In the Church Basement

[verydistinctive]

[Eliot, has snuck in through the rear of the cellar, mostly to keep suspicion away from him, but he's also hoping to catch his aunt in the act of stealing the remaining statues -- too bad he's got them instead]

[enjoythe_ride]

[Have a very drunk Bela. She needs to escape her husband, and she's also out of wine, so she's going to wander down to the basement. Because really -- it's the last place Hammer would look for her.

She saunters in, looking around at the crates until she spots Eliot -- and well. Hello there]

You're missing the wedding.

[verydistinctive]

[he hadn't expected anyone to wander down here unawares, but there's Bela, the wife of the richest man in the city...]

I'm not sure I'm welcome. I'm just taking care of a few things, then I'll be on my way. [a knowing nod] You shouldn't be down here.

[enjoythe_ride]

[she's not just his wife. she's also ridiculously hot and dressed to kill, if she says so herself]

I shouldn't do a lot of things. But I'd rather be here than there.

[verydistinctive]

[he's noticed the way she's dressed, any male with a beating heart would notice, but he also has something to do and with the truth of Raylene still burning in his memory... he's frustrated enough that he thinks he might do something stupid... with someone very hot]

I think it'd be better if you made your way back to that wedding.

[enjoythe_ride]

I think I could have more fun here.

[and he really is rather attractive. Nice shoulders and all. Good hands. So she's going to get closer, her hands reaching out to rest against his chest gently]

[verydistinctive]

[his hands will gently move to lift hers off of his chest, looking down at her]

I'm sure you could, but your husband is a powerful man that I'd prefer didn't want to make more trouble than I already have. [since he's already got his own father looking to kill him]

[enjoythe_ride]

[eyebrow raise as she curls her fingers around his]

My husband really isn't as powerful as you think he is. I really don't think he cares what I do with my spare time.

[well, she KNOWS he does, but she'd shoot him before he gave her grief about this, and Dick has been upset at his father for days for SOMETHING, and she'll bet cash money that it has to do with that girl he's in love with. Regardless, she's leaning in closer and dropping her voice ... ]

Or who, for that matter.

[verydistinctive]

[that girl, the one Dick is in love with... is Eliot's ex-lover, or at least as close as Raylene would've come to having someone like that. Now though, Eliot isn't sure what to think, Raylene's been lying... to him, to everyone and living as some nun! It's hurtful and frustrating to be put in the dark]

Bela, you shouldn't mix yourself up into the mess I'm in.

[enjoythe_ride]

I'm not.

[leans in a bit, one finger moving into the button of his shirt]

Think of it as me taking you out.

[verydistinctive]

[if he hadn't been alone for all that time, trying to cope with loss and deal with his father's business running the town into the ground... maybe he'd have been more able to resist her]

You're going to get yourself into trouble.

[enjoythe_ride]

[looks up at him]

I think I can handle it.

[verydistinctive]

[dammit... he can smell the wine on her breath and she's so damn close, he's just a man and he's been alone for far too long, so as she leans in closer he moves in that other sixty percent or so and kisses her]

[enjoythe_ride]

[hums softly into the kiss, leaning in to him and moving on hand up through his hair]

[verydistinctive]

[pulls from the kiss to take his glasses off, and returns to the kiss grateful to just put a bit of his worry behind him for a moment]

[enjoythe_ride]

[turns and leans back against the crate, pulling him on top of her]
