Gwen Raiden will spark your ass ([info]sparkingfreak) wrote in [info]wariscoming,

Who: Gwen Raiden and Lindsey McDonald
What: She's been far too good lately, time to be a little bit bad!
When: Midnight
Where: The penthouse suite
Rating: TBD
Status: In Progress


It had been far too long since Gwen Raiden did a bit of honest stealing. Lately she had been verging on being a good girl, what with quitting the coke, spending her time helping get the security system at the apartments good enough to keep even her out and even getting involved in a doom filled good vs evil battle to capture one of the flying tin can aliens.

It was bordering on virtuous. And that had to change.

Finding her target had been a happy coincidence. She'd been sitting in a bar a few nights ago when a clearly overly wealthy jerk in a suit started groping some waitress, ignoring her steadily increasing protests. Finally, the bastard had laughed as she'd fled in tears. Men like that thought they could have anything. Gwen intended on taking it all away.

Just because her target was an asshole, didn't take away from the illegality of it. It would still be enough to let her feel deliciously bad, if only for a while.

She'd spent the last couple of days following him, seeing where he was staying. He did have rather a lot of wealth, including a rather beautiful piece of artwork, a bronze and marble sculpture that Gwen decided would look so much better on her own mantelpiece.

The night served to help hide her, her black clothes helping her blend into the shadows. Her hair was tied back and everything about her demeanor was all business as she gathered her gear together to set about relieving Mr Asshole of his possessions.

Lindsey watched Gwen prepare to do what she did best. Not that he was entirely sure why this time, possibly just something pretty she'd seen and decided had to be hers. He supposed that was alright though. Definitely unsuprising.

"So tell me the whole story and how you want me to play into it?" he asked.

Truth be told he was bored, work was sickeningly unchallenging and he was looking for something to appeal to the side of him as yet unfulfilled by this strange version of America with no Wolfram and Hart, no Senior Partners, and entertainingly, no Angel.

"What're we stealing and where?"

Gwen paused in her preparations, turning to Lindsey with a playful grin.

"Well, this guy thinks he can have whatever he wants and I want to prove him wrong," she started. "Beginning with a pretty sculpture he has." And it really was very pretty, a modern piece that Gwen wanted for herself rather than to sell for any profit.

She turned towards Lindsey, almost leaning over him in his chair with a smirk. "And you are here to make sure I'm still as good as I've ever been because I'm feeling horribly out of practice. And to help me carry the thing out, it's too big for one person to balance properly." Even with her extra strength, the size and shape of the sculpture was awkward to carry on her own.

She remained where she was, leaning with her face only a few inches from him, still with her playful smirk toying over her lips. "And besides, I know you're bored and this could be fun in a non getting exterminated kinda way."

He couldn't help the laugh that escaped his lips, it wasn't just a heist for something pretty, the owner of the statue had irritated her somehow and now he was going to suffer for it with the loss of something probably worth more than this whole place.

"He got you mad huh? Or just plain old irritated"

She leaned over him and he smirked up at her happy enough to go along with the heist, he was bored more than anything else and Raiden doing heists was decidedly an entertaining way to spend the evening.

"So just there for the heavy lifting or do you just want to order me around, cause I'm not so sure" he teased.

He leaned in a little closer to her "I'm suprisingly useful sometimes, huh?"

Gwen pouted playfully, tilting her head to one side as she watched him, her gray eyes meeting his.

"He was groping the waitress," she admitted. "Made the girl cry. Now really she should have kneed him some place very painful, but since she didn't, I'll have to. In a more metaphorical kinda way."

And she really hoped she made him cry.

She laughed as he leaned closer, shifting so she was sitting across his lap and she could lean back to grab the small lockpicking kit on the table just behind her, stretching up again to fasten it closed and to her belt.

"Maybe I just want to order you around for the amusement factor?" She arched an eyebrow at him. "Or maybe I'd just appreciate the company." It was always fun to do a heist with him around after all.

