[I]'Was she just about to..?'[/i] Adley couldn't believe it, both blinking in surprise and feeling her cheeks grow a hot red. If she was, it was one way of telling Adley she liked her romantically! It certainly wasn't the way she had imagined it though, being kissed before any words were spoken about it. Then again, maybe it was just that Aphrodite wanted to kiss her.. perhaps it was more lust than actual care? That thought sent a shiver down her spine, causing her lips to frown slightly. It wasn't so much that it was bad to do such things, but Adley knew herself, she needed that emotional connection to be there or she wasn't interested in lying in bed naked with another woman. Maybe it was something Adley should try and sneak into the conversation?

Though Adley's thoughts had been elsewhere, the voice of the woman snapped her back, making her realize she did miss the touch of the elf. Shaking herself from it a bit, she stood up and smiled to the woman. She didn't recognize her, however she did spot the Harper pin attached to her shirt, Adley's own just below her left shoulder - making it easy for both to know they were Harpers. [b][color=00dfff]"Oh yes, I'm fine.. just enjoying company with my friend.. was there something you needed or just being friendly and checking up on us?"[/color][/b] She asked it in a polite, but playful manner, despite the woman's own irritation. She wasn't the inn keeper from downstairs, seeing as she was a woman and they had never spoken, but she did notice her from working in the kitchen of the mini-tavern area. She hadn't known an actual Harper was working here, only of the Harper-friend in the inn keeper. She must've been the local Harper keeping watch on the area and of course, she [i]knew[/i] Adley was here - local Harpers knew their areas inside and outside.
