(Ahaha! I'd be whistling and cheering. lol)
Suddenly a younger lady came over and shyly asked, "Hi… Um… I had filmed you guys just now, and I was wondering if you minded. I don't plan on putting it on any social media…" Amory's eyes lit up. "Is it on your phone?" The girl nodded, blushing. "Could you possibly air-drop that to me? I would like to have a video myself." The girl eagerly obliged.
( LOL!!! )
Sorrel looked dead-center at Amory, then. "You're going to have to send it to me, too." He said, with a wink. He turned to face the lady, and smiled at her. "Thank you for that, really. You're sweet." He said, with a straightforward tone. He couldn't believe it, what a sweet lady. Just the thought that it was filmed, and the cafe staff were watching, made him want to laugh with excitement.
The girl smiled brightly back. "You two were beautiful, by the way. Have fun with the rest of your date!" She waved and went back to her table of friends, all of them greeting her with excited chatter. And Amory sent Sorrel the video, before leaning across the table and snatching a kiss. "Let's get going, hmm?" he asked, a content expression on his face.
"Sure then, angel." He purred. Sorrel then stole a few more kisses from the other, seeing what it would be like to act that quickly. He wasn't exactly used to being as accepted as he was then, so he felt a little shocked still, though he would assure you it was only the 'good shocked'. He got up swiftly, and walked over to Amory. He held a hand out, and with a goofy smile spoke. "Ha, I finally help you."
( Bye Whisper, see you Monday! )
Amory laughed and took Sorrel's hand, standing up. "So you did." He grabbed his coffee cup from the table and kept holding Sorrel's hand as they walked out, heading for Amory's ar. "So I assume you enjoyed the café?" Amory asked humorously. He grinned down at Sorrel.
( don't got much time to respond, I will later- also good morning! how are you? )
(Good morning. And it's my fault, I'm pretty exhausted and everything's slipping my mind. So I'm tired, because I was sleeping on a hotel floor for two nights with just two tiny, hard, support pillows for a bit of cushion and my coat as a blanket that covered 1/3 of me. I'm also pretty happy because I got to talk to my BF last night and I gave him a ring I bought him over the weekend and I made him extremely happy.)
( Aw, that sounds adorable, but tiring. )
"Of course I did," Sorrel scoffed, playfully. "Chocolate, you, and a dance are beautiful, and I am truly proud I'm here with you." He added, informatively. His eyes sparkled with fun, he truly enjoyed it.
(Oh, he wasn't with me over the weekend. I was with my Dad's parish's youth group at a convention, but I didn't really know them very well. It was lonely but also the crowds were overwhelming. I'm glad I got to see him today.)
Amory smiled and opened the passenger door and let Sorrel climb in before shutting the door and climbing in the driver's seat. "I'm proud that I managed to catch you." he laughed, winking as he pulled out of the parking lot. "Which park do you want to go to?"
( well atleast you had today. <3 )
"There's one with a fountain, the one where the guitarists often think their careers'll take off at, you know." Sorrel said, thinking of the beautiful place. "I really like that one, if you think it sounds sweet." He said, considering Amory's opinion before he would act.
(Yep! <3)
Amory smiled. "I've heard of that park, but I haven't been. I think that would be nice. It'll give me a chance to check it out." He turned the car down a street and headed towards the park. "So how long have you been writing songs?"
"Since I got confined in that office!" Sorrel joked, laughing at the fact he was in there so often. "It gets lonely and quiet, so I tend to get musically active in there," He said, careful to avoid the fact that he looks like a pop star in there. "It's like a concert for one." He said, laughing yet again.
Amory grinned. "And so the musician was born out of boredom. I can't wait to see what else you've written. And your voice is amazing." He put a hand on Sorrel's thigh again as his sign of affection since he couldn't kiss him while he was driving.
( heyy sorry I'm late, )
Sorrel blushed softly, as he looked down at Amory's hand. It made him so happy to see it, he felt so grateful for its presence. "But you, Amory. How long have you enjoyed books? You're my favorite thing to read now, and I want more details.~" Sorrel said, with a goofy smile.
(No problem! I'll tty tomorrow!)
