The Perk, Sunday Evening

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

John wasn't nervous. He and Prue were just hanging out and getting some coffee.

"We have arrived! After you," John held the door open for Prue.

[ooc: For Prue, but The Perk is open for your beverage needs.]

Prue laughed. "That's one of my favorite things to do."

"You know, I think I'll go old school on this." she said. "Just a cup of the strongest stuff they got."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"Good choice, I'll be right back." He went and got two cups of the strongest blend and returned triumphantly to the table.

"Here we are," he said pushing a cup toward Prue. "Watch out, the barista said this stuff'll put hair on our chests."

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"Thank you." she looked down at the cup warily and then looked back up at John. "I think I'm willing to take the risk."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"Hey, I'm just passing along the message. I think they're afraid of lawsuits," he said with a grin.

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"Now that'd be an interesting case to see." she said. She picked up her cup and was about to take a sip before sitting it down again. "On second thought, you better go first."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

John laughed and took a wary sip from his cup. He paused, holding the liquid in his mouth and looking perplexed for a moment before swallowing. "It tastes like...like coffee! Good coffee at that," he said taking another sip of the hot liquid.

"So it'll be worth the extra hair growth? Awesome!" said Prue, winking. She took a sip of her own coffee. "That's pretty good. I can see how everyone here is a fan."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, I can see myself spending more time here," he drank more of his coffee.

John pulled at the neckline of his t-shirt, "Do you see more hair here than before? It's a little itchy all of a sudden.

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

Prue smirked and leaned in to inspect. "Hmmm, there might be a little more growth there. But you probably won't really be sure until tomorrow when you wake up looking like a werewolf."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"I'll come downstairs and show you when I do," he smirked.

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"Well, it's a good thing my roommate is away otherwise I'd have some explaining to do when a wolf-man shows up at our door." said Prue.

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"Aww, that takes away part of the fun! Who's your roommate, anyway?" John asked.

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"Vi Hewson. Tiny. Short red hair." said Prue. "She's nice but I don't know that much about her. I mean, I didn't even get to tell her about the whole witch thing yet."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

John shrugged, "I don't know her either, but then, I never met almost half of my cabin when we were out at the camp."

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"I didn't either." said Prue. "I was too busy with family stuff. Meeting my nephews and dealing with my sister's boyfriends."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"That's an interesting one, having nephews going to the same high school as you," he said.

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, that whole time travel stuff is crazy." she said. "I kind of wished I could have seen the look on my sister's face when her sons from the future showed up here."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"She was here at the same time as her own kids? That's just too bizarre!" he said, hoping he didn't end up being related to anyone he'd met so far.

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"Oh I've got weirder for you. I'm the oldest of my sisters but when I got here Piper and Phoebe had already graduated." she said. "And Phoebe's one of my teachers."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"Wow!" he said, a little dazed. "That must've been a lot for you to handle when you arrived."

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

Prue had already known about her nephews when she had arrived but the Phoebe thing had definitely thrown her for a loop. "Yeah, it was weird. But sadly, I think some people have had weirder family things happen here."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"Well, I did have doubles living in my side of the cabin. That was pretty weird my first day here," John added.

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"Doubles?" asked Prue. "What's that?"

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"Ah! Have you met Dean or Alec? They look like twins but they're not related in any way," he explained.

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"Wow. Alec's in cheerleading with me but I've never met Dean." she said. "I could have, I guess. And just mistaken him for Alec."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"They're easy-going guys, I liked rooming with them," he said. "So you're a cheerleader? You should come cheer for flag football sometime.

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"I should. But which team should I cheer for?" she teased.

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"Well, I'm captain of the Gold Team, so you should probably cheer for the Blue Team if you want to make me totally crazy," he said.

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"I do love making guys crazy." said Prue, grinning.

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"I thought you might," he said. "Come by next Sunday morning. You might get to see me get my ass kicked. Or at least get totally distracted when I see you arrive."

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"A chance to distract you and possibly seeing you get your ass kicked?" she says. "I'm so there."

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

He grinned, "Cool! That's something to look forward to."

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

Prue looked down at the table and smiled. John was real cute.

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"You know what else I look forward to?" he asked.

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"What?" she replied.

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"Figuring out how to make you smile like that all the time," he grinned down into his cup.

[witchy-prue.livejournal.com]

"I think you're doing a pretty good job of it so far." said Prue, smiling again.

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

"I guess I'll have to keep doing what I have been, then," he said.
