There's a Reason These Tables Are Numbered Honey

"You're amusing." He said to the boy, shaking his head at the boy. "And you seem to be able to talk enough for the both of us." though he didn't say it in a bad way.

[ode]

"Well, if you're good at something," he trailed off with a wink. "But, just so you know, it wouldn't be unheard of if you talked a bit too."

[praiseofblood]

"I'm not one for idle conversation." Grey said honestly, looking at the male.

[ode]

"I see," he said, tapping his fingers atop the table in an attempt to kill some of his energy. It didn't work. "Well, how about some not so idol conversation? Tell me something. Anything. Whatever you want." He rambled on.

[praiseofblood]

Grey looked at the male shaking his head in amusement. "What would you like to know?" he asked.

[ode]

It was on the tip of his tongue to say 'anything' but he could see that that wouldn't fly with Grey, so he asked instead, "Do you have any family?"

[praiseofblood]

"Three brothers and an uncle." Grey said, leaning back in the booth. "One older brother, two younger."

[ode]

"That must be awesome to have to many people to be around you, huh?" he said with a soft smile. He didn't know why he'd asked about the man's family and belatedly found it weird. After all, he didn't like telling people he was alone in the world save for his mute uncle and that was the reason he talked so much, did he? Not caring to share that rather pathetic face, he threw out another question, "That's a lot of kids your bearer had, how many kids do you hope to have?"

[praiseofblood]

Grey shook his head. "My uncle and brother are sort of...distant. I watch out for Amer and Raegan because he's not around." he replied. He blinked, looking at the boy. "I...don't know. I haven't thought about it."

[ode]

"Well, maybe you should think about it," he said and snuggled up ti the guy a little more. The small contact made him feel welcomed and loved, even if he knew in reality that wasn't the case. "Wanna ask me anything?"

[praiseofblood]

Grey thought about it. "Why do you like me so much?" he asked, genuinely confused. He normally put people off.

[ode]

Tripp's full mouth pursed a moment as he thought about it. He could think of a million lies but decided that since the man valued truth so much, he's share it with him. "I don't know. You just appeal to me. I don't feel so alone around you, I guess." he blushed at having admitted to be lonely. "I know it sounds weird since I just met you... but I feel comfortable around you."

[praiseofblood]

Grey blinked at the male. He was...comfortable with the boy, he guessed. He was annoying, but he didn't annoy him like most bearers did, and Grey actually didn't mind touching him. He pondered this as his arm managed to snake it's way around Tripp's waist.

[ode]

Tripp's blushed turned a little darker at that but found his body leaning into the male at it's own violation. His head tipped up and his lips parted slightly as his his eyes caught Grey's.

[praiseofblood]

Grey looked at the male, a smile maybe forming on the side of his mis mouth. The boy was really all too cute.
