You're better than drugs, your love is like wine...
Who: Fina, Adi and Roxy
Where: Starbucks
When: Four-thirty in the afternoon
What: Recapping the night before.

Fina was all excited. All day. Why shouldn't she be? The guy she had massive feelings for, feelings she wasn't about to admit again, not even in her own brain when she knew he wasn't around, was back in her life. He'd missed her. There had been no other girl. Serafina was on cloud ten. Nine wasn't even high enough for her. She bopped along to her iPod the moment she punched out of work and climbed into her Jeep. The music blasted as she drove though the streets, singing along.

Parking at Starbucks, she hummed along as she tossed her sunglasses on top of her head, hair moving as she bopped waiting in line to order her drink. No, she didnt need caffeine. She had the blessings of a natural high. So, moments later, armed with her iced tea lemonade, she scouted out a table by the window and three chairs, pulling out her lyric notebook and scribbling, still moving to the beat in his head.

Adelle on the other hand, might have needed a touch of caffeine. Graham had woken her up early for their date and she'd even missed Roxy on the way back in. But it had been an eventful morning, and she hadn't gotten a wink of sleep in edgewise. A drop of caffeine from something iced and sweet would be so supremely glorious that she'd want a scone or something that would hit a spot she wasn't too inclined to hit usually if it involved coffee. However, she was currently washing her face, reapplying lip gloss and trying to decide between a ponytail or leaving it down. She wanted to look feminine today, and she didn't think the high tail was helping.

A few seconds more and she pulled it out, then clipped the bow on to the left side of her hair in the back. Her bangs framed her heart-shaped face and, and the rest of her hair was a little wavy. She'd never gotten to flat-iron it in the morning because of Graham's short notice, but she was entirely pleased. Her eyeliner was okay, and she decided to wear light shade of blue eyeshadow. It wasn't like she was dressing up for Roxy. But hey, her two best friends had a nice one up on her with their colored hair. Dropping the gloss into her purse, she picked it up and stepped out.

She was wearing a rather deep blue tunic, empire waist as usual. But trying to keep up with her rather vibrant friends, she covered the top half in a denim vest and wore tights underneath to transform it into a dress. She forwent the flats that she knew they'd wear in exchange for a pair of absolutely cute cream colored wedges. Leave it to Adelle to do Starbucks big. She was even toting around her Coach bag.

She spotted Fina instantly, vibrant hair illuminated by the sun. Adelle made her way over to the counter to pick up the caramel frappuccino and delightful raspberry scone she'd chosen and made her way over.

"Hey, love." She placed her cheek next to Fina's and made a 'mwah' noise. Adelle was always calling her friends odd names. Roxy was Rox, Ox, Oxy, or PenPen and even Pen Squared. Fina was Serafi, Fifi, WiFi, Rafiki, and Red or Little Red. "So, Red, I know I'm dying to know what happened last night. But Roxy needs to show up so you don't have dish twice."

Roxy was a bit apprehensive about the coffee meet. The night at Adelle's place was great, but then that morning she felt a swift blow to her ego. Adelle might not have saw Roxy on her way out, but pink-haired girl definitely caught sight of her friend in the rear view mirror. Maybe even saw too much. Either way it made Roxy's heart sink. She even waited until Adelle went inside before turning on her car and blazing out with heavy metal blaring. Roxy wasn't sure if she should've been pissed at Adelle or upset with herself. Ugh, why was this eating away at her? Adelle was her friend and nothing more... right? She was allowed to have fun with some random guy she just met at 4:30 in the morning. That was normal.

Thankfully work put Roxy's mind at ease. Once she was off of her shift she sped her way to the Starbucks destination. Not exactly her first pick for coffee shops, but she needed caffeine and something to munch on. She was going to need to have that extra pep when they all finally sat down and talked about their lives. And then it hit Roxy that she didn't have some amazing boy to gush over. Fina was going to tell about the moron who left her and Adelle was obviously going to dish out the details on her random-as-hell date at what-the-fuck o' clock in the morning. She still couldn't decide on how she was suppose to feel with Adelle, but right then she felt somewhat betrayed.

