Friday Afternoon and Evening- Mainland

It had been a busy day for Connor already, and he hadn't even had a class to deal with like Cutter had. But he DID have a lot to keep busy with to make sure everything today went according to plan.

After their talk last week, Connor had made arrangements for a little day trip to the mainland. He had something special planned and had somehow managed to keep it a secret from Cutter until now. He looked down at the pamphlet to the small museum he had found.

It sounded like someplace Cutter would enjoy. Connor just hoped he was right and resisted the urge to fiddle with his gloves as he waited for Cutter to meet him so they could catch the portal he had set up for them.



(For that guy. That they met to go on a date is okay but rest once they catch their portal is, of course, NFB due to distance.)

Cutter was a lot more nervous about this than he thought he would be, it had been a really long time since he’d been a proper date, actually it might have been one of the few times he and Stephen had tried to make it work with them and that had been at least a year or so ago.

He was also a little nervous about the portals still but Connor seemed to trust them.

He also had no idea what he was even meant to wear since he didn’t know what Connor was planning and had gone with jeans and a collard shirt to be on the safe side.

“Hey,” he smiled as he arrived at the spot Connor had arranged to meet him, “I didn’t keep you waiting, did I?”

It was one of the few times that Cutter was ever going to be worried about keeping someone waiting.

Cutter relaxed at that as let himself be pulled into the hug, “I wasn’t sure, I didn’t want you to think this was like our seminar classes and I wasn’t going to turn up,” he admitted.

Even though at that point he hadn’t even known who Connor had been, what a difference nearly two years made.

Cutter smiled at that, “that’s true, if something had come up I would have at least tried to let you know,”

His smile widened as he looked at the pamphlet Connor was holding, he had definitely been wondering where Connor would take him, “may I?” he asked, reaching his hand out for the pamphlet.

Cutter took the pamphlet and looked it over as soon as he saw where Connor was taking him, he smiled, “oh this looks fantastic,” he looked up at Connor, “we’re going to see palaeontology and archaeology collections?”

Good luck getting him to leave once he got there Connor.

Cutter’s expression lit up at that, “our own tour?” there was every chance that Cutter was going to be the one giving the tour and not the poor guide assigned to them.

“This is perfect, thank you,” he smiled, not feeling as nervous now.

“Oh that does sound like fun,” Cutter grinned as he reached out to take Connor’s hand, “yes, please I’m really looking forward to this, it’s been a while since I’ve been on a date,” he admitted.

Cutter had maybe closed his eyes while he was clinging to Connor’s hand as they went through the portal.

“So we did,” he said as he opened them at that nudge, seeing that they made it to their destination and nothing seemed to change, “that wasn’t too bad,” he admitted as he looked behind them where the portal had closed.

“So could I,” Cutter smiled down at Connor’s hand as he happily started to follow him down the street, “this is really nice,”

Well it hadn’t taken long for that word to reappear again had it?

Cutter smiled brightly at that, “oh, what place did you find for dinner?” he asked curiously, “even though spending more time at the museum sounds great as well,”

“I’m really glad we’re doing this,” he added, his smile widening.

Now Cutter was a little torn, on the one hand he did like the idea of spending as much time with Connor at the museum but dinner at an Italian restaurant also sounded nice.

“I do like the sound of Italian,” he admitted, “it’s been a while since I’ve had it,”

It was very cute.

Cutter smiled at that, “I do like the sound of that and …” his smile widened, “especially coming back for more visits, I’m sure we could make multiple trips ,” he added, tilting his head a bit at that.

Cutter definitely liked the sound of all those trips and he squeezed Connor’s hand in response, going slightly red as he did.

He smiled warmly, “I never thought any of this could ever be possible, thank you, it’s …I don’t think I can even put into words how much this does mean to me, being here with you,”

Cutter’s cheeks went red as Connor pulled him in to kiss his cheek and he just smiled happily at him for a few moments before turning his attention to the museum, “let’s go inside,” he smiled back at Connor with a nod.
