Re: Saints and Sinners Masquerade....

Following Vanessa outside, he stepped close and put a tentative hand on her shoulder. "Are... Are you all right?" It was a stupid question, even by his standards. "I mean... Are you going to be all right?"

Vanessa M. Abrams Tue Jan 25, 2011 11:49 pm

Vanessa shrugged, "I guess we'll see, won't we?" That cab to the airport was sounding more tempting by the minute.

Nathaniel Archibald Tue Jan 25, 2011 11:59 pm

He frowned for a moment before clenching his jaw. "After this... I have something I want to ask you." Now really wasn't the time for this...

Vanessa M. Abrams Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:00 am

"Ask me now." She said as she walked a little faster. "You may not get the chance to ask me later."

Nathaniel Archibald Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:02 am

With a rough exhale, he wound his arms around her waist and hauled her back against his chest. Dipping his head a little, he whispered quickly in her ear before he lost his nerve. "Marry me? Please?"

"The limo will be here any second." Chuck said and then looked at the two. "Am I interrupting something?" Despite the situation, he couldn't help but grin.

Vanessa M. Abrams Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:05 am

Vanessa had never been more grateful to see Chuck in her life. "We have to go." She said as she pulled away from him and straightened out her dress.

Nathaniel Archibald Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:09 am

Nate stared at her as she walked off towards Chuck and felt something quietly break in his chest before following along a bit behind.

Brianna Caulfield Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:14 am

Hitching her skirt a little higher, she caught up with Vanessa. "What was that," she asked quietly.

**Haley Reagan Archibald** Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:15 am

Haley jogged to catch up with Nate as she slung her arm over his shoulder. "Why so glum chum? Pretty soon we'll have B's head on a platter and everything will be the way it was before."

Vanessa M. Abrams Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:16 am

Vanessa looked at Bri, "I think Nate just politely asked me to marry him."

Brianna Caulfield Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:19 am

Her jaw dropped for a moment before she snickered; she couldn't help it. "At least your guy has more manners about it than mine did," she suggested quietly. "And your response was?"

Nathaniel Archibald Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:20 am

He leaned into his cousin's arm for a moment before straightening. "Just worried about how all this is going to turn out," he said with a shake of his. "I'm sure it'll all be fine."

Vanessa M. Abrams Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:22 am

"The limo will be here soon?" Vanessa winced, "I panicked! I didn't know what to do or say. He kind of caught me off guard. I thought he was going to ask me if we were going to get pizza or something after this."

**Haley Reagan Archibald** Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:26 am

Haley smiled at him. She could tell that something else was bothering him, but she didn't want to push the matter. "It'll all be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end. Mom used to say that to me all the time."

Brianna Caulfield Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:29 am

"Oh my god, you didn't..."

Vanessa M. Abrams Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:30 am

"What was I supposed to do??" Vanessa practically shrieked. "He caught me off guard!"

Nathaniel Archibald Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:31 am

He put on a smile that wasn't completely forced. "Smart lady," he said as he had a million times before. "Come on, we better stick with the group."

Jackson Torry Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:34 am

"Could someone come and save me from this psychopath," Jack said in exasperation and mild loathing as he looked at Chuck.

Charles Bartholomew Bass Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:35 am

Chuck looked over at Jack in disgust then said, "Could someone come and save me from this psychopath?"

Nathaniel Archibald Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:39 am

With a tilt of his head, he looked at his friend and his cousin's date. "Did the two of you just... At the same time?"

Brianna Caulfield Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:40 am

"Holy crap," she said, nearly doubling over laughing. "They did!"

**Haley Reagan Archibald** Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:40 am

Haley gave Nate a smile then said, "It'll be fine. You'll see. Now, I have to go stop Death-com 5. Excuse me." She walked over to Jack and grinned, "Who's the damsel in distress now?

Jackson Torry Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:45 am

He put his hands up. "Hey, I can only handle one psycho-killer a night."

Brianna Caulfield Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:46 am

Heading over, she gave Chuck a small shove. "He's not a psychopath and I didn't think you were the type to need saving," she pointed out with a teasing grin.