Once she entered the Starbucks, Roxy pulled her sunglasses away from her face and rested them on top of her head. She ordered an iced mocha along with a slice of strawberry cheesecake. Yeah, she wasn't sharing either; she definitely needed it after what happened last night and this morning. "Oh my god, I am so hungry!" Roxy plopped on down at the table, letting out a massive sigh, then waved giddily to the two of them with a smile. "Hey girls! Sorry what took so long, they had me stay for an extra hour. Had like, three people in Ann Arbor break their legs all at the same time in different locations."

Fina looked up when Adi sat next to her, still smiling brilliantly. Pulling out her earbuds, she tucked them away, turning off her iPod. Glancing down, she was glad that the lyrics she'd been working on weren't too sappy, that annoying pop love stuff that usually bothered her. As happy as she was, she was still writing like herself. “Then I will be good and wait for her to get here.” It was hard to follow that, being that she was so darn happy, but she tucked her notebook and mp3 player in her messenger bag and turned to her friend.

Then, her favorite penguin (hey, she loved her more than those animated ones - that totally counted!) sat down with a delicious looking slice of cheesecake. “No worries, Mumbles. Just glad you’re here now.” She could tell by the cake that it hadn’t been the easiest of days for her friend and she felt bad, not wanting to make it worse by gushing over a guy. That never seemed to make anyone overly happy when they were in epic need of cheesecake.

Adelle on the other hand was a bit high on life at the moment and was busy picking apart her scone to notice the cake. Not as happy as Fina, but she was definitely up there. She smiled as Roxy waved, a little broader than usual. Oh, God, was she really going to do that now? She quickly picked up her frappuccino and took a delightful sip. Now that was delicious. She got her eyes to stop focusing on Roxy for a second and placed them on Fina.

"So glad you're here now Rox. Fina's scribbling away and not dressed down in a hoodie so I'm assuming she had a very wonderful night with somebody the two of us kinda wish she hadn't." That smile wasn't going away anytime soon. The siren dug her fingers into the scone, breaking off a piece. She giggled when she looked down to eat it. One of her fingers was coated in a bit of raspberry filling. "Three people with broken legs at the same time? Did the world's best driver get them in safely?"

Her mouth was full of cheesecake when Adelle spoke up. Mumbling with her mouth full, Roxy tried her best to chew faster. Once she swallowed down her massive bite of food Roxy rolled her eyes and sighed. "I swear, if I wasn't a paramedic driving an ambulance, I totally would have been arrested for how damn fast I was going!" She chuckled a bit, washing down her food with her beverage. "Was a bit nerve wracking, but that's how I roll, so it's all good."

Roxy fished through her shoulderbag for an elastic, swiftly running her fingers through her hair and pulling it back into a ponytail. Ah, much better! She smiled softly while making sure there were no loose strands of hair falling out. "And you SO know you have to tell us what went on last night, Fi. You gave me a heart attack with you text message! Hopefully he didn't do anything stupid or else I'm going to dig out my field hockey stick and hunt him down." Before taking another bite of her food, she looked on over to Adelle and noticed some flyaways poking out. Without a second thought she reached down into her bag, pulled out some serum, and gently applied it to the siren's hair, smoothing out the few pieces sticking out.

Fina laughed. "Lucky you were. I'm sure everyone you drive might fear for their lives a little while driving, but they also appreciate getting to the hospital as fast as possible." She knew her friend has a need for speed; it was something she understood completely. It was one of the things that had made the two girls friends to begin with.

She tucked her legs up and looked at her friends, smiling. "He's staying. For a while. I didn't mean to freak you out, I swear. I was completely wigging at the bar. I mean, he had no idea where I was and all of a sudden, he's at my bar, singing this song and I'm completely in shock." But she was smiling now, it was obvious that everything worked out. "He's gonna be staying with me for a while. And I'm happy. Like really happy cause we're gonna try and make this whole thing work, you know?"

