Cute. Felix chuckled then, resting his face on his hand as he watched Jae bury his face. His cig long forgotten. He took a deep sigh “Yeah… well me too it seems.” Just stating so bluntly. “Sorry can’t help who I am. Teasing you however must be my new hobby.” Felix took the opportunity to scoot over, moving the notebook over onto his other side for the time being. He didn’t touch him, just closed the gap, leaning back putting an arm on the back of the bench to lean in. He leaned in just enough to speak softly though not a whisper. If Jae couldn’t tell he was right there he would be surprised. “Wanna go on a date?” He was serious but also partly asking a this moment to see if he could gain another reaction, he found it very enchanting.

Oh dear. Jae thought he might spontaneously combust. How he had managed to survive as a host up until now was beyond him, when a little flirting from Felix could destroy him like this. The vampire had him totally flustered. "Teasing me is your hobby? Is it that. That fun?" Oh no, he could feel the blush. If it wasn't climbing down his neck he would be shocked, based on the feeling. Hot all over, utterly teased. "What?"
Glancing up, startled, Jae sputtered for a moment. "Um. I." Did he want to go on a date? With Felix? "Do you really wanna go with me?" he asked, and oh, he could definitely feel that traitorous blush. The sheer betrayal of his own body, when he was a Daeva of all things, was shocking. He couldn't help it, though. Felix seemed to know how to bring it out in him. And oh my, Felix was very close. If anything, the blush deepened.

There was no way Felix could smile any wider, he was not disappointed. Jae’s current disposition just fueled his desire to make the vampire host before him turn red even more. He couldn’t miss it now; it was blatantly clear to him that he had caused this. “I wouldn’t have asked if I didn’t, I don’t usually date. But for you I would.” Once his mind was set, that was that. Felix would try again if he wasn’t up for it now. He also liked the fact Jae was so not like his role at LUX. This is what he was missing, he thought, something more real and in the moment. Everyone to him played a role out there trying to impress in one way or another but not showing their true selves. “You know you’re real cute all rosy.” Brushing a knuckle along Jae’s jawline. “So, what do you say?”

If it was possible to just burst into flames, Jae would have by now. There was absolutely no way that he would be able to avoid turning into a tomato, at this point. Surrounded by roses, Felix ever closer. No, not just closer. Felix was actually touching him. Jae blushed scarlet, and given his coloration, it was a truly impressive showing. "Um." He gulped, trying to get his courage together, utterly aware of Felix and Felix's proximity. Oh my stars, but Felix knew how to tease.
"W-What kind of date?" he hedged, trying not to sound like the fool that he surely was. Oh gods, Felix knew what he was doing. He was playing him like a fiddle, and there was absolutely nothing that Jae could do about it. He couldn't fight the way Felix seemed to tug at him. If Felix did anything at all, right at this moment, he felt sure he'd crumble.

Violet eyes never broke away, relaxed and confident he was, this was him. He began to wonder if he’d get an answer though, maybe it was too much teasing, Jae looked about to combust. “What do you mean what kind of Date? You know the ones where you take someone out, like to eat or a movie, somewhere fun.” He sat straighter, only then to look away, needing the space for the moment for demonstration purposes. “Holds hands,” He took his Jae’s hand in his and wove their fingers together. “Go on walks, talk, and then even.” Using his free hand, he took Jae’s chin like he did that first night. “You know, kiss.” He closed the distance, placing a soft kiss briefly on his lips. He pulled away, searching Jae’s face for an answer. “That kind of date.”

Spontaneous combustion was seeming more likely by the moment, as Felix tormented Jae in ways that he had to admit to himself that he liked. He found himself easily led through the motions, here, and swore that he probably couldn't get any redder. "That... sounds nice," he said, or breathed. Wasn't sure which it was. In spite of himself, he twined his free hand behind Felix's neck, and pulled him down for another kiss. Not quite so little. But at this point, Felix deserved it.
Felix had teased him all to hell, and teasing a Daeva sometimes had consequences. Though maybe not bad ones, because Jae was a very good kisser. He pulled back, gazing up into Felix's eyes, wondering if he'd crossed a line. They'd only done little pecks of kisses, so far. Nothing as substantial as this. "So. Yes."

Felix responded in kind to the kiss Jae gave him back. He hadn't quite accounted for that to happen. It was well received even if a surprise. He smirked at the answer pleased. "Great." Squeezing Jae's hand lightly before letting go returning it, he stood, and slid the notebook back over. Felix was trying to keep a line, he without a doubt needed to keep for himself mainly, under the seemingly calm exterior his reasoning wanning. "Same time next week?" Felix towered over him, impulse winning. He bent down hand weaving through Jae's hair grasping his nape. Just one more he thought. Capturing Jae's lips for a passionate parting gift. "I'll come get you from work if I have to." He warned playfully, releasing him.

At this point, Jae should've known better than to expect that he'd get away with just the one kiss. But there they were. It seemed that Felix was going to let him go now, and he tried to get himself back under control. It was going to be a very long night, at this rate. "All right," Jae said, feeling as dazed as he probably sounded. "It's a date, then." One week from now, and Jae couldn't help but think he'd be in even bigger trouble then.
After all, he was barely holding on as it was. If tonight was any indication, Felix would be an awful, terrible tease when it came down to it. Ah, he was a little disoriented. It would be time to go home soon. Because dazed and confused did not mix well with sunrise. "Fine. But I'll plan to meet you outside." The last thing he needed was a repeat of the other day.

