Anniversary Party - Open RP

Jan 16, 2008 14:07

Shawn has taken care of absolutely everything. There are flowers and drinks and different types of music. There is food and loads of pineapples. All that stuff that either shouldn't break or demands too much space is simply out of the way and it actually looks very different if you know what it looks like originallyStill, the pin-ball machine is at ( Read more... )

Shawn returns the hug eagerly, beaming.

"This? This is... it's..."

Oh.

It's..." His grin turns in something embarassed. "It's, uh, it's my anniversary."

Wow, this is really harder than he thought. Not that they have any obligations with each other - after all this totally no bounds is the thing that makes them get along so well... but still, Shawn doesn't want her to think he's that kind of guy. He doesn't think she will, at least he hopes she won't because he's pretty sure she's smart and witty and might even see through all this. Not that he can tell her what's going on, though.

"But, I mean, we're cool, right? This isn't a problem for you? Because if it is I must assure you that-" Jeez, no, he can't do that.

"Look," he starts again in a low voice, quickly looking to the left and right, a slightly troubled expression on his face. "I know this must be very much like an Alias episode. Not that I watch Alias. But I could imagine the episodes are a little like this. The point is..." he tries getting back to the subject, ( ... )

"Another Anna?" Ray looks impressed. "Gee, what are the odds?" With another sip of his punch - why the hell did he have to take Shawn's drink?! - his smile widens but he's careful not to return her favour and give her a full-blown once over too. He's learned enough to know women don't take too kindly to that. Still, a little peeking wouldn't hurt anyone. "Seems all the pretty ladies are called that."

"Common name," she said thinly. "You must think a lot of women are pretty then."

"I'm a man of fine taste," he responds with a slight tilt of his head and a subtle smile.

Just not when it comes to who he steals his drinks from, it seems.

"I'm sure," she said, rolling her eyes slightly, as she went to get herself something else to munch on.

Ray frowns when she walks away. The youth of today...

And just so she knows what she's missing out on, he calls out after her, "This is Armani!" And points at his suit jacket.

Shawn pats Ray's back in sympathy. "Yeah, we feel your pain," he comments.

Anna turned around to face him, chuckling slightly, before motioning to her dust covered jeans and t-shirt -- they were well worn, and no where near fancy. "Do I look like I care about Armani?"

"Do I look like I care that you don't?" Ray replies, opening his arms out wide and giving her one of his first genuine smiles all evening.

She crossed her arms in front of her chest and raised an eyebrow again. "Then why did you bring it up in the first place?"

"Because like I said, I'm a man of fine taste." He gestures to his suit and then to her. "In everything," he grins.

When he realises Shawn's hand is still on him, his smile turns upside down and he shrugs off the psychic, before picking off invisible lint from the spot Shawn had touched. Seriously, a guy should tell another guy when he's going to touch him like that in public. People might get ideas.

She wanted to laugh. She really did. "While I appreciate the compliment, I prefer a guy who's less worried about what things look like, and more interested in the substance behind things."

"Hey, I can do substance," Ray assures her with a confident nod, "I'm a real substancy kind of guy. Some people even call me Ray McSubstance," he waves a hand, "but that was back in high school." Great. Way to make himself sound like a drug dealer.

This time she did laugh. "You make it sound like that was so long ago?"

Ray ducks his head and throws a tight smile down at the floor. "Well, it definitely wasn't last year," he replies, looking back up. Unlike Anna, who looks like she's young enough to still be a student.

She nodded. "I figured as much. Wasn't last year for me either, but -- it was close enough."
