Called in a favor to Rita who was able to pull a few strings.

I took 30mg of melatonin last night to get some sleep. It's 2pm and I'm still feeling it.
// So I'm going to apologize in advance, Rafael canonically speaks Spanish but my dumb ass does not. I can pick up a few words but I took German instead during school

// Even then I got 2-3 concussions during school and only remember "I love you" and "Shit"

"He's more.. Relaxed. I respect that, and him. He's a good man and yes, I am." A waiter came over to take their order, Rafael ordering his chicken alfredo and another glass of scotch.
ㅤ❝ I like Fin, he throws out comments that make things less difficult or brutal. ❞ She bit her finger again, already looking unfriendly. Her belly would start making rumbling noises before long. ❝ I have heard that you are Cuban, is that correct? ❞
"I fought myself on it a few times, but I liked it and didn't see myself moving anytime soon. Of course it bit me in the ass a little when I left for Iowa." That made him snort into his glass. "Fin is the gossip king."
ㅤ❝ I moved a few days ago, and I didn't buy the apartment because places don't last me very long. ❞ Mackenzie looked to the side, waiting for someone to arrive to take her order. ❝ They have good gossip, Carisi and Fin especially. ❞
"I bought my apartment, thank fuck. That rent would have killed me eventually." Rafael shrugged a shoulder at the mention of it being passed through the squad. "Not surprised, they gossip like high schools girls."
ㅤ❝ Two grand? Almost what I pay for rent. Anyway, I've heard that before, Amanda mentioned it to Nick, he mentioned it to Fin and.. Well, you know. ❞
"Gucci? No. I'm just a prosecutor. Or was.. Either way, didn't make enough to have that kind of closet. Suits were still a good two grand a piece though."
ㅤ❝ Are any of your outfits Gucci? I dress normal and still win several cases, I can even be the bad detective. ❞ She didn't even bother to look at the menu, she knew what she was going to order as soon as walked through the door. What she was going to order was a mojito.
"Gotta spice things up a bit. I play to win in both my cases and the looks department." His smirk only grew, sitting up more in his chair as he started looking over the menu.
She grimaced to hide the smile that was threatening to come out, that didn't stop her from biting her thumbnail, thinking what to say. ㅤ❝ Your ties are fun, not to mention you're the first person I've ever met to wear suspenders. ❞
"Tell me about it. What can I say? He picked up a few things from following me around like a puppy." That had him smirking as he picked up his glass of scotch and took a sip.
Shook her head, laughing softly as she sat across from him. She was in her usual work clothes, had a case at the last minute. ㅤ❝ It's rare to see him without his expensive suits, you know? ❞
"That is something he would be angry about." Sitting down into his chair he cracks a smile. He's dressed down since it's Sunday. Wearing dark blue jeans and a polo.
ㅤ❝ Carisi gave me the recipe for his pastas, but he has been angry countless times because mine are better than his. ❞ A little joke, actually their pastas were ugly.