Okay that sold it. Lindsey hated guys like that with a passion, ignorant idiots with nothing better to do than mess with women earning an honest living, he'd punched more than one idiot in Gwen's time stripping. So Raiden taking his stuff. He was fine with...well, actually he was pretty fine with it anyway.

Except for the ordering around.

"Who say you get to order me around Raiden?" he asked raising a casual eyebrow of his own and smirking as she slid into his lap. They were comfortable, friendly. Really very...

Friends, they were friends.

"Its company. You need the company. I'd make a really bad lacky and you know it. I'd get defiant and nothing would get done."

With her gear now all firmly stowed, Gwen was free to look at Lindsey with a pout, still sitting across his lap with her arm now casually draped over his shoulders.

"Awww, gorgeous, I've been ordering you around since the day we met, you've just been too male to see it." Always a sucker for a pretty face, that boy. Darla's. Eve's. But never really hers. Not that she cared, because she didn't. Not at all.

But sitting this close to him, like she had a thousand times before, Gwen still felt her breath catch in her throat slightly. It was ridiculous, she'd always been like this with him, even given him more than one lap dance in her time, it was her ridiculous imagination that anything felt different now.

It was Gunn's fault. It really was. Just the one time with him and it was making her brain do funny things and the memories of it... It was Gunn she was attracted to, Gunn she had slept with. She could still feel the memory of his touch, could just close her eyes and see...

Lindsey.

It may have been the memory of Gunn's touch, but it was Lindsey her imagination supplied, the image of Lindsey's hands over her skin, Lindsey kissing her.

Her eyes snapped open again as she coughed, embarrassed, sliding off Lindsey's lap, extremely thankful that he wasn't psychic.

"Fine, just the company then. But only because I want this pretty sculpture more than I want the fun of you following my orders, okay?"

Dammit she was still sitting on him, her full attention now on him, leaning into his light grip on clothed shoulders. And for a moment, just a single moment, when she had her eyes closed, he thought maybe, just for a second she...

She moved away from him. Stood up, back to business, dammit. Dammit, another few seconds and who knew what might have happened. Lindsey stood up slowly, watching her, calculating. Everything calculated. It was just who he was after all. He stepped close to her, hands resting in the same light grip at gloved arms. It was just teasing, what he was doing. That was it, a joke between friends.

"Couldn't swing the other way, could it Raiden" he asked playfully, walking her toward the wall slowly, calmly. "Could you actually do it, I've never known you to follow an order you weren't gonna do anyway"

Sculpture. Heist. Focus. He thought he might have lost focus, he smiled slightly and relented just a little from the teasing his hands still light where they were.

There was something about Lindsey whenever he got into that mode that meant Gwen couldn't tear her eyes away from him. Calculated, commanding, looking like a man in complete control. That was because he was. She'd seen him like this in the courtroom more than once, as he expertly played the jury, the judge, even the opposing council just the way he wanted. It was almost predatory and it always excited her.

Even if right now the excitement felt more intense for reasons Gwen couldn't quite understand.

A playful smile lingered over her lips as he walked her back towards the wall and she didn't resist, almost obedient in her movements. She only stopped when her back hit the wall and she could go no further and she looked up at him, a glint of something both mischievous and dangerous in her eyes.

"Well I don't know," she smirked slowly even if she felt a tug of disappointment as he relented. "Why don't you give me an order and see if I follow it?"

Oh she was going with it, obeying. Following his hands as he'd led her toward the wall, offering, teasing, dammit she was teasing. It was just a game between them. Just a bit of fun. Two friends.

He tightened his grip again, closing the space between them, all up against her. Closing her arms around her, crossing them over and helping her into the turn until she was in front of him, his front pressed against her back.

"Hands up" he told her, waiting to see what she did before his own hands moved to her shoulders and started a slow trail along her clothed skin, slowly along her shoulders, sliding across her chest, down to her stomach where he paused.

What was he doing? What was he doing and why the hell were his hands itching to slide lower. Why the hell did he need to slide lower.

