home, at last. | luke hughes ↠ can be read as a standalone, but first part. ↠ warnings: smoking and maybe a swear word? ↠ word count: 3.0K

over the past two years, blair and luke had grown up immensely. luke also finished his degree in kinesiology and blair had finished hers in art history at the university of glasgow, after transferring from umich. after graduation, she cut her hair, got layers, and added highlights; something she had always wanted to but was too nervous about it. she also dawned a new wardrobe, and honestly - a demeanor. more reserved, and quiet. after returning to edinburgh to be with her parents and her childhood friends, she outgrew that outgoing and sporadic personality and was now more tamed. after her and Luke’s breakup, it seemed only fitting to work on herself for herself. no one else. she just didn't expect herself to find herself flying to new york for a job interview, for lead coordinator at the metropolitan museum - aka the met. when she went to go book her ticket, she giggled to herself knowing that she had foolishly kept the money that luke had sent over when they broke up, thinking that she'd need it for a rainy day and not a plane ticket. her parents though, thought it was the universe trying to tell her something but she brushed it off, even as her friend group told her the same exact thing.

once she was off the plane and checked in at the soho house- in the meatpacking district she and a friend from michigan were on their way to dinner. they secured an uber and were off as quickly as they could, but with nyc traffic at 7 pm- it would be a hike.

the two had been eating their charcuterie board over a bottle of wine, when jessica- her friend saw who had walked in. she swallowed hard, looking back at blair who hadn't noticed. "but are you 100% on moving here? or you're just seeing whatever the met says and if you get any other offers?" and blair shrugged. "honestly yeah, just weighing my options." she said sipping more wine, "im gonna head to the bar to get a martini. need anything?" she questioned and jessica shook her head. blair stood up, turning on her heel and towards the bar. she weaved in and out of the aisle, not aware of her surroundings and who was in them. she slid up to the bar and smiled at the bartender who took her drink quickly, and was off to make it. she knocked her knuckles on the bar a few times before she heard the nasily and infamous voice, "if it isn't miss britain." she heard jack hughes snarl playfully. she rolled her eyes as she looked over, and took in how much he had matured since she'd seen him last. and for the first time in his life, he'd apparently learned how to take care of his dark curls.

"you know im not british, wanker." she taunted before taking the martini from the bartender. "oh i know, i couldn't pass up the opportunity to say it again, like old times." he said cheekily and she rolled her eyes once more sipping some of the cold drink. "he's here right now, if that's what you are wondering." he said stepping a foot closer towards the girl. she looked up at him with a look, jack could not totally decipher. she nodded, before turning to walk away. he grabbed her free arm softly and she looked back at him, "you really hurt him b. really badly. even then, he still misses you." he said softly and she shook her head before turning to walk away.

she felt like she couldn't breathe. this black, long sleeve turtle neck body suit was suffocating her. she made it back to the table and set her drink, "im gonna go outside for a sec." she said grabbing her bag without waiting for a response from her friend. her friend watched her walk out in concern, then look towards the hughes and co table who too, watched her walk out.

yeah blair knew this was a bad habit to have, but only reserved it for certain moments. it was something she took on, after the two had broken up. call it influence, by the city of edinburgh. she pulled out a cigarette from her purse and quickly lit it. she leaned against the wall that was half a block down and away from the main street. she felt herself slowly coming down from her anxiety attack, and felt herself begin to feel somewhat light again. people walked past her in both directions in the meatpacking district, and the distraction and noise were plentiful and exactly what she needed. she closed her eyes for a few seconds before hearing snicker beside her. her eyes whipped open quickly and searched for the source. she sighed when she met luke's eyes, and shook her head. she breathed in one last puff, before dropping it to the ground and stepping on it.

"i never took you as one to ever smoke, blair." he said and now it was her turn to snicker. "im not the same girl, luke." she mimicked his tone, crossing her arms across her chest. he shook his head trying to find words to say. "im not the same that that i once was, sorry luke." she said beginning to walk past him. he turned around quickly, grabbing ahold of her arm softly. she stopped, looked at his hand then back at him, and she saw the tears pool the familiar shade of hazel. "you came." he said softer and she nodded while tears pooled her own eyes. "but not for the reason you think." she said untangling her arm from his hand while breaking both of their hearts in the process. she began her descent back towards the restaurant and saw her friend Jessica, standing outside the restaurant with their coats. "wanna head back to my place?" she questioned and blair nodded profusely.

