[He's going to freak out.

He's either going to freak out or throw up, he hasn't quite decided and though he's outwardly collected it's enough that if a person looks close enough they'll notice he's severely out of place.

It's a nice little club that Ryan's never been to and truth be told it's not really anything he would have picked on his own. He's not legally old enough to drink but that doesn't stop him from sitting at the bar with his eyes glued to his phone, frantically texting his twin.

It had been Sharpay's idea, actually, to accept the date from the boy in his composition class. His name was Alex and he'd been sitting in the seat directly to Ryan's right all semester. He'd noticed the type of music coming out of Ryan's iPhone a few weeks ago and struck up conversation about the New York music scene, and yesterday in class he'd suggested that Ryan meet him at this club to listen to this local band that's actually really good.

He tried to tell Sharpay it wasn't a date, but somehow the girl had twisted it and built it up in his head that it was.

So yeah. Ryan's not even particularly dressed for a club though the tight jeans and pinstripe vest sort of helped a little. His clothes cling to him like a second skin and his hat's tilted just enough to shield his face as long fingers fly over the keys.

Alex was supposed to show up fifteen minutes ago.

He hears someone address him directly though and his hands pause even if he doesn't look up immediately. At East, he always knew when he had people's attention. In New York, it was hard to say who was talking to who, but Ryan's the only other person at the bar besides the girl next to him (whose girlfriend apparently can't remember to clean her hair out of the shower drain if her life depended on it.) Blue eyes flick up from the screen to meet Elliot's face, ready to snap back something a little closed off when he gets a closer look.

...it doesn't help that he has a thing for brunettes. It also doesn't help that his eyes are a brighter blue than Ryan's. Are men allowed to look that good with make-up? What if he tried that? The most he's ever gotten away with is stage make-up that's not nearly as dramatic.

It takes him a few moments to remember what the question was and when he does he promptly feels that flustered sensation grip him.]


Please. Do I look like someone who gets stood up?

[Ohgodwhywouldhesaythat. It's defensive enough that he hopes to get the point across that he's not, in fact, some loser whose possible date hasn't shown up yet, but it's just loose enough to reveal he doesn't quite believe it himself.

Fuck.]

[Even if Elliot's not intentionally being mean, the laughter is something Ryan's highly aware of and his shoulders tense. He bristles a bit, not quite snarling but clenching his jaw as he looks the older man right in the eye.

...but Elliot's grinning.

...there's something wrong with this picture and he types out a quick "brb" to Sharpay before he sets the phone face-down on the counter. It vibrates five times in quick succession (most likely Sharpay just yelling at him) but he doesn't pick it up again. Instead he's just giving Elliot the most horrified look as he hears the drinks being rattled off.

First of all, fuck. Second of all, double-fuck. And third of all, what the fuck? It helps that he's an actor, otherwise he'd melt into Kelsi-levels of awkwardness. Instead he's just sort of blinking, lips eventually quirking up into a tiny, baffled grin.]


You always give screaming orgasms to underage guys?
choreographics: (And true the vision's hazy)

[personal profile] choreographics 2015-01-15 11:59 am (UTC)(link)
[The answer's obviously no, but both eyebrows lift in surprise. Oh...oh he's good. He narrows his eyes a tiny bit but not much to be threatening.]

I'm already here, so I guess I will. Am I right in assuming you're performing? [When the bartender returns he eyes one of the screaming orgasms, not entirely sure how to proceed from there. He's just grateful he didn't get himself carded, but he's pretty sure he has his fake ID on him anyway. He follows Elliot's lead though, picking up the glass.]

And I guess I'll never know. [He's not stupid. He knows what happens next, he's seen enough college movies. He lightly clinks his glass against Elliot's and throws back the shot--

--before practically choking on it. He coughs a little but he swallows it all down, doing his best not to cringe at the sharp sting of the vodka on his tongue. He'd done well keeping himself clean since starting at Juilliard...but he was feeling pretty miserable right now. He could enjoy a drink, right?]
I don't think I'm being ditched though. That would imply I had any hope at all.
choreographics: (Let us be grateful)

[personal profile] choreographics 2015-01-15 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[Congratulations, Elliot, that was indeed his first shot ever. It's not that he wasn't anticipating the burn of alcohol in his throat but anticipating and feeling are always two different things. Once he composes himself though he eyeballs the other drink. A hand wraps around the glass and he brings it to his lips, tentatively sipping it even as he glances around the club.