"...Tell me if you want me to stop. Otherwise not a word. Not a sound Raiden, Understand"

They had joked around before. Many times. Played around with her dancing while he rolled his eyes at her. Nothing was different now.

Except for the way her breath was catching in her throat and her heart was racing.

He gave her the order to put her hands up and she obeyed instantly, sliding them up to rest of the wall above her head, gloved fingers lightly pressed against the smooth plaster. She almost moaned at the feel of his touch, even through clothes. It wasn't unusual for them, in all the years she'd known him, Lindsey had never been afraid of her. Others had shied away, even when her skin was completely covered, but never him. And now he was sliding his hands over the soft leather that covered almost every inch of her body.

No, him touching her wasn't usual, but this, her reaction to it, that was. She glanced up at him, biting her lip for a moment before making a show of pressing them together. He'd said not a sound and she was more than happy to go along with that.

And she wasn't asking him to stop.

Maybe she should, maybe she should step away before this weirdness went too far, but she just couldn't bring herself to. It had been too long since she was close to anyone and even with the strangeness, she didn't want the intensity of the moment to stop.

She didn't stay stop, and he inched closer to her, his own breath catching as he breathed into her hair. Breathing in, and out and in and out. And somehow, wondering what had made it change, how he'd taken her this far. Why he'd taken her this far.

His hands slid lower, round her ass, squeezing against the leather gently before one slipped around to the front, running between, just a hint of pressure. Just a hint.

"You okay?" he asked her softly.

Dammit he wanted...

Something.

Her?

This was cruel. To her, it had to be cruel to her, but fuck if he could stop. He pressed slightly into her before turning her to him slowly, taking in every inch of her and finally pressing against her.

"...Raiden..." he managed dark eyes boaring into her.

Dammit.

He did. He wanted her. Typical. Wanting what he could never have.

She almost whimpered, biting the noise back just in time, as he slid his hand around, her body arching into his touch. So close, so damn close to being everything she wanted, the feel of his hands over her bare skin. And that was what she wanted, not just anyone's hands, but his.

It was teasing, and absolute torment.

When he turned her around, she was breathing hard. Her own gray eyes met his, her gaze slightly unfocused. And she kept her hands against the wall, just above her head.

"Lindsey...." she did break his rule, but she didn't think he'd mind. Or take it as a sign to stop... whatever it was they were doing. The rational part of her which knew this could end badly was getting drowned out by the lust she was feeling.

Her body pressed against his, two layers of clothes keeping him safe from her deadly skin. But god, how much she wanted to kiss him. She lifted her leg, hooking it around him to keep him close, this time unable to keep the whimper back.

She should have stopped, asked him what they were doing, asked herself the same thing for that matter. Maybe taken a few breaths and gone back to the heist, but she couldn't bring herself to. She just wanted him.

Lindsey pushed her back when she spoke his name, slowly but powerfully, his gaze still entirely and completely fixed on her. "What'd I tell you?" he told her teasingly his hand lightly reaching down to spank her ass. Fuck, what was he even doing here. He'd done this before, played this game, sometimes even with her. But he'd never gone this far. Never pushed her this far. But he was in now. He'd committed.

Her leg hooked around him and he pushed against her, growing hard just by the proximity to her and he continued teasing between her legs, over her leather pants with one hand as the other explored her body, squeezing at her breasts.

"Sort of wish you had the latex with you" he muttered before glancing back to the seat. She could dance, they could go that far again maybe. Or were they past that now.

What was he doing?

He asked himself that question over and over as he finally rested his hands on her hips trying to drag her down with him as his mouth ran across the leather.

"...Lie down" he told her

She pretended to pout when he spanked her, but the purr in the back of her throat gave her away as she instinctively pushed towards his hand, wanting another touch. Part of her wanted to close her eyes but she found herself unable to tear away from the intensity of his gaze as she continued to watch him, obediently silent.

