Jeff wasn’t quite sure what Hope was on about until she spilled the drink on herself and he grabbed a towel and handed it to her. That was when he took in his appearance.
“I’m glad you haven’t accepted any drinks yet, I know I’m late as well. There is a good reason.”
Her ordering him to the bathroom was complied with as he was still offering the towel for that spilled drink.
“You look great!”
Once inside the bathroom he decided he might as well tell her what he was up to tonight.
“My appearance is the direct result of me ensuring a Christmas miracle was performed. It involved a mom, a child, and the jerk-off husband who had violated a custody agreement. I made a point of ensuring the child was spending Christmas with her mom. I may have gotten a little roughed up in the process. You should see the other guys though, they will be getting coal for sure.”
He gave a laugh about that and thought some may not be getting anything but a slab in the morgue.
~*~
He drove for a bit on silence. He was not the best at sharing what was on his mind. He found it odd to be comfortable doing that with someone. He would have to do that eventually if he wanted anything that lasted with anyone. He glanced at Angie as he thought about what she had asked.
“It helps me organize my thoughts that spot. I’ve had my memories messed with so figuring out which is real and which isn’t can be a challenge. That’s all. I wasn’t trying to put you off.”
He smiled at her when she went into the ice skating. He hadn’t done that since...he couldn’t remember.
“You may have to show me again. I haven’t ice skated in a very long time. It will be fun for you to watch me fall on my rear a few times.”
He laughed as he took the turns and basically the lights of the city grew closer. He had settled into the drive and reached over and took her hand.
“You know that seeing this city grow the way it has is either my real memories or some good false ones they implanted. It’s still good though. So ice skating will be fun.”
~*~
Relina was stoked! She had played her ass off and now they were letting whoever set up. It was good to have a break and she needed a drink and a little cool down time.
“That was awesome! So fucking metal!”
She motioned for one of the waiters to bring his ass over. They were doing shots. It was decided. A shot for everyone.
“Alright! Shots of Petron for everyone in the band!”
The waiter looked surprised and nodded.

Dee's arms were thrown into the air as her new friend agreed to sleep overs. She let out a shout for joy as her grumpy uncle had made it into the bathroom. It looked like his date was a little cross with him. Not that she blamed the poor woman as it looked like he came from a mission.
"We can go nuts! There will be no rules with staying up all night partying! Just give me a few hours notice to clean up from Tippy and her buddies. Squirrels can get rather messy." She tilted her head to the side, "Who is Ember and why is she not hanging out with you as well? As long as she doesn't make too much of a mess, I guess she can come as well to the sleep overs. I like having lots of friends." ~*~*~*~
Angie's eyes flicked over to Logan as his baritone voice broke through her thoughts. She shifted in her seat slightly as he answered her questioned about the spot. A breath that she had been holding was let out as her finger stopped it's back and forth motion. A smile formed at the edges of her lips.
"We all of our own secrets to keep or share in this crazy world we live in. I didn't mean to pry, just understand more of the man versus the fighter whom I have enjoyed spending time with."
She tapped her chin as mentioned his memories were rather scrambled. A frown formed as it was no good for anyone to have happen. "Who is they and what purpose does it serve to plant false memories? If you need help, I might know a few neurologists and grad students who would be interested in helping."
She wrapped her hands around his as the conversation turned back to the activities of the evening. It seemed natural as her body shifted through the twists and turns. She smiled a little as with the image of him falling on his rear came up.
"It has always been fun watching things you now and love grow in unexpected ways. My hometown is a place I hardly recognize when I saw it last. I am guessing we are going to one of the more popular places for ice skating? Where is this nice place for dinner? I know skating will work up a good appetite." She smiled gently at him as she watched the city grow increasing larger.
*~*~*~
Remmy laughed as he pulled her in rather close. Her head rested on his shoulder as he soaked in the moment. It was the few times in which they could share a private moment. When he was with her, everything just melted all away. This was no exception, just wished that they didn't need to be so careful.
"Darling, I have a special gift of sorts for you. It will be here in a few days if you will accept it. I know it has been a struggle with getting powers under control, just promise to have an open mind. I just want you not live in fear."

