Dorm Lobby | Wednesday During and After Classes

There was excitement in the air. Okay, maybe that was just the mixture of Caroline's perfume and fresh baked cookies or just the scent of fresh permanent marker emanating from the sign adorning her table in the lobby.

Her purpose was the same as the words on the poster that had been glitter-fied at the KDG meeting:

SHOW OFF!
Sign up to perform in the Student Council Parent Weekend Recital!
When: SATURDAY EVENING
Where: The COMMUNITY CENTER

With a great big smile, Caroline was ready to do her Student Council duty and chat up anyone who looked in need of some persuasion to participate. Um, not that she was going to be using her special, vampiric talents to fill the sign up list. That would be bad, even if it would mean a seriously amazing show.

Hmm. Maybe she should just stick with the cookie bribe.

[The lobby is open! There is OCD!]

"Don't frown," she told him. "This is not a shady massage parlor here. There are no five dollar happy endings."

"Not even for me?" he asked, leaning over to kiss her cheek.

"Nope, nothing for you." Even if she did hold still to let him kiss her. "Sad, isn't it?"

"Very," he sighed. "Does that mean I should let you get back to work then?"

"If that's what you want to do," she shrugged, because obviously he wanted her to frown and be sorry no one was going to keep her company at the booth.

"No," he replied, his fingers rubbing up the back of her neck. "It's kind of boring inside. I did get to shoot my teacher from a slingshot today."

"That's because I'm down here," she reminded him. "My classes are done. I wish I got to shoot someone with a slingshot. I bet I'd be good at that stuff now."

"Huh," he tilted his head, watching her. "I've never seen you kick someone's ass. I bet it's hot."

"Probably to you. You know, I bet I could kick your ass," Caroline replied, looking him over like she was sizing up the giant.

Jake raised an eyebrow at her, because really. Really now. "You could not. We've had it well and truly established that I'm stronger than you. Do we need to arm wrestle again?"

"I so totally and completely could!" Caroline argued. "Have you missed the part where I gain strength over time?" Plus she fought dirty.

"You're going to need a lot more time, babe," Jake scoffed at her.

"Oh, you are so clearly getting your ass kicked by me after this weekend. I'd do it tomorrow but I have recital rehearsal." And he would cope with that.

"Do I get to watch and play test audience?" Jake wondered, easily distracted.

"I dunno. It's kind of a girly thing." And he was not a girl.

He frowned. "So? I get to see a lot of your girly things." Which were, granted, of a very different category.

Of house he'd make it dirty. "You'll see it Saturday if you're good."

See, he was going to try some of that pouting in again. "But I like getting previews."

"You like naked previews. This is different," she explained, smiling at how he pouted. "But maybe after."

"I like both types," he argued, but he couldn't argue with a naked preview. "Like after the recital or after the weekend?"

"Oh, I was thinking after the practice, but if you want to wait..."

She was terrible at faking innocence.

"No!" he growled, reaching for her and trying to drag her into his lap while he tickled her.

Caroline laughed, letting him pull her over even as she fought to push his hands away. "You were the one saying you wanted to wait!"

"I'm just trying to think of your friends," he rubbed at her side after a moment, content to have her closer.

"And um, how is this you thinking of my friends?" Caroline wondered, tilting her head at him.