The leather was good, but he had a point about the liquid latex. She'd left her supply at the club, never going back after she had given up the cocaine. She'd have to get some more for next time. If there would be a next time, she pretty much didn't want to break the concentration of the moment to even think about it too much. All she could do was moan at the contact, biting her lip to keep from being too loud.

When he told her to lie down she did, without question. Without even arguing. Where usually, even when she danced for him, there was always a sarcastic quip or a wry smirk, now she just went along with his every order. She even looked eager for the next one, lying back and watching him, arching her body as he ran his mouth across her leather. Leather that was soft enough and thin enough that she could feel the heat of his breath on her skin. Her eyes never left his, completely trusting. Even if this was further than they had ever been, she still trusted him completely and she was craving more.

She was obeying, everything he told her she obeyed. He liked that, and knew he could count on her. He trusted her, and he hoped she trusted him.

The things he wanted to do to her. He didn't know what she had here, if anything, Sex and Gwen Raiden were never a combination. She couldn't touch. Not here.

But he could make her moan nonetheless.

He leaned in close. Mouth inches from her ear, as close as he could get and not be in danger, his breath caressing her skin. "I'm going to touch every inch of you that I can. I'm going to kiss, and press, and push. I want you to tell me what you like" he said as he pushed himself on top of her, pressing against her, thrusting his clothed skin against hers. "I want you to tell me what you like, what you want more of or less of. Tell me what makes you want to scream for me?. Understood?"

There was a part of her mind inwardly kicking herself for not having anything like the liquid latex around, anything that could help them with, well, this. It wasn't that she hadn't thought, in depth, about how she might potentially try sex with a guy, but she'd never found anyone prepared to take the risk of being with her.

Until now it seemed.

Lindsey was the one man Gwen had always trusted completely. In the past she had trusted her soul, literally, with him and now she was trusting him with her, knowing he wouldn't hurt her.

Making her scream was totally different. She was already incredibly close to screaming out his name, relishing in the feel of him pressed on top of her. She nodded, with a gasp, her leg still wrapped around his to pull him close and her hands still above her head. "I understand." Even as she moaned again, she smirked hungrily at him, wondering if really she had been allowed to speak that time.

He raised an eyebrow as she spoke again, "You like rulebreaking?" he asked her, slapping at her thigh this time unable to reach round to her ass. "Do we need to remedy this?" he added, waiting for silence.

He pressed against her, up and down, working a steady rythem for a few moments before slowly, almost painfully slowly sliding himself down her body, hands roaming along her chest, squeezing at her nipples through her clothes, along her stomach, and down again between her legs, they'd crossed that line now, he might as well relish it. But he wanted her completely.

He wanted to make it better for her than that idiot Gunn had, leaving the next day, leaving her alone. Her.

No one did that to her.

He scraped his hands along her thighs, occasionally foraying upward, teasing. Always teasing. It was all they had.

Another slap elicited a laugh from Gwen, playful and wanting, before she pouted at Lindsey even if she was obediently silent. For now at least, though who knew how long that would last.

Her body felt sensitive to his every touch. A side effect of being permanently turned on was she really was always turned on. Every feel of his hands over the leather made her moan and writhe under him, her eyes begging for more even if the words didn't come out.

She wanted him, maybe she always had and never realized, but right now she wanted to forget that Gunn had ever happened and only think about Lindsey and how much he was driving her crazy.

Closer and closer to the edge with every teasing touch. She wished she could do more for him, wished L.I.S.A still worked so they could be free of the clothes currently confining them.

He'd make her come, give her that release if nothing else. It was all he could do for her. Though he wished so much it could be more. Funny, he'd never thought of Raiden like this...

Or had he?

Maybe, but underneath him like this, moaning and begging for him he felt like this was more right. This was what he had wanted for years. He thrust against her agan,, hands working now along her shoulderblades.

"You can scream when I make you come" he told her, "But not before".

With that said, he slapped her thigh again even as he kissed up along her leather clad bootlegs. And again. And again.

...He found he liked it. And so did she.

"Turn over. On fours" he ordered, clambouring off her with a final thrust at her.

