Chapter Text
Gavin had hoped, that after the whole revolution thing that Connor would just leave, but no, the plastic prick thought it was a good idea to stay on the force, and everyone is somehow okay with it???!!! It seems like everyday he has to see that stupid Robocop and that old fart Hank. Even when he is off, he still runs into them, Gavin could deal with Hank, but he just hated seeing Connor and his dumb face. He didnt know why out of all the places in Detroit, that Connor had somehow found a way to be at the places he was.
He didnt like it one bit, the ken doll with a brain always tried to talk to him, saying shit like "Hello detective Reed, how are you?" Gavin hated everything that came out of Connors mouth. At some point he just decided it was too much of a hassle to even acknowledge the android anymore, he just ignored him and stayed at home so he didnt have to see that smug look on that pricks face.
At least when he was at home, he could relax with his only friend, Socks. Socks is his cat, she was all black except for her paws, they wear white. Gavin loved that cat more than anything in his life, but there were days when he felt he needed some human company.
After several days of watching old vine compilations, drinking cheap beer, and wishing the world ended back in 2012, he felt the loneliness hit, and it hit hard. Not even Socks could make him smile. He pulled out a mobile device and after several internal pep talks, he downloaded a dating app. He felt like he had hit rock bottom, "am i really gonna do this?? Do I really need this much help to get a date?" But alas, he was a man with a need for some affection.
He felt shame after he made his profile, he used a few really corny pick up lines and he tried to make himself look like a cool dude, they key word is tried. Gavin added some pictures that he thought made him look like a stud, but most of them had his beloved cat with him, if anything was gonna help him a little, it would be her, bitches love tuff men with cute animals, right?
He had almost finished his profile, but he needed to put his preferences. Anything human would do, he thought to himself, so he hit the both option. He was bisexual, but he was still very much so in the closet. He was nervous at first, but he knew that no one on the force would find his profile, and if they did it wasnt gonna kill them to find out he swung both ways. He looked at the time "shit its already 3 am", he called for Socks and went to his bedroom to get some much needed sleep.
He was violently woken up from his slumber by his cat suffocating him. It was five minutes before his alarm was supposed to go off, cats truly make your life interesting. He moves her off of his neck and shuts his alarm clock off before it started to beep aggressively. He got out of bed with a loud groan and made his way to the shower. Socks opens up the door to the bathroom and moves the shower curtain to see what he was doing, giving the poor detective a mild heart attack. If he wasnt awake then, he was surely awake now.
Gavin didnt have time to eat anything before being late, he pours some cat food out and leaves to work. He always dreads this part of the mourning, having to see Hank and Connor always made his day worse. They would joke around and be friendly, even though Connor is a bucket of metal. But then again Hank did like listening to heavy metal, Gavin let out a snort at his own terrible joke, sadly they heard him. Hank asked him what was so funny, Gavin just glared at Hank, didnt even answer the mans question, Hank let out a sigh and mumbled something under his breath. Gavin stared to look at the massive mess that he calls a desk, and before he could move some of his trash and get to work, Connor had somehow snuck over and asked him " detective Reed, what was so funny?" Oh god that android piece of shit had a smile on his face, he knew he was pissing Gavin off. "Fuck off dipshit" Gavin gave the android a slight shove, Connor was having none of it. "Detective, why dont we take this dispute to a private?" Gavin paused and looked confused for a second but then followed Connor to a different room. Hank was confused, but he didnt really care, so he got himself a cup a coffee and just sat at his desk waiting to see what drama was about to unfold.