Somehow? Elliot performing in this place seems right on par.]


I think the jury's still out on that one. I've never been here before. [But the drink's good…and the company's not exactly hard on the eyes. So he smiles a little easier, tilting his head just so.] Somebody from one of my classes actually told me about it, said I should check it out.

[He sees the group of three girls in the back corner, watching behind Elliot as Dani works on breaking up Rachel and Santana bitching at each other.]

You guys any good?
choreographics: (Why I predict the Wizard)

[personal profile] choreographics 2015-01-16 07:27 am (UTC)(link)
[He doesn't respond, though he lifts an eyebrow higher. He doesn't frown or anything if only because that confidence is actually sorta hot. He's about to ask more about his music and his band when Elliot interrupts him, causing Ryan to change direction.

Girls are so weird sometimes.]


I'll think about it. Depends on when my date shows up. [Though he's pretty sure that by now, 20 minutes later, it's not happening.] Just don't get blood on the suit. It'd be a shame. [But he keeps his hand wrapped around the glass, fingers fluttering in a "goodbye" even as he keeps his eyes locked on Elliot.

As Elliot walks away Ryan picks up his phone to resume the text to Sharpay, sipping the drink idly and allowing the pleasant buzz to consume him as he relaxes in his seat. He follows Elliot with his eyes for a few months, watching him with the girls before eyeballing the stage.

...fuck, he has an early rehearsal tomorrow. Oh well. Staying for the whole show might not be a bad idea despite that.]
choreographics: (Goodness knows the wicked die alone)

[personal profile] choreographics 2015-01-16 07:50 am (UTC)(link)
[He's on his phone with Sharpay texting him until the three of them take the stage and even then before the set begins he sends Alex a text asking what the fuck is up. He puts the phone down again, steadily downing the drink in little sips as he watches the show.

Weirdly enough it reminds him of the Wildcats and how they all seemed so different but worked together to the point of being overly comfortable. And with that though, it just makes him a little homesick all over again.

The last song of the evening really showcases the talent of all three artists and Ryan notices the bar's significantly more crowded. He doesn't move from his seat though. He's still looking at Elliot on stage joined by a mousy brunette and a girl who could probably crush his balls with one hand and whent he set's over Ryan looks back to his drink to finish it.

When Elliot joins him at the bar again, he highly debates not saying anything. He thinks it might be best to leave well enough alone. Instead though he takes another sip and turns his head just enough for a better look.]


You guys are pretty good. Sounds like the opening act's still worth something.

[He's not meeting Elliot's eyes and his phone's still face-down on the counter. Instead he's tilting back his glass, trying to catch the last few drops of the drink.]

[The next morning had been a bitch and a half. In the last twenty hours Ryan Evans had been stood up, had his first real experience with alcohol, danced with a really hot guy, got jerked off in the bathroom by said-hot guy and then came home late and woke up with a hangover. He'd debated skipping class, but in the end he fought down the bile in his throat and sucked it up, hauling himself through a full day of classes. He didn't have a lot of time to think about the night before though when he approached Alex in class that day he just gave a sugar-sweet smile and told him how much fun he had the night before announcing loudly enough that he was so touched that Alex felt he could share the secrets about his STI with him but that it just wasn't going to work out.

Childish? But effective.

Thank god the next morning his schedule was a little less rigid and he could take it easy. The trouble with taking it easy is that he let his mind wander back to Starchild again and it made his brain hurt. He didn't have any classes or rehearsals until the afternoon so he took his time that morning waking up, reveling in the fact that all of his suitemates had to be out early that morning. He eventually emerged from his room around 10am after his morning yoga, ready to fight with the coffee maker and ease into the day when he realized that one of the useless people he lived with didn't buy anymore coffee.

And so his easy morning turned into "I'm going to leave passive-aggressive notes on the coffee maker before I get dressed and go out to the most hipster cafe I can find."

