Work Text:
Rody enters the bistro, the bell ringing of his existence.
He felt more worse today.
“Mmfghh…” Rody whines and immediately heads in Vincent's direction—who was standing near the entrance.
“Vincenttt…” He complains and buries his face into his boss’ chest.
Vincent reluctantly hugs Rody. “Hm.”
Rody vents to him, “I feel like shit… my girlfriend broke up with me…”
The chef lights up a cigarette and presses his lip against it.
“I really need this raise, Vince…”
He doesn't light it up like he usually does.
Vincent offers, “I'll give you a raise. If you do something for me.”
Rody gasps and lifts his head up. He pants, jumping up and down. “What do I do?! I'll do anything for a raise!”
He scoffs and lightly sucks on the orange tip of the cigar.
“Anything, huh?”
…
“Visit me in my office.”
“Ok-”
Vincent breaks the hug and disappears into his office.
…Rody huffs and follows after Vincent.
He notices his boss in the room, leaning against his desk.
The ginger bounces to him.
“Sooo, what’d you want me to do?!”
Vincent chuckles—a rare sight to see.
“Just kneel down.”
He unbuckles his belt.
