Tasting at Dimitri's III
Isla: Isla smiled slightly, realizing that he was needed to do his job elsewhere, but was choosing to be with her. Cupping his cheeks, she shakes her head lightly before pressing her lips to his. The kiss was slow, her lips only parting slightly before she pulled back, her forehead resting against his. "I'd missed that."1:35 AM
Daisy/Evey/Clive joined the chat1:36 AM
Clara/Colin/Warren: Clara breathed out a laugh, "Oh yeah.... maybe I'll get back into opium before this is over. Wouldn't surprise me..." she shook her head.1:36 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey: Dimitri shrugs his shoulders lightly as he looks around for a moment. "I can't help it." He half whispers.1:40 AM
Dierdra/Luca: Dierdra saw the look of worry on the young girl's face. She frantically searched for a name. "Laurel," she suddenly remember, but the girl didn't look at her, her blue eyes were locked on Leon, "Laurel, sweetie..." If the moment hadn't been so tense Dierdra could have sworn she heard her own mother's voice creeping into hers, "I'll need to you help me, okay?" When the girl finally looked at her and nodded Dierdra smiled, "Good. I'll get the towels, but I need you to go get Detective Curr, can you do that for me?"1:40 AM
Scotty/Candy: "It's okay," Scotty smiled at Vera." Scotty leaned back in his chair. "You can have a seat if you want. Tell me about where you've been?"1:41 AM
Scotty/Candy: Candy's breath caught in her throat. "Well you certainly do know how to sweet talk a woman," she nodded. "Do you do this to all the girls?" Candy laughed.1:42 AM
Daisy/Evey/Clive: Evey remained silent, only nodding a thank you to Colin as he handed her the glass. She hated the fact that her relationship with Maxwell felt so hot and cold. It was if his interest in her changed with the day of the week. But it didn't matter as long as he cared, which he always seemed to do at just the right moments. Gulping down the water, Evey looked up at Colin the worry on his face only paining her more. "Thanks...." She muttered.1:44 AM
Laurel/Cho/Vera: Laurel was so worried at first that she couldn't hear what was going on. But 'help' caught her attention. She looked at the girl beside her. "I need you to get Detective Curr, can you do that for me?"1:45 AM
Laurel/Cho/Vera: Laurel answered, "Yes." Leaving the kitchen, she set off to find the detective.1:46 AM
Clara/Colin/Warren: Colin smiled softly. "You're welcome." He grinned before stealing her fork and taking a bite of what was left of the food on her plate. "This is delicious...." he said with his mouth full of food, staring at Evey.1:46 AM
Daisy/Evey/Clive: Daisy grinned, her hand pulling Devin face to face. "You've had to put up with so much... and I couldn't imagine my life without you in it. I love you. Don't forget that, okay?"1:46 AM
Frank: Frank looked over at her "Was everyone into opium at some point and I just never realized it?"1:47 AM
Leon Talbot: He sat on a stool as the motion around him continued to hurt his vision. Maxwell was asking him something but he merely stared at the boy blankly as he struggled to keep his eyes open. Dierdra was instructing the girl in blue to go get the detective. "No," he slurred, "No detective," but Laurel had already left. It was funny how things ended up tonight; funny that he found Dee and Maxwell together, funny that a brat-Maxwell- helped him, and funny that Laurel was here all worried when it was her fault in the first place that he got beaten up and almost stabbed.1:48 AM
Laurel/Cho/Vera: She spotted him at the bar. "Detective!" she shouted. "We need your help in the kitchen! Someone's been hurt!"1:49 AM
Laurel/Cho/Vera: (Sorry. My laptop is retarded...)1:49 AM
Maxwell: "Do you have any ice handy? He might need it for his head," Maxwell said, looking at the boy. He was no doctor, but he'd been in his fair share of fights and knew have to quell the minor injuries. "Hey, Talbot, I know you're tired and your head is probably spinning, but I need you to try to stay awake. Dierdra, come talk to him, please. You can just tell me where things are and I'll find them."1:50 AM
Daisy/Evey/Clive: Evey laughed, her hand clutching her stomach as if her insides would spill out if she shook too hard. Colin was trying, and doing really well in the moment, but once in had past, Evey felt the same tinge of dread that had been eating at her. "Colin...... " Evey whispered, squeezing her eyes shut in order to keep her tears in their ducts. "Take me home?"1:51 AM
