She laughed softly, slipping a bookmark into her book, which was really just the receipt, "Only slightly?" she asked, shifting again in her chair. This girl was fun to flirt with.
Angel (rp O/O Romance/ r rated) OPEN
Adrienne stayed leaned back in her own seat, but kept her eyes on Natalie, “Only because we’ve just met.” She rested a hand over her midsection as a habit, “You don’t know anything about me, nor I you. Apart from our names.”
"Well I guess that's fair" she replied, sitting back too and taking a sip of the iced tea she had gotten earlier from the cafe near by.
April glanced at her drink, “What is that?” She tilted her head, “Iced coffee or tea?” She crossed her legs, resting her book in her lap again.
"Close guesses, but it's iced tea" she replied, subconsciously moving closer to Adrienne as she spoke. This girl was gorgeous.
Oops, I mixed her up with another one of my characters)
Adrienne allowed herself to smile, but just enough to slightly curve the corner of her lips, but it was a smile nonetheless, “I assumed it was an iced some sort of beverage.”
“Well, you were right.” She smiled, desperate to make conversation with this beautiful woman. “What book are you reading?” She asked, looking down at the girl’s book and trying to see the cover
She tilted her book up to show her, “It’s a collection of scientific essays about human biology and reproduction. Are you interested?” She lifted an eyebrow to the attractive young lady in front of her with a playful grin plastered to her face. Natalie couldn’t be much younger than her; maybe a year, she guessed.
"Biologie d'Humain ? C'est écrit à l'avant" she said before she could answer, her voice thick with a french accent. She soon realized she'd spoken french, which was normally only while on the phone with friends back in Europe. "Sorry, I normally only speak french with good friends back in Europe" she explained, her eyes leaving the other's face in embarrassment and trailing the outside of her own book in her lap.
“It’s fine,” Adrienne dismissed, “What did you say? In English this time,” she teased, uncrossing her legs. She shifted forward to listen, one hand bracing her stomach.
"The title of your book is on the front page, that's how I figured it out" she replied, leaning back in her chair as she watched her carefully.
“Oh,” she recalled and turned the book around to look at the cover, “Yes. I’ve been needing to educate myself on the topic recently.”
Jake tapped his foot as he read his own book, pretending not to be listening to their conversation.
"For school?" she asked, hoping to keep the conversation going. Hopefully, she wasn't overbearing, she really wanted to get to know her.
Adrienne shook her head, “I graduated high school last year and I’m taking a gap this year before college for..” she glanced off to the side to think of a word, “..personal reasons,” she brushed it off.
"That's cool" she replied, shifting in her seat. "Other than non-fiction, is there anything else you enjoy reading?" she asked, hopeful that she wasn't intruding too much.
Adrienne nodded, "I like science fiction," she answered, "some historical fiction too, especially if its more fact based instead of made up."
"I guess I can't agree with you too much on that. I read medical stuff all day, so I prefer to let my mind wander when I have free time," she replied, brushing hair out of her face. "I do like documentaries though" she added, looking over at her as a smile pricked the corners of her lips.
Adrienne finally, genuinely, mirrored the prickling smile, “I like documentaries too. Particularly ones about human psychology.” For her, now it was a playful competition about who ingested the most intellectual media.
“Well, I’m embarrassed to say I couldn’t top you on that. Forensic sciences has always interested me but I’ve been too busy to read up on it” she replied, looking her in the eyes, biting her own lip when she saw the smile come onto her face. “You have a very gorgeous smile” she blurted out, her grin turning slightly sheepish after she spoke, embarrassed that she’d blurted out again
Adrienne couldn't help the slight blush on her face. She stammered at the compliment, "I-uh..thank you, I guess" She wasn't used to being flirted with, especially after her breakup. Still, she didn't know how to react.
Jake's excitement only swelled. He covered his mouth with a hand, "Ooooooohhh!!!"
"Shut up!" Adrienne snapped at him and playfully whacked his shoulder.
She smirked at both Adrienne’s and Jake’s reaction, her eyes glittering with the playfulness that her smirk displayed. She chuckled, biting her lip excitedly as she watched her love interest hit her best friend innocently, the diamonds on her canines showing predominantly
Adrienne turned her attention back to her new acquaintance with a returned playful smile. The smile slowly faded and her lips pursed with still a hint of that grin. One hand lifted up to touch her upper lip while the other stayed over her stomach. "I'm guessing you're still a student? What year are you?"
"Second" she replied, watching her fingers land on her lips before forcing her own eyes back up to Adrienne's, begging her mind not to make a fool of herself. She couldn't help herself though, her eyes dropping back to her lips for a second as she bit her own, returning her eyes to the other's in desperate attention to focus.
"And you?" she asked, referring to the same question she'd asked her.
