"I can call it whatever I want.  Tea party seems to sum it up pretty well."  Cadence waited out in the living room for him to come out, taking her shoes off and putting them by the door.  "You know we have a spare bedroom, right?  You’re allowed to use it."

[trammelthewolf]

"Is it even a tea party if it's just the two of us?" He shrugged and took a seat on the couch before laying on his side. "Nah. I'm plenty good with the couch. See. I'm meant for it."

[the-dancing-queen]

"Yeah, I do, and it has.  Think the last time you were here was for a tea party.  Not sure what time that was, though."  There had been lots of tea parties between them, whenever Anthony was feeling down and sometimes when he had trouble sleeping.  

"Yeah, sure."  She led him up the stairs and into the house.  "You remember where it is, right?"

[trammelthewolf]

"Tea party..." He scoffed, "You can't call it that.. It's just me.. wanting a cup or two...." He looked around, feeling it a bit odd since he hadn't been here in a while. "Y-Yeah. Um. Yeah." He went to use the bathroom and came back out after awhile. "I'll.. take the couch then." He pointed at it.

"And yet you have yet to turn and walk away."  He had every chance to, not that she’d let him walk away without a good reason.  She was stubborn like that, always had been since the beginning, and now with the added aggression from her wolf side, the stubbornness only increased.  

She sat in silence, humming along to the radio on songs that she knew and looking out the window.  When they finally got to her house, she unbuckled her seat belt and looked at her friend in the driver’s seat, unmoving.  She wanted to say something, but she stayed silent.  Instead she got out of the car and jogged around to the other side.  She opened his door and held her hand out to him.  ”Can I help you, ma’am,” she teased, bowing politely, hand still extended.

[trammelthewolf]

He glanced up when his thoughts were interrupted. "Shut up." He chuckled while he still stayed seated, looking up at her, "You really want me to stay over?" He sighed and got out of his car, "It's been a while since I was last here... " Locking his car, Anthony slowly walked up to the door. The urge to just leave and get his blood was tempting but the girl was persistent. She wanted him to stay. Running a hand through his hair, he looked at the blond, "Mind if I use the bathroom first? Had a bit too much pop back at the theatre." He grinned stupidly, waiting for her.

"Sleep is glorious," she said with a laugh, "and you seriously should consider getting more of it."  

She looked up at him and smiled.  ”Yes, my dose of Anthony.”  She was happy he still remembered.  ”I could never have enough of you, even if we were to spend every minute of every day together.”  Which was true for the most part.  She’d never tire of him and he’d always be a welcome presence in her life.  ”It’ll be fabulous.”  She took his hand and started pulling him in the direction of his car.  ”You’re taking me home and you’re staying the night.  I’m not taking no for an answer.”

[trammelthewolf]

Now that she was basically dragging him to his own car, Tony couldn't say no. He was sure Cady made him soft somehow but he didn't exactly hate it for some reason. "God you're cheesy." He laughed, shaking his head is mock disapproval. "And impossible." He got in his car and pulled out of the lock, make their way to her place. He turned on the radio so they wouldn't have to sit there in awkward silence as he thought about what she said. That she could never have enough of him even if they were stuck together forever. Surely she'd be tired of him at some point right? It's only normal. 

Finally they've arrived and he pulled up her driveway. It's been a while since he was last here, Anthony just sat there staring at her place, not intending to move any time soon.

Cadence laughed and shook her head.  ”No point in babysitting you unless I’m getting paid for it.  You’re a handful.”  She looked down, tracing a random pattern across the cement.  ”Two things.”  She looked back up at him.  ”One, I’m looking out for you.  Not because I think you’re going to do something stupid, but because you have bags under your eyes and look like you could use a quiet place to stay for a night.”  She looked back down again, her voice dropping a bit.  ”Secondly… I’m just selfish and want you around me.”

[trammelthewolf]

"Sleeps for wussies." He grumbled, rubbing his eyes, not that it improved how they looked. At her second reason, Tony smiled softly. Cadence was adorable, always had been in his eyes and for her to constantly worry about him was touching — if only Tony deserved it. "Your dose of Anthony, was it? Didn't get enough of me yet? It wouldn't be .. a joyous time though if you hung around me..."

