(Nope. Heard of it but never watched it.)
Connor shrugged slightly before he opened the door. Upon seeing her snuggling with the pillow with his shirt on, he sighed softly with a wide grin on his face.
“Just tell me you wanted to cuddle,” he spoke before he went to store the drinks and chocolate in the fridge. He then looked over at her for a moment before pulling the pillow away from her as he sat down where the pillow was.
She snuggled right into his chest. "You were gone I had to inproviiiise. You butt. I saw chocolate in that bag,any candy for me?" She looked at him with hope in her eyes.
He looked at her for a long moment, seemingly with a bored or unexcited facial expression… but then he smiled.
“I didn’t buy anything other than chocolate so I hope that’ll do? Don’t worry, I bought it for the both of us,” he noted, running his fingers through her hair as he turned to look at the TV.
"Don't play around with that expression,for a second I thought I seriously fucked up. And it's fine. I'm not the biggest fan of chocolate but. That's alright. Thank you love." She smiled and kissed his cheek softly,and nuzzled into his hand. "I love you rubbing my head like that. It feels safe. Weirdly."
He looked down at her for brief moment before looking back up at the television.
“You are safe in my hands,” he mentioned subtly before he looked out the window.
“Should I just finish the job today so that I can spend the rest of the week with you…?” He considered his options. If he did finish the job today, he’d have the rest of the week to himself and her. If he didn’t, then he’ll have to do some research on where the man will be at the rest of the week.
"Do what you wanna do. I'm staying here on the couch as much as I can. I'll miss ya, but will be thrilled when you come home to me again. And. I'm glad I'm safe with you." She smiled and kissed his cheek again,and then a third time just for good measure. "I love you." She said simply, laying her head now in his lap,hugging his knees with her arms,unsure of what else to do with them.
Although his options were all very interesting, he decided on the best. He looked over at the clock, sighing softly to himself.
“I’ll leave at eleven,” he started “and be back by two or three,” he had stated. It was still a bit until the short hand would reach eleven so, staying here with her was a nice thing. He leaned down to kiss her cheek before going back to sit up straight and watch the show. Whilst doing that, he was also giving her some soft belly tickles.
"Geeze no I love ya back? Ouch babe." She pouted a bit, all to adorably,and slowly sat up and unwrapped her arms from around him, now crossing them once more. "Fine then. I guess you don't want my good and gracious cuddles either." She said this all I haughty tones, a smirk on her face as she turned her head away from him, full of attitude as always.
“Since when did I say that?” He asked, wrapping his arms around her body and pulling her close.
“I’ll just be gone for a bit. I would take you too if you were able to stand straight,” he smiled softly, kissing the back of her neck.
“Remind me to not be too rough with you next time,”
"I'm not hearing an I Love You Too…" She said in a sing song voice, sitting in his lap, cuddling against him. She kept her pout, trying hard not to smile and just cover him in kisses. How fast she had fallen? Too fast. But this time it was a good thing.
He let out a very soft smirk, leaning into her ear.
“I love you too,” he spoke with a low tone before he kissed the back of her neck again before laughing out softly.
“Geez, you’re making me blush just by being here,” he chuckled softly, burying his face into her hair.
She blushed and gave a soft moan. "Okay that was mean. But I got what I wanted so I can't complain." She stayed in his lap. "I actually don't want you to leave at all but of course you have a job to do." She sighed. "But I'm staying right here until you leave." She wrapped her arms and legs tight around him, burying her face into his chest, completely facing away from the small TV.
A small chuckle was let out as he looked down at her, brushing her hair gently as he hummed a soft song. The song was one he often hummed when he was hunting someone. He looked down at her again, smiling.
“Evelynnnnnn~~” he let out simply as if wanting to show his clinginess as he hugged her just a little bit tighter.
She giggled. "Whaaaat Con Con?" She asked while looking up at him,a wide smile on her face as she leaned up and kissed him. She then booped him,wanting to see what he would do.
He rethought what was about to say for a moment before smiling softly and speaking…
“I’m passing by the suburbs where your ex is… want me to just finish the job for ya or would you prefer to do it yourself love?” He asked, genuinely thinking he knew the answer already.
"Bitch I'm doing that myself. Fucker done me wrong." She said this in angry harsh tones. Her eyes that only second ago had been glittering like fairy dust, now turned cold and heartless as ever as she muttered herself into an angry silence.
Although Connor was expecting something along those lines, we didn’t quite expect her tone to come out that way. He sighed under his breath, his hand still on her head as he continued running his fingers down her hair.
“Understood.” He replied simply, not wanting to ignite an old flame inside her.
The head scritches slowly brought her out of her sour mood as she nuzzled into his hand, and she sighed and cuddled back up against him with a sigh.
Time passed by for a bit and the clock was nearing eleven. With what little time he had left, Connor had sighed and looked down at the girl who was sitting with him.
“I better get going…” he spoke almost sadly as he was about to stand up.
"Noooo…" She whined and pouted, clinging to him. She was tired and weak from the night before though and so he easily slipped out of her arms. She grabbed the t-shirt pillow and hugged it close. "Hurry back okay love?"
“I will be back ASAP baby,” he pushed her hair up slightly and kissed her forehead. His lips were like a feather. He then left, carrying his small bag of equipment and immediately started heading to the cafe where the man was going to be at soon enough. His mind right now? It was telling him to go ‘home’. Go back to Evelyn. Be back in her arms… he will soon enough. He had a job to do first was his thought as he neared the cafe.
Evelyn immediately stripped off her clothes as he left,and after awhile she found herself dozing off. She soon fell asleep while cuddling Connor Replacement Pillow, smiling softly in her sleep as the TV played on in the background.
As Connor arrived at the cafe, he sat down and ordered a drink as to not make it seem suspicious. His victim soon arrived. Connor was going to make this quick. When the man had ordered his drink and when the drink had arrived, Connor stood up and started to walk to the bathroom of the cafe, holding the dropper filled with cyanide in the palm of his wrist. He walked… and faked a really good stunt of him slipping on something. During that moment, he had his hand above the cup of coffee the man had ordered and had dropped the few drops of poison into his cup.
“Oh, sorry sir,” he quickly apologized as he went to the bathroom and came back, waiting to see the man dead. Apparently not yet. The man still hasn’t taken a sip of the coffee yet either. He quickly gathered his things and upon leaving the shop, had heard the man cry out in pain. He smiled… quickly heading back to Evelyn’s place.
An hour and a half had passed after his leave and now he had returned. When he opened the door and saw that she was cuddling against the pillow with his shirt, he smiled unconditionally. A murderer? This cute? Come on…
He sat down on the empty part of the couch, looking at her before he reached to hug her body and kiss the side of her neck then her cheek.
“I’m back love…”
She stirred a bit at that,murmuring in her sleep as she slowly began to awake. "Mmm…waaarm…" She said in sleepy tones, turning around and putting her face in the crook of his neck. Her arms and legs draped themselves around him as she smiled and whispered. "Yaaaaay you're baaaack…" Before closing her eyes, attempting to fall asleep again.
His red eyes looked at her body up and down as he too closed his eyes and started drifting off. Her body was warm and soft to the touch… it can’t be helped that he felt safe around her. Very safe as well…
