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

[Mr.Aznable]

She smiled up at him. “I hope you do too, Nash..”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He smiled and nodded, "I'll see you tomorrow.."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“I’ll see you tomorrow..~” she said, lingering at the door a little longer before heading in.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He stood there after she shut the door, his tail wagging hard, before heading off back to Delano.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He had a shot. He finally had his shot.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He did a quiet fist pump in the elevator, "I can't believe it."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She laid down and smiled, things were finally turning around.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

The next day, Nash was wandering around the convention floor, talking to people who stopped him.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She tried to find him, her heart skipping a bit. Why was she so excited to see him?

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She could spot him easily, he was so much taller than he used to be. He was talking to other goers, smiling and laughing.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She made over to his crowd, standing in the back just to hear him speak. She waited for her opportunity to speak.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He was talking about different ways to keep track of marketing teams and how he maintained growth in the company without losing sight of the company's brand goals. He spoke with such confidence, which was starkly compared to how he was in highschool.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

What had happened? What happened to the scared little nerd she barely used to know? It didn’t matter, he was still so kind, so genuine.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

The once timid pup who clammed up around strangers now spoke firmly and eloquently to people he would probably never see again in his life. It was amazing. And somehow charming.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She had to pause, was she starting to catch feelings? No. Couldn’t be thatx

 

[PoisonousIvee]

When he finished, everyone applauded him, some going to shake his hand, before the crowd dispersed.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She moved closer. “You’re really great with people..”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He perked and looked over, smiling wide, "Ah, not really, just got better at talking."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“Still, you don’y have to show off to get s crowd..” she said, making a lighthearted jab at her own outfit.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"You don't have to show off, either. You're naturally beguiling.." He told her gently.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She smiled. “Flatterer..~”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He smiled softly, "So just waltzing around?"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“Making my rounds like usual..” she said, smiling.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He nodded, "Keeping everyone in line, I understand."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She nudged him playfully. “No, goof, trying to make connections..~”
