(Lol. Cool!)

Devon chuckled a bit at his fish-like gaping. She nodded her head slowly, a light blush appearing in her cheeks. “I would love that. When are you free?”

@blue_topaz

She said yes. Sebastian’s face was roughly the same hue as a tomato at this point because— she said yes. “I- I’m free tomorrow night. You?”

@blue_topaz

“I… don’t have a car,” he admitted quietly. “I take public transit everywhere. Can’t afford otherwise. So it’s probably a better idea that we meet there— as much as I’d like to pick you up. Does 6:30 work?” He hesitated, a question on the tip of his tongue.

@Imperfect_Autumn group

(What’s his question, though???)

Devon thought for a moment. She would get off of work at four, so that would give her some time to get ready. “That would work. Do you have somewhere in mind that you wanted to go to?”

@blue_topaz

(Lol I’ll ask it right now. It’s not that big)

Sebastian pondered it for a moment. “I- I don’t go out much, is there anywhere you know? There’s a nice steakhouse sort of near here.” Again, he hesitated, before speaking up again. “Just- What are your boundaries? I don’t want to make you uncomfortable, or accidentally overstep..”

Devon’s mouth formed a small “o” at his question. No one ever asked her that, they all just assumed she was fine with whatever.

”It has been almost four years, after all,” they would say. ”You should be fine by now.”

“Oh… Well, I don’t really like to be touched, which I’m sure you’ve noticed by now. And… Um, I guess just ask me if something is okay? I’ve gotten a lot better with being touched lately—“ Mostly thanks to you. “but it’s still nice to be asked, you know?”

@blue_topaz

(PREACH)

“Yeah, I completely understand,” he said sincerely, rubbing the back of his neck. “I’ll be really careful, I promise. And please don’t hesitate to tell me if I’m making you uncomfortable.”

@Imperfect_Autumn group

Devon gave him a small smile and nodded. “And you don’t have to be afraid to ask. If I say no, it’s not anything you’ve done, it just means that I’m not ready yet,” she said softly.

@blue_topaz

(Lmao)

Sebastian nodded, evidently relieved. “I- thank you. I just.. I’ve never actually done this before. So, sorry if I’m nervous.”

@Imperfect_Autumn group

Devon blinked at him, raising her eyebrows slightly. “Oh. You haven’t? You’ve never… dated before?” she wondered, surprised. Surely someone would have wanted to date you…

@blue_topaz

Sebastian shook his head, shame practically written across his features. “Who would have wanted to date me? I wasn’t.. desirable.”

@Imperfect_Autumn group

“I would have,” Devon said before she could stop herself. She blushed deeply and looked at the ground. Gosh, why did her mouth have to work before her brain did sometimes?
