“Classy, eh? Is that what you thought I meant?” They grinned at him as they picked up the coffee they'd both just worked on securing near the edge of their desk and took a sip. They frowned at the cold beverage before setting it back in its designated safe space. Swallowing down the less than appealing drink they waited while he sorted through the fancy looking folio.
Of course, he had a fancy looking folio. As if his dress and demeanor wasn't enough to be intimidating he had to appear brilliantly organized and put together.
They cocked their head curiously as held the papers towards them. Taking the small stack, they flipped through them quickly, scanning the contents therein. After a few seconds they finally realized what they were. “Oh! Okay, thanks.” Blue eyes skirted upwards to look at him again, there was something sheepish about the crooked curve of their mouth. “I didn't know I'd lost those. Thanks a bunch for bringing them back.” Their gratitude, though genuine was mixed with something else. An embarrassment perhaps, because the papers he'd returned were very old. Old enough that Andi didn't need them anymore and possibly shouldn't have been toting them around in the first place.
They were, in a word, trash. They didn't want to admit this, given how proud he looked of himself. They set the papers over their keyboard. “Thanks for coming all the way out here…” they let the words trail with an obvious inflection that he'd never given them his name.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
