Date Challenge by Aingeal
Title: A Mountie never forgets the date
Pairing: Fraser/Vecchio
Rating: G/PG
Summary: 316 words of dialogue as Ray asks Fraser he he remebers the significance of the date (as in calendar date ;-) Totally unbeta-ed to get it in under the deadline.
A Mountie never forgets the date
“Ray, why aren’t we going anywhere today? I thought you wanted to see the new sports exhibit at the museum.”
“I said I would take you, Benny, that doesn’t mean I wanted to go.”
“But you’re not?”
“Not what?”
“Taking me.”
“No.”
“Why?”
“Benny, what’s the date?”
“June third.”
“Exactly.”
“Ah.”
“You don’t remember do you?”
“Remember what?”
“What’s happening today.”
“Ah. Well no, Ray.”
“I don’t believe this, Mr Encyclopaedia can’t remember.”
“It’s not your birthday, or mine. It’s not our anniversary. Its not Dief’s birthday, your mother’s birthday or in fact any member of your family. Is it a significant date related to us?”
“Yes, Benny.”
“So it concerns the two of us.”
“Yeah.”
“Ah. But it’s not an anniversary?”
“No.”
“We’re not going on a date?”
“Would we still be in the apartment if we were?”
“We might, in fact our last date we didn’t go out but spent most of the evening…”
“Benny, come on, you’ve got to remember.”
“I’m sorry, Ray I don’t.”
“What did I say to you last month?”
“You said a lot of things to me last month, Ray. How specific was it?”
“Very specific.”
“And it concerned?”
“Your furniture.”
“Oh.”
“A particular piece of furniture.”
“Ray, is the new bed being delivered today?”
“Yes, Benny.”
“And that’s why we can’t go out.”
“Exactly. Besides as soon as the delivery guys have gone we’re trying it out.”
“That is a good idea, Ray.”
“So how come you don’t remember?”
“You never told me, Ray. You rearranged the date three days but you never told me what it was.”
“Are you sure?”
“Positive.”
“You know, Benny, the delivery guys aren’t due ‘til eleven clock. You want to give the old bed a proper goodbye?”
“It seems only right, Ray.”
“So you don’t mind staying in today?”
“Not at all, Ray. Not at all.”