When Roxy made her hair behave, she found herself blushing hard, as a result of the touch. She looked down into her scone, picking it apart into bite size chunks she could pop into her mouth. God, she was picking at it like she were in bird form. She let out a little sigh as the color faded from her cheeks. She missed it, but she certainly loved being able to sing to men, to Graham.

"Finaaaaa." Adelle whined, showing her disregard for Rigby. He'd broken her heart, and as much as she was willing to forgive, forget, fellate, Adelle didn't want to see her heart broken again when he decided to up and leave. However, it was highly hypocritical, seeing as Graham was now in her life. "If he does something, anything, he's sung off a cliff. He's lucky that he's cute and that you're so into him."

"He's staying for a while?" Roxy turned her head at Fina's words. "That's a change for him, isn't it? He like, booked it out of Cali back when you two were really hitting it off." Tilting her head to the side, she gave Fina a stern look. "He better not do that again, or I'm racing after his sorry ass."

She finished fixing Adelle's hair, chucking the serum back into her back, then returned to her food and drink. Once she took a massive bite out of the cheesecake and chewed it a bit, she continued with her mouth partially full. "So you found him at a bar? Was he like, stalking you or something? Or just totally random?" Roxy finally swallowed her food down, speaking more clearly. "Oh god, this is just so weird. I had no idea that he'd be coming back. I mean, we were just talking about him the other day!"

"He won't. Not this time." They still had a lot to talk about, she and Rigby, but she knew it would turn out better this time. There was no denying how they felt about each other. He was hers and she was his. Time apart hadn't changed that, no matter how hard she and her friends tried to help her forget, move on. "I promise, you guys. This time it's different." Fina knew she would have to defend him and she loved her friends for it. She was too busy thinking about that to noticed what passed between her friends.

"I know! It's completely insane! I went to the bar to try out the new song and there he was with his guitar on stage when I walked in. I almost dropped dead, I swear!" Now was the part she was looking forward to. Telling the good stuff. "He came right up to me as soon as he saw me. And we talked a bit. I played. We talked some more and then I suggested we go back to my place so we could really talk, you know?" She blushed a little. "Suppose I probably shouldn't have kissed him outside the bar before we got to talking, but I missed him so much. And really, we did actually talk when we got back to my apartment." It would have been clear to a blind man that she was happy.

Adelle was popping scone bits like an addict by the time Fina mentioned kissing Rigby outside of the bar. Anybody that knows a scone knows that they're drier than a muffin, and anybody knows Adelle knows that she inhales food, resulting in a rather dramatic game of "Chubby Bunny" trying to react to what Fina had said. "Oo kiss'd 'im otside da bar?! Bot 'e cud 'ave ben pwaying with you. O em gee, Finah."

Swallowing, and clearing her mouth, Adelle repeated. "You kissed him outside the bar!? But he could've been playing with you. Oh. Em. Gee. Fina! You know I'm going to torture you about this for days. Days! Now I'm expected to believe that all you did was talk. I don't have to be a psychic to know that you two played tonsil hockey until you fell asleep, girl."

She looked at Roxy and smiled, then over her shoulder as if Rigby were going to appear. "Was it awesome?"

You are one to talk, Adi.

Roxy smiled back to Adelle, flushing softly at her words. While the two had their own excitement the other night, she couldn't but remember what she saw that morning. Roxy didn't want to say it, but it definitely stung. For now she was going to keep her pink lips sealed and her mouth full of cheesecake. It was almost halfway gone when Adelle mentioned tonsil hockey being awesome.

"Thankfully tonsil hockey isn't as complicated as field hockey, but totally fun either way." Her fingers patted at the corners of her lips, making sure no crumbs were left behind. "So you going to kiss and tell some more, Fi? We need details!" She paused for a second, glancing to Adelle then back. "Or at least I do!"

