Bennie was nervous. She had only ever done theater and what were they thinking in not only casting her but as the lead? Would she measure up? To make herself feel better, she stopped by Melinda's coffee shop at Sweet Nothings and got herself a mocha with two extra shots of espresso - Melinda gave it to her on the house to wish her luck on her face day. She shoved extra coins in the tip jar to make up for it. She then went to the Ministry for her Portkey to Scotland, a full half hour early. She wasn't sure if she'd even be allowed into the building this early, but was grateful when she arrived to be welcomed into the waiting room in the front lounge at the first floor of the building. She sat and tapped her foot with nerves, sipping at her paper coffee cup as she did.

Mischief sparkled in her eyes as she met his gaze, nodding her head. "I maybe flirted with him to see what would happen. He got my name wrong," she said, nose scrunching up as she remembered being called Mackenzie. It happened often, it would keep happening, and she'd keep making that face. Why did people always assume there was more to a name?

"He did let me know I was being very inappropriate," she said the last with a smirk, her heart racing as if she had said something to actually flirt with Wes. She was definitely too.. Something for that to happen. They were supposed to be sitting down for this reading soon, weren't they?

Wes chuckled warmly when she explained what she'd done to her old professor. "Well, he deserved what he got then, didn't he?" He couldn't imagine being a teacher--how tedious life would be!--though he had to think he would be terrible at it because if a gorgeous, legal, ex-student of his flirted with him, he probably wouldn't tell them they were being inappropriate.

Yeah, he definitely wouldn't last long as a professor. Good thing he was more obsessed with the arts.

"You want to smoke a blunt with me when we're done here?" he offered, certain she'd be down for it.

She gave him a cheeky smile at his question, glad he seemed to agree with her as well. She had rather enjoyed being so bold, she wondered if she might get the itch to be bold again soon.

Then the opportunity seemed to present itself, Wes wanted her to smoke with her when they were done? Kenzie's head bobbed quickly in a nod, biting her lower lip for just a second. "Only if you promise to tug at my hair again," came out in a rush, her cheeks just a touch flushed. She was turning over a new leaf, she was an actress, maybe she could be bold.

Ducking his head and bringing his lips near her ear, he murmured, "I'll do more than tug it." His voice was thick with promise, and his fingers did give her curls another tug. He couldn't deny that he would enjoy getting her naked again, though with her, he realized it was less about the sex and more about the camaraderie of having someone to smoke and laugh with. That didn't mean he wouldn't sleep with her again, as he was generally a very sexual person, but he was almost surprised how much he wanted to simply hang out with her again.

His words gave her goosebumps, but her boldness had been rewarded. That last tug he gave her hair made her let out a soft gasp, swallowing the lump that was suddenly in her throat.

The nerves won out, and she took a step back, motioning towards the seats. "Do you know where your seat is?" she asked, hoping then that her seat was near his. While it was going to be nerve wracking to have him there, it was comforting to have a familiar face in the crowd.

"I believe we're across the table from one another," he answered, straightening his back and releasing her hair. He glanced around, noticing that it seemed everyone was present and getting to their seats. "Shall we do the read?" he suggested, his hand pressing gently against her lower back to guide her to her chair before going around the table to his. The table was wide enough that he wouldn't be able to nudge her foot with his, but he could catch her eye if he were so inclined.

As it was, Wes was serious about this new venture, and it showed in the way he read his character, Healer Logan Shepherd.
