Did Myles ask for keys to get into Julien's apartment? And did Myles spend the day making an array of desserts in his kitchen for his birthday? Yes. Yes he did. Pumpkin bread, cream cheese stuffed caramel cookies, normal chocolate chip cookies, a strawberry peach cobbler, a few orange marmalade pastries, and kiwi creme tarts. Each neatly boxed or bagged on the counter, still warm. On the table is a rather expensive wine whose bottled date is Julien's birthday and a few orders of take out sushi. "I'd have made dinner but I don't trust myself for that," there's a shy laughter, but he's a bit excited- "once you're settled and we've eaten, I've booked us the evening at the infinity pool across the way - you know the one that overlooks the concert hall? There's a musician performing and we'll get to watch it from the water. I thought you might... enjoy that."
julien's belated birthday ✯ always accepting!!
For most, it'd be unnerving when another asks for keys to their place of living ( especially considering Julien's... hobbies ), but for Julien, he's simply a sucker for Myles through and through, handing over his keys along with an invitation to help himself without a moment of hesitation. Perhaps it's a show of how much he utterly trusts and adores Myles... or perhaps he's grown too soft on the other, as Takeshi would say, but in either case, when he walks into his apartment to the smell of sweets and patisseries in the air, he knows he can't even BOTHER to care.
There's no hiding the warm, soft smile that takes over his face as he takes in the state of his dinner table. Mismatched eyes trail up towards his paramour's face, strong arms reaching out to envelop the other in a hug that he hopes can only begin to convey his GRATITUDE for him. ❝ I enjoy it all, ❞ is his coarse murmur, temporarily choked up with the feelings of contentment coursing through his veins at that moment. After a moment, he pulls back, eyes closed as he places a long, TENDER kiss on Myles' forehead. ❝ Thank you, mon cher, for all of this. You are... incredible. ❞
