• He cocked a brow as he watched her from his spot against the opposite watch, he'd been following her discreetly, watching her slip from bar to bar and he had to admit he was slightly intrigued - and confused - as to what exactly she was doing. Ashing his cigarette to the side, he headed over to her, his brow - with the scar running through it - arching curiously. "Not exactly showing the little mermaid here, luv." His low voice rumbled from his throat as he approached her, clad in a black tee shirt, black jeans and a long black duster. He looked the epitomy of a 'big bad' but had the ability to charm the pants off of any female who looked twice at him...literally. (NT) -- Kaden, Sun, May 15 2005, 9:25pm PDT

• Her breath caught softly at the sound of his voice, but it took her only a moment to put on a pout - lightly glossed lower lip jutting out. "I lost my jacket..." Hugging her arms tighter around herself, she straightened a little, eyes drifting briefly over him. For whatever reason she hadn't expected to run into any familiar faces out there, much less him, but masked her surprise in her seeming dismay at losing her jacket. (NT) -- Ella, Sun, May 15 2005, 9:43pm PDT

  ---

• That didn't answer the question that had been in his eyes but he shrugged off the heavy duster anyways, draping it over her shoulders. "Late night, isn't it?" He questioned again, this time a little more probing. She didn't look as if she was in any sort of trouble so maybe she was just out exploring the 'front. That was completely reasonable but for some reason it just wasn't settling well with him. It wasn't answering his questions or letting his mind rest so he had to conclude there was another reason she was out there. A hidden man perhaps? Bad boy she didn't want anyone to find out about? That was a joke, he was the big bad, as far as his past went. No guy she could be shaggin' could compare to him. (NT) -- Kaden, Sun, May 15 2005, 10:01pm PDT

  ---

• She made a point to ignore the questions in his gaze and just smiled as she pulled his warm jacket tighter around her shoulders. "Thanks..." Her voice was quiet in the night, features softer in his company than they had been just moments before - her priorities had shifted for the time being. "It is getting kind of late..." She agreed with a slow nod, still speaking softly, head tipping back a touch as she looked up to him. (NT) -- Ella, Sun, May 15 2005, 10:19pm PDT

  ---

• He shifted an arm so that he could rest his hand on the small of her back, tugging her closer to his side as he cast his piercing gaze around the bar before he cocked a brow. "Want a drink? May help warm you up a bit, pet." He urged her towards the bar counter with him, not waiting for an answer, even if she wasn't in the mood for a drink, he could use one. (NT) -- Kaden, Sun, May 15 2005, 10:28pm PDT

  ---

• She moved easily against his side, a hand absently brushing a slow circle over his back before they moved towards the bar, a soft breath slipping from her lips. "Just a Corona, please..." She requested and then shifted herself onto the edge of a barstool facing him, eyes on him while he ordered his drink, and then speaking. "So what brings you out here tonight?" She regretted the question after she had asked it though, because she didn't want to lie to him if he reversed it on her - though of course she wouldn't tell the truth... (NT) -- Ella, Sun, May 15 2005, 10:34pm PDT

  ---

• He cocked a brow at that. "Sodding beer, yeah? Figured you more a whiskey girl." He shrugged, ordering her what she requested and then two shots of jegger for himself. His eyes went back to her briefly before he looked back to the 'tender. "No one to watch Disney with and it wasn't nearly as entertaining all by meself." He winked lightly at her as he handed her the beer, tilting his head to the side. "And you? What brings you out here?" He grinned, rolling his eyes. "Whats that line all the poofs in the states use? Oh, right, 'Whats a girl like you doin' in a place like this'?" (NT) -- Kaden, Sun, May 15 2005, 10:38pm PDT

  ---

• "Not tonight..." She explained, shrugging a little - the quiet night had put her in an off mood to begin with, and running into him was nice, but a little difficult given her circumstances. She smiled quietly and then laughed softly, shaking her head slowly, gaze on him. "Just out for some fresh air..." Such a lie, but all of a sudden she couldn't think of anything else to say. "Had to get out of the house." (NT) -- Ella, Sun, May 15 2005, 10:48pm PDT