She blushed like crazy, laughing at her friends. One minute they're ready to kill the guy and the next they want all the juicy details. Fina shook her head and smiled at them, unable to help it. "We talked. I had one of my uber long rambles about how I felt when he left, how I tried to go out with the guys you were fixing me up with, but none of them were him." She sighed a little and blushed. "I love him too much to do that." Oh, god, she'd said it out loud.

Fina buried her face in her hands and let out a little laugh. "I can't hide that. And he knows it too, even though I didn't say the words to him." They wanted details. "There was a lot of making out after the talking. On the couch, in my bed. God, I forgot how damn good he was at that. Swear it was only making out, but he did stay with me. And when I woke up and thought he was gone, he was making me breakfast! How sweet is that?" She was clearly happy and she knew he was going to stay as long as he could. They still hadn't officially defined what they were to each other yet, but that would come. It would.

Adelle kind of felt like she hadn't been paying attention, as her eyes left the frappucino she realized that it was almost all gone. Oops. Oh well, her friends knew that she was a voracious little thing, and she finished off the scone before taking a long look at Roxy's cheesecake as Fina spoke. There was no way she'd share that. Her mouth pulled to the side in a pout and that's when Fina mentioned love.

"Love." The little siren murmured the word, as if it were something the redhead had placed on the table in front of the three. "Aren't those lyrics to a song? On the couch, on the floor? In the kitchen... something like that. But who cares about that? This is awesome. God, I'm so happy for you right now. The only thing that could make this better, is if Roxy shared her cheesecake."

"I'm always surprised you don't pick up his accent thing. You're always in so much contact with his mouth."

At the mention of her cheesecake being shared, Roxy shot Adelle a death stare while pulling her plate as far away from her as possible. "Uh, yeah, no." The bitchy tone in her voice surfaced for a second, only to get the point across that the cheesecake was off limits to everyone at the table, minus Roxy, of course. Speaking of which, she stabbed her slice and shoved a big chunk in her mouth, munching contently away in front of her two friends. Mine!

"And as happy as I am that you're happy, Fi, I'm still going to worry. This Riggy guy left you without any notice and he could do it again." Wait, was that his name? Oh, whatever. "I think you need to chain him to your house so he doesn't book it out here, you know? Hell, I got some duct tape if you want to use that. Probably in my bag somewhere." Poor Roxy couldn't help but worry about Fina. It was great that she was on cloud nine, or twenty at this point, but there was going to be hell to pay if someone broke her friend's heart. Again.

Fina didn't need cheesecake. She was happy enough without it. Her arms wrapped themselves around her legs as she kept them against her chest, resting her chin on her knee. "I know you're worried, Rox and I appreciate it. Something is different this time, though." She didn't know what it was, but she could feel it and she didn't want it to go away.

There was a light laugh at her friends' comments. "I slip into the accent, Adi, don't doubt that. Called him darlin' last night," she said with a giggle. "As for the duct tape, I'll keep that in mind. Don't need it just yet, though." Leaning over, she touched Roxy's arm. "I know he doesn't wanna hurt me this time. Don't think he realized how attached we'd been until he left and we both had to deal with being without one another."

"Aw." Adelle made the sound before she even realized what she was doing. Wasn't that awesome? It was like some kind of movie where people who cared about you actually came back or found you or magically appeared in your bar. She liked that if the world had decided to make it happen, that it happened to Fina. She couldn't think of any person more deserving.

"Why'd he leave again? Are there like telltale signs when he's going to decide to disappear? We should put like, a laser alarm by your door and it texts me'n Roxy that he's going somewhere." Even if Rigby swore to God, or he signed a legal, binding contract, there would always be this suspicion clouding her mind about him. At least until he showed Adelle personally that he meant it. At the very least, he was back in Fina's life. That was awesome.

