he noticed the heart emoji reaction almost instantly, a quiet chuckle slipping out as he leaned back and typed with confidence.
“mencia, are you flirting with me?”
he watched the bag hit the counter, brows lifting slightly before a knowing smirk tugged at his lips. he didn’t ask questions, he never really needed to.
“yeah, yeah… not too much,” he echoed with a light laugh,
—
Not too much.
𝐓𝐇𝐔𝐌𝐏.
❪words casually spoken. in defense of antonio. playfully, but casually. as valerio 𝐬𝐚𝐭. that black duffle bag down. amongst the ivory counter. raising it from below. one could 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑦 guess what .̲.̲.̲
hands still in his pockets as he leaned back a bit against the counter.
his eyes followed valerio as he wandered off toward the couch, searching.
“you lose your phone already? we’ve been here like five seconds,”
—
he gave a quiet laugh, falling into step beside him as they moved. hands slipping into his pockets, shoulders loose, relaxed.
“your brother always ducks out, that’s not even news anymore,” he said,
—
Good.
❪a catlike smile. stretches amongst his features. walking past the other.❫ I 𝑠𝑢𝑠𝑝𝑒𝑐𝑡 my brother is prolly gonna duck us tonight. But hey, Mencia's coming, so there's that.
he scoffed a laugh, shaking his head as he pushed off where he was leaning.
“relax, i’m not freeloading off your night,” he said, smirking. “i’ll bring my own cash… and i expect you to behave yourself too. keyword: expect.”
⸝ he laughed low into the phone, running a hand through his hair.
keys in hand, he jogged down the street, the night air brushing against his face. the building loomed ahead, lights spilling from the front door.
𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐏.
❪ phone is sprung, attached. to ear. ❫ Que tal. ❪ merely started. he'd hear, over the phone. ❫ You'd better bring your ass. Bunny Bowl starts as soon as it 𝑤𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑠. I can't hold it off too long, unfortunately! .̲.̲.̲
yo yo, i’m coming, i’m coming don’t start the bunny bowl without me, that’s criminal. i’m literally two minutes away, keep the door open or i’m breaking in like a cartoon character.
⸝ his phone buzzed for the third time, and he finally glanced at it, eyes widening when he saw the message. a laugh slipped out as he rushed to grab his keys.
So @veiledrage if you don't hurry up and answer your phone you're getting locked out of the house and you're gonna have to find somewhere else to watch Bunny Bowl at, clock is ticking! ❪ 😊. ❫
