If it wasn't evident from all the shuffling and fixing of his clothes Leigh was doing in the mirror, he was nervous. How could he not be nervous when this was the first time he was going on a public date...well ever. He had been insistent he didn't want to go for a while, Leigh didn't do well with crowds and much preferred to stay at home but Irene had reminded him that many potential investors for the cafe were going to be at the party. In the end he had reluctantly agreed, how bad could it really be right? A bit of dancing...listening to people talk about themselves and maybe some food.

He was trying to convince himself it would be okay, fumbling over the invitation the other day when Eun had come over for a surprise visit, they had been more common lately. Their relationship felt like it was at the start of this crazy big journey Leigh didn't know yet and while Leigh knew things were complicated, more complicated than he wanted to admit. The kitsune was happy beyond belief. Of course Eun had noticed his nervous state and asked to see the invitation before insisting he was coming along with him. In one part Leigh was relieved he wouldn't have to face the party on his own but on the other, the therian was worried about showing the not so great parts of himself.

Like this one for example, Leigh could barely breathe because of the nerves he was feeling as he did up the buttons of his suit jacket and then headed out into the lounge. He smiled because Minha ran over to greet him and he laughed under his breath "I know I look like a penguin" he responded as he scratched under her chin and then behind her ears. When he heard the doorbell Leigh snapped out his daydreaming and headed over to the door, opening it without hesitation. It wasn't Eun he was nervous about seeing but Leigh did gasp as his eyes trailed over him "Wow..." he spoke softly and blushed a little "You look amazing...I mean you always look amazing...but...your hair" Leigh swore he had never felt so attacked by a forehead before in his life. Of course before he could reach for Eun, Minha was already pushing her way between them, vying for Eun's attention "I think she missed her cuddle buddy" he spoke softly.

He shrugged and cleared his throat as he attempted to make it seem more optimistic than it probably was "I mean... if we look at it from their perspective, it's not... a bad thing when you are financially stable and have more than enough to afford another wife... or two. Or three more. But yeah I can see why... it's yeah" He gave up trying to explain by the end because Eun too, was not a fan seeing as their first wife get sidelined by another mistress that the man was likely to divorce before the month ends. "Rich people are... weird, Leigh. I stopped trying to understand them a long time ago and just did my job without looking back" It helps when he closed himself and stood far from such a circle despite working closely with such people.

The elder Moon knew not to get himself involved when he does not need to. He chuckled softly when the kitsune pointed out how the man sounds horrible "All the bad people are... very cunning when they want to be. It surprises me how they can be more cunning than my kitsune..." He stroked his hair gently and brought his hand down to tilt Leigh's chin, softening his eyes as he looked into the other male's dark hues "Yeah, don't argue with me, I argue for a living and I never... lose, baby. I don't like losing... hate to break that streak now, right?" Eun emanates a certain dominant aura sometimes which comes with the whole work he has on the line.

"But just between us... I would let you win any day Leigh... you know that right?"

Money meant nothing to me if he couldn't fulfill his happiness and with his work and high-profiled clients, the dhampir has made plenty of them, more than enough to last them for a while to live a comfortable life. He just wanted a simple life with the man he loves. He was elated because he knew the day to meet Leigh's parents was coming very soon. When asked if he wanted to come back to Leigh's place, the dhampir hummed softly in affirmation as he clasped his hand around the kitsune's "No other place I'd rather be..."