Charis was happy if Dee was happy and smiled taking another drink of her beer as her new best friend explained to her some rules and information about her wonderful squirrel friends and giggled when she was told they were a bit messy.
Then Dee asked about Ember, it was an interesting situation with Ember as not only was Ember her boss but also romantically involved with her. Charis smiled back to Dee and pulled out her iPhone and opened some pictures of them together and showed her. "Ember is my boss at work...but she is also my girlfriend too. We haven't been together for too long but I know she's really nice and so far good when I bring up superhero stuff or anything related to you guys.."

Hope couldn’t help but smile to Jeff. He saved a child’s life and ensured their future would be bright. Her hand found his muddied cheek, caressing it gently “You found the one good reason to be late tonight.” She smiled before lightly kissing his cheek. Twirling around, she grabbed a wipe and began to clean up his face. “That’s the best I can do...” she sighed heavily. “I’m just glad you’re safe.” She whispered before backing away “The reason I wanted to see you tonight is because I’m leaving tomorrow for Muir. Rhona is going with as well. I just wanted to see you one last time.”
——————————
Skye laughed to a Relina “Patron?! Damn, girl!” She yelled before handing Pyro his beer “Cheers, guys! Happy Yule!” She took one her shot, grimacing as the liquid burnt her throat. She never was a fan of tequila, but it was free and her bestie bought it.
——————————
Matt wrapped his arms around Gabs, bringing her in close. Smelling her perfume. He grinned as his hands politely wandered to her waist. As the new performer began, he twirled her, bringing her into his warm body. Leaning in, his whispered into her ear “You look absolutely amazing tonight, Gabs...” he purred softly as his breath lingered along his neck.

Tavish had just finished his Scottish ale when he saw her. Like an angel floating about the crowd; her blond hair dancing as she swayed her curvy figure. Those blue eyes sparkled like moonlight and took his breath away. Shuttling past Relina, he accidentally bumped into her, whispering a quick apology before innocently racing after the blond woman.
Clearing his throat, he gently tapped the woman on the shoulder “Excuse my rather braisen approach, lass, but yere the most god damned beautiful woman I’ve eva seen. Can I get yere a drink o’ whatever ye desire?” Tavish blush slightly, though it was hard to see in the darkness.

Dee took another drink as she waited for Jeff to come out of the bathroom. He was taking his sweet time. She wanted to learn a little more about his lady friend.
Her eyes grew wide as Charis showed pictures of Ember. "She is rather pretty! Doesn't it make things rather complicated to work and date her? Wait, you are a hero? What is your hero name? What are your powers? I have so many questions right now." ~*~*~
Krys had given up all hope. The band was nice, with the drummer as her favorite. She was just tired of being here as the distraction didn't come. She shrugged on her jacket as the next artist came on. She sighed after her tap was paid when she felt a tap on her shoulder. Her eyes grew wide as it was the drummer right behind her.
Her cheeks warmed at his approach. It was hardly what she was expecting. To salvage this night, he would be well worth the company for awhile. She took off her jacket again. "Sure, I can take another cider. You saved me from a rather dull evening. Loved the drumming by the way."

Charis smiled at her furry friend. "Well not sure yet but if something comes up then it comes up and we both understand that. Also, yes I am one, and I have told you my name, honey, Charis...I'll tell you my real one later ok?"
Charis then looked where Dee was and wanted to help her, "Want me to check on them, love?"

