Wow..and stuff...

Jason RAVVK5 (1:47:58 AM): ::she'd find it quite a thrill to be back in London, especially considering she knew the Queen and would be staying in Buckingham Palace. she had followed up on the Queen's offer for tea before the campaign had begun, so the two were well acquainted. she'd even taken a trip out into the city - in disguise, with Haru not too far behind - to visit the woman she and Seth had stayed with when they had come to London. needless to say, she was quite cheerful as she returned to her room. Haru was the only one travelling with her now, Li having returned home after Beijing. just about every night, she called him as well as Rhia and Rhayvin, that whole household watching each of her talks on tv no matter what time it was on. it was worth it, too, because no two talks were the same. since they were being broadcasted all over the world, she thought it would be pointless to make the same speech every time. and so, she'd talk about something else each time. she'd be dressed in the clothes Seth had gotten her when they were last in London, as she'd just come in off the streets, that leather trenchcoat bringing back quite a few memories, as well as the driver's cap low over her eyes. she'd slip into her room, shutting the door behind her, pleased smile on her lips::

nelmorr13 (1:53:00 AM): Well, well, well....don't you just look tickled pink. ::he'd be smirking as he sat on the sofa in her room, arms spread across the back of it. he had visited her at least once during each of her stops on the tour and even a few times in between.::

Jason RAVVK5 (1:55:30 AM): ::when she looked over at him, her smile would lift a bit more, she pulling that cap off and letting her hair fall out of it and down her back, shaking it out some, there still the faint hint of the curls she'd had as a child:: What can I say? Things have been running smoothly, I'm in a place I recognize, being welcomed by a wonderfully nice woman, and for the first time these past three months, I'm not the least bit tired. ::she'd set the cap on the desk, slipping the coat off and resting it over the back of the chair::

nelmorr13 (2:00:09 AM): Is that so? Well what a coincidence. Because I....::he'd hold his empty hand out, putting on an impromtu magic show as a pair of tickets appeared:: have tickets to The Tube. London's premiere night club.

Jason RAVVK5 (2:01:40 AM): ::she'd glance over, opening her mouth as if she were about to accept. but she'd stop herself, laughing lightly:: Almost. ::that is, "You almost had me":: But no thanks.

nelmorr13 (2:05:03 AM): Oh come oon! You know you wanna. I can see it in your eyes. ::he smirked over to her as he leaned forward, his gaze penetrating like he can see through her clothes and through into her soul...which wasn't unlikely considering his parentage.::

Jason RAVVK5 (2:07:03 AM): Of course I want to. I've wanted to every time you offered. But it's not about what I want. None of this is about what I want. It's about what is right. What if one person, just one, were to recognize me? I can see it now, headlines all across the world: "Negotiator, caught in night club rave with man other than her fiancee." I don't think so. ::she was smiling all the while as she watched him::

nelmorr13 (2:10:19 AM): Then let me make it so that they don't recognize you. ::he definitely picked up the tricks of the trade well from his father. he knew what to offer to the right people.::

Jason RAVVK5 (2:12:58 AM): ::she sighed, but didn't seem too upset:: That isn't the point, and you know it. What if they were to discover I was gone? What if someone needed to get ahold of me, and I wasn't here to handle it? If you want to dance so bad.. ::she leaned back against the desk, hands behind her, ankles crossed, head tilted, so that she looked rather sexy, especially in the tight-fitting clothes she'd been wearing under the trench coat:: ..we could do it right here.

nelmorr13 (2:16:04 AM): ::he'd quirk a single brow at her for a moment before that smirk grew. the tickets go up in smoke as he rises to his feet.:: Very well then. ::he cracks his knuckles as he looks around the room for a moment.::

Jason RAVVK5 (2:17:11 AM): ::she smiled some, watching him. so she was in a playful mood...it couldn't hurt, right? she had a sound head on her shoulders...she knew what she was doing. definitely...::

nelmorr13 (2:20:06 AM): ::he waved a hand and all the shutters and curtains to the windows shut, sending the room into almost complete darkness. pointing to the ceiling, what looked like a multi-colored disco ball would appear, except it floated in midair. the room would no longer look like it did before, everything pretty much gone. the desk she'd been leaning against was now a bar.::

