Summary:
Kev being awesome about Ian and Mickey.
———————————————————-
The first time Ian and Mickey are in the Alibi together is two weeks after Mickey came out. Mickey had been around for work and Ian had been in a couple times with Lip or Mandy, but they'd somehow managed to miss each other. This time, though, they walked in together.
Mickey told Ian to take a seat at the bar while he went upstairs to check on the girls and when he finished his business they didn't leave right away. Mickey took the seat next to Ian and ordered a drink to match his. Kev poured his beer and placed it down in front of him with a subtle little nod. He looked at Ian and then back at Mickey and winked, bustling down the bar to collect the dirty glasses and wipe down the counter.
It didn't matter what shit went down between Mickey and Kev before because now Kev was giving him permission and that was something Mickey needed. He slid almost all the way off his chair until his toes touched the floor and scooted his stool closer to Ian's just because he could.
