Ching Tai, Friday Evening

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

When having to choose between a party that was, according to the posters, not an orgy and a nice quiet dinner, the quiet dinner won hands down. "They have tea here if your throat is still bothering you," Teddy said.

Chad would admit a slight sense of loss at missing the Utopia party because, while there was no orgies, there was still shirtlessness, and any excuse to go shirtless was nice. However, the night would probably end up in shirtlessness this way, too, so he won either way.

"Tea'd be good," Chad nodded and spoke hoarsely. Plus, it'd be funny. Y'know, 'cause the name...thing...

This night would end in shirtlessness with a promise of more, unlike the not!orgy back at the dorms.

He held the door open for Chad, because he was polite like that. "Can I still get a non-tea drink, because..." He made a face at the thought of drinking tea.

[senor-chado.livejournal.com]

"No," Chad said, clearing his throat a little as he did because his voice still sounded all weird. "Has to be tea."

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Teddy stuck his tongue out at him. "Then I'm putting lots of sugar in it."

[senor-chado.livejournal.com]

"Guess it'd be okay if ya skipped tea, then," Chad managed to get out, scratchily. "Save that sugar for later."

Yeah, it was corny. He didn't care. He slipped an arm around Teddy a little as they were lead to a table.

Teddy waited till they were seated and the waitress left to get them water while they looked over the menus before responding. "Dork," He said playfully, nudging Chad's foot with his own.

[senor-chado.livejournal.com]

"Look who's talking," Chad responded, peering over at Teddy with the menu hiding his grin.

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Teddy gave a mock offended huff before looking over his own menu.

"Cheerleader," He said, trying not to laugh.

[senor-chado.livejournal.com]

"Hey," Chad grunted, lowering the menu as he set an elbow on the table to point an jokingly accusing finger at Teddy, "that's not fair. There were..." The sternness he had constructed died a way a little as he tried to think of the words, "Uh, uncontrolled circumstances in that."

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Teddy raised an amused eyebrow at that. "And those would be?"

[senor-chado.livejournal.com]

"Deadly combination cute, redhead, bouncy, and short skirt," Chad explained, ticking off the circumstances on his fingers.

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

"So, if I change my hair color to red and put on a shirt, I can get you to do anything?"

[senor-chado.livejournal.com]

"Nah, I like ya as a blonde," Chad said, half-tempted to reach over the table and ruffle his hair. He wasn't going to say anything about the skirt, because the only thing he could conclude about it was that it would be...interesting.

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

"Uh huh," Teddy said, filing that bit of information away for another time. "But now I have this mental image of you in a cheerleading skirt."

[senor-chado.livejournal.com]

"Nuh-uh," Chad said, a nearly terrified widening of his eyes. "Pippi promise. No skirts."

It was a pretty potent fear for him, give him a break.

Teddy leaned back to peer under the table. "Why not? You've got really nice legs." He rubbed the top of his foot against Chad's calve to emphasize his point.

[senor-chado.livejournal.com]

That little action completely irradicated any arguement Chad could have made, swept it entirely from his. He leaned forward toward Teddy, grinning slightly. "That so?" he rumbled.

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

The waitress arrived before Teddy could respond, causing him to sit up straight and look at his menu. But not before giving Chad another nudge with his foot.

"Um, Orange Beef please," He told the waitress.

[senor-chado.livejournal.com]

Chad asked what the spiciest dish they had was and got that, handing the menu over and then leaning back, stetching out comfortably to start the wait.

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

That thing Chad was feeling moving up his leg, that would be Teddy's foot. Teddy innocently sat in his chair, sipping his water, showing no signs of doing something inappropriate.

[senor-chado.livejournal.com]

Just as Chad was sitting there with no sign that he was thinking something inappropriate.

Which, unfortunately, didn't do much for his ability to converse. "So," he said.

They did take out here, right? He wondered if it ws too late to just get their order to go.

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

"So, you never did tell me why your nickname is Chad." Teddy's foot hooked around Chad's ankle, rubbing against him lightly.

Dr. Venture came in to get Chinese food.

And spent most of his time eyeing the gay couple. And fantasizing.

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Half way through the gay couple's dinner, they scooted closer together for a quick kiss. The 'quick' kiss soon stretched for longer and longer, only the waitress coming with more tea broke them apart.

The world does not need to know what Dr. Venture did in reaction.
