Work Text:
Making this dating profile seemed like a complete waste of time during the day. There was nothing but perverted old men looking for daddy / son experiences or the closeted men whose pictures were very obviously cropped to remove their families, skipping any sort of pleasantries or form of decent conversation and jumping right to asking him if he wanted to meet them at a local hotel. Yes, making this dating profile was a very bad idea, until this moment.
Eames: Do you ever just feel like you’re wasting your good years?
Arthur: I feel like we’re too young to have to know what we want to do for the rest of our lives right now. Why can’t I work part time and spend the rest of my time reading or traveling. I’m still young.
Arthur: I should be able to stay up on late nights without worrying about being late for work in the morn
Arthur: morning*
Eames: Exactly. I’ve been attempting to take time off work to just figure some things out. The urge to just up and leave sometimes is too overpowering to say the very least
Arthur: I know the feeling.
Arthur: What do you do, if you don’t mind sharing?
Eames: I don’t mind. The intention of these kinds of sites is
Eames: to get to know people better
Eames: I’m in sale
Eames: yes, I am that annoying person that tries to persuade you to buy something, but I promise I’m not as annoying as most.
Eames: I do tend to keep people on my line lot longer than my co-workers
Arthur: And how do you manage to do that? Just that good, huh?
Eames: Of course I am love
Eames: but, it’s really just the accent. drives american women crazy
Arthur reached for his glass of wine from the night stand and re-read Eames’ last two responses. There were so many directions this conversation could go in. He felt himself warming and it wasn’t the alcohol.
Arthur: I’d like to hear your voice someday.
Eames starts to type and stops. Arthur raises an eyebrow and sips his wine, waiting for the other man to reply.
Eames: If we’re being frank, I’d love to hear your voice as well. Preferably from underneath me and filled with anticipation
Arthur: And what makes you think that I would be underneath you?
There’s a bit of a pause before…
Eames: I never said I would top
Arthur practically beams at the screen.
Eames: One should always be willing to experiment in the bedroom, don’t you agree?
Yes, this truly wasn’t a bad idea after all he thought.
Arthur: Up for some experiments tonight Mr. Eames?