leaving a sad luke in her wake.

two days later she was walking out of the met museum with a smile on her face and quickly called her mom and dad back home. "hi hun-" she cut her mom off, "i got the job!!!" she beamed while sitting down on the cold, marble steps in front of the museum. her mom and dad cheered loudly on the other side and she could not help but laugh. "you two alright im not coming back, right?" she questioned and her mom laughed. "ofcourse not love, new york is where you're meant to be! we'll always be here if you ever need to want to come home." her mom said and that made her heart swell. "do you have a place already or?" her mom questioned and the girl nodded. "yeah! jessica actually has an extra bedroom she's been trying to find somebody to rent so ill be with her for some time on the east side." she said smiling. "oh love, we are so proud of you! truly." her dad said and she nodded, "i love you both. ill send you details for the rest of my stuff, alright?" she confirmed and then they hung up.

she sighed, stood up, and began her descent back toward her new shared apartment. once

as soon as she walked through the door, she was speechless. she thought her friend was going to be at work and definitely not at the apartment and with somebody. "oh my god, blair!" jessica said standing up and making her way over. "how'd it go?" she questioned trying to gauge the girl's reaction. the Scottish girl could not get over the fact that luke's teammate was in the same vicinity as her. she could not look away from the blonde boy, who was stunned as well. "uh i i got it." she mumbled, heading over towards her bedroom and shut her door. as blair sat down at her vanity to unwind and remove her hair/ makeup, dawson explained how they knew one another. dawson and the girl got along well once luke came over for playoffs and had enjoyed facetiming the two during finals. blair heard the apartment door close before a knock came at her's.

jessica didn't wait for a response before opening the door, and peeking her head in before sitting down on the bed. "i didn't know, i promise. he never said anything, i can stop seeing him if-" but blair waved her off. she turned around in the vanity chair and smiled, "i don't care that you two are together. not at all, i was just shocked. you hadn't said anything or given any clues and therefore i was shocked but if you're happy, im happy." she smiled before walking over and wrapping her arms around the red head. jessica smiled, "im so glad i kept bothering you while you went back home." she mused and blair giggled. "me too, even though i hated the time difference." blair joked before pulling away. "now go call dawson back up here, i wanna say hi to him." and jessica didn't need to be told twice.

it was like time had never passed for dawson and blair, who hit it off well again. jessica's heart swelled at the sight of it. dawson caught up with how blair had been, what she'd been up to the past almost three years and jessica and he explained how long they'd been talking for, and then how long they'd been exclusive. "you got THE job?" dawson questioned and blair nodded softly. "oh my god, this is huge!" he said excitedly as she blushed. when luke and her had been together for that short period in jersey, luke had explained that she had wanted to work at the met or a nearby museum but the met was the end goal for her. and now here she was, freshly graduated and extra ready for the role.

"does luke know?" was the next question out of his mouth and blair swallowed harshly. she shook her head no, "no he does not. he doesn't even know im still here. he probably hasn't even thought about me or does in general." she said sipping some of her fresh expresso she had made. he laughed, "oh bless your heart." he said and jessica slapped his arm a little too harshly, "that's NOT what that means daws." she said while dawson looked confused. "its an insult babe." jessica explained more before dawson began to apologize. "its all good! but he does not think about me dawson, don't lie." she said sighing. dawson shook his head, "you'd never think you two had been broken up. he keeps up with you on social media, yknow? has asked jessica questions without any luck and has asked people back at michigan ive heard." dawson explained, and blair's eyebrows creased. "youre pulling my foot." she said and he shook his head, "its true. it can be a lot sometimes." jessica said butting in. blair sighed leaning back into the couch more, "ive moved on guys, there's never gonna be an 'us' again. im confidant he would say the same thing." she said sighing, "who's money did you use to get your ticket?" jessica asked cheekily. she looked over at jessica with a bit of a glare, "you mean the infamous money transfer?!" dawson asked and jessica laughed. blair put her face in her hands in embarrassment as jesscia and dawson gushed about the money. "if he knew that you used his money to get a one way ticket here, he'd ask you to marry him the second he found out." dawson gushed and blair sighed, not particularly fond of their attitudes but brushed them off.

