Omega19x: "... s..sorry about your meal, Malik... I... I should have asked for the manager first, and... and not tried to have us play guessing games with the menu..."
Omega19x: *looks down and nibbles his frog legs, which are actually really good*
ph33r my rod: "Eh, it's alright... I shoulda remembered what foie gras was since they use it all the time on Iron Chef." *nibbles at his salad* "Hey, at least it's free."
Omega19x: "... is the salad okay?"
ph33r my rod: *nodnod* "It's pretty good." *smiles*
Omega19x: (and now that I know what foie gras is and how it's made, I'm disgusted...)
ph33r my rod: (( Yeah... *knew what it was a long time ago* They say it's supposed to be really good, but the thought of eating duck liver (or any kind of liver, really) just kinda grosses me out :D ))
Omega19x: (but what they have to do to the poor ducks, that's what disgusts me)
ph33r my rod: (( Yeah ;; ))
Omega19x: (wibble... poor duckies.)
ph33r my rod: (( ...I actually learned about foie gras from manga, oddly enough. ))
Omega19x: (really, now.)
ph33r my rod: (( Yeah. XD ))
Omega19x: (huh.)
Omega19x: *eats*
ph33r my rod: *does too*
Omega19x: "... wow... the lights along the river are beautiful, aren't they..."
ph33r my rod: *nods and looks out the window* "They really are." *grin*
Omega19x: *the sun is setting, and the candlelight shines on both of their faces*
ph33r my rod: *looks at Ryou*
Omega19x: *looks at Malik, and smiles*
ph33r my rod: *reaches his hand out across the table*
Omega19x: *takes his hand, and squeezes it*
Omega19x: "... you're beautiful in the candlelight..."
ph33r my rod: *squeezes back, blushing a little* "...you are all the time."
Omega19x: *blush*
Omega19x: *and stares out the window a little* "... they... they say this is the... the city of love..."
ph33r my rod: *nods* "That's what I've heard, too."
Omega19x: *looks into Malik's eyes, across the table*
Omega19x: "... is... is it true?"
ph33r my rod: *smiles* "...it must be." *lifts his hand up, gently kissing it*
Omega19x: "... why?"
ph33r my rod: "I'm not really sure. I mean... any city can be romantic, but... I think it's just the atmosphere here. It makes me want to be closer to you..." *squeezes Ryou's hand again*
Omega19x: *the dishes are taken away, which makes leaning across the table easier*
Omega19x: *leans forward, blushing a little*
ph33r my rod: *does too*
Omega19x: *and their lips meet*
ph33r my rod: *pulls back after a few moments, smiling*
Omega19x: *blushing a little, but also smiling*
ph33r my rod: "See... this was a good idea, even with the food mishap."
Omega19x: *nodnod*
Omega19x: *just holds Malik's hands in his, gazing into his eyes.*
Omega19x: "... I never want to be anywhere else..."
ph33r my rod: "Wherever we are, we'll be together..."
Omega19x: *smiles*
Omega19x: *and kisses him again.*
ph33r my rod: *returns the kiss*
Omega19x: *decides it's easier to sit on the same side of the little booth, so he gets up, and sits right next to Malik, cuddling next to him.* "...there... now the table won't get in the way."
ph33r my rod: *wraps his arm around Ryou, smiling* "Right..."
Omega19x: *smiles cutely, leaning in to Malik's arms*
ph33r my rod: *gently rubs his's shoulder, resting his head against Ryou's*
Omega19x: *smiles*
Omega19x: *and they stay like that, in each others arms, staring out the window, for the duration of the river cruise*
Omega19x: *after it ends, they make their way back along the bridge they took the picture from*
Omega19x: "... oh, this has been wonderful." *smiles, still holding Malik's hand*
ph33r my rod: "It has. Maybe those first few countries were just bad because we hadn't gotten used to traveling yet... everything turned out better in the end." *smiles*
Omega19x: "... just a... a few tiny accidents... Everything's okay now..."
Omega19x: "... I mean, look, my ankle doesn't really hurt anymore. The sunburn's gone. The... the bruises are almost gone. Things are turning out... wonderful... thanks to you."
ph33r my rod: *stops walking, wrapping his arms around Ryou's waist* "That's good... I'm glad things are looking up."
Omega19x: "They are."
Omega19x: *they walk to the edge of the bridge, watching a couple more cruise boats, like the one they were on, pass underneath.*
Omega19x: *the moonlight reflects on the river*
Omega19x: *and there, they embrace.*
ph33r my rod: *holds Ryou, running his fingers through his hair*
Omega19x: *blushes a little, his hands caressing Malik's back*
Omega19x: *a long passionate kiss under the moonlight*
Omega19x: *a little trembling, and a little blushing, but a lot of loooove*
ph33r my rod: *d'aww*
ph33r my rod: *breaks it off eventually, stroking Ryou's cheek* "...I love you." *smiles*
Omega19x: "... I love you too..."
Omega19x: *a little turned around in the passionate moment, he turns to head back the way they came, and right into the edge of the bridge*
ph33r my rod: "Woah." *steadies him* "Watch out..."
Omega19x: "... yikes... th..thank you..."
Omega19x: "...sorry..." *blushes a little* "... you... you take more than just my breath away, I guess."
ph33r my rod: *wraps an arm around his shoulders and starts heading back off the bridge* "...it's probably not the best idea to do that when we're standing on a bridge, huh. But I wouldn't have traded that moment for anything else..."
Omega19x: "... me neither..."
Omega19x: *they walk across the bridge*
Omega19x: *arms wrapped around each other*
ph33r my rod: *starts heading back to the hotel* "...I'm glad we decided to do this game. We're getting to see all of these different places together... it's really great."
Omega19x: "It is."
Omega19x: "... thank goodness for that medicine. I haven't been airsick once."
ph33r my rod: *grins* "That's good."
Omega19x: "... and that means I can enjoy every day of this trip."
Omega19x: "... and spend every moment with you!"
ph33r my rod: "That's the best part~"
Omega19x: "... well... maybe not every moment, but just all the ones that... that matter..." *cute smile*
ph33r my rod: *nodnod*
Omega19x: *smile, and walk*
ph33r my rod: *walkwalkwalk, back to hotel, etc*
Omega19x: *and I think that's good*
ph33r my rod: *works for me*
Omega19x: (yay)
ph33r my rod: (( D'aww, teh fluff~ ))
