Where Angels Fear To Tread (PoisonousIvee/Mr.Aznable)

[PoisonousIvee]

She hesitated before taking it, "Should anything come up, I will..." She told him gently.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"Thank you very much." He said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

When he went out for his smoke, he spotted a phone box not far from him. Maybe he could give Elaine a ring, kill time while Dean finished the interview. She was probably getting ready to head to the club soon.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He moved over and pulled out his pocket book, dropped a nickel into the slot, and dialed Elaine.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

It rung a couple times before he heard the click of the phone answering.
"This is Elaine Carmine, to whom am I speaking with?" She sounded so professional, so polite. How cute.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He smiled a bit. "Hey, Elaine, it's detec- er. It's Cliff."

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"Oh, why hello, handsome~" She purred, "You've caught me just in time, I was just getting ready for my day~ and how is my favorite detective today~?"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"Oh, another headache of a case today.. how's my favorite musical sensation?" He asked.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She hummed playfully, "Dreadfully alone, didn't have my usual bedroom guest with me when I woke up this morning~"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"Oh, I know, a real kicker.." he said teasingly.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"He'll have to make it up to me should he show his face later~" She said, "I am fond of roses~"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"Oh, I figure you are." He said, grinning.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She laughed softly, "What case is it this time~? Jilted lover~?"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"We don't quite know yet, we're figuring it out." He said, idly looking over his notes.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She hummed, "Well, whatever it is, I'm confident in Boston's Finest~"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"Aw thanks, doll. Makes the job worthwhile." He said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"I do what I can to show my support~" She replied, "Will I expect to see you tonight~? With the roses~?" The last part was teasing, like she was known to do.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"With the roses, promise." He said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She laughed softly, "Wonderful, I have a new dress to wear for you tonight~"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"Oh yeah?" He asked, now paying full attention.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"Mhm~" There was that purr again, "You'll like it~ I don't want to spoil the surprise, though~"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"Just enough to get me hooked, huh?" He asked, grinning

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"Just enough~ you'll be happy to know that there is a rather scandalous slit up the side~"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He covered a noise. "Well, looks like I'd better bring roses."

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"I would expect no less from you, detective~"
"Cliff!" Dean was at the door, hands in his jacket pockets digging for his smokes, "Time to hit the road, son!"
