INTERACTIONS : Aria - @KatKook
MENTIONS :




Lilith wasn't sure if she was relieved or surprised or... she didn't even know. Aria had listened carefully and without judgment, as Lilith had explained her for as a dancer/stripper. She was glad, really glad that Aria hadn't pulled away when she told her about her ex either. It only made her like Aria a lot more. Lilith's mind kept racing just as her mouth kept moving and explaining all of her work to Aria, then it was over. She had told Aria, and she hadn't run away as some had in the past.

When Aria moved closer and began to talk, Lilith's heart skipped a bit. She couldn't help but to smile a bit and lean in closer when she felt the other girl's hand over her own. Then Aria said something that made Lilith's face almost match the pink of her hair. Holy shit, when had this girl become so smooth? Lilith couldn't help but to laugh a bit and look down briefly before the other continued.

"We are some fucked up people." Lilith said quietly just as Aria began to lean in closer and closer to her. She wanted to ask Aria about some of the stuff she had mentioned, but Lilith had her own shit she felt pretty guilty about. Probably best to not talk about that during the first date.

And then Aria kissed her. Lilith was expecting it by the way Aria had leaned in, but she was still taken by surprise. Lilith kissed back and moved her free hand to Aria's arm. By the time both of them pulled back, Lilith's face was the same shade of her hair. She smiled at the other girl just as Aria stood up and began to freak out.

"Hey," Lilith laughed a bit as she stood up too and pulled Aria closer to brush her hair out of her forehead. "I liked it; you don't have to apologize for kissing me." She gave Aria another smile and leaned in to kiss her cheek. "Besides, we are going to a second date, right? Kissing on the first date is totally fine with me."

Lilith pulled Aria back down on the bench and offered her the lighter again, "Want to smoke a bit more and head over to your studio?" Lilith was pretty full already, and the smell of constant food was starting to make her head hurt a bit. Some alone time with Aria didn't sound bad either, and she really wanted to see that studio of hers.

A few moments before Lilith and Aria had taken their seats in the benches; a couple walked over to them to ask them about their fried Oreos. Lilith had smiled at the girl and complimented her hair before pointing back to the direction they had come from.

"It's a big stand with a bunch of people lined up, they got an American flag on it, and it smells like fried anything." Lilith had said with a friendly smile, "You can't miss it. After that, she waved them off and kept walking to the benches with Aria.

And now, Lilith had taken a cigarette from Aria's box and slipped it between her lips. She had tasted the basic Marlboro before but never the Gold. Lilith was a bit picky with her smokes, which is why she only smoked two types. Then again, today was about trying new things, and Aria had good tastes. After getting her lighter back, she lit the cigarette and took a small puff like she was tasting it first. After another short puff, Lilith nodded and took a deeper puff before blowing out the smoke away from their faces.

"Not bad, I like them." Lilith smiled as she tucked back the lighter into her bra and leaned in closer to Aria. She had to pull back a bit to let Aria give her the non-existant sweater. Lilith laughed a bit and leaned back in as she took another long drag from her Marlboro. "Don't worry, a smoke will warm me right up."

Lilith didn't say much for a minute or two. She just sat there enjoying the warmth of Aria's body next to her and the nicotine filling her lungs. She felt so calm for just those few minutes that when their little conversation about work came back into her mind, she closed her eyes and tried not to groan.

Right. That.

"So, um, I like you." Lilith started as she leaned back a bit and looked at Aria with a smile. "Like, you're cute but also pleasant to be around, and I would like to go on a date again." This was the part where they either ran away, stayed until the sex came, or they actually stayed for Lilith. "I have this rule to tell people what I do at work. Because my work is kinda... uh, not complicated, but people might not like it. I don't get why." Lilith was stalling but she had already said too much to go back and tell Aria to forget about it.

"I'm a dancer, or stripper, or whatever." Lilith took a long drag from her cigarette and looked away briefly to give herself a break. "I dance in this high-end club by Central Point. And... yeah. I just wanted to tell youbecauselikemyexgotreallyfreakedwhenhefoundoutaboutitandhebrokemywindownaditwasbad--" Lilith took a breath and tried to calm herself. Fuck, she was the nervous one now. "I just wanted to let you know before, you know, a second date or something like that."

