Benjamin gave the young man a small nod, a minuscule smile on his face, before assisting the employee who was going to use the Braille translation device. It ended up lasting for around five minutes considering that the blind customer had to take a few seconds before moving along with the translations, but aside from timing issues, there was nothing else going on which was considered a hindrance for the others. Once the blind customer left the bookstore, Benjamin was now questioned for assistance on comic books. Knowing that the newfound male would still be busy searching for his perfect title, it would be best to give him time to decide until he would make up his mind.
After ten minutes, the clients who inquired about the comics left, not intending to buy anything yet but may come back due to time constraints. And without hesitation, the half-demon decided to check on the boy whom he had conversed earlier, having to keep the walking as subtle as possible.

In the time it had taken the blond boy to finish with the customers and find Ozwald, the dark haired male had two books and a CD held close to his chest and was reaching to grab a third. His glasses had been removed and hung from the collar of his shirt. He was absentmindedly chewing on a piece of gum. Hearing footsteps coming towards him, he looked over to see the guy from before. Oz raised a hand to give a half wave. "I managed to find some stuff.." he softly spoke up, motioning to the items in his arms before turning back to grab the next book that had caught his eye. This one was a comic book as opposed to the two hardcover ones. He didn't have much knowledge of comics but figured now was as good a time as many to get into them. He also pondered what he'd do after leaving the store. Not knowing any places to hang out, he'd probably just end up wandering around till he decided to go home.

The sales associate took a glance at what the male had stumbled upon, considering them as interesting. "I have to say, those may be a good start. And there is actually a coffee shop nearby; some customers would go there after purchasing the goods here. I may suggest trying out the cheesecake slices with either tea or coffee. It depends on the flavor of the beverage as well as the toppings and flavor of the cheesecake." Mostly, it would be depending on the season in regards to the fruits, but chocolate would go all year-round. That was when Benjamin thought of another topic, as if a light bulb flashed on in his head. "Oh, and I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Benjamin Harris, just one of the many English lads living in Soleil at this moment. Care to cordially do the same as well?"
But unfortunately, he shouldn't force the other to reply. The other boy may have plans, like having to take care of the house since he was possibly a newcomer. But more importantly... there was a sudden longing, a flash of memory from the night at the Captain's Deck. No, he should control that urge and take his time.

Ozwald blinked at the mention of a coffee shop. He did enjoy a nice cup of coffee, or anything with caffeine really. "Oh okay I'll check it out, might be a nice place to relax and cheesecake does sound good." he said with a nod. When the blond introduced himself, then motioned for Oz to do the same, he cleared his throat and rubbed his head. "Ah right, my name is Ozwald Wolfram." he introduced, a small smile finally gracing his gloomy face. "What a funny coincidence, I happen to be an Englishman as well." A low rumbly chuckle escaped his mouth. Now that he was getting into the swing of actual social interaction, he seemed to be brightening up a bit. Though it only showed in his face as he didn't try to fix his normal slouching posture.

His baby blue eyes were showing a trace of astonishment at the discovery of the boy's nationality. "Frankly, such a small world it is, Mr. Wolfram... or should I call you Oz in case you prefer such formality to be eschewed? I have not seen so many people who were of a similar heritage as us," he spoke. Endo's image came into his head, though the reunion didn't last long due to personal reasons. And then, there was the memory of Night's gentle yet soul-stirring ministrations on him... Ben would admit that he was starting to fall for the bartender even more. Sadly, the next encounter between those two would have to wait.
"If you are not occupied with things, maybe we should start having our first casual talk as fellow British men at Moonbucks Cafe once my shift is over for today. It's until the afternoon for me," he rambled on. "But also, we may chance upon each other at each other's houses. I'm actually from Ombre." Maybe Oz would be his neighbor from the same district? The blond wasn't completely sure since he was too focused on arriving at his workplace to even notice.

Ozwald's face visibly grimaced for a moment before quickly relaxing. "Yeah you can just call me Oz, being called mister is a bit too formal for me. Not to mention it would make me feel old." he said with a sigh. Not that he was anywhere close to be considered old but the mind works in odd ways. He blinked for a moment at the offer to hang out, "Um yeah sure, I'm not doing anything at all today so I'd be happy to go with you." One of his eyebrows raised at the mention of where Benjamin lived. "Huh that's another coincidence, I'm from Ombre too. Guess that makes us neighbors and we'll be seeing each other often." That actually made him feel quite happy, the first person he really talked to also happens to live in the same housing area. Things seemed to be working out for him today, now he was glad he left the house.

