Psl: sweater weather

[demonic_divinity]

[ Vergil -never- ever slept at the hide out, until he had utterly exhausted himself with Kat the night before. Doing things he never saw himself doing. Morning came just as wonderfully as the night before. He came to curled up with her in her bed. It was like something out of a dream.

At least until he realized what woke him... His second cellphone was buzzing like crazy. He kept it on silent whenever he was with the order. It shouldn't be making noise and yet it was. He shifted to the edge of the bed now wanting to wake her, she looked so beautiful asleep... This could be bad for his plans.

Finishing his pants up he pulled the far to expensive phone out. 15 missed calls and 12 texts... Shit. His foster father had a re-election lunch that he was supposed to attend.. which his adopter parents always insisted they show up together. His phone buzzed again this time he answered as he reached out running a finger along her cheek. She was so beautiful now. How had he never noticed?

He spoke quickly, lying like the silver tounged devil he was, claiming to have gotten caught up in work. Promising to be there in a hour. He woke Kat with kisses even if he was sure she was up but pretending to sleep. Apologies were given for having to leave so fast after the night before. If a morning after pill was needed well, the money would be left without question as he tugged on his pants, stole another kiss and snuck out of her room to go collect his clothes form his office and and rushing home to change and get where he needed to be. It was nearly 3pm by the time he sent a message back. ]

How do you feel, Kat? Are you okay?

[ Vergils paranoia wasn't always a good thing to have rub off, but in this case it was fine. He smiled at her glad it was her his heart had finally opened to. When her arm rests on his he nods and leads them for the door, someone else opens it before he even can. The store was clearly closed to the public already but a few perky sales girls swooped in as Vergils slipped the over coat off one gathered it up and moved away with it. An overly dolled up older woman made her way out.]

Is this the girl, Junior?

[ he nodded and then moved a hand to Kat's back to ease her into moving forwars.]

Yes, her name's Kat, and she is to get whatever she wants, no questions asked. Kat, this is a friend of my family, her name is Evita, so go on, enjoy yourself I'll be waiting here.

[mediumhoodie]

[Kat follows Vergil inside and takes a quick assessment of the place. She's never seen anything as lovely as this store or the sales women who seem to shine as much as the store and its wears. A light smile shapes her lips though there is a tension knotting between her shoulder blades that gives away how much she's trying.]

It's nice to meet you.

[She follows Evita into the store but instead of picking anything. She asks for the older woman's opinion and advice. It's far better than Kat trying to figure it out on her own and she begins learning about what is and is not proper. Evita is even kind enough to give Kat a few tips about the people who Vergil hang out with, except that he isn't Vergil to her.

When she reappears she's wearing a beautiful black dress that accents her curves and the natural beauty of her figure. Over top of it is a light shaw. She has a black rain sleek rain coat in her arms while the sales women are carrying a few other bags. She hadn't gone too crazy but she let the woman pick out what they thought was best.]

How do I look?

[demonic_divinity]

[ The woman knew a thing or two about the whims of the wealthy. Vergil was leaning against the counter looking over his phone. The one he kept silent when with the order. Texting someone as he waited. He didn't mind the wait it gave him time to handle some business with none being the wiser. The Order had a misson that didn't need either of them tonight. Kat's morning work had been to make sure all went smoothly and so far so good.

When Kat came out, Vergil looked up his eyes a bit widened at her. Damn, she could clean up good. Yes, she was always attractive but, there was something about that dress that just stunned him. A moment later a black card was handed to Evita, without him even asking the price. ]

You look amazing, Kat, how do you feel is the important question?

[ Evita seemed pleased with the outcome as the expensive receipt was handed to Vergil to sign. If Kat stepped forward 'William Marleigh II' signed on it. Though super fancy. AS soon as it was done, the driver was already coming in to collect the bags from the girls as Vergil offered Kat his arm.]

So, let's go play some skeeball. [ he was joking, he's never played Skeeball in his life.]

[mediumhoodie]

[Her smile widens as Vergil takes in the sudden change of her dress. She feels like a different person though it doesn't feel like that's a bad thing. It's just another part of herself that she hadn't realized was there.]

