"....I didn't say /that/, I said they still might not forgive you...."

She shrugged. "Then that's up to them. I can't make them like me."

2016-06-17 07:10:15

🌀

I don't want her to lose something like that....just because of something silly like this...... {Shhh, it's alright. Just focus on what comes next. Ren's responsible enough to solve their own problems. You have your own relationship to worry about right now.}

"I won't lose them, trust me."

2016-06-17 07:15:44

🌀

"........okay." {Let it go. It's not your problem right now.}

2016-06-17 07:17:31

●

She squeezed his hand. "Cheer up. Things will be better."

2016-06-17 07:18:36

🌀

"You've never...had a conflict like this with them. You don't know that."

2016-06-17 07:20:04

●

"But I'm not going to make things better for them by worry about it. Just like how sometimes my emotions makes things bad for you."

2016-06-17 07:21:07

🌀

"I suppose....."

2016-06-17 07:23:19

●

She leaned to the side and kissed his cheek. "Oh come on, you know I'm right. They'll come to me when they're ready. I'm okay with giving them space."

2016-06-17 07:25:14

🌀

"As.....as long as you're sure." Come on. If you're this depressed, you won't be able to do it right.... Don't think about them, they don't matter right now. We arrived at the restaurant, where from the outside

the lights appeared to be out.

●

She looked to Seculus and raised an eyebrow. "You sure this is open?"

2016-06-17 07:29:52

🌀

"...very sure." I took a deep breath and pushed the door open. The restaurant was softly lit by scattered candles, and nothing else.

2016-06-17 07:35:33

●

She stepped inside, then noticed the candles. Hmm...?

2016-06-17 07:36:49

🌀

One table was decorated more generously with both candles and rose petals on top of a tablecloth, with a vase in the center holding several more. One blue and one white rose sat balanced

in the middle.

●

She could help but smile. "Aw, Seculus. Did you do this for me?"

2016-06-17 07:43:45

🌀

"....y-yes...." Now here comes the hard part. I tugged her over to the table and sat her down in the seat opposite mine.

2016-06-17 07:45:51

●

She sat down, and crossed her legs. This was...really sweet.

2016-06-17 07:46:41

🌀

Oh, shit. I'm rethinking this next part. ...but there's no going back now. Or should I just...not? Leave it like this, and let her enjoy it....no, I can't back out. Madison came out of the kitchen in a rented classic waiter's uniform, holding a notepad and grinning. ...lucky. He doesn't have to hide how excited he is for this. "May I take your order?"

2016-06-17 07:50:09

●

She started to giggle. "Oh my god, Madison. You look /adorable./"

2016-06-17 07:50:53

🌀

He turned bright red and managed to refrain from making a sexual joke. "Th-thanks. ...uh, so, order?" "...why are you asking, exactly?" "What? That's my-- /OH/, right, sorry. It'll be out in a second."

2016-06-17 07:55:29

●

These two were being silly. She couldn't help but laugh What was this...?

2016-06-17 07:58:11

🌀

He winked at her. Stop it, you'll give it away.

It'll be fine, believe me, she's clueless about this sort of thing.

If you say so..... "So, you enjoying yourself so far?" he asked.

2016-06-17 08:01:42

●

Give what away? "Yes. I am. This is...really nice."

2016-06-17 08:04:16

🌀

N-nothing. "Good." He wasn't going to say what an effort it was. "I'll be right back with your food." He left again and I shifted nervously in my chair, suddenly without a wingman. What do I do until..... "....s-s-so....um.....do you.....like?....." Wait, that's a first date kind of question, that makes no sense.
