[She wants to reach over the table and strangle him.]

I've been busy.

So have I. I'm glad we could catch up.

[Clicking over a coffee girl who's just clearing up some dishes. He doesn't care if this place doesn't have waitressing service, he's ordering a black coffee from her anyway.]

How's the weekend been?

[Ripping off a small piece of her croissant, she pops it into her mouth, chewing longer than necessary, swallowing, then taking a sip of tea.]

Give me one good reason to not teleport out of here after slapping you.

[Pause.]

Because I made the effort to come out here?

yay :D fishnets September 7 2011, 05:46:01 UTC
I'm not sure if that's good enough. [Yet she isn't making any motion to leave, so...]

It'll have to be for the moment. [Oh look, coffee, his favourite. Sipping innocently.]

just as zee must... sob. fishnets September 7 2011, 05:53:26 UTC
You have a moment before I leave. I'm not going to play games with you, James. I'm sure you expect me to just deal with whatever you feel like saying or doing because I'm easy like that, aren't I? [oh, she mad.]

[Still? How can she not forgive this adorable face?]

You're not easy. I never meant that. [And he sounds genuine in that. Regretful, almost.]

[She lowers her voice, trying not to cause a scene. She can't look at him right now.] You made me feel very... cheap. And that's not okay.

[A sigh as he looks into his coffee. He's already tried the arguing back tactic twice now and that hasn't worked.]

I know. I can't excuse it.

right!! <3 <3 <3 fishnets September 7 2011, 06:22:16 UTC
[No. It just made her feel attacked. :(]

No, you can't. [A beat and she sips more of her tea.] I broke things off with Ted, anyway. Booster will come back, eventually, I'm sure. And I can't see myself in anything long-term with him.

Then it was more than a one off?-- Actually, forget it. You're right, it's none of my business. [Still not looking up.]

I don't know. I like Ted. He's my friend. [She slept with him again again, too.] But he's not my type. I mean, he sort of is. But he's not like Terry was. [She says that name fondly, but there's more behind it than just that.]

Long-term was never an option. [She stares into her tea. Ugh.]

You don't need to tell me all of this.

No. I don't. [She allows silence to settle between them now as she picks at her croissant, breaking it into small pieces on its plate, but not eating any of it.]