After the last meeting Felix looked forward to tonight, a week wasn't that long but the time seemed to pass slower than normal as he countered the days. Grabbing only what he'd need Felix head out grabbing a leather coat, shrugging it on as he went. He was done up a little nicer than normal but that only read in the button up and very loose tie he had. Sporting the leather coat and some biker boots to keep it somewhat casual as well. He left his hair down still slightly damp from a shower having only combed his hands through it and back for it to dry on its own. It would have a subtle wave when it did. Only to flatten more as time went on. He made his way toward the one place he needed to be, LUX. He realized he never said when exactly to meet but he'd wait around. On the way he ran into a few others he knew as they tried to get him join them at another joint, brushing them off lightly saying he was busy. Some jeered jokingly as he past up the offer. He made a pit stop at the garden, plucking a rose this time paying more mind of the thorns plucking them off as he went. He didn't really have a plan set, just some ideas he tossed around for the whole week he waited. He had arrived, looking at the grand doors of the establishment moving on to side to keep out of the way and leaned on the wall to wait. Grabbing his smokes to pass the time and idly twirling to rose at his side.

To say that Jae cleaned up well was an understatement. If his coworkers had found his look surprising, they hadn't shown it. The top he wore was silver, threaded through with blue to match his eyes, and shimmered between both colors in a way that almost distracted from the cut of the garment itself, but he managed to pull it off. It was all a little chic, more so than his usual getup, but... he wanted to look nice. He'd braided half of his hair up into a twist, a look that wasn't exactly his standard. This was a date, though.
Paired with black pants and a goth glam set of kicks, he definitely felt like a million bucks. Of course, he had no idea what Felix was wearing today or how he expected him to look, since they hadn't discussed what the date would be like. But when he caught sight of Felix outside the LUX, he knew instantly that he was both dressed for the occasion and maybe a little overdressed. Oh well. Maybe the cutouts in the top would match that leather jacket, at least. "Hey," he said softly, his voice carrying across the distance between them. He tucked a loose strand of hair behind his ear in a now surely familiar nervous gesture. "Ready?" he asked, glancing up at his date.

He hadn't had to wait long. He sideglanced with a half smile pushing off the wall as he abandoned the remains of his light. "Hey beautiful." Stepping up to Jae cutting the stem of the rose shorter, he hadn't planned to but since Jae sported a partial updo an idea presented itself. "For you," He stated, but instead of handing it to him he reached out to stick it in his hair and admired his work. He didn't expect anything less for Jae's attire. Another tick in his mental notes of things he liked about him. "Yeah I'm ready." He offered his hand. "I'll admit I don't have much of a plan. This is as far as I got." He admitted with an easy laugh. "Shows how much I date I guess." Which was, well he didn't, this would be his first one officially. "If you want we can eat somewhere. Plenty places around." He thought about it a bit. He forgot where it was he was invited and wanted to steer clear if they ended up at a more lively place.

Pinking up in a way that was probably very predictable by now, Jae couldn't stop the smile that tugged at the corners of his lips. It probably looked silly, but he didn't really care. Felix could really be sweet when he wanted to, though Jae was getting to learn that he really liked flustering him. Well. It's not like he didn't like the attention, anyway, even if he did find himself blushing an awful lot around Felix. "Thank you, it's beautiful," he said, unconsciously echoing Felix's words.
"Hey, this got you to me, at least," Jae pointed out, and then tucked his hand in the crook of Felix's arm without asking for permission first. He gave him a shy but hopeful look. "I could use a bite. Do you have anywhere in mind?" he asked, glancing up at Felix. "Any favorites?"

Felix bent his arm tucking a hand in his pocket subconsciously squeezing Jae’s hand against him reassuringly between his arm and side. “Getting to you was the easy part. The rest…” He tossed his free arm in the air at a loss as he began to mull over some options. He could go for anything really, he went where he was dragged. After taking an abnormally long time to think about it a few places struck him. “I like a good barbecue and any place that does a la carte, you know the ones where you order a few different items, each pretty large, and it’s like your own buffet to share?” Those were always fun, made it easier to try different things as well. “Or if you rather we could just go for something…sweet?” He could do either, or both.

When it came down to decisions like this, Jae really could go either way. But because Felix's little squeeze had emboldened him, he decided. "Why don't we do a barbecue place?" he asked, "To start with. And then if we want something sweet, we could always go out after." Although... he couldn't help but think that he had that something sweet right here and now. "So, somewhere we can order up different things and try them all." It occurred to him that the a la carte place could've not been a barbecue place, but he liked barbecue, too, so figured they could combine it all together.
"Do you know any places like that? The barbecue place I know is a little more casual than this." And a little far, at that. Besides which, he was curious about the restaurants that Felix knew. He wanted to branch out a little. Try something new. Of course, he was, in a way, in going on a date.

"I know of one." Not so far but a little away from the buzzing night life of clubs and bars there was a smaller establishment that catered to smaller groups or individuals. Felix had been there alone a few times, a place he liked to go to reset. It was nice-ish. It wasn't no fine dining. The place attempted an atmosphere of pseudo ritz in the decor and design, which gave a perfect excuse of dressing up without feeling out of place. He led the way silent until they arrived, opening the door for Jae, following him in and returning to his side to guide him by the small of his back. Finding a corner half booth he was familiar with. They would have to sit next to each other. "Hope this is alright." There was a short menu on the table listing a few common combos of items and if there any inviduals extras they wanted and drinks.
