Chariot for Two
by demonfaith

"Isn't this romantic?"

"Are you mad? We could die at any moment and you think this is romantic?"

"We're not going to die, Kyle. Just relax."

"Relax? The Mafia open up an interactive museum as a cover for weapons smuggling. We're escaping said Mafia in a Roman chariot! How is that relaxing?"

"Here, give me the reins."

"Jake, I don't think..."

"Wow, this is cool!"

"I'm not looking."

"We're making ground!"

"I'm covered in dust, Jake."

"I thought you weren't looking."

"I decided I should meet death head on."

"Brave, if slightly stupid. But brave."

"Thank you."

"Wind in our hair, wild horses pulling our ride - how is this not romantic?"

"Because I said so, Jake."

"What if you kissed me?"

"...what?"

"What if you kissed me? That would be romantic."

"...um..."

"..."

"..."

"See?"

"How are we not in a ditch?"

"Nanites were driving."

"Oh."

"Come on, Kyle, admit it - it was romantic."

"And if I do?"

"You get another kiss."

"..."

"..."

"That was cheating."

"Your point, Jake?"

"It's still romantic."

"I'm rolling my eyes at you, Jake."

"But you're not denying it."

"...maybe..."

"Ha! I win!"

"I think we both win."

"..."

"..."
