WHO: Annie and Sage
WHAT: "Are you stalking me?"
WHERE: Outside Annie's culinary school in London
WARNINGS: Annie has a potty mouth. Possible demon innuendo.

The week was over, and Annie was happy to be finished. She'd spent the whole day slaving over a bake stove for a simpering twat of a woman, and after three trays of gummy profiteroles, Annie was ready to go home and cook a gougere just for her own fucking pride. She'd changed out of whites, packed her knives, and was now heading out the door. She could practically smell the portkey and freedom.

	And on a bench near the door, a certain vampire was laying on his back, sniffing the air and smiling. It smelled of sweets and pastries, and a faint smile was on his face. His skin was almost supernaturally golden, as was his hair, and more than a few women were tittering at the random shirtless man in too tight jeans on the bench. (Reply to this)

	Annie thought she recognized him, brow furrowing. "Damon Salvatore's friend. Are you stalking me or something?" (Reply to this)

	rebel_son 2011-06-23 03:46 am UTC (link)
	His eyes were still closed, and he smiled lopsidedly. "It was not my intention , but perhaps it is simply a nice coincidence." He opened one eye lazily, grinning at her. "Bonjour, Annie." (Reply to this)

	anniegirl 2011-06-23 03:54 am UTC (link)
	Well, she didn't have a problem with the view, she had to admit. "What were you doing here, then? I thought you said you couldn't eat?" She somehow believed that he hadn't just come looking for her, though she wasn't sure why. (Reply to this)

	rebel_son 2011-06-23 03:58 am UTC (link)
	"You were making profiteroles in class today, yes? With lemon curd inside?" He sat up, hair tugging free of a low ponytail he'd lazily put it into when he left his flat that morning. "I like to smell." (Reply to this)

	anniegirl 2011-06-23 04:07 am UTC (link)
	She'd sort of forgotten that, along with his name. "Yeah. A ton of 'em, none of 'em coming out right. I cook savory, I'm not a freaking baker." And of course, he didn't give a shit. "Your sense of smell is that good?" (Reply to this)

	rebel_son 2011-06-23 04:11 am UTC (link)
	"Did you forget what I am in addition to what I am?" He smiled at her, standing up and moving closer. He was taller than her substantially at six-four, and he smiled down at her. (Reply to this)

	anniegirl 2011-06-23 04:14 am UTC (link)
	"No, but I didn't know how good it was. Though I have to admit your name's slipped my mind. Sorry. I'm better with faces." Annie folded her arms across her body, her knife pouch hitting against her thigh. Defensive poses came naturally to her. (Reply to this)

	rebel_son 2011-06-23 04:27 am UTC (link)
	And looking like a rather contented housecat was what Sage was best at. He pushed an errant hunk of hair out of her eyes. "Je m'appelle Sage." (Reply to this)

	anniegirl 2011-06-23 04:40 am UTC (link)
	"Sage, right. Sorry." She would have said more, but then he touched her hair and she jerked away. He didn't get to just do that, and she turned away rudely. "Well, you got your smells, right?" (Reply to this)

	rebel_son 2011-06-23 04:43 am UTC (link)
	"Oui," he murmured, putting his hands in his pockets. "I will leave now, my apologies." He'd been wrong about her, he supposed, and he put his thumbs into his jeans pockets and turned to walk away. Overhead, a falcon turned in slow, lazy circles. (Reply to this)

	anniegirl 2011-06-23 04:48 am UTC (link)
	That hangdog look pissed her off. "Sorry. I don't like being touched." Her tone was faintly defensive, but a little less so. If he'd been a bigger asshole, he'd have done more or told her to lighten up or something. (Reply to this)

	rebel_son 2011-06-23 04:52 am UTC (link)
	"I did not know. I am truly sorry. I meant no offense." He stopped, looking up and smiling at the bird circling. It swooped down to rest on his shoulder, talons drawing the faintest amount of blood. (Reply to this)

	anniegirl 2011-06-23 04:58 am UTC (link)
	She tried to calm down, feeling stupid. "That's some bird. Aren't they endangered?" It clearly adored him, though; it looked as tame as anything. (Reply to this)

	rebel_son 2011-06-23 05:00 am UTC (link)
	"Perhaps they are here, but not at home." He smiled as Talon started to preen his hair, fussing over him like a mother hen. "She thinks of me as her child." Which made him laugh, considering he'd found her when she was young. (Reply to this)

	anniegirl 2011-06-23 05:09 am UTC (link)
	Okay, that actually was kind of cute. "She's really pretty." Not like she was going to try to pet it or anything. "When did you find her? Have you had her a long time? Or has she had you?" She knew about pet relationships. Vesper was still half convinced Daddy was her mate. (Reply to this)

	rebel_son 2011-06-23 05:20 am UTC (link)
	"She knows that she is trés belle, and that is the problem." He chuckled and reached up to scritch her behind the neck. "I found her when she was a baby, and she has been my mother ever since, to hear her tell it. You may pet her, if you wish." (Reply to this)

	anniegirl 2011-06-23 05:26 am UTC (link)
	She didn't, just because she needed her fingers. "To hear her tell it? Can you communicate? I mean, obviously, we can't really do that unless the animal is special somehow." She still tried to be nice to the bird, smiling, even sort of inclining her head to be respectful. (Reply to this)

	rebel_son 2011-06-23 05:31 am UTC (link)
	"I think it may be something I can do? I do not know, I think it is because she and I have been around each other so long. At last a few centuries now. And I was given my hound Saber shortly after I was born." He rubbed the bird's belly, chuckling as she gave a rather obvious noise of avian joy. (Reply to this)

	anniegirl 2011-06-23 04:46 pm UTC (link)
	Even Annie could tell the bird was happy, and she chuckled. "If you needed to earn a living, you'd make a great vet. I've never been around them, but I've had dogs my whole life. Roxy's half labrador, half pit bull." (Reply to this)

	rebel_son 2011-06-23 05:28 pm UTC (link)
	"Saber is ... not a hound that way." He bit his lip, hoping that Annie wouldn't judge him for having a hellhound, and knowing that she would. But at the same time, he liked her, and he sat back down on the bench. He wondered how a Hunter came to be a chef, or was it the other way round? (Reply to this)

	anniegirl 2011-06-23 05:33 pm UTC (link)
	It didn't take her long to process it, and she raised an eyebrow, taking a step back. "I suppose you're going to say he's completely docile and doesn't eat souls, right?" She might just believe him, honestly; he was clearly totally unusual and it followed that if he could change himself, he could change the things around him. But it was still weird. (Reply to this)

	rebel_son 2011-06-23 05:36 pm UTC (link)
	"Mais oui. He likes people very much. He, like myself, has not spent much time in the Infernal Realm." The Dark Dimension was bad enough, what with the slavery and torture, and even after Elena had helped to give the slaves hope via rebellion, things were still bad for them. (Reply to this)

	anniegirl 2011-06-23 06:00 pm UTC (link)
	"What does he eat, then?" It was more curiosity than defensiveness, for the first time. "The only experiences I've had with hellhounds are the type that, y'know, tried to eat my parents." She hadn't learned about Mom's deal until fairly recently. She knew Daddy made one to save Uncle Sam, but it had never really come to the moment of truth. (Reply to this)

	rebel_son 2011-06-23 06:01 pm UTC (link)
	"Hamburger, mostly." He smiled and shook his head. "Sometimes roast beef. Mrs. Flowers, a friend of mine, she spoiled him terribly while I was exiled for a period. Soup bones and steak every day? Oh, la la." His tone was fond, and he shook his head. He missed Mrs. Flowers terribly. (Reply to this)
