Met stood there, looking confused. “Um,,, I don’t know.” And he really didn’t. The words that Andre said just jumbled up and squished together in his mind.
Booorrrreeeeeeeeedddoooooooommmm

Andre ran a hand through his hair. "Is there anything you particularly like…?" he tried again, hoping to get at least a general response from Met.
group
(omg i just thought of a pun one of my bois can use: I'm glad to have Met you.
like it's hella cheesy but I don't care)
“N-not that I know of,” The boy stuttered, shaking his head. He liked the sound of soup, but he only ever had chicken noodle soup.

(I think I might)
Andre sighed. "I guess I'll call up that last place I mentioned. I'll pull up their menu on my phone and you can pick what you like," the adult said, already pulling out the small device.
Met heard the sigh and looked down at his feet, feeling stupid and aloof. Had he upset the adult already?
“O-Okay.” He didn’t even remember what the last one was.
group
Andre looked at Met and frowned. "No need to pout, Met. I'm not upset with you. Just tired…" he said, a lazy grin already returning. It was the truth. He wanted to eat, possibly watch a movie and then sleep until noon at that point. Of course he couldn't do the last of the things listed for an obvious reason. Work.
Met glanced up and him and nodded a little. “Okay. So… didn’t you have dinner already, though? With the woman?” He seemed to want to ask more, but he stayed quiet in risk of talking too much.
group
"Nope, Rei just came over for coffee and such," the adult said shyly. In all honesty, he had planned that she would leave before Met came home. Time got away he supposed.
“Oh. I hope you two had a nice time. You really seem to like her.” He smiled a little at the adult. “You look very nervous.” It wasn’t a question, it was a statement.
group
Andre widened his eyes a tad, and ignored the comment, not wanting to deny or confirm either observation. The man instead finished searching for the menu of the restaurant they were going to order from.
(Skip?)
group
(okayyyy but to where, the next day or…?)
(Yeaaaahhhhhh
Unless you wanted to skip to when they got their food?)
group
(mmm nah, next day. Start at the school or before Met leaves again?)
(Let’s start when he’s about to leave.)
group
Andre for once hadn't been out in the kitchen with a warm cup of coffee. In fact, he hadn't slept all too well. Rubbing at his eyes, the adult stumbled towards the restroom to splash water in his face.
Met was still curled up tightly in a Met-shaped ball on a far corner of the bed. He had gotten really cold in the night and had burrowed as far as he could, pressing against the wall. He wished he had something to sleep with. Like a little bear or a dog that he found little kids had.
group
(a Met-shaped ball aw)
After drying his face, the adult stepped into the kitchen, not seeing the tall teen. Andre sighed and turned on the coffee maker before thinking of something to make the two for breakfast. Perhaps something simple like toasted bagels with cream cheese. Even a bowl of cereal might be fine. Met usually didn't speak up about his opinion on what he liked much either way.
group
(since valentine's day just passed I wanna do a longer time skip after their day to valentine's so we can get the ships going more lolll. Also father son bondinggggg)
Though, Met reflected last night, it'd be quite weird as a teen like himself to sleep with a little doll. However the loneliness of his room had nearly brought him to tears in the darkness of the previous night. He went to bed late and forgot to set his alarm as a consequence.

Yawning, the adult shuffled around the kitchen, splitting a bagel down the center and placing it in the toaster. Noticing Met still wasn't awake, Andre meandered down the hallway towards the boy's room. Opening the door a tad, he noticed said teen still breathing heavy in his sleep. Perhaps his alarm was set wrong? Or not set at all…?
Shaking the thought away, the man set a hand on his son's shoulder lightly. He had no idea how deep of a sleeper the boy was.
(I need to sleep myself actually lol)
(UGH WELL I DO TOO)
Met started violently when he was touched, scrambling around in the sheets with his legs kicking out. The only thing that did was bring him against the wall as his chest heaved heavily, his blue eyes wide. He didn't seem to recognize Andre until a few moments later, but still remained tense.
group
(uGH)
Andre jumped back, the sudden movement startling him. He had nearly gotten kicked in the process. The adult had to take a few deep breaths to make up for the sudden surprise. "I'm sorry to have come in, but you've overslept," the man explained.
(uGh I STAYED UP UNTIL TWELRVW WATCHING PEWDIEPIE)
Met tightened his hands into pale fists around the sheets wrapped around his body. "O-oh. Alright…" He breathed, completely out of breath from his scramble.
(Skip, now?)
group
(mOM NO)
(To the school day? Uh yeah I guess lol)
Andre decided it would be best to give Met a bit of time. He also wanted to be sure the food didn't burn.
(Mom YES)
(Hmmmm no to like Valentine's)
group
(mmm okay lol)