"Dude, screw the alarms, I'm just going to camp out by your place and be ready to deck him if he remotely thinks of leaving you." Roxy chuckled a bit, stuffing her face with some more cheesecake. Oh god, this was definitely worth the extra pounds. She quickly patted Fina's hand and smiled reassuringly. "But no, seriously girl? I'm totally glad you're happy. You deserve it big time. Though if he does ANYTHING stupid, you call us, ok? I'm used to being up at crazy hours of the night, so feel free to wake me up. Hell, depending how out of it I am I might pick you up some caffeine while I'm doing the same for myself."

That said, Roxy leaned back more into her seat, grabbing her iced mocha and took a massive sip from it. While she sat there she wondered if Adelle was going to dish out any details about her random disappearance that morning. Maybe it was best not to hear the details, but Roxy couldn't help but wonder, even if it would potentially tear her up inside.

It was clear she was beyond happy, both for Rigby being back in he life and her friends for sticking by her. Fina was so grateful to have people in her life that cared about her. Maybe she needed to do something where they could all hang out, so that they understood better that he wasn't going to do anything to hurt her. Not again. "I promise, if anything should happen, I will let you guys know, okay? But this time is different. I know it."

Fina relaxed and looked at her two closest friends. "Enough about me and my love life, which has suddenly decided to reassert itself. What's going on with you two?" she asked, smiling at them.

Adelle's eyes roamed the table for something, anything. She was a bit embarrassed by what she'd done that morning, how bad it potentially sounded to some. There was a second between her playing with the crumbs on her napkin and looking at the little bit of drink she had left. "Okay. Roxy knows about this, but I saw this guy this morning."

She couldn't control the smile. It spread until her teeth were showing. "But not like, this morning. It was four in the morning. He calls, invites me out because he really wanted to chill, so we drive up to this hill in Ann Arbor to watch the sunrise." Her voice dropped a few octaves, "And he brought out some weed, so we ended up doing that. Some other stuff too."

Roxy almost spit out her drink upon hearing Adelle's words. She was rather laid-back when it came to marijuana, especially if it was for medicinal use. Hell, she actually was for it being legalized specifically for that. But this was different. The psychotic, fire-crazed man from the other day had whisked Adelle away to go smoke it up somewhere. Oh, and she didn't even want to know what the "other stuff" entailed, though she could guess what they did after Adelle's "I want sex!" exclamation and seeing the man pin her against his car and shove his tongue halfway down her throat.

UGH!

"Oh god, Adi..." Roxy sighed while rubbing her forehead. "This cracker guy is nothing but trouble, I swear." She shook her head, trying her best not to suddenly book it out to her car, peel on out, and track down this psycho. Oh, she had police friends, too, she would definitely find him, even if he was homeless.

Fina blinked at her friend. "Wait, what?" She tried to listen for a moment, hearing about this guy and tries to process. So she got a booty call for drugs and god knows what else. It was an understatement to say she was concerned, especially given Roxy's reaction. Her penguin friend was always a good judge of people. But this didn't make sense. Not for Adelle.

"Adi, sweetie, I dunno that this guy sounds like he's got the best of intentions, as archaic as that might sounds." Fina was worried. This guy was trouble with a capital T. There was something that was sparking warnings in her head and she didn't want anything to happen to the young siren. She was one of her closest friends. "Where did you met him?" Maybe he wasn't so bad but still, she wasn't going to assume positive intent on this one.

"We didn't do that." She hoped the stern look she gave Roxy would dissuade her from believing that she'd done something that she'd explicitly given her word that she wouldn't. Then she looked at Fina, who also wasn't very pleased. "I met him in the park the other day. He was playing a guitar, and it made me want to dance."

"We had lunch. Despite what Roxy thinks about it, I had fun and there's something about him that makes me want to do things. Dance, sing... dance." So she wasn't anybody's favorite right now. Maybe they were right about it. After that morning, she was pretty clear about what Graham wanted from her. "He's just weird. He's.. what's that word. Eccentric. I don't even know if I'll see him again."

