Alex. And yes, I’m positive.

[ Maybe too positive, which was why the moment she let’s go and returns to her seat, back turned to him, she starts to question her life choices.

She’s lured meb before, yes, but why did this feel like she was asking the guy out on a date? Why did she feel so...giddy? Hell, she hadn’t even gone through her first beer. Maybe it’s just been too long since she last fed.

She’ll go through another two beers, watching Shizuo as he worked, but also not giving him too much attention. That would be creepy. She really needed to get her act together.

It seemed like forever till the clock finally sturck 3...]

[notapineapple]

Mmm... not as good as havin' you.

[He takes another sniff, and is about to bite before he realizes that... oh. Yeah. Whoops. Not right now. He slips back and tries not to show how red he is.]

A... Anyways. Let's get food.

[bartenderizing]

[ For all that positivity and anticipation, she would notice that Shizuo was very... normal. Almost mundane, if it weren't for the strength he showed when dealing with the rowdier customers. Almost kind, for how he'd call cabs and such, but had limited patience for nonsensical types that would blather on and gloated about those they've taken advantage of.

Shizuo wasn't aware if he was being watched or not, but he made note of how Alex was around the entire evening. Enough for a couple more drinks, and still there as the last customer was out (a little earlier than 3) and he'd cleaned the entire bar for the next crew that would be coming in. Not without saying goodbye to the boss, of course, but being ready meant he was still in the bartender uniform, without any actual changes to his appearance. It seemed he dressed for work before getting to the location instead of when he got there. ]

You didn't have to hang around the entire time if you had other things to do, y'know. Are you going to be okay for this?

[ He'd feel bad if she lost an evening catching up with friends, or something, just because she'd agreed to get coffee. That, or maybe she would've wanted a nap. Who knows. ]

[bartenderizing]

Were you just-

[ He heard that sniff. You better know better by now. Except now Shizuo's red from the top of his head down to his neck at this point. The whole chocolate talk was deciding on a flavor that wouldn't have him smelling too good. Remember? ]

Y-yeah. It's right up ahead.

[sing_for_me]

[But normal was so enticing to her. She's used to terrible things, nasty things. Whatever violence he showed was just to help out. He took care of even the drunks, helping them into their cabs, cutting them off when he needed to. It was pleasant to watch.

He really was a good guy. So for the first time a long time, she contemplated on whether what she was doing was okay or not. Her instincts said one thing, but she felt guiltier than usual.

She'll place her glasses over the sink for him while he's attending to others, and when he cleans up and goes somewhere to the back, she gets up and starts adjusting some chairs that seemed out of place. It wasn't really something she thought about--just that if she could help him a little, that wouldn't be so bad.

Once she hears his voice, she turns around, snapping out of her thoughts. ]

Ah--yes! [ She clears her throat, straightening up. ] I am. Are you though? [Her tone is a bit more playful now, a habit really. ]

[notapineapple]

No. Shaddup.

[He doesn't want to talk about it! He grumbles, his face all bright and red. He moves to push open the door, completely red.]

Y'first.

[knowledgeslut]

Your body knows, doesn't it?

[He moves in and places a hand on Shizuo's head... and moves it down to his cheek to rub him slowly. A soft, Alpha touch on his body and the scent filling his nose and body without remorse.]

It craves this.

[bartenderizing]

[ Filling his body in ways Shizuo didn't really understand or know. Yet it was enough where he couldn't lash out or anything. There was a token attempt to shake his head away from the alpha's hand, it felt like there were immense weights keeping him from doing much more than that. ]

Don't know what you're talking about... My body is feeling pretty weird, though.

[bartenderizing]

Yeah...

[ Sure you weren't. Not that he's going to press on it, as he wasn't really the type to do that in calling people out. Instead he'll go in first and go to one of the terminals to place his order. He's getting actual food, and not just a milkshake, so he can handle being fed from as well. When his order's in, he steps to the side. Renji probably wanted a beer or something. ]

You're up, Renj.

[knowledgeslut]

It's the beginning.

[He moves his hand down to start to remove Shizuo's clothes. Letting his body start to expose itself to the air.]