The half-demon was pleased at the discovery about Oz was also living in the same district. "That's pleasant. Considering that I still have to be productive, perhaps I should give you my number and address," he insinuated as he picked up his pen and notepad. It took him twenty seconds for him to scribble out the details into the paper and tearing the page apart, passing it over for him to take. "I'll see you after six hours. I hope 6 PM is the good time for us to catch up, because that's the time my shift will end for today." And as much as he wanted to talk to Oz more, there was the tugging of a small child on his apron, staring at the half-demon with puppy eyes.
"I guess our cordial conversation ends for now. Nice to meet you again, Oz. See you later," that was his last talk for the morning before having to attend to the kid. At least the day wouldn't be so monotonous with his new British companion being the new mutual acquaintance.

Ozwald was slightly hesitant in grabbing the slip of paper. He looked down at it before safely tucking it away in his bag. Unfortunately he hadn't actually brought his cellphone out with him but would be sure to add Benjamin's number to it once he got home. He was quick to nod, "Y-yeah 6 sounds just fine.." he softly replied. Watching the child lead his newfound.. companion, away he went back to looking for things. By the time he had gathered two more books he noticed another person working a register but the blond boy wasn't in sight. Nevertheless he payed for his items, putting them safely in his bag and exited the store. Pulling his pack of cigarettes and his lighter, he lit one up and took a long drag before stalking down the street. He needed to kill some time before coming back to the store, so walking around would have to do for now.
After sitting on a bench and getting started on one of his books, he accidentally ended up falling asleep. Chalk that up to being up three nights straight with little to no sleep. He was thankfully shaken awake by a nice passerby. After asking the time, he was shocked to find it was close to 6. With a rushed thank you, he grabbed his bag and dashed back to the bookstore, hoping that Benjamin was still there. He'd have felt like a complete jerk if he stood up the first possible friend he made in this city.

The remaining hours had ticked by steadily, more so when the customer population wasn't that completely crowded. For his lunch, he had eaten sandwiches and drank lemonade as his beverage, the drink placed inside his thermos. By the time his shift was done, he was about to clock himself out of work, only to see that Oz came back for him. "Am actually about to prepare myself to leave the store. Wait for five minutes," he insinuated before leaving to the employee area. It did take a bit longer considering that he was double-checking to see that he wouldn't forget anything behind. Other than that, there was nothing else to worry about before letting the other leave the bookstore together with him. Considering that Oz was immersed with the books, based on what the black-haired guy was carrying, his friend wouldn't feel bored alongside the conversation that the two would be having later at Moonbucks.
More importantly, the view outside was lively, fitting to be put in every picture book that existed throughout Soleil.

Ozwald was glad that his new companion was still around. When he was told to wait, he leaned against the wall next to the door and sighed. He was feeling a bit nervous as he never really hung out with people before. His 'work' kept him far too busy to actually go out and talk to others. Which is why despite his nerves he was also rather excited. When Benjamin emerged from the store the dark haired young man eagerly followed him to the cafe. He was craving a cup of coffee right about now, plus something to eat. In another instance of him not caring for himself he hadn't eaten anything since earlier in the morning.

Another day of work at the bookstore, though today's a Sunday and Benjamin's current schedule for his shift was half-day, meaning he can go home at around lunch time. He did get what he was looking for yesterday at the public library, so he was able to see what he would like to try out next. In the end, the half-demon would go for a trifle, but that would wait till next time, possibly tomorrow or next week. For now, today was what he would focus on, more so when there were more customers coming by with the shower dissipating, at least for now.
He went along with the usual task of cleaning up the place and arranging the merchandise on the shelves, more so with the new arrivals thanks to the delivery this early morning, around an hour before he showed up to clock in for work. Because of that, 100 copies of the new novels were put on the shelves reserved for the ones fresh off the press. More would be restocked later depending on how well the books would be flown off the shelves by enthusiastic bibliophiles. For Benjamin, that was a sign of good progress, though there was something else tugging from the back of his head. That was none other than the thoughts of his conversation with Night the other day, while they were still enjoying the meals the bartender had prepared.
A chill ran down his spine at the memory, a pleasant one to be exact. God, his heart skipped a bit at the image of that red-head alone, and he was starting to get distracted. Coercing himself to calm himself down, he went on helping with some of the customers, especially the kids who were happy to get the comic books and CDs as part of their growing collection.

