[[FLASHBACK! San Francisco, the last days of summer, 2021]]
“I am afraid I can’t do that. This is destiny, Darling!”
Kaz had wanted to get away from the crowd for just a little bit, deciding to sit up and alone-well he thought alone- until Eros had just.. appeared. The words that had summoned him were along the lines of, “I don’t ever want to find love.” After he had been hit on a few times and asked if he had ever been in love before. The answer was no and he never wanted to, but that response had warranted the God of love to start spewing to him about how it is already in the cards for him. Something that had Kaz groaning over the loud music. “But destiny and I are not friends. Love is just.. a fleeting thing. Something you have to nurture which I am not good at. Doesn’t that also include I don’t know, being nice and shit? Listen I’m not cut out for that-” Kaz had been cut off and just as he looked towards an outstretched hand that had followed an ask to dance, Kaz turned to look at Eros as if wondering if this was who he had meant, but he was gone. Poof with the fucking wind. Great. Now he had things to think about what he didn’t want to think about even a little bit. “Sure. But stop staring at me I don’t like that shit.”
He later found that man to be Heather. And unlike his normal meet ups during this time of year, he kept coming back to the other man. Actually enjoyed his company even though it never looked like it. Watched his twitch streams, Played video games with him. But in the back of his mind were the words Eros had said to him that day. Destiny.
