An unplanned second part...

This one is for Susan (Sylc) who asked what the pair get up to on their lunch-break!  She's a fabulous writer, and you should certainly check her out!

In a small Italian restaurant, a man wraps his fingers softly around a glass of fruity French wine before raising it to his lips, a distant expression gracing his

Kya! I love the imagery, especially the detail about Alex's glasses. That bit was the cherry on the top for me... Never knew that you could tell whether or not people wear contacts by the way they wear their glasses. *doesn't wear either glasses or contacts*

Again, very hot. And sweet. And subtle. I think you could have made it a bit longer... added detail about napkins ('cause you need napkins with pasta - yes!), how they eat their pasta, how they or whether they gesture when they talk over the meal, and how they become 'strangers on the street', e.g. do they walk in different directions, does one cross the road. I don't think you need have made up names either... *giggles* Yes, this fic had my muses buzzing excitedly... hope you're not offended. ^^;

It's for me? *blushes* Thank you so much. It's truly lovely! *memories*

*snicker* Odd you should say that... I removed most of the details and replaced 'he's with Theodore or Alex - originally, I just wanted to let the reader make up names and descriptions... I didn't even want to mention the hair in the first, but i needed a way to seperate them...

My reasons for editing out the detail were rather closely followed to that above - I wanted people to make up their own ideas.

Ha ha - I notcie the glasses thing all the time. If they're medicated glasses - then the person normally wears contacts, or they're new to glasses - if they're reading glasses - they need to wear them propperly - hehe. I don't wear my glasses propperly *shock-horror* which is why i know, haha.

I'll add the unedited version for you later if you like.

Thanks so much for all your comments!!
