the earth has music for those who listen
"Mmm... not necessarily, I don't think," Mateo says, thanking the baker and accepting his pastry, before nodding to Ever and stuffing a large bite of it into his mouth as they walk. "The other times I've looked it's been different. Sometimes there's no... extra bits. Or rope. Maybe it just depends on what feels good for certain people?" The explanation comes between snatches of turnover, Mateo fumbling for his keys once they reach the greenhouse and shouldering the door open once it's unlocked.
"Sounds like they weren't expecting to talk to you about it," Mateo says with a smile over his shoulder. "My dads were a bit similar when I walked in on them the first time. But I just asked them not to be so noisy and we haven't really talked about it since." Putting down his pastry to go to the ice box and get out some water for Ever, Mateo has to dance over vines and duck under hanging plants to make it happen, but he does succeed.
"One day, sure," He grins, about the doing it aspect of sex, returning to Ever with a tall, cold glass of water and offering it out. "But I don't know that I want to right now? Maybe that's what your parents meant about the age thing. Like... I don't see anyone our age near Molly's. They're all older - the people who work there, and the people who go in."
