Later Saturday night
Who: Vito and Anna
Where: Their large and very populated apartment, currently empty except for them
[Anna] *tacklehugs Vito*
[Vito]: Ooof! *gets tacklehugged by the Slayer; likes it*
[Anna] I love you, V
[Vito]: Love you too. Nice bearhug.
[Anna] *grins*
[Vito]: Geez, we haven't seen each other in, what ... hours?
[Anna]Yeah... I hate not seeing you
[Vito]: *kisses Anna*
[ANna] *kisses Vito* V... I need to talk to you
[Vito]: Okay. What's up?
[Anna] I really love you... but I don't want you to lose your job if they find
out about us
[Vito]: Well ... It hasnb't been an issue, yet. And I hope it stays that way.
Because i really love you, too.
[Anna] I know this is my destiny... but there is another slayer now. What if
I'm done with slaying? Could I quit the OSI?
[Vito]: ... well ... no.
[Anna] Really? Because I'm sure she's ready to get back to slaying. I mean,
I'll still kill stuff and protect people, but just not for the OSI
Anna] I want to go to europe again, and I want to... just be with you
[Anna] With you, I feel, I don't know, I feel like everything is right
[Vito]: But you can't let these things distract you. Sure, she's back from the
dead, but the the thing is ... if anything happens to you, then a new Slayer will be
called. With not only me, but the whole OSI watching your back, that won't happen for a
good long time.
[Anna] They aren't distracting me. The rules are stupid. If the stupid rule
didn't exist, I'd love staying with the OSI
[Anna] Okay, that's a lie, but I'd work for them, no problem
[Vito]: But that "must" in there rankles a bit, doesn't it?
[Anna] Yeah
[Vito]: Still, they're your best bet for staying alive long enough to go to Europe
again, and stuff.
[Anna] What if I don't stay alive long enough? I want to enjoy my time.
[Anna] What if I don't stay alive long enough? I want to enjoy my time.
[Vito]: You will. And you'll enjoy your time, it won't be so bad.
[Anna] The only way I can enjoy it, is if I'm with you
[Vito]: Well, you're with me now. *smiles*
[Anna] *kisses Vito* And...wow. I'm so glad I stopped you that day
[Vito]: *laughs, and kisses back* Same here.
[Anna] ...are we alone?
[Anna] This apartments like a mexican hotel... just want to be sure
[Vito]: *listens* ... all quiet on the western front. Nobody's watching
movies, takign a shower or snoring, anyway.
[Anna] Do you know where my sister went?
[Vito]: I think she's hanging out with Morrigan.
[Anna] You think? *concerned* She didn't leave a phone number or anything?
[Vito]: She's fine, Anna. Yes, she's with Morri, call and check if you want.
[Anna] I trust you, V. It's just- nothing can happen to her. Okay?
[Anna] *de-shirts* Nothing to you, either
[shirtless-Anna] Good. Would you ever marry me?
[Vito]: Absolutely. Though OSI might figure out we're involved, then.
*smirks*
[Anna] What if I used my birth name? They don't even have that on record
anywhere
[Vito]: I'm sure someone from higher up in the food chain would want to meet
my lovely wife. Or someone lower in the food chain who wanted to knock me *off* the
foodchain and take my job.
[Anna] *sighs* You're right.
[Vito]: In a perfect world, yes, I'd love to marry you. But things'd have to
change a lot before that's possible.
[Vito]: In a perfect world, yes, I'd love to marry you. But things'd have to
change a lot before that's possible.
[Anna] *reaches in her pants pocket for something* V... I got these in Italy.
We'll probably never get to use them, but *hands vito a velvet pouch*
[Vito]: *reaises an eyebrow and looks in the pouch* ... I admire your taste, Ms.
Caruso.
[Anna] Your relatives... they were a little disappointed, but then they liked
me. That nice old lady helped me pick these.
[Vito]: Aunt Grazia helped you pick those out? That's cool. She won't tell
the rest of the family about it, either.
[Anna] Is that good? *takes them out of the bag, and looks at them closely*
[Anna] Give me your left hand, V
[Vito]: *does so*
[Anna] Who needs priests and legalities? *takes one of the rings, and places it
on Vito's ring finger* Vito, do you promise to be faithful to me, and all the other
husband stuff?
[Vito]: Absolutely. *takes the other ring* And Anna, do you promise the
same stuff?
[Anna] Oh hell yeah
[Vito]: *grins, and rings the Anna*
[Anna] I now pronounce us top secret husband and wife. We just have to hide
the rings... and not tell anyone. Anyway. Kiss the bride.
[Vito]: *kisses the bride*
[Anna] *kisses* Thank you...
[Vito]: No, thank you. That was very romantic.
[Anna] It was? I just... I have this silly fantasy where we're somewhere, and
people are happy that we're together. Where they don't care about all the other stuff
[Anna] It was? I just... I have this silly fantasy where we're somewhere, and
people are happy that we're together. Where they don't care about all the other stuff
Vito]: That's a nice fantasy. And maybe it'll be real, eventually.
[Anna] I hope so... but this will do for now, right?
[Vito]: Definitely.
[Anna] You'll keep your ring near you, right? I'm going to put mine on a
chain, since I can't wear it
[Vito]: I'll just put it on another finger.
[Anna] I could do that too? Right?
[Vito]: Welllllll ... mine is just a band. Yours looks like a wedding ring. You
could say it was your grandmother's or something ...
[Anna] Around my neck, then. And you'll have yours on another finger.
[Vito]: *nods* Wonderful.
[Anna] *kisses the Vito*
