Getting Ready for Gavin

[StormHawk]

Running up the stairs, Gavin shifted his jacket for the thousandth time. He hated putting his wings under his clothes, it was a real pain in the ass to have them tucked in like this, especially when he's been so used to letting them free. He'd live with it for a night since Heather asked him to and hey, he had nothing against some one on one time with a pretty girl. He even wore the good cologne his ex got him for his birthday, but he wasn't going to tell Heather that. Girls always got weird if a guy mentioned any chick they used to date, and he learned that lesson the hard way.

"Hey Heather! Bobby's waiting for us out front, and I'm thinking we'll grab some chow first before the-" Gavin stopped mid shout when he walked past Kevin and through the open door. His eyes were wide as saucers as he looked at a very, well very dressed up and... hot Heather. She had always been pretty, that was no secret, but right then she looked damn hot. "Uh... wow," he said dumbly still looking at her. "You look... damn." He stared for a minute longer and then shook himself out of it. "You look great! You um, ready to go?" Gavin grinned at her and then looked around at all the others in the room.

"Sup guys? Did I interrupt some 'girly time'?" The last part he said using a high and mocking voice. He looked at the clock and cringed when he saw the time, feeling a little bad now. "Sorry I'm late, it's not easy to hide fourteen foot wings under clothes," he said sheepishly with a guilty smile. "Forgive me?"

It was hard to avoid a large smile from appearing. Heather was more than happy when she saw Gavin's reaction and couldn't help but look over to Veronika and smile wider. "Food sounds good," she replied as she went to grab a light jacket. She looked in her clutch bag to make sure she had everything with her before finally heading out. "And thank you." She smiled again, her white teeth bare and sparkling with joy. The date was finally happening and she didn't need to wait with anticipation any longer.

Nodding her head towards the door, Heather bit her lip and began walking towards it. "Let's not keep Bobby waiting," she continued. "Bye guys. I'll see you later. Enjoy the marathon." She grabbed Gavin's arm and escorted him out the room. "I might forgive you if you pick a good movie and get the popcorn. I'll get the drinks and chocolate chip cookie dough bites." Wrapping her arm around Gavin's she observed his wings tucked into his jacket. She felt kind of bad about him having to hide who and what he was. But he was really nice enough to try and do this for her. Heather was more than thankful and would make sure to remind Gavin that later on.

Kevin waved as they left and flopped down onto Heather's bed. He sprawled out with his head at the foot of her bed. Pulling her pillow down to the foot of her bed and hugging it as he kicked off his shoes he fidgeted around enough to mess up the covers and find a comfy spot. Reaching over he grabbed the remote control for the almost wall sized flat screen TV and popped it on. "I thought they'd never leave." He said as he flipped to the marathon and hit the mute button. "So go on and dish, I mean what's the plan?"

He wasn't sure why he asked, chances were they wouldn't say. Paragons take care of their own was probably all he'd get out of the girls, but he didn't like not knowing something if he was already privy to a piece of the puzzle. "Oh, and I don't drink that junk. Not anymore, but when I was little it flowed like tap water and I thought if you drink it you become brainwashed into being one of the flock if you get what I mean, so I quit drinking it. But the saying 'All in the Kool Aid and don't even know the flavor', I can't believe you guys never heard that." He scrunched his lips up for a second and continued "It just means that you're talking about stuff you don't know about and butting into things that you should stay out of- like I just did again."

He caught himself and realized he was being nosey into the girls team goings on and he should probably just back off. "Sorry, don't tell me the plan. I'm done with Kool-Aid today I think. Lets just watch the show." He grabbed up the remote and un-muted the sound.
