with rasmus 

Ethel had warned him (why, why did he even consult her about the matter?) that

calling was probably not the best for him because of his constant inability to form coherent, fluid sentences, and that texting would prove that he wasn't 'too old',which Rosario didn't understand, because it wasn't like there was a major age difference between he and Rasmus anyway... right? 

in order to not seem to clingy, it was best to wait a minimum of two days. The soldier wasn't too fond of this either, since it implied that this... thing he was planning was more than two friends who met at a bar and decided to meet again... right? 

telling Monsoon about the thing wouldn't be too wise, but he knew that already (right?).

they should take a stroll in the snow and look at the lights. Rosario agreed wholeheartedly to this.  

So when his schedule cleared one evening (and Monsoon appeared to be in a genuinely good mood) he pulled out his phone and sent a text to his newest contact.

The bar was, more or less, a whole in the wall. That was one of the reasons why Rosario was so drawn to it. Small. Quiet. People kept to themselves. "... What are you drinking?"
