Thomas laughed and kissed her cheek, "Of course." He said, "And if he does, he might end up dead" he said, kissing her head lightly before looking towards the kitchen, "So, Rez, what type of guys you into? I know quite a few single people who would be interested in you"
He scrunched his mouth to the side in concentration, setting down the pizza and sitting down "basically you, but since my sister has clearly shown that you're off limits, anyone, who do you have in mind?" He smiled at them both.
"Ah not so innocent now." She smiled and started to eat. Listening in on to their conversation as she did so "Raz is I to any hot guy."
"Am not, have you seen some celebrities lately? That be getting old and ugly."
Thomas laughed, "I'll see what I can do, Rez" he said, pulling out his phone and pursing his lips, scrolling through his contacts, "Ah, how about him?" He showed a picture of an average height man, decently fit with a soft smile on his face. His thick brown hair was a bit of a mess, but in a cute way, and his black square glasses were slightly askew
"not bad actually," Raz said in amusement and intrigue. "He cute, in a nerdy way. When is he free, For dinner or coffee?"he asked "fer slow down, you look like a wolf scarfing down prey."
"I fell like one. I haven't eaten all day." She offered some some Raz who shook his head no and then to Thomas "want some?"
Thomas accepted the slice with a thank you and took a bite, opening "His name's Conner" he Informed Rez, "Wrote a book, actually. Mind if I give him your number?"
"pleas do! And my house address, my shirt size, my favorite movie, my account number, all if it!" Raz said happily "eeeee imma have a new friend yay! Never leave this kid fer, do you understand me? This kid is match maker sent from heven!"
She smiled happily at her brother and leaned against Thomas's shoulder "calm down Raz, you haven't even met the guy and you already look like you want him to move in."
"And when did you meet Superman over here?" Raising an eyebrow and pointing at Thomas "and you already look like you've been married happily for 3 years and loves not stopping either." He winked as ferris blushed
Thomas ducked his head, blushing and scratching the back of his head, "I mean, he's not wrong" Thomas chuckled and kissed her cheek happily. He texted Conner quickly and slid his phone in his pocket, taking another bite of pizza. Not ten seconds later, Rez' phone rings with a message
//hey is this Rez?//
Raz looked at his phone, then back at the couple "he texted me…..holy craaaaaaaap. what do I do what do I do Fer what the hell do I do?!"
Fer took the phone from him and texted back
//Yep, Hi I'm Raz, nice to meet you, wanna go for coffee some time? Btw your friend Thomas gave me your number, I'm not a stalker….//
"your welcome," she said simply as she passed the phone back.
"you told him I wasn't a stalker? you jerk." He smiled and playfully slapped her in the arm "come on come on please say yes!" he bounced in his seat as he waited
Thomas grinned and put an arm around Ferris' shoulders, eating his pizza with the other.
//haha yeah, I'd love to grab coffee sometime. Are you free around 2?//
Thomas took a sip of water, "Just so you know, irl he's super shy and submissive. I have to admit, it's adorable. But don't tell him that. He gets all mad when I call him adorable"
she glanced up at Thomas with mock shock "Should I be worried if a cute boy walks by? Raz, I think you could have landed him if I didn't." she smiled and slipped her hand under his shirt and around his torso.
"Told ya," he smiled and winked as he texted back
//2 sounds great! Any coffee place preferences?//
"did he say yes?" Ferris asked
"Gotta a date at 2." He jumped up and started to grab his jacket "mind locking up after I leave? you know where the keys are."
Thomas laughed and kissed her, "Don't worry. I might take a peek, but you're better looking than any of them" he kissed her cheek and smiled before looking up at Rez, "Hey, psst. You didn't hear this from me, but if you have any pet of any kind at your house, he will agree to come over in a heartbeat." Thomas winked.
//how about the one on 8th? They're pet friendly, so there's always dogs in there☺️//
"speaking of pets," he smiled as he showed them the text
//Perfect! I can brink my two huskies!! Mind if my sister and Thomas come along?//
"Take a peek? She said in feigned disbelief "unbelievable" she stood and went to the back to find the keys to the restaurant
"smooth…"Raz said to Thomas as he smiled at him "and thanks, for setting this up and for loving my sister, she hasn't gotten that from an outsider yet, and I can tell you love her very, very much." He smiled gratefully at him
Thomas chuckled as she walked off, turning back to Rez and nodding, "I do" he said, clapping him on the shoulder, "I'll take care of her. I promise" he smiled.
