"What are you doing here?" Neville asked, taking his hand away from Charlie's as Sonam continued to watch.

"I was…" Sonam looked at the empty spot where Neville's hand had been in Charlie's and after a brief moment, looked up. "I came to see a friend but he ended up not showing up. We had made tentative plans to meet for a drink but I reckon he's still at work."

"He?" Neville asked with an eyebrow raised.

"It's not like that," replied Sonam.

The last time Neville had seen the man autumn leaves had just started to change colour. He'd only been dating Sonam for a few weeks when Neville had found out he wasn't out to his family. They didn't last long after that. Neville was a cautious one, but he wasn't one to live in a closet.

"Do you want to grab a seat?" Neville asked, looking at Charlie, "That okay?"

"Yeah, sure. Any friend of Neville's…" Charlie said getting up and he grabbed an empty chair for Sonam to sit on. "Everyone comfortable? Want me to get you some beers?"

"Sure. That'd be lovely," Sonam said. "Same thing you're having."

Charlie nodded once and walked away. He didn't ask what Neville wanted to order.

"So, he's quite…" Sonam said, watching Charlie walk away.

"He's simply my Spanish tutor," replied Neville.

"You hold hands with all your tutors?" Sonam said with a flirty laugh. When Neville didn't reply, he continued. "You look good though. And clearly doing well for yourself."

"I told you…Charlie's just giving me a hard time. We're not involved. Besides he happens to be my closest friends' brother."

Sonam opened his mouth to say something but Charlie had returned. He was holding two pints and one cider. The cider, Neville assumed, was for him as he'd never really developed a taste for regular beer.

"Thanks," Neville said as he took a sip of his cider. When he looked at Charlie he found Charlie watching him. He gave Neville a wink and then turned his gaze towards Sonam.

"So, Sonam, is it?" Charlie asked and Sonam nodded. "Got any dating tips for me?"

"Pardon?" Sonam asked sounding confused and Neville nearly spit his cider out.

"Charlie…"

"I mean…you two used to date, right? I can feel the tension. But clearly you're now on amicable terms so, you know, I'd like a few tips, thanks." This entry was originally posted at https://digthewriter.dreamwidth.org/791628.html. Thanks for reading