  ---

• "Mmm, right and smokey bars are the best place to get some fresh air." It was obvious he didn't really believe her story whole heartedly but he decided to dive any deeper into her reasoning for being there, instead just enjoying the fact that he was there. He took his shots easily and then pushed the glasses back, shaking his head when the 'tender asked him if he wanted another. Once he started really drinking it was rather difficult for him to stop and he didn't want to become a puddle of mumbling British euphanisms in front of the pretty girl. (NT) -- Kaden, Sun, May 15 2005, 10:55pm PDT

  ---

• "So let's get out of here..." She suggested, after only a couple sips from her beer. She just wasn't in the mood for that place that night, especially with him - two many lines were being crossed - and wanted to get away. She hadn't picked up that cash that she needed, but she would just have to put in a full night's work tomororw, and she didn't have much of a choice now anyway. It was warm now at the bar, but she held his jacket tight around herself still, head tipped a little forward. (NT) -- Ella, Sun, May 15 2005, 10:59pm PDT

  ---

• He smiled at the sight of her in the duster, the long dark leather setting off her bright innocent looking eyes. It was sexy in a strange way that would appeal to him, of course. Setting down some money for the drinks, he nodded and stood up, motioning for her to lead the way, following close by as she headed out the door. "Were you planning on walking home alone then, silly chit? Didn't plan your night out to well." (NT) -- Kaden, Sun, May 15 2005, 11:07pm PDT

  ---

• "I know, I know... Didn't really think ahead..." She smiled a little bashfully - though of course she hadn't really planned on going home till much later, and then likely would have called a cab or something - but then was silent until they were standing outside in the cool air with only the dim light of a few scattered street lamps. Turning to face him, she shoved her hands into the pockets of his coat and tipping her head back a little, a quiet smile touched her fine lips - just the lower portion of her milky legs and delicately sandalled toes the visible flesh now thanks to his oversized jacket, but she was comfortable. (NT) -- Ella, Sun, May 15 2005, 11:13pm PDT

  ---

• He smirked a touch, his hand slipping to her lower walk as he nodded towards the beach on the other side of the road. "Up for a walk?" He questioned, his eyes drifting over her. He had never really been overly sensative to temperature so he was completely comfortable in just the short-sleeved tight black tee he was wearing. It was funny, he really was a hopeless romantic deep down inside, he had just never met the girl that brought that out in him. (NT) -- Kaden, Sun, May 15 2005, 11:27pm PDT

  ---

• "Just what I was thinking of..." She informed him with a nod and leaned ever so gently against his side for guidance. Once they reached the sand, her fingers of one hand curled around his arm for support as she reached down with her other hand to pull off her sandals one at a time, then hooked her fingers through them as she started to walk slowly. "At least it's not raining..." Though they had been calling for some spring showers, it had held off all day, thankfully... (NT) -- Ella, Sun, May 15 2005, 11:31pm PDT

  ---

• He kept her hand tucked into the curve of his arm in a very chivalous gesture if he did say so himself. "Yeah, I heard it doesn't rain a whole lot here though.." He smirked a touch. "Not like jolly old London, bloody dreary there it is." He shook his head. "Doesn't change much, just different shades of gray each day." He looked down at her, his eyes curious. "Where you from before here and the center, pet?" (NT) -- Kaden, Sun, May 15 2005, 11:38pm PDT

  ---

• "That's no fun..." She commented quietly and almost absently before smiling ambiguously, her fingers on his arm slowly travelling over the formed muscles - slipping up a couple inches and then back down - just absently as they walked. "No where in particular..." She thought that maybe she had called somewhere 'home' when she had been a little kid, but couldn't really recall those days. It had been a long time since she had truly belonged anywhere. (NT) -- Ella, Sun, May 15 2005, 11:45pm PDT

  ---

• He cocked a brow at that, filing it away to think about later. This little girl seemed so full of contradictions. His eyes went to the duster, the duster he'd had for years, it was somewhat of a..prize for an accomplishment that was better left unspoken of. Still it was like a part of him and he was rarely seen without it - it carried the biting scent of cigarettes and leather plus the combination of scents that was pure male and pure Kaden. "Ya get used to it though." He said after a few moments of silence, glancing down to her. "The gray." (NT) -- Kade, Sun, May 15 2005, 11:50pm PDT

