this is why i don't like being in the spotlight.  too much attention's on me thanks to you practically shining like a beacon-

lastaIive

it's just not something i'm used to  [  his red scarf he wore was slightly tugged on by his index finger,  a habit he grew to have whenever he felt uneasy.  times like this made him grateful he always wore his pair of tinted shades,  his gaze avoiding the other  ]  the praise i've always received from others never felt that it was meant for me.  as if i was a shadow of someone greater than me

ouch,  you'll scold an already injured man like me when i look like this﹖  [  he feigned a hurt expression while looking at the other with a supressed smile as he tried to keep up his act  ]  your heart truly can be cold sometimes

always the type to tease me at every chance aren't you sunshine﹖  [  his head was rolled to get rid of the stiffness in his neck  ]  and hopefully i wasn't snoring too loud for you

⠀⠀  ৎ ﹡    ៹⠀ @lastaIive ꓹ⠀⠀i know. ⠀[  he briefs a beam.  ] ⠀i couldn't help but stare,  you sleep so cutely after all.  i was hoping to tease you a bit but then you woke up..  it's truly a shame.

haha,  i'm only joking  [  he replied while adjusting the way he sat on the chair he was on to be more comfortable  ]  i wasn't expecting you to be the first thing i saw when i woke up.  it's a welcoming sight though

i'm starting to realize how similar our outfits look-  did you do this on purpose when we went out to find some new clothes for me﹖

lastaIive

oh﹖  are you saying this from personal experience﹖  [  he couldn't help but playfully ask with a small smirk,  his head turning to face emiliano's in the process  ]

⠀⠀  ৎ ﹡    ៹⠀ @lastaIive ꓹ⠀⠀nonsense.  anyone would fall for you.  even if you weren't wearing these types of outfits..  that's how charming you are as a person. ⠀[  he stood behind dorian,  a pleasant smile on his lips while his hand had casually slid from his arm⸺  then to his waist.  seemingly pleased.  ]

[  dorian's gaze flickered back to his own reflection in the full-length mirror in front of them,  his head tilting to the side  ]  only because of the outfit you chose

the ravenette's laughter could somewhat be heard over the loud music within the establishment as he talked with a few of the patrons at a table with a drink in his hand.  it was his break after all,  so why not relax for a bit,  is what he reasoned to himself.  though,  what he failed to notice in his somewhat inebriated state was how close one of the patrons next to him was getting,  their arms hugging one of his own.  that's probably why emiliano was closing in on where the small group was now-〝  hm﹖  oh,  hey there boss.  you should join us﹗ "

the individual silently scoffed as they were shoved away,  but dorian didn't seem to notice as his attention was now directed towards emiliano.  he smiled,  that being a rare sight to see on the ravenette,  before a chuckle later came from him〝  i'm taking your advice,  you did say i should take breaks more often after all " he replied as his head instinctively leaned against the other's hand that rest over his neck〝  never knew how good the drinks really were here until i tried a few thanks to them " he added,  referring to the individual and their friends who were also sat with them

〝  look at someone that way with those eyes of yours and they'll no doubt fall for you within seconds "

his gaze remained away from emiliano's,  not wanting to look the other in the eye at the moment.  he didn't want to get his hopes up,  but the other's words were starting to make himself believe that he really was wrong〝  what do you mean by that﹖ " he questioned,  a hint of confusion being heard in his voice

〝  because i'd have no chance " came his simple reply as he took off his tinted shades and put them on the other〝  there's people out there that'd be better options to go for than me anyways "

〝  a pretty low-bar tactic if you ask me,  especially when it's you we're talking about " zircon's eyes only rolled in response before chuckling himself.  but he wasn't going to deny though that he was curious about these other ideas the other potentially had up his sleeve〝  and what was it that you had in mind huh﹖ "