it was a month later, when jessica was able to convince blair to go to a devils hockey game. dawson had always said that if she wanted to join jessica, he would get her ticket far away from the ice so luke couldn't or lets be honest, jack is more to worry about than luke. so they found themselves in the balcony, in the furthest 200's you could get. blair was very set on not having luke or jack or anybody else recognize her. the two sat down in one of the first rows, and got comfortable. "when was the last game you went to again?" jessica questioned softly and blair thought for a second, "whatever the last home game was during the Carolina series." blair said shrugging while jessica nodded. "they've come a long way since then. the season afterwards was apparently rough dawson said, last year the got better and this year their really good. finally back in the cup talks apparently." jessica mentioned and blair nodded. "this feel like old times, us at the yost and what not." jessica mused sipping her drink and blair chuckled. "except this time you're dating a player and im just along for the ride." she laughed and jessica nodded. "oh! its starting." she said as the players began to filter out for the anthem.

it was hard not to find luke as soon as he filtered out, and blair found herself in a trance. jessica looked on from beside her, and couldn't help but have a small grin on her face. blair would go to the end's of the earth exhaustingly, and attempt to never ever, confess that she still loved the curly haired boy.

the devils ended up beating the flyers 5-3 with luke and dawson both getting a goal in the game. jessica and blair waited back in the balcony before heading down and going to a certain part of the arena to wait for dawson. "usually we meet in the girlfriend and family's box but dawson said to meet here, away from there." jessica explained and blair nodded. blair leaned against the wall, her left leg shaking with nerves. "do you want a smoke?" jessica questioned and blair shook her head, "nah imma wait till we get back and i can sit on the balcony." she said shutting her eyes softly. jessica nodded, "i know, i know its a bad habit. save me the lecture, luke already tried giving me one. i don't need two in a short period of time." and jessica giggled. "yeah im def not the one to judge or give you one." jessica said as she caught dawson walking towards them. "hey babe." blair heard beside her and saw dawson and jessica hugging. "great game!" blair said giving dawson a quick hug, "thanks b." he smiled before pulling jessica's hand into his and the three began to make their way out of the arena. "some of the guys are going out for dinner, wanna join?" he questioned jessica and then looked at blair behind them. she waved him off, "nah im good." and dawson nodded. jessica gave him a small smile, as he turned back around. the three of the hopped into the SUV quickly before making their way towards the manhattan.

blair had been outside on her fire escape for the past 25 minutes and had yet to smoke like she had originally planned to. instead, she took a bottle of red wine and sat out there drinking from the cap. her head whipped towards the window, after hearing a knock at her apartment door. she sighed, standing up, and walked over towards it with the bottle still in hand. she opened it and almost dropped the bottle of red wine. she swallowed harshly, tears pricking her eyes.

"i waited three years for you to come home, i waited three years for you to say something. or at least attempt to contact me, and now that you're here - for good, you don't say anything?" luke confessed, and blair sighed. she opened the door further for him to come in, and then proceeded to set the bottle of wine down. she placed her hands on her hips, staring at the ground. "you don't know how many times i wanted to luke, but i hurt you! i didn't have the right to say something knowing what i did. besides luke, you could have reached out too! yknow?" she said looking up to face him now. luke knew that, his whole family had said it too. "you don't know the amount of nights i couldn't fall asleep because of the guilt that i felt, that would eat me up at night, make me sick, i wanted to luke but it wouldn't have been right. it never felt right the amount of times i was going to text or call you." she now confessed, as luke stood a few feet from her with a stance mirroring hers.

"you look different, a good different." she said taking him in, and then a small frown appeared once she saw that his curls were gone. completely broken now. "you do too. a great different." he said and she sighed, "what?" he questioned. "you don't even hate me, luke! you're supposed to hate me!"she said - yelling now. he grinned as he shook his head, "its always been you, even with your stubborn head of yours. i promise, i tried moving on. i did, but it all came back to you. every girl that i went out with, always ghosted me or screamed at me because i wasn't giving them enough attention or what they wanted. i was and still am stuck on you. you're my girl, b. my forever girl." he said breaking her heart. her eyes swelled with tears as she looked at him and she couldn't help but smile softly. "you're home blair, you're my home." he pleaded, and she shook her head. she clasped her eyes shut, feeling herself begin to cry.

even when she begged him and the universe, for him to hate her - he wouldn't. he would never. luke walked up towards the girl and wrapped his arms around her. that made her sob even harder, and that made him tighten his arms. "ive missed you so much, lukey." she said into his chest and he nodded. "i know i know, i know." he repeated, and having her in his arms made him emotional. he voice broke with those works and that made blair pull back a bit before reaching up and grabbing his cheeks. she pulled him for an emotional and passionate kiss.