  ---

• "I guess so... I would miss the sunshine..." She murmured softly, and looked slowly up to him - she loved this jacket of his that she was wearing, for some reason. There was something safe feeling about it - the strong scents and the protective way in which it seemed to encircle her. Sighing softly, she slowed her walking a little and began to drag her feet through the deep, cool sand, eyes shifting up to him once more. "I like the rain sometimes too though..." (NT) -- Ella, Sun, May 15 2005, 11:55pm PDT

  ---

• He nodded a touch. "A chit that likes variety, not a bad thing. Most girls like the same thing all the time..." He glanced down at her, she looked cute, wrapped up in the duster like it was a blanket shielding her from the cold which, in a way, is basically what it was on her. For him it was more an appearance thing but for her, it literally draped over her. He guided her towards the part of the beach that led to where the bus stop - while he wouldn't want her on it by herself, with him there it was a good way to get him and cost way less then a cab. (NT) -- Kaden, Mon, May 16 2005, 12:16am PDT

  ---

• "Not so bad..." She agreed with a shrug and a slight smile - there was nothing like a good downpour every once in a while. Wordlessly, he allowed herself to be guided by him - for whatever reason, she trusted him, and didn't care where he was taking her as long as she wasn't going there alone. "Are you cold?" She questioned suddenly, brows gently furrowing as she looked up at him - he wasn't really dressed for the evening either, well, not now that she had his jacket. (NT) -- Ella, Mon, May 16 2005, 12:21am PDT

  ---

• He shook his head at that, shrugging a touch. "Don't know what it is exactly, but I have never been much for bein' cold..or hot...temperature doesn't really bother me." He smirked lightly, gazing down at her. "The coat is more for the 'big bad' appearance then actual warmth." It was all about appearances for him, looking and acting the part and all that sort of thing, the part that he had written up for himself in this big stage people called life. It was all an act, everyone was acting whether they knew it or not, just most people played the roles other had designed for them, he wrote his own. (NT) -- Kaden, Tue, May 17 2005, 6:50pm PDT

  ---

• "Ooh, one of those. But you don't seem so big and bad to me, with or without the coat..." She teased gently with a wink and a small smirk, gently bumping her shoulder against his before dropping her gaze back to the cool sand beneath her bare feet. "I'm not taking you away from any big plans that you had for the night or anything, am I?" She questioned after a few moments of quiet, glancing over at him for a brief moment. (NT) -- Ella, Tue, May 17 2005, 7:02pm PDT

  ---

• "Oh, pet, that cuts deep. You don't insult a mans deep dark soul.." He shook his head, clucking his tongue in a scolding fashion before that slow and easy smirk crossed his lips again. "Nah, no plans, like I said, just gettin' out of the packed mad house for a bit." Despite his words, his tone was affectionate, Joey was one of his best friends and he appreciated what he had done for them all. He'd done more for Kaden then anyone else in his life had and he had to give the guy mad props for that... (NT) -- Kaden, Tue, May 17 2005, 7:15pm PDT

  ---

• "Hey, I only tell the truth." Though that there was a complete lie, for certain, and the irony of it struck her the moment the words left her lips - brows furrowing for just a moment in response. She smiled though a moment later and nodded every so lightly, arms wrapping around herself as she suddenly halted their stroll as they came up to a bench, and then dropped down to sit on the edge. "Fair enough." (NT) -- Ella, Tue, May 17 2005, 7:19pm PDT

  ---

• He misstepped as she stopped suddenly but quickly regained his cordination and sat down next to her, cocking a brow. "So..." He drew the word out before he reached over and pulled a slightly crumped pack of cigarettes from his duster pocket, the one that was on his side of her. "Mind if I smoke?" He questioned, gesturing with a nod of his head towards his jacket. "Lighter is in the other pocket." (NT) -- Kaden, Tue, May 17 2005, 7:51pm PDT

  ---

• "Nah..." Though she didn't care at all, she wasn't sure how much it would have mattered if she did. Reaching into the other pocket of his jacket, she discovered the lighter, drew it out, and then held it out to him. "Doesn't bother me." She shrugged a little, looking over at him. She wasn't much for company that night, she knew, but she didn't feel like going back to the 'mad house' and had no where else to go, and was just feeling a little lost all around. (NT) -- Ella, Tue, May 17 2005, 8:00pm PDT

