Fateful Convergence

"He's quite a finicky man, if I do say so myself, although he isn't very particular about what we do as long as we can maintain the power and influence we have. Still, he can be quite strict and ruthless when he has a goal he wants to achieve and will do anything in his power to achieve it. You can say that he's used to having whatever he wants, whenever he wants, and by any means necessary" Arlia replied, keeping her voice slightly hushed in case anyone from Crey or Medicis were listening to them. "Still, aside from that, there is nothing interesting I could share with you, unfortunately. The life of a mafioso can be a tad dull at times." Chuckling softly, she turned to Nigel and asked, "What about you? Has anything of note occurred to you over the past few days?"

Fateful Convergence

Arlia: *Is in Nigel's own world* Oh, that sounds lovely~! I would be more than happy to come along.

Hayley: Right... *Blushes and looked away from Isaac sheepishly*

Eryn: I-I love you too, Sean... but would you kindly ease up a bit...? *Gently taps his arm*

Alexis: Your idea of a 'romantic getaway' appears to be quite violent in nature, though it does pique my interest.

Okay, I need to sleep. See you tomorrow :)

Fateful Convergence

While Arlia desired nothing more than to be open and honest to Nigel, she felt a sense of fear that he would abandon her if she told him anything he would consider unusual or, worse, ludicrous. For the time being, she put on a calm, brave face and replied, "It has been... quite eventful, I suppose. For one, my father came for a visit not too long ago. He just came to see how the family was doing and he seemed to be quite pleased with what everyone is doing."

Fateful Convergence

Arlia: I cannot fault such a crass and unrefined man to not enjoy a bit of romanticism. Surely you are not such man, my dear. *Kisses Nigel's cheek*

Hayley: I'm really touched that you would even think of doing that... ^^

Eryn: Umm... I-I don't think I could make Sean do such a thing... I'm happy to be with him as he is now. ^^;

Alexis: Would the definition of 'being romantic' not differ from one person to another?

Fateful Convergence

Giggling softly at Nigel's compliment, Arlia replied with a curtsy, "Why thank you. I'm truly flattered, but surely this illustrious night is nowhere as captivating as you are, good sir." Over the last few days, Arlia began to experience strange symptoms whenever she thought of him, such as increased heartbeat rate, the slight rise in temperature of her face, and her wandering thoughts about the silver-haired man whose personality, charm, and charisma infatuated her. After reconciling with the fact that she had began to think of him more than just a professional partner, she had decided to hide this from the rest of the family out of fear that they would take this glimmer of joy and hope away from her. "Well then. We have a lovely night to ourselves tonight. Shall we?" Arlia offered one hand to him, on her face a sweet, if not somewhat shy, smile unaltered by any pretense.

Fateful Convergence

Arlia: *Gently wraps her arms around one of Nigel's arms* Come now, Nigel. Don't step down to his level.

Hayley: I wouldn't say that a romantic taste is necessarily a bad thing. I'm just not terribly fond of it, but it's nice every now and then.

Fateful Convergence

Approaching the location of the man in black in the park was a woman, dressed in a simple white, backless halter top with red knitted waistband, along with matching accessories and a pair of white wedge-heeled sandals. The woman had long, blonde hair tied in a low ponytail and something about the hair seemed odd if one were to look very, very closely as if it was covering something underneath, but to the eyes of an average joe, nothing seemed to be amiss about it. Her green eyes scanned around for someone in particular, but when she was unable to visually identify this person, she searched with a different method and somehow managed to home in on the man in black. "Buonasera," she said to him, her voice kept low and unassuming, but loud enough for him to hear her.

Fateful Convergence

Oooh, how romantic~! :D

Fateful Convergence

Oh! Oh! What is it? :D

Fateful Convergence

We could. That would allow Nigel to have a glimpse of Arlia without her 'Mafia mask'. :3