they were home.

hope you all enjoyed! ngl this is my first piece in almost a month lol

love your scholarship 🥸

do you know anything about their school/college days - ie if they liked school/had favourite subjects/took particular classes? if Quinn and Luke declared majors at mich?

also if they’ve ever said what they read? think I read that Jack says he likes to read (sports books maybe?) in his spare time and one in of Ellen’s interviews she talks about reading (to them?) and somewhere else about how she was super involved in their academics

The teacher in me is fascinated!

quinn was enrolled in the school of kinesiology and majoring in sports management.

in 2021 he said

If you weren’t a hockey player, what else might you be doing? — Veronica X. I don’t know, I love golf. I’d probably be golfing a lot. I’d be in school somewhere … I’d be a senior right now so I’d probably be getting my degree in the next couple of weeks. Maybe business or sport management? That’s what I was looking at at Michigan for two years.

luke's intended major was also sports management. he was taking a business management class and fumbled his part on a group project when he signed with the devils. he took a greek sports history class and talked about how he doesn't love school but he likes history here (worth listening to imo) and he also enjoyed history of college athletics. luke actually took an online college class before officially starting at umich

"I'm taking an online chemistry class to get it off my plate. I wake-up and do two hours of that and then I go and work out with [trainer] Brian Gallivan and then I skate and then just chill by the pool and hang out. It's been nice."

here's a snippet from quinn about books

Hughes has become an avid reader to expand his knowledge and make better use of downtime. He recently completed “The Boys in the Boat” historical epic that was made into a movie directed by George Clooney. “I buried it, it’s done,” Hughes proudly stated Tuesday after practice. “I finished it three weeks ago. Great book. Page turner. I’m reading ‘Moneyball’ now.” “Boys in the Boat” is a riveting and true account of how the Depression-era University of Washington junior varsity rowing team stunned the world by overcoming immense odds to capture gold at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin. Joe Rantz was a driving force for the eight-man crew. A strong rower with an unshakeable disposition sounds a lot like the driven Hughes. “I thought Joe was just a hard worker who did his job and was a quiet guy,” said Hughes. “He appreciated everything that came his way. He pretty much raised himself from the age of 10 and was a very outdoors person.”

he apparently is "reading a book almost weekly to try to improve his brain" and he also was spotted reading Stay Sane in an Insane World: How to Control the Controllables and Thrive

jack likes reading sports books as said here, specifically Eleven Rings: The Soul of Success and Three-Ring Circus: Kobe, Shaq, Phil, and the Crazy Years of the Lakers Dynasty. The Mamba Mentality: How I Play was on his reading list in high school. he also talks about books here

Craig: The other thing that (Williams) said was reading. He said you’re asking for book recs. We’re looking for book recs. We’re big readers. Jack: Yeah, you guys got any? I dunno. (I’m tired of) everything on my phone, social media, things like that — and I never went to college, so you gotta get smarter somehow. Craig: Are you a fiction guy? Are you a self-improvement guy? What do you find yourself gravitating towards? Jack: I read a lot of sports books. “Eleven Rings,” by Phil Jackson. Also, “Greenlights” by Matthew McConaughey. Those are my favorite ones I’ve read recently. It’s important. We’ve got a lot of down time on the road, so it’s good stuff.

as for ellen, she said this in the cammi & aj podcast

So for me, you do things that you enjoy or you- you teach them things that you feel like you can teach them, Right. So it's kind of a slight on me that I wasn't more worldly and wanting to take them to museums. Or maybe like I felt like I had do those things because like, ‘Oh my God, what am I teaching them?’ But you tend to do the things that you - you're trying to find activities. Jimmy was off coaching a lot, I had three young boys that were really close in age. So what do I know? What can I do to pass time and keep them active? It was kicking a soccer ball. It was throwing a ball, it was doing rollerblading, it was passing the puck, it was taking them skating. So for me, those were mommy and me activities, right? And then every once in a while I'd be like, you know, I'd be like, ‘uh, we got to do Kumon, we gotta do like - we gotta read.’ You know, academics was really important to me because I felt like I was so driven the other way that like, I didn’t want to miss out on the other. So for us, it was never this grandiose plan, and I'm sure you guys were the same way. It was more like, ‘be the best at whatever it is you're doing, work your hardest at whatever it is you're doing.’ Working the hardest didn't mean scoring the most goals. It was playing the right way, whatever it is, being a great teammate and working really, really hard and we always felt like the other would come.

other potentially interesting notes, jack was an honor roll student in 8th grade, and quinn agreed he was the best at school when they were younger, so it's funny he's the one who didn't end up going to college. ellen's brother is actually the president of denison university and they have some pretty academic cousins also.

