       ❝  i  have  nothing  else  planned  for  the  rest  of  the  day  so  i  don’t  see  why  not.  ❞  yanzhen  agreed.  ❝  do  you  have  a  specific  place  you  like  to  go  or  should  i  look  some  up  ??  ❞

“To be honest, any place would be good. I just gotta satisfy this craving or I’ll end up dying,” Ley joked. “Do you happen to know a place though?”

[leyxwashington]

kamsaelim​:

❝ i don’t see why we shouldn’t. would you like to go the expensive route & go to a bar, or should we gather in either of our places after getting the cheapest alcohol available & have me prepare the most expensive of cocktails ? i’m a bartender, in case you’re wondering. ❞

“You’re a bartender? Well, it seems like it’s my lucky day. My place would be good. I think I still have some liquor bottles at my place. But I don’t know your preference when it comes to drinks.”

[leyxwashington]

autumnhornburg​:

“Oh, a cocktail! A Cosmo, oh my God, I’m craving a Cosmopolitan.”

“How long have you diverted yourself from drinking? That’s so not like you, love! I want my Autumn back, please!”

[leyxwashington]

carson-tyler​:

“No, I’m not expecting anyone… and no, I don’t know you personally. I’ve just seen you around town a few times, just never the park.”

“Oh, that’s a relief. I mean, at least I wouldn’t have to feel guilty over not remembering your name in case we do know each other. Well, yeah, I barely have time to stroll this area on normal days. You go here often?”

[leyxwashington]

fur-elise-jung​:

“It’s quite easy. If someone offer you a drink you just shake your head negatively.” Elise laughed a bit. “You really should get, this is bad! I am sure, I can drink anything else, as long there is no alcohol.”

“And if the person respects the no, then they won’t be forcing you to drink, right.” When the other agreed with the therapy, Ley couldn’t help but laugh loud. “I know it is bad. But what better way to cope? Alcohol for me,” she shook her head lightly with a chuckle. “You know what, let’s have some coffee instead? Or.. I don’t know, boba?”

[leyxwashington]

fur-elise-jung​:

“I apologize, but I don’t drink. Although I could just make you company if you’d like.”

“You don’t drink? Woah, I gotta learn from you in keeping my liver... well, functioning. It seems like I’m going to need therapy from drinking too much. But yes, yes, company would be very much appreciated. Are you sure though?”

[leyxwashington]

autumnhornburg​:

“I thought you’d never ask!”

“It just took me a while; but sooner or later, we both know I would ask. So, what alcohol would you like, Autumn?”

[leyxwashington]

milenalazaros​:

“do you even have to ask? I got a brand new bottle of wine with your name on it- just ignore the poorly done bow.” she giggled, pressing a kiss to the brunette’s temple.

“With my name on it?” Ley repeated, laughing a bit. “I know how much you’re in love with me, my love. It’s actually starting to get in my head, though,” she joked then pulled the other close to her. “It’s such a fine night, isn’t it?”

[leyxwashington]

“I swear my tastebuds have been dying to taste anything alcoholic for days now. Would you like to grab a drink with me?” @vestalanding​

[leyxwashington]

carson-taylor​:

Carson sat out on the lawn as she wrote in her notebook, studying the way strangers interact with each other. What she wasn’t expecting was someone sitting down next to her. Carson smiled, “Oh, hey. Funny running into you here.” @vestalanding​

“I’m sorry, I just assumed you were alone... Were you expecting someone? I can move instead because... I don’t think I... know  you? Unless... you do know me?”

[leyxwashington]

dominicpls​:

@vestalanding​

“I just got back from New York this morning after spending the last few days at private auctions, and apparently someone tried to break into my condo, unsuccessfully at least.” Dominic mused. “My dog has a really big bark for such a friendly guy, he scared the guy right off.”

“New York.... God, the mention of that place just does things to me,” Ley chuckled a bit, remembering her years in New York. “But damn, that plot twist... was something I didn’t expect? Did you see who the burglar-ish was?”

[leyxwashington]

itscharlottehill​:

“How come?” Charlotte genuinely asked, “You are pretty nice yourself I can’t really picture you having a hard time making me friends.” She laughed, shaking her head no. “I can’t have wine, it’s too hot out and I’m not in the mood for a sweat.”