  ---

• He wasn't sure what he should be saying, it wasn't often that he talked to a girl without his main quest being to get her out of her pants, or well, at least him into her pants. At any rate, that wasn't his goal tonight so he was a bit at a loss. The big bad wasn't much into small talk though he tried valiantly. "So, um, what kinda music you lend your ear too?" He questioned, before groaning silenty, that was as origional as talking about the weather. (NT) -- Kaden, Tue, May 17 2005, 8:06pm PDT

  ---

• "Little bit of everything... I'm pretty flexible." She shrugged a little, eyes lingering on him for a moment before a soft sigh slipped from her plump lips. "What about you?" Small talk wasn't really her thing either, so she was just as lost as he was. She really didn't socialize much in normal situations either, and just wasn't too sure what to say herself, and was annoyed with herself for that fact. What kind of girl didn't even know how to talk to a guy in an everyday sort of event? (NT) -- Ella, Tue, May 17 2005, 8:24pm PDT

  ---

• "Old stuff, the kinks, the clash, Billy Idol, The Ramones..." He shrugged his shoulder, glancing over at her as he let out a low breath. "I feel like such a ninny, sitting here talking about music. It's been awhile, though, since I had to do anything like...make commeon conversation." He shrugged a little, pursing his lips before he smiled in a slight apolagy for his lack of conversational topics. A low breath escaped his lips as he glanced over at the water. "Did you live near the water before?" She had avoided the direct question of where she was from so maybe a less direct route would work better. (NT) -- Kaden, Tue, May 17 2005, 10:01pm PDT

  ---

• She just laughed softly, leaning back in the bench and resting her head back, eyes over on him. "I know... It's strange. I kind of feel like I've forgotten how to be anything close to a normal person." Bundled up in his jacket as if it were a blanket, she nodded ever so slightly, arms crossed underneath her chest and lips pursed gently before she spoke. "Once upon a time... What about you?" (NT) -- Ells, Tue, May 17 2005, 10:34pm PDT

  ---

• "I've seen it once or twice, the ocean, I mean, I've seen water more then once or twice." He shrugged again, for someone so adapt at being such a hard ass, he was stumbling over his words as badly as the pounce of a child he used to be would have. He had been so weak then, so easy to take advantage of and as he got older he had smoothed out his words, developed muscle and never looked back at the boy he used to be - the boy that still had dreams and wishes and bloody hell, even wrote poetry now and again... (NT) -- Kaden, Tue, May 17 2005, 10:40pm PDT

  ---

• A half-smile touched her features at that - she couldn't count how many times she had seen the ocean, that seemed so odd to her that he had only seen it twice. "You miss it much?" She questioned after a moment, shifting to lean forward with her shoulder resting gently against his, eyes out on the water. Though the evening was cooler than she would prefer, atleast it wasn't raining, though the clouds were moving in and showers may be on their way. (NT) -- Ella, Tue, May 17 2005, 10:50pm PDT

  ---

• "Sometimes...specially when all you chits look at me like I am the one who talks funny." He smirked a little, slumping down into the bench just a touch so that she could lean more comfortably against him. "I saw the ocean when I was flyin' over the pond you know, but I wasn't really payin' much 'ttention to it, bein' in the air for the first time and all, I was more concerned about tossin' my cookies all over the cutie next to me, now that would have been a shame." First time on a plane and joining the mile high club, not bad. (NT) -- Kaden, Tue, May 17 2005, 10:58pm PDT

  ---

• "Well you do. But I like it." She informed him quite matter-of-factly, with a small smile, and then laughed softly. "Figures... That would have been such a shame. And such an awkward rest of the flight." Nose wrinkling just a touch, she smothered a yawn and dropped her head back against the back of the bench. "I've never been on a plane before." Though there were a lot of things that she had never done. (NT) -- Ella, Tue, May 17 2005, 11:03pm PDT

  ---

• "Such a waste of a flight." A rogue expression crossed his face as he waggled his brows playfully at her, shifting to let his arm rest behind her on the bench as his eyes rested on the water in front of them. "I've never...been on a small boat. Was on a big boat once, hoppin' the channel to get to France but other then that.." He shrugged, glancing down at her briefly before his gaze returned back to the waves, fascinated by how they changed size and shape. (NT) -- Kaden, Tue, May 17 2005, 11:08pm PDT