You'll learn soon enough. And when you do, then I will let you free.

[notapineapple]

Thanks.

[He's absolutely ordering two beers and then some french fries. Seeing as he's getting real eager to just chomp down and get all the blood sucked out.]

It's... so damn quiet.

[bartenderizing]

[ As the alpha scent sunk in even further, having the boy breathe heavier with the passing seconds, he watched as the clothes were undone. ]

Learning how?

[bartenderizing]

Yeah. It's... kinda weird.

[ Getting out the number plate that they'd put at their table for the food to be served to, Shizuo's looking around to realize that... there weren't even many people here. ]

I guess you can check the Dollars site to see what the hell's going on.

[bartenderizing]

Yeah?

[ He seemed to have missed the playful intention in the tone of her voice, and sounded more confused than anything. Being able to watch over, Alex would've been able to realize that Shizuo was just as direct as he was normal, if you discount the strength he displayed earlier. ]

Um. Thanks for helping with cleaning up before. You didn't have to do that.

[ Which is why he was thanking her. Opening the door, he sets the lock up on the inside so that it closes up while they leave. ]

[sing_for_me]

[ He was right. She didn't have to do it, and yet she didn't even think twice. What's more, she didn't actually expect him to thank her for it either. ]

Oh..It's okay. I didn't really..It wasn't much.

[ There's a moment where she pulls back, almost feeling shy, but she quickly shakes head to snap out of it, sliding her arm under his as she walks out to pull him away from the door. ]

Got a place in mind or are you alright with me just kidnapping you?

[bartenderizing]

[ He doesn't really think much of it, and wasn't really used to the gesture, so it's rather easy to pull him away from the door to start walking in... Whichever direction. ]

Honestly, I don't know which places are open now. Usually I... head straight home.

[ And it's in this moment where he realized that that... Kind of sounded pathetic. ]

[sing_for_me]

[ She stops at the end of the sidewalk, peeking up at him. It wasn't so much pathetic really, but... wouldn't that make this task so much easier? ]

Do you have coffee at home?

[bartenderizing]

[ For a moment, he didn't realize the implications. In a way, he didn't even while they were stopped, having thought more about the question itself. ]

Nothing special, but yeah. I've got some...

[sing_for_me]

That's fine with me. More relaxing that way.

[ And she'd get to peek in more into what his world is like--

But of course she was only there for the meal. That's it. ]

Which way?

[bartenderizing]

It's-

[ Wait. She wanted to go to his apartment? Really? That was something that never happened before. It really was just for coffee and to relax, right? ]

It's a bit of a walk. You sure you're going to be okay?

[sing_for_me]

[ Well, she was aiming for a drink of some kind, so he wasn't wrong. Anything else was just a plus. ]

As long as you let me kick off my heels once we get there, I'll be fine.

[ She steps forward and turns, tugging at his arm. ]

So? Are we going or what? [ Her voice may have had a hint of excitement in it. ]

[bartenderizing]

Yeah, that'd be fine.

[ Weren't you supposed to take shoes off at the door anyway? Getting the small tug, he takes a few steps, leading straight across the street. He could walk there pretty easily. ]

I mean, if that's what you want.

[sing_for_me]

It's perfect.

[ Yeah foreigners didn't care much for that, which is what she's been having lately. Easier targets, really.

Alex steps back next to him, still holding on to his arm. He really did smell amazing, so much so that she had to let go at one point lest she just push him into an alley. It was a little embarrassing, really. Maybe once she had her fill, this feeling would just go away. ]

[bartenderizing]

[ With how quickly and determined she'd been to hold on before, Shizuo does slow the pace when she unravels her arm around his. ]

You doing okay? If you're tired, we can take a rest.

[ Because what she needed was to be still next to him. That would help her rest. ]

[sing_for_me]

Ah--Yes! I'm okay.

[ What was she doing? She'd never pulled away like that before. That sure was one way to give her prey the wrong idea.

She quickens her pace so she was still next to him (the guy had long legs okay), reaching out to just hold his sleeve. ]

I just..um..wasn't sure if that was uncomfortable for you.

[ Because suddenly she's worried about boundaries? ]
