Summary
“But you guys are dating. You were dating first. And Hardison never told me you broke up!” Alec knows that tone, that’s an upset Parker tone, and his heart gives a little clench. He wants to make it ok for her.
“Parker,” Alec begins, “we weren’t dating.”
“I saw you. I saw you guys in Boston, I saw you in LA. You were having dinner, just like here, and you were kissing. I saw you other times. You guys went camping together,” she accuses.

Summary
Alec needs to marry these people.
He’s kind of caught off guard by the thought. He’s known they were a ‘for as long as you’ll have me’ kind of deal for a long time, but this longing? This is new.

“I need you,” Hardison paused to breathe, slightly overcome, “to kill someone for me.” Eliot felt the world slow around him.

Summary
When Parker and Eliot go with Hardison to help his sister move out of her ex-boyfriend's they learn something that challenges the life they've built together.
It’s morning sometime, not so late that the hunger’s become unbearable, but not so early Parker can drift off back to sleep, and she’s drowsily leaning against Alec’s shoulder in bed while Eliot’s draped over Alec’s side so he can get his hair pet. Before she’d gotten to see Alec and Eliot together she would have assumed that Eliot would be an up at 6am, get that worm type, but he turned out to be an absolute cuddle fiend. She knows she shouldn’t have a preference, but times like this are probably why Alec in the middle is her favourite. Between Alec’s soft shoulder and the blissed out lump that is Eliot, she’s in no hurry to leave the blanket cocoon. Especially when she can actually enjoy it, instead of wasting cuddles on her asleep self who doesn’t even remember it.

Summary
“Oh no,” Hardison groaned dramatically, throwing his hands in the air. “I’m so sorry you guys.” They’re sitting on the couch, Eliot and Parker are cleaning their knives -- Parker uses hers to mostly cut rope, Eliot’s mostly uses them to cut people -- and Hardison is sitting next to them with his laptop. It had been a pretty pleasant evening so far. Nothing seems to be immediately bleeding, or on fire, so Eliot’s reaction is maybe a little more muted that it would be if Parker said the same words. Eliot thinks about switching to high alert, but Hardison, as a rule, has no sense of proportion. He gets about this dramatic when they run out of orange soda.
“I have to host Thanksgiving for the family this year -- and no I can’t get out of it, I already checked.”
Or: Eliot cooks a turkey

Summary
Hardison and Parker have their heads pressed together. He can’t see Parker’s face, but he can see the way Hardison is smiling at her with his eyes, full of affection. Not for the first time, Eliot wishes he could walk over and slide onto the loveseat next to Parker like he belonged there with them. He lets himself fantasize about it for just a second: how Parker would lean into his side, Hardison would reach out and grab his hand, smile at him just like he was smiling now.
In order to stop an arms deal, Eliot and Hardison have to pretend to be married.

Summary
Every once in a while someone would ask her to look at some napkins and give a thumbs-up. She learned very quickly that it was better to have an opinion than to say ‘whatever you want.’
‘Whatever you want’ led to stress and conversations about whether maybe green and purple (chartreuse and lilac) were not the right colours and maybe the whole wedding book needed to be thrown out. If she just said, ‘no, the fabric is too slippery,’ Alec and Eliot would nod and then go back to their fabric swatches.
Some stuff she did have opinions about. Like the cake.
Parker had stolen weddings before, but throwing her own was turning out to be much more complicated.

Summary
Her crew filed in, Eliot, face grim, Nate with two fingers of whiskey, and Sophie was daintily touching the bowls of chips and chocolate platter. Only Alec was looking back at her with a gleam in his eye.
But it didn’t matter.
Her time had come.
“Roll! For! Initiative!” She shouted, and threw dice at the table.

Summary
“Of course, after what you did to Moreau’s men when he was fleeing to San Lorenzo, I’d be suicidal to try to stop you. They say no one made it out of the warehouse alive, but the security cameras were backed up offsite. I’ve seen the footage.” The informant said leaning in a little, confidentially.
Eliot is standing stock still.
It takes every bit of training Sophie ever gave Parker to keep her from swinging her neck around so fast that her hair would crack like a whip. She needs to know what Eliot’s face is doing because despite the fact he has a pretty good poker face -- keeping all those government secrets -- she can still read him. And that’s because when it’s something he’s ashamed of she can see something struggling inside of his eyes, like a little animal trying to get out.
She wants to look because she wants to see the other face, the one with the glint in the eye that says ‘you’re a liar and you’re trying to mess with me’. If she can see that, then everything will be ok.

Summary
Parker knocked, and the door opened a crack and a tall man with dark eyes stared out at them.
“You need to fix him,” Parker said, not bothering with hello.
“Uh, I’m not a doctor?” The man sounded puzzled, and maybe a little freaked out.
“You need to fix him,” Parker repeated and reached into her pocket. For a delirious second Eliot thought she was going to pull a gun, which was the last thing they needed right now, but she pulled out a stack of cash. A big stack. Parker never gave up her money for anything -- she’d made him pay for every meal they’d eaten, and that was what made him realise more than anything else.
“I’m dying,” Eliot said, and then passed out.

“So,” she said, eyes gleaming, “you have a crush on Alec.”
He didn’t try to deny it. “Dammit, Parker, that’s private.”
She cocked her head, “There is no privacy in the Drift.”
Eliot clenched his jaw. Yeah. That’s what he hated about it.

Eliot sighed, pushing himself up and rolling over to lie on his mat thing. “It’s yoga.”
Parker nodded. She’d heard about yoga. “Can I try?”

"This guy is shifty,” Peggy says.
Parker is immediately on alert. “What did he do?”
Peggy says, “He’s been flirting with me.”
“Peggy, just because he’s flirting with you, doesn’t mean he’s evil.”

Summary
Eliot was looking at the door like it was on fire. Half like he should run towards it, and half a look of danger. Alec knew the door wasn’t on fire, so the looks must be directed at the unassuming elderly white gentleman standing on the other side. He could have been anyone in faded blue jeans, button-up stretched over his pot-belly, cap covering what was probably pretty wispy hair. Now, Alec had seen a lot in his life and so he did not trust appearances. If Eliot thought this guy was dangerous, then Alec expected to see a bazooka come out of that man’s head any second.
“What’s the play?” Alec whispered, not moving.
Eliot swallowed. “I’m going to open it,” he said, not sounding certain at all.
Parker asked, “Who is it?”
“It’s my dad.”

Summary
So yeah. That’s one of about a million reasons why it couldn’t be Hardison. Moreau at least was a stone-cold killer; it would be the death knell if he let the nerd in the van be the one to fuck him. And he is starting to lose the illusion that if they got their pants off he’d want Hardison to do anything but fuck him, pin him down under those gangly limbs and fucking give it to him. He’s been thinking about it in the shower lately more than he wants to. It makes it kind of hard to be around Hardison, and Hardison is not good at picking up on stay-out-of-my-airspace signals, Hardison gets right up close, Hardison talks and talks and talks while Eliot is trying to concentrate. Hardison hugs. It’s annoying. Eliot keeps having to specify that Hardison should keep his long legs and broad shoulders and eminently grabbable ass over there, on the other side of the van. The whole thing’s giving Eliot a goddamn headache.
Some part of Eliot really likes that about the guy, that Hardison’s so up in his own head that he doesn’t bother to notice that Eliot’s a terrifying person. The part of Eliot that’s into that should probably be taken out and shot for poor basic judgment.
