Borya smiled at you, knowing his boyfriend would only nag him about the speed limit and then send him home. You invited him into the office and began writing his statement. The clock ticked away the seconds, your hand tracing each letter, making sure everything looked beautiful. He, knowing you were trying to intimidate him, said with a cheeky grin:
