(Yesssss and I have no idea who said that 👀)
King watched the insane lady go off on Aria’s coworker. He pulled his notebook out and just made a little nite of it. He was almost positive this was part of his assignment, “He seems to be able to handle them well enough. Though I’m sure you could do just as well.”
"pfft " she flipped her hair over her shoulder with the back of her hand "of course I could. She'd be on the ground in approximately three seconds. Five if she was expecting it. She would be out here by now. See, we're not actually allowed to hurt them, but they don't know that. So he gives the impression that he can definitely handle her. We don't get these type of people very well, but every now and then we do and he just steps in front of them. They stop yelling and take their leave. I do admit, it's smart. But…. I can handle it. But it's fine, I'll be able to handle someone else later today anyway" she says casually, though a smirk on her lips. They were no longer glossed over and now showed her natural lips softness.
King had a smile on as she watched her talk. His eyes trailed to her lips before snapping back up to her eyes when she said her last sentence. He, he would never admit how much he was affected by the mere suggestion or even her just casually saying it. He felt his cheeks turn red, but gave her a smile back, "It's probably a good thing that you aren't allowed to hurt them. Though I'm sure you could pin her quiet easily and anyone else whom, you might wish too."
She knew whether he chose to show it or not, that she had an affect on him. Though she didn't know the extent. Would she ever?
She turned to him instead of looking at the lady and her coworker. "oh, I could do so much worse" her voice soft and calming yet a dangerous tip to her tongue. She wasn't joking either. She's killed so many people easily. It was a mystery even to her how nobody knew who she was.
King appeared to remain calm on the outside, though is inner thoughts were in turmoil. He didn't know what she meant by that, and he almost wanted to. There were many ways that one sentence could go. She could be implying that she could do worse than just pin a person and hold her own in a fight. That was probably the best place his mind went to, the others were much too… Dangerous or much too kinky.
Aria was a kinky person, no doubt about that. But believe it or not she was a bit embarrassed about it. She wouldn't admit to it unless the other person did first. In which they never have. She hasnt had a hook up in a while though, but she definitely wasn't rusty
His mind wandered to a few other places before he shook himself out of it. He hadn't been with someone or thought like this in so long. King cleared his throat and finally responded, "I have no doubts you can do worse."
"oh well I'm glad. If you did I would have had to show you" she says with a little smile curving up her lips.
King saw the smile and felt his heart start to speed up again. He grinned back, "Maybe you should. Just so that I know you really can."
“Oh, so now are you doubting me?” She raised an eyebrow looking his body up and down before they came back up to his eyes in a challenging manner
"No," King responded as he saw her look at him. He decided to return the favor his eyes trailing over every part of her body before back up to her eyes, "I want to see you do it."
“Oh well i take that as a challenge. And with that” she paused, letting him look over her. “I accept. See you there” she flicked his nose and sauntered over to her coworker, swaying her hips as usual.
“Hey, are your ears alright? My ears would be bleeding if she yelled at me that much” Aria joked as she looked up at the tall man. “Oh, its fine.” His voice low and raspy. “She was too short, her voice didn't get up here as much” he joked with her. He was actually very sweet, but he could look extremely mean.
King felt his body shudder involuntarily as she walked away. Oh he was so screwed tonight and that was fine with him. He stayed by the counter leting the two coworkers converse on their own. His time was about up anyway.
“Though if we have another Karen, I’m letting you deal with it. She was really annoying” he says with a sad puppy look. “Oh, but they’re not scared of me and you know it.” Aria says crossing her arms and sitting up on the counter. They talked a bit more until he realized the man by the wall.
“Who’s the lucky guy huh?” He gestured over to him, elbowing Arias arm playfully. “Oh that’s King. He came here for-“ she paused, thinking back on everything that happened before letting out a small smile.
“For a school assignment.”
“Oh i see. How’s that going?” He asked with a chuckle
King's head perked up. He could tell they were talking about him and he was fine with that. He was writing in his notebook things that he deemed useful. Mainly about the different aspects of working at the store along with how they could possibly get into legal trouble.
(XD yess)
“Hey” He called over to him with a wave of his large hand. “Come here kid” he says leaning against the counter. Aria sat on it, leaning forward a bit. If if wasnt for most of her hair over her shoulders more of her cleavage than necessary would have shown. She kicked her legs back and forth as she looked at King wondering if he dared to listen to the man.
King pushed himself off the wall and walked towards Aria's coworker. He didn't really see the idea of the other male being all that intimidating. Probably becuase he fought guys his size regularly and typically csme out on top. Typically, "Hello there."
Almost seven feet tall, he looked down at the “boy” with his arms crossed. “Treat her good wont you? Not many men do” he smiled the best he could, which still turned out a bit scary. Maybe not to King though.
Arias face lit up a bright red “hey! I’m right here!” She says punching his arm.
The man only chuckled “i know. Anyway, its time to go. Ill see you guys” he says heading to Floras office to check out.
King had a smile on as he responded with a, "Will do," before the other had left. King turned to Aria smiling, "Doesn't that mean it's time for us to getting going as well?"
“Why yes it does” she says trying to ignore the fact that he gave her butterflies in her chest. His answer to him made her quite happy actually. She tried to hide her genuine smile, which was rather hard but she managed. Barely.
Hopping off of the counter, she grabbed her things, her wallet, some sticky notes she wrote down and a piece of candy, popping it in her mouth. She walked over to the door her boss was in, opening is saying a few incoherent words and with the she shut the door. “Let’s go” she says with a smile.
King could tell she may actually be smiling, he wasn't sure though. He waited for Aria to get back and offered her an arm, "Let's. You drove here I'm guessing?"
She nodded. "I have a proposal to make" agendas stepping outside. "I'll pay if I must, but what if we go out to eat first? Though I do need to change if we do. Maybe something more… " she paused. "appropriate" she says looking down at her laced black crop top, her black bra showing through it. A small belly button ring was present which was usually easy to miss and she wouldn't be surprised if he didn't notice it. A small diamond was all it was.
King looked down at her lace crop top and the little belly ring. He hadn't missed it, no he had seen it. He nodded and smiled, "I can agree to that. But I don't think you need to change, you look fine as you are."
"oh I know I look fine" she says with her usual confidence. "though it's rather hard to get off. Plus, the lace is a little itchy." she says making her way to her car, leaning on the door facing him as she bit her lip a little just thinking about kissing him again.
King stopped himself from freezing as she said that. His mouth went dry and she wanted to kiss her again and he wanted to badly. He kept a grin on as he approached her car, "I, okay then. I, uh, also have my car here. So maybe give me your address and I can pick you up when your done changing?"
