Bellamy gave a lazy three finger salute, "Punishment acknowledged and understood." Not that he was worried about being removed from the man's class. While he gleefully went out of his way to push the line of what was and wasn't acceptable, he knew when to back off. And for the time being, he would behave himself...as best as he could.<br/><br/>Asking the man out for coffee seemed to cause the elf to tense all over again, his gaze clearly unbelieving and no doubt wondering how many loose screws were rattling around in Bellamy's head. Given the nearly decade long gap between their ages, tradition dictated that the elf would naturally be the one to initiate anything between them. But Bellamy had never been one for societal customs and expectations, finding many of them to be limiting.<br/><br/>A slow smile lit up his face as the man accepted his invitation. The shifter rocking back on his heels, not expecting the forceful poke directed at his chest. His heart stuttering a beat at the trail of fire the other's finger traced down his chest. He cleared his throat as he took a small step back, "I don't mind walking."<br/><br/>Whatever flustered submissiveness the man had displayed just moments before had seemingly went up in a puff of smoke, and Bellamy found that he wasn't completely averse to it. Readjusting his satchel, he hurried after the elf. The sun shone hot and bright, offset by a cool breeze that teased the ending of summer. It was perfect outdoor weather and the shifter rolled his shoulders to shake the natural tension that settled when the urge to shift took him over. The thought of rolling and frolicking in the grass after an invigorating swim had him wanting to shed his clothes and embrace his feral side.<br/><br/>The silence and his thoughts interrupted as the elf spoke up. "I<i>didn't</i>think it was an appropriate question, which is why I asked it. And that is the going consensus, isn't it?" He rolled his eyes as the man went on about how 'kids' were these days. "You're not all that much older than I am," he muttered. Age hadn't been a deciding factor in his on going attraction to the other man. Even if he did have a habit of pursuing older. "Did you like my gifts?"
