Third person point of view
" I just realized I am actually very hungry ". Cecil said rubbing his tummy. Aaron laughed. " Let's go have it then ". They were a little late than lunch time. They went to a restaurant nearby and sat down at the table. Aaron finally removed his mask. Their table was isolated and Aaron's back was facing the people, so no one would notice.
" There are some tissues in the bag ". Cecil said and Aaron took them. He wiped his face and put them aside. The both of them ordered food and had it. Aaron paid for the bill even though Cecil wanted to split it. They walked out of there and went to the car. " Where to now ? " Aaron asked buckling up. " You will see ". Cecil said and Aaron cocked an eyebrow.
Cecil smiled and drove out of there. They reached another building and Cecil parked the car. The both of them got out and walked in. It was an art exhibition type exhibition. Aaron chuckled. " Really ? " Cecil laughed. " Just a while. I really wanted to see it ". He gave a pout. Aaron looked ahead and gave a hum. " Plead a little more ".
Cecil was perplexed at the request but not like he wasn't thick skinned enough. He moved closer looking at Aaron with his best pleading expression, puppy eyes and a pout. " Please~ " Aaron looked at Cecil who was batting his eyelashes and acting cute. He laughed and rubbed Cecil's head. " Let's go ". Aaron said walking in. Cecil grinned falling in step.
" Thank you so much ". Aaron smiled. They walked in and it was rather large scale. Aaron just followed Cecil around. Cecil was comparatively silent when he looked around. He observed the art pieces with interest. Aaron also didn't say anything. Cecil turned to the side and saw Aaron looking around. He smiled and went to him.
He realized he has been too silent. " Are you bored ? " Aaron turned to Cecil and shook his head. " It is a lot different than I thought it would be. So it is fine ". Cecil smiled. " That's good then ". " I guess the person you are on a date with definitely shows a difference ". Aaron said making Cecil's eyes go wide. He stared at Aaron in shock.
He didn't know if it is a coincidence or Aaron heard it. Aaron laughed seeing Cecil's expression and moved closer. " Don't you think so too ? " Cecil just blinked and closed his mouth. He looked down and stuttered. " Uh... y-yeah... I guess... " Aaron smiled when he saw the blush on Cecil's cheeks. " Let's go ". He took a step away and walked ahead.
Cecil scolded himself in his heart for getting flustered so easily and moved his feet to go along with Aaron. They went around and walked out after they were done. " Come with me ". Cecil said and walked. Aaron went along with him to the crosswalk. They waited for the signal. Aaron took out his phone which was vibrating in his pocket.
He picked up the call and spoke. The signal changed and Cecil noticed Aaron was on a call. He took Aaron's other hand in his and Aaron looked at Cecil. Cecil showed with his eyes that he would walk. He smiled and walked forward holding Aaron's hand. Aaron was surprised at first but it vanished and he smiled happily.
Cecil walked across the road with Aaron walking a step behind him. They crossed the road and Cecil continued to walk. Aaron was done with the call but he didn't let go of Cecil's hand. Instead, he held it back tighter. They reached a park and Cecil walked in. He finally turned around to look at Aaron who was already looking at him.
He looked down at their hands and wanted to let go. But Aaron smiled and took Cecil's hand pulling him closer on his side. He put Cecil's palm on his arm. Cecil was startled and he was looking up at Aaron with big eyes. Aaron smiled and patted the back of Cecil's hand. " Let's go for a stroll ". He walked taking Cecil along with him.
Cecil blushed harder. There were people who occasionally glanced at them. But he didn't mind it. They walked leisurely enjoying the evening weather. It was cool compared to morning and the sun was also not too bright. The weather was just right. Cecil took a deep breath and smiled. They just walked in silence but it felt good.
Aaron also felt rather content since he spent a quality time with Cecil. " Let's sit there ". Cecil said showing a bench. Aaron nodded and the both of them sat down. Cecil looked around and saw a couple taking photos. He also took out his phone. " Let's take a selfie ". Aaron nodded and took off his mask. Cecil raised the phone and clicked a few photos.
" Give it here ". Aaron said and Cecil handed him the phone. Aaron moved back a little and clicked one of Cecil. Cecil laughed raising his hand to cover it. " Don't take it from up close ". Aaron laughed. " Fine. Come here ". He moved closer again and raised the phone. He looked at Cecil who was looking at the phone.
He put his other hand around Cecil pulling him closer. Cecil went stiff for a second. " Cheese ". Aaron said and could see on the screen how Cecil was blushing. He smiled wider and Cecil gave a V sign. Aaron clicked the photo and they were done. They huddled together to look at them. Cecil laughed when he saw his photos.
" Don't delete them ". Aaron said and Cecil huffed. " Fine ". He sent all of them to Aaron. They went around for a while more and then went to a restaurant around there for dinner before deciding to go home. " Let me drive ". Aaron said and Cecil looked suspicious. " Are you sure ? " Aaron rolled his eyes.
Cecil handed him the keys and they drove back home. " Better than I thought ". Cecil teased making Aaron snort. Cecil chuckled. They went to the house and to their own rooms. Cecil took out all the things he bought from his bag. He took the cover with the cat and pen stand and went out. He knocked on Aaron's door.
Aaron was removing his hoodie. He thought between putting it back on and removing and decided on the latter. He opened the door to see Cecil standing there with a paper bag. Cecil noticed Aaron was shirtless and he quickly looked away. He gulped and looked up at Aaron's face. And face only.
He was trying his best to not let his eyes wander. " Here ". He gave the cover and Aaron took it. " For you ". Cecil said and Aaron smiled. " Thanks ". Cecil smiled looking adorable with red cheeks. " Also... thanks for coming with me today ". " I should be the one thanking you. It was really fun ". Both of them smiled. " No mention ".
Cecil took a step back and walked away. Aaron walked in and took the things out. He chuckled and went to his table. He put the cat on the monitor and the pen stand to the side. He was satisfied with it. He touched the cat's head and went to take a shower. Cecil patted his cheeks. He almost lost it for a second there. He took a deep breath and went to shower too.