“Ah, I don’t want to bore you with details. Besides, I am not the same person I was yesterday, let alone years ago,” she laughed. “Okay, okay, no wine. We’ll have ice cold beer instead. Do you have any preference as to what beer?”

[leyxwashington]

milenalazaros​:

at her notion she let out a gasp, “no you didn’t- that’s so darling of you.” milena told with starry eyes, and as she saw the bath the stars only multiplied. “-attempted? you did it- if i’m having a bath- you better join me.” she teased, looking at the girl’s frame as she couldn’t help but to pull her closer. “you can still massage me - and I can even massage you..-” she added giving a gentle kiss to her lips.

“You’ve had a long day, my love,” Ley giggled then kissed the tip of Milena’s nose. “You deserve the bath more than I do, but if you insist, I can join in.” There was a wink after her statement, clearly teasing her girlfriend back. “I think you’re thinking of a different massage,” she joked then felt her cheeks heat up when Milena kissed her lips. “Should I be the one to undress you?” She grinned.

lucy-luckk​:

starter for @leyxwashington​

Things in Vegas had gone very, very wrong. Legally she was married, her ex was trying to move in to her home, and on top of everything, she had to start back up at work in the next few weeks. She needed to get things sorted. And soon. Good thing she lived next to a lawyer. Which is why she was pounding on Ley’s door at almost nine PM. Maybe slightly tipsy. “Ley! Ley! I need your help!”

Ley had just finished preparing for her Monday hearing, yes despite it being a weekend, when she heard someone pound on her door. Thankfully enough, she knows when she has heard a certain voice before. “Hey, Lucy,” she greeted once she had opened the door. “Girlfriend, are you okay? Come in, come in,” Ley stepped aside to let the other in. “Also, there is a doorbell, you know?” She teased, shaking her head slightly.

milenalazaros​:

as milena got the text she felt her heart flutter, lainey knew exactly how to make her heart swell.. she locked her phone; before beginning to drive.. thankfully it wasn’t a long drive at all, given they lived in the same complex.. as she pulled up she felt her heart racing as if it were their reunion all over again; she was a fool for the girl and surely she had to know it.. as she got out of the car she straightened out her pencil skirt and buttoned up shirt- it was her best attempt at looking presentable; especially after how much stress she’d be dealing with, with her ex and all. as she saw ley she gave a smile and sigh of content, “hi my baby.” she smiled into her arms as they hovered over her, “I missed you most.” she insisted; taking in her girlfriend’s comforting scent. “it smells amazing in here- what’d you get up to?” she inquired with a small smirk; as she pulled away yet interlocking their fingers.

“I cooked for you,” Ley grinned, feeling proud of herself, “and well, I attempted a romantic move here.” Ley then lead Milena towards the bathroom where an aromatic warm bath was waiting for the other. “No need to rush on the bath. I figured you’d want to relax before dinner. And what’s one of the best ways to have that? A warm bath,” she smiled shyly. “I can also give you a gentle massage while you’re at it. Though, a disclaimer, I am not good at it. I mean, I can do it, but, you know... not like those who professional do it.”

     “To counter your defense your definition of fun is literally just the definition of boring so… doesn’t really count. But nice try.” She continued to tease, though she already knew the her words were partially true. Especially if Ley still found getting ahead on projects fun. “That is probably the nicest thing you’ve ever said to me. The most creative? Thank you, I’ll keep that reminder close to my heart.” She spoke with a soft laugh, though it turned into a groan at the mention of a kiss. Her hands coming up to give her a playful shove. “Is this you rubbing the fact that you can kiss your girlfriend whenever you’d like and i’m currently stuck in romance limbo? No. We haven’t kissed. But he took my confession well and doesn’t absolutely hate me, so I’d say we have great progress.”

“Fun is subjective, my dear kiddo. Something I’ve learned back then. The same with the whole fetish thing, which... I just learned recently and accidentally or quite forcibly, to be honest,” Ley laughed shaking her head. “You don’t see yourself creative? Baby, you’re a walking art!” She said genuinely; and meaning it. Her eyes widened and her cheeks heated up at the mention of girlfriend and being able to kiss Milena whenever she’d like. “Oh my God, you finally confessed? How did he take it? Do you want me to set you guys up on a date? Like, I can be your wingwoman!”