Rouge nodded to Remy. He had a surprise for her? This was going to be interesting. She smiled at him and nuzzled his coat "I don't want to live in fear of hurting you either...if you think this will help well I will gladly keep my mind open. What were you thinking?" She said continuing to dance with him and enjoy the moment

Gabriella couldn't help but feel her skin get a little warm and flush at the way Matt said how amazing she looked that night. "Th-thank you Matt. You don't look so bad yourself" She replied trying to play it cool. She didn't want him to know he was getting to her, espcilly if he was just seeing her as anohter pretty face. She knew she shouldn't feel this way...he was a playboy. Wasn't he? But at least now at least she could enjoy this moment where the rest of the women would be jealous of her. She twirled a little and smiled as she resigned herself to have fun and even as the music changed she stayed dancing with him. If nothing else she could have this moment...

Pyro took his beer and look to Skye and Relina and lifted his beer "Cheers!" He said as he drank it. He waited for Skye to have a free moment so he could take her to the dancefloor. It was packed there on the dancefloor and in the bar. The music was nice and a good change of pace.

Matt twirled her one more time before the music ended. Leaning in to kiss her cheek, he grinned sweetly “That’s the only thing I wanted tonight. Thanks for making it a possibility, Blondie.” He winked, slowly backing away. “If you need anything, just let me know.” He whispered into her ear as he turned around “Door ain’t gonna watch itself... I miss you, Gabs.”

**Tavish is actually the bassist, heehe!**
Tavish’s smile could be seen from the moon as Krys spoken to him. That blonde hair, blue eyes, and her gorgeous stature was enough to send him to space. “One cider comin’ up!” He slapped the bar giving his megawatt smile and retrieved the beverage quickly. It helped that it was free due to his presence in the band.
Handing it swiftly to her, he grinned again “Thanks, lass! Been playin’ ever since I was a kid in Glasgow. It kept me out of trouble most days.” He winked playfully “If you can forgive my bluntness, lass, but you’re the most godamned beautiful woman I’ve ever seen...” he admitted finally “ya looked like ya were ready to head out and I just wanted to tell ya that.” He smiled sheepishly.

Hope listened as she dabbed Jeff’s wounds, cringing at the story and admiring his courage. “And you saved her...” she finally responded as she dabbed his cheek. “Well, you tell me a story like that, how the hell am I supposed to stay mad at you?” She chuckled as she grabbed more paper towels.
The only time florescent light was a good thing, was dabbing sounds apparently “Well, you deserve a beer. One that I’ll be buying you. You’re officially forgiven, sir.” She winked playfully. She could never stay mad at him. Tilting her head, she realized that he still had blood droplets on the edge of his lip. Leaning in close, she took a piece of paper and ripped it into a smaller piece “So...the night is still young and...you owe me a few dances, why don’t we go have some fun?”
It was her last night here and she wanted to make the absolute most of it. She also wanted to kiss him so badly. She wanted him badly as well. She wasn’t ready to jump into something serious, but she couldn’t help herself when she was around him “Jeff, it’s my last night here... Rhona and I are leaving for the UK tomorrow morning. I don’t care what happens tonight as long as I’m near you.”