He promised to visit some time soon, so that was what he was doing now. Watching through the window, Night waits until someone has Benjamin preoccupied before he slips inside and hides. Now, he waits until the customers are gone and Benjamin is alone, before coming up behind him and covering his eyes with a hand and a chuckle."Guess who-o,~" he exclaims in a singsong voice as his freehand held a bouquet of sapphire orchids and white roses. He wasn't really the type to get someone flowers, but Benjamin wasn't just anybody to him. He is someone who was slowly growing on him, enough to fill his head with thoughts of him on most days.
Uncovering Benjamin's eyes, Night walks around from behind him with a large grin, his hand reaching the flowers out to hand over to Benjamin. Out of all the flowers he saw, the bright sapphire blue orchids stood out the most to him, so he picked those and the white roses out for them to make a bouquet with. Of course, because it was orchids, he was a little pricey, but it was worth it in his opinion. It wasn't like he really had anything he needed to spend his money on. A portion of the money that the forge made goes to him anyways since he was a co-owner. "How is your day so far? You aren't working yourself too hard are you?" He asks as he moves a little closer. He didn't want to take up too much of his attention if he became busy, but he wanted to follow him around and see how he worked at his job. He was a little curious as to how the bookstore was ran. It was certainly a different environment than his workplace.

The kids, being cheerful balls and energy and all that, thanked Benjamin and ran straight towards their parents. Secretly, Benjamin was envious of such childhood; his abusive uncle had taken that away from him, the scars being the trophy for enduring such early years of his existence. The he saw that his eyes were concealed by a hand and he was about to ask when a deep voice purred near him. That tingling feeling returned again, but this time it was due to the man haunting his recent occasional daydreams. Softly, he called out that name. "Night, is that you?
Thankfully, his guess was correct, more so when the bartender was the one giving him that bouquet of orchids that matched the color of his eyes. Not that far from the two, the few remaining customers saw the scene; two of them chose to ignore the two while the two females were whispering something. The girl's friend laughed, mainly due to intrigue and enthusiasm. But yet again, Ben ignored the talk, focusing on the flowers and caressing the petals gently with a finger. At Night's question, he fought the urge to blush like a schoolgirl, having to keep his composure well enough to craft a plausible reply. "Not too much out of the ordinary so far. I was able to borrow a recipe book about British desserts from the public library yesterday and I may try making some of them at home. Also, today's shift for me is half-day, so I'll be clocking out early at around lunchtime."
In reality, Benjamin had no other plans after the end of the shift. But since Night was here, checking out on him, some things may change. His smile was light as he spoke the next words, facing him after admiring the bouquet. "Thanks for the flowers; I may have to put them on the vase back home." But also, with a free hand, he rubbed the back of his own head. "Will you have your shift later tonight?" he asked; as much as he wanted to spend more time with his crush, coercion would not be a good way to start things off for another activity between the two of them. Rescheduling may end up as Plan B if that would be the case.

He paid no attention to the others around them, his focus entirely on his current company. His grin was charming as usual, his freehand reaching for the small of Benjamin's back as he moved to his side to walk with him. He may have been acting natural, but in reality, he was slyly moving Benjamin to somewhere surrounded by less people so they were not watched so closely."You work hard as usual, love. You really should take a break some time. We should go somewhere together and do something fun. Like a date maybe?" He suggests as they finally reach a quiet spot of the bookstore. He said it nonchalantly as usual, but he really meant them going on a date some time. After all, he did try to sleep with Benjamin and continued to spend time with him, even when they didn't do anything.
Nodding, Night leans closer to sniff the flowers, his hand still resting on the small of Benjamin's back. "They smell really nice too. I am glad you like them since I wasn't sure at first what to get. But I thought these really matched you well. Blue and white suits you. I almost got you something red to symbolize passion, but I am glad I picked these instead." Reaching his hand out, Night run's his fingers through Benjamin's hair, stopping at the back of his head so he could face Ben towards him and lean forward to plant a brief kiss against his lips. Not completely moving away, night keeps his face close to Ben's ."Actually, I am off today, so I was hoping to steal you away after you got off work."
