After an hour driving, theyve finally reached their destination. Saint was excited AND hungry. After finding a parking spot, Perth pulled off and they both went out of the car.
This restaurant that they chose to date has a private room in which people have to knock before given the permission to enter. If staffs defy this rule, theyll immediately be removed from their post. This restaurant have 3 policies. Good Service, Great Food, and Best Privacy. Perfect for someone like Perth and Saint. A couple that didnt publicly come out yet. They wanna be careful with their image.
They do wanna come out and clean, because a lot of people ship them on their previous series and in real life. But scrolling through the internet, some people actually have different perspectives in life.
Some of their staff found out that others don't want Perth and Saint to date in real life because they ship Saint more with someone else. Same with Perth. It was becoming a headache. So they chose to hide this. Although they know theyll suffocate themselves soon.
After asking the receptionist for a room, they were lead into one of the best rooms. It was spacious and the table was huge. They needed it. Since both of them love to eat. A lot.
One staff handed them the menu.
After ordering the usual foods they order and some deserts, they were left alone.
They were sitting beside each other. Cuddling. While waiting for the food, Saint thought of how to tell Perth the news he just received earlier. It may be for work but right now, it just doesn't feel right. Because he's dating someone. And it's a guy.
Saint fell quiet. Didn't move an inch.
Perth noticed something wrong with his man. Softly he asked while Saint is wrapped around his arms.
Perth: "Babe, what's wrong?"
The ever shy Saint still couldn't get used to the "babe" stuff. And he started blushing.
Saint: N-nothing's wrong.
Perth: You are always so quiet since I've picked you up from your work. Did something happen?
Saint's heart jolted. The question is so near but he can't bring himself to tell Perth the truth.
Saint: N-nothing. You're overthinking again.
Perth: Saint. Remember what I said the night you said yes to me?
Saint went silent. He knows. He remembers. He doesn't want Perth to stress out over this. No matter how much Perth act as a matured adult, he is still a kid. Saint slowly opened his mouth.
Saint: Y-yes. N-not to keep secrets from you.
Perth: And I won't do that to you too. I'm gonna be honest with my entire being for you.
Saint: But you've been fidgety and sometimes you space out when we're together for the past month. Aren't you the one hiding something from me?
Perth: I am not. I space out because im sleepy. Always. I work and study, especially because I just entered college. Im adjusting to new people and friends. Didn't you went through the same thing I'm going through right now?
Perth said calmly as he was explaining his side to Saint.
Saint then figured out. He was overthinking. He is a kid for fuck's sake why do I feel like I'm expecting too much from him? I'm the adult. I should be the one to adjust.
Saint: I-I'm sorry. I was just probably thinking too much.
Perth: Now that I've answered you, would you mind telling me now what's bothering you?
