closed starter for @finelined
eve had spotted her the moment she’d walked in the bar, as if some invisible force was begging her to take notice. once her eyes landed on the blonde woman a floodgate of emotions - guilt, regret, longing - opened up, the feelings strong as ever despite the years that had past. a fleeting thought ran through her mind - maybe the feelings never really went away. obviously, that was ridiculous. eve had left her behind long, long ago (despite how much it broke her heart to do so). she was doing her best to disregard the other woman but kept catching herself staring. it was her inability to look away that caused her to notice the rather persistent man standing next to her, refusing to back off after what seemed like several attempts on the blonde’s part. unable to sit back and watch it any longer, eve moved from her own spot at the bar, gliding over to join the group of two. she slid her arm around the other woman, eyeing the man as she did. “sorry it took me so long babe, the line for the bathroom was ridiculous. i think someone was throwing up in there,” she explained, hoping her ex-friend would play along. “who’s this?” eyes flickered back to the man questioningly, a brow raised at him, almost begging him to test her.
