fast eddie's | early evening | saturday | december 19
Even though Alex's break week had started back on Wednesday, it still felt like it was official once the weekend started. To celebrate, he'd slept late, eaten something unhealthy for breakfast and lazed away the hours (all the while thankfully avoiding any mistletoe while Griff was in the room) until he actually realized he had something planned.
So, having already downed half his beer (he was celebrating, after all), Alex was leaning over the pool table and lining up a shot. It was easy enough but his concentration was off or the table was tilted or something and he flubbed the shot, shaking the cue ball off the side.
That just meant he ended up cursing under his breath and deciding that downing the rest of his beer was a good way to make himself feel better. He had great coping skills.
[possibly expecting someone but open place in town is open]

For once, Effy was actually all layered up and somewhat dressed for the weather. Right up to a scarf around her neck and gloves that she was tucking into the pockets of her usual leather jacket as she made her way towards him. Look, there was snow, and she did know how not to freeze completely. Really!

Pushing off the table, he wandered a little closer and said, "You, on the other hand, look like you're expecting a blizzard."
no subject
Rain and plain old miserable grey days? Oh yeah. Lots. Snow was a bit of a rarity, and winters over here were definitely that step more severe.

But then again, right at this moment, he was being a bit of an obstacle, sneaking in to hold onto her scarf.
no subject
No, she didn't but like he cared about that. It was fun to tease. "Or maybe you just look out of your element."

"You do," he said, nodding and keeping his hold on her scarf. "A very British teddy bear. It's a good look for you. Very...cute as a button."
no subject
Pretty sure he did.
no subject
"I know that," he confirmed, shrugging easily. "It just makes me more attractive, I think. After all, who can resist all this annoyance in such a pretty package?'
Pretty sure she couldn't. At least, he liked to think not.
no subject
"Sure you'll find one eventually." ... Okay, maybe there had been some admission, if not outright, in there.
no subject
"Maybe I have." He gave that scarf another tug. "Have I?"

"Want me to get you something to drink?" he asked, reaching for his almost empty bottle. "Or want the rest of mine?
He was so polite and giving. Holiday season and all.
no subject
"Could go for a JD and coke, though." A little more girly, she'd admit, but beer had never been her drink of choice.
no subject
"But, I'll be nice and go get the drinks anyway," he said, handing her his pool cue before brushing past her and towards the snack area.
"See if I can't get them to add an umbrella to yours," he threw over his shoulder with a laugh.
[no worries! i was in bed soon thereafter! sleep is good!]
no subject
She shook her head, taking the cue to entertain herself with a shot or two while he was gone. If she was going to play, might as well get a warm up in. Wouldn't do to jump straight in while he was there, just in case.
no subject
"That afraid of losing?" he asked when he came upon the practicing. "Must think you're really gonna get spanked."
Sort of dirty. Sort of.
no subject
"Sweet," she remarked, spinning that umbrella idly. "Do follow orders well, don't you?"
no subject
"When I want to," he said, taking a few drinks from his bottle and shrugging. "Why? Think you could use that to your advantage?"
no subject
no subject
He settled his bottle so he could rack the balls before leaning his elbows on the table and peering across at her. "Wanna play for stakes or wanna play for fun?"