Laurel/Cho/Vera: Vera sat by the attractive young man. "I was at a beach with a client for a few months. It was fun, but I'm glad to be home. Montford has such a variety. I enjoy all the different kinds of people. What kind might you be, Scotty?" She winked at him.1:51 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey: Smiling, Dickey's eyes shift between Isla's before he grabs her hands, holding them between each other. "Me too..." He wanted to say something else, something to lighten to mood before he heard someone call for his help. Turning to Laurel, he nods his head once before turning back to Isla with a hurt and apologetic look on his face. "I'm sorry...Talk to you later?"1:51 AM
Scotty/Candy: "Wow. A client took you to the beach? You have made it to the big time," he laughed. "Maybe I should take up a different profession," he teased. "I am definitely the kind of person that with give you a good time."1:53 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey: "I'm afraid that I spend too much time in the kitchen for them to notice me." Dimitri confessed.1:53 AM
Isla: Isla nodded her head to him, smiling slightly as if to tell him she understood. Watching him walk away, she turned back to the bar, signaling for one of the bar tenders to come over. "A whiskey please," she said quietly.1:53 AM
Scotty/Candy: "That is ridiculous," Candy said. "The girls and I were just over there talking about how adorable you are," she said cooly as she crossed her arms. "Women notice."1:54 AM
Dierdra/Luca: Dierdra moved about the kitchen with speed and procession gathering a few towels and ice from the cooler, all the while staying out of the cooks way, dinner was still in motion after all. Snagging the first aid kit from the wall she returned quickly. "I've got ice," she told Jesse who was still hovering, with a small smile he was on his way. Dierdra exchanged a look with Maxwell and nodded. The ice was already tucked into a towel and she passed it to him. "Leon," she started quietly, her eyes locking with his. They were glassed over and bloodshot, "How's Tiny Cosmo?" A distraction, a distraction was what she needed as she check his head for a gash as well as the rest of his body for damage.1:55 AM
Clara/Colin/Warren: Colin waved his hands around Evey, "Please don't cry!" He said before standing up, "What's wrong? Talk to me." He said as he began walking her out of the restaurant.2:00 AM
Leon Talbot: '...How is tiny Cosmo?' Leon focused his eyes on the brunette as his head continued to pound. "I got my heart on my head." He said, pointing to the back of his head, "Tiny Cosmo?" His mind wandering off as he thought of Cosmo O'Conner and his absence before realizing it was the monkey she was referring to, "He is tiny still....really tiny." He answered, wincing as he realized how his face hurts when he talks. And as annoying at it was, his body hurt as he winced. He tried his best to stay still.2:00 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey: "Okay...They notice." He smiles as shrugs it off like it was nothing. "But...I dunno. I'm just too caught up in work to notice them back..."2:01 AM
Scotty/Candy: "That's a shame. Because any girl would be lucky to be noticed by you," she laughed. "But I guess that works in my favor because I don't want to lose my new favorite client. That wasn't a total lie. She was already fond of his company, she just didn't really know why, though.2:02 AM
Dierdra/Luca: Luca took her take out home and shared its delicious glory with Warren before seeing the man in all of *his* glory. Then they fell asleep. The End.2:03 AM
Dierdra/Luca changed name to Dierdra2:03 AM
Laurel/Cho/Vera: "I have not hit it big," Vera protested. She hated people with big heads - no pun intended - and she was gonna do her damned hardest to not get one. "It's not a bad profession. I enjoy it." Smiling, she added, "And just what do you consider a good time?"2:04 AM
Daisy/Evey/Clive: Evey bit harshly down on her lip as they headed out the front doors, her eyes glued to the floor as Colin escorted her to the old rust bucket he considered his car. Once inside, Evey let out a ragged breath, her goal still being to maintain composure. "Just getting really ill is all.... you were right." She chuckled nervously, her eyes fixed on her fingers. "You can stay awhile if you want...."2:05 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey: "I love you too." Devin says before reaching over to her, kissing her lips lightly before they separated. "But yeah. I can teach you. It's not that hard."2:07 AM
Daisy/Evey/Clive: Daisy giggled, her lips touching the tip of his nose. "How about now? I think I may be in need of a lesson or two..." She growled, her hand slipping to the inside of his thigh.2:08 AM
Scotty/Candy: Scotty laughed, "well believe me if you haven't yet, you will." He thought for a moment, "I like goofing off," he shrugged. "I don't really get that much time off of work." Scotty was darling, but he was also a poor judge of when people were flirting with him or interested in the least bit with him.2:09 AM
