malachy's fingers froze , not daring to light the joint . β what do you want to do then ? we don't have to smoke and it appears you don't want your beer . β
he was confused . why was she apologizing ? he paid no mind to the flickering channels , the colours illuminating his den .
momentarily malachy was concerned as she no longer appeared interested .
she avoided his gaze then , turning back to the tv and taking another sip of the beer she didn't even want anymore . daena chewed on the inside of her cheek β a nervous habit of hers .
she seemed to care little for the beer within her hands .
was she having second thoughts ?
β do you not want to smoke ? you don't have to . β his blue eyes flickered to her .
if she had no desire to smoke then so be it .
moments later he regretted the question .
β nevermind forget i asked . i don't want to know . β with that he shifted , pulling out a box . quickly he opened it and began to roll a joint .
never was it his intention to piss her off . not at the moment .
malachy knew what she was here for and it wasn't to be chastised . immediately he fell silent .
her eyes . " got us more alcohol , didn't i ? "
she crossed the kitchen and made herself comfy on his couch , lifting her head to look at him , beckoning him without words . she curled her legs beneath her , reaching for his controller .
in truth , he did have a problem with it . however , he'd never admit it aloud . malachy would sooner die before such .
β yeah , sure . do what you want i don't care . how often do you do it ? β he was a tad curious .
you always find a way , don't you ? β
he took the bottle , the cold glass intense against his palm .
β calm down . i'm taking it . β he went silent , slowly bringing the bottle to his lips .
he could feel the tension , thick within the room . the bottles lightly clinked every so often β drowning out his thoughts . she seemed annoyed .
malachy scratched at his chin , his facial hair brushing against his fingers .
β you ruin my counter and you pay for it . β the story brought forth a wave of anger . daena was a rather lovely woman and men tended to notice .
β i'm impressed , although not shocked you batted your lashes .
@mngetout all you have to do is ask . β
malachy shoved his hands into the pockets of his jacket .
they had been friends for a while . he couldn't even recall how long exactly , but he did like her presence .