"Eccentric?" Roxy shot a confused look to Adelle. "Adi, he set your chopsticks on fire. F-I-R-E. That's usually grounds for insanity somewhere, or at least that all the screws aren't tightly wound in place in his head." She suddenly placed her forehead on the table and groaned loudly before coming back up. Calm down, Roxy, no need to be tweaking out over this. It's her life, not yours. "But I guess if you had a good time then I guess that's all that matters...? Oh god, I don't know!" She whipped her head over to Fina, hoping the girl could talk some sense in Adelle. But wait, she was a fire elemental. Maybe the whole chopsticks on fire bit only intrigued her. Crap. "What do you think, Fi?"

So he was an elemental. Fina couldn't really pass that much judgement on him. But still. There was something off, especially the way Roxy was reacting. Something was going on and she had no idea what it was. So she kept herself silent and watched, waiting to see what was going on, if she could figure it out. And she was having a hard time.

And then Roxy turned to her for her opinion. Oh dear. "Um, well, I don't know him well enough and you seem to have more information on this guy than I do. I just... there is something about him I'm not sure about. Something off." She winced. "Sorry, Adi. Maybe I have to meet him?"

Adelle smoothed her hair and sighed. They weren't exactly against her, well, Fina wasn't against her. But she could almost see the rage seething behind Roxy's eyes, and she knew that it wasn't exactly unwarranted. She finished off her drink as the redhead spoke, the loud sound of the straw pulling up the last bits of drink rather distracting. "Maybe."

"But you guys are probably right. There probably is a reason to stay away from him, but he just draws me in." The smallest of the three girls pulled the straw from the plastic cup to lick it, but hesitated, holding it in the air while it dripped down into empty cup. "Tell you what. The next time he calls I'll let him know I'll need time to think and run it through the two of you. I don't want you guys to worry."

Her eyes couldn't help but settle on Roxy.

"Dude, I was passed out on your couch when you left! You could've woken me up then and asked. It's not like I haven't been waken up at the crack of dawn with work and all." Roxy sighed heavily, trying her best to calm down, but the bitter bitch in her was getting the best of her emotions. And the way Adelle looked at her, oh god, it was hard not to blush. Roxy averted her gaze and finished off her cheesecake before continuing. "I know we like, talked about this last night, and I just want you to be happy, but-"

Why the fuck do you kiss me then go off screwing around with this douchebag?! Holy crap, he was literally dry humping you against his car this morning! Am I not good enough for you?!

"I don't know, I just have a bad feeling about it." Roxy raised her brows, shrugging her shoulders as well. "Maybe I'm just overreacting, like how I did with Riggy." Oh, she was never going to get his name right. "I just want someone good for you, that's all." She looked back to Adelle, the look in her eyes showing that she calmed down quite a bit, but her heart was still beating faster. Damnit, why couldn't she like boys, too?

Okay, something was definitely going on that she wasn't aware of. "Wait, you went on this date and Rox was at your place?" That wasn't cool. You didn't just ditch a guest, no matter how close you were, for a date. A botty call no less. Fina was really starting to think this Graham guy wasn't as super as Adi seemed to hope he was. She made a face, watching her two friends. Clearly, she was more out of the loop.

"Rigby, Rox, Rigby. And maybe you are but how do we know he's got your best intentions at heart? He comes by at like the butt crack of dawn and just expects you to come out with him?" Something about that sounded wrong, off. She wasn't sure what, but there was something that was seriously bugging her. "I love you, Adi, I swear and I want you to be happy, but for reals? This does not sound kosher."

Or maybe she wouldn't see him at all. Or maybe-- ugh. She let the straw fall back into the cup and sat there with her eyes closed for a moment. She never did much thinking and she could look over the past week and see just how much trouble it had caused for her. Her voice didn't work right, she couldn't shift, she had stitches in her back.

