Lost Memories [Pantalone x Dottore] Season 2

15.

After the new year they did not hold much contact at all other then talk after meetings for a brief moment. Now, at a meeting they are listening yet Pantalone has his hand on Dottore his tigh gently carressing it with his thumb while Dottore tries to avoid this all together because they are at a meeting and with Pantalone doing this he cannot focus; in all honesty it just makes him want to slam the other on the table and make use of his body right then and there.
Feeling Pantalone his hand move to Dottore his inner tigh knowing Pantalone is doing this on purpose so he himself moves one of his hands beneath the table to remove Pantalone his hand who has a smile on his face acting all innocent like he always does.
The end of the meeting is nearing and Pierro just looks at Pantalone having to ask something as it would be a simple question that holds not much of importance "will you be here for the next meeting?"

Dottore stops removing Pantalone his hand from him and just holds it now staring at the other...what was that supposed to mean? Why wouldn't he be going? "I will not, no" The Regrator spoke and holds Dottore his hand back beneath the table "I will be going to Liyue to visit my brother"

Pierro gives a single nod and gestures for the others that they can leave which they did.
Dottore would continue to look at Pantalone having his brows furrowed beneath the mask "why? He thinks you are dead, no?"

Pantalone turns to look at Dottore before he stands up and walks away as Dottore follows him and when he catches up to walk besides him he would continue to talk "it is family matter" he spoke and enters a carriage with Dottore who helps him inside before sitting down but seeing Dottore sit across from him he pats the spot besides him.

The doctor saw him pat and he would stand and sit down besides Pantalone unknowingly obeying to the other
"we were married at one point, Baizhu was my family sort of at one point in time"

Pantalone hums softly and takes hold of Dottore his hand again starting to play with the other his fingers "I do not want to tell you that is all. It just had gotten a little to personal. Yes I want to surprise him with me being alive still but-...nevermind" He sighs and looks down upset "Do not concern yourself over it...can you take care of isabella for me? You can stay in my home for the time that I am gone"

Dottore lets the other play with his fingers and they still are not together. They would only hold hands because they wanted to, they would sometimes flirt with one another but that was about it. "She is better of with Lucio and The Captain" he sighs and rests his head back against the backrest.

"Perhaps...but I am asking you am I not? So do you accept yes or no?" The man asks and once arrived at the bank the both of them would step outside and enter the building as he sees a couple giving Nadia who still is Pantalone his secretary as she has returned to her job after Pantalone contacted her.
Pantalone and Dottore walk over yet when Nadia sees the two men she is very relieved since this couple sure are hand full "what is the meaning of this? Why are you shouting at my secretary?" Pantalone asks and watches the couple look at Pantalone silently inspecting him up and down which the other (Dottore) found very odd. "My office ...now" seeing how the couple was nearly shouting at Nadia he did not want to discuss it in public and they all would go to Pantalone his office together while Dottore sits on the couch a littke away from the office yet close enough so he can listen in and keep a eye on the couple yet they do sort off have a resemblance with Baizhu and Pantalone. "Please speak what your issue is-..."

The woman looks around the office before she looks back at Pantalone almost seeming annoyed and offended "Don't you remember us?"

Pantalone lets out a deep sigh and he does...but he has treated them like strangers since they deserve that treatment "Why should I remember you?"

"Dont be like that...we are your parents-..." the man said but he swiftly was taken aback by what Pantalone said...both of them are.

"The parents that abandoned me and my brother?! As children?! No-...I do not know why I should remember filth like you two...you two disgust me" he spoke and he switched very fast with the tone of his voice which first sounded normal, calm and collected yet now he is shouting at them. Dottore watches the interaction go down and the parents sure had a lot of nerve to show up now after all those years so he stands up and walks over to the desk standing by Pantalone his side leaning over the table having his hands placed onto it "why did you come vack all of a sudden?" He knows it is not his place to interfere yet he is curious and he asked this because he is sure Pantalone would like to know this as well.
