"So, do I get the honour of knowing both your names?"

"Oh, sure, I'm Revon and this is...

"Good evening, Gentleman, could I start you all off with a drink?"

"...Jameson!"

"One Jameson whiskey..."

"Wait, what?"

"So, it's Jameson, or?"

"Ok, two Jameson whiskeys."

"Wait, hold on..."

"I'd take a whiskey, while we're at it..." One of the L-twins joins in.

"Stop!" I near shout, silencing everyone at the table.

They all stare at me wide-eyed along with the waitress who shifts awkwardly, pen and notepad still in hand.

"Uh... Just get us a round of Jameson and a jug of water for the table, gracias." Ignacio says calmly before he slowly places a hand over his mouth to hide his smile.

The woman leaves after a weird glance is sent my way and the table is left in silence again.

"So... your name?"

"I swear to-..." taking a deep breath to calm myself, I eventually turn to glare at Stefan. "It's Jameson!"

The start of the meal turned out to be quite awkward. At least, for me it was. Ignacio continued to talk rapidly to us all but had his attention mainly on Luka. Revon listened intently to every word my Spanish friend blurted out, enjoying each topic he jumped to, mainly focusing on his life back at home in Spain.

Unfortunately, his dates attention wasn't entirely focused on him. Since their arrival, both Luka and Louis remained relatively quiet, though Louis seemed to be the one to speak for the two. Ignacio seemed to be a bit confused by this, but it didn't stop him from trying to keep the triple date alive.

Would you even call it a triple date?

Revon and I have yet to establish what we are, though we have expressed our feelings towards one another.

Ignacio seems to be trying to interact with his date, yet said man appears to be uninterested. He looks at Ignacio with a stern but bored expression.

Louis and Stefan... Didn't he call it a business discussion?

As time passes on, my heart slowly breaks for my friend. I can see his enthusiasm for being on his second date slowly dying.

Although Luka looks at him while he speaks, it doesn't seem as though he is listening. And I don't think Ignacio minds. But, whenever Louis speaks up to the table when not whispering heatedly with Stefan, he steals Lukas attention instantly. And this is something that Ignacio does mind, going by the drop in his smile each time.

As our main dishes are taken away and we wait for the desert to come out, I quietly look around the table, noticing the atmosphere has gone from awkward to disastrous.

Stefan is pinching the bridge of his nose with one hand as the other taps a constant rhythm on the seat of his chair closest to me. His bright blue eyes glaring across the table at Louis.

Louis is glaring back but his eyes soften as his twin, which has yet to actually be confirmed, leans closer to him saying something quietly in his ear.

Luka leans away every few moments, eyes flicking towards Revon with that curious expression before returning to Louis.

Revon is watching me with a worried expression as he leans his head on my shoulder, my hand placed back onto his lap as he plays with my fingers. His wide eyes flickering to Ignacio every now and then.