Scotty/Candy: He just smiled sweetly at her (Scotty cont)2:09 AM
Daisy/Evey/Clive: Night guys!!! LOVE YOU ALL :D2:10 AM
Scotty/Candy: ((NIGHT))2:10 AM
Laurel/Cho/Vera: (night, erica!)2:10 AM
Leon Talbot: ((bye Erica! thank you! ))2:11 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey: Dickey finally makes his way to the kitchen, his eyes gazing on the scene in front of him. He sighs deeply before speaking. "What happened?"2:11 AM
Clara/Colin/Warren: [I'm working in the AM so I'm heading out toooooo~ night guys <3 :* ]2:11 AM
Scotty/Candy: ((NIGHT!))2:11 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey: ^^2:11 AM
Laurel/Cho/Vera: Laurel followed the detective in the kitchen. Then she stood off to the side, out of the way, but close enough to follow orders again if need be.2:12 AM
Maxwell: Maxwell raised an eyebrow as the two said something about a "tiny Cosmo." He looked around the busy kitchen, before picking up the ice that Dierdra had brought over, and instruction Jesse to press it to the boy's head. "Just like that, but not to hard," he said, watching the cook. He turned to rummage through the first aid kit, finding a couple aspirin. He stepped over to the sink, grabbing a glass and filling it with water before returing to the boy. "Take these, it'll help with the pain," he said, holding out the medicine and the glass of water.2:13 AM
Laurel/Cho/Vera: Vera measured up the bartender. She was seriously considering her chances with the young man. Could he be her first case while back in town? Only one way to find out. "Goofing off is fun, but I think I know some things that would be even more enjoyable. Only if you're interested of course," she added just so she didn't scare the poor man off.2:14 AM
Dierdra: Dierdra was in the process of cleaning the cut on gash she had in fact found on the back of Leon's head. It wasn't bad, but he might need a stitch. Her head moved up and she returned Jesse's hands holding the ice to Leon's head at the sight of the detective. "We haven't got much out of him, I..." she stole a glance to Leon and then Maxwell, "I know he was attacked, but I didn't see who did it."2:15 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey: "I don't think you'll be losing me anytime soon..." He adds before the tone of his voice changed as he reached over to Candy, his fingers running over her arm lightly. "But I'll keep myself available, if it comes down to it."2:15 AM
Scotty/Candy: His eyes widened at the realization of what Vera was talking aout. She was talking about having sex with him for money. He weighed his options. "It would be an honor," he began. "But I don't think I could afford you," Scotty smiled a bit.2:17 AM
Leon Talbot: Oh...Fuck me sideways. Leon thought as he saw the detective arrive on the scene. "Let's have a party in here alright?" He blurted before grabbing the glass and aspirin, swallowing the pill as his eyes focused on Laurel who hid behind the detective. How could Laurel do that do to him? And he thought they were in good terms already. He finished the glass of water and raised it, waiting for anyone of them to take it from his hands. He was such a baby tonight, but he had already been drinking, already feeling unwell and now he was here, dazed, hurting and confused.2:18 AM
Scotty/Candy: Goosebumps rose on her arms where Dimitri touched her. The fact that she enjoyed it scared her. "Good," she said simply. "I. I think I," she stammered - her mind going a million miles an hour. "I just remembered I have to do something," she lied. The feelings inside Candy were terrifying her and she just needed to get away.2:19 AM
Laurel/Cho/Vera: Vera was feeling generous. More than anything she wanted to get back in the swing of things. And this gorgeous young man - much younger than the older man she'd been on vacation with - was a perfect candidate. "I don't know about that. I could always give you a discount, seeing as we work together and whatnot. The fact that you're so sweet doesn't hurt either." Her fingers lightly ran up and down his hand as it laid on the table.2:19 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey: "O-okay. I'll see you later, perhaps?" Dimitri asks.2:21 AM
Scotty/Candy: "A-absolutely," she gives him a small smile. She kisses him on the cheek and bolts for the door.2:22 AM
Scotty/Candy changed name to Scotty2:22 AM
Scotty: Scotty smiled at Vera, "how about tomorrow afternoon?"2:23 AM
