"I think outside. It's a nice night and we're able to see a lot of nice things from here."

He guided them until they were sat down and looking at menus. Miles hadn't realized how hungry he was until right now actually. The food really looked more amazing than usual because of that. Humming in thought, he opted for some fish in a wine sauce. It sounded amazing.

"So what brought you back to France? Just missed our beautiful country and the pleasant company?"

[rapatrier]

It's definitely a nice evening to sit outside. Taraga settles in, setting his sketchbook on the table to one side. They can look over it after they've decided on food. Pot-au-feu, not his usual fare, but he has a light and early lunch so something a little heavier sounds good.

"I live here," he says matter-of-factly. "I split my time between here and Seoul."

[artsavior]

"I honestly can say that I'm glad your time is split back here for awhile. I do really enjoy having you around." A little serious but he meant the words fully. There was just something about Taraga that was so refreshing. That really brightened things up for him, especially during trying times like these cases. In fact...

"Give me a moment." A smile and he got up briefly after their orders were in to go make a call. It took some convincing but when he came back he certainly had news.

"I have the time off if you're still wanting me to go on that honeymoon with you. I'm really sure I could use it right now." He was going to wait but why bother? Why not just take life by the reins for a change?

[rapatrier]

Taraga perks up, all smiles at the news. "Does that mean you're accepting my proposal?"

[artsavior]

He laughed with a bow of his head before gazing across at him again. "Looks like I am. How could I not?"

[rapatrier]

Taraga can't stop grinning. He reaches across the table, palm up in invitation.

"I told you marriage was our fate. I planned to leave Wednesday. It's not far by train. Or if you're feeling adventurous, we could go on my bike."

[artsavior]

He'd really never interacted with anyone before the way he did Taraga. It was nice and kept things fresh. Already he could feel himself being lighter as he reached to take that offered hand and even to bring it up to press a kiss to a knuckle.

"Let's be adventurous. I've spent a lot of time behind a desk lately."

[rapatrier]

Taraga's eyes narrow suspiciously. "You're not the kind of cop who can write me a traffic violation, right?"

[artsavior]

Miles laughed and kissed his hand again. "I do not have the power to do anything about traffic violations. I promise."

[rapatrier]

"Okay. We'll take my bike then." Since Taraga drives like a maniac... He just wanted to make sure his now-confirmed cop fling didn't have the authority to write him up for it.

"I knew you're a cop."

[artsavior]

"I never said I was a cop. Just that I can't do anything about traffic violations." He laughed though and lowered their hands, content to just hold him like this.

"I have a habit of going too fast myself too though."

[rapatrier]

"Never said you aren't a cop, either," Taraga points out with a smirk. "I have a spare helmet so you don't have to worry about that."

For a second, he just gazes across the table at Miles. It's funny how much he missed the guy in his time away. It's funny how he didn't realize it until they ran into each other again.

"Have you spent much time in Southern France before? Shall we get married tomorrow or just continue living in sin?"

[artsavior]

"Well, I'm not a cop. I can tell you that very easily."

He chuckled then considered his questions. "Honestly not a lot of time. Though if you're from there that must mean you may still have family there. So if we're going to be having our honeymoon we should get married for your family, no?"

Miles grinned after then leaned forward like he was sharing a secret. "But if you are the one I was to live in sin with it would be well worth it."

[rapatrier]

Oh, that grin couldn't get brighter, or more suggestive. Taraga leans closer, too, dropping his voice.

"Sinning is something I'm very good at. But I'd change my ways for you."

[artsavior]

It was like they were making wedding vows here and now. Impulsive and yet meaningful desire the joking air. He smiled and gave his hand a squeeze.

"For you I'll commit myself to sin a little more to match you changing your ways for me."

[rapatrier]

"If you're serious... I know someone who works at la mairie. We could get in as soon as tomorrow to tie the knot." Is he serious? It's hard to tell with those sparkling eyes and that playful grin that won't fade. Is Taraga wild enough to marry a veritable stranger? Is Miles daring enough?

[artsavior]

"Is that only because the office is closed now?" He laughed softly but it sure seemed like they were just going to do this. Impulsively get married to each other. Strange how it didn't feel wrong actually. It felt like this was how it was supposed to be? "Otherwise we could run there after dinner."

[rapatrier]

He nods and lifts up his free hand, index finger extended upward. "Bingo! It's only because the office is closed now. One phone call and we're in tomorrow. I guarantee it."

[artsavior]

He laughed and nodded. "Tomorrow then. If you like, you can spend the night at my place so we can go there together."

Apparently this was happening. Well, he couldn't say he regretted it. There was just something about Taraga that he was so drawn to.

[rapatrier]

"Nothing like spending our last night as singles sinning, hm?" That fingers that was pointed upward drops down, trailing lightly over the back of Miles' hand. "I'll text my friend."

[artsavior]

"Is your friend going to be confused by your sudden marriage announcement?" That would be funny actually now that he thought about it. Taraga suddenly showing up with him to marry him.

[rapatrier]

"Probably," he quips. "She thinks I'm a free-spirited sort who can never be tied down."

[artsavior]

"Until you became a free spirit with a... Ah! I need to get you a ring!" How could he forget that? Obviously he'd have to find him one after dinner now.

[rapatrier]

That gets a blink and then a laugh from Taraga. "Listen, if we can't find a set tonight, I'll take an IOU on the ring. Maybe we can find some we like on our honeymoon."

[artsavior]

"Deal. We'll look tonight and if we don't find one then we'll look again later." He looked down at the hand he was holding, conveniently the hand he'd put the ring on in the first place. "Your hand will look good with a ring on it though."
