Jace smiled sadly at Ky “That must have been tough growing up without someone to look up to like that, I’m sure you were strained by it too, having to decide so young to leave education would have been such a big decision” he said softly.
Jace saw Ky take in his frame but shook his head lightly. There was no way someone as beautiful and kind and talented as Ky had any interest in Jace. Plus, the idea was totally wrong, Jace could be so much worse than fired, he could lose his favourite thing in the world, his teaching. It didn’t make sense in his brain as he tried to work out the way Ky was looking at him.
Jace took the whiskey and dipped lightly at it, letting it burn his throat on the way down in that familiar way, he hummed at the warmth filling his belly before almost freezing at Ky’s words, ‘handsome man in front of me’. Surely, that’s not what he truly said right? His eyebrows pulled together a little, he believing he was definitely drunk now putting together scenarios and his mind somehow making them happen.
Jace swallowed roughly “What are you talking about?” He asked, his mouth dry. He really needed to check that if the words he was hearing were not just in his head. Surely not, Ky didn’t mean they were to have fun together right? That would be completely unprofessional, he could lose his job, his livelihood just for a taste of a man he knew probably had no interest in him outside this night but he had dreamed of a moment like this since he was a teenager, and even more so after meeting him today.
He sat his whiskey on the bench and walked up to Ky breathing a little fast as he looked up into the man’s eyes, he wondered if what he thought Ky meant was right, he didn’t want to be the one who initiated just in case he had completely misunderstood what he meant and the looks Ky had been giving him, he was still quite a bit tipsy and he may have had vodka induced goggles on
