A bar somewhere
“---Bold move, sitting with me so casually,” said Gilbert slowly as he took a long drink of beer, side-eyeing Alfred.
“What do you want?” He was simple, and abrupt, and his voice seemed a bit cold, but the reality was that it was very tired. Gilbert was tired. And Alfred did not have the tendency to make one less tired.
They had not spoken in a very long time, at least not anything more than business. And as far as Gilbert was concerned, that’s how Alfred preferred it. So what was he doing now, sitting with him?
