Quatre has a tendency to view parts of his life as projects. They have stages, with roughly forecasted deadlines, and detailed plans of action. This works pretty well for him, to a point.
The problem is: unlike projects, relationships can't exactly be checked off a list. It's not safe to put them on the backburner, or reschedule the review meeting for next quarter.
It's not that Quatre's been ignoring Trowa, because he hasn't (and he can't). But this morning he realized with a guilty start that he has been taking him for granted the past several months. Sure, he's been busy – he's a CEO, he's always busy (it's not a good enough excuse). He knows, too, that the main reason behind his cheerful taking-for-granted is because Project: Trowa Being Comfortable in a Relationship (with Quatre! The best part), has reached a successful close.
So, when he has a moment, he types a quick e-mail.

Trowa,
I hope your afternoon is going great! I'm sorry to hear about Catherine's cold, please pass along my sympathies. I hope she feels better soon, though I'm glad it's during time off.
Speaking of that, I was wondering if you have plans tonight? I was wondering if you wanted to have dinner around UTC 2300. Otherwise, I'm available this week for most non-work hours, except Tuesday.

Trowa would drink it if he didn't like it, too; he eats and drinks what he's given, as a rule. But he likes mint.
When the mug is about half empty, he shifts it to his right hand, and leans over for a quick kiss.
(There are a few reasons for this. Among them: the fact that it's pretty sweet when your workaholic boyfriend says he doesn't want work to impinge on boyfriend time; the fact that Quatre is always inordinately happy any time Trowa does anything like this; the fact that Trowa wants to.)

Maybe kissing forever is an unlikely goal, but kissing for right now is something he is all in favor of.