Amory whistled low. "Nice pick-up line." He grinned and thought for a moment. "Probably ever since I learned how to read. I was actually always getting in trouble at school for reading a book when I wasn't supposed to. I still passed most of my classes with flying colors, so I still don't know why they were so upset." He chuckled. His hand gently rubbed Sorrel's leg before moving to capture the other's hand. "I didn't really start reading anything other than fiction though until I was a Junior in high school. Then I found the glories of non-fiction. I also started trying to write stories of my own when I was 12, but everything I tried was kinda crappy. But the story I'm currently working on, I've been slaving away over it for about, oh, 6 or 7 years now."
( Morning!! )
"Amory, Amory!" Sorrel exclaimed, with such brightness. He grasped the other's hand, quite enthralled by the idea of Amory's book. "Do tell what it's about! I had no clue you were writing a book!" He said, happily. He wanted to know every detail of every page of Amory's writing, and what it pertained to. He, though his joy, took notes of everything Amory said, careful to make sure all was correct.
(Morning!!! <3)
Amory blushed hard at Sorrel's reaction. "It's not great… J-just about a bunch of teenagers on a road trip… The main character is a blooming poet, so I have to write some poetry too…" His face was extremely red. He was very sensitive about his writing and wasn't very confident in his skills.
( How're you? :D Also omg Amory dude, blushy babyyy )
"That sounds pretty awesome, actually! I'd read that so much!" Sorrel marveled, just imagining it. "That main character sounds pretty cool, too. You're doing fine as far as I can tell," Sorrel said, as he reached over to gently poke Amory's cheek. Sorrel's eyes beamed with delight at the skills of his handsome other.
(I'm doing pretty good! You? And yeah, it's pretty cute amiright?)
Amory mumbled in embarrassment, "You haven't read it yet… It's not all that great…."
He smiled a little at Sorrel poking his cheek and he turned and nipped the finger again, chuckling before turning back to the road, turning again. He took a deep breath and recited:
(Gimme a sec to copy/paste my poem)
( Aaaah okay!! :D Also, MUCH better. I'm finally okay! )
Amory recited this:
It's no matter how hard we try,
Because we lost our wings so we cannot fly,
And so we're only prolonging our inevitable fall,
From our angel perches never seeming so tall.
( Oh good gracious that's beautiful- )
Sorrel breath appeared to have been stolen by the words. As Amory spoke, Sorrel only grew more in love with the tone. It flowed so perfectly, and it came from his lips. "Amory," He mumbled, unsure of how to phrase all of the thoughts flooding into his mind. "That was almost as beautiful as you, truly…" He said, going utterly speechless right after.
(I'm a budding poet myself. lol.)
If it were possible, Amory would've turned redder. "It's one of my better ones… But still not great… I'm working on it." Amory bit his bottom lip as he glanced at Sorrel out of the corner of his eye. "You probably just haven't heard much poetry…"
( Maybe Amory writes about you? )
Sorrel thought carefully about his next words, choosing them very well. "Maybe I have, maybe I haven't, but I know something good when I see it, that's what being a boss does to you." He said, proud of his roots. Lyrics were veiled poetry, Sorrel thought to himself. He laughed a little at the thought he'd just imagined.
(lol, he's writing the same story I'm writing rn. And the main character is very based off me, so in a way, he is. lol)
Amory smiled a little. "If you say so. How is it anyway? Being the CEO of an entire company?" He was curious. He didn't really know what goes on in Sorrel's day to day life. He wanted to know.
( That's adorable omg :-: )
Sorrel suddenly pulled his hair, and groaned, before letting himself laugh a little bit. "It's so tiring. You never get sleep, at all, and everyone is so hard to work with. People can be so agitating. Oh, and how professional we have to be, it's awful. I'd rather humiliate myself in something comfortable." Sorrel's list of things he didn't like went on, and on, and on. "But, I can say it's lead me to a few great friendships, and you." Sorrel said, setting Amory apart from the rest of the people he knew. He smiled. "So I guess it's a big win."
Amory smiled. "Why don't you set a day each week where everyone can wear casuals? That way, you can take a break from the professionalism without seeming unprofessional. And you take a lunch, right? Just put a sign on your door that says something like, "On lunch" and shut your door so no one will disturb you and take a nap. Put an alarm to wake you up when your break is over." Amory wanted to help, and this was the best he could do, besides stepping out of place to tell Sorrel to promote him to his assistant to help, which would seem rude and rather like he was taking advantage of their relationship.
