When she sat down from front of him he pulled her to him once more, resting her back against his chest. Leaning down he let a deep growl echo in his throat at her playful comment before he gently kissed her neck, such a softer action compared to his rough attitude. He was showing signs of softness and kindness towards her compared to anyone else. He could feel his blood rushing and his head spinning, man… he really did love this goldfish.

Hearing her talk as he snapped his fingers, he stopped when she said thank you for giving her a chance. His brow flared as his hand stayed over the water. That wasn’t something he was expecting and it fazed him more than he thought. The hand that was over the water moved through the air and placed against her cheek and turned her head to look at him. His amber-golden eyes stared at her as his expression dropped into a soft and gentle face, a small moved across his fine lips; without giving much of a verbal response, he leaned forward and pressed his lips against hers in a tender fashion. It wasn’t a lust-filled response, nor a greedy ‘you’re mine’ action as he had given her recently but it embodied the gentleness of his actions and the soft side of his feelings for her. 

He finished up his work rather quickly before sending Jo to work with Hue to finish up his works. At the end of day he picked her up from working with Hue and walked her out to her car. “See you at 7.” He said softly as he ran a large hand through her hair softly before pulling her to him and smirking down. “Don’t drive.” With a firm nod he placed a kiss on her lips before watching her drive away.

Friday arrived and the aquarium was bubbling and buzzing full of people at the black tie affair. Inside the aquarium was set up for chairs, tables and drinks along with food that would be served during the dining portion of the event. 

A sandy blonde haired man stood outside of the party dressed in a crisp black suit with a white undershirt and a black tie. His amber-golden eyes scanning the people as they walked into the aquarium and whenever he would move, the black clothing seemed to glisten with hints of gold; he wouldn’t be caught dead in all black so he did his own touch on his suit. Adjusting his cuffs he waited patiently for his date.
