Severn stood from the chair and walked over to us standing at the dress shirt rack, smiling and more composed. “Please, forgive me. I had been hoping to have something showcased, I just didn’t imagine it would be Nelson Powers and…”
“Jace,” I said. “My boyfriend.”
“Oh my God,you’re one of us?”
Jace choked and I chuckled. Severn flushed a bright red and hung his head. “I’m just going to die now, if you don’t mind.”
I grabbed his arm. “I do mind. We need clothes for the awards!”
Jace patted his hand. “I get it. I do. Imagine how I felt when he started with a corny one-liner to pick me up at a bar.”
“That was a listening party.” False indignation dripped from my words.
“And I was at the bar.”
My eyes rolled dramatically. “Okay, fine. Technical point.”
“You two are delightful,” Severn said. “But since I need tonight and part of tomorrow to get your tuxes ready, let’s get to this.” He pointed to the wall of sample dress clothes there. “Classic for both of you?”
“For him,” Jace said. “I would like something with flair. Royal purple flair.”
A slow smile crept over the man’s face. “Really? Would you like to coordinate with Mr. Powers? Not match, but coordinate so that people have no doubt your together?”
“That would be amazing.” Jace grinned at me.
“Let’s get to work.”
