He had paid for both men's lunches and now led the way to a table near the back of the room. He didn't like to sit where someone could sneak up one him. Also, a table in the back was likely to give the two men a little more privacy.

Elian had tried to argue with Vale about paying for his lunch, but had quickly realized it was pointless to fight him on it. It just still took some getting used to, having someone do nice things like that for him. He had been thrilled to see that Vale was going to have more than a cappuccino this time. He’d even gotten dessert! Elian, on the other hand, had gone with a small salad with grilled chicken, no dressing, and a cup of potato and leek soup, the creamy soup being a bit of a binge for him. He had also grabbed an apple, though he might save that for later...

He followed Vale to a table near the back, and he had to smile a bit because it was the table that he would have also chosen. With one side of the table pressed against the wall, it made it easier to keep an eye on what was going on around him. He set his tray down and took a seat across from Vale, still looking like someone had just told him he’d won the lottery or something. Once Vale was settled, Elian of course broke the silence first. ”Everything was alright then back... back at your ministry?” he asked, careful to avoid the use of the word home as he didn’t want to assume where Vale considered home to be these days.

It's in the way you hold my hand. It's the way I've watched you change me from a boy into a man. It's a million things about you, and I don't know what it is. I have never known a love like this.
