When they were shopping, Kimber had been pretty insistent that a black 'little-black-dress' was far too boring for Mia. Mia was glad to see Kimber getting a little more animated, and was willing to humor her crazy fashion ramblings. Mia ended up with a red 'little-black-dress' that had plenty of class and looked 'outrageous' on her. Despite his already having seen it in the store, Mia was hoping to impress Eli with the full package, after she'd done her hair and makeup.

She wasn't really dreading this as much as Eli seemed to be. Sure, the formal party thing wasn't exactly her cup of tea, but she enjoyed any excuse she had to hang out with Eli. She liked that he wasn't worried about his coworkers seeing him with a younger girl, but he wasn't overly eager to 'show her off', either. She was just his girlfriend. Almost like they were normal, or something.

The venue was nice. A fancy ballroom at a hotel, waiters in bow ties, candles on the tables. Mia declined the champagne flute that was offered to her, snagging a little hors d'oeuvre instead. "So these are the high rollers, huh? Do you work with all these people, or are they just investors and crap?" She really only knew Eli's secretary, and she didn't see her here.

	He didn't want her to leave at all, and wrapped his arms around her. He wanted her to move in with him eventually, but didn't know when - if ever - it would be a good time to ask. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She scooted closer, tilting her head down and nestling against his chest. This was really nice. She gummed at his collarbone idly, having just a little bit of excess energy before she fell asleep. Her brain was wandering. "You think Lightman's job offer will still be there in a few years? I told Ollie I'd try the college thing." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I'll make him have it in a few years if I can. Otherwise, hopefully I'll be big enough in the company, I'll hire you myself." He kissed her temple. "I'd like you to try the college thing too." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Yeah?" she said, grinning. "Rough him up a little?" she teased, miming a playful shove. "Call in a favor on the day of his daughter's wedding?" She nuzzled into him, nudging his chinline with her cold nose.

She shrugged about college, not overly enthusiastic about the whole experience. "I've already done the whole 'sex and drugs' thing," she said, sticking out her tongue.

	"Oh, god, I can't call Emily on her wedding day. Ever." Sometimes he still felt guilty about leading Emily on by feeling fatherly, but he would rather not talk about it with Mia. Kissing her forehead, he grinned. "Could try the whole learning thing." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mia looked at him like he'd grown a second head. That was a really weird reaction. "Uh, I was making a Godfather reference. What are you talking about?" She shrugged, not planning to make a big deal out of it, she just wanted him to know he was being weird. Weirdo. "Do people do that in college?" she asked, tilting her head.

	"Uh. Emily kissed me once. I was trying to check in on her at her first concert, and she misconstrued the hell out of it." He shook his head and winced, and hoped she wouldn't reproach him. Laughing, he kissed her forehead. "It's what I did." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mia wouldn't reproach him. Maybe mock him a little. She couldn't help laughing. "Oh, poor Eli," she said, still laughing. "So mine isn't the first cradle you've robbed, huh?" It was too bad Eli wasn't dating someone more sensitive. "Man, I really hope I didn't misconstrue anything. This kinda goes beyond the realm of 'just being polite'."

	"She surprised me! I was just helping out and making sure she didn't get roofied by this sketchy guy on her MyFace page and then she just laid one on me and her dad hit me and ..." He sighed. "I'm not robbing your cradle, you're older than your age." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Aww, you poor thing," she said, trying not to giggle. Eli was cute, sensitive.. It was painfully obvious how a teenage girl could've fallen heads over heels for him and taken his interest the wrong way. On top of the cute and sensitive thing, he was kind of clueless. "Want me to beat him up?" she asked, grinning.

Her smile faltered a little at his last comment. She didn't want to be older than her age. She wanted to be a normal eighteen year old. She was happy with Eli, though.

	"Nah, I don't think he's even here. I've upset you." He noticed the quirk in her mouth and kissed her. "I don't think it's a bad thing. You're not a little old man in every way," he grinned, grabbing her ass. "And I'm kind of twelve a lot of the time." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mia smirked. "I meant Lightman. I know I said I wouldn't punch him, but..." She shrugged. "The offer's there, if you want it. And I don't have super-strength, or anything, you know. It's not like I'd snap his neck with one punch." She giggled when he grabbed her ass. She grabbed him back, pulling his hips toward her. Still laughing, she kissed him.

	"It's fine, he apologized." Which really did mean a lot, since Eli figured that the man had probably apologized maybe twice in his whole life. Grinning when she grabbed his ass as well, he kissed back gently. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mia pouted a little--mostly for show--before kissing him again. "I could apologize after I hit him?" She shrugged, grinning some. "Well, if you ever change your mind, just say the word." She rolled on top of him, bending down to kiss him. "Man. I can't decide between Round Three or sleep." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	radicallyhonest 2010-08-29 10:26 pm UTC (link)
	"Not while he's still my boss and gainfully employing me. I doubt you want to date a bum." He grinned and kissed her ear, snuggling closer. "What makes you think I can go for round three? I'm tired!" He was honest. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Aww," she said, giggling. "Fine, but you should at least organize another paintball game so I can shoot him." Even if they were on the same team. Friendly fire was a very real part of warfare, and for accuracy's sake, it should really be reflected in paintball.

She grinned. "I was going to do most of the work," she said, taking his hand and suggestively sucking on one of his fingers. She let the moment linger for a minute before lowering his hand and shrugging. "But you're right, I mean, it's almost ten o'clock!" It felt later after their long night, and she wouldn't have any difficulty falling asleep. Still, she had to tease him a little.

	"I'll see what I can do," he chuckled. He really would, but he hadn't said he'd try it in earnest. He just would. He almost pouted when she said she'd do the work and sucked on his finger. "Woman, I want to, but my penis is tired!" He sulked, wiggling uncomfortably. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Aww, okay." She kissed his cheek and then rolled off of him and onto her side, still facing him. There was always tomorrow, she told herself. It's not as though they had to have all the world's sex tonight. Nobody was going to turn into a pumpkin. She kissed his shoulder, nuzzling into him. "Love you," she said quietly.

	He wrapped his arms around her, pulling her closer. "I love you too, Mia." (Reply to this) (Parent)
