Re: In person: Dietre / Hugh
Any particular worry floated away with the confirmation that Hugh really wasn't imagining something here. Diretre liked him, enough to be with him and for it to be official, and to not be thinking about other people. And maybe there were still nerves, and maybe there would be until it actually worked, but for the moment, he let his worry disolve into a brilliant smile at Dietre's tease.
"Oh god, don't make me feel like I'm robbing the cradle," Hugh laughed. He slipped his fingers into Dietre's and tried not to think about the fact that he was actually thirty, because he didn't really feel it. And... it didn't matter? Certainly he'd dated at least a few people with this age-difference & maybe a few additional years between them in the other direction. "But, truthfully, you can call me whatever you want darling. Boyfriend, lover, your best boy," it was Hugh's turn to tease back, because Dietre had teased him and Hugh loved this side of Dietre, the one that had confidence and the willingness and confidence to throw something out to Hugh with that little smirk. Hugh realized he was becoming really fond of it.