Lilith felt like a complete idiot now. Oh gosh. She had to look away and take various puffs to calm herself. She just hoped Aria didn't run away. She rellly did like Aria.

Lilith laughed when Aria mentioned about bitching about life. Wasn't that a mood. Lilith could go hours about life and still have days left to bitch some more. Of course, she'd have to tell Aria about her college years, but Lilith didn't think talking about hard rugs, and unwanted pregnancies were something you brought up on the first date. She could always talk about those times at work... Ah right. Work. If Lilith wanted a second date with Aria, she would have to tell her about her work. Ah, that sucked.

As they started to make their way to the smoking area, Lilith noticed a woman with long black hair and cute glasses waved over at them. She didn't recognize her, so when Aria waved back, she hummed softly and smiled at the woman. "She's cute, love her glasses. What can I say? Extroverts, we are pretty scary." She gave Aria a grin and pressed herself closer as the heat from the food stands was left behind and made their way to the smoking area.

"I should have checked the weather. I would have worn something warmer." Lilith said, mostly to herself, as she took a seat next to Aria and huddled closer for some warmth. When Aria mentioned a lighter, Lilith dug into her bra and pulled out a stainless steel lighter and handed it to Aria. It had the letters T. C. engraved on the front, and in the back it had "Vivere Senza Rimpianti" in smaller font.

"What do you usually smoke?" Lilith pulled her bag on her lap and pulled out a box of Newport Smooth Menthols. "I dunno, I like the taste of these, and they smell kinda good." They had been the same brand. Her father would sometimes smoke when he couldn't buy Fortuna from Spain. Lilith had tried those, but the taste had been too strong for her, so she had settled with Newport in the end. "My dad used to smoke these when I was a kid. I mean, he would do it outside while we were supposed to be in bed, but I usually stayed up until he came back in." She had to make sure that her father wouldn't leave as her mother had. She gave Aria a small, sad smile as she put back the box. "I'll try yours today."

Mara watched the woman leave with narrowed eyes and furrowed brows. She was upset, angry, furious about this whole mess. Shannon meant trouble. That woman shouldn't be trusted at all. And to top it all off, she had eyes on their little shop. That bitch! With an angry sigh, Mara took Shannon's seat and looked at Alejandro dead in the eyes. "What.The.Fuck."

Alejandro looked back at her, smile still on his lips as he reached over and took Mara's hand into his. "Mara, I love you. You're my family, but during these situations, you have to stay calm. I know how passionate you are about this, but you need composure." He looked back at her as if warning her that she had made a mistake. She had. She had shown Shannon the amount of freedom he gave his associates and how easy it was for one of them to become emotional and irrational. Alejandro didn't blame Mara. She was family, and her family had been insulted.

"Really?! After all that, you're telling me to calm down? She has eyes on our place! She knew more about you and then about this Nikki-- what if it's a trap?!" Mara wanted to pull her hand away but instead remained still, took a deep breath, and closed her eyes. "Fine..."

"I get your concern, but..." Alejandro looked at John with a smile, "It felt like I was in some thriller movie! All the plot twist!" He laughed loudly, a few people around them looking back to give Alejandro strange glances. "Oh man, this one is gonna be fun. I tell you. Shannon, I mean, god, she was great. That whole looking over her shoulder and getting the last word--" Alejandro had to stop to take a deep breath.

"I don't know how you are laughing, this is serious Alejandro! What if it is a trap and she's working with Nikki?!" Mara glanced at John for some help, "What about you? Don't you have something to say?"

"We found out more things about this woman and Nikki. I'll have to do more research." John said without looking at Mara in the face. She was right. Alejandro was taking all of this so lightly. It could be a trap, and all he was doing was laughing.

Alejandro wiped the tears from his the corner of his eyes before he spoke again. "I don't have to explain myself to you guys, but I will. I due time." Alejandro took the non-alcoholic michelada again and took a long sip from it. "Just know that I know what I am doing, I know what she wants, and I know what will be the end result. It's always the same at the end of the day. The person with the most allies always wins. The one who thinks he has everything in control just comes crumbling down, and a few pieces end up falling on him." Alejandro stood up and motioned them to follow. "It never changes."

