He was glad that when Rik texted everyone that Luc said he and Cordelia were going to go have dinner together at epcot. That meant that he and Rik could drag Demetri to the sci-fi dinner. The place was neat and the food was good and they even managed to keep Demetri from doing anything silly in the cars. He'd even managed to get Dem a drink with this funky glowing cube thing it in without having to try to convince someone they were old enough for alcohol.

By the time they'd made it back to the hotel the blond was bouncing off somewhere and he drug Rik back to his room. "So, you said we could talk after dinner."

"I did, didn't I." He murmured, distracted momentarily by taking his time to look around Lysander's room, idly noting the difference between the ones with one bed and those that came with two like the one he was staying in. "So where are we starting with this conversation?"

"Could start with you asking earlier about making me stop frowning after you basically asked me why i wasn't just off with someone else while you were gone." He walked over and flipped on the light above the bed before looking back at Rik.

"We could." He nodded slowly, running his fingers back through his hair before glancing over at the other young man. "I thought you were a free spirit, Lysander." There was a light trace of smirk in his tone; a hint of tease that didn't quite make it up to his eyes. "Telling me you actually want to be tied down?"

He looked back at Rik, jaw set in a way that made him look older than he was, slightly disappointed again. "There's a difference between being a free spirit and a doucebag. Yea i'll date more than one person at a time but i'm not going to do it without making sure everyone involved is okay with it."

"I didn't think you and I had ever decided that we were dating." He glanced down at the look the other was giving him, shifting to lean back against the dresser. "I mean I know we've been hanging out, fooling around and all that..." He just hadn't thought it had gotten to the point that they were actually serious about whatever it was that was going on between them.

"I don't want you taking that as I'm not happy to see you, though. I am."

"But you don't want to date me." Which should have been pretty obvious. Lucien was here and Rik had gone off without him so, well were it him he'd be trying to use the vacation as an excuse to spend every bit of time alone with the other guy he could. "Which i understand, disappointed, but i get it." The disappointment was obvious in his voice. He had gotten to like Rikard in the time they'd spent together but if the other guy didn't like him there wasn't much he could do about it.

"Lys." His brow was furrowed now as he pushed away from the piece of furniture, making his way over to where Lysander was standing. He paused for a moment not far from the other young man before reaching out, brushing his fingers lightly through his friend's hair. "Were we dating? I mean, I know we never talked about it, but... Were we? Really?" There was a slight trace of hopefulness despite the tight lips and the knitted brow; like he wanted to believe that -someone- might want him around.

"I'm not usually the guy that people date... Not for long, at least."

"I'd thought we were" He reached up and caught Rik's hand with his as he met his eyes. "I mean i'm a bit of a manwhore but i'm not a slut. I don't do the stuff we've done with people i'm not dating." At least except for that one time but it didn't count

"I don't know why people wouldn't want to date you. Everyone's got faults and you'res aren't like psychotic episodes or anything. Just teen angst."

"... We weren't dating the first time." The look on his face shifted into a full blown smirk at that as he leaned in, lightly brushing his lips against the other's. "So we're dating? Officially now, since we're talking about it and all. No questions?"

"Okay that was so you." He grinned. "Not that I was going to say not to a hot guy but still." He grinned and slid his arms around Rik's neck. "Officially dating. Sounds so formal that way you know."

He slid his fingers though the other's hair before catching his lips in a quick kiss. "Means we can holds hands and everything and i can totally make out with you under Cindrella's castle or something equally cheezily romantic."

"... Unless you were planning on trying to talk Cordelia into that." He managed a wry grin as his fingers slid slowly along the other man's back, arms slipping around him firmly.

"She thinks i'm gay remember?" He grinned. "Little hard to convince a girl to make out with you when they think that. Plus I'd then have to get you to kiss me again after that and somehow i don't think you'd really like the idea of making out with your ex vicarisouly though someone else."

"Y'know, every now and then I'm pretty sure she and I just tell people we've dated each other just so we can say we've dated anyone at all." He smirked as he stepped back away from the other young man, making his way slowly over towards the window so that he could check out Lysander's view. "I think we maybe held hands once or twice. There might have been a peck on the cheek, but we were young... And pretty stupid."

He paused to think on that for a moment before glancing back over his shoulder at Lysander. "Not that I'll admit that to anyone if you say anything about it."

"Really? Cause with that rack i'd think she could get anyone she wanted." He laughed as he stretched. The view from his room was nice. He'd gotten a room on the corner so he could see out over one of the hotel's lakes. He would have found a better room if he was just there himself but since he'd wanted to get a room near the others rooms he had to take what he could get.

"So you guys dated at like that ... thirteen or something?" That was young and stupid for him usually.

"If you asked me? Honestly? I don't think she likes letting people get that close to her. Yeah, some of that's just based off of things recently, but..." He waved his hand lightly, shaking his head slowly before running his fingers back through his hair. "She just clings to that stand-offish b***h facade like it's the only way she knows how to be... And I know it isn't. Not because of when we were dating, but because I've seen her with Luc. And Dem, for that matter."

There was another brief pause before he glanced over at Lysander. "Fifteen. Well. Closer to fourteen, just turned fifteen."

"She loosened up with me a bit but i think some of that was just because i was a stranger. Easier to talk to soemone who doesn't know your past and whatnot." He shook his head before wlaking over to wrap his arms around Rikard's waist and leaned his chin on the other man's shoulder. "Could teach her lto live a little. You know i'm good at getting people to open up to me.

