"You know those things don't work like that, mate!", he avoids the subject with a chuckle. "You noticed you are empathic with other people. He said you looked into him and felt something. He felt it too when you looked at him with those beautiful eyes!"
"He said I have beautiful eyes?"
"No. I said you have beautiful eyes. He said you have a smell of 'mountain mist after a rainfall and first breeze of a sunrise'. I know I have a nice sense of smell, but this guy makes me envious. I wish I could smell you like that everytime we woke up together when we share the bed!"
You can't shake the memory of your dealer talking about that specific compliment the guy named "Ethok" gave to him. This too much overly specific to be normal.
"You should go talk with him. He isn't much of a phone person, but I can give you his number later for at least you guys meet up somewhere else", his big and dumb smile faints a bit, "It would do good to him. He is... Not in a good place for a good time now. I always get happy and hopeful when he finds someone that peeks his attention. Try once, okay? For me. If you two don't click nor become friends, at least you tried one time."
"Sure...", you are hesitant, but you won't be disappointing James. And this would be an opportunity not only to dig more into this web, but trying to understand this weird man.
"Talking about people to worry...", you final card. You talk about Peter.
James had no alteration on his mood. "Call him 'Petey', bro!", that big smile returns to his face, "He wants that position. Boss is still insecure. Company got thought a rough time these past few years and our old boss tried what he could. We are recovering now."
"Like...", you are careful now with your words, "Three years?", is he say yes, this means it'll coincide with 2018 meetings people at Tabloid uncovered.
"Yes...", fuck! "But also no...", phew! But fuck! Cryptic, drunk motherfucker! "Big companies tend to struggle here and there. 2018 was a big year, I agree with you there. 2019 we had to move some things and 2020, well... You know what happened. But I know Boss will do his best. Between us? He's insecure. Many pushed him to take old Boss' spot, but he never would. He said he isn't build for that. Guess Life forced him to do it anyway."
You hear door opening. Another person, another prayer to not come near you and James. "Hello, ladies", it's Peter's voice. What a fucking coincidence, am I right? And without the sound pumping in your head, you can hear better his irish accent, but it's no way closer to be heay as James' scottish.
He comes to your side at the urinal. You are now sandwiched by two strong man. It would be good and hot scenario if you it weren't for the situation around you. Peter look at you both. He really looks at you both. You can't even question about the nature of his eyes checking in on you. "Hm? We doing this? Fine", he does same as James and gets buttnaked while pissing. "Let me guess: Ryan is our Dom?"
