Boxton x Rodger ( ONE OF MY FAVORITE SHIPS ❗)
_________________________________________

Rodger fixed his bowtie, making sure it wasn't crooked. It had to be perfect after all, he looked over to the bouquet of daffodils. He smiled and picked them up, today was gonna be great. He could feel it.

He walked towards his bedroom door, preparing to leave. He made sure to spray himself with cologne, not too much; not wanting it to be too strong. He let out a nervous sigh and walked out of the door.

Boxton sat at the well lit booth, he was wearing a fancy dark Violet suit, his tie was black and so were his shoes. He nervously squirmed in his seat, I mean after all he was sitting alone in a fancy restaurant. He surely looked lonely.

He took a moment to live in the scenery, it was truly beautiful. Rodger always knew the best spots, he didn't understand why he would waste this good of a date with someone like Boxton.

Boxton played with his tie for a bit before pulling out his phone, preparing to text Rodger. Maybe he ditched him? Boxton could believe it if he did.

The restaurant doors opened, revealing a winded out Rodger. Flowers in hand, Boxton stared at him star struck, he really had come. His lips curled into a warm smile, his chest and face now feeling warm.

Rodger noticed him and began walking towards him, upon reaching Boxton he handed him the flowers. Nervously looking away in the process. Boxton giggled and softly grabbed them, admiring them. He set them down on the ground, making sure that they were safe; as to not being stepped on by anyone that passed.

Rodger took the seat in front of him, Rodger wished he could smile right now because if he could, he'd have the goofiest smile ever right now.

"Sorry for making you wait, I lost track of time."

Rodger apologetically looked away, clearly embarrassed and ashamed that he had kept Boxton waiting so long.

"No, it's fine! I'm just glad you showed up."

Boxton softly said, a loving smile on his lips. Rodger would do anything to see that smile, it was a nice change from his usual nervousness.

A waiter finally came over, it was that strange flutter look-a-like Teagan had mentioned before, she gracefully asked them their orders. Tapping her foot in the process.

Rodger looked at the menu, along with Boxton.

"Hm. I'll take the Sunday roast."

Rodger replied quickly, and looked to Boxton for his reply.

"I'll have the uhm .. Bangers and mash?"

Boxton said, almost as if he was asking. The waiter nodded and left, leaving the two alone once more.

"What have you been up too, Boxton?"

Rodger made sure to say it nicely, instead of his usual serious tone. He wanted to win Boxton's heart, not make him fall asleep with his voice. He had been practicing making his tone lighter and sweeter, hopefully it was working.

"I've actually started going on Poppy's adventures! They can be scary at times, like this one time we went on this elevator called 'regretevator'! It was strange and we met some weird people.– .. sorry, I was rambling again."

Boxton looked down embarrassed, he usually never talked that much. He just felt.. safe. He felt safe with Rodger.

Rodger chuckled a bit, he wanted to hear more of these stories.

"Continue, please."

Boxton looked up at Rodger in shock, he was expected to be judged or anything like that. But no, Rodger actually wanted to listen. He smiled brightly and nodded.

"Well there was this time we met a.. fish, eal.. guy? It was hard to tell what he was made of, he looked like a robot! But anyways— "

The waiter came back, with their food. Smiling before giving Rodger a thumbs up and leaving, Boxton didn't see it and looked down at his food hungrily.

Rodger was confused, he had never met that woman in his life. But it wasn't something dwelling over though, he shook his head and looked in front of him.

Boxton ate quickly but neatly, not wanting to be the only one with food, Rodger started eating too. They chatted about their favorite hobbies, their biggest fears, things they enjoy, etc.

They both knew something for sure though. They were in love.

After at least an hour of staying, they both got up. Boxton offered to pay but Rodger quickly shut that down, paying for both of them. Boxton smiled at this, and grabbed the bouquet as they left.

They both made it home, everyone would be resting or busy by now. They continued to quietly talk to each other as they walked to Boxton's room.

Boxton opened his door and looked back at Rodger, he smiled and slowly got closer, heavily blushing. Rodger froze, his heart beating faster.

Boxton kissed Rodger on his cheek and quickly ran into his room, slightly slamming the door.

Rodger stood there, almost like he was a statue. He clutched his chest and started walking back to his room, he couldn't believe that just happened. Now he really wished he had a mouth.

Date successful.
