Open to: Everyone; anyone friend or foe who might / want to run into him

Demetri left his townhouse and headed down the street. He opted not to take the carriage, preferring to walk. It was mid morning, not too early, but early enough that the shops and marketplace were not to crowded. He had the latest letters to be handed off so they could be delivered to his brothers and sister.

Demetri knew it was risky, writing them after so long, even more so going to see them, but it was a risk he was willing to take. They were family, and yes he wanted to protect them, but he missed them even more.

He smiled and nodded to passersby as he continued walking, grinning as the group of girls started giggling once they were behind him. If only it was a day for frivolity and not business, he thought ,even as he passed the theatre. That was a depressing thought to him as he reached the corner and paused to grab a paper. Demetri scanned the front page at first.

News lately did not make him happy even though he had to pretend most of the time that it did.

	Nell nodded, repeating the name under his breath so he wouldn't forget it. He smirked, turning on his heal and ran towards the theatre to tell Harry about their good luck and new client. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Demetri watched Nell as he moved across the street quickly. Of all the things he thought he'd see, or the people he'd meet today, that was certainly unexpected but not a bad thing at all. He continued on his way down the street albeit a little faster than the stroll he'd been earlier.

His face grew serious though, as he took the letters, the ones not for his siblings, no the ones anonymously written. One was for the newspaper, one was place to find it's way into the hands of government officials, or the army, it mattered not.

That being done, Demetri crossed the street and headed back to the Bridge Theatre. He didn't need directions for it was familiar to him, at least in passing. He smiled as he approached the door and knocked, tipping his hat to a few people who walked by on the street behind him as he waited.

It was Harry Fisher himself that opened the door, answering the young man's knock. He'd listened to Nell's excited chatter, and then sent the boy off to get himself ready. He looked the young man over quickly, matching him up with Nell's description. "Mr. Alexandre?" He asked, and stepped away, allowing the man room to step inside the Theatre foyer. "Nell was very eager to see you. He's reserved you a very good seat for this evening's performance."

Nell came out of the side door, into the foyer of the theatre. He was washed and brushed, dressed quite well for the occasion in well-tailored trousers and shirt.

"Oh, you're here!" He said, delighted. Harry had, as always, told him off for not getting the payment for ticket up-front and for assuming the man would come back as he promised. It was nice to prove Harry wrong for a change.

Demetri smiled as the door opened and the older gentleman answered the door. "Yes that I am. And whom do I have the pleasure greeting?" he said as he nodded and walked into the foyer.before turning back to the other man. "I was very glad for the invitation. Nell was very convincing. And speaking of the ticket...."

He trailed off as he heard Nell's voice and smiled. "Back as promised." He grinned at Nell.

Demetri turned back to the other man. "I'm afraid I sent him off earlier without paying for my ticket. I do hope you forgive the oversight. How much do I owe?" He could be called many things but a freeloader wasn't one of them.

"Harry Fisher, Mr Alexandre." He greeted the other, ensuring the door was shut behind him. "Nell is always very convincing and charming, sir. It's in his nature." He explains, and then glances around at the young man who entered the foyer. "There you are, Nell. Your guest has arrived."

He turns his attention back to Demetri, and smiles slightly. "The ticket is a half shilling, sir. If you would be so kind to pay now, separately, then I will be able to ensure your seat. They sell very quickly in the afternoon."

"Please to meet you Mr. Fisher," Demetri said and smiled at him. The name was not unfamiliar to him; he just hoped the same couldn't be said for him.

He glanced at Nell. "That's a good kind of nature to have, especially in these times.

Demetri reached in to his money and quickly took out the necessary shilling and handed it to Harry. "Half shilling it is. No point in letting debts add up. And I've heard the shows are very popular. I wouldn't want to not be able to see it." Demetri looked at Nell and smiled. "Thank you again."

	Nell smiled widely again, looking between Demetri and Harry; more than delighted to have brought in such a rich customer. "Are you two done here with your business?" He asked, "I've got my room all set up. Nice new sheets, lovely and clean." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Demetri smiled, he couldn't help it at Nell's enthusiasm. "I believe our business is concluded.... for now," he said looking at Harry. "I don't want to keep him from the evening performance later on." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Harry nodded once, "I think we are finished for the moment. Enjoy your afternoon, Mr. Alexandre." He said, inclining his head. "And I hope to see you this evening." He adds, glancing to Nell before excusing himself from the room. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nell's smile grew wider still, and he gestured for Demetri to follow him though the door and back into the corridor that lead to the boy's rooms. "This is my room." He explained as they reached the end of the corridor and he opened the door. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He smiled at Harry and nodded back to him. "I'm sure you will." Demetri followed Nell back through the corridor of the theatre and to his room. He looked around; it wasn't anything spectacular but it was cozy. "I like it. Is it all yours, by yourself?" He took his hat off and set it on the nearby chair. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Nell nodded proudly, going to the bed and smoothing down the new covers he'd put on. Nice and white, not as fine as the gentleman was probably used to be very grand all the same for Nell.
"Of course it's all mine. We're a proper establishment here, set up to cater to only the best. We all have our own rooms. Harry saw to that. He didn't want us being just another knocking shop with it going on out in the hallway when rooms weren't free and what-not." Nell said, his smile again rather proud.

