Euan got out of the shower at his house shook out his hair, toweled off his thin body and quickly got dressed. He ran his summer-tanned fingers through his too-long hair. His khaki shorts were frayed at ends, and his Fall Out Boy t-shirt also slightly frayed but very comfortable. He grabbed his bike from the garage, started it up, and took it to Steward's. By the time he got to the Cafe, his hair was dry and he was hungry. He sat down at the first booth in sight, and started to look at a menu.

Caden, happy-go-lucky, funny Caden was in a bad mood. Although he really wasn't sure why, he was. Even Shakespeare's little ferret shenanigans weren't entertaining him like they usually did. Caden picked Shakespeare up off of the floor as he headed out of the front door. He wasn't really very hungry, but he was going to head down to Seward's to grab a bite to eat. Shakespeare perched on Caden's shoulder as he got into his little '60's Camaro, and revved up the engine, sighing as it took it a minute to catch and turn over. On the short ride to the Cafe, Shakespeare ran back and forth from the front to the back of the car about fourteen times. Putting the car in park, Caden picked the little ferret up, telling him to be a good little boy, and cracked the windows, putting his ferret in the back seat and closing the door. Heading in to the air conditioned little restaurant, he looked to his left, a very attractive boy was sitting, alone, in a booth. Grinning, the little gay boy made his way over. "Heyy, is this seat taken?" Caden batted his eyelashes, and tossed his bangs out of his eyes. [/center]

Euan looked up after a second, mouth open after a sweet cute boy spoke to him. He bit his lip, Uhhh no but there's only one menu. Unless you want to share? he asked, surprising himself with his boldness. There weren't many interesting guys around here, and hopefully this was one of them. Euan smiled shyly as he started to slide over in the booth even though the booths weren't that big to begin with. He flagged over a waitress and asked for an iced tea.

Caden grinned. Success! It wasn't too often that Caden seemed to have scored a good one. So far, so good! Caden sat next to Euan, sliding slightly closer than a normal person would to him. "Sharing is fine." Caden shot him the most charming smile he could muster, his mood already skyrocketing from its rock-bottom position. "I'm Caden, Caden Fairbanks. What's your name?" He smiled slightly at his childish question, but that was just the kind of person Caden was. [/center]

Euan Matthews. he said happily, sliding the menu so that Caden could see. What do you want to drink hun? he pointed to the waitress who was waiting for Caden's drink order. Euan studied Caden out of the corner of his eye for a moment, and wowie! A killer personality, gorgeous eyes and the sweetist smile around...and he likes guys?? Where have you been hiding?

Caden smiled up at the waitress, who appeared to be bored and slightly hungover. "Iced tea, please," shooting her another charming smile. Of course, Caden had honed his skills of politeness and charm over twenty years, but even so, he could make people of both genders swoon with no problem. Of course, this helped a lot when at a bar. He turned his eyes back to Euan, giving him a little bit of a coy smirk. "Oh, here, there, just about everywhere," Caden scooted closer to Euan, looking away sheepishly, and looking back at Euan, his thick eyelashes giving him a childish look. [/center]

Euan's eyes opened in shock when Caden answered his question. nuts, nuts, nuts, nuts... he said under his breath as he looked away. He quickly made himself busy looking at the menu. The waitress came back with the two iced teas. we aren't ready yet. he told her sweetly smiling and turning back to the menu.

Caden nodded coyly, and smiled. "Yeahh, I don't stay in one place very long, it seems, unless something...er, someone keeps me there." Caden sighed, "in the last three months I've been in New York, Toronto, and British Columbia, I came back here to help my auntie's nurse, but...my auntie passed, and I'm thinking about leaving again. It's too sad." Caden gave a sad half-smile, and pretended to look busy and look at the menu after the waitress left. He turned to take a sip of his tea and looked back at the menu. [/center]

That's too bad. Euan said sadly, eyes downcast. I was hoping to get to know you better. But we should probably order soon. I'm thinking of getting a burger... he said pointing to the section on the menu. He looked up at Caden, hoping he would get the hint; there weren't many gay guys in Paradise City.

Caden put his hand on Euan's wrist, a slight smile on his face. "Well, if someone could convince me to stay..." Smiling, Caden pulled his hand away, deciding on a chicken Caesar salad. Once the waitress came for their orders, and they ordered, Caden turned his attention back to this new boy he was meeting. "So, where are you from, Euan? Your name is intriguing." [/center]

Euan flipped his shaggy auburn hair out of his grey-blue eyes, My parents are from Canada. he said laughing. I grew up here, but I still say somethings with a Canadian accent due to my parents. He smiled. I wanna get out of here some day. I just don't know when, and I don't know where I'd go. Euan looked for the waitress for more iced tea. Do you like danger? he asked with a raised eyebrow and a half smile.

Caden smiled mischievously, Euan wanted out, and Caden did, too. He wanted to escape this place, already. But now, he was slightly intrigued to take Euan with him. "You'd go with me..." Caden murmured this under his breath, looking up at Euan under thick eyelashes. Euan asked a question, and Caden's left eyebrow raised inquisitively. "Why, yes, but why?"

I guess you'll have to wait til after lunch! Euan said with smirk and laughter. The waitress came over then with the food and iced tea. Euan was starving and quickly started munching on his burger. He was wrapped up in his food for the next few minutes.

Caden groaned, shaking his head teasingly. Smirking at Euan, Caden picked up his fork. Stabbing his fork into his salad, he took a relatively large bite. Although Caden hadn't been hungry when he walked into the diner, he was now absolutely starving. Plus, he wanted to finish quickly so that he could find out what Euan was planning. [/center]

Euan laughed quietly at Caden's expression. The waitress came over asking if they wanted any desserts or coffee. He shook his head, his mouth full of burger. His auburn hair flopped over his grey eyes as she walked away telling them that she'd be back soon with the check. Euan looked at Caden through his long hair as Caden munched on his salad. Are you hungry? he laughed. He ate quickly too though so that he could show Caden his surprise.

Caden's face flushed bright red and he looked sheepishly at Euan. "Not really. But I wanna see your surprise..." Caden trailed off uncertainly, sure he had made a fool of himself. He glanced at the floor, feeling exceptionally embarrassed. Caden turned back to his meal, glancing at Euan every so often. Soon, the waitress returned with the check, and Caden captured it, paying quickly so that Euan wouldn't feel compelled to. [/center]

Euan gently touched Caden's face. Hey don't be embarrassed. I'm excited too. he said softly, brushing his thumb along his cheek. He smiled sweetly, turning back to what was left of his meal. He didn't see the waitress so Caden captured the check. Hey now! he said mock-sternly. Can't we go Dutch? I'll pay half, or at least the tip! Euan added, his face screwed up in his stern look. He slid closer to Caden, attempting to get the check.

Caden smiled, leaning subconsciously into Euan's touch. After the check fiasco, Caden grinned at Euan. "Nope, my treat, luv." His grin was mischievous, although it wasn't all that of a devious thing. Caden leaned over and kissed Euan's cheek, sliding out of the booth, pulling out his wallet and placing a few dollar bills on the table as a tip. "C'mon, now." [/center]

Fine the next one's mine. Euan said smiling at the kiss. He followed Caden for a moment then realized something. Aren't I supposed to be leading? He said taking Caden's hand in his, towing him outside. Time for some danger! Euan smiled.

"Naw." Caden grinned, and followed Euan enthusiastically outside. "Waaaait. Let me get Shakespeare." Caden pulled to a halt, unlocking his car, and getting the little ferret out, letting him settle on his shoulder. He smiled at the other boy. "He goes everywhere with me."
