Author's Note: I'm SOOOOORRRRRYYYYYY! I know it's been way too long, so I applaud you if you are still interested in reading this. I don't really have an excuse, apart from the fact that I've had test coming out my butthole. Stupid school!
Anyway, here's the next chapter.
Enjoy :)
Dave bounced his leg nervously, hands wringing in his lap. He looked up expectantly at the door when he heard the bell ding, but was disappointed when a short business woman walked into the lima bean.
Blaine had set him up on a date, just like he said he would. He'd never been so nervous.
He's just a boy. You'll be fine. Just stay calm.
"Uh, excuse me?" A smooth voice said, snapping Dave out of his daydream. Dave looked up and was met with a pair of bright, sparkling green eyes. "Are you Dave?"
"Um, yeah. You must be Sebastian." Dave stood up and held out his hand. Sebastian smiled and shook his hand firmly. Dave felt a spark of electricity shoot up his arm at the touch, and blushed when his eyes met Sebastian's.
"Yep, that's me." The taller boy said.
Dave stepped back and, as discretely as possible, took in the man in front of him. Sebastian was wearing a pair of dark skinny jeans, converse sneakers and a tight navy blue t-shirt. He also had what looked to be a leather jacket folded over his arm. He was quite tall, and slim but with muscular arms. Dave smiled to himself, Sebastian was definitely attractive.
"So, did you want to, uh, grab some coffee?" Dave said, bringing a hand up to rub nervously at the back of his neck.
"Well, we are in a coffee shop." Sebastian smirked before nodding and turning to walk to the counter. Dave walked over at his side, shoulder's bumping occasionally due to their close proximity.
The wait in line was only a little bit awkward. Both stood in silence, occasionally looking up to smile at each other.
"I'll have a caramel macchiato, and you?" Sebastian said, attention turning from the barista to Dave.
"I'll just take a latte thanks."
Dave reached for his wallet, but Sebastian stopped his arm from moving and handed the barista some notes.
"We'll split one of those biscotti, too thanks. Keep the change."
Sebastian winked at Dave and then moved to wait for their order to be made. Dave felt his cheeks flush and cursed himself. Since when did he blush?
They got their drinks and then went and sat at a small table in the back corner of the shop. Dave looked out the window next to them, the beauty of the view absolutely stunning.
Sebastian looked at Dave across the table. The man was absolutely gorgeous. The warm light coming in from the window splashed across Dave's face, and magnified his beauty.
"So, Dave. Tell me about yourself." He said, smiling when Dave shook out of his daze.
"Uh, well, I go to McKinley. I'm line-backer on the football team. I like to sing, but I'd never have the balls to join the Glee club. There's not much to me, really."
Sebastian smirked to himself, something like affection shining in his eyes.
"What about you?" Dave said, taking a sip from his cup.
"Sebastian Smythe. Student at Dalton Academy. Member of the Dalton Academy Warblers. Aspiring artist, although I would never admit it to anyone I knew at school." Both boys chuckled. "That's it really. I'm not a very interesting person."
"I wouldn't say that." Dave said, trying to sound light and teasing. His nerves were getting the better of him though.
Sebastian just smiled and looked at Dave over his coffee cup.
"So," Sebastian said, reaching over and breaking the biscotti in half before handing one half to Dave. "How do you know Blaine and Kurt?"
"Uh," Dave blushed and took the biscotti, biting of a small piece and thinking. "It's kind of a long story."
"Well, I suppose it's a good thing we have a couple of hours then." Sebastian smirked.
Dave told him about dating Kurt, and about being a big closet case. He told him about the break-up and the hospital. He didn't realise he'd started crying until a hand reached up and wiped a tear off of his face.
"Sorry, you probably didn't want to know all that. I kind of got carried away."
"It's alright." Sebastian said sympathetically, taking Dave's hand almost hesitantly. "Come on, let's get out of here. There's no one home at my place. We could go and watch a movie."
Dave smiled and nodded, wiping his tears away with his free hand. The boys grabbed their now empty coffee cups and put them in the bin on the way out of the Lima Bean. Dave let Sebastian lead him to his Aston Martin and Dave made a sound of approval in his throat before getting into the passenger seat.
It's a good thing I took the bus, he thought as he fastened his seatbelt.
"I hope you like Disney movies... I have a stash of them in my bedroom." Sebastian looked slightly embarrassed, and Dave smiled.
"Sounds perfect."
Seems like things are looking up for Dave :)
I know that my Sebastian is a bit out of character, but in this story he's nice and not chasing after Blaine because I said so!
