Chase kept his mouth shut as to his opinions on Emilian, but nothing could stop the fierce glare of his eyes. He'd gotten two shops down the street before he turned to see if Eloise had actually come with him. He forced his face to soften; Eloise hadn't done anything to piss him off. That honor lay solely with Emilian.

Eloise had followed Chase out, she didn't even bother to give Emilian one last look, she was sick of him, sick of the way he acted with her and yet she was positively sure that he wanted the exact same thing that she did, it was just that Adara bitch standing in the way. Eloise quickly walked off after Chase catching up with him. "He's a bit of a bastard isn't he?" She said grimacing as she walked by Chase's side.

Chase looked at Eloise, his gaze assessing. "That's putting it politely," he quipped. He had far more colorful nicknames for Emilian, but didn't feel the need to share them. "Did you get your necklace?" Chase asked. He remembered hearing her ask about one, so he figured he'd ask.

Eloise grinned before nodding, she put her hand into the pocket of her trousers and pulled it out, she had thrown the box somewhere in the shop. "Did you get the earrings?" She asked, well she hadn't exactly been focussing when she was in the shop. Eloise continued to walk with Chase at her own pace, her hair falling over the side of her shoulder creating a curtain between them as she stared down at the floor.

Chase's jaw tensed. "No," he said. His left hand rose to touch his bare earlobe. "I'll just go without for a while, I'm not giving him my money. I should've just walked out as soon as I saw him in there, but..." Chase shrugged, a casual motion of his shoulders. He watched Eloise as they walked, or at least he watched what he could see with her hair obscuring her face. "I take it I'm not the only one who knows him by more than reputation." It was apparent by the way she'd talked to him.

Elise pushed her hair back from her face looking at Chase, "I don't even know why I was there to begin with... ugh, I was so stupid... I should have left when I had the chance but then me being me... well, I sort of uhh..." Eloise couldn't continued how could she tell him the truth, that she was a silly little whore that threw herself at Emilian, the rapist, but that was the sad part... that even a rapist wouldn't want her. "... I threw myself at him." She said in a disgusted whisper, she could feel the tears in her eyes but she wouldn't show weakness instead she pushed her hair back over her shoulder to shield her face from him once more.

Chase made a grimace of disgust, more at the idea of anyone throwing themselves at Emilian than at Eloise herself. "You know he's probably got every std known to wizardkind," he said. Chase shrugged. "At least you got out. There's one I've seen him with more than once. She must be mentally unstable." Or stupid.

Eloise conitnued to look at the ground listening to what Chase was saying, "Ugh... gross." She said grimacing once more when he mentioned the std's. Eloise kept her head down watching her feet as she walked, "That would be Adara I think." She mumbled when he mentioned the person, "I don't like her much... but then again I don't like a lot of people." She said biting her lip.

"Why not?" Chase watched Eloise a moment, though he couldn't see her face with her hair in the way. Just the way she was walking said she had self-esteem issues, but Chase couldn't understand why. What insanity made the hottest girls hate themselves? "People can be morons, but you've got to deal with them sometime."

Eloise shrugged, "I dunno..." She mumbled as she continued to stare at her feet. Eloise peered through the thick curtain of hair at Chase before swiftly pushing her long hair back from her face and shoulder. "That's life... it's not like we can do anything about it." She said quietly lost in thought.

Chase nearly let out a breath of relieved frustration at finally getting to see her face. It drove him crazy talking to hair. It took him a second to grab back his train of thought. "There is stuff we can do about it," he said. "You can avoid the major dumbasses and ignore the minor ones."

Eloise couldn't help but laugh, "Hmm I guess we could do that... or... WE DESTROY THEM ALL!" She joked laughing again, it was odd for Eloise, she hadn't been herself that way for years... always too busy worrying about how she looked or what people thought of her. Eloise grinned noticing people staring at her in the street, she probably looked like a weirdo to them. "Sorry got carried away" She mumbled sheepishy looking down, a smile still on her face.

"Don't do that." Chase stopped walking, his hand reaching out to catch Eloise lightly under her chin. He lifted her face to look at him, rather than the ground, for once. "Don't say you're sorry for letting yourself have a little fun." His lips curved into something between an encouraging smile and a smirk. "Have fun once in a while. On your terms." His smile widened into a teasing grin. "Or destroy them all, if that's what's fun."

Eloise blushed as she felt his hand at her chin, "What if my definition of fun isn't the same as yours, no matter what my terms are?" She asked licking her lips slowly as she looked at him from under her eyelashes. She couldn't be doing this... not after what happened with Emilian. Eloise pulled his hand from her chin once more, directing her face back to the floor before she continued to walk, she had just made a mistake, maybe a big one at that.

Chase watched Eloise a second, then took a few long strides to catch up with her. He wondered what was going through her mind, if her self-esteem issues were really that bad or if she was playing hard to get. Not that he was particularly trying to get her, but his interest had peaked. He applied himself to her question as he walked beside her, watching the curtain of her hair. "If your idea of fun is different than mine, then it's my problem to deal with it, not yours," he said. "How are you supposed to enjoy life if you're always worried about what everyone else thinks?"
