Pairing: past Sully/Trish. Kind of.
Summary: Sully is there when Trish is upset, like always.
They’re trapped in the Cannery, trying to come up with a plan. Trish is sitting in the corner, arms wrapped around herself. Sully goes up to the bar and pours a shot. The Cannery’s owner is probably going to be pissed at all the damage and booze drinking they’re doing, when and if they find out.
Whatever, Sully thinks. All’s fair in love and war, and it sure as hell feels like a war zone. So Sully pours the shot and takes it over to Trish.
“You look like you could use this,” Sully says, sitting down in the chair opposite her.
She downs it and slams the glass to the table. “Thanks,” she says.
“You remember that time Henry and I were on a break?” She asks after a minute of silence.
He snorts.
“I tried to hit on you. But can you blame me? Sad hot rich girl: Hell yeah I’d try to hit that,” Sully says, defensive.
Trish smiles, a little weak around the edges.
“You brought me Chinese food and booze, and a kung fu movie to cheer me up,”
“To get in your pants,” Sully points out.
“Yeah. And to cheer me up,” Trish says, holding up her empty shot glass pointedly.
“Yeah, whatever,” Sully says, avoiding her gaze.
“You’re a good man, Chris Sullivan,” Trish says, getting up. She kisses Sully’s cheek and goes over to Henry, who puts his arm around her waist and keeps talking strategy.
Sully watches her go, and thinks being a good man is an okay thing to be.