[the-dancing-queen]

"Home.  You can come with me, you know.  My parents aren’t home."  She knew he wasn’t going home.  When she had visited earlier, the place looked like it hadn’t been lived in for awhile.  It didn’t really surprise her, what with memories of Ivy lingering there.  "Actually, I insist."

She shrugged.  It was time spent with Tony and that’s all that mattered.

[trammelthewolf]

"You insist that I come with you?" Tony chuckled, "I thought I said I don't need a babysitter." He knew what she was doing. Something bad went down in his life and Cady would always want to make sure he wouldn't do something stupid. In his opinion, it wasn't stupid. He just wanted to quickly get a spot of V or whatever Demon blood he had left. It had been a few hours since the last but he needed it. It had been a shit week, he should be allowed to. 

"I'm not going to do something dumb, if that's what you're worrying about..."

"Could be and it did?  Huh… guess it just wasn’t my cup of tea, then."  Though she hadn’t really paid too much attention to the movie, so she couldn’t really judge it too harshly.  It didn’t matter, anyway.  The main reason for the movie was to give Tony a distraction, and because a distraction for her wasn’t too bad either.

She threw her trash away outside the theater and stuffed her hands into her pockets.  ”Where you heading to now?”  It wasn’t too late.  The sun was down, but most of the establishments in the town were still open.

[trammelthewolf]

"Uh.. I think.. I'm going to.. like.. I don't know.. head home and maybe do something later? I don't know.. " He looked around, watching people leave the theatre, "Where you going?" He crossed his arms, rubbing his face with a hand before giving a light sniff. 

".....Thanks for.. you know, watching the movie with me.. even if you weren't.. that into it." 

[the-dancing-queen]

Breaking the Avoidance Game :: Tony + Cady

[the-dancing-queen]

Cady rolled her eyes, knowing he was just using the start of the movie as an excuse so he wouldn’t have to answer.  She didn’t push it, though.  There would be plenty of time to bug him and get answers out of him later, though she knew she needed to be careful about that because she’d been doing a lot of that today and didn’t want to overwhelm him.  Cadence turned her attention to the movie and let it go for now.  

The movie wasn’t all the exciting.  Even when the action picked up, it wasn’t really all that great and left her feeling a little disappointed at the end.  When the movie finished, she gathered her trash and led the way out of the theater.  ”You know?  The reason I think the theater was so empty was because everyone knew it wasn’t all that hot.”

[trammelthewolf]

During the whole movie, Tony focused on the screen, not even giving Cady one glance except for when he wanted a bit of her snack. He always loved cartoons even though his sister would have picked on him for that since it wasn't all that "bad ass". Ivy... Damnit, it still bugged him that Ivy was gone, but he was somehow handling it. He wanted to dabble in the demon's blood again, but it's been ages since he last saw his supplier and he hadn't ran into any of the other demons either. Vivian and Eve both disappeared so he wasn't sure how he was going to score some new blood. The vampires weren't in town either. Tony sighed in his seat as his mind progressed further into his blood venture rather than the movie. 

When it ended, Tony snapped out of his trance when he saw Cady walked right in front of him to exit the aisle. "Well, it's been up for ages, so maybe we've just seen it later than everyone since I heard the box office was actually pretty decent."

She quirked a brow at him.  ”I need a reason to sleep over, now?  I never used to need one.”  Her wanting to sleep over was partly because she was worried about him.  Anthony seemed calm now, but in her experience, it was easy to set him off.  It was only part of the reason though.  ”We haven’t been around each other for over a week, closer to two.  I’m suffering from a severe dose of Anthony withdrawal.”  She missed him.  Truly and dearly.  Being around him made her happy and she loved him.  What other reasons were needed?  ”But if you don’t want me to, I suppose I can survive.”

[trammelthewolf]

He shrugged in response. Then was different, they were together, then was when he didn't mind staying home. The wolf now was avoiding it altogether, spending most his nights at work, and most his days outside. He had been planning on selling the house and finding a motel or some place smaller for himself. He kept his eyes on the screen, not knowing what to say to her. "..Movie's starting.." 