She felt like she was on fire and she was trembling with the need for release. Being with Gunn had been awkward and uncomfortable and hardly the thing dreams were made of. But this, right now, it felt like Lindsey just knew how to drive her crazy, even without her saying a word to him.

Even down to the fact she loved the feel of his hand when it slapped against her, the sweet, sharp heat from the contact making her groan for more. It was something she hadn't even known herself that she would enjoy, but it seemed that Lindsey knew her better than she knew herself.

She bit back any scream, feeling painfully close but not quite there yet and she didn't want Lindsey to stop what he was doing, not even for a moment. So when he ordered her, she moved swiftly, getting on all fours, leaning on her forearms with her elbows on the floor. Her body arched with all the grace of a dancer as she glanced over her shoulder at him, her eyes looking dark with hunger and lust.

"Good girl" he told her against her ear before standing, watching her, she was practicly trembling with every second, shivering with lust and want. She was perfectly positioned.

He tapped her lightly on the ass. Just lightly, before walking around her again, watching. Observing. Then a few minutes later, another slap, and another after that, and another.

Time after time he gave her what he knew she wanted, maybe needed. Intervals changing, keeping her suprised. And she took orders well, perhaps ironicly. She was so close, so very very close and so very very diciplined.

The slaps grew harder.

"The things I want to do to you Raiden" he confided. "You're doing very well"

Slap. Hard, and fast.

For someone who had spent almost her entire life defying authority and fighting against any attempt to control her, Gwen felt surprisingly alright with submitting to Lindsey. More than alright, it felt like more than something she wanted and closer to something she needed.

She trembled with anticipation as he walked around her, never moving from the position he had ordered her into. And every slap, gradually harder, every one made her gasp appreciatively, the warmth spreading over her skin.

Her imagination more than supplied the images of what he might want to do to her, even though she never closed her eyes, the images appearing in her mind. And god, she wanted them, all of them, somehow.

And right now she was feeling closer and closer to the edge, whimpering openly now, but not screaming. Not quite screaming out his name just yet.

It was working like he wanted and so he kept it up, the pleasure this was giving her, every little sensation he could hear in her voice when the silence finally broke until finally he dropped down to her level, hand caressing her ass and sliding around to rub at her as he ran the other hand along her back turning himself to the side.

"Sit up" he ordered, practicly wrapping them together as she did.

He slid a hand down to continue rubbing at her even as his own slipped inside his pants, he needed some level of release even if it couldn't come from her, and they'd come this far. Working her, still as well as palming his own cock Lindsey quickened the pace.

"Tell me you want this Raiden" he insisted. "Tell me"

Dammit all he wanted to do was jump on her.

He had worked her up so much, driven her so close to the edge, that when she sat up, she ended up all but collapsed against him, pushing eagerly against his hand. She could see the way he was touching himself, which turned her on even more, though she craved being able to touch him herself.

"I want this," she confirmed, though the words could barely get out. "I want you."

And she did, she really really did. Her head fell back against his shoulder as she gasped and writhed, until finally she fell crashing over the edge, screaming his name as she came, just as he'd ordered her to. Every nerve felt on fire and for a moment she even saw stars as she finally got the release she had been needing for so long, more intensely than she'd experienced before.

He'd gotten her off, he thought, still stroking himself enough that he wasn't so dammed desperate. He still wanted to touch her, still wanted to be inside her.

He helped her through it, free hand at her waist, guiding her through. Until finally the pleasure subsided and Lindsey realised just how they'd spent the last while. He met her gaze, not ashamed by any means.

"...So, new even for us?" he tried tying up his pants again and pulling her back into his arms being mindful of her killer skin.

"You okay with...all that"

Gwen was shaking slightly as she gradually regained her breath, her body still needing his for support. Without him there, she suspected she would be little more than a boneless heap.

It took her a moment to make her brain function again and it suddenly hit her what she had just done, and more specifically who she had just done it with.

"We.... I mean you.... me.... us and," she waved her hand slightly. "That was different." Yeah, definitely different.

