I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire (PoisonousIvee/Mr.Aznable)

[Mr.Aznable]

She smiled and nodded. They continued chatting for a while, reminiscing about highschool before they parted and continued with their work.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

Well, thank God he didn't ruin anything. He would really hate himself if he could never talk to her again.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

They met up at Libertine again, now laughing over drinks. A small glimmer of hope for him, he noticed she wasn’t wearing a ring. “Hey, Nash um.. I wanted to talk to you about something..”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

His shifted to sit on his tail to keep it from wagging, giving her his full attention, "What's up?"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“About my uh.. marriage.. I’m..” she took a breath and a drink. “I’m.. separated from my husband.. the divorce finalized about six months ago..”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He could feel his tail struggle under him, his ears perking forward.
"Oh. Shit, Liza, I'm sorry. Is that why you were down last night?"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“Yeah, I didn’t want to bring down the mood..” she said with a small laugh.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"Oh no, you could never!" He said, "I'm sorry to have brought it up!"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“It’s alright..” she said with a smile. “What about you? Look at you, probably gotta fend ladies off..”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"Ah, I do have to wave a stick at them sometimes...but I'm still single." He replied.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“Really..? Forgive me for saying, but I find that hard to believe, good looking guy like you..” she said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He laughed bashfully, "Believe it...no girlfriend or boyfriend to speak of.."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She smiled a bit to herself. “Well, you’ll find someone..”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"I hope so..." He replied, a soft yearning in his tone.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She looked up at him at hearing the tone. Their eyes locked and her face flushed a bit.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He looked away, giving a nervous laugh, "Anyway, what are you getting this time?"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“U-Um.. I hear they have a good paloma, I might try to do that..”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"This Cool Lilac looks good, I might give that a go!" He smiled, "And we can share their shark-coochie board~ if you're interested~"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She smiled. “I would like that..~”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He smiled and placed the order when their waiter came by, asking for some more water as well.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She smiled and sipped her drink, far more relaxed now.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"So...any kids...?" He asked, trying to find something to talk about that wouldn't upset her too much.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“No, no kids..” she said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"Is that good...?" He asked, almost anxious.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“Well, I do want kids eventually..” she said.
