Gio snorted "Yeah that's going to be a no from me," Vano was fucking relentless. At first Gio had liked the attention from a really hot guy, liked how into him said guy was. Now it was way too fucking much.

Gio raised a brow "You know.... Cuz this isn't serious," he shrugged a bit running a hand through his hair. "I don't expect you to-I mean..." He didn't know how to say this without either sounding like a dickhead or like he was fishing for compliments or some shit.

"I'm not saying you don't like care at all. You don't wanna hear about my shitty day though. That's not what this is yeah? Like yeah we talk but we don't talk. This isn't... romance." Even if Sergio had maybe let his brain go there a time or two. Because he was dumb. "So maybe I said it wrong but-I know better than to get all deep with someone. I like hanging with you. Like messing around. Don't wanna run you off with me bitching and whining. Kills the mood."

Gio didn't do roots or strings because that's how you tripped or got choked in the not fun way. The last thing he wanted was to be the guy who wrapped his string around someone's wrist and have them cut it.... He maybe needed a better metaphor. Point was he didn't make things more than they were. He wasn't a guy who got more. And he didn't want it either.

"Come on think bigger," Gio said with a laugh. "I tell you that I'm going to give you the best day ever, anything you want. I'm talking bucket list kind of things," Gio said with a grin.

Was he presenting this to the other as a hypothetical? Sure but he was taking notes, he didn't often have long term connections with people but he liked spoiling people when they were in his life.