She lay back in his arms, feeling intensely comfortable there and really not in any hurry to move any time soon.

"I'm okay, I'm more than okay," she glanced up at him with a faint frown. "Are you okay?" She was very aware of quite how one sided it all had been and she wished there was something more she could do. She was very open to suggestions if he had any ideas.

He was still working it out in his head, still trying to work out at what point it had gone from a bit of play to something more, he supposed it was when he'd stopped at her stomach. That might have been when the decision was made. And the experiance had left them both lost for words. Well no, he'd go with flustered, he was never lost for words.

"It was different. Mostly in that we both seem very okay with it."

He ran his hand up and down her arm for a little while, still trying to come to tems with what they'd just done together. She had been so wanting, and he'd been only to happy to see her fulfilled. And she'd been willing, eagar to follow every order he'd given her. Every single one. He'd enjoyed helping her out but what did that mean, they could never really be together because of her power. They could never kiss.

Not really.

Raiden. Him and Raiden. Raiden and...

He tilted her head and kissed her, just for half a second, just contact and jumped back, shocked. But convinced of one thing. Raiden had called them 'Us and It made sense.

"Us huh?. ...How does that sound?"

She was okay with it, extremely so. There was no one else she felt so comfortable with, so able to be herself.

Until there was a sharp reminder of who herself really was when he kissed her. It was brief, fleeting even, and she still sparked, shocking him slightly. Gwen tensed, feeling much more awake now.

"Are you insane, I could have killed you," she frowned, her fingers, gloved as always, reaching up to brush over his lips where the shock had been.

"Us sounds...." she trailed off, looking torn. 'Us' sounded right, it sounded like everything she could want. Lindsey understood her, understood her need for control in her life, to drop the brash act and submit sometimes.

But then there was still the other thing. "Us sounds like I could accidentally kill you."

Was he insane?. Really depended on who you asked.

"I know, but I didn't hold it long enough, did I"

Raiden brushed her gloved fingers at his lips and he wondered what the hell had taken him this long. The answer was sort of obvious. Darla. Eve.

Dammit all, Eve.

"Us sounds like I know that, sounds like I don't think I care. Sounds like you and me were always close, we joked how many times about 'if we could'. What if I don't need to think about the 'if'. Raiden...what're you worried about. I know you. I know you could kill me. I also know you'll never not be careful. Tell me you don't want this."

Sometimes he really was infuriating. It was one of the things she liked most about him a lot of the time, but really right then she wanted to slap him.

Or maybe kiss him. Or, okay, definitely kiss him and maybe slap him.

It was all very confusing.

"I want this," she admitted. Wanted them. It had been way too long, years of jokes and playing around, leading to what she now realized was a hell of a lot of sexual tension. "You drive me insane, you know that?" She half laughed, burying her face against his shoulder.

"You really don't need to think about the if?" Her voice sounded skeptical. "This could be all we can do, and you're a guy."

He laughed, yes he was a guy. He wouldn't deny that, but he'd been thinking, in the short amount of time he could think since what they'd done. And he wanted this.

"My steller record with women, a Vampire, The Child of the Senior Partners. I've been doing something wrong obviously. You...we...deserve a chance same as anyone. And we're here, in a world without the Firm, the Powers, idiot sanctimonious know it all vampires. But I think you and me could be good Raiden, you're already one of my best friends, lets just try, see where we go. What'dya say"

They could be good, they could be very very good. The rest he could deal with, somehow. She deserved something better in her life and he was going to try and give it to her.

The git actually laughed, making Gwen pout and poke him in the shoulder, almost indignantly. It was a real issue, the fact she wouldn't be able to give him what another girl could. What Eve had done.

"Well I could have told you that," she pointed out. "I was there for the whole Darla thing remember?" And how much of a mess that had been. And Lindsey beaten to a pulp by Angel. "And Eve's an idiot." So it was possibly catty and act like that, but she couldn't help it.

