Glenn smiled. "Then I'm glad you learned everything you want to know about me! Um… I have one last question, but if you don't feel like answering I can just… forget about it."
Glenn smiled. "Then I'm glad you learned everything you want to know about me! Um… I have one last question, but if you don't feel like answering I can just… forget about it."
"Go ahead" said Rykah softly, watching him carefully.
"Um… I was wondering if I could see your apartment. Just… uh… I just want us to be on the same level, y'know? And I get it if that's a big thing for you because privacy can be a huge thing for me and I don't wanna step all over your boundaries so," rambling. God, Glenn really needed to figure out how to stop rambling. "Um, yeah." he finished lamely.
Rykah shrugged, "I don't see a problem with that idea, we could head over there for lunch then…" he said.
Glenn's thoughts bumped to a halt. Apparently, his ceaseless rambling hadn't scared Rykah away. Well, that was… good? Maybe? All he knew was that he felt instantly relieved. "Great! Do you have enough food, or do we need to drop by the grocery store?"
"We should be okay" said Rykah reassuringly, watching him.
"Okay," Glenn agreed, brushing some hair off his forehead and catching Rykah looking at him. He cocked his head in amused confusion. "Why're you looking at me like that?"
"Just a habit.." he murmured shyly, refocusing his gaze elsewhere.
"No… um, I like it. It's kinda nice," Glenn said, a light blush spreading across his cheeks.
Rykah blushed too, checking the time as he walked. "Uhm, we should start heading for my place now so we can have lunch on time…" he said softly.
Glenn snapped himself out of his lovey-dovey daze, letting Rykah walk in front of him because he had no idea where he lived. "Lead the way!"
Rykah nodded, pulling ahead to lead the way back.
It wasn't long until they reached Rykah's apartment building. The first thing Glenn noticed was that it was very tall, and the second was that it was only a few blocks away from his own. "Um… which apartment is yours?"
"Near the top" said Rykah, heading inside and towards the elevator
"How's the view from your apartment? Mine's really awful but I've always kinda wanted one that has a pretty view of the sunset," Glenn said, trying to fill the silence as the floor number ticked higher and higher.
"Pretty good actually" said Rykah, finally stepping out, then heading down the hall to unlock a door. Opening it he revealed a simple, spacious room littered with various art supplies, and plants.
Glenn took in the room with wide eyes, moving carefully so he wouldn't disturb anything. "You have a beautiful home, Rykah."
Rykah smiled at the compliment, heading over to the kitchen and digging out a few things to make lich, his tail flicking happily.
Glenn picked his way over to the kitchen table and sat down, smoothing down his sweater to give his hands something to do. It was always a little weird to be in someone else's space, so he tried to distract himself by taking in the art supplies scattered all around.
There were various sets of paints and sketchbooks, and the walls were either covered in papers, or bits of mural.
Glenn found his interest piqued by the murals, turning around in his chair to get a better look at them. It kind of amazed him that Rykah had made this apartment his own. Glenn had been living in his for three years and it still didn't feel like a home.
Rykah didn't pay any mind to the other's interest in his artwork, honestly most of it was done out of boredom.
Once Glenn had looked his fill, he turned back to Ryka, fiddling nervously with the hem of his sweater. The silence was toeing the line between comfortable and awkward. "What are you cooking?"
"Tacos.. don't ask me why, cause I've been doing that since I started" he said softly, laughing.
Glenn laughed along, settling down into his chair. "No, I like tacos. I like most food honestly; if it's in front of me, I'll eat it. I'm just glad one of us knows how to cook."
