face.

“What the fuck?” You did a little shimmy, tugging down your dress, and flipped your hair which did little more than make you woozy. “How about now?” you asked after steadying yourself on his desk.

His eyes raked over you. You watched them land on your thighs, the curve of your waist, your clavicle. “You look great.” 

You cleared your throat, hoping to mask the shiver that ran down your spine. “Great,” you said. You took a sip of the Pellegrino, swished it around your mouth and headed for the door.

“Wait, where are you going?” Carmen outstretched his tattooed arms, blocking your path. Your eyes widened, suddenly understanding what a compromising situation you seem to have gotten yourself in. But he backed away immediately, taking a few steps out of your way. “I-I just meant…are you sure you’re feeling well enough?”

 “I’m here with someone,” you explained, shoulders relaxing.

“Yeah…”

How was he supposed to tell you? “I think you should sit,” he started.

“Did something happen to Mark?” Your eyes widened, “is he sick too?” 

Carmy felt an unexpected wave of rage. You were concerned for him? This fucking bastard “Mark?” “Please sit.”

He watched as you tugged the hem of your dress and sat primly. Carmy knelt in front of you, hands ghosting your calves. He was trying to be comforting which he had never really had to be before, being the youngest. He suddenly wished Sugar were around. “He left.”

“Left?” you repeated, crease forming between your brows.

“Ditched.” Carmy braced himself for your emotional fallout. But all that came was a bitter laugh.

“What a fucking asshole.”

He searched your face, looking for some kind of explanation. “First date?”

“That would be less embarrassing. Ex-boyfriend.” You leaned back, causing the leather to exhale.

“Did he do that often? Get you drunk and leave you with the bill?” Carmen didn’t mean for that to come out so bitter. He barely understood why he was getting so worked up over this. 

“Oh shit. I’m so sorry. Obviously, I’ll pay. I think my purse…” You just looked so helpless. You got a raw deal and Carmen just wanted to make sure you were okay. Big picture and all that. What kind of restaurant owner would he be if he just let shit like this happen at his place?

“No, that’s not- That’s not why I brought it up.” You looked at him. The color had returned to your cheeks, making your smudged makeup look less scary and more…hot. 

“Thank you,” you blushed. “I’ve caused you enough suffering, I’m sure. I should really get going.” There really wasn’t much he could offer you but he didn’t want you to leave.

“Are you hungry?”

Was this pathetic? To be letting the man whose restaurant you just violated cook you a grilled cheese? You had a distinct feeling you were engaging in behavior your mother warned you about.

“How do you want it cut?” Carmen asked, towel slung over his shoulder. 

“Triangles, please.”

“Excellent choice,” he mumbled. You couldn’t help but admire his broad shoulders and biceps that strained the material of his perfect white shirt. He set the plate in front of you. “So, what happened with you and the guy?”

“Asking the hard questions first, huh?” You grabbed half of the sandwich, licking your lips at the stretch of the cheese, and pushed the rest of it towards Carmen.

“It’s for you.”

“We can’t share?” He picked up the other half and took a bite, making you smile. But it was short lived, he pressed the question. “I don’t know. We dated.”

“How long?”

“Five years.” You shrugged, as if it were nothing. This was a practiced movement; one you’d perfected for a while now. 

“Oh.” Carmen put the sandwich down.

“It’s been two years,” you assured. “It’s not like— It’s not like I’m still in love with him or something.”

“Then why’d you meet up with him?” 

“What’s with the third degree?” You got down from where you were sitting on the counter. The Bear had long closed and you and Carmen were the only ones left in the kitchen. “You don’t even know me.”

“Your puke on my shirt feels pretty fucking personal.” His voice was soft, not a hint of anger or frustration. He looked tired all of a sudden, like he lost something.

“You don’t even know my name.” You spoke quietly and he inched closer, wanting to hear you. You could smell the candle, the jasmine and oud, faint on him.

“I know your name.”

“Yeah, what is it?” He was taller than you; not by much, but enough that you had to tilt you head to look him in the eyes. Bright blue.

“Milly.”

You were just staring at him, for a while, a mix of shock and confusion on your face. Did he do something wrong? “What did I say?” He asked, placing his palm on your waist.

