"Siva, babe wait!" Lex called after her, standing up but not following her. He'd learned not so long ago when to leave her alone, and his dark eyes flashed on Gel, "Well thanks a lot you stupid little git," he spat at her, pointing his finger in her general direction. "Don't you know anything about pregnant girls? Don't you know anything about anything other than hair doo dads and face cream? You can't talk to her like that, and you owe her an apology!"
He was seething with anger, "You think you're a flowerpot because you've got a hole in your bum, but let me tell you something. You're only a..a small, little bit of a woman compared to my Siva. And she's going to be gorgeous, fat, skinny, pregnant or not, and if you ever," he leaned in a bit as he said it, "ever again say anything like that to her again, especially while she's pregnant, I'll have your guts for garters!"
Taking his plate without losing his hard gaze on her face, Lex stood up straight and marched off, not in the mood to deal with anyone else, in the direction of the Second Cafe.
Gel was startled by teh looks Siva was giving her, then yelled out an "Owww! You stomped my foot!" before she left. Lex started in on her and Gel just scoffed, offended by what he was saying, looking absolutely horrified and appaled. He walked off before she could even think of a good retort, and had he just threatened her?
Crossing her arms over her chest, her cheeks flared with embarassment as she sat back in the chair, staring in disbelief at the table. "Well, I just never, you try to do a nice thing and help someone and it all goes haywire! Can you believe them?" Gel looked at Patsy with flashing eyes, she was a nice girl, surely she would see that Gel was just trying to be nice.
Patsy smiled at Gel as she complimented her outfit, however awkwardly, and then blinked as Siva stormed off, Lex following.
"That was odd." Maybe Gel hadn't said exactly the right thing, but Patsy didn't think for a minute that she had meant to offend Siva. "Don't worry about it, Gel. They've both been in cross moods all evening. I wouldn't let it bother you. You were just trying to be nice."
"Yeah," Gel said simply through her frowny pout before taking a deep breath and sitting up a bit straighter, "Well, they're going to get huge wrinkles looking like that, anger is bad for the complexion. Say, Patsy, I hope you don't mind, but Zandra has kind of moved into my room so I think I'll stay with you tonight. You don't mind do you?"
Gel didn't exactly wait for an answer, she simply gave Patsy a bright and cheerful fake smile and patted her hand, "There's a pet. I'm going to go on to bed then, I have my beauty regimen to get to and if I don't get started soon, well, I'll just be too exhausted," she said this as if she'd been the bride, but she had done a lot of hair and work today, and it felt as if the day had dragged on for weeks and weeks. "Night," she said brightly before marching off in the direction of Patsy's Bedroom.
Patsy blinked a little as Gel invited herself back into her room for the night and bounced off without an answer. "Oh well." Patsy murmured to herself. "I do have two beds, she won't be that much hassle, if she's asleep." Patsy liked Gel, she really did, she was friendly and cheerful and amazing with hair and makeup, but seemed a bit...dumb...at times. Patsy smiled and cleared her dinner away, making her way out of the cafe. She didn't want to go to bed yet, but didn't know where else to go, either.
He was seething with anger, "You think you're a flowerpot because you've got a hole in your bum, but let me tell you something. You're only a..a small, little bit of a woman compared to my Siva. And she's going to be gorgeous, fat, skinny, pregnant or not, and if you ever," he leaned in a bit as he said it, "ever again say anything like that to her again, especially while she's pregnant, I'll have your guts for garters!"
