elphrainAisik stared out the window most of the ride, twisting his wedding ring around his finger in a nervous habit, and feeling a little better when he noticed Vincent tapping his leg. At least he wasn't the only nervous one in the car. In fact, he'd go so far as to say that the three of them were probably the most anxiety-riddled of the cast, based on how things were back in the day. Maybe it was why, as Vincent had said while sliding into the car, that they all got along so well; they each knew when the other just needed peace and quiet, or to just be left alone. While him and the other man never really got close back during the original show, he would sometimes accompany Brinlee into Aisik's trailer, where they would all just chill out in companionable silence, reading or taking short naps with light music in the background.
Now that he thought about it, they probably spent more time together than they thought; they just never really got to know each other because most of that time was spent not talking.
As they arrived at the hotel and slid out of the car, Aisik took a deep breath. He hummed at Vincent's comment about his sibling, unsure of how the other man meant it, but pretty sure he didn't intend for him and Brinlee to hear. As the two debated who would go in first, he took another deep breath before stepping forward, smiling at the door man and turning around once inside.
"Well, I don't mind going in first, but I certainly don't want to go in alone." he spoke truthfully, trying not to let the nervousness shake his voice. This would be the first time that the whole cast was together since the original Edenridge, which meant catching up and talking about what everyone's been doing the past ten years.
No, he certainly did not want to face that alone.
The three of them reached the restaurant quickly, and Aisik smiled to see Bella already seated, looking magnificent as always; he hadn't realized that it had already been a little over half an hour since they all got her text, but he was glad that him, Vincent, and Brinlee weren't the first on the scene.
He bent down and gave her a kiss on the cheek in greeting before holding a chair out for Brinlee. "Well, next to Bella, I'm sure we won't be the only ones looking underdressed, so I'm feeling pretty comfortable." he joked.
