Julie shook her head but smile as she slipped one of Zack's shirts on. She crawled into bed beside him and snuggled close. "Guess I'll just go to sleep tooβ¦"
Zackary gave a soft noise as her movement on the bed woke him up. He turned to look at her, softly crooning in a question.
(sorry to break up this tender moment butβ¦)
Graci hummed lowly and shut her eyes as he kissed up and down her neck. βI think I will tell you when it is just one-on-one.β
Jericho chuckled, pulling away. "Shame. I'm so curious now!" He took another sip of his drink, eyes dancing merrily.

(Lmao. She doesnβt know rough-nβ-tough-boss-man M.)
βOo,β He hummed softly, reading with interest at the sundaes. βThat sounds nice.β
(Lol. Like I said, she's biased. ;P)
Jenny walked over, much less suddenly than before, and set their drinks down in from of them. "One raspberry lemonade and one coffee. Are you ready to order, now? Or should I come back in a bit?" she asked with a wide grin.
"I'm ready," Alison said, smiling as she turned to M. "What about you, dear?"
(Lmaoooo)
Graci opened her eyes one more. They glimmered in the half-light of the bar. βIf you are so curious, why not we go now?β

"I'm ready," Alison said, smiling as she turned to M. "What about you, dear?"
(.-.)
M looked up from his menu at the two women, his eyes flitting to one and the other.
βOh, Alison you may go first. Iβm ready.β
Julie smiled at him and placed a hand on his cheek, her thumb caressing him. "You are a very lucky man. Metaphorical isn't. In currently, so I have no work." she explained.
Zackary shut his eyes again, slowly drifting off again. He purred softly in response.

Alison smiled and nodded at him before she faced the waitress once more. "I will have the cheesy bacon and potato soup, please."
M shut his menu reluctantly when it was his turn to order and ordered the french onion soup. He kept his gaze low and glued on the table.
group
Jenny nodded as she jotted down their orders. "All right, then. Anything else that I can get you?"
"Um⦠No, I don't think so. Thank you, though," Alison said with a small smile as she handed her and M's menus over. The waitress grinned as she told them and headed back to the kitchen once more.
Now with nothing to focus on, M tapped on the table idly as he looked around the restaurant some more. His eyes picked up tiny details, such as the spotless corners to the shining tabletops and the tiny cracks in the ceiling and walls.

Alison reached across the table and gently took his hand. She smiled a bit, hoping that she could get him to smile back. She loved his smile, and it came so rarely these daysβ¦
M jumped a little and looked at her, blinking and giving a ting grin in return. He wasnβt really one for smiling, much.
group
"How are you, M? Besides tired and jumpy, that is," Alison asked gently, shifting her hand so that she was holding his.
Juliet sighed with a smile. She leaned in and rested against him. She'd cook when they got up. Something nice for Zack, after all it was his only day off. He should enjoy it.
M blinked at her, shrugging. βIβm as good as I can be. How are you, Alison?β
group
"I'm happy. I get to spend the day with you, which is the perfect way to spend the day, if you ask me," Alison replied, grinning.
Zackary kept purring softly as they curled close to each other. He suddenly stirred fretfully, opening the sheets for her. He wanted to snuggle up with her some more.
M grinned shyly, rubbing the back of her hands with his thumb. βI agree. Itβs a wonderful time, just you and I.β
Graci opened her eyes one more. They glimmered in the half-light of the bar. βIf you are so curious, why not we go now?β
Jericho pretended to look insulted. "My word. Propositioning me on the first date!? My dear Graci, what kind of woman do you think I am?" He winked at her.
group
"Thank you for taking the day off to spend time with me. It means a lot," Alison said softly.
Graci laughed softly and unpocketed some money, setting it down on the table under her drink for whomever found it.
βI do not like to think of it like thaaatβ¦ but hey, itβs fun. I am going up to my apartment. You are free to join meβ¦β
"Thank you for taking the day off to spend time with me. It means a lot," Alison said softly.
M smiled a little and looked down at the table. βYouβre welcome. I just realized how much time Iβve spent away from you.β
group
Alison blushed a little and shrugged. "It's fine, M. Don't worry about it," she whispered, looking down at the table as well.
(straight up going to make him fuck a god ithout him knowing arent you Emi? XD You're evil.)
M glanced up at her again. βBut I feel like I should. Isnβt it unfair to you?β
(straight up going to make him fuck a god ithout him knowing arent you Emi? XD You're evil.)
(Lmao whatβs wrong with that, tho?)
(nada nada limonada)

M glanced up at her again. βBut I feel like I should. Isnβt it unfair to you?β
Alison sighed and chewed on her lip. After a moment, she reluctantly nodded. He would hear her thoughts if she didn't say it, so she may as wellβ¦ "A little, yesβ¦"
βThen I should stay here more. With you,β M decided.
