Hey Buck
hey!

what's streetcar though?
is that a movie?
omg, Buck you philistine
A Streetcar Named Desire
it’s a play
💀
sorry!
never heard of it lol
you didn't cover Tenessee Williams in school?
..... I didn't pay much attention to anything that was covered in school tbh
🙄of course you didn’t
anyway
Tia's gonna take Chris for the night, so I thought we'd get dinner, maybe have some drinks after
sounds great
you can educate me on this play 😉
sure
I’ve seen it before
there's some content warnings, but otherwise it's great
awesome
can’t wait
I’ll pick you up at 6?
sure
oh, and dress nice
you don't need to be fancy, but smart is good for the theatre
ah yes, got it
I promise I won't embarrass you at the theatre
we’ll see 😉
I feel so fancy saying that 😅
we're going to the theatre
we are
alright
then I guess I'll see you at 6 on saturday
awesome
it’s a date
wow okay! yes!
it’s a date 😊
wait, I meant .......
no takebacks Eddie
you called it a date
we’re going on a date
......... okay
that'll make my Tia happy
I'm supposed to be taking a date, so well done me
your Tia told you to take a date and you asked me?
um
yes
good 😊
I'd love to be your date
you would?
huh
I didn't realise you felt that way about me
brilliant
I've been waiting for you to make a move, tbh
you have???
I thought I'd made it pretty clear how I feel about you
oh, right
well, I'm pretty oblivious when it comes to that stuff
and yet you still managed to ask me on a date
well done 😉
😅
thank you
and for the record, I'm crazy about you
you are??
wow
um, Buck ... me too. I'm mad for you
you are??
you're not just saying that?
extremely into you
wow
fantastic
I thought I was excited for saturday before, so now I guess I'm ecstatic or something 😅
So am I
Saturday feels sooooooo far away now
yeah
it'll be worth the wait, though
oh, will it?
What're you planning?
I'm just planning on showing up and having a great time with you
well, I'm sure we can manage to make that happen
no doubt
🥰
you, me and a tragic play
it’s tragic, is it?
yeah, it kinda really is
don't worry, if you get sad you can hold my hand
you promise? 😉
definitely
if I cry will you wipe my tears away?
if you want me to, yes
I do
anything to get your hands on me…
oh, reallllllllly 😏
😏
hey
are you gonna tell your Tia that you're taking me?
sure
cool 😊
should I tell her you're my boyfriend?
or is it too soon for that?
idk if it's too soon or not
what I do know is I'd love to be your boyfriend
great
that's what I'm gonna tell her then
🥰
and hopefully she'll stop trying to set me up 😅
yes please
what about Chris?
are you gonna tell him?
oh, of course
awesome
he’ll be thrilled
really? 😃
oh yeah
have you been talking to him about me already?
he's been telling me to ask you out for months
!!!
GO CHRIS
😅
well
I can't believe you're taking me to the THEATRE
did you know I've never been before?
....... never?
never
huh
well, I actually enjoy it
I'm a theatre virgin
I'm sure I'll enjoy it, too
especially if you're there
I'm amazed to learn you're any kind of virgin
😅
if nothing else, it's an experience you haven't had before
and I know you like experiencing new things
I do
I'm really excited actually
I'm glad you're excited
I am too 🥰
I wanna do everything with you
see plays, try escape rooms, go to a wine testing
you mean ... tasting?
😂
I wanna do all that too, buck
omg that makes so much more sense
I always wondered why they'd bring in randoms to test the wine
😂
you’re adorable
🙈
you'll have to educate me on everything apparently
I will happily do that
we can experience everything together
🥰
what are you up to right now?
just got home from Tia's
Chris immediately took over the TV for gaming
lol
do you think he'd like an opponent?
he knows he can beat you, so I'm sure he'd be happy if you joined him
😂
way to crush my dreams
be a better gamer 😜
I'd better start spending more time at your place, then 😉
I’m okay with that
great 😊
well, assuming you have no objections... I'll come over?
none at all
please do
okay
I’ll see you soon, then
I can’t wait
😘
🧡

chimney just found out you took me to the theatre on saturday
oh yeah?
and when I told him it was my first time going he made fun of meeee
rude
why?
for it taking me 30 years
🙄
but whatever
oh well, who cares what he thinks
it’s not gonna be the last time
great
I hope 😉
ohhhh, I see
you mean as long as I take you
😇
it wouldn’t be anywhere near as fun without you there
🥰
speaking of…
when can we go again?
I can get tickets for Equus if you want
but fair warning, it's kinda fucked up
is that something to do with horse equestrians?
not as such……….
I tried 😅
google it 😉
otherwise, there's a Shakespeare on atm
....... bet you've never seen shakespeare either, right?
I saw about half of my high school’s Romeo and Juliet
oh, well done
ty 🥰
but the play that's on rn is the tempest, so
pretty stormy, then
😅
😇
huh
you weren’t kidding about equus
NOPE
we can see whatever you want, though
I don’t mind
I'll get tickets for the tempest
then you can say you've seen shakespeare
what’s that one about?
Prospero
… am I meant to know who or what that is?
😂
😬
don't worry, Buck. I'll explain it to you as we watch it
put my mouth against your ear and whisper things so you can follow it
😍
not sure how much attention I’ll be giving the play if you do that… but please do
😏
😉
I know I said this already but I really did have such a good time with you on saturday
me too, buck
🥰
hey, Eddie?
yeah, buck?
can I tell you something without you freaking out?
… okay
worried now
better tell me what it is
yeah that wasn’t the best way to preface it 😅
sorry
it’s just
I’m in love with you
you are??
yeah
I’m all in
wow
Buck
I love you too
you do?
I really do
😍
and I don't just mean since Saturday
I've been in love with you for a long time
oh, that’s good
cause me too 😅
wow
😘
we’re in love 🥰
we absolutely are
I can't believe I waited so long to ask you out 😭
it’s okay
I could’ve asked you too, I guess, but I didn’t
we’re there now
exactly
are we still on for me coming over after this shift ends?
absolutely
😊
I can’t wait for Chris to beat me at every game you own again 😅
..... right, of course
and here I thought you wanted to spend time with me
of course I do
I wanna do so many things with you… 😏
oh yeah?
like what?
like kiss you
I'm onboard with that
and slide my hands under your shirt
oooh. I'll let you
yeah? you will?
what if I slide my hands lower?
lower, huh?
mhm
I wanna cup my hands over your gorgeous bubble butt
😳
right, okay
might have to take a bite later if you let me…
wow
okay
you’re on
😏
we should probably wait until Chris is in bed though
uh, yeah
definitely
lol
oh shit
what is it?
Bobby just caught me not working 🙃
busted!
😅
yeah
I should get back to it
yeah, okay
I love you, Buck
😍😍😍
I love you too!!
maybe if I finish this quickly I can come join you?
that’d be great
🥰
