Your Wagon's Been Hitched To A Star

[notsoyoung.livejournal.com]

David walks into the bar, though no one could say from where if they were asked, and makes himself comfortable in a booth after picking up some food from the cart.

He looks as though he hasn't slept, which he hasn't really, and he's also wearing yesterday's clothes.

And he looks troubled.

Ember comes out of the kitchen, smiling. Her smiles fades when she sees David. She walks up to him, placing a hand on his arm.

"David? Are you okay?"

[notsoyoung.livejournal.com]

*he looks up as he feels the hand on his arm. There are dark circles under his eyes that wouldn't be there if he were a vampire*

Hullo, Ember. *he sighs* I'm not entirely sure, actually.

And I'm not sure... not sure if I can say what it is...

[ember_eleven]

Ember sits down next to him and takes his hand in both of hers.

"Did something happen last night? After I left?"

[notsoyoung.livejournal.com]

*he nods his head, not trusting words*

I did a bad thing, Ember...

[ember_eleven]

"What did you do?"

She squeezes his hand, reassuringly.

[notsoyoung.livejournal.com]

I can't... *his voice shakes* I can't say. But it was... I've broken it again, I know I have. He's never going to trust me again after last night...

If he finds out. If he doesn't find out, then that's different, that's...

*he clunks his head down onto the table*

That's not much better.

[ember_eleven]

Ember runs a hand through his hair.

David, please tell me. You can trust me. I don't like seeing you in pain.

[notsoyoung.livejournal.com]

*he looks into her eyes, terror-stricken*

Charlie and I... last night...

If Bartleby finds out, I lose his trust...

If Charlie...

I'm so confused, Ember...

Gil pauses to say 'hello' on his way back to the kitchen, then his nostrils twitch and he frowns. David smells desperately unhappy again.

Gil moves closer - not in an attempt to overhear - but to be there should he be needed and looks on with concern.

[notsoyoung.livejournal.com]

*David sees Gil out of the corner of his eye*

Gil, good afternoon! Join us, won't you?

[gil-whimple.livejournal.com]

Gil looks from one to the other of them. "Are you sure? I just thought you looked a bit sad and was worried, but with Ember cheering you up..." He smiles at her and slips into a seat a little to one side. "I just heard something about Charlie and Bartleby and - um..." His voice dies away and he goes a bit pink.

[ember_eleven]

Ember smiles. "You can join us, if David doesn't mind." She points to the seat across from David.

[notsoyoung.livejournal.com]

*he shakes his head* I don't mind at all.

*he looks to Gil* Thank you for your concern. We were just discussing how I managed to screw things up.

Yet again.

*he gestures to the seat*

[gil-whimple.livejournal.com]

Gil moves into the seat they have indicated and tilts his head.

"I'm so sorry you're worried, David, but Ember's suggestion seemed quite practical to me," he shrugs, "though I'm not perhaps the best judge."

[notsoyoung.livejournal.com]

It would be a good suggestion if mortals were able to comprehend it properly. But... *he sighs* I'm fiercely protective. I can't help it.

I'm not...

I don't think it would work...

[ember_eleven]

Ember reaches over with her free hand and takes Gil's hand.

"See? Someone agrees with me."

[notsoyoung.livejournal.com]

*he smiles at them both*

I'm not disagreeing with you, dear. Just...

Things are slightly more complicated than that.

[ooc: if i was to give david a hint? i'd say wait until after bartleby finds out about him sleeping with charlie again. because shagging could quite easily happen then.

however, if you want to make your interest clear beforehand for maximum angst, go for it. :D

i don't think this is going to end happily though.]

[notsoyoung.livejournal.com]

[OOC: There's no way in hell it can, is there? Unless it does.]

[watch-wait.livejournal.com]

[ooc: there's always that. :D but they're both fixed on charlie, not on each other at all, so jeaousy and inequality in the threesome would be bound to happen, and bartleby's the way possessive type. plus, he's not actually in love with charlie yet, and he only barely just likes david, so he'd be very likely to jump ship. *sigh*

my character has too many issues.]

[notsoyoung.livejournal.com]

[OOC: Issues make the world go 'round.

So. Smut. Tomorrow night good for you? *grin* I've got to go to my bed now, after all. *sighs* Damn work]

[watch-wait.livejournal.com]

[ooc: i'll have school on monday! *wails* let's just see how it plats out. there are things to be got through yet.

and i'm still not sure how angrily b will respond to the c/d revelation, and therefore how angry he'll be with d and how likely to shag him. if you see what i mean. :D]

[notsoyoung.livejournal.com]

[OOC: If it made any less sense, it'd be divine law. S'all I'm saying]

[watch-wait.livejournal.com]

[ooc: 'plats'? wtf was i trying to say? 'pans'? 'plots'? 'falls'? *headdesk*

basically: i am making everything up as i go along, and cannot therefore firmly agree to anything. :D]

[notsoyoung.livejournal.com]

[OOC: that's quite okay :) I didn't even notice until you pointed it out.

And yeah, plot seems something we can't stick to lately. *shrug*]
