Phoenyx
The phone rings three times.
"Hello?"
It is Phoenyx's voice.
"Hello it´s Skye, are you alone? I have something I wanna ask of you and it is a bit personal and hard to say, so please bear with me if it sounds odd or strange and kindly do give me a minute to collect myself in the middle if I need it."
Swallowing hardly, knowing that her next words could be crucial.
"Um, yes, I am alone. What is it you need?"
"Give me a minute here and please hear me out until the end ok?"
Taking a couple of deep breaths.
"This Sunday is Valentines day and I were wondering if you would do me the honor of going on a type of date with me, you can choose any activity you want. I know that you aren't interested in women so not a real date but rather one for us both to grow. After my recent failures in the dating scene so do I see that I still have a lot to learn in that field and no offense but I do think that trying and getting used to more social things might be good for you as well."
Calming herself down a bit before carrying on.
"So my wondering is if we could go on a date, treat it like a date until we both get back to the quarters at which point we can sit down and talk about it. You can tell me what I did that felt bad or wrong and if you have any wondering over the night so can we talk about it either there or when we get back. Naturally no kissing or deeper physical contact then a potential hug. Sorry for this weird kind of request, hopefully it doesn't sound to wrong. I totally understand if it doesn't feel right or if you wanna think about it. I do think that we both could grow from it though and if nothing else start to get to know one another a bit better, the better in synch we can get the potentially better can we work together. And there I am done, sorry for that long speech."
This Sunday is Valentine's Day....
"Skye...." The voice sounds exasperated as the Thyrsus begins.
She does wait until the explanation finishes before speaking again.
"Skye, I was not very good at dates when I was in a relationship. It is not something I particularly want to get better at. This whole idea sounds strange and awkward." There is a small sigh.
"I.... understand wanting to know each other better. We can share a meal together - I would rather stay in than go out somewhere however."
There is a deep breath being taken before replying.
"In earnest so do I doubt that you have any real issue any date is good if just end up having fun." There is a brief silence before she carries on. "This is the one day a year where I just feel far to lonely and I do not wanna spend the day alone."
"So how would you feel about you showing me one of your favorite dishes and we cook it together? We can also either go and buy the ingredients together as well if you like but that is less relevant if you send a list of ingredients so can I go shop for it to. And just to make sure it doesn't feel like a date so do we take normal clothes, you're usual training clothes is fully ok or any comfortable clothes you like. So we cook together and just talk then maybe watch a movie together or spar all depending on how we feel then and there. Does that sound ok with you?"
There's a hint of a sigh.
"Alright. I will send you a list of things. See you then."