	Demetri grinned. He could tell Nell was very proud of everything and he should be. It seemed Harry was taking very good care of everyone in the theatre. "Harry seems to have taken very good care of you all," he said coming over and sitting on the bed next to Nell and smiling at him more. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Mmm, he does." Nell agreed, smiling. He shifted a little closer to Demetri, reaching up to brush his cheek. "Do you know what you want?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Demetri smiled and slid an arm behind Nell, resting his hand on the bed, the gentle touch surprising but he liked it. "I suppose just saying you would not be of any help would it?" he said, chuckling lightly.

He leaned forward, closing the gap between the two of them and smiled as he kissed Nell. Demetri slid his hand up off the bed and gently pressed it against Nell's back.

Nell smiled, laughing a little.
"Not really. Don't worry about asking for it, I know some people feel they shouldn't but I'm here to make you feel good, not judge what you want."

Nell kissed back, wrapping his arms about Demetri's shoulders, letting him take the lead. Some of the other boy's had rules about kissing but Nell couldn't see the reason behind it, it was hardly more intimate than what else they did.

Demetri couldn't help but smile at that either. "You'll always make people happy just saying that." He kissed the other again as Nell wrapped his arms around him, and he found he liked it very much. "I want to see you Nell." He leaned back a little and brushed his fingers against Nell's cheek as he stood up and started removing his own jacket and started unbuttoning his waistcoat, keeping his eyes on Nell.

Nell drew back from the bed, standing up and he couldn't help but giggle, he always felt a bit tense at first whoever he was with, specially the first time a client came. It took a while to get to know what people liked and Nell didn't want to put anyone off.

He unbuttoned his shirt slowly, slipping it from first one shoulder than the next before dropping it on the floor and kicking it away. Turning, to give Demetri a better view of what he was after, he slid his trousers down over his hips, stepping out of them - naked now. He didn't bother with anything underneath, no point when he spent so much time out of them.

Glancing back over his shoulder Nell smiled.
"Did you mean like this?" He asked.

Demetri was undoing his cravat and getting his shirt undone as saw Nell's shirt move across the floor and looked up. The boy was a sight and Demetri knew he wasn't paying nearly enough. He smiled and it spread into a grin. "Just like that. You are quite beautiful Nell."

He continued getting his own clothing off, pulling his shirt next, a flash of a rather bad scar over his ribs and back before Demetri turned around to face Nell. Soon his breeches, stockings and shoes were off as well, all place on the chair with his jacket and then he moved closer to the bed.

Nell tucked a strand of hair behind his ear, a blush rising to his cheeks. He never tired of compliments, especially from such well-healed young men like Demetri. "Thank you."

He frowned a little as he saw the scar, but knew better than to ask about a thing like that, especially so soon but all the same to roused his curiosity.
He crawled onto the bed, laying out and smiled up at Demetri.
"Did you have anything in mind?"

Climbing onto the bed as well, Demetri's fingers moved to Nell's cheek again and he smiled at the blushing. He thought it was endearing. "Thank you, Nell."

He saw Nell's face as he saw the scar and wasn't surprised. The leftover remanants of a poker game gone bad and Demetri on the wrong side of a dagger. "It's not pretty I know."

Demetri leaned in and kissed Nell again, smiling at him. "I want to be inside of you, to make us both feel good." He pulled Nell closer to him. "Is that alright for the first meeting with a new client?" he said grinning, hoping to make things easy and lighthearted between them.

Nell looked away, frown deepening. "Sorry, I didn't meant to be looking. I don't mind it and it's not the worst scar I've ever seen." He reached out to touch and then thought better of it, but smiled at Demetri. "It makes you look a bit dangerous, really, I wasn't expecting that of you. What are you? Some well-to-do army officer?"

Nell's smile widened still. "More than, sir." He said, kissing Demetri's neck softly. "Although, really, I should be the one making you feel good. Do you know which way you want me? On my back or hands and knees, or something else?" He whispered.

Demetri shook his head. "No don't be sorry. I'm just a bit self conscious of it, that's all. Some seem to think it makes me flawed," he said, smiling back at Nell. "But dangerous... well I rather like that. If you want to touch me Nell, I do not mind. I like being unexpected too." He grinnned and reached up, stroking back Nell's hair. "No not an officer, though that would have been interesting. Just someone who finds himself in the wrong place more often than not."

He grinned and leaned his head back, giving Nell more room, a small groan coming from the back of his throat. "I assure you, you're doing an excellent job of that." Demetri licked his lips. "Can I have you in my lap? My shoulder and side... it's still sore even now.... it keeps the weight off. If you don't mind. Besides, that way, I can look at you," he said happily.

He reached out, running his fingers gently across Demetri's side. It reminded him of the one's Harry had from the street fights he'd been in when he was younger. He'd always found those attractive too. He glanced back up at Demetri, speculative smile on his face. "Spy then?" He said with a laugh.

"I don't mind." Nell promised, rolling Demetri over and straddling his hips, leaning down to kiss him again, grinding down against him.