"There is still Spike here," she added, possibly stalling slightly before she got to the main point, shifting around until she was sitting across his lap, just as she'd been when they'd started down this road. "You and me could be amazing and you know it. You've always known it."

There had to be some way she could touch him, to feel the heat of his skin against her own. She needed to be able to really kiss him, not just the fleeting moments they could snatch now.

Eve. Who he had cared about. But she wasn't Raiden, Raiden who had fallen into the catgory of a girl he couldn't have. Not ever. And now it seemed he could and it confused him. But Raiden had a point, she was there, she'd always been there for him and he was starting to realize that was enough for her.

And she was sitting on his lap again. Damn it all.

"We could be amazing, how could we not be. You're you?"

He pulled her back into his arms and was happy with his decision, he wanted to make Gwen Raiden happy whatever it took.

"You and me against the world babe?"

She didn't resist when he pulled her into his arms, sliding gloved hands around the back of his neck as she pressed herself more closely to him, the soft leather keeping her skin away.

"We've always been you and me against the world," she pointed out with a half smile. "Since the day we met and I gave you a lap dance for a hundred bucks and a business card." Seemed like a lifetime ago. Literally another world. Since then they'd stuck through Darla and the Firm, Lindsey leaving, Eve, hell and now this place. In all its weirdness.

"Maybe this place would have some more answers," she shrugged. "Some way of turning me, well, off." At that point she was willing to do anything to gain control, to be able to touch him.

Lindsey remembered that night, the dance she'd given him, he'd known what she was but known too upon seeing her that if he could have he would have slept with her that night. They'd never have been the same as they were now. They'd never have been as close as he felt they were now.

"I remember that lap dance, like it was yesterday. You were amazing babe, but I think the fact nothing could happen made us stronger."

He paused,

"You felt like this, and you were there through Darla, you knew I was with Eve. Didn't you ever think of saying it to me?"

Some way of turning her off. He'd find something, do whatever it took. besides the obvious, they'd keep their souls their own thanks.

Gwen smirked slightly, thinking back on that night. Lindsey had stood out among the crowd of losers in that bar, not just because of the money he had flashed around, but the air of confidence that had instantly attracted her.

"You would have gotten bored of me if you'd had me back then," her smirk widened. "No challenge in it for you. You'd have probably just moved on pretty quickly." Like Gunn did. He never did call her after that night. She'd brushed it off, pretended it hadn't hurt, but she couldn't deny it had stung.

Had she felt like this? Lindsey's question made her pause before she realized, yeah, she had. She'd always wanted him, just always figured it could never happen. Had watched him get hurt by Darla and was waiting for the same to happen with Eve. "What could I have said?" she asked softly. "Don't be with them, be with the untouchable freak? I couldn't have asked that."

He couldn't deny it, it was possible he would have gotten bored, he wouldn't have gotten to know her as well as he did, she would have been a pretty girl in a line of pretty girls and that would have been it.

"So I'm all about the challenge am I?."

She had a point, what could she have said to him, while he was obsessing over Darla and while Eve had been by his side against Angel, what could she have said, or how would he have known how she felt about him.

"Lets just make the most of what we have, how about it?" he asked, it was the best they could do with where they'd come from.

She looked up at him, smirking faintly, knowing exactly what Lindsey was like. Hell, she'd watched him with enough pretty girls over the years, even aside from Darla and Eve.

"You know you're all about the challenge, you've got the attention span of a child when it comes to women," she arched her eyebrow. "I mean come on, how many times did I have to get rid of dumb blondes for you?"

The past was behind them and if nothing else Gwen could be really grateful for the fact that neither Darla nor Eve were even in this world. "So you and me in a crazy new world, with demons trying to kill us all, huh?"

He wasn't sure that was true, attention span of a child. He just...never settled, not even with the two he'd cared about most. Eve had been danger and plans and Darla had been.

Well, Darla.

"My attentions all on you now Raiden. So prepare to actually be suprised at my ability to focus. I've always been able to focus on you when you needed me right. Or at least mostly. And this world ain't gonna be any different. You and me in a few days, we're going on a date. A real date, and it might fail and you might end up wondering what you see in me but we're gonna try. Till then, don't we have a idiot to make cry?"