Relina took a seat in Freddy’s lap. She smiled as she wrapped her arms around his neck. This guy was the best and what she knew was that those who had passed him up had made a mistake. She looked up at him smiling and then wiggled around a bit to get comfortable.
“Hey Fred! Let’s have another shot. I don’t know about this other person performing but hey sharing them stage is fine. After that I want to dance with you.”
She laughed as she signaled the waiter. He came over and she motioned to everyone.
“Four horseman for everyone with a stout chaser and get this guy,” she pointed to Fred, “the biggest beer you can.”
She laughed and leaned up and kissed him to dispel any illusions this handsome guy wasn’t with her. Yes she was a bit territorial but hey these things happened from time to time.
~*~
Logan wasn’t one to really share his thoughts with anyone. Hell even the professor had a hard time with him. He just did what he had to do and taught the occasional class. It was life. He felt comfortable talking with Angie. It was easy and he liked it.
“Not prying at all. I just felt that if you’re riding with a guy silence isn’t comfortable. Man and fighter are sometimes indistinguishable at time. Except for these times.”
The Who is they question had been sort of solved. He was still trying to find the rest of them himself. It was life but perhaps he should just let it be. He wasn’t so stuck on it any longer. He was making new memories and they were better than the old ones.
“I appreciate that. The professor has been helping with that. I find that to be enough at times. The whole not knowing is ok at times until something triggers something in my head to make me wonder. It’s then I do t know if I’m losing my mind.”
Her hand in his was comforting and he gave it a light squeeze. She shared about her home town and he was enjoying the conversation. It beat the radio.
“Home towns have a way of doing that. They change in ways you don’t expect. Every place does that after a long period away.”
He nodded. The ice skating would be nice. He didn’t mind that at all and dinner would be good as well.
“Ice skating should be a good appetite builder for dinner. I just can’t remember the last time I did it. Now for dinner I’ll find us some place that will be good enough for us to relax afterwards.”
~*~
Jeff hadn’t really taken the job for the money. He had done it because well he didn’t like the guy and this was a nice way to get back at the guy. He hated assholes like that guy and since he proved to be a terrible person. It was only natural that he make his life miserable. It had been accomplished.
“I guess I saved her. The choice wasn’t to hard. Her father was garbage and she had a better chance with her mother. That’s not a hard choice at all.”
When she said she could stay mad at him. He wouldn’t have blamed her at all if she did stay mad at him. He was late and he said he’d be there at a certain time.
“A beer? I’ll not say no to that. The next drink is on me though.”
When she leaned in close he nearly froze but waited for her to make whatever move she was going to make. He wasn’t one to force a situation or make people uncomfortable.
“Dancing is good and we have until the sun comes to end the night. It’s our night.”
The next news was a surprise. She was going to the United Kingdom. He didn’t let his face betray his disappointment but she may be able to tell. They were taking Rhona as well. That was going to be good for her. She needed to get away from here. He swallowed at her closeness and was actually feeling the emotion of the news. He leaned in a bit to give her the opportunity. Their closeness was extremely nice.
“You and me both, if it’s your last night here then let’s stay close and see where we end up. I mean as long as I get you back for your flight. I will have to visit then if you can have visitors. It’s not like what I do has a schedule. I could use a little time off anyways.”
He looked at Hope. She was so close and so beautiful. He wasn’t nervous just not expecting whatever was going to come to next.
~*~
Aaron was surprised when she asked who the artist of the month was and yes they had done a lot of talking of late, he had been giving her rides nearly everywhere. The topic of different cars was decent but one that he wouldn’t avoid if she asked him. The fee that were constant he actually owned. The revolving door of cars were ones he sold.
“Isn’t talking the way people get to know each other? I believe that we have some nice conversations on the rides we have shared.”
She made a good point about the cars. It would actually implicate her if they were caught she could go to jail. He had been to jail, well juvie, but still she wouldn’t like jail.
“That is just part of the excitement of riding with me. Tonight though I own this car and it’s registered in my name.”
The artist of the week was actually not to bad this week. It was Matisse. He wasn’t bad but again she’d know more about him than he would.
“It’s Henri Matisse. I mean I go when it’s an artist I know and I actually had to look up what his style was when he painted. I figured it was a good one to see since I’d be learning something new.”
He took another corner and ran a yellow light as they went along toward the destination.

Rhona want to do a whole bunch tonight and she wanted to do it with Todd. She waited until they were seated and his compliment she thoroughly enjoyed it. She smiled at him and scooter closer when Hope vacated then table.
“Todd...I will be leaving for Europe to help me adjust to life without having a mission. It will be until they deem me fit to function in society. I want to request your phone number. I don’t have a phone yet but I will get one and your number will be the first I put in it.”
She waited a moment and then decided that she wanted a drink. She had drank before tonight and realized that she only liked the drinks with a lot liquor in it. She looked at Todd.
“Can you get your lady a drink? The one you complimented outside?”
