Lydia: hi do you know those stress ball things people have and squeeze instead of punching people??? just wondering do you happen to have one of those i can borrow

*whispers* Declan is always available

After all that built up and finally going to Florida, Kaleb had finally forgave himself. He let go a big part of his life and that was the attachment and the love that Jessica impacted on him. Jessica was the one person that Kaleb truly loved and even with all the fights they had, Kaleb would stay true to the woman. With how he acted and shut people out during his depression, he didn't want anyone to take pity on him. He wanted to be strong for people and yet everyone was asking what was wrong, why didn't he want to talk, and it only made Kaleb mad as well. But now that he was back in Denver, feeling better for the most part. He figured he would give a stop by at Declan's tattoo shop. Getting this tattoo would be another special occasion for him. One that would hold to his heart so as he stepped in he waved at Declan. "Hey man. How's it going?" @declankeating

Earlier that day Lindsay had gotten called into work and while Declan promised her it was fine, that he could go to the tattoo shop for a while, she still felt terrible. They had plans to spend the whole day together and here her job was ruining that. Karma she supposed for using the excuse of work on Thanksgiving when in reality she had just chickened out on meeting Simone’s mom. At least she was making it back home in time for dinner. It was passed the time they had made reservations for at one of their favorite restaurants but still early enough for dinner nonetheless. If nothing else they could at least get some takeout and snuggle up on the couch and watch a movie much like the time they first realized their friendship was progressing into something so much more. 

Approaching the door to the apartment she frowned seeing the lights turned off figuring he must still be at the shop but once she opened the door she was met with rose petals and candlelight. It was by far one of the most romantic things to ever happen to her and while months ago she would have rolled her eyes at the idea, living through it now all she could do was smile and get overwhelmed with the need to kiss her perfect husband. “Declan! Oh my God! You did not have to do all this!” Her arms slid up around him as she met him in the living room where he had set up some pillows in front of the coffee table so they could eat on the floor sounded by the roses and candles. “You’re amazing, you know that? Keep doing things like this and maybe just maybe I’ll marry you some day.” The brunette teased and brought her lips to his, kissing him softly. “This is so much better than having to go out to eat. Did you order food or cook something?”

Lydia: HI I DUNNO WHO THIS IS BUT I KNOW THIS IS MY BEST FRIEND'S NUMBER AND I AM DEMANDING YOU TO GIVE MY BEST FRIEND BACK OKAY ITS BEEN TOO LONG

Lydia: It's the aliens isn't it.

There was also another little discussion they needed to have. About the fact they kissed. There was part of her who was worried that it may have changed or made things awkward in their relationship. What had she thought? If he was fine then so was she. After all, a kiss was a kiss. It’s not like they had sex. Nothing changed, he was still her best friend. That’s all there was to it. Bringing two mugs of hot cocoa around to his room, Lydia used her elbow to push on the handle and let herself in. "Hi, just my few hourly stop to make sure you’re still alive,” She called out casually as she walked over to him. She really had no tact but she was sure Dec was used to it after knowing her for so long. “One for youuu,” Lydia said cheerily as she passed him the mug, clearing her throat to start saying something else. “Uh, so... we should probably talk.”

@declankeating

how long have you been aware of your sexuality/identity?

Since I was 13

do you feel pride in who you are?

Somewhat 

what’s an absolute turn on for you in people?

Kindness and humor

how do you feel about receiving questions about your sexuality/idenity?

I am happy that Declan found love again too, though it was certainly exciting for us to follow what he got up to when he was single. I think Regina recognizes that she’s got a keeper, and from what I’ve seen so far, I think they are trying to do their best to bring out the best in each other. You seem super sweet and I’m sure there are plenty of eligible bachelors or bachelorettes eager to be with you! I am curious though what other residents you think he has potential with? Just for my own interests, let me know!