I feel- [Her bright green eyes glance away from him.] - surprised. It's a lovely dress and it's very comfortable. [Though she'll be taking small steps until she's sure that she isn't going to fall on her face.

Kat closes the distance between them as she slips her new rain coat over her shoulders.]

Yes.

[Once his coat is on she'll gently place her hand on his arm and let him lead the way.]

[demonic_divinity]

[ He can't help the almost goofy smile, as he slips the card back away and offers her his arm again once both coats are on. Walking a touch slower so she can adjust to the heels. Its weird her being so tall thank to the shoes but he smiles all the same.]

It looks breath taking on you.

[ He admitted as he lead them on to the car. The driver already knew where they were going. All the bags in the back. It wasn't a limo but it was still a nice car. The door was opened for them as he waited for her to get in first.]

[mediumhoodie]

[Kat is mindful of their progress and her steps but that light affectionate smile remains spread across her lips. It feels like a dream and she's experiencing it with Vergil.]

Thank you. We're a match set.

[She slides into the car, her hands gently resting in her lap.]

Where are we going?

[Kat imagines that Vergil has a plan, not that she'll have heard of wherever he's taking her, but she's curious.]

[demonic_divinity]

[ A dream for her, just another day for him. Only he gets to be with someone he enjoys spending time with, someone hes taking a risk for by letting her slip from his secret life into his public life. ]

You think much to highly of me Kat, these are my work clothes. I was at a meeting before this. Luckily, we can get through any door.

[ he could have gotten into Lilith's club had he wanted to, just by his adopted name. Another rich brat to be hooked on her goodies.

Sitting next to her the Car drives, as he crosses his arms over his chest like he so often does.]

I didn't think you would be one for french, but I know an Italian place it is amazing, and not a very known spot so there should be nothing to worry about. No actual reservations needed.

[mediumhoodie]

[Kat has no idea what's involved with French food but she's happy to hear that Vergil had picked something that's familiar to her. No matter where they go she'll be mimicking the manners of those around her. She cares about Vergil enough that she doesn't want to accidentally embarrass him.]

That sounds perfect.

[She reaches across the seat and gently laces her fingers through his.]

I do like Italian.

[Which means she likes noodles. Kat's fairly sure that Italian food equates to noodle dishes and the like.]

This is the first time I've been on a date. [The confession is whispered lightly beneath her breath as to keep it away from their drivers ear.]

[demonic_divinity]

[ When she laced their fingers he lifted the joint hands and kissed the back of hers ever so slightly. Offering a soft smile. His mind running plans in case anyone recognized them, but for now it was fine. ]

I'm glad, I favor it myself. They say french is more romantic but, this is also my first romantic date, at least of my own choosing. People have tried to set me up before but it never went well.

[ More he made sure of it. He didn't want married off to some snob who didn't see a problem with the world around them. Plus, a girlfriend would make his double life harder, Kat was already part of both sides, so less to hide.]

I am glad that I could be your first, I hope I live up to any expectations. [ Girls dream of first dates right? And how backwards they were, sleeping together then a date.]

[mediumhoodie]

[It's backwards but Kat doesn't mind. It isn't as if either of their lives had ever been normal. Dating and simple desires had always been out of Kat's reach and, until now, she hasn't allowed herself to hope for something like this.

They've always been close in one sense or another and this is just another step forward. From Vergil's point of view, she can imagine sex being less of an emotional step than public appearances. She's always been able to see both halves of his life and respect how he kept the two perfectly balanced. It'd always been a necessity, a way to fund the Order and keep it running. This is their order and that alone makes it important.

Kat smiles at him and then shakes her head softly from left to right.]

No expectations. [She had dreamed of freedom, never dating.] Maybe we can try French another time.

[Kat's open to anything as long as Vergil is by her side.]

[demonic_divinity]

[ The drive didn't take long, and they weren't heading to the rich side of town, but near where the office buildings sit. A short drive indeed. The place looked like a house from the outside as the door was opened and Vergil stepped out, holding his hand back to her to help her up. Those shoes have to be a nightmare. ]

Maybe, future ideas. For now, lets enjoy outside.

