Movin' In

"Thanks for helping me get this moved in." Rachel said, setting down some boxes.

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Wed Aug 29, 2012 7:34 pm

"No problem," Ryan said with a grin, setting the boxes down next to her bed with a quiet grunt. "Wouldn't be gentlemanly to make you carry this all yourself, now, would it?"

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Wed Aug 29, 2012 10:13 pm

"I guess not." Rachel said, smiling at him.

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Wed Aug 29, 2012 10:33 pm

"And see, now I'm in a... kind of awkward position. Because that didn't take nearly as long as I was going to need to work up the nerve to ask you if you wanted to go into town to get a drink," he said with a smirk.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Wed Aug 29, 2012 11:43 pm

"Um....yeah, sure." Rachel said, a bit surprised, and unsure how to answer "that would be great." Is this a date? No, no calm down. Not a date. This is just a drink. Just a drunk, calm down.

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Wed Aug 29, 2012 11:47 pm

Hm. Doesn't sound too enthusiastic, but that's okay. We can work on that. "Awesome. There's a nice place in town that has no problem taking our money from us. Just... hm. Do you like motorcycles? It's fine if you don't, I can call us a cab or something."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 12:11 am

See, he's just being friendly. Rachel told herself sternly If this was a date, or he wanted into my pants, he'd ask to fly. "I've never ridden on one, but it sounds cool." Rachel said "I'm always up for trying new things."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 12:22 am

"Awesome," Ryan said with a smile. "So did you want to get some unpacking done and head in there for dinner? Or are you in no hurry to work through the boxes?"

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 12:37 am

"I should probably get some shit unpacked." Rachel said "But I'm not trying to get rid of you. You can chill out here while I unpack, if you want."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 12:47 am

"Mmmm... well, I wouldn't mind sticking around for a little bit. I don't want to slow you down too much, after all."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 12:49 am

"Nah, have a seat on the bed." Rachel said "We can talk while I work."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 12:58 am

"All right, I'll try not to get feathers all over," Ryan said with a chuckle as he sat down.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 1:14 am

"Hey, if you'd rather sit on the floor...." Rachel said "but seriously, don't worry about it."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 1:44 am

"Nah. Can't say I ever pick the floor over the bed," Ryan teased.

"So... what are you here for?" he asked, watching her as she unpacked.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 3:46 am

"2 years. If I don't get time off for good behavior." Rachel teased.

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 3:54 am

"Just remember to stab someone in the shower your first day, unless you want to be someone's bitch. You ought to make it all right then," Ryan joked back.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 3:59 am

"Are you volunteering to get stabbed?" Rachel said, blushing a bit as she realized what she said.

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 4:00 am

"Well, if you need the opportunity, I could arrange to be around at shower time," he teased, winking.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 8:46 am

"And once again, you step in to save the day." Rachel replied.

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 4:03 pm

"Selflessly thinking of others, that's me!"

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 10:05 pm

"I thought that 'Just doing my job, ma'am' was the patented superhero response."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 10:31 pm

"Captain America has it trademarked, and he won't let me in on it yet," Ryan explained seriously with a shrug.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 11:06 pm

"Awww, that doesn't seem fair" Rachel said.

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 11:12 pm

"Yeah, but tell him that it's not fair and you just get a lecture on how he's been saving the world since your grandfather was a kid, and what's with kids these days and their entitlement, why in his day... blah blah," Ryan said with a grin.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 11:18 pm

Rachel giggled "That sounds about right"

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Aug 30, 2012 11:23 pm

Ryan chuckled at that. "Nah... Cap's a cool guy. Just reeeeally straight-edge."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 12:20 am

"Just a little bit, yeah." Rachel said "I'm glad you decided not to totally try to be like him...um...that sounded better in my head."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 12:22 am

Ryan smirked. "Why? What did you mean in your head when you said it?" he teased, having a feeling he knew and not expecting her to answer.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 10:03 am

"Never mind." Rachel said "I don't think there isn't a way to say it that isn't vaguely insulting."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 10:08 am

"Well, I won't force it, but it's probably nothing I haven't heard before," Ryan chuckled.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 10:15 am

"Maybe not, but I'm trying to get off on the right foot with you."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 10:20 am

"You do know that just about half of the stuff going around about me isn't true, right?" Ryan chuckled.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 10:23 am

"Yeah, but now I have to figure out which half."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 10:32 am

"It's okay, I promise not to get offended while you're on the learning curve," he teased.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 12:28 pm

"Thank you, you're very generous." Rachel said dryly

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 6:13 pm

"Oh, I know, just another way that I'm awesome like that," he joked.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 7:10 pm

"Lets get going, so you can show how awesome you are."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 7:22 pm

Ryan grinned, standing up. "Can you give me a half hour or so to clean up and get ready to drive?"

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 9:13 pm

"Sure can." Rachel said "I'll be hitting the shower myself." Don'tmakeajokeaboutsavingwaterdon'tmakeajokeaboutsavingwater

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 9:21 pm

Don't ask if she needs someone to wash her back...

"Want to just give me a call when you're ready?" he asked, forcing innocence.
