giovanni was planning on avoiding romey until... well, forever. her sudden burst of emotion that sheโd had the last time theyโd seen each other-- the insistence for him to just let someone in-- was too much for him. he just wasnโt ready for that yet. he didnโt know if he ever would be. but, of course, with some cruel twist of fate, he had to end up at the same bar as her. because his life couldnโt just be easy, right ? luckily, she hadnโt noticed him. or, at least, he thought she didnโt, and he was fine with that. and heโs waving over the bartender to get himself a drink when he feels a presence by his side, gaze lifting from the counter to meet her eyes,ย โ...ย romey.โ he breathes out in a moment of stunned silence,ย โuh... whatโs up ? you good ?โ
