Bring you back to grab your car later. Tomorrow, maybe. Of course, you can just follow me in your own car, if you’d like, but—” “I’ll ride with you,” Irving accepts, and Burt stops in the spotlight of a street light on the sidewalk. It’s quiet out tonight, and late enough that the world outside their shower of light is dark. It seems pitch-black, even, when Irving focuses on Burt and Burt alone; everything else just seems to fall away. “You’re sure you trust me?” Burt asks. “Sure, I’m sure,” Irving replies, and Burt meets him in a kiss."

irving and burt go on another date— and another, and another, and another— and decide it might be time to make things official between them.

I’m not sure that qualifies.” “Yeah, and you’re painting him a portrait, dude.” Dylan sweeps his arm backwards, motioning in a wide circle to encompass the entire contents of the room. “I haven’t even seen you go on a date ever. This is, like— a fucking marriage proposal from you.”"

irving prepares for lunch on saturday the only ways he knows how: painting and panicking.

Hel—” “Hello! You’re looking for something romantic?” the redhead cuts him off, nudging him neatly out of the way to take his place, claiming Burt’s hand to shake herself. “I’d love to help you. Why don’t you tell us more about Irving first, hm?” Her smile is buoyant. Disproportionately so. Burt detects trouble, but he’s uncertain how there could possibly be any."

burt decides to make his intentions clear, and helly decides to make mischief.