Week 4 - Toulouse, France

So I say week 4, but I think it's because I added a few days here and there to include or exclude days relevant to each location. My bad, I was just going for a nice flow. Anyway this was really my fifth week in France! It started off pretty slow, with just dinner on the town and relaxing the first few days. Tuesday was the 4th, and everyone wanted to celebrate the 4th of July with us Americans, so we went out and got a few drinks. It was just silly and fun.

ISAE Supaero - the school and an old church we walked by after dinner.

The Capitolium (a political building on the main square) during the day and at night.

Wednesday was when things got a little more exciting. We had a morning visit to La Halle des Machines, which is a museum for wooden and electronic machines used in these pretty interesting shows. There was the Minotaure, which is a minotaur sort of, but it’s half horse on the bottom instead of half man. It was huge and sprayed “snot” at people on the ground. We also go to take a short ride on it, if that helps give any indication of the size. There was also a track where you could slide an iron down, and when the iron passed a certain point, flames shot out around the track. In the afternoon, we got a tour of Toulouse and some of its history. There were a good number of buildings I hadn’t seen yet, so it was cool to see them around town. After the tour, we split for dinner, and later, a few of us went to a karaoke bar. The three of us Michigan kids there did Mr. Brightside again, of course, and I also did You Belong With Me by Taylor Swift with Meagan and Fran (two students from Southampton). It was a long but very fun night!

The Minotaure, Sam pushing the iron, and Gina after we got sprayed with fake snow (bubbles).

An abbey where monks used to stay which is now open for students to come in and relax.

Thursday, we had class in the morning then we went to Aeroscopia. It had a ton of old planes inside, including a concorde and a huge Lego X-Wing fighter. I don’t know much about planes (more of a space girl), so I mostly just ooh-ed and ahh-ed as we walked around. Friday followed like Thursday, but a visit to Cité de l’Espace. instead. It shows the history of space, including some space stations you can walk through, and it has a planetarium. I wanted to enjoy it more, but it was mostly outside and over 90 degrees, so I won’t lie, I was a little miserable at times. We did go out to the bar later that night to celebrate the last weekend in France for most of the program (all non-UMich students’ portion of the program ended on the 12th, and ours ended on the 16th).

The concorde and the Lego X-Wing.

A model of the Ariane 5 and part of the inside of a space station.

Saturday was the hottest day in Toulouse so far. We went out to enjoy a food festival, but it was outside. I did eat some pasta and try some free samples, but I was sweating so badly that we ended up going home after an hour or two. However! On the way back, I did get to try my very first boba, and it was delicious! A little expensive, but definitely worth it. To do something with aircon, we went back out to the movies later. The only thing playing in English at a decent time was Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, so I rewatched that (a good number hadn’t seen it before). Plus, it was super cool to catch all the clues and easter eggs I’d missed the first time!

The food festival, the floor of the boba shop, and the boba itself.

Sunday, I slept in too late and then didn’t feel like doing anything because it was so hot and I was so tired, so I just had a lazy day in my room. It was definitely nice to have a day to myself to recuperate from the almost nonstop action of the trip.

That’s all for week 5! See you for the week 6 update soon!

It's here! Ann Arbor Adventures: Museum of Natural History, written by Ashlee Kristine Edens and illustrated by me is now available. The first book in a series, it focuses on the adventures of a family of wolverines and a beaver on their visit to the @ummnh_museum — University of Michigan's Museum of Natural History. From mastodon tusks to prehistoric whale skeletons, from building a strand of DNA to exploring the riches from deep within the earth, our family of adventurers — and yours — is in for a treat as they stroll through the Museum's many treasures. Order your copy today! Published in conjunction with Fifth Avenue Press—a division of @aadlgram —we struggled through many delays, hiccups and unexpected detours during the making of this book. I could not be happier to finally be able to share it with you. . . . #sloeginfizzart #sloeginfizz #annarbor #annarbormichigan #annarbormi #annarbormom #kidsbooks #picturebookillustration #picturebookart #michiganartist #umich (at University of Michigan Museum of Natural History) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfXRnglPpa1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Spent part of today's #DayOfScience sorting through unpacked specimens. Here is an example of a drawer I found in the collection space. Specimens were nicely wrapped with some associated information. These specimens were collected in 1955 and were part of a core, meaning people drilled into the #Earth and pulled up a tube of rock. These are pieces of the rock, notice how some are very round? Those are the edges of the rock-tube.

