"Do you miss me?"

Wyatt's eyes were on on Rae when the question was asked, his wine glass in his hand and placed down on the table. The younger man continued to ask if he was happy. There was a sense of familiarity to the questions but none of the old sentiments Rae carried. Perhaps it was just curiosity, how he's been, how he's doing.

"There are many things to be happy about. Family, friends... Work," his head nodded, fingers slightly fidgeted with the stem of the wine glass. "I try not to take things for granted. I look at what I have and feel content. Happiness stems from that I think," his eyes squinted, keeping his gaze on Rae, deciding to answer the first question. "You weren't a passing stranger I only met once. I watched you grow. Annoying little shit that followed me everywhere even when you're told not to. I sometimes think about those times," he poured more wine and drank from his glass, unsure how many glasses he'd had but realized the bottle they ordered was almost empty. "Things - they happen for a reason. Dwelling on what could've and should've been won't change the decisions made," he paused, pouring the last of the wine into Rae's glass. "I'm glad you're here. I think this place made you a part of it," he continued, turning his eyes away as if to look for a server. He thought of ordering more wine but he still had to go back to Paris to prepare for his flight -

"You don't have to bother to take me to the airport. Besides, it's a couple of hours away from here. I don't want to take you away from your lessons."

"The town in general," Wyatt clarified. "It's peaceful. The air smells clean, the people seem friendly..." And he was seeing the effect of the town and people on Rae and he thought that they had a positive impact on the younger man.

Wyatt nodded his head as he listened carefully to Rae updating him on the other's life in France and within the castle. "I'm glad to hear you're keeping yourself busy. And your French does sound very good. Not that I'd be a good judge, I'm not fluent in the language," he smiled and took a sip of his wine.

Wyatt felt the awkwardness in their situation but once again, the familiarity sits in his chest. They might not be exchanging old words about old topics, but there was still the connection. At least a friendly one.

"Yes," Wyatt finally responded, "I'm glad you came. I think it was a chance to grow. Express yourself. See what else is in store for you," his words full of sincerity. Although, he had to admit, at least to himself that he missed the young man. The constant phone calls, unannounced visits at his office. The teasing... He did miss that, too, but he felt Rae is in a better place, with better people to be around with.

"What are your plans tomorrow? More training and language lessons?" He released a sigh, pouring himself more drink, almost ignoring the food that was just served to them.

Wyatt offered a smile as soon as he caught sight of Rae approaching him. The young man still had his boyish look, maybe it was the glasses but the choice of wardrobe definitely gave the other some sense of maturity. Perhaps this place did influence Raleigh positively. It was obvious, Wyatt thought as they headed into town to the restaurant where Rae had booked a reservation for them. Raleigh seemed comfortable moving around in the castle, it was as if the younger man had settled there which is a good thing...

The conversation they carried on was light and although there was some awkwardness, it still felt like the old times.

"You like this place, I see," he commented once they were settled and seated, the view putting Wyatt in a comfortable state. He let his body rest into the chair and sipped some wine they just ordered. "Thank you for the dinner," Wyatt wasn't going to take away the moment from Rae. The other offered and he knew it wasn't just a simple dinner they're sharing. Not that Rae never offered to pay before, but in the past, he made sure that he took care of Rae. Was he telling himself Rae's matured and is able to take care of others now.

be honest, you want to do inappropriate things to raleigh over and over again, then make him yours. you might even get jealous at the thought of other people touching him.

[ maybe private... my man's a bit drunk.... ]

thoughts running through wyatt's head: wants to bend rae over a desk but also at the same time, wanna have rae sitting on his lap while he gives rae's neck kisses...

"I could've called," Wyatt nodded his head, staring at Rae now standing in front of him but I had some time, like I said, before I leave. It's either stay in the city or see something new," he paused. "Tomorrow night. I go back tomorrow night." Rae continued with his questions, it was almost like seeing the younger version of the man. He did feel he was being encouraged to stay however, he didn't feel the other was being pushy. Maybe Rae's being polite. No inappropriate comments, nothing that would suggest Rae's old sentiments when it came to wanting to "hook up with him." Perhaps things did die away and well, he should take it as a good sign. He's glad to see Raleigh's doing well, blooming, meeting people.

"Dinner sounds good," he finally said, once again nodding his head, brushing his silly thoughts away. "I'll let you get ready. Let me know where to meet you and I'll be there," he suggested, letting the young man make the decision and preparations this time as he thought the other would know the town better.

Wyatt's thoughts were interrupted when he heard the familiar voice greeting him the Rae-way. He turned to face the young man and saw a flushed face and damp hair. He didn't know what he thought he'd see; a much grown-up version of Rae perhaps? Instead, he laid eyes on the same facial structure, same eyes, same nose, same lips... "It's nice to see you, too," he said, not taking offense to what was said. Rae had some attachment towards him, he was aware of it. And he made sure he did not entertain it - aside from a few times he forgot his place and let himself indulge, but that was the past. He expected the place had erased that. And maybe he was right as he read Rae's eyes. Then the question came -

"Why are you here?"

He was glad to a point; he was right that Rae would benefit from coming to the castle. But what was this weird feeling that he'd just lost something?

'i was in Paris for business. I thought I'd come and visit, say hi. I had some time before my flight back," he said then paused. "You look well. You're keeping busy," hands stuffed in his pocket as he raised his eyes to look around, making conversation. "My apologies for showing up unannounced," he continued, now looking at Rae's face again. "You seemed busy. I'll head out soon. I just wanted to see how you were doing."

IMPULSE

When Wyatt finally realized what sort of thing he'd done, it was too late. The vehicle that brought him to Château de Ensorceler from Paris is now parked in front of the castle's entrance. There was still time to turn around he thought, but his feet made their way to the door knowing that Rae is inside somewhere. What was he doing? Well, he thought to himself, he's going to say hi to a friend. It sounded weird even in his head. He could hear those voices in the back of his mind telling him how odd it is to be "friends" with a much, much younger man. That almost made him turn around but a bright face of a tall man welcomed him and inquired the purpose of his visit to the castle. It wasn't easy getting access to the clients; he needed some type of clearance before he could see Rae. They didn't have to call his father, do they? No, they answered. They just needed to make sure that Raleigh is available and is actually allowing the visit. He forgot that Rae is an adult, still, very young, but considered an adult. He was led into a lavish waiting area where he remained by himself. He walked towards the wide windows overlooking the estate. It appeared peaceful and quiet around the castle. He wondered how much Rae liked it here...

Wyatt came to France for a business deal. And to visit someone he hasn't seen in a while... Yes, this is a very, very impulsive decision, he'd say. But not once did he try to turn around on the way to Chenonceaux which is more than two hours away from Paris...
