Saint did not have a choice, he agreed to Zee. It was almost unreal because he was just thinking about helping him with some fashion inputs and now just like luck served on a platter, what he wanted was given to him without making any effort. It was awkward at first, but Zee made sure that Saint kept talking and soon both forgot about every other problem they had and both just like old days started laughing and talking about random things.

Zee suddenly pulled over and parked his car and asked Saint to get down while was doing the same as well.

Saint was confused and asked, "are we there already?"

"What? No... of course not... We are taking the train" Zee said in a matter of fact tone

Saint's face lit up "are we going to the flea market?"

"No, we are not going to the flea market... But, we are going a little outside the city, I know how much you like discounts"

"Oh... Yes ... I do like discounts... But I still hate shopping... Especially from the experience from last time carrying those heavy bags back to the hotel"

"Yes, that was a pain. That's why I am going to control myself this time and not go crazy like last time and just buy one set of clothes for each of us. Nothing less and nothing more"

"Where are we going by the way? Wait? Outside the city? Discounts? Don't tell me we are going to La Valee"

"That's right... We are going to La Valee" Zee said and bought the train tickets and pulled Saint by his hand and led him to the platform.

They hopped onto the train and Zee kept the rapport going. "You've been to La Valee before?"

"No ... But I've heard people talking about that place, It never interested me... You know,"

"Yeah yeah I know, did you have breakfast yet?"

"Er ...no, what about you?"

"No... We are getting off the next stop and grabbing a sandwich"

"Sandwich?" Saint's mouth watered at the thought of that but still, he said "but you paid for the tickets to La Valee... We ~"

"That's fine ... I am hungry ... I wanna go ... Is that okay?" Zee tilted his head and gave a sweet smile which made said melt like butter.

As promised Zee bought Saint his favorite sandwich and some fries, Saint felt like all this was so natural, like how he teases Zee for every little thing and Zee smiling like Saint is the cutest being on earth, Saint feeding Zee some fries and Saint drinking the chocolate milkshake out of Zee's cup, like nothing was sketchy between them and the have been together for years.

Zee was slowly cracking Saint's shell and was helping him become the Saint he once was. It was all part of Zee's plan to sweep Saint off his feet and woo him, until now it was working well. Zee was trying to show Saint what it means to have the best boyfriend ever, even though there was an unlabelled thing between them now.

If someone asked Saint right at this moment about how he felt he would say "I am happy"

"What did you say?" Zee asked curiously

"What?" Saint asked snapping out of his trance

"You said something just now"

"I said that out loud... Oh. .haha .. sorry I was just thinking about something"

"I hope you were not thinking about me"

"Pfft, definitely not about you," Saint said while rolling his eyes which again made Zee smile at the cute creature.
