This heat was nothing. The SoCal girl just brushed it off and spent her days wandering around in long-sleeved blouses. For only being in the city for a few weeks, she was already accumulating a wardrobe. A girl had priorities.

But speaking of her new wardrobe, there was something that didn't belong hanging around her room. First, it laid on the floor of her bathroom. Then, it was kicked to the end of the bed. Finally, it came to rest on the back of a chair and she was just tired of staring at it. The damn thing was a constant reminder of failure. Also, it smelled.

Jinx was just so hesitant to give Gabriel back his jacket. What the hell was she supposed to say to him? Right, the same thing she said when he threw it at her in the first place: Nothing. It was so weird. Maybe she just expected that the first time a guy handed her a jacket in the rain would be...special. Something sweet or romantic and not something to feel guilty over ( ... )

Oh, that did it. Gabriel attempted to jump to his feet, but grace went out with bellbottoms and his, well, grace and he ended up nearly tripping over the couch, but that didn't stop him from throwing the jacket AT HER HEAD. ...Well, he couldn't teleport in front of her and let her bask in his half-naked glory. He picked the option that involved the least movement.

Look, no one said all his plans had to be genius. He was working with limited options and he was exhausted.

"How's that for disgusting?" He crossed his arms over his chest. Challenge accepted, Jinx. Bring it on.

That was supposed to be the end of that. It was what Madame Rouge would do, right? When the jacket was suddenly pitched right back at her, she screamed through clenched teeth. It hung on top of her awkwardly as she whipped around. Furious, she tore it off herself, threw it down on the ground, then stepped on it. There, take that. She was grinding his generosity into the ground.

"Fuck you, Gabriel!" They just had the best insults today, didn't they? "You're dirty, your scent makes me want to gag, and you're dressed like you should be living in a trailer in the valley!"

Well, this was turning into a fight straight out of a sitcom- a bad one. "Frankly, Scarlet, I don't give a damn. I'm starting to like this dump, so, uh, me and my boxers'll be sticking around for awhile," he shrugged and began pacing out of a lack of anything better to do. "You're twitchier than normal today. Lucy still not putting out?"

Yeah, he went there. And will go ever further.