“I should go.” You pulled away from him. Carmy wanted to pull you back but you were already halfway across the room. He could’ve kicked himself.

“I’m sorry,” he followed, watching you move things around the office. You were unsteady on your heels. Carmen rushed to help support you but you recoiled, like his touch burned. He apologized again. “Can I help you?”

“No, I got it.” You said, pulling your clutch out from behind a stack of bills.

“Can I at least take you home?” He offered, now standing on your far opposite.

“Uber.” You shook your phone. You weren’t unkind. He was a stranger after all, but he could’ve cried anyways. You made your way to the front of the restaurant, your Uber came quick. “Thanks for your help, Carmen. And the meal.” You pushed the door open, a burst of cold Chicago air cut through him.

“I’m sorry, Milly.”

“That’s not my name.” And you were gone.

THE MUG :(

@tragiclyhip @themaradwrites @youflickedtooharddamnit @secretaryunpaid @munstysmind @mrsmungus @ninjasawakenedmystar @thebejeweledwatercat @asirensrage @residentdormouse @kmc1989 @theesirenteller @karimac @alisbackalleybbq

His words trail off; rendered speechless and almost immobile by the smallest and most mundane of circumstances. The mug clasped tightly in Delaney’s hands brings back swift but not necessarily unwelcome memories; a shopping excursion during a trip to Sydney more than four years ago. A quick browse in a second-hand shop that had turned into a long and arduous -and highly entertaining- treasure hunt. Esme’s entire face lit up with each masterpiece she uncovered and excitedly showed him. Including an enormous and gaudy handmade coffee cup bearing a poorly crafted Hello Kitty; complete with a rainbow in the background and iconic character flipping the middle finger. It was the first time he’d ever witnessed Esme’s signature move of pure and utter contentment; that little squeal and the bounce on her heels.

Delaney frowns. “Tyler? Are you okay? What…?”

“Where the hell did you find that?”

She blinks; taken back by his snarl. “Find what? The mug? It was the only one left. The cupboard was empty so I went searching and found this one. On the top shelf. Tucked wayyyy back.”

He forces himself to move; throwing open the door of the dishwasher, snagging a clean mug, and then crossing the kitchen in three long strides. “Give me that.”

“What are you doing?” Delaney gives a startled, uncomfortable laugh as he wrenches the cup from her hands. “What’s the big deal? It’s a damn mug!”

“It’s not…” He briefly closes his eyes; taking in a deep breath before slowly releasing it. “It’s not just a mug. I put it away for a reason.”

“What reason? What…?”

“You don’t need to know why I did it. Why I don’t want you using it. Just don’t, okay?” He hastily dumps the drink from one cup to another; ignoring the coffee that trickles down the sides and splatters on the tiles. “Don’t use it again.”

“Jesus Christ, what is wrong with you? It’s a mug. Some cheap thing. It can be replaced. It can be…”

“No. It can’t. I can’t get another one. I can’t get another…”

He almost says her name; biting down on his bottom lip before it can escape. He has never spoken of Esme; never offered up any personal information other than a failed marriage and the death of a child. He finds it easier to speak of those things; his grief and his guilt are no longer as profound and painful as it had been. But he can never bring himself to mention HER. Four and a half years later and it’s still too fresh. The lingering sadness and the heartache. And an anger he just can’t shake.

“You’re unhinged,” Delaney informs him. “I don’t know what’s going on with you, but…”

“Just don’t touch it, okay?” Handing her the coffee, he moves towards the sink; gingerly washing and drying the Hello Kitty mug before putting it back in its resting place. It’s the only thing he has left; a cheap piece of porcelain to remind him of the last time he’d been truly happy. “And while you’re at it, don’t make yourself too comfortable here. Don’t walk around like you own the place. Or that you even live here. Last night wasn’t an open invitation to start moving your shit in.”

Tile Regrouting Cost: How Much Should You Expect to Pay for Regrouting in Sydney?

