A dozen scraped clean plates that once held sushi in a variety, stacked in a pile and that was for a warmup.
'You're asking ME for romantic advice?' Roman had both hands flat on the table, making a point as to not crack up at his Leo with chopsticks in his nose.
'You seem to excell at it...you have HIM.' Dean noted, also ignoring Leo's antics for his own sanity's sake. 'The guy you kept alive by feeding him raw meat and canned cat food.
A deep blush appeared on Romes' face along with a heavy lidded lovestruck gaze.
'I'm not great with this Dear Abby type of thing.'
'Give it a whirl.'
'I...baby, no, get back here.' Roman called to Leo who'd wandered over to the massive indoor fountain, decorated with dragon carvings and was attempting a swim.
'Yeesh, what's wrong with him? Besides the obvious.'
'He went crazy after what happened.' Roman was smart enough to lower his voice while among humans. 'If YOU got stuck with lion paws and tail, you'd be wacko too.'
'Maybe I already am.' Dean smiled and Romes grinned back, nodded.
'Yeah, our crumbled cookie kook.'
'Not everyone's, not HIS and there's my problem.'
'I suggest quit trying to seduce,stop trying to force things to happen and just ride where the flow takes you.'
'You would bring nature references into this.'
Another ten plates of sushi emptied, another duo of thoughtful expressions.
'I didn't expect Leo...Leo, get off the chandelier before you break it!...he sort of happened, in my life and after that-'
'Yeah but you two only recently met this YEAR. I've known Seth back when I did his homework for him so he could cut class and hang out in the parking lot smoking.'
'You believe you've waited long enough.'
'I Believe-' Dean began and Roman grinned again. 'i've waited TOO long and I refuse to wait anymore. I'm not about to compete with Justin, I'm not about to compete with ANYONE, I'll just take what's mine and screw it, literally.'
'That may make things worse, my brother.'
'It's bad enough as is so I don't care.' Dean went into his pout which always was a sight and a half to behold.
'But first we need to rid our lives of that creep Corey.'
'I'll not mind a bit when that jerk is gone.'
'Of course at this moment, much more important matters at hand.'
'More food?'
'More food.' And Romes called for dozens more plates as Leo examined the floor in a childish manner and Dean abandoned eating to contemplate.
Food for thought.
Plenty of treats to place in his mouth.
Hotdog taking top spot on his list of edibles.
