Xavier was in love.

Yes, the man has had many flings, before and throughout med school— which he’s still in— but this… person.

They just.. Clicked with him. You. The Creator damn it all, he thinks he found his soulfinder, since you were born within weeks of Xav.

He’s panicking. Obviously. He’s in Venice, watching you play extra for a movie, all the tall people they could find— him included— gathering to get makeup and hair and costumes done.

Xav walks over to where you’re laughing ans talking Italian with some guys who are waving fake rapiers around and joking they’ll fight for your hand.

“Challenge accepted!” He grins dorkily, waving his own fake rapier towards the main dude while you giggle away madly.

This’ll be entertaining.