Tile regrouting is the key service to keep the structure and aesthetics of the bathroom, kitchen or any tiled work surface perfect and flawless. Unfortunately, after some period of time, the grout may wear off, change its color or even get cracks, therefore, may lead to some water damages and ugly looks on the tiles. You should regrout your tiles not only to improve the appearance of your surfaces but to avoid further damages since it can be quite expensive. If you are in Sydney and planning to regrout tiles then it becomes important for you to know the major expenses and how much charges are reasonably asked by regrouting service providers to do their job. grout repair

What Is Tile Regrouting?

Tile regrouting is the process of taking out old, cracked, or faded colored grout between tiles and filling it with new grout. This service is normally needed in the bathroom or the kitchen or any other rooms that have tiles with exposed surfaces to moisture. Regrouting is essential when the grout starts to crack because of its age, water, mold, or improperly applied while working on tiles. It is not only a beautiful way to finish your tiles but also protects the wall behind tiles from damage by penetrating and getting wet by water.

Determinants of the Cost of Tile Regrouting

Different aspects play a role in the cost of tile regrouting in Sydney. These include:

Area to be regrouted: A simple plan of the area to be regrouted is the physical characteristic measured in square meters.

The other important consideration in cost is the area that requires regrout recoating in order to develop a new bond between tiles and substratum. Large spaces such as the whole bathroom or the whole kitchen backsplash will take a higher amount of money than small points of decorations, for instance a shower or only one wall. Regrouting prices typically depend on the size of the area that has to be treated, that is per square meter.

Type of Tile

Different types of tiles might be also the cause for the price difference. Certain tiles are harder to fit, particularly more complicated mosaic tiles where more effort may be needed to cover the tiles with a fresh layer of grout. Original viren or matte ceramic or porcelain tiles are generally easier and quicker to reg)point thus implies less expenses in labor costs than in stone tiles.

The state of the existing grout has been described in terms of its quality as well as its ability to meet the requirements of the construction project.

If the grout is completely worn out or if there are isolated areas with many cracks or mold, grout removal will prove to be more time consuming and thus expensive. It also means that if the tiles themselves are loose or are already damaged, then a trip to the tile repair or replacement part will be necessary before going on to the regrouting process,,and this will add to the total cost further.

Type of Grout Used

This is mainly because the various categories of grouts are capable of having an influence on the prices charged. For instance epoxy coloured grout is much more hard wearing and stain resistant than normal cement based grout but it costs much more. There are two options to select regarding the type of grout: cheap and expensive, but the latter is more durable, which can help to increase the term of regrouting work and, therefore, the overall cost.

Location and Accessibility

Depending on the suburb you’re in Sydney and how accessible your home is, the prices can differ. If the area that requires regrouting is inaccessible, for instance, roofing, high walls or shower corners, it is likely that the cost will be high due to labor constraints.

Professional Expertise

While a DIY approach to regrouting will cost less since it will be done by an amateur, it is advisable to hire a person who has done this task before so that he does this well the first time he is doing it. But going to a professional saves you the headache that comes with having to redo the work or tile and water damage that you may encounter in the future.

Some of the Average Tile Regrouting Costs in Sydney

Depending on the kind of regrouting to be done, most Sydney tile regrouting services charge within the range of $25 to $50 for each square meterage. However, the total cost will depend on the factors indicated above.

Bathroom Regrouting Costs

Bathrooms most of the time require regrouting since they are often exposed to moisture. If the tiles in the bathroom, shower, floor and walls have to be re-grouted, it may cost from $500 to $1,500 for the whole work depending on the size of the work area and the state of grout. regrout bathroom

Shower Regrouting Costs

The average cost of shower regrouting may range between $250 and $800 on average in Sydney depending on the size and the state of the grout. They may charge more also If you find that the mold or mildew has affected the grout so much that it needs to be replaced.

Kitchen Regrouting Costs

lower brick coloured kitchen areas like splash backs or tiled floors for regrouting ranges between $ 250 to $ 600 on average depending on the size of the area to be worked on.

DIY Regrouting Cost vs Professional Regrouting Cost

While some homeowners may attempt to perform a regrouting job themselves to avoid costs. DIY kits are also out there and cheaper in the short-term, with prices ranging between $30 and $100 on average. If you lack the right equipment, or even experience, you may find yourself causing harm to the now delicate tiles or even making the grout lines uneven. Further, when regrouting on your own you may end up with a poorly done job resulting in further problems in future.

