Caritas - Open [8/10]

Veronica arrived at work, grateful that the temperatures had cooled off considerably from the previous week.

She checked the Zombie Band and got everything ready to open, all the while thinking about a going away gift for Weevil.

Veronica smiled. "How did I get so lucky?"

"I ask myself the same question." Archie leaned over the bar and kissed her cheek again.

"What are you drinking tonight?" she asked, still smiling.

Re: The Bar [8/10]

"Rum and Coke," Archie said promptly. He'd been thinking about this all day, for some reason. "As long as I get my umbrella," he added teasingly.

Veronica raised an eyebrow. "Well, I don't know if you deserve an umbrella today," she teased.

Re: The Bar [8/10]

Archie pouted at her. "What on earth did I do to deserve such a demerit?"

"You're cute when you pout," Veronica replied, fixing his drink and adding an umbrella.

Archie allowed himself a self-satisfied but playful smirk. "My cunning plan worked. Perhaps I have a future as a privateer after all."

Re: The Bar [8/10]

Veronica chuckled. "Or doing undercover detective work."

Re: The Bar [8/10]

"Are you saying you want me to go into business with you?" Archie asked, quirking an amused eyebrow at her. "That's quite the commitment."

"Maybe I was suggesting you move to LA and work with Angel," she said. Then she stopped to think about Archie working with Angel and Logan and nearly broke her brain.

"Or, you know, working with me and my dad."

Re: The Bar [8/10]

Archie thought about himself doing detective work and started to laugh, only to break off and consider it seriously. "Would you ever handle cases involving boats?"

Re: The Bar [8/10]

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"I don't know," Veronica admitted. "Anything's possible."

Re: The Bar [8/10]

"There you go tempting me again." Archie chuckled and gave her an affectionate smile.

Re: The Bar [8/10]

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"Who me?" she asked, affecting an innocent air. "I would never!"

Re: The Bar [8/10]

[actingltcrumpet.livejournal.com]

"Never dream of not tempting me, you mean," Archie retorted with a grin.

Re: The Bar [8/10]

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"And you love it," Veronica said with a smug look.

Re: The Bar [8/10]

[actingltcrumpet.livejournal.com]

"Every damn minute of it."

Re: The Bar [8/10]

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Veronica grinned. "You staying with me tonight?" she asked.

Re: The Bar [8/10]

[actingltcrumpet.livejournal.com]

"Not if you don't want me to," Archie told her.

Re: The Bar [8/10]

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"Why wouldn't I want you to?" Veronica gave him a confused look.

Re: The Bar [8/10]

[actingltcrumpet.livejournal.com]

Archie grinned. "My point exactly."

Re: The Bar [8/10]

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Veronica shook her head. "You tease me just as much as I tease you."

Re: The Bar [8/10]

[actingltcrumpet.livejournal.com]

"It's only fair," Archie pointed out. "Besides, it makes you smile."

Re: The Bar [8/10]

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"You always make me smile," Veronica said.
