The Cure on the Oldies station: Lovesong

Whenever I'm alone with you - You make me feel like I am home again
Chris: (riding in the passenger seat of Michael's 1981 Mercedes Benz 300TD Wagon, watches as they cruise past the Surf'n Sail) So, that was my stop.
Michael: Shit! (hits the brakes and pulls a hard right down the next side street)
Chris: (clinging to the armrest and dash, remains casual) You seem a little -- distracted.
Michael: Yeah, just work stuff.
Chris: Work stuff hasn't made you cray before, Michael. You sure it isn't because of that dream Paradise had, where Tyler Griffin showed up at her front door. And then, last night, he actually shows up at her front door?
The Cure on the Oldies station: Whenever I'm alone with you
Michael: (his jaw tight) Dreams are just dreams. Him showing up was a coincidence.
Chris: I don't know. I've dreamed a lot of things in my life, and none of them have come true.
Michael: Hey!
Chris: (grins and drops his left hand on Michael's thigh) You might be a dreamboat, but you're my reality. I've heard of people who have dreamed things that came true, that's all.
The Cure on the Oldies station: Whenever I'm alone with you
Michael: Stop spending so much time watching "me-net" and read a book or something.
Chris: It's not all self-entitled, self-important stuff. DeFranco's pretty relevant, and cute.
Michael: Ah hah. DeFranco, eh? Should I be jealous?
Chris: Dude, you're so big, buff, and hot that they should be making superhero comics about your ass.
Michael: Just my ass?
The Cure on the Oldies station: Whenever I'm alone with you - You make me feel like I am fun again
Chris: (grins as Michael parks at the currently closed Surf'n Sail building) I still think your sister's dream coming true has you all freaked out. It's cute.
Michael: It's nonsense, and YOU need to go to work.
Chris: (sing-song) Mikie's superstitious. Mikie's superstitious.
The Cure on the Oldies station: Whatever words I say - I will always love you
Michael: (suddenly lunges across the front seat to tickle Chris mercilessly)
Chris: (laughs and thrashes helplessly)
Michael: (realizes a couple of older ladies have stopped in the crosswalk to gawk and he straightens, trying to appear casual)
Chris: (still giggling, spots the ladies too and gives them a wave, they grin too, and one even throws a wink as they continue walking)
Michael: (groans) That's going to be all over town by the end of the day.
Chris: Who cares?
Michael: It's unprofessional.
Chris: You're off duty.
Michael: It's silly.
The Cure on the Oldies station: Whenever I'm alone with you - You make me feel like I am free again
Chris: You need some silly in your life. You are usually so serious, you could be an undertaker.
Michael: Shut up.
Chris: You could be that big guy that answers the door at that weird family's house.
Michael: Emory at the Griffin's? He's not that big.
Chris: (gives Michael's shoulder a smack) Not the Griffin's. You've got Griffins on the brain. (snaps his fingers) The Addams Family, that's it. You're serious enough to be Lurch. (does a bad Lurch impression) Youu raang?
Michael: How much coffee did you have, before we left?
Chris: Only two cups.
The Cure on the Oldies station: However far away - I will always love you
Michael: Let's try just one, tomorrow, huh?
Chris: You've been kinda cranky ever since Tyler appeared on your mom's doorstep.
Michael: He didn't "appear," he just walked up.
Chris: First thing that happened in Paradise's dream. Are you worried that everything else will happen too?
Michael: She and Tyler aren't going to get together. How could they? Where are they going to bump into each other? At country club event? Some snobby party at the Griffin mansion? I'm not worried about the two of them getting together, I'm worried that she's going to think her dream was a prophecy or something.
Chris: That'd be kinda wicked though, right? Old Man Griffin would have a cardiac if his heir was dating a cashier. Although, if Paradise was handling cash, he might be a little forgiving.
Michael: Amias would lose his mind. (grins) I almost wish it was possible, but it's not worth the risk.
Chris: What risk?
Michael: Whenever the Griffins get involved in something, it goes to hell, for other people, not the Griffins.
Chris: Michael, chill. I'm just giving you a hard time. I know it'd be almost impossible for them to meet, much less start dating. You really have a serious hate on for that family, don't you?
Michael: All I can say is, nothing positive ever happened to someone who got involved with a Griffin. And people who cross them have a habit of dying -- accidentally.
Chris: Okay, now I'm officially paranoid too. The coffee isn't helping.
Michael: (pulls him close) Sorry, I'm a jerk. (kisses Chris) Forget what I said. I'll pick you up after you're done.
The Cure on the Oldies station: However long I stay - I will always love you
Chris: I can walk back.
Michael: Except that I'm going to take you someplace.
Chris: Dude, I'm going to be sweaty and dirty.
Michael: (grins secretively) Perfect. (kisses him again) See you tonight. (makes a shooing motion when Chris doesn't get out of the wagon immediately)
Chris: (watches as Michael drives away, wondering what his boyfriend has up his sleeve, then unlocks the side door of the shop and goes inside)
Marcus: (from the recessed doorway of the currently closed Anchor Antiques store, watches Chris with hooded eyes)
The Cure on the Oldies station: Whatever words I say - I will always love you - I will always love you
(Thank you to Seth for playing Chris and to Erebus for playing Michael. Haven't been able to find a 1981 300 TB in SL yet, but it's a quest. lol)
