Get out

A first

Eddy wasn't fully sure how he felt about Alex leaving but he was happy that the man could finally be free and found such a connection with Victor. It seemed so rare for him to make genuine connections, that meant this was something special between them; Eddy acknowledged.
He hoped this meant he could also be free as well to grow a relationship with Brett. It at least meant he got to spend more time with Brett. Thinking of the man, he couldn't help but look over at him. Carefully he brushed black strands behind his ear, "Brett?"
Eddy spoke softly as he looked at the man before him.

Brett lifted his head to look up at him, a smile forming on his lips.

"Yeah?" he asked softly. He adored Eddy, and he honestly felt so happy and relieved to get to have him to himself. It felt like a dream, honestly. Sure, he'd miss Victor, his best friend for all the years he had been away from Eddy, but if he thought about it, he hadn't really seen Victor quite this happy before with anyone. He had never seen Victor in love like that. So then maybe it was a good thing. Or, not even maybe. It definitely was.

"Just wanted to tell you that you're handsome," Eddy smiled softly at him, he felt goofy saying that but knew it ultimately didn't hurt anything to say. It would only help in the long run, "And I think I would like to take a handsome man such as yourself on a date. If you'd so agree."

Brett chuckled softly, feeling his cheeks warm up slightly.

"Well, how could I possibly say no when asked by an even more handsome AND beautiful man such as you, huh?" he smirked, loving how goofy Eddy was being. "Are you thinking anywhere in particular?"

"Well you see I didn't get that far in the planning," Eddy chuckled as he shook his head, "Just know I want to take you on a proper date, and was hoping you'd say yes. But maybe somewhere with boba."

Eddy laughed softly with a grin, he gently kissed the man's cheek.

"I'd love to go on a boba date with you," Brett hummed softly. "When are you taking me, then? Right now?"

"We could go right now. Would you like that?" Eddy asked as he took Brett's hand to gently squeeze. He couldn't help but grin at him.

Brett squeezed his hand back with an excited smile.

"I would, I'd love that," he hummed softly, lifting Eddy's hand to kiss the back of it.

Eddy felt shy at the kiss, making it feel like there were butterflies in his stomach, "Let's go then. We'll probably have to wear something that kinda conceals our identities though. Just in case."

He spoke gently as he watched Brett.

"We can play dress up AND have fun on a date, can't we?" Brett asked with a chuckle, winking at him. "Let's find something interesting to wear."

Eddy laughed at that, now it was Brett who was being silly and he absolutely loved it, "Well, dress up is fun so I see no issue."

He stood up, intertwining his fingers with Brett's to guide him upstairs.

"Can't wait to see what kind of outfit you can come up with," Brett chuckled softly, following him upstairs. He felt the butterflies stretch their wings in his stomach from the excitement.

"Depends on what you want to see me wear," It was Eddy's turn to wink at Brett!

"Hmmm something to accentuate your beautiful body, for sure," Brett purred back, squeezing his hand. "But you'd be stunning in anything."

Eddy snorted, "So something form fitting but not overtly formal like an evening gown?"

He teased warmly, he didn't quite have a long evening gown but he did have summer dresses. For one reason or another he had them.
