cake, man. [xaier]

[attr="class","sinbody2"]Gino likes going to cafes, and this one is a pretty nice one. Normally, he'd already be inside ordering something to snack on, but instead Gino is staring at a sign standing next to their window. It's message is neat and tidy, written in pink ink and all caps:

"Cake couples day!:

All cakes half off for any couples dining in! Share some treats with your beloved significant other, today and today only!"

Gino stares at the sign with interest, brown eyes alight with a sparkle of excitement as he reads over the good deal. Besides him, he hears a gasp, and when he turns his head to see whom it belongs to, he's pleasantly surprised to see two ladies reading the sign themselves with a fervent passion. He keeps his gaze on them long enough to meet eyes with the black-haired one, and although there isn't a small that curves his lips, there's something in his eyes that makes the female grin something wide and bright. "Hi there." She grins, tone bordering on flirty as she puts her hand out for Gino to shake. He does so after a moment's contemplation, throwing away any initial hesitation for the promise of cake. He's checked this cafe's cakes a few days ago, and their cakes were expensive enough to make him not want to come whatsoever- 50% off though, that is something he can definitely deal with.

"So." Gino says instead of any introduction, getting straight to the point in the same blunt way he always goes about things. "We're lying to get the cake, right?'

"Hell yeah we are."

"Wait- There are three of us, and-"

Gino nods, and before the other girl can say anything, his eyes are already roaming around them. All he has to find is someone around their age, preferably male to even out the genders. Brown eyes scan over the crowd passing by idly, until he snakes his arm out to grab onto someone before they can walk past.

"Hey, I don't care if you're as straight as a board, can you pretend to date me so I can get a good price on cake?"

He stops for a moment, turning back to the two girls to see one of them laughing and the other looking shocked beyond compare. Belatedly, he realizes that pairs might have been two heterosexual couples or something instead of pairing up with whoever to get the food. Huh. "Or them." He adds on as an afterthought, "I don't even care if we choose to go the foursome route, I just want cake, man."