I unpackaged the specimens and organized them into rows. I can save space by storing the wooden drawer so I can unpack more fossils here. I also found this really old newspaper associated with the fossils - but I am not sure why. The paper is a page of The Michigan Daily from Saturday October 11, 1958 - eerily close to today!

So, now that these are unpackaged - what happens next?? First, I'll verify the specimen numbers that are on the cards. Then I'll make sure the data in our database matches these numbers and make sure all the data are the same. We also have a card catalog with all the specimen information so I'll be sure to check those records as well. I'll then upgrade the boxes to newer containers that are better suited to withstand time - these will degrade over time.

ok i'm gonna try to be as detailed as possible fidkf any boy is fine! so: i'm 22, 5'10, red curly hair, green eyes, blue glasses, plus-size. i'm nonbinary so i use they/them pronouns but i don't mind being called someone's girl or boy :blush: usually i'm in just a long-sleeve shirt, a zip-up and jeans but i do really like to wear cute knee-length dresses with leggings. i also love hats and flowers in my hair, i never got over the flower crown thing. oh and pretty much everything i wear is blue!!

as for personality, i'm really shy when u first get to know me fhkjf bc i've been hurt a lot before. but if you ask me about one of my interests (disney, theater, superheroes, hockey, dolls) i'll literally ramble about it until someone makes me stop. i apologize and put myself down way too much according to my friends... i also try really hard to be a kind person and to make everyone around me happy even if i'm not. i also love physical affection like holding hands and hugs and such, it's my dream to be kissed someday... i'm very much just a disney princess lol.

perfect date... i honestly don't know! i don't love the idea of something like a movie where we don't talk the whole time... maybe like a museum or a bookstore or something? or a zoo or the aquarium! something where you can always focus on learning something if the date doesn't work out. also i would love if they bought or won me a stuffed animal, and maybe something sweet at the end (i have a huge sweet tooth!). or maybe something involving music? not a concert - again, that's way too loud and too much focusing on something other than each other. but if a song that we both like comes on, and we dance... i'd melt into a million pieces.

so, all that said: my favorite teams are the islanders, hurricanes, avalanche n bruins, but i also quite enjoy the devils, stars, and umich! tbh tho whoever u think would work is good with me. thank u sm my dear <3

Hi hi love! Sorry for the delay!

I ship you with….Sebastian Aho.

He’s a sweetheart, puppy dog, and I know he would take good care of you. He loves that you are always dressing comfy because it makes you look so soft. He is also pretty shy at first. So the two of you bond over how quiet you can be when meeting new people. Sepe never minds you rambles or your tangents. And he would never let you feel bad at him. He’s just happy that his person is so fun, create, and interesting.

*woooOo first date time*

It was going to be your first “real” date with Sepe. He had decided after months of debating his feelings–it was time to take you out and make you his. So the two of you geared up to go and see the art exhibit you had waited to see.

The two of you had gotten to the large, art-filled building about 20 minutes early. You waited in line with his hand locked in yours.

Quickly, the two of you were shuffled to the register where you proceeded to grab you admittance tickets. Sepe insisted that he pay. You obliged as long as you got to pay for the “coffee”after the museum.

It didn’t take long for the two of you to make it to the light filled room. Stunning pieces laid out around you. And you looked at Sebastian in awe. The room was mostly empty apart from a few stray couples and people. It was perfect.

As the two of you walked into the museum, sepe brought his arm around your waist (respectfully). He made little comments about the art into your ear, and almost made you cry out of laughter.

“What is with old times artists and painting penises. That can’t be normal.” He whispered as you looked at a particular piece.

Jokes and laughter spilled out of the two of you, and the museum was a bit boring at times–but none of that mattered. You were having fun with Sepe.

After the art exhibit, the two of you went for a long walk and got drinks. Jazz music flooded the streets and Sebastian took it as an opportunity to spin you around like a bad rom-com scene. Overall, it was a great 10/10 first date.