  ---

• She laughed at that and rolled her eyes, scooting closer to his side, resting on a slight angle, her cheek on his arm. "I've never dyed my hair." That was a random one, but the first to pop into her head. "Listen to you... 'Hoppin' the channel to get to France'. Sounds so surreal. Maybe I'll go to Europe one day." One day, in another lifetime that was. Not only could she never afford it, but she was pretty sure that she wouldn't be allowed by the powers that be. Girls like her didn't get to live lives like that, anyway. (NT) -- Ella, Tue, May 17 2005, 11:14pm PDT

  ---

• "Mmm, just like crossin' state lines here." He shrugged a touch before he ran a hand through her hair absently. "Don't need to dye your hair, its a pretty color as it is." He smiled lightly, looking down at her. "I dyed my hair once, bright blonde, got all spikey and Billy Idol lookin' but it didn't last to long." He shrugged lightly, his eyes on her for a second before he leaned back into the bench a touch more, making him self comfortable as she nestled against him. (NT) -- Kaden, Tue, May 17 2005, 11:17pm PDT

  ---

• "Can't even imagine it." She shook her head a little before laughing gently at the idea of him with bright blonde hair, and then glanced up to him. "I like yours how it is, too." She settled back down and fell silent for a long moment, brows furrowing gently when she spoke again. "You think everyone's still up at the house?" She just wasn't really in the mood for dodging people, and things could get so busy over there sometimes. Other times, it was completely abandonned. (NT) -- Ella, Tue, May 17 2005, 11:23pm PDT

  ---

• "I bet a few of 'em are still up..." He shrugged a touch. "Joey's probably out with Nina still, Rio's probably in Jackie's room, Astrid and that whole group are probably sleepin' though..." He could barely keep up with everyone in the house but there were a few he was close with - those being Joey and Rio and Jason respectively. He smiled a touch down at her, cocking a brow. "You trying to hide from people?" (NT) -- Kaden, Tue, May 17 2005, 11:27pm PDT

  ---

• She opened her mouth to make some excuse, but then just nodded a little and managed a sheepish smile. "Yeah, sorta..." She admitted with a slight shrug, just her big, blue eyes turned up to watch him. It was so strange how much she was trying to avoid people these days. She used to be such a friendly girl - the type who much preferred to be around others as opposed to being alone. That seemeed like it had changed without her even noticing it until now. (NT) -- Ella, Tue, May 17 2005, 11:32pm PDT

  ---

• he smirked a little at that, tipping his head to the side. "Nothing wrong with a little alone time...did I ruin that for you?" He questioned, he had kinda distrubed her night out and he was hopin' she wasn't wishin' he had never shown up. His dark eyes swept down to her, brow furrowed curiously as he tried to guage what she was thinking about him but that was near impossible. (NT) -- Kaden, Tue, May 17 2005, 11:37pm PDT

  ---

• "No..." She assured him quickly, a hand reaching over without thought to brush his chest just briefly, still a little curled towards his side - legs drawn up a little towards him and cheek resting on his arm, comfortable and content in the warmth of his company. "Kinda saved my night, actually." Though that was more true than he would ever know. (NT) -- Ella, Tue, May 17 2005, 11:44pm PDT

  ---

• "Well, glad I could be of use then, luv." He winked down at her, his arm tugging her closer to his side, unsure why he had the sudden urge to protect her but there it was, swelling in his chest right below where her tiny hand had rested just a second ago. His fingers played absently through her silky hair was he remained silent for a few long moments before he murmured. "we can stay here for a bit and then we'll sneak in...won't let anyone see you at all." (NT) -- Kaden, Tue, May 17 2005, 11:50pm PDT

  ---

• She just smiled at him, and was comfortably silent as she rested against him, then nodded agreeably, eyes flitting up to him. "Perfect. Sounds like a plan. You probably think I'm some completely anti-social hermit..." Though maybe she was, and at that thought, her brows furrowed a littel and her lips pursed for a moment as she contemplated that idea. Really though, she would get over this once she was more settled in... That was her hope, atleast. (NT) -- Ella, Tue, May 17 2005, 11:54pm PDT
