Casey followed silently avoiding looking around at everyone only at his feet. He didn't get out much. When they got to the room he looked around blushing. Once he got his hand back he didn't move, looking at Cairo with a blush. "th-this…is this normal?" He asked referring to the decoration of the room. He had not been lying when he said he didn't go out much, if ever.
Cairo looked at Casey with a gentle nod. “It’s normal in some restaurants when we ask for ‘private’ rooms. Usually it’s smaller and less decorative but it depends on the size and fund of the restaurant too,” he shrugged, making it sound genuine despite knowing well that he wasn’t being absolutely genuine. He had booked the only private room that had this sort of setting and since the waiter was a robot, he didn’t have to risk being embarrassed. He gestured towards the table where two menus were. “Have a seat,” he smiled innocently to Casey though his heart was beating a lot harder against his chest than he thought. It was the environment, he thought. It had to be.
Casey smiled nervously at Cairo with a nod, before sitting down. He didn't immediately pick up the menu and instead sat there quietly admiring the room. His mind went to the robot's programing, which could easily be messed up, he shook his head to try and focus his thoughts. He needed to focus on the now, having a da-lunch…lunch with an attractive 'dove'. For some reason this situation was making him quite nervous, and he hadn't the slightest clue what to do.
Cairo sat there, just across from Casey, with a small smile on his face as he read the menu. “Let’s just order individually, alright? We should probably avoid any Lady and the Tramp kind of situation after all,” he chuckled softly, not looking up from the menu. As he had just donned a mask earlier, his hair was slightly messy which caused a part of it to fall over his face while he was reading through what the restaurant offered.
He wanted to get back to work as soon as possible, yes, but spending this sort of time with someone outside the organization was something he rarely did… and definitely not in this sort of setting either. He soon looked up. “What would you like, Casey?”
Casey was watching Cairo, zoned out. He hadn't been paying attention to what was said, after the whole 'avoiding any lady and the tramp' thing. Which had made him blush a little more to think about it. He saw the hair fall into Cairo's face, and without thinking he reached over and brushed it out of the 'doves' face. Once he realized what he was doing, he froze, his face turning a brighter red.
Cairo’s face, too, grew redder when he realized what Casey had just done. He froze there, simply staring at the other man before he gulped. “Uh…” he didn’t know exactly what to say which was really weird for someone who was a professional at his job. He eventually dropped the strong demeanor, blushing brightly. “I… thanks,” he murmured before turning to the button by the door. “Should I just… order some things for us?”
(Me : This is not a romance. This is not a romance. This is not— This is a romance. This is definitely a romance.)
Casey moved his hand away and looked at the table, "uh- y-yeah" He had completely forgotten about food. He had no idea why he had just done that, normally he didn't think before he acted but, at least then he had some sort of thought. This was just random.
(XD I made it romance <3 cuz my oc is so cute)
Cairo nodded slowly as he set the menu down and stood up, making his way towards the button to call the robot waiter in. Once the ‘waiter’ was stood outside the door, Cairo had ordered some things for the two of them. After he finished ordering everything, he thanked the robot and closed the door, allowing the system to lock the door like earlier.
“I-It said it’ll bring our food and drinks out when they’re finished,” he spoke, surprised as he had never felt his heart beat so fast before. He picked up the two menus and set them aside before he leaned in slightly towards Casey. “Your face is all red…” he murmured, reaching out to place the back of his hand on the other’s forehead “…no fever. Is there something wrong?” He asked, despite his own face as red as a cherry tomato picked straight off its tree.
(I won’t disagree with that. Casey do be pretty cute!)
Casey blushed even more at Cairo touching his forehead, "y-your face is also red…" he muttered, having no idea why he was so flustered all of a sudden. He was so much better with computers than with feelings. He looked down at the table again, not feeling capable of meeting Cairo's eyes.
(funny story, casey was originally like a smooth dominant cocky person..but like..lol not really anymore)
“No that’s impossible,” Cairo chuckled softly before he pulled away, knowing for a fact that he was actually embarrassed which was… rare. So rare in fact that the last time he felt this way was when he met his childhood crush at the age of six. He tried to silence the thoughts in his head, feeling slightly overwhelmed by them. This was going to be a really awkward dat— lunch… an awkward lunch now. “So uh… anything you want to talk about while we’re here…?”
(Ah yes, my dom over-dominated yours XD)
Casey pulled out his phone and sat there for a moment before he looked up at Cairo, "uh we could ask eachother questions?" he asked not putting his phone down. He was simply hacking into the restarants system to see the list of 'private rooms' to see if Cairo was telling the truth or not. And also just to see the robot waiters coding.
(XD you made my dom a sub)
“Sure… not sure where to start though,” Cairo sighed softly as he sat fully on his seat, crossing arms and staring down at the table. “I suppose I should ask what your actual favorite food is?”
