Taking a Walk (Anna and Michael)

[Annabelle Hennessy]

Annabelle explored his mouth as her hands roamed the rest of him. One palm came to rest on his chest, enjoying the feel of his muscles moving ever so slightly below her fingers. Her other hand came to stroke his shoulder, enjoying the strength of him holding her. She held in a quiver as her thighs brushed up against him.

[Michael Blackwood-Hardt]

Michael could feel his heart pounding and imagined she could feel it through her palm laying on his chest. He pressed his lips to hers once more before kissing down her jaw to her neck. He could feel her pulse through his lips and it made him smile. The hand on her back wandered down to her thigh, gripping it as he kissed her neck.

((I promise I was invited o.o))

Dru had sneaked out of the club, it was the middle of a rush and she trusted that her employees could handle everything on their own. She had left one girl in charge and left through the back door, stealing out to the lake. There was a little place she knew of and she walked towards it, but saw two figures on the ground as she passed a tree into the glade. She stopped in her tracks as she recognized flaming red hair. She tried to step backwards but hit a twig, the snap reverberated through her ears as she stood stock-still.

[Michael Blackwood-Hardt]

The light snap cracked loudly in Michael's ears, making him jerk his head towards the sound. In one movement he grabbed his wand, sat up, and pushed Anna behind him. His eyes narrowed as he looked out, trying to see the source of the sound. He saw a figure partially behind a tree, hidden by the shadow. "Who's there?" he said loudly, pulling his legs underneath him so he could stand quickly if need be.

[Annabelle Hennessy]

Anna righted herself, tucking some wild strands of hair behind her ear. With a pounding heart, she withdrew her own wand. She knew that he'd said others wanted him dead, but had always assumed Hogwarts grounds were a safe haven. Kneeling behind him, she placed her free hand on Michael's shoulder. She peered around him as they waited on pins and needles for some sort of response from the intruder.

[Druscilla Grace]

Dru started at Michael's reaction and stepped out of the shadows, showing her face and hands. "It's just me, sorry, I didn't mean..." she trailed off as she looked at their faces, hair all mussed, Michael with grass in his. She chewed her lip, wondering if they would be mad, her eyes darted to their wands, hoping they'd put them away soon.

[Michael Blackwood-Hardt]

Michael sighed when he saw who it was and put his arm down, sitting down on the ground again and taking Anna's hand from his shoulder. "Darn it Dru, don't sneak up on me like that," he said, eyes narrowing slightly. He was able to feel a tingle in his stomach which faintly registered as resulting from the sudden end of the kiss. He ran a hand through his hair, what if he had sent a curse towards Dru?

[Annabelle Hennessy]

Anna put her wand back in her pocket as soon as Dru stepped out. She felt slightly rejected as Michael put space between them but also embarrassed at having been caught kissing. She knew the warmth she felt in her cheeks was no longer from excitement, but rather a flush coming on. Not knowing what to do in such an uncomfortable situation, Annabelle sat with her back against the tree, instinctively chewing on her lower lip, and looking back and forth between the two. She couldn't read Michael well enough to tell if he was frustrated at being interupted, or at Dru finding them kissing, but decided it best to keep quiet until she figured out where she stood.

[Druscilla Grace]

"Sorry, I didn't mean to," she stood uncomfortably. The idea of them being together hadn't bothered her, but catching them in such a compromising position caught her off-guard. Dru crossed an arm over her body, holding her other elbow as she matched Annabelle's lip-chewing. She looked up at Annabelle, feeling worse for interrupting her than for doing the same to Michael.

[Michael Blackwood-Hardt]

Michael felt Anna move from him and turned to look at her. When he saw her chewing her lip he scooted back to sit beside her, "Don't do that," he said softly, creasing his eyebrows and using a thumb to pull her lip away. He ran his thumb along her lip and gave a small smile. He almost forgot that Dru was there until he heard her voice again. He took Anna's hand and linked his fingers in hers before looking back at Dru. "Just knock next time," he said, a grin pulling at the edges of his mouth.

[Annabelle Hennessy]

Annabelle relaxed a bit at Michael's attention. It was still uncomfortable being caught by Dru, but knowing that Michael wasn't ashamed to show affection in front of her made it bearable. She focused back on Dru and smiled, resisting the urge to take her lip between her teeth again. At Michael's comment, she pretended to roll her eyes and shrug. "Boys!" she exclaimed to Dru, trying to assist in breaking the tension, "They never take credit for blame do they?"

[Druscilla Grace]

Dru smiled and crossed her arms, "Nope." She looked back down at Michael, "It's your own fault, next time you'll know to find somewhere where others can knock."

[Michael Blackwood-Hardt]

"Hush, the both of you," Michael said, though a pleasant smile spread across his face as he said it. His hand tighted slightly around Anna's and he looked back at her, his eyes sparkling.

[Annabelle Hennessy]

Anna met Michael's eyes as she caressed her thumb along his. She'd wondered how things would be if they were all together, and was greatful that it didn't take long for everyone to have a smile on their face. Her grin held a hint of humor as she asked Michael, "Feeling outnumbered by us girls?"

[Michael Blackwood-Hardt]

Michael smiled, "Nope, I could take you both." He grinned back at her and pulled their hands up, kissing her knuckles, "I know exactly how to get you." He could hold his own against them, and all he had to do basically was touch Anna and he could get her to stop teasing him, at least that was what he told himself.
