(Does he want her to call him after work or in a couple day?)
(Does he want her to call him after work or in a couple day?)
(How about after work?)
(Okay)
Avery saw the man getting up and walking away. She couldn't stop the feeling disappointed as he did. She was hoping he would stay, wait until her shift was over, and ask to take her home with him. She could easily imagine them in the bed with no clothes. As she grabbed the money, she noticed the napkin with writing in it. She bit her lip and smiled after she read it. She tucked it and had tip into her pocket and put the cash in the register. She had never been so happy to get out of work early. They had slowed down enough where they only needed one bartender working, and Adam had told her he could stay until closing, then winked at her as if he knew what her nightly activity was going to be. She grabbed her things and hopped over the bar. Once she was outside, she pulled out the napkin and dialed the number. She put the phone to her ear and waited for him to answer.
By the time the female had gotten off of work and was calling Vaughn, he was back at the gas station. He had pushed open the glass doors and walked through the mesys isles over to where the main counter was. He went around to the back of it and sank into a sit in a desk chair, looking around the dark store. His eyes adjusted after a moment. It would be too risky to turn the lights on at night. He relaxed in the chair for a minute before getting uo ad going into the back room that was behind the counter. Back there was a few shelves, a bathroom which had a shower, thankfully, and a cot. He undressed, changing into a tshirt and a pair of sweats before he sat down on the cot. As he did so, he heard his phone ring. He picked it up and answered it. “Hello?” He asked, still having the same roughness in his tone even over the phone.
Avery had started walking down the familiar road home, in case he didn't answer. She didn't live far from where she worked, only a few blocks away. She didn't see the point in driving and wasting gas when she had two perfectly good legs. She was also very broke at the moment and couldn't afford gas, so she was doing everything she could to save what was in her tank. She wasn't afraid of walking home, she'd done it many times at night. No one really bothered her. She did have her pepper spray on her if anyone did try and grab her, but she's never had to use it before. AJ silently gasped as she heard his voice. The roughness made her clench her thighs in anticipation. "Um, hi, this is the girl from the bar."
Vaughn recognized the female’s voice. She was calling is soon. He had guessed it was a.. client. He preffered to say that over abuse victim or something like that. Thanks to an old therapist of his, when woman would come to tell about what was happening, they would be asked if they would like help from him. So far, most have said yes after a few days of thought. “Ah, I see. Just get off work?” He asked. He stood up from the cot and walked out into the main area to snag a random granola bar from one of the shelves.
Avery had hoped she didn't sound like she was desperate, even though she kind of was. She really wanted to take to him to bed for many, many hours. She put a hand in her pocket as she walked. "It was slow enough I got off early. A miracle really." She huffed a laugh. She had only really gotten off once early once before, and that was months ago. The bar was normally busy enough that it required two bartenders. Or her managers kept her longer because she was good at getting customers to keep drinking.
Vaughn listened to her closely, phone tucked between the crook of his neck and shoulder to be near to his ear as he opened the granola bar. “Well, that must be nice, then,” he commented about her getting off early. He wondered what having an actual job would be like. He thought he might like it. At least there would be less likely of a chance of him getting hurt or killed. But that wasn’t possible. He couldn’t go back now. The world needed to be cleansed of those evil men. “I never caught your name,” he spoke up after a quick moment of silence, walking back into the back room to sit on the cot.
Avery turned her head, looking at both sides of the street before crossing. She didn't fancy getting hit by a car…again. that was painful. "Avery. But everyone calls me AJ. You can call me either." She said. "What's your name?" She asked in return. All she knew were his initials, thanks to the napkin. She walked up the stairs to her apartment. As she unlocked her door, she was thankful that her roommate wasn't home. She was visiting her family for the weekend.
Vaughn listened to her answer. Avery the shadowy figured whispered. Pretty name. Don’t you think, Finley? He looked at the figure and gave a nod of his head. “I’m Vaughn,” he told her, reaching up to rub at his jaw. He had a little stubble forming on his jaw and face. He would need to shave, thinking he looked better when he was clean shaven. Made him look a bit more sharp.
(Ooh, stubble, we always love one)
Avery smiled. He seemed much more comfortable and talkative now that they were on the phone. When they were at the bar, he seemed so stand-offish. She thought he didn't want her to talk to him, thought that he didn't like her. But then he left his number, which must have meant that felt some sort of attraction towards her. "Vaughn, it suits you." She spoke through the phone as she set her keys on the kitchen table.
(Hello?)
(Sorry, i haven’t been around at all, i got very busy)
Vaughn stepped away from the mirror and out into the main area of the gas station. He didn’t need that figure distracting him when he was on the phone with someone. He reached up to brush his hand through his hair, pushing it back from his face as he stepped to the radio, turning it on a low volume. “Thank you, I think,” he responded to her words.
(Its okay)
Avery set her keys down in the counter and walked into her room. She kicked off her shoes and placed them in her closet. She sat in her bed and laid back, keeping the phone pressed to her ear. "Its a compliment, I promise." She said with a breathy laugh. She needed to get up, change, shower, but she really didn't want to move and she really didn't want to hang up.
(Bump)
(Yeah so again, i have not been active at all due to school. But now that summer is around, i’ll be on again if you would still want to continue!)
(Sure)
A compliment. Vaughn licked his lips to wet them as he considered it. He wasn’t sure how someone saying his name fit his appearance, but he wouldn’t try asking about it. “Thank you, then,” he responded. He spent a moment of standing there by the counter before that felt too awkward, so he moved to sit down in the desk chair, phone in hand. “Did you have any other plans for the night?” He asked after a moment.
Avery turned over on hee side, tucking her arm under her head. She pulled a throw blanket over her body, getting comfortable. "Not really. I'll prpbably shower in a bit and then go to sleep. What about you? Do you have any plans tonight?" She responded with her own question.
