“Why’s Angel telling me to tell you to text them?” Reno could feel the smirk growing on his face. “Something you’re not telling the class?”
Sebastian blinked a few times, still waking up. “I was up late texting them. Let me sleep.”
“Seb.” Reno nudged him where he’d kicked and Sebastian winced. “You used to tell me everything.”
“Then I found out how fucking annoying you are.” Sebastian settled his head against the window, looking like he’d doze back off. “We’ve just been chatting.”
“Text them back. They finished the song.”
“Oh?” Sebastian perked up and pulled out his phone. Reno tossed his headphones over and Sebastian put them on. Reno peeked at Sebastian’s phone and found an impressive number of notifications from Angel before he tilted the screen away and said, “Bugger off.”
Reno scoffed. “Fine.” Instead, he turned his attention out the window. The view was pretty dull, but they’d be in the city again soon.

Hey, just checking in on you. Some girls at work were talking about you earlier
Daisuke! Hi! Everything is good.
I'm not very surprised, what was it about this time? How's the symphony? Hope the girls pay attention to you and not me most of the time ;]
Haha, funny. I'll tell Xiang and the kids you say hello
Work is great, consistent. We're working with a theatre for the upcoming fall season which is different. Nice to get a break from classical for a moment.
The girls were saying you have a stalker?
Wrong. I do not have a current stalker haha. Well, not one that I know of, anyway.
Weird, why would they say this then?
I've been seeing someone, rumor mill is going around. Too many eyes on me all the time.
I'm so glad I do not have your life.
Wait, this would be the first since…
Yup. Haven't been involved with anyone for about ten years now.
Sounds lonely. I'm glad you are talking to someone again. It's about time.
Give me a year, I'll be married too
You're insane.
I’ve gotta get to sleep. Xiang says hi and she misses you. Let us know next time your group comes around Shanghai. We will make you dinner and you can tell my children I used to be pretty cool too. They don’t believe me.
Of course, you were always the cool one
:,) Goodnight
Sebastian was fully awake now, his fingers flying over his phone to text Angel back, and Reno pulled his headphones off of Sebastian’s head.
“Song is amazing,” Reno said.
“A marvel,” Sebastian replied, not taking his eyes off his phone. “I don’t know how they do it. I would have never thought of that bass line.”
“And you think of plenty they would never dream up.” Reno put the headphones around his neck and relaxed back into his seat. “But really, what’s going on there? With you two.”