Turns out it didn't take that long. A friend of a friend had told him about this coffee shop not far from campus that he had to check out and so wrapped up in jacket and a scarf with a matching trilby Ryan Evans braced the chill autumn air of New York to walk two blocks. He had headphones in and he was absorbed with his music, practically dancing his way down the street as he ignored everybody around him, eventually making his way into the shop and up to the line at the counter. There was only one person ahead of him which gave him enough time to look around at the cafe and at the board. By the time he got to the counter he was looking down at his iPhone to swap songs, not looking up as he places an order.]


If I asked for a nonfat vanilla latte with two shots of expresso would that be possible, or do I have to go two blocks the other way to Starbucks?

[He can hear someone talking to him over his music and so he pulls out one earphone, eyes narrowed as he looks up about to repeat himself. It's only then that it clicks that the barista said his name and Ryan takes a closer look at who he's talking to.

At first it doesn't register and the blank look on his face says so. However, even without all of the make-up it's hard to forget the eyes and it doesn't hurt that there are star stickers all over the nametag. His own eyes widen and he actually has enough grace to feel really, really stupid as he practically yanks the other earpiece out, scrambling to pause Katy Perry from blaring everywhere.]


Oh my god, I'm so sorry. Hi. I promise I'm not actually usually a dick and I didn't even--[...wait.]

...wait you work here? [He's trying not to grin but it's pretty hard.] Rockstar at night, coffee bitch by day. Suddenly things make a little more sense.

[personal profile] choreographics 2015-01-19 08:04 am (UTC)(link)
[If it's any consolation Ryan's pretty much 100% apologetic and he's actually doing his best to avoid eye contact because he's realized he acted like a giant asshole. Nevertheless he quickly shakes his head, glancing up just once.]

No, um...here? I guess? I'm sorry it's been...[He waves a hand vaguely. It's not his place to bitch to Elliot about his life. He was a one-off, that much Ryan knew.] Here, please. I have a few hours to kill and I don't feel like hanging out at my dorm still. [And he tries to make it up with a charming grin.] So that's something you can make for me?
choreographics: (So though I can't imagine how)

[personal profile] choreographics 2015-01-19 08:29 am (UTC)(link)
Nonfat soy if you've got it. [He's leaning on the counter to watch, already acutely aware of where his wallet is and already making up his mind he's leaving a giant tip as an apology. He props his head up with a hand much like the first night they met, headphones tucked into his pocket and eyes wandering over Elliot's arms because hooooly shit. He doesn't say anything for a minute, and it's clear he's squinting a little to make out exactly what the hell's going on there. When Elliot speaks up though he just shrugs.]

It's nothing. Just...people being people. [A wry grin matches the friendly one.] You know how it is buuut it's really not an excuse to freak out at everybody else. [Despite the fact it feels good to bitch at somebody and Kelsi's not around to calm him down. Different classes today.] The last straw was having to deal with a bunch of inconsiderate suitemates.

And like I said, I have to wait until next year before I can even consider it. I know it's supposed to be this whole "getting integrated and socializing with your peers" and probably preparing all of us to not have jobs once we graduate unless you're really good but I swear there are too many people in too small a space. [But at least the grin's melting into something a little more natural and open as he watches Elliot work, fingers still drumming out the beat to the song he'd been listening to.]

If fate's disguised as someone not buying more coffee or washing the rest of the coffee mugs, then I'd believe it. [Aw, but he kinda likes when Elliot flirts with him. It's...nice. Even if it's completely not a thing that should be happening and isn't happening. Elliot's just Elliot and as far as Ryan knows he's only Starchild and Starchild's engaged with everybody.] By the way, you could have warned me the mai tais would give me a wicked hangover the next morning.

[personal profile] choreographics 2015-01-19 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I had to go to four classes back to back trying not to throw up on everyone I knew. I'm pretty sure nobody wins in this case.

[He's eyeballing that cup, tilting his head and allowing himself to fully grin.] Me too. I mean that whole evening started out as a complete flop but…you really made it something. Thanks.

[Part of him wants to say that they should do it again sometime, but he doesn't want to make this into a big deal. Casual. The whole thing has to be casual because Elliot made it casual first.]

Kinda gives me incentive to check out more places in the city, y'know? Plus I think if I spend any more time in my dorm than necessary I'm actually going to choke one of my roommates.
