The Cafe was quiet when Raffy entered.
He chose a table by the window and walked over, sitting down. He knew he was a little early, but he didn't mind waiting. He just hoped that Rome would show up.
"Welcome to Rainbow Cafe, would you like to order?" A young waitress appeared at his table, while Raffy was lost in thoughts.
"Oh, I'm waiting for a friend of mine" Raffy replied with a smile.
The waitress nodded.
"Alright, I'll be back when you guys are ready!" she gave him her best customer service smile again, and left as quickly as she had arrived.
It took another fifteen minutes, before Rome showed up, but Raffy was so relieved to see him enter,that the wait didn't matter at all.
It counted as progress. He had accepted his invitation for a coffee, a little date.
Progress.
"Hey!"
Raffy greeted him with a smile, when Rome sat down next to him.
"Hi."
"You came." It was silly of him to highlight that fact,but he couldn't help to test the waters a little bit.
Rome shrugged. "I was in the mood. So what's good here?"
"I like their chocolate cake, but the slice is gigantic, would you be in the mood for sharing it?".
Rome seemed to ponder that for a moment, his— extremely kissable lips— gently curved in a beginning of one of his smirks.
"Sure, let's share!" He conceded, and it felt like another victory for Raffy. A huge one.
Raffy tried not to smile too widely and signaled the young waitress again.
They ordered two coffees and the slice of cake to share, and once the waitress was gone, Rome fished his phone from his pocket, tapped something and handed it to Raffy.
Raffy looked at him for a moment, before taking it and looking at the screen. Rome's channel page was opened and there on the top, two new playlists were still uploading, the loading bar showing them respectively at 87% and 66%.
Raffy looked at the names, the 87% one was his old one, with the edit he had made to the title: 'I am your BACKUP plan' the second one, at 66% was called 'Kintsugi'. He looked at Rome, wanting to say something, daring to hope that the second playlist's name meant what he thought he meant.
The waitress came back with their order, Raffy looked at the cake and the two forks resting on the plate. Before he could second guess himself, he took one and cut the tip of the slice, the best part, offering it to Rome.
"Open up!" he smiled, deciding to ignore the playlists for now. Rome's eyes widened but he leaned in and opened his mouth, allowing Raffy to feed him.
Raffy smiled, and using the same fork took a bite for himself. Did he make a little show for Rome of using the same fork? Maybe. He was still on a mission to make Rome fall for him after all.