Gwen laughed, resting her head back on his shoulder.

"Okay, I'll prepare to be absolutely stunned at your ability to focus." Actually it wouldn't be all that surprising, she remembered well the single mindedness he'd had over Darla back in those days and he was right, whenever she had needed him he'd been around, at least before he'd left town entirely. And then the other thing he'd said sunk in and she sat up, looking stunned for another reason.

"A date? As in you and me date? Like a normal couple thing date?" Her nose crinkled with confusion. "How does one of those work?"

She thought about it a bit more, chewing on her lip as she tried to think of what a normal girl would do, but she couldn't get past one idea. "Is there a reason that stealing stuff can't be a date?" She did still want that sculpture after all.

He joined her in the laugh, it was easy with Raiden, they'd always been this comfortable and now, there was just more to it he supposed. Like the date that had suprised her. It had sort of suprised him to say it, more than that, to mean it.

"...Like a normal couple date yeah, whats so wrong with," he paused finally realising what she'd said, "You want to go and steal something, as a date."

She was weird, she was very very weird.

"...I suppose we could do that. You're insane but luckily I knew that getting into this"

She really really did want to steal stuff, and she didn't see any reason why it couldn't be a date. For them anyway.

"Well why not?" she pointed out. "I thought dates were meant to be this thing where couples go and do things they enjoy together and I enjoy stealing stuff. So it could work as a date, right?"

That was her logic and she was sticking to it, even if he did call her insane. She grinned with a laugh that could maybe be described as manic as she looked at him, gray eyes sparkling.

"You don't just know I'm insane, you actually like it. Keeps things interesting, admit it."

He laughed, he supposed that was the idea of a date. And only Raiden could want to steal on a date. But she was right about her craziness keeping things interesting.

Whatever 'this' was, whatever would come of the things they had done together tonight, he didn't know, It confused him more than most things. This woman who he could never truly have but wanted all the same.

But right now he would think about the job she had for them. The pseduo date.

"Lets go then" he said, releasing her from his grasp. "Who's giving the orders?" he asked with a smirk as he got to his feet.

Whatever this was with them, it was new and confusing, but that didn't stop the excitement Gwen was feeling just before a big steal. There was no other thrill quite like it and besides, she knew Lindsey enjoyed it as much as she did.

So she stood up gracefully as he let her go, grinning wildly.

"You may give the orders in here, which is totally hot by the way," she trailed off a moment as her mind really went to a whole new place again before she snapped back to the here and now with a smirk. "But out there I am so the boss of you."

At least when it came to stealing stuff anyway.

Lindsey smirked at the thought of Gwen taking charge, it was an interesting concept and one he wasn’t entirely adverse to in a woman, Darla had been like that while Eve had pretty much been the opposite, he imagined Gwen would be somewhere in the middle but that didn’t stop him levelling her with a stare just to show her who exactly was in charge right then and there and finished up the look by moving close enough to her to run a hand along her leather clad stomach. He hoped she was okay with it, the slight foray into domination but she hadn’t complained. And they were about to go out on a job.

“Fine Raiden, outside of here, on the job, I’ll follow you, always do when you let me help”

Which was rare but it had happened, and he’d enjoyed it quite a lot. Plus the job had gotten done.

“So lead on, boss” he teased.

Gwen met his stare with a hint of defiance and a playful smirk that showed just how much she really was tempted to say screw the job and stay right there with him. Almost without her even realizing, her breath hitched in her throat as his hand ran over her leather. It was closer than anyone else ever got and she was relishing in it.

But there was still the pretty sculpture and her need to do something that most would consider really quite bad. So she grinned, checking her gear for the final time.

"Just do what I tell you, the instant I tell it, with absolute obedience, that so much to ask?" Her tone was playful as she led the way outside, leading the way to the loser's apartment and his pretty pretty things.
