The door’s bell tingled and Vin sat down in his usual seat, looking more defeated than usual.
“The norm, please.” He said in a flat tone of voice.

Vien looked up at Vin, the usual false smile he used for customers falling to a slight frown. "What's wrong? You look like someone kicked your puppy," he said before turning to make Vin's drink

“Well, I did what you said. I went on a date.” He looked even more devastated. “And the girl wanted to hook up with me, and I wasn’t attracted to her whatsoever. Then our waitor was really hot, so I think I’ve established my sexuality.” He took the drink and chugged it. “The waitor wasn’t very happy, when I started hitting on him, either. Instead, he ignored me for the rest of the time and flirted with my date instead. I just left…” He sighed.

"Aw, I'm sorry to hear that," Vien said, putting a hand on Vin's shoulder. "Tell you what, drinks are on the house tonight," he said, trying to give Vin a reassuring smile

Vin glanced up at him through his doughy eyes. “Thanks. I can always count on you to be here.” He set his empty glass down and put his head on his arms.

"You know what? I've got just the thing to cheer you up." Vien walked to the back, returning a few minutes later with a bottle of top-shelf liquor. "Try some of this," he said before pushing the bottle over to him

Vin gave it a brief ‘are-you-trying-to-kill-me’ look, but slowly reached out and grabbed it. He popped it open and took a drink. He didn’t put it down until it was empty.
“Damn. That’s good liquor. Are you sure you don’t want me to pay for it? That must’ve been really expensive.”

"Nah, that was something I stole from a party. Apparently rich bastards have the best liquor," Vien chuckled. He took a sip of his own drink, leaning against the counter as he did so

“Awesome. I’ve hardly ever had rich people liquor. Wonder why.” He pushed the empty bottle and cup forward. “More of the usual, please. I won’t deplete your store of rich people liquor.”

Vien took the glass, refilling it and tossing the empty bottle before passing it back to Vin. "You know, I just can't understand how that waiter blew you off. He must have been totally blind or something."

Vin smiled and blushed a little (totally fuckin brutish man blushing I can’t that is like my favorite thing on the planneettt).
“I think he was just straight. Plus, I think anyone would push me away if they had the chance (ok I had to rephrase that because it sounded hella dirty so don’t judge me).”

(( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) lmao)

Vien sighed dramatically. "Ah, the curse of a gay man. Don't worry, everyone falls for a straight guy at some point in their life," he assured him. He grinned a bit at the sight of Vin blushing. Well, isn't that the most adorable thing

(I’m still fucking fangirling I should tell people before I RP with them that I do this oml I’m awful)
Vin nodded a little and distracted himself from the intensifying heat in his face by drinking.

(don't worry lol)

Vien smirked behind his beer, suddenly glad he had worn one of his favorite button downs. "Say…How would you like to try and go out with an actual gay guy?" he suggested nonchalantly

Whatever Vin had been expecting, it wasn’t that. He inhaled half of his drink up his nose and coughed it out all over the place, but he didn’t care.
“Rea-really?” He stuttered, the color of red deepening in his face.

"Sure. If you want that is," Vien said with a shrug before handing him a towel. He rested his head in the palm of one hand, now leaning dangerously close to Vin

Vin mopped himself and the counter off, not leaning away from Vien. The color rose even more somehow when he imagined what Vien might be thinking about doing… a small voice in the back of his mind told him that he shouldn’t care.
Vin set the towel down and looked at Vien. “What… what should we do?”

"Well…this for starters," Vien hummed, his voice low and near gravelly. He gently took Vin's chin in one hand before leaning forward, their lips barely brushing in a near teasing way

Vin didn’t know what to think at all. The only thing that he did was put his arm down to stabilize himself in case he lost his balance. The only thing he didn’t feel, apart from intense nervousness, was discomfort.

Vien went to kiss him but pulled away, one of his odd grins spreading across his face. "Think we might have to save that for later," he murmured before sitting up straight again. He reached for his beer again, downing it quickly before tossing it in the trash

Something in Vin was heartily disappointed, while he himself outside was just confused. Later?

Vien chuckled at the confused expression on Vin's face. "Relax, you dork. I meant later as in after we go do something. Movies, maybe, or a restaurant."

“Oh, yeah, right.” Vin said weakly and picked up his drink with shaking hands.

Vien looked at Vin, noticing the way his hands shook. "Are you alright?" he asked, now concerned he might have accidentally freaked Vin out. He hoped not, the poor guy had been through enough already

(Lol I went to go eat Sorry)

“Oh, yeah, I’m okay.” He sipped feebly at his drink, feeling foolish.

(np, I was eating too lol)

"Are you sure?" Vien asked, now faintly anxious that he had accidentally made Vin upset. He had a bad tenancy to worry about these sorts of things

Vin looked up and nodded. “I was just… um…” He turned redder and didn’t finish.

"What?" Vien pressed, now confused and worried. Though a look of realization quickly crossed his face before turning into a sort of knowing smirk. "What's going on in that pretty head of yours, hmm?"

Oh my god can he shut up now please??? This desperate thought emerged as he consequently dropped his phone so he had a reason to get his still reddening face out of Vien’s sight.

(oh my god sorry, I just had a freakout over a bug like latching onto my foot)

Vien snorted as Vin dropped his phone. He didn't think he had ever made someone this flustered before. "Aww, does the poor baby need his phone on a necklace?" he teased
