drinking in order to feel

Jul 09, 2010 09:40

WHO: Gaius Baltar and Selina Kyle
WHERE: Pea Green Boat coffee shop
WHEN: Wednesday afternoon
WARNINGS: It is likely Baltar is going to be a sleazy flirt. Otherwise, none?
SUMMARY: Gaius asked Selina on a date. Oh boy.
FORMAT: Starting with paragraph

While he waited for Selina, he looked for his dream woman.

In the windows. In the glass tables. In the coffee mugs of the people who walked by. It was a habit he hadn't quite fallen out of since he arrived in this place, this Earth. He was starting to miss her. Her gentle fingers, her warm lips, her murmurs, her direction. But if he had achieved his destiny, been blessed with salvation, could it be that he no longer needed her? It was a comforting thought, the idea that this place was a gift, and so he stayed with it rather than wallowing in his unexpected loneliness. The alternative, he had learned earlier, was insanity. The choice had been obvious.

He never needed her anyway.

He sat at a two person table by the window, his fingers knitted together. He wore a casual, red collared shirt. Business slacks. He didn't know what Selina looked like, but he expected she'd be beautiful. If he hadn't, he wouldn't have invited her in the first place.