[the-dancing-queen]

[the-dancing-queen]

"Nope.  It’s always been Cady, except for that short period of time you called me Cadence after we broke up."  Cadence leaned back in her seat and propped her feet up on the back of the chair in front of her, since no one was sitting in it.  "Alrighty, then.  I guess you are relived from the duty of being my cling-buddy."  She was quiet for a moment, listening and watching the crappy pre-previews with movie and actor facts and quizzes.  "You should let me sleepover tonight," she said nonchalantly.  "Or you should sleep over at my house since you’ve been avoiding home as of late."

[trammelthewolf]

"...Whatever, it's the same thing..." He mumbled, paying more attention to the screen now despite the previews of upcoming movies weren't interesting him at all. Picking out more nachos and dipping them in the cheese before eating, Tony shifted in his seat, trying to get comfortable. "What?" He looked over when she spoke up, ignoring her last comment, "Why do you want to sleepover?" He had a feeling that she wanted to make sure he didn't do anything stupid again, but a babysitter wasn't what he was expecting at this time, or at all in general.

"The only times I ever watch them are when friends drag me out to see them.  Much like now."  She quirked a brow at him upon hearing the new nickname.  "Cads?"  Not that she minded it.  He had just never told her it before, so it intrigued her.  "You can do a lot more with animation than you can with live action.  You never know."

[trammelthewolf]

He looked over at her, "What? Cady? Cads?isn't that like, the same thing?" He shrugged, "True, but it's not a scary cartoon, it's like rated PG. So I think we're good." He shifted in his seat, his arm over the arm rest as he popped another nacho with his other hand.

"I guess.  Some movies are better seen in theater, you know?  With a big screen and surround sound."  She rolled her eyes at him.  "Figures.  Can’t say that I always do either.  Depends on who I bring.  And, as you can see," she motioned across the back row they were sitting in "I also prefer the back."  She quirked a brow at him.  "It’s not scary though, right?  

[trammelthewolf]

"I guess... I rarely watch them though, so it probably doesn't matter." He laughed, "I suppose it depends, me, rarely." He shook his head, "it's a cartoon, Cads, how scary can it possibly be?"

Cady shrugged and reached over to remove the popcorn from Anthony’s balancing act.  ”Main reason I don’t go to movies when they first come out.  People are so noisy and it’s annoying.”  She scooped out a few pieces of popcorn from the bag and popped them into her mouth.  “So you don’t know anything about this movie?”

[trammelthewolf]

"Might as well just wait for the DVD then, isn't it?" He shrugged, "I don't usually pay attention to the movie anyways, and me and my date usually sit in the back." he took his nachos and dipped it in the cheese, "Nope, not at all.I just randomly pickedit."

"Truuuuuue."  She giggled and ran a hand through her blonde hair.  “Fine, fine.  I won’t forget.  Promise."  She nodded and headed into the theater.  She showed the usher her ticket and went into the first dark room on the right.  Either they were early, or no one wanted to come and watch the film because much the theatre was empty.  She climbed up the stairs and took two of the seats near the back and the center.  Cady sat back in the seat and crossed her legs, resting one over the other at the knee.

[trammelthewolf]

Heading into the theatre, he looked around, and immediately spotted the girl. Carefully balancing popcorn, nachos and god knows what else, he managed his way to her and sat down. "Here we are. Seems like everyone's seen this movie already." He shrugged, "Whatever, less nuisances." He chuckled.

Cadence laughed.  “I doubt you would’ve had much fun since we were oggling over hero butts in spandex.  But we can do it again sometime, without the oggling."  Although that wasn’t the complete reason.  It had been right after she had been turned, so even if they had wanted to invite Anthony, he probably would have declined it.  Cadence raised her brows at him.  “You know, not all cartoons are particularly good.  But yeah, popcorn sounds good.  I don’t really drink soda."  She smiled slightly while he looked at the menu board hanging up behind the concession stand.  “I can pay for my own, though, since you bought my ticket for me."

[trammelthewolf]

"Dude, female hero butts are awesome to look at." He laughed, thinking about people like Jessica Alba as Invisible Woman. "Whatever, you better not forget next time." He chuckled as he lined up for the food, "It's fine, I'll just get it, here..." He gave her her ticket, "Head in first if you like, I'll be there with the popcorn soon." He grinned as he went up to the cashier to order, adding a few items on his list.
