ok so i was thinking about that post and-
billy’s mom bumping into a man while grocery shopping - mid-twenties she figures - he helps her pick something up that she dropped and they chat for a few minutes
then he says he better get going, something about having a schedule to stick to, and gives her a smile before making his way down the isle
something about him seems so familiar to her but she can’t figure out why
they catch each other a few more times while going up and down the isles, exchanging a few words here and there and she finds it surprisingly easy to talk to him, almost as if they’d spoken before
about twenty minutes later she leaves the shop and sees him outside - he lifts his arm, giving her a small wave, before another man’s voice has him turning around
she’s about to make her way to her car when she hears the other man speak-
“you ready, billy?”
and she freezes
thinks back to blonde curls, thinks about the slope of his nose and the freckles scattered across it, the shape of his eyes and the curve of his mouth
his smile-
and then, just like that, they’re both walking past her
the man - billy - turns to give her one last quick smile, just a small quirk of his mouth, before leaning into the other man now at his side
“as ready as i’ll ever be, harrington”