Laurel/Vera: Relieved that he was willing, Vera perked up. "Tomorrow afternoon sounds lovely, but why not now?" Vera was in full on prowl mode. "I mean, I could just eat you up. I don't really want to let you go just yet." Laying a hand on his strong shoulder, she kissed his cheek tenderly.2:26 AM
Scotty: Scotty was a little taken back by her forwardness, but he was not at all averted. "O-okay. Yeah. Let's go," he said with a smile. Scotty stood up and offered his hand to Vera2:28 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey: Dickey rolls his eyes at the sight in front of him. Leon? Again? "Do us all a favor, hm? Stop fighting. I'm still laughing from the last time you were caught in a fight." He pinches the bridge of his nose out of frustration, slightly angered that this was happening at the most improper time. "No who were you fighting?"2:29 AM
Laurel/Vera: Taking his hand, Vera followed Scotty out of the restaurant and out into the night. Damn, it was good to be back.2:29 AM
Laurel/Vera: (I believe so)2:29 AM
Scotty: ((goodnight everyone. :) ))2:29 AM
Laurel/Vera: (goodnight. Talk to ya tomorrow ;) )2:29 AM
Laurel/Vera changed name to Laurel2:30 AM
Dierdra: (night love)2:30 AM
Scotty left the chat2:30 AM
Leon Talbot: ((bye Scotty! I shall pay you back- Leon))2:30 AM
Leon Talbot: 'Do us all a favor, hm? Stop fighting. I'm still laughing from the last time you were caught in a fight.' Leon merely stared at the detective as he looked visibly stressed that he was yet again handling a scuffle involving yours truly. He'd like to say the last time was Jerry's fault, and that tonight was the man with the knife's fault, but really, the blaming game doesn't help his cause especially when he's sitting there drunk. The detective asked him who it was who attacked him, he didn't know who it was and his eyes caught Laurel looking at him. "How could you do that to me?" He asked the girl, ignoring the detective's question.2:35 AM
Dierdra: "He was attacked," Dierdra said a little annoyed by the detectives take on the matter, "The man punched him in the face and when Leon fell to the ground he didn't stop there." She shadowy images replayed themselves in her mind, at least Leon's did. Dierdra put a hand on Leon's chest, gently pushing him back down to the stool he had been sitting on. "Her fault," she questioned, "Leon she wasn't even there..."2:37 AM
Laurel/Vera: Laurel was completely caught by surprise. 'How could you do that to me?' She hadn't attacked him! She didn't know anything about this. How could he think it was her? "What? I've been here all night. I promise. I would never hurt you." Tears welled up in her eyes.2:38 AM
Maxwell: Maxwell watched at the three in front of him recalled details of the night, and what had happened to Leon. He'd nothing to contribute, as he'd stepped in only after the attacker had fled. "Come on, let's not waste the good detective's time," he said, looking at the group. "Talbot, do you remember anything leading up to the fight, anyone that would want to hurt you?"2:43 AM
Leon Talbot: Dierdra placed a hand on his chest, his body flinching from the contact. It hurts like hell and no matter how gentle Dierdra was, it hurt. A lot. Leon watched Laurel's eyes as tears almost fell, and for a moment, he regretted being so blunt about it.' I promise. I would never hurt you.' He merely shook his head and refused to look at the girl anymore. He had caused her enough trouble from last time, and maybe he did deserve it. Maxwell waited impatiently as the scene unfolded, asking him what he remembered. "I..I was with Scotty, we were eating, then he approached me..he had a knife, asked me to come with him." He knew he had seen the man's face before, but where?2:45 AM
Laurel/Vera: Her emotions got the better of her. Hurt by his accusation, Laurel turned and fled the kitchen. She was too upset to care that it made her look guilty or that this running was becoming a habit of hers. All she could do was hope Leon would come to his senses. In the mean time, she was going home to her loving mom, her comfy bed, and her sweet pig... the pig Leon had given her... Damn. He was everywhere!2:46 AM
Laurel/Vera: (good night all :))2:46 AM
Laurel/Vera: [ oops.. :) ]2:46 AM
Leon Talbot: ((bye Amanda! >:D< ))2:47 AM
Laurel/Vera: [ >:D< bye ced ]2:47 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey: He looks between each person simultaneously, trying to grasp the idea of what was going on. "Did you see what he looked like?" The question was forced, but had to be asked.2:47 AM
Dierdra: Dierdra shook her head at the Detective and her heart went out to Laurel as she ran from the kitchen, but she couldn't leave, "Maybe Scotty will know who it was?"2:51 AM
