"Me either." Rowan lay his head on Damien's shoulder and yawned a bit. "It's far too entertaining."
"Me either." Rowan lay his head on Damien's shoulder and yawned a bit. "It's far too entertaining."
Damien's face went pink at the contact, though he didn't pull away. "I know. Alex Trebek's handsome face keeps me sucked in."
"Very attractive." Rowan laughed. "Sexiest man I've ever seen in my life." He noticed Milo coming over and coaxed him onto the couch with them.
"If I had to date a guy, it'd be him." Damien agreed. He scratched Milo behind the ear. "So fucking hot."
"Same. I thought you wanted to date guys, though?" Rowan asked curiously.
"I mean– yeah. I mean like.. if I was forced to date someone. Be Alex Trebek."
"Ah. I mean, I'm sure I could find someone better, but he'd do."
"If we're looking exclusively in the TV host realm– who's your ideal? Like, who do you think would be the best boyfriend."
"Just TV hosts?" Rowan hummed softly, considering. "Umm… I don't watch a lot of TV shows… who's the guy that does America's Funniest Home videos nowadays?"
"The one right now? Alfonso Ribeiro." Damien responded quickly. Clearly he knew a lot of TV hosts. "That guy?"
"Uh… yeah, him. He's alright." Rowan shrugged. "I'm really not into the age gap, though…"
"That's valid." Damien nodded. He removed his head from Rowan's shoulder. "Hey- Cliff is coming 2:45-ish, right? Just checking, 'cause I need maybe leave a few minutes early to get gas."
"Um… yeah, 2:45. How early are we talking?" Rowan asked nervously.
"I mean- maybe just 2:45, because I have to leave at 3:00 to get there on time, but even then– hold on, I gotta check traffic." Damien got up to get his phone from the kitchen, clearly nervous that he was misjuding his time. After all, he couldn't leave before Cliff got there because of Rowan, but if he left too late he'd be late for work or have to risk running out of gas.
Rowan nodded a bit, watching him walk around. He still had a heavy nervous air around him. "I-I mean… I might be okay alone for a few minutes?"
Damien rubbed the back of his head, pacing as he looked at his phone. "Uh- I mean- okay. I can leave at 2:45 exactly, but that's probably the absolute latest, y'know?" He sighed.
Rowan nodded again. "I… uh… hopefully Cliff isn't late…" He said weakly.
"Yeah. Hick usually shows up on time, though." Damien snorted, coming back to the couch with phone in hand.
"Yeah… hopefully he'll keep that up. What time is it now?" Rowan asked.
"Almost noon-ish." Damien checked his phone. "We've got time, still."
"Alright, cool…" Rowan sighed softly and sat back a bit, still tense.
Damien stretched his arms behind his head, then moved to cross them over his chest. "You feeling okay?"
Rowan shrugged. "Little antsy and nervous, but yeah… m'alright. Don't worry about me, Damien."
Damien leaned back. "That's kinda hard for me to do." He laughed a little bit.
"Yeah…" Rowan laughed weakly. "I'm sure everything will be fine. Hell, maybe he'll even show up early."