Jason RAVVK5 (2:21:26 AM): ::she'd glance up at the ball, then behind her at the bar, smile growing just faintly. it was a nice touch. as she pushed away from the bar, hands clasped behind her back as she walked towards him, she'd speak up:: Now all we need is some music.

nelmorr13 (2:25:31 AM): ::he'd still have that smirk on his face as he lifted a hand.:: Oh, it's covered. ::with the snap of a finger, the song would start with violins before a hot beat joined in with some synthesizers. the bass was strong enough that it pulsated through them. if Zelda had any of that hot Drow blood in her where it came to dancing, it'd have a strong effect.::

Jason RAVVK5 (2:28:26 AM): ::oh, she had it alright. the time she'd spent with Kalvin and Jason when she was younger, they'd taught her a thing or two about dancing, as had Rhia and Seth at other times. J might find himself quite impressed with how she could move. while most humans only looked like they were kind of jiggling in some vague rhythm supposedly to the song, with Zelda it would actually seem as though she were telling the song, or rather a story within the song. she'd be coming quite close to him as well, distractingly close at times, every so often her eyes darting up to meet his::

nelmorr13 (2:31:34 AM): ::not one to be left out of his own party, he'd come towards her as well. soon, he'd have one arm about her waist, holding her rather close as their bodies moved in unison to the heartbeat of the music. did Li ever dance with her like this? did they share this kind of.....intimacy on the dance floor?::

Jason RAVVK5 (2:34:09 AM): ::she certainly couldn't remember any time where they had. he was an alright dancer, and he never backed down when she asked, and even asked her sometimes, but..well, what human could compare with the son of the devil? she was very quickly losing herself in the music. strands of hair were plastered to her face as sweat began to trail down, definitely breathing faster as the ecstacy the music and experience created began to flood her senses::

nelmorr13 (2:36:07 AM): ::soon, as is very often the case, their the movements of their dancing became more and more sensual in nature. grinding pelvises and the heated caresses of skin and breath. it wasn't dancing anymore...it was seduction in motion::

Jason RAVVK5 (2:39:40 AM): ::just as she began to find herself falling into that trap, her sensitive hearing would pick something up under the sound of the music. her cell phone. all at once, her eyes would widen, realizing what was happening, hands moving to his chest to very quickly push herself away. she'd fall back against the bar, gasping for breath, staring at him with those same wide-eyes, tiniest bit of fear manifesting itself in her heart. what the hell had she been thinking?::

nelmorr13 (2:41:37 AM): ::he'd stumble back a little as he'd pushed her away, the music coming to and abrupt halt. as the windows were opened again, light streaming into the room. it'd be the same way as it was before. had it all been an illusion?::

Jason RAVVK5 (2:44:00 AM): ::she swallowed uneasily, hearing the phone loud and clear now. shakingly, she'd reach for it, as it sat beside her on the desk. she flipped it open and lifted it, trembling, to her ear, though her voice was as steady as ever - she'd gotten good at that:: Hello? Li...everything's fine... Yes, things are set for tomorrow. Look, would you mind if I called you back? I..I think I'm in the middle of something... ::she let the phone drift down from her ear, hitting the end call button, still staring over at J::

nelmorr13 (2:47:21 AM): ::he would be standing there, smiling calmly. the perspiration still glistens on his brow. just as eve had, Zelda had gotten a taste of forbidden fruit. how long until her temptation for more was unbearable?::

Jason RAVVK5 (2:49:00 AM): ::as she snapped the phone shut, setting it on the desk behind her, she'd speak, quietly, fear now strong in her eyes - she wasn't afraid of him...but the feelings she'd been having just moments before, feelings that lingered even now, how her heart still raced and her stomach still felt as though she'd just ridden a roller-coaster:: I think...you need to leave.

nelmorr13 (2:51:49 AM): Probably a good idea. You may want to take a shower before your next meeting. Ciao. ::before she could reply, he'd be gone, leaving her to tangle with those feelings she was having.::

Jason RAVVK5 (2:56:36 AM): ::she sank to the floor, hand lifting up over her face:: Oh, God, help me...what have I done...what evil things have I unleashed from Pandora's box? ::her hand drifted down to clutch at her chest, heart yet to settle down:: How cruel..
