"No way. You're beautiful. I mean -- your voice is." Yeah. "With a little practice, you could do that for a living too."

"Thanks but...singing isn't my thing."

"Even if it's not, you're not nearly as bad as you claimed."

2015-11-12 10:38:24

●

"If you say so."

2015-11-12 10:39:01

🌀

"Yes, I /do/, and I'm always right."

2015-11-12 10:39:23

●

"Alright, I'll take your word for it then if you're right."

2015-11-12 10:40:41

"Which I am, but I still expect you not to just drop it."

2015-11-12 10:42:47

●

"Do I ever just drop things?"

"On occasion, I'm betting even you can be clumsy."

"Depends on if I'm wearing flats, heels, or Lance tries to push me."

2015-11-12 10:44:19

"That sounds more like you falling on your face than just dropping the ball."

"Oh, wait till New Years for that."

"A whole seven months? Don't taunt me."

2015-11-12 10:46:58

●

"I'm taunting you right now as we speak."

2015-11-12 10:47:48

🌀

"Oh really? And how?"

2015-11-12 10:48:26

●

"Because it's who I am and I live to taunt."

2015-11-12 10:49:04

🌀

"I don't feel particularly taunted at the moment."

2015-11-12 10:50:38

●

"Oh. Damn. Ren, help me out here."

They held out a handful of chips in front of my nose. "Mmmm, hungry?" I just leaned forward and grabbed one with my teeth. "Dammit!"

2015-11-12 10:52:24

●

She giggled. "Oh well, you tried your best."

2015-11-12 10:53:12

🌀

"But that's not my best." "I cannot be taunted." They tried to pull my tie off me, but I batted their hand away. Then they noticed my rucksack lying between the seats and began to rummage through that instead. "Hold on, /cut that out/." "Nope!"

2015-11-12 10:54:39

She reached foward and took Ren's hand. "We're almost there. Once we're in the room you can snoop around with me all you want."

2015-11-12 10:56:57

🌀

"I'd rather you never did that." "Aww. Okay."

2015-11-12 10:57:49

She intertwined her fingers with there's. Apparently this was 'taunting' enough.

My eyes flicked down to that scene and back to the road. Whatever. She'll hold mine if I buy her mints.

Shortly, we arrived at the hotel. ....not too shabby, actually. This was a pretty big city, so dumpy hotels were rare. Nothing compared to NY, of course, but still impressive in its own right. I parked the car so Ivory could get out and get us a room. Singular. Just how big are these rooms?