Though after what she'd told him it might take a bit more work than usual but he could do it. "Mm ... that's not that young and stupid. Only a year ago." At least for him that ahd been a year ago, almost two now though

"Two years ago. Three once our birthdays come 'round again." He nodded slowly. "Cordelia turns eighteen this September. I'll be eighteen in November." He shifted slightly, leaning back against Lysander's chest. "... I still have feelings for Luc, you know." It was probably the wrong time to be saying that, but he felt he needed to put it out there. "I don't know what kind of feelings, but I care about him."

"Mm ... for once not older boyfriend. How fun." He grinned as he settled his own weight so that Rik leaning back against him didn't unbalance either of them. "I figured you would."

Actually he figured that Rik would eventually leave him for Luc but he tried not to worry about that too much. He'd known from the start that Rik had someone else he liked anyway. He just didn't want to mention that in case it ruined what they did have

"Every now and then I wish I could just make them go away, but... I mean, I know it would be a lot easier." His brow furrowed, eyes closing for a moment as he ran his fingers slowly along the other man's arm. "Doubt I deserve this; you being here and all. Kind of feel like a real a**..."

"I can't really say much. It's not like i haven't had feelings for more than one person at a time. It'd be a d**k move to do it myself and tell other people they couldnt." He tilted his head slightly so he could lean it against the other man's. At least for now he could content himself with having Rik and whatever happened later would happen. Luc might come around and he might not, who could tell.

"I didn't come here because I knew Lucien was coming. I actually didn't know until after they'd gotten their rooms and tickets reserved." He hadn't known what to think, actually, about getting to spend that much time around Lucien again.

"It's nice getting away from the City, though, isn't it?" His brows lofted as he attempted to change the subject for tha moment, a smile curving his lips. "None of the usual weird s**t. It's a whole different world out there."

"It is nice getting away." He nodded. Though god knows what was going to happen to the youma population without him around to mop it up. It would probably be swarming with the things when he got back. "No costumed weirdo's and the only 'monsters' are ones that are suppose to be here and will happily stay on their respective merchandise." It was odd though that the Negaverse had targeted Destiny City rather than some place like this. There were so many more people here.

He was glad that his back was to Lysander and that there wasn't enough of a reflection in the window for the other boy to be able to see the slight twinge of color on his face at the mention of 'costumed weirdos'. "I'd think people would pay more attention to that sort of thing here... Probably for the best that all of the strange stuff stays back home." A light smirk curved the corners of his mouth as he closed his eyes. "... We should go see the fireworks tomorrow. All of us or something.."

"Never know. There's already plenty of people here in costumes. They just have to look like characters." He grinned and tightened his arms around the other man slightly. "The ones at Epcot are supposed to be the best. Which would mean good food then fireworks." As long as they could keep Dem from running around like crazy or something. "Maybe Cordelia will even want to go wander around the parks with someone other than herself too."

"Going to see what you can do to talk her into it?" His brow quirked slightly as he tilted his towards the other young man, lips lightly brushing against the curve of Lysander's jaw. "Just for the conquest? Or to actually be a nice guy?"

"I kinda feel bad for her and she needs to get out some. If she just plays anti-social the whole time she wont actually feel better when we all get back home" He tilted his head slightly at the brush of lips. "And who knows. Maybe after my talk with her she'll open up to Luc a bit. They are family so he should be able to help a little."

"Can't really imagine what she's going through myself, to tell you the truth. She and Gabbie were close; hot potential girl on girl moments close, from what I saw at Christmas." His words were still spoken softly, lips still gently brushing against the other young man's skin. "Don't know what I'd do if I lost someone I was that close with..."

"I'm going to be good and not think about Cordelia and her deceased friend doing naughty things." He shifted his grip and slide one hand up under Rik's shirt. "You'll have to invite me to christmas this year. I'd be sad if you were off having fun without me you know." He didn't want to think about loosing anyone like that. He didn't always really get close to his friends but he knew it would probably hit him pretty damn hard if any of his friends did get killed. He knew he had his own secret life that was dangerous enough and knew that other people had it too but he tried to hope that no one he actually knew was one of them in case he got news that they'd died.

"I was invited along for Christmas last year... Hadn't had any plans. Parents took off out of town last minute and decided that since I still had class up until the holiday started that I would be fine on my own." He snorted softly, letting his eyes close for a moment. "Luc invited me back to the Cardens' with him... So I wouldn't have to be alone."

"At least you know he cares about you enough to do that." He managed to keep any hit of disappointment out of his voice as he spoke. "I guess we'll have to see what we're doing about christmas when it gets here then. Depending on who wants to do what with who." he laughed softly before shifting so he could turn Rik around. "But that's all slightly depressing. We're at disney, in a room with a big soft bed, suppose to be enjoying ourselves right?"

"Either that or he just felt bad for me. I was pretty pathetic last Christmas... Those snow globes really didn't help a damn either." He managed a smirk as he was turned, eyes meeting Lysander's as he looked to him. "I have been enjoying myself. It's been a good trip so far... Lots to do, lots to see..."

"Or maybe he wanted you to have fun for Christmas too. Shouldn't always think that the worst option is the true one you know. Isn't healthy." His arms draped over the other's shoulders again as he grinned at him, eyes bright. "Have a whole new range of things to do now though, with me here"

"Honestly?" His brow lofted slightly as he shifted in Lysander's embrace. "It's taken a lot of energy just trying to keep up with Dem lately... Would you mind too much if we just kind of... I dunno, curled up tonight?"

"That would be one perfectly acceptable thing to do with me." He grinned and nudged the other back toward the bed. "Make yourself comfortable. I'm just going to fiddle with the air so it doesn't get too warm in here over night." He could deal with ruining Disney's sheets with Rik some other night. It wasn't like they weren't going to be here for a while and have plenty of opportunities to do all sorts of things.