In the restaurant’s system, out of the eight ‘private rooms’ in the restaurant, only the biggest one, the one Casey and Cairo were in, was labeled as ‘occupied’. However, the other seven were labeled as ‘booked’ with one of them turning to say ‘occupied’ not long later.
As for the robots, they had codings telling them about general directions, motion sensory cameras, quick AI decision-making chips, and other things ‘server robots’ had.
(Eheheheh~ Sorry not sorry~)
"oh..uh.I don't really have a favorite but I do prefer like mexican or italian. I really like pasta." He thought for a moment, frowning at his phone and putting it away. "my turn, what is your favorite animal" he asked, knowing that this sort of conversation was one that people used to get to know eachother better, although he was mostly using it to pass the time.
(._. poor casey, he is so different than og casey who made so many sexual jokes its sad)
“The owl,” Cairo answered with a small smile. “A bot scary at first but really, they’re great animals,” he nodded along to his own answer before he looked up at Casey. “Favorite alcohol preference if you drink any?”
(I mean… he can still make sexual jokes as a sub? Will not guarantee what happens to him after though—)
"uh, I don't really drink much, but basically whatever I have laying around" he shrugged honestly, "I do enjoy drinking, but doing things alone are not nearly as fun" he said laying his arms on the table. "what about you?"
(oop- totally not me trying to plan a sexual joke)
“I drink sometimes. Usually on nights I don’t have projects lying around or when my seniors don’t throw their workload on me,” he mentioned with a gentle smile. “We should drink together some time. They do say drinking with someone else makes the experience better,” just as he said that, their food and drinks have arrived. After setting down the dishes, the robot waiter set down a bouquet of roses on the table too before it bowed and left, closing the door on its way out and leaving Cairo to stare at the bouquet in slight surprise.
“I guess…” he picked up the bouquet and stood up, moving over to Casey’s side as he handed the other man the bouquet. “…for you I guess…”
(Ooooooh, yup, not me waiting to see it. Nope, not at all-)
Casey just sat there blushing hard. "I uh- uh- th-thanks?" He said quietly. He had no idea what was happening, well he knew what was happening, but not what was happening. "g-getting drinks would be great," he said and muttered, "I am sure better experiences would follow it".
(bro you gonna make me blush, why do i feel my characters feelings o-o cuz like…daaammn)
Cairo hesitated for a moment before he slowly pull the roses away, setting them on the cabinet that was near the door. “We’re just… gonna leave that there for now,” he went back to his seat and nodded softly. “You should start eating before the food gets cold,” he murmured before he started tucking into his gnocchi with creamy chicken.
(I am known to carry a husbando gallery my friend, my characters have this effect on nearly everyone lol)
(oh and, Casey’s dish can be anything of your own choice, just saying)
Casey nodded and started eating his pasta, not paying attention to what it was, being to distracted by the very attractive 'dove' sitting across from him. He looked at Cairo and blushed, before looking back at his food.
“If you wanted to catch a glance, at least do it secretly…” Cairo spoke in a whispered tone as he set down his utensils to look at Casey with a smile. “Is there something on my face, Casey?” He asked, turning his face slightly though knowing that wasn’t the reason the other man was looking at him so often.
"your face…I mean- no!" He said blushing. "th-there is nothing on your face Cairo" he said, liking the way that it sounded when Cairo said his name. He looked off to the side, covering his mouth with his hand.
Cairo had blushed slightly when he heard his name from Casey’s own lips. He turned back to his dish before smiling. “Just call me ‘Kai’… it makes us sound like we’re close,” he mentioned before he continued tucking into his food, not sure why he was so inclined to look up at Casey every three to five seconds. “You can call me ‘Kai’, how about me?” He asked after finishing a bite. With a cheeky smile— “…can I call you ‘mine’?”
Casey's face turned even darker red, if that was even possible at this point, he looked at Cairo. "I can call you K-kai…s-so…uh…" He looked away blushing before he muttered, "yes." his only though was on how smooth that had been.
After the question was answered, Cairo returned to eating very slowly from his plate. It had occurred to him that the temperature in the room had rose drastically… or maybe it was just him. He took a gentle sip of the glass of water beside his plate, feeling nervous for some odd reason. Despite him being the one who had flirted… why was he too so embarrassed by it. “D-Did you want any dessert…?” He asked, turning towards the button near the door in case Casey did want something.
Casey blinked, “are you an option?” He then covered his mouth his face turning bright red at his randomness. ’why did I say that?’ he thought, with general gay panic. “I-I uh…s-sorry” he mumbled, apologizing for his comment that came out of nowhere. He didn’t think it was possible for him to blush this much, but sure enough he was from his own embarrassment mostly.