Maxwell: This was not at all how Maxwell had seen his night unfolding, and he still had yet to even say hello to his date. HIS DATE. "Oh shit," he said out loud. "I was meant to meet Evelyn tonight...shit, she's going to be upset." He mentally kicked himself for forgetting, but there had been another girl who'd been on his mind first. And now he found himself here, playing Clue with an injured reporter who couldn't remember who'd hurt him, a detective who probably wanted to be elsewhere, and the girl who'd landed him in this tight spot.2:52 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey: Perfect. "And I'm guessing Scotty isn't here..." He sighs out as he places his palm on the side of his face. "If he's not here, there's nothing I can do until tomorrow morning."2:55 AM
Leon Talbot: He buried his throbbing head in his hands, a soft moan escaping his lips from the pain of contorting his injured body like that. "I've seen him detective, but he isn't a local. I don't know him." His thoughts went back to what the man told him, did he really want to risk getting killed by an unknown man? 'Maybe Scotty will know who it was?' He raised his head at Dierdra, panic taking over him, "No, look, sorry to take up your time detective, I..It was my fault, you're right about that, I shouldn't have gotten myself into a fight like that." It was a mouthful and all the while, a look of agony was painted on the reporter's face as he spoke. He didn't want the police involved anymore, so it was better for the detective to think he was right with his assumptions and be done with it. He needed to end this and thankfully Maxwell provided distraction. "You should look for your date Mr. Burgh, thank you for earlier."2:56 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey: "Right. Is there anything else you all need?"3:02 AM
Bonnie/Devin/Dimitri/Dickey changed name to Dickey3:02 AM
Dierdra: Dierdra raised an eyebrow to Leon, but didn't push it. She had been close enough to him to smell the alcohol on his breath, maybe that combined with the shock was too much for him. Then there was his outburst at Laurel which had her frowning. "I think I can get him home," Dierdra said giving a soft smile to Maxwell, "Go find Evey, she'll be missing you." Turning back to the Detective she gave a small shrug, should I bring him to the station tomorrow?"3:02 AM
Isla joined the chat3:04 AM
Dickey: "That'll be fine. I'll have Clarence talk to him a bit more while I look for Scotty."3:06 AM
Leon Talbot: He shook his head at the detective; he was was as stressed as Dickey was and Leon hoped he would just leave. Blame it on Dierdra and her worrying to drag the police in a minor scuffle."Sorry for the trouble." He mumbled to the people in the kitchen as he avoided Dierdra's gaze. He tried to stand up, using the counter as a way to balance himself. "I think I'm fine now." He said, but really trying to convince himself as pain through his body once more.3:09 AM
Dickey: Nodding his head, Dickey knocks on the counter top for a second. "Okay. I'll see you tomorrow. Preferably early so we can kill two birds with one stone."3:13 AM
Dierdra: Dierdra ducked under his arm once more seeing the sway in Leon's stance. Hard headed, foolish, idiotic man. "Yeah... we'll see about that," She gave the detective a nod. "Come on you," she said quietly to Leon baring as much of his weight as she could, "Your place or mine?"3:14 AM
Leon Talbot: The reporter watched the detective leave as he finally sighed in relief. He was having a hard time standing straight or moving even, remembering that Maxwell had actually carried most of his weight for him to get here. He looked at Dierdra as she slipped under his arm to help, asking him where he'll be staying. He assessed the situation and realized Dee hasn't been to his apartment yet. "Can you drive?" He asked, "..I- I'd like to stay at your apartment for a while" he said softly, hoping tiny Cosmo would be alright alone in the apartment.3:18 AM
Dickey: Rubbing out the tense knot in his neck, Dickey keeps a mental thought of the previous moment in his head, reminding himself to wake up a little earlier to get on this case. His eyes trail back to the bar, noticing that Isla was still sitting there. Everyone else seemed to have left the restaurant accordingly. Hmm. He walks up to her again before leaning up against the bar. "You're still here." He realizes more than asks.3:20 AM
Isla: Isla look up at him slowly, doing her best to offer him a smile as she nods her head. "I didn't feel like going home yet," she murmured, her eyes now back on the untouched glass of whiskey in front of her.3:23 AM
Dierdra: Making their way out to the car Dierdra gave an amused scoff, "The house is becoming a bit crowded, but there's always room for you. Maybe I'll start charging the others rent. The hand about his waist dipped into his pocket of his jacket, Dierdra's fingers searching for his keys, and they quickly found the cool metal. "I can drive," she said quietly helping him into his car.3:24 AM