[ The walkway creaked as they headed inside. The inside had indeed at some point been a house, but the walls decorated with memorabilia of the past Soft music there were quite a few people at small tables. Another happy looking host walked forward, a look of familiarity given to Vergil, as he grabbed two menu's. ]

Good evening, sir and madame, welcome. It has been some time. [ he spoke to Vergil who gave a rather charming smile and nodded as they were lead towards the back to a table covered in red and candles. Everything felt almost to peaceful. They also looked just a little to fancy for the place.]

[mediumhoodie]

[Kat's hand slips into his as she raises to her feet. It hasn't been to difficult getting used to the new shoes and new height though she takes her time on steps and any surface that might have unexpected uneven contours.]

Yes.

[It's a beautiful place; small, friendly and cozy. Kat loves it. It's how she'd imagine a real home might feel like and she instantly feels herself relaxing.

Kat took a seat and uttered a soft thank you as the hosts placed down their menus. She hadn't needed etiquette classes to be polite. Kat naturally tries not to piss people off which usually involves being polite. Her dark emerald green eyes looks over at Vergil as a fond warm smile pulls over her lips.] This is wonderful.

[She doesn't mind being a little over dressed for the setting. It all feels absolutely perfect. Likely because this is her first date and she's with Vergil.]

[demonic_divinity]

[ Sitting, he didn't bother looking at the menu, he knew it well enough. He simply smiled back at her, looking amused. The way he usually did after they landed a good blow on the demons. A peaceful pleased look. Not quite as cute as the look he had laid in her bed beside her chatting in post orgasmic bliss, but that would need time with clothes on. ]

Isn't it though? I've favored this place for awhile now, and best off, most people I know dislike it, so no one should bother us. Oh, and trust me when I say you do not want to order a full serving of anything.

[ He explained. When the waiter came he ordered them some wine, before something he liked, some noddles and chicken, with a creamed tomato sauce. Before motioning to Kat, watching her.]

[mediumhoodie]

[Kat on the other hand has to look at the menu. She reads over a few lines before glancing up at the waitress.]

Can I please have the lemon and sage stake? [She orders the small portion as Vergil had suggested. Kat doesn't eat a lot, even when she has plenty of food; a smaller portion is ideal for her.] Thank you.

[Her attention turns to Vergil as the waiter steps away.]

Is this one of your favorite places? I can see you really enjoying your time here. [It's nice but not too nice and friendly but not too friendly. Everything is kept in balance, much like Vergil is.]

[demonic_divinity]

[ The menu's collected and the woman pleasantly took note and hurried off. Now it was just them. Vergil's smile had not faded yet, not the brightest but enough to show he was actually happy. The smaller portion would still be a lot. An amused noise escaped as he sat back.]

You know me so well, it is indeed. It is perfectly suited to my tastes and the food is excellent. Are you enjoying yourself so far?

[mediumhoodie]

I am.

[She turns towards Vergil with a warm smile. Her hands automatically rest in her lap though she looks relaxed. This place feelings like Vergil and she's never felt stressed around him.]

I like being able to see this part of you.

[There is so much about his parents that she doesn't know and before now she hasn't bothered to ask him.]

[demonic_divinity]

Good.

[ It was only then that he offered one of his hands over to her, His hands bare as he lived in his other sides shoes. Vergil of the Order wore gloves, protected himself. William Marleigh, well, he had no reason to. He could hold the hand of his date all he pleased. ]

Which i find funny, I feel lease comfortable like this... not with you I mean in general. It's never felt real, it always felt off. Honestly, finding out I was adopted was the best thing that ever happened to me. Which is me saying, I am happier when I am with you.

[mediumhoodie]

[Kat's fingers curled around his as he took her hand. His hands are warm and soft and the memory of their touch sends a pleasant and unexpected shiver down her spine. She tries not to smile as the feeling ebbs and instead reaches for her glass of water with her free hand for a cool sip.]

I understand.

Sometimes it takes time for us to find out place.

[What Kat doesn't say, is that her place is with him. It's always been with him.]
