Cirice (PoisonousIvee/Mr.Aznable)

[Mr.Aznable]

“Good. Now, go over five rosaries, and.. well, let me see.. do an act of charity as penance..” he said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She bowed her head, fingers laced together gently, "Of course, Father. Thank you."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“You are blessed, my child. The lord forgives, and have a wonderful day.” He said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She made a cross with her hand, "In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen." She said gently and stood, her hand lingering just under the window screen before she left the Confessional.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He took a deep breath and sat in the booth, simply giving everything a good long thought.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He was being tested. Surely, God was testing him. To meet a woman so interesting and beautiful after taking his vows was the ultimate trial as a changed man.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He did his best to remain resolute. It was hard.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She was stunning. Even when she came during the week after work to seek guidance or just to talk, she always took his breath away.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He had to force himself to stop, force himself to be detached.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"Father, do forgive my forwardness," Bryn approached him after service on Sunday, "I know it's inappropriate to be in the home of a woman without the presence of another man, but I would very much like to have you over for dinner."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“Dinner?” He asked. He made a noise and nodded. “I think that would be lovely.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She smiled and nodded, "Consider it a thank you for all the help you've provided me."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He nodded. “While all the help is simply a joy of the title, I will not say no.” He said with a grin.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She smiled even more, "I'll be ready for you at seven. Please, don't be late, though I wouldn't fault you for it."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He smiled and nodded as he headed back in to clean, and eventually get ready

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He had been to her house before, as she helped him with charity events and fundraisers for the church with some of the other parishioners, so he didn't really need to ask for her address. When she answered the door, she wore black high waisted shorts with a simple button up tucked into them. She smiled brightly when she registered it was him, "Oh, Father, right on time. Come in, please." She greeted and moved aside for him.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He smiled and moved inside, he was dressed in a high collared black shirt, the sleeves all the way down, with the collar done around his neck.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"I hope you like a good old fashioned pot roast." She said as she walked into the den with him. It was very old fashioned, like he was sent back in time. He always liked the aesthetic of her, it suited her well. She was a rather traditional woman.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He smiled and thanked her. “I very much do.” He said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She smiled warmly, "I'm glad. Would you like something to drink? Water? I have fresh made lemonade, I have a fine white to have with dinner that I wouldn't mind opening early if you so wished."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He smiled. “I’ll stick with water for now, thank you.”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She nodded and moved to the kitchen, getting two ice cups and filling them with water before coming back, "The roast is almost done, I promise."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He thanked her for the water and simply relaxed. “Thank you, Bryn.”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"Of course." She said as she sat across from him, "I don't mean to come off as a flirt, but you're more handsome with each encounter."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He smiled and waved his hand. “A small blessing..”
