"Thank you," he said. He looked at Anthony. "You're a nice guy."

Anthony put his head on his hands, his smile still on his face. Was he not leaving, then? That was good. He liked that. "Thank you! You're real nice as well."

"I think you're cute," Tobias said.

No, he didn't. He was just drunk and very lonely.

Huh? Anthony stared for a moment. "Thanks," he said. "You're...cute as well?" That was the correct response, right? He didn't want to seem rude.

Tobias smiled and put his hand back on the man's leg. No one could see under the table, ha!

Anthony looked down for a moment as he felt the man touch his leg again. He was kind of confused about this all, but chose not to think about it too much. "Yeah..." Anthony nodded awkwardly, very uncertain of what he should do now.

"Are you alright?" Tobias asked.

"Mhm," Anthony nodded. "why are you doing...that?" He nodded in the direction of his hand. "I mean, not that I mind it or anything."

He turned red and pulled back his hand. "I thought...." Awkward. "Never mind..."

Huh? He was getting incredibly, incredibly confused. "Why'd you pull away? I liked it."
