The last of the autumn leaves are deep on the ground. The richness of their colours has worn away leaving behind the soft rotting mulch.

Matt adjusts his position on the bench. He stares down at his feet and twiddles with the Styrofoam cup in his hands.

After a while, the slight breeze sets his teeth on edge and he pulls his jacket closer around him.

A sound, one set of footsteps among hundreds, catches his attention. He lifts his head just enough to see a pair of khaki clad legs kicking through the leaf fall.

Matt shifts position nervously, turning the cup around and around in his hands. The owner of the legs walks over to the bench and sits down next to him.

“I’m sorry I’m late,” Mohinder murmurs, fussing with his messenger bag.

“I hadn't noticed,” Matt mutters.

“Liar,” Mohinder says, fondly.

“Well.”

Mohinder snorts in amusement. He pulls out a selection of files and books and shuffles them on his knee. Using the movements as cover, he reaches over and briefly strokes the back of Matt’s hand.

Matt sighs and sits back, looking straight ahead. “Tonight?”

“I can’t,” Mohinder says softly. “I have a serum iteration to show Arthur. Tomorrow night?”

“Can’t, I have a meeting with Angela,” Matt says with shrug. “Night after?”

“Night after,” Mohinder agrees.

Matt reaches over and brushes his hand over Mohinder’s knee. “The motel in Brooklyn?”

“We were there two weeks ago. How about the one in Queens?” Mohinder suggests.

“Okay, good,” Matt agrees. “I miss you.”

“Me too.” Mohinder leans against Matt’s shoulder for a fraction of a second. “You know, if you wanted Arthur would be only too happy for you to join us and…”

“No,” Matt says quietly.

“No,” Mohinder agrees. He sighs deeply. “I better go. I’ll see you at the motel.”

“Okay,” Matt mumbles. “See you.”

He waits while Mohinder gets up and trudges away. He waits another few minutes, as dozens more people pass by, before he leaves.

Hi there! I really like the way the show has them on the two opposing sides. It's not foeyay, sadly, but something akin to it.

Thanks for reading and commenting.

well, in a way it not being foe yay is good, because maybe they won't stay on opposite sides?

That's a good point :) And genuine foeyay would mean they'd have to try and kill each other. Which would be bad... hee.

That gives me the rage, that marriage Petrelli, is spreading gradually to Matt and Mohinder,!
Will there be a way for the marriage petrelli disappears from the map?

Ohhh, okay. That's a relief! Arthur would be happy to have Matt join their side. But, you know he's evil. Hee.

You came to play! *loves you* Thank you for bringing us some Heroes :D

Arthur *is* evil - he must be stopped, if only so these to can stop sneaking around and get back to playing with Matt's handcuffs ;-)

I said I'd try :) That's possibly the shortest thing I've ever written, heh.

Handcuffs... mmm. Between that and Boudecia7 poking me for more snippets I might have to revisit.

Handcuffs can be *fun*

*nudges you*

All the stuff I've done I don't think I've ever done handcuffs. Oh, wait, 'Kindness' for Mohinder and 'Sated' and 'Housebroken' for Matt. Doh.

Gilmore wasn't such a bondage friendly fandom. Despite the canon handcuffs!

Nicely written.

Unfortunately I discontinued viewing Heroes after Eccleston's short lived stint, so I haven't kept up with any of the storyline.

Thanks :D Apparently they keep trying to get Eccleston back but his schedule is completely chocka.
