2nd Date

[Alex Dean Andrews]

Laughing right along with his date, "Well, I'm looking at you right now, and I can clearly see you as all man. So rest assured, I'm not questioning it." Alex smiled, relaxing finally once Casey made a joke about it. It made Alex feel better that he didn't make a fool of himself, looking over the younger man, Alex really did feel good about this. "Well, why try if I'm not going to try my hardest?" His small smile was obvious, but Alex still looking at the sky where the smoke of the fireworks were fading.

"Plus, in reality, there is no cheaper date then a picnic." Alex winked, not really caring about the money, it was just to make Casey relax. But when Casey said he didn't deserve this, it made the older male frown just a little, Alex didn't get that vibe off Casey. Standing up, he moved to sit to the side behind Casey, one hand on the taller man's shoulder and one leg wrapped around Casey's waist, "You know, puppies need to be reminded of positive attention too. Remind you of someone?" Alex asked resting his chin on Casey's other shoulder, "I'm just a bartender, maybe it's me who doesn't deserve you. But I'm the type of person to try and shoot for those out of my league. And you, really blow me out of the water. So try not to doubt yourself too much." Moving his hand over Casey's shoulder gently, Alex pulled away and leaned back against the tree behind him. His leg still wrapped around Casey.

Casey had to chuckle a bit but he smiled. "Thank you. I'm soft and gentle but still male. Some people just think that I must have been a female in my previous life. I don't even think the whole soul recycling really happens and that we all have lives before this one." he said as he shrugged a bit.

When Alex said to 'why not try', Casey was still confused. He didn't understand all that much because he never went on a date before. All this was new to him. Literally. "I still don't understand a few things though. Not that I don't like everything you've done, I do. I really do. I just don't see what you see." was all Casey said as a reply and bit his sandwich and chewed a bit.

When Alex moved, Casey didn't even find it strange how the man was positioned behind him. It felt alright and normal even if Casey never did anything like this before. He leaned in to Alex's touch for some reason and sighed as he listened and he shook his head. "No one really ever saw me... That's why I am wondering about you... How did you see me and what do you see in me to do all this?" he asked worriedly because he felt that he should just be happy but Casey couldn't.

For some odd reason, Casey felt the strong urge to lay on Alex's lap. And without even thinking he did so, He moved Alex's leg from him and shifted to place his head on Alex's lap as the man leaned on the tree. "Just a bartender? Now look who's talking? Your a man who is working for your two children to give them all they need. Your worth more than I deserve you know. Your more than gold and I don't know why I felt that way." Casey had to admit because this was just strange for him.

Laughing a little, the older man shrugged, "I don't know, I could see it. You'd be like...uh, fuck like all those princess stories. Friends with birds. Oh yeah, the gentle giant." Alex cracked up laughing, he grinned so big that it wasn't meant to be mean, Alex was just goofing around.

Licking his lips in thought, he slummed his shoulders, no this was not going over well. Casey was still not understanding, Alex was liking being here with him. Wasn't that enough? Who cared what other people missed out on? "Fuck them." Alex said simply, because really, it was just the two of them. "They missed out." What did Alex see in Casey...He had to think about it for a second, really it was Casey's scent at first that drew Alex in, then it was his attractiveness. After that, Alex just liked seeing the other man smile, the smarty-pants shit was kinda funny, it made Alex feel like there was something more than just a pretty face. "It was your gorgeous body and big brain. Beautiful and smart? Psh, if you can cook, I'll marry you right now." Alex teased, because he didn't know if he wanted to tell Casey he was a werewolf yet, he wanted a chance with the older man before he outed himself. But what if Casey walks away because he lied to him?

When Casey moved, Alex moved his hands away from the taller man to allow him more freedom. Smiling a little, he brought his hand back down on Casey's forehead, moving his fingers through his date's hair. "My point is, you're enjoying you're time with me, I'm enjoying my time with you. What else matters?" Alex wasn't going to start writing sonnets and spitting out the forbidden four letter word yet, but he did like Casey. He'd be pretty disappointed if this didn't fall through. "What's your favorite flavor ice cream?" It was random, but it was something to talk about. He didn't want Casey to feel down if he could help it.

"Hey, uhm, so I got something to tell you. I'll let you apperate home or whatever if you don't like it." Pushing Casey's hair back, more to ease himself than Casey, Alex would understand if Casey decided that it was too much to handle being with a werewolf, but it wouldn't be fair if Alex had to hide himself in order for Casey to like him. And it wouldn't be fair to Casey for Alex to lie about it either. Lynn left because it was too much for her, so Alex would just go right back to his normal days if Casey left after this. "I...I'm a werewolf."