It is advisable to hire a professional to do the task right and how the right grout can last for years. More often, professional regrouting will help save you from costly tile repairs or even water damages as a result of bad grouting work.

So, regrouting of tiles is a very economical means of bringing back the look of the house and safeguarding it from future wear and tear. Within Sydney, generally the tile regrouting expense depends on following factors; the area to be regrouted, the type of both tile and grout and the current status of the existing grout. Professional fees range from $25 to $50 per square meter. Though it may be easier to go the home improvement route oneself, the hiring of a contractor guarantees the work is done correctly for many years.

Timeless Elegance: Why Porcelain Tiles Are a Popular Choice in Sydney Homes

Porcelain tiles have gained immense popularity in Sydney's interior design scene, renowned for their blend of sophistication and functionality. Their timeless elegance, coupled with impressive durability, makes them a preferred choice for various applications within homes. Whether it's for a chic kitchen backsplash, a luxurious bathroom floor, or a stylish living room, porcelain tiles Sydney offer both aesthetic appeal and practical benefits. This blog explores why porcelain tiles are a standout choice for Sydney homes and how they can elevate your space.

Advantages of Porcelain Tiles

Aesthetic Versatility

Porcelain tiles in Sydney are celebrated for their versatility in design. They come in an array of colours, textures, and patterns, from classic marble effects to contemporary geometric designs. This variety allows homeowners to achieve a wide range of looks, from sleek modern interiors to timeless, traditional styles. The ability to mimic natural stone or wood while offering superior performance makes porcelain tiles an attractive option for any design scheme.

Durability and Maintenance

One of the key reasons porcelain tiles are so popular is their durability. Unlike some other flooring options, porcelain is fired at high temperatures, making it extremely hard and resistant to wear and tear. This durability makes it suitable for high-traffic areas, including kitchens and hallways. Additionally, porcelain tiles in Sydney require minimal maintenance. They are non-porous, which means they resist staining and are easy to clean with regular sweeping and mopping, maintaining their appearance with minimal effort.

Applications of Porcelain Tiles

Flooring and Wall Coverings

Porcelain tiles are ideal for both flooring and wall applications. In Sydney homes, they are commonly used in bathrooms and kitchens due to their water resistance and ease of cleaning. Porcelain floor tiles provide a sleek, durable surface that can handle heavy foot traffic, while wall tiles can add a touch of elegance and protect surfaces from moisture. Porcelain tiles in Sydney also excel in creating striking feature walls or stylish backsplashes, enhancing the overall look of any room.

Outdoor Use

In addition to indoor applications, porcelain tiles are increasingly being used for outdoor spaces. Their resistance to moisture and frost makes them suitable for patios, pool surrounds, and exterior walls. The high density and low porosity of porcelain tiles ensure that they can withstand the elements, maintaining their beauty and functionality even in challenging weather conditions.

Choosing the Right Porcelain Tiles

Quality and Finish

When selecting porcelain tiles in Sydney, it’s important to consider both quality and finish. High-quality porcelain tiles will have consistent colouration and a smooth surface, free from defects. Finishes can range from matte to gloss, each offering different aesthetic and practical benefits. For instance, gloss finishes can enhance light reflection, making spaces appear larger, while matte finishes provide a more subdued, contemporary look.

Professional Installation

Proper installation is crucial for ensuring the longevity and performance of porcelain tiles. It’s recommended to hire a professional installer who is experienced with porcelain tiles in Sydney. They can ensure that the tiles are laid correctly, with proper grout application and sealing, to prevent issues like cracking or water infiltration. Professional installation not only enhances the durability of the tiles but also ensures a flawless finish.

Conclusion

Porcelain tiles in Sydney offer a perfect blend of elegance and practicality, making them a popular choice for various applications within the home. Their versatility, durability, and ease of maintenance make them an excellent investment for homeowners looking to enhance their spaces. Whether used for flooring, wall coverings, or outdoor areas, porcelain tiles provide a stylish and enduring solution that adds value and beauty to any home.
