[Gift] Coffee beans

Griswold was generally not in the habit of leaving the house, he would usually spend the whole day working on his research, reading a book or working on his personal projects. He was a rather lonely succubun at times but it wasn't unpleasant or sad in his eyes. Especially because at home he already had the company of his vampire pupils who were dedicated to learn from his teachings when they had classes or even the company of that "wolf" who rarely left his side.

That specific day, that same bun had tried to ask him several times where he was going and why he didn't seem to want to explain what he had been doing the last few weeks without explaining anything. This was just Gray's outings to the cherubuns' embassy where lately he had gone to complete some tasks for Primrose and a few other buns as well.

Of course, this, wolf did not know. Wolf was his boyfriend's self-proclaimed name. 

Now, as he left his house on his way to the heavenly embassy he couldn't help but feel that there was someone following him and he had a pretty good idea who it might be. "Magnus Wolf... I can feel your gaze, come out wherever you are." That vampire exclaimed as he glanced behind him only to see the aforementioned one emerge from behind an alleyway almost with his tail between his legs out of apparent grief at being caught following his boyfriend out of jealousy. "Sorry..." Gray heard coming from Magnus. Griswold could only sigh as he smiled patiently at him, opening his arms for him to come to him, watching as that man quickly changed his countenance and ran to hug him lovingly and rather clingily.

Gray could only chuckle a little as he resumed his walk now with Magnus behind him, knowing that he definitely couldn't stop the wolf from following him that time. "I don't mind you following me or seeing where I'm going, I'll simply ask you to behave yourself. I know where we're going you might not like it too much..." That would confuse Magnus a bit, but he wouldn't complain, just contentedly wagging his tail like an imp, happy to accompany his boyfriend. "Come on, you know who you're talking to, there's no place that can take me" he would say proudly pointing to himself, making Gray only a little nervous, as he sighed, noticing that Magnus' excitement could only make him see a little Wulven imp in his boyfriend.

"If you're so smart, then I hope you don't make a mess where we're going." Gray would say giving him a careful kiss on the man's cheek as he pointed to the embassy, of course, this made Magnus almost look like he saw a ghost, since immediately his tail stopped wagging and he didn't seem to understand why they were going there. What business did they have as succubuns in a place full of saints? That was the face Magnus had and Griswold saw despite not being able to read his thoughts. "I came to pick up a box of coffee beans for Beanny's coffee shop. Remember that coffee shop I took you to last week? Paradise coffee..." This would make Magnus look surprised and Gray could only laugh slightly chagrined. "Did you turn delivery boy or what?" It was his boyfriend's disbelief that made Gray laugh the most, who could only deny it as he walked beside him inside that embassy.

"No. I'm simply here to fulfill a favor for an acquaintance. Primrose, the manager of this place is very busy and sometimes requires other buns to help him. A few weeks ago I was here volunteering, and today I came to help him deliver those coffee beans to Beanny."

After entering, Gray made sure his boyfriend wasn't going to steal or break anything in that place while he looked for Primrose, whom he would approach upon seeing him apparently watering some plants in the garden. "Primrose! Hi, sorry for the slight delay, I came to pick up the delivery for Beanny, I'm accompanied today." He would point to his boyfriend, who would only seem to raise his middle finger at Primrose causing a big scare in Gray who would quickly put Magnus' hand down as he apologized deeply. "How embarrassing, I'm really sorry for his attitude, he's not used to getting along politely with other buns yet..." under Primrose gray's judging gaze could only apologize while telling Magnus that he better wait for him outside as he didn't seem to have any intentions of apologizing. "I don't know what happened, but I assure you it wasn't personal!" That man would still exclaim in sorrow as he watched Primrose just sigh and with a serious face ask him to accompany him to the warehouse where they had the order for Beanny. "It's okay, I understand, you shouldn't worry so much, patience is a virtue, Donovan. And working with many succubuns of all kinds has granted me more than you think." That said by primrose could only calm him a little as he received the box of coffee beans, smiling at that Cherubun.

"Thanks for the understanding, Magnus isn't that bad, he can just be a little jealous at times.... I'll get this as soon as possible to Beanny and I'll come next week to water the plants as we agreed." After saying that and saying goodbye with a big smile, he would walk out of the embassy looking around for his boyfriend, who was sitting like a scolded little impup on the ground outside the embassy. "Magnus... My sweet wulven, I didn't get mad at you, although I did ask you earlier to be respectful didn't I?" This would make Magnus seem to look a bit more like an Impup as he turned his face away, standing up in grief, just wanting to make a bit of amends for his behavior.... Of course, he said nothing just offering him his arms to help him carry the box of coffee beans in a gentlemanly manner in silence with that chagrined face that rather looked angry. All this would only make Griswold laugh tenderly, giving her a quick kiss on the lips before starting to walk away still holding the box himself. "Don't worry, like I said before I'm not mad at you, come on, we'll drop these coffee beans off and have a drink together there, you think? I brought some extra carats in case you'd like something to eat too." Gray knew he had done well as he watched Magnus' tail begin to wag back and forth happily despite his still somewhat annoyed face.

After a somewhat pleasant walk of the two of them chatting, they would have arrived at the paradise cafe, Gray entering with a big smile as he smelled that delicious aroma in the air.

"Welcome to Paradise café, may I know what you would like to drink?" That pleasant voice would come from the Cherubun behind the counter, who had a big smile on her face as she seemed to put aside her coffee machines for a moment to attend to the customers that had entered, quickly recognizing one of them as Griswold. That succubun who had been visiting his coffee shop almost daily in the past and without saying anything would always stay for several hours at one of the tables in the back while he wrote things down in his books. Beanny could not deny it, from time to time she was curious to know what that man was writing down in his notebooks, although she never asked him not wanting to interrupt his work and well, they almost always had enough work attending to many customers in those hours as well.

"Well, if it isn't Griswold, the writer? You come for the usual today? I had already thought something happened to you after you stopped coming in for your daily Late coffee" She would say with a smile as she leaned back on her counter, though she would notice curiously that box Gray and his companion seemed to be carrying.

"Some things happened, certainly my life has changed quite a bit since I stopped coming.... But that's a story for later, today I came to deliver this package for you, it's coffee beans from Primrose from the embassy, she asked me to deliver them to you today as she was too busy to do it herself. And well, we could say that on the way my boyfriend decided to accompany me and what better than to take the opportunity to have a few cups of coffee together." That man would say smiling kindly as he carefully left the box on the counter, noticing Beanny's excitement at seeing how at last her order had arrived. "Excellent! I was already starting to worry about running out of ingredients, though I didn't think you would get involved with the embassy, not to offend or anything, you just don't look like the kind of bun that would want to understand the virtues" this would only make Gray scratch the back of his neck slightly in mild embarrassment as he watched Magnus watch everything from behind him, apparently hugging his abdomen and hiding behind his back.... Gray could tell it was mild jealousy again. He was used to it by now.

"If I'm honest... As an investigator it was inevitable that this whole thing with his arrival caught my attention, and once I started investigating I couldn't help but become increasingly interested. So currently I've been helping Primrose at the embassy as much as I can. But well, first of all... I think Magnus and I will take something from the menu as we speak. After all, my work here has already been done." He would say since at last, he had delivered that order, now only remaining to rest next to his boyfriend who seemed glued to him, only being able to laugh a little, patting him on his head, disarranging that tousled hair of his.