Conner's eyes widened, //hUSkiEs aRe mY FavOriTe dOg! And yeah, thats cool. Wait, what does Thomas have to do with your sister?// he was thoroughly confused
"Oh I'll make sure you do, or I'm finding you and tearing you to pieces." boyish charm aside, Raz was dead serious on his statement
// they're dating, incredible isn't it? So we'll meet you there? look for the cute dude with the two dogs ;))
"Raz stop threatening him," Ferris called from the kitchen, jingling keys in her hand "found them, now are we going or are we just showing up late, causing this poor boy to think that you stood him up?" Ferris smiled as she nudged everyone out the door "lets go."
Thomas chuckled at Rez' threat. Before Ferris could push them all the way out, Thomas grabbed his shirt and backpack, pulling them on and wincing slightly when his wings were contained. He wrapped an arm around Ferris' shoulders, "Are we stopping by your place first then? So you can grab the dogs?"
With a jolt, Conner realised he should probably get ready for said date. He ran to his room, tearing through his clothes until he found something appropriate. A tight White button up and equally fitting black pants. He quickly gelled his hair and put a light dusting of makeup on, along with mascara and eye-liner to really make the green in his eyes pop. All that done, the boy fed his cat, hugged it goodbye, then ran out of the door, nervous as all hell
Raz nodded "not far, we can walk" After a ten-minute walk they reached the apartment and went to his room "meh babies!!" the two Huskies ran up to them and tackled him the ground "alright alright off!" He smiled and introduced Reyla and Loki " I have a small obsession for Prince Loki of Asgard," he said with a slight smile. Clipping the leashes and grabbing some treats, they went back out and walked to the coffee shop.
"Small is my playlist on Spotify, he has a shrine for the guy." Ferris whispered to Thomas "Hey, you met him right? or you know people who know him, maybe we can meet him!" she jumped up at the thought "ok, I have a slightly smaller shrine, but that's because he stole my helm."
"Ya, stole it back." he looked pointedly at her as they walked on
Thomas laughed, "Yeah I do know him" he admitted, "Thor and I are pretty close, so I kinda have to know him" he admitted, sliding his hand into Ferris' as they walked. They soon arrived at the coffee shop and Thomas let Rez go in first so he could find Conner.
Conner was at an empty four seater booth with hooks for leashes and two dog beds underneath the table. He kept checking his appearance in his phone screen, his leg juggling up and down nervously
"Oh you are so taking me to meet him," she said as she entered the coffee shop
Raz looked around but didn't find anyone that looked like a 'connor' "Scuse me, do you know anyone by the name of connor?" he asked a man with two dog beds under his seat "I'm supposed to meet him here around 2"
Ferris watched silently from the doorway "Raz you idiot." she smiled but said nothing
Conner smiled, "That would be me" he said, his heart pounding nervously. He saw the dogs and immediately broke into a grin, "Hi!" His nervousness seemed to melt away as he pet the huskies, "And who are these adorable babies here?" He asked to no one in particular.
Thomas chuckled and slid into the booth across from Conner, shaking his head slightly
Ferris sat next to him and smiled at her brother nodding encouragingly
Raz nodded back and knelt beside him "this one is Reyla, my little queen, and this handsome boy is Loki. Say hi you two." the dogs barked and started to lick Connor's hand. "I'm sorry for not seeing you earlier, I'm Raz and its a delight to meet you." he held out a hand
Thomas slid their hands together and pretended to be busy with the menu but was really watching them.
Conner looked at him and smiled, "Likewise" he said, shaking his hand before scooting over so he'd have room to sit. His heart was still pounding, but less so now that the dogs were laying in the bed and one was pressed up against his legs, giving him a sort of confidence.
"stalker" Ferris whispered as she did the same, scooching closer to Thomas and rested her head on his shoulder
he sat next to him and looked under the table at the dogs "Loki likes you." He said with a smile as a waitress came by
"what do you want," she asked blankly, chewing her gum loudly, looking around at the table, eyes settling on Thomas with a wink and then on Ferris with disgust
Thomas frowned as he noticed the look, but he didn't want to ruin Conner's date, so he just smiled and said, "A large coffee for me please. Black. And whatever she wants" he said purposefully, kissing her head lovingly.
Conner noticed all of this and hid an, admittedly, adorable giggle behind his menu, watching the interaction
"Hot chocolate please," she said blushing and snuggling into Thomas
"and for you two," she asked Conner and Raz, purposely flicking her hair flirtatiously
"Green tea," Raz said, not bothering with manners "and would you stop looking at him like he's candy, he's clearly with someone" pointing at Thomas and ferris
"Alright but he's not," she winked at conner, bending down towards him
"ya he is" he wrapped his arm around his shoulders and looked her challengingly "our drinks?"
OOH YAS REZ YOU GO BOI//
Thomas hid a laugh behind his menu, trying to be quiet as he watched this unfold
Conner flushed slightly, though he made no attempt to remove the arm, actually leaning into the touch, "Just a small coffee please. Two sugars" he smiled at her sweetly