"Okay..." Mara sounded unsure, but she trusted Alejandro. She followed close behind John and Alejandro this time as they got to the SUV. "I'm not gonna repeat this, but it was kinda cool how she got the last word."

"I know right?! I wonder if she watches or reads lots of thriller stuff." Alejandro got in the passenger's seat as John rolled his eyes and climbed into the driver's side.

"You two are idiots." John said as he began to drive back to Alejandro's pen house.

Lilith smiled at the mention of a smoke and gave Aria a quick nod. She differently needed something to keep her from reaching into her purse and get her little fix. The sweetness of the Oreo also helped. The sugar rush would help her to hold herself until the smoke. She could also offer the blunt she had in her purse since Aria had mentioned she smoked weed, too, although she could wait until they were in the studio for that. Music and weed always seemed to go well together, for her anyway.

"Do you want to go get that cereal with shaved milk, or ice cream and head for the lot?" Lilith had already finished her friend Oreo. They could also talk a bit and get to know each other while they eat and shared a smoke. It seemed very casual, but Lilith was glad that she wouldn't hear the risks of smoking from Aria since they both smoked. Gosh, he ex had made a huge deal about her smoking. They hadn't lasted long, and he had been an asshole when she had broke it off with him.

Lilith did not miss that man. He still texted her sometimes at random to tell her he missed her and she was getting tired of it now. It had been almost four months now, and it seemed like he was not going to give up anytime soon.

When Aria was done with her friend Oreo, Lilith slipped her arm back around the other girl's and led the way back to the stand Aria had mentioned before. "Do you still want to get something from here? We can find something else before we head to the lot. I think there's a smoking area with benches and take a seat there for a bit." Lilith's feet were starting to ache. She had stood quite a while yesterday while taking to the police with her heels on and she could feel the painful result now. "We could get something else if you like."


















Hopefully I fixed the headers, if not I'll have to wait until tomorrow.

Was Lilith too much for Aria? She could tell how much the shorter girl kept looking away, and her voice would cut short, or she would trip over her sentences. Lilith didn't want to make Aria feel uncomfortable around her, but gosh did Aria look cute when she got flustered. It just made her want to compliment Aria more and more and see those lovely cheeks of her turn red. How she would love to see other parts of her--

Lilith cleared her throat and shook those thoughts away. This was the first date. First date only and nothing more. "Sure, I sometimes go for those too, but after dancing all night, you need some junk food to get you back up. A blunt does sound nice right now." Maybe they could get some edibles next time and just go out to eat again or wander the beach. Getting high on the beach sounded fun.

"Don't like clubs, huh? They're not for everyone." Lilith understood that. She was the outgoing type that loved to just dance with random strangers and sometimes hook up with them, but all of that only happened a few times a year. The last time she had gone, clubbing was about two months ago, and she had gotten lucky to score some Instagram model. The model had taken Lilith to see her fancy apartment by Central Point and had some fun in her jacuzzi. The night had been fun, but Lilith didn't even remember her name, and she was sure the model had forgotten Lilith's too.

Today was just a regular date with a nice girl that Lilith kept wanting to compliment just to see her flustered face. At least, that was what she thought until Aria invited her over. To her studio. The offer had taken Lilith by surprise that she didn't even notice it was their turn to order.

"Hello? Lady?" The teen behind the table with a cash register said. "Are you gonna order?"

"Oh! Lilith laughed nervously as she slipped out her wallet and pulled out her card. "Sorry, uh, two fried Oreos with powdered sugar." She gave the younger girl her card and waited for the payment to transfer. A second later, they were both handed each a fried Oreo.

"Sure, I'll go over to your studio." Lilith finally said with a smile. Aria's question had taken her back, but it had been a pleasant surprise. They would be able to have some time just to talk. With another smile, she bit into her Oreo. They could also share a blunt. Lilith had one hidden in her new purse.
