Dating..or... The Date

[melagan.livejournal.com]

We've discussed 'Firsts' and believe me, I never get tired of that topic. Still as I'm sitting here thinking about our guys I can't help wondering about The Date.

The one where it's time to take the next step.*** The one where one or both acknowledge that this is more than a casual thing. A lot more.

Is it romantic? A midnight picnic on Vincent's boat and a proposal? A card slipped under a dinner plate in a fancy restaurant with a deed to some property with both their names on it?

Maybe it's just a quiet walk on the beach, a reach out of a hand and then ring slipped inside the other one's palm.

Commitment. They belong together and we know it. When do they discover they know it too?