"He doesn't have a phone and he's living out of his car." She didn't necessarily want to open her mouth anymore, but she wanted to be straight with her friends. When she actually said it, she realized how it sounded.

"I'm sorry. I'm-- I just need to slow down with everything." Like Roxy had said. "I'm glad you're both here in Scarlet Oak."

Roxy closed her eyes, taking in a deep breath. No more flipping out over something that was beyond her control. This was Adelle's life, not hers. If she really wanted to be hanging out with some lowlife, then so be it. Roxy wasn't going to nag her friend like a mother anymore. Besides, she was pretty sure the only reason she was tweaking out over the whole thing was because of how forward her siren friend was the night before. Part of Roxy wanted something to work out between her and Adelle, but not if there was someone else involved. At this point she was never going to find a loving girlfriend. Sigh....

"I'm glad all of us are here. It's like college all over again." Roxy opened her brown eyes, smiling softly once she more calmed down. "And don't worry, Adi, we're here for you. I swear if this guy breaks your heart, I'm coming after him." She looked back to Fina. "Some goes to your mister man, too, Fi!" Then a thought suddenly flooded into her mind. Both of her friends were hanging around nomadic, slightly crazy men. Maybe Rigby wasn't as crazy as Graham, but it was close enough. Dear god, I hope they're not like, best friends or something.

Living out of his car? Okay, she really couldn't make a comment on that one. Not when Rigby lived out of his car too. Fina said nothing about it, knowing she really couldn't berate her friend for liking a guy who didn't have a permanent home. Leaning over, she rubbed her Adelle's arm for a moment. This whole thing went from her being really happy to confused and concerned. Something was going on and she thought it might be more than just Adi ditching Roxy in her apartment that morning.

It felt good that they were all together. Fina knew Rigby wouldn't hurt her again, not like before. "We're together again, a force to be reckoned with. No one will mess with us." She smiled and hoped that was true, that nothing would come between them or hurt them in anyway. Only time would tell.

Fina's words brought a big smile to her face. It was true, they were going to be an awesome power trio again like Charlie's Angels. Fina could be Lucy Liu, Roxy would be Cameron, and Adelle-- oh great. The bubbly one that got in all kinds of trouble. But what Roxy said hit her hard, made her blink, made the smile dim a bit. "I don't think he has my heart."

Fluttering her eyes and smiling at Roxy was delightful mistake that she almost regretted as soon as she'd done it. God, was Fina picking up on this? Time for a distraction! She placed her hand on the redhead's, looking into her eyes. The hands were in the middle of the table, and she looked at Roxy, smiling wide. "Like Charlie's Angels. Like the freakin' A-Team. All for one, and one for all. You in Rox?"

"If we're the A-Team, I claim dibs on Faceman so I can drive all those bad ass vehicles." She giggled at the thought. "Maybe one of your manly mans can be Mr. T's character, seeing we're short one." That said she placed her hand on top of the other girls', looking to both of them with a confident smile. "I'm totally in, though, you kidding me? You guys know I'm there for the both you first and foremost." There needed to be a female version of bros before hos. Chicks before dicks? Who knew.

"We totally need to make this a weekly or bi-weekly thing. I miss you guys too much." It really was like college all over again, except not in sunny California. Roxy could get over that small tidbit for the time being. Besides, the company was what was more important right then.

She laughed. This was one of the things she had missed most about school and she was so glad everyone was back together again. Fina's finger instantly went to her nose. "Totally not Mr. T, fyi. Not me." Giggling, she smiling at them. Fina still felt there was something going on between Roxy and Adelle, something that she hadn't been made aware of, so she kept her eyes on them, wondering what it was. Maybe it was this Graham guy, but she couldn't be sure. The rest of the afternoon was spent giggling, tossing napkins and straw wrappers, thoughts of guys who'd wronged them and ones who loved them pushed to the side. It was good to have friends like these.
