@_crxcker โI know my friends enjoyed that stuff. Iโm a big fan of breakfast food.โ
It just made sense to him.
โBut I canโt think of anyone complaining โbout anything on the menu.โ
Stuart continued to look over the breakfast menu.
โYeah, I think Iโm just gonna have waffles.โ
{ A starter for @_crxcker }
Stuart wasnโt sure what he wanted to do.
He had interests, but they were never strong enough to call him to any certain path.
His parents were supportive, as long as he was working or trying to figure things out, they were fine with him staying at-
@_crxcker โAre you the type to order dinner at a diner, or breakfast?โ He asked her.
Stuart was flipping through the book as well. Heโd have to pick out of all the options on the menu. There was a lot to choose from.
@_crxcker โI like most of the breakfast menu theyโve got.โ
The drive took only five minutes, as it was just down the road. When they parked and headed inside, he greeted someone who just stepped out of the diner.
He had some foods he was particular about, but a diner didnโt have-
I always talk too much when I get drunk at parties. Not so much when I get high. When someoneโs bugging me I just talk about odd shit. Iโve talked about things m like the plot of a Nacy Drew game, where I would rank certain dark rides on a list, and what a loser Banksy is.
@_crxcker He liked going there with his mates, when they had hung out before secondary school ended and they mostly went to Uni.
They always had good breakfast food. And good meals.
The owner knew his dad well, so he always liked going there.
โYeah? Alright,โ he beamed. Stuart-
@_crxcker He thought for a moment. There wasnโt anything new to the area in maybe a year? But he often liked going to the diner near by. Nothing fancy, but it was consistently good.
โI like the local diner. If you want to go somewhere else, I can think on that,โ he offered.
@_crxcker He used the key to unlock it before getting in and starting up the car.
โWhat do you want to eat?โ Stuart asked.
Stuart fiddled with the radio as she got seated.
@_crxcker โI guess your mum was right then?โ
He walked in the direction of the car. He thought about asking her, building up the courage for a moment.
โDo you want to get something to eat?โ Stuart offered.
@_crxcker He followed Paula as she walked out, also discarding his trash.
โI enjoyed it. Definitely a solid film,โ he explained.
As the walked out of the hallway and into the main atrium of the cinema, he looked at her.
โDid you like it?โ
@_crxcker He looked back at her after the film was over.
โYeah,โ he simply agreed, taking the tissue she offered. He wouldnโt bring attention to his tears.
โThanks.โ The blue haired man wiped his eyes.
Then he crumpled the tissue up in his hand and gathered his things to get up.
@_crxcker The scene was intense, especially knowing how many real people died. He watched as they fell into the water.
Stuart felt tears well up in his eyes. He tried to stop himself from letting them fall, but he couldnโt help it after a point.
Films really moved him.
@_crxcker Stuart was glad that it got to that part. He liked the conflict from stuff like that in films.
As they watched the scene, he looked over at Paula before staring back at the silver screen.
He wondered if theyโd be making it out alive. And wether sheโd take his offer if he-
@_crxcker They did cast the film well. Along with that, the sets and costumes looked good. How accurate? Who could say.
Stuart definitely felt a bit awkward when the scene started. Maybe not to the same level as if he were watching it with his parents in the room.
