zsaszle: (and I can hardly breathe)

Victor looked at his watch to know just how late he was. Huh. Not that late. He slammed the door of his car shut, pocketed the keys and then walked over to the school building, debating if he even felt like going in today. Maybe. Why not? Not as if he had much else going on, Monday morning wasn't exactly a hopping time.

He still slowed down as he approached the stairs, sighing and then stopping for just a moment, looking off at nothing much. What was on his schedule now? He honestly didn't know, so he figured he'd just hang around until break time, then someone could tell him.

This was the latest he had gone in weeks being single, so that was something strange to think about. Usually it happened Monday as he got onto school premises, but he'd slept in today. Didn't feel much different, being single. Less to think about, maybe, there was the downside.

Victor frowned at the boy, unsure why he was talking to him. Not that he minded, he just hadn't expected it. Did he know him? He couldn't remember him and he felt he would have, he had a memorable face. Few people did. Had he insulted him? Probably not, given he asked about whether he was okay first. Just someone actually concerned, for some reason. That was weird. People weren't usually concerned for Victor, as a general rule.

"I'm all right. Just breathing." Seemed like a good idea. Breathing, being there, feeling as if life was real. "Living. You?"

"Yeah. Not sure why that's so exciting." Honestly, he didn't really know what was in it for them. Although he supposed he tended to pay for stuff and all the girls so far had liked that, as well as getting to ride around in his various cars, so maybe it was just a money thing. Usually was. "No one's asked yet. I overslept."

Not that he was sure why he had exactly. Just hadn't felt like getting up, he knew he'd been awake. Or maybe he wasn't even awake now. He did wonder how people could tell.

"If I was lonely, I doubt dating someone new every week would change that." Evidently didn't. Victor looked at Lucius, he didn't mind meeting his eyes. He kind of liked that Lucius asked him questions, made him think. Usually people didn't make him think much. Most people were boring.

"I don't really know why. It's something to focus on." Better than the nothingness that life generally was. "Think it'd be a lot less effort to just be a player."

"Huh." Victor hadn't expected that. Maybe he should have, given the line of questioning. But, to be fair, usually it was more girls just about tackling him while yelling the question, so this was subdued by comparison. Maybe preferable.

Definitely preferable, made his ears hurt a lot less. "What's your name?" If he was to date him, he really ought to know his name. "And how old are you?" He had to make sure this wasn't under his age limit. He didn't think so, just looking at the boy, but still.

"Lucius Fox. Cool name." Victor liked that. "Handsome face too." He also liked that. And, since they were now dating, he felt it was only appropriate to tell him that. "Of course I'll date you."

Why not? He reached into his pocket to get his phone out. "Give me your number and then I can walk you to your locker." He knew how to do the boyfriend thing, he was a bit of an expert at it by now. "I can meet you there after school too, then I can drive you home. Unless you wanna do something else."

People had different dating preferences, he knew that well by now. Although a lot of the girls so far mostly wanted him to take them shopping. Whatever.
zsaszle: (suddenly I'm in over my head)

Victor walked with Lucius, frowning at the question. "Dunno. It's something to do. Passes the time."

Better than nothing, that was about how he'd usually rate it. But that was pretty much how he rated everything right now. "You have a nice smile, Lucius." He felt he should tell him, because it was very much true and they were dating. "We can sit together for lunch."

This wasn't his first time dating someone who wasn't from his usual circle. So it was a boy, but really, not that much difference otherwise.
zsaszle: (enter the morning light)

"Let me know when you're uncomfortable. I don't wanna do anything that does that." Seemed simple enough. "Nothing makes me uncomfortable, so you're good. I'll find you at lunch, don't worry about it."

Victor leaned against the locker next to Lucius, then reached out to lightly touch his arm. "Thanks for asking me out."

It was something new. He liked that. Leaning forward, he lightly kissed his cheek. "See you at lunch, Lucius."
