"How the hell am I supposed to get this in? My deadline is tonight and I just don't have enough time." James mutters as he sits back. He just wanted to strangle something. Specifically himself.
I NEED GAY ROMANCE (1 on 1 yee) (closed)
Sebastian's eyes flickered sideways to the boy sitting at the table next to him upon hearing him mutter something. Shaking his head to snap out of it, he forced himself to look away again, letting his eyes fall shut. His mother's shouts still echoed in his head, making him want to clamp his hands over his ears and forget everything.
(should Bastian spill his drink or something?)
Sure, that would work.//
James was tempted to throw the computer, but it was his besdt computer, for both hacking and playing videogames. He sighs and settles down, tapping his finger against the table as he tried to think.
Sebastian's eyes were glued shut, he was too preoccupied with trying to shake the memory of the morning from his head to notice his elbow slipping slightly on the table.
His eyes flew open when he felt something bump against his arm, hearing a sloshing sound and a thump.
James looks up and sighs, before starting to get ready to leave when he heard a few people snickering. They were looking at a boy, rather cute at that, and talking under their breath. He walks over to the kid. "Hey, you okay. Come on. Let's get this cleaned up." He offers a hand.
Sebastian's head jerked up, eyes meeting those of a guy about his age. And a cute one, too. "Yeah– uh– sorry." He took the hand, standing up and grabbing a few paper towels to cclean the mess with.
"No problem." He chuckles and helps clean up the mess. He hums softly as he does so and smiled at the other. "What's your name?" He asks as he throws away some of the soaked paper towels.
Sebastian glanced up at the boy, finished cleaning up the spill. “I’m— I’m Sebastian. Thanks for—“ he gestured to the clean floor “helping me. What’s your name?”
James glances up and smiles. "My name is James. It's a pleasure meeting you, Sebastian. And not a problem. Always gotta help out somewhere." He chuckles.
Sebastian smiled and stood up. “Nice to meet you too.”
He chuckles and offers a hand to shake. "Let's go get you another drink, yeah?" He chuckles.
A blush immediately rose to Sebastian’s freckled cheeks. It’s not a date you idiot! You literally spilt your drink! Shaking the outstretched hand and internally wincing at how weird his hands must seem, he stammered out a response. “Y-yeah, okay.”
He smiles at the other before standing and throwing away the soaked paper towels. "Alrighty." He walks back to the counter. "What do you want?" He asks curiously.
“Oh— you don’t have to pay— it was my fault—“, Sebastian stammered, rummaging around in his pockets for his wallet. “I’ll pay for you.”
He shakes his head. "It's alright. I've got this." He chuckles.
"I don't want to inconvenience you–" Sebastian protested, tossing his wallet anxiously from one hand to the other. He was sure his cheeks were still tinged with pink.
James shakes his head. "Don't worry about it." He chuckles lightly.
Sebastian gave in, slipping his wallet back into his pocket. "Thanks.", he told James, slightly flustered at the fact that a very cute boy was buying him a drink.
(How old is james?)
20//
James nods and smiles. "No problem." He chuckles softly, looking at the other before turning his attention to the woman who was going to take their order.
(okay that works, since Sebastian is 19 turning 20)
"Uhh, could I please have a white chocolate mocha?", he asked tentatively, wringing his hands.
(also out of curiosity, how do you picture Sebastian?)
"Of course." He says softly, smiling warmly.
Hmmm. I'm not sure. Brown hair? Tallish? Bright colored eyes. Something like that.//
(You’re not far off, he has bronzey blonde hair and caramel-y eyes. L o t s of freckles. I picture James with curly town hair and dark eyes)
Sebastian stood to the side while James ordered, blushing slightly.
Hehe. James is a taller figure with rusty red/brown hair and really green eyes.//
James hands over the money and the woman nods before giving the order to other workers.
(Oof I was way off)
Sebastian fidgeted, slightly nervous. “Do you— do you go to university near here, or…?”
He chuckles and shakes his head. "I know this sounds really nerdy, but I already finished highschool and most of college." He taps his head. "Photographic memory really helps." He chuckles.
Sebastian shook his head. “No that’s really cool! What did you major in?”
"Technology. Mostly stuff for the government." He chuckles, placing a hand on his lips. "Top secret."
The barista gave him his drink, and Sebastian turned back to James. “Whoah, really?” They began to move back towards their tables.

James chuckles and nods. "Yeah. It pays pretty well for someone right out of college."
