Harrow made it home and called his mother, saying that she should come over as soon as possible so they could talk. He sighed softly pulled off his shirt to sleep the rest of the day u til his mother came

Rowan laid around for a while, listening to music and scrolling through his phone. He got up a couple hours later and unpacked some more boxes with more decorative stuff.

"Harrow what is the meaning of this?!" His mother's shrill voice came from his bedroom door.
He groaned and sat up, pulling a shirt on. "I was asleep." He muttered, running a hand through his hair.
"You wanted to talk?" She asked, adjusting his hair

Rowan hummed quietly as he worked, enjoying having this space to himself, even though he kind of did miss his family. He decided to go out for dinner and pulled on a hoodie, making his way downstairs to the street.

"I love another." Harrow said simply
"So? That won't mean much once you're with zander." She replied bluntly
"And I don't love Zander." He added
"But he does, you'll grow on him.
"Yeah like a prisoner and his captor." Rowan growled

Rowan ate a quick dinner and walked around a bit more, shopping a little for himself and keeping an eye out for something else he needed. There were quite a few jewelry stores in the city.

"oh come now, you're over reacting. He's just a bit nervous about the sudden wedding," she tried to reason
"Ha! Nervous? Mother he's a lot of things but nervous he is not. More like excited."
"and who wouldn't be? Marrying another whom he loves! I honestly don't know why you're so worked up about this harrow. You are to be married in three months whether you have a lover or not. Whether you wish to or not.! Do I make myself clear?"
Harrow glared up at her and smiled humorlessly "perfectly clear. You'd rather see your son be played with like a toy for wealth instead of letting him live his own life with the one he loves."

Rowan found what he was looking for and started heading back home. He considered texting Harrow and asking him how it was going.

When his mother finally left after yelling at him for an hour about disowning him if he didn't go through with the marriage along with other threats, harrow flopped back onto his bed and texted Rowan
"Hey, just got done with Mom. How are ya?"

missing you. How’d it go? Was she reasonable?
Rowan replied, getting back home and flopping down on his bed.

He snorted a laugh to himself at Rowan's question "reasonable is not a word is use ti describe her. I miss you too"

so I’m guessing she didn’t like that you don’t want to marry Zander..
Rowan sighed, turning his phone off and gazing at the black screen while he waited for Harrow to respond.

"not one bit. But I don't care." Harrow curled up in his bed, throwing the covers over his head

Awww..I wish I could cuddle you. You’re so pretty..I miss you. Rowan smiled softly and turned the lights out before curling up with his phone.

"and you're gorgeous. I miss you too but I see you tomorrow." He smiled at the thought of seeing Rowan again

I knooow,,I’m excited. I’ll make sure to make it the best date ever.
Rowan giggled quietly to himself, thinking about seeing him tomorrow.

(Should Rowan propose tomorrow on their date or wait a while?)

(it doesn't matter, we could always time skip to a few months after the date or something if you don't want to do it during the date.)
"I get to spent the day with my favorite person, how much better can it get?"

(Maybe a month later or so, I just feel like it’s a little sudden, even thought that’s kind of the point. But it’s up to you)

i know you can see me, but I’m blushing and smiling like an idiot.

(yeah that sounds fine. Maybe to create some tension do it right before the wedding? Like a couple weeks before?)
"Don't worry, I am too. Tomorrow can't come fast enough."

(Okay)

Rowan woke up to his phone buzzing underneath him. He checked the time and got up, about 30 minutes before he had to leave for work. He got dressed and went to make himself breakfast before remembering that he had no food.

Harrow got up early to finish one of his papers along with writing more for his editor. He sent her the papers and shut his computer. Heading over to the window, he pulled out his sketchbook and drew

Rowan sighed and decided to get to the cafe early so he could eat something before work. He locked the door behind him and started walking, enjoying the cool morning.

Harrow stood from his spot and set his drawing notebook down. Grabbing his wallet, he headed out the door and to the streets below

Rowan spotted Harrow coming out of his apartment and jogged a bit to catch up with him. “Hi!” He called enthusiastically, bumping his shoulder.

Harrow glanced up in Surprise and broke into a smile "hey! I wasn't expecting to see you until later. You're shift is early today?" He asked, wrapping his arms around Rowan

Rowan giggled and gave Harrow a quick kiss. “Yeah, I have the first shift three days a week. But I’m early cause I don’t have any food at home.” He said, laughing quietly again and peppering Harrows face with small kisses.