Leon Talbot: He rested his head on top of the car's leather seat as he closed his eyes. "..I'll start paying rent." He mumbled, his body yearning for rest as he waited for Dee to start the car. "I'll give you anything you want, just...get me out of here." He whispered.3:28 AM
Dickey: Dickey's eyes follows hers as they fall upon the small glass. Fearing the worst, he picks it up from the counter and smells it, noticing the strong smell of whiskey coming from the glass...His eyes cut to her immediately, a sudden pang of anger and confusion plastered his face. Sighing, he puts the glass back on the bar and asks, "Want me to walk you home?"3:29 AM
Dierdra: It wasn't long before Dierdra had the car coming to life at her touch and only a bit longer before they were coasting into the driveway at her house. She hopped out and crossed to the other side knowing Leon still needed help. "Well I have some good news and some bad news," she said as she pushed quietly through the front door, "There is an actual bed for you to sleep in, but we're going to have to climb the stirs to do so."3:33 AM
Isla: She notices the expression on his face, not surprised by the fact that he's assumed the worst. "I didn't drink any," she told him as her eyes drifted back to the counter. "I wanted to, but I didn't," she added before nodding her head slowly, beginning to get down from the stool.3:34 AM
Leon Talbot: Stairs? Leon let out an audible sigh. But it was better than staying on the sofa. "I don't mind Dee, I'll climb the Everest just to get some rest." His mind wandered to the man who beat him up; the look of anger and malice on his face, Laurel's tears and how she had ran off again. Everything's fucked.3:39 AM
Dickey: He didn't want to know. Whatever happened was now over, and he really didn't feel like talking about it. As the two walk together outside, Dickey walks alongside her with his hand wrapped in hers while walking slowly down the street.3:40 AM
Isla: Isla pulled him closer to her as they walked, wanting to say something, but not entirely sure of what. She wanted to talk to him, but lately it was as if every conversation ended badly.3:45 AM
Dierdra: Slowly, very slowly the pair worked their way up the stairs. With every cringe and whimper that escaped Leon, Dierdra felt her teeth sink further into her bottom lip till she feared she tasted blood. "Here," the girl breathed pushing open the door to her room. Satisfied that he could stand on his own she quickly turned down the sheets. "I only got to look at your head at Dimitri's," she said quietly standing by the bed while Leon still stood across the room, "but I know... I know he kicked you." Slowly she moved the distance to him. "Can I?" she asked her fingers lingering on the low buttons of his shirt, "you'll need help getting it off anyways..."3:48 AM
Leon Talbot: Tiny fingers fumbled with his shirt as Leon struggled to keep himself upright, his head low as his eyes followed Dierdra's hands with the buttons. She said something about his head and being kicked and she got that right, but he was too distracted with what she was doing, his head hurting and the pain all over his body to answer.3:58 AM
Dierdra: When Leon made no move to stop her Dierdra continued till his shirt was completely unbuttoned. Helping remove first his jacket and then the shirt that let the man with just a thin undershirt covering his chest. This one was going to hurt to take off, it would require him raising his arms above his head... or she could cut it off. Tugging it free from his pants she gently eased it up his torso a small gasp breaking the silence between them as darkening purple splotches came into view, "Leon...."4:04 AM
Leon Talbot: He was completely under her power as she removed his clothing, leaving only the undershirt for him to take off. He watched Dierdra contemplate on how to do it; her hands gently tugged it free from his pants as she pulled it up, Leon helping her with it as she was too short to pull it all the way up to his head. His heart was starting to pick up a pace. He knew she was just checking on his injuries but he felt completely naked and vulnerable as Dierdra surveyed the bruises.4:13 AM
Dierdra: Her dark eyes lingered across Leon's mared sink. The already purpling bruises looked angry and harsh. She wouldn't have been surprised if he had a few cracked ribs. Delicate fingers connected with one of the marks. Dierdra could feel the heat radiating from the wound, blood rushing to the area, and gently she applied more pressure to test out her theory.
