From Obscurity

[Neo]

Neo only just heard her whispered words, and he heartily agreed. He wouldn't press her to lie for him. This wasn't her fault, wasn't entirely his fault. It had just happened, and even knowing the possible consequences, he didn't regret it. Maybe he would later, but not now. He gave a brief nod of understanding before slipping his hands free of hers, taking his glasses and sliding them on. "Let me know what happens," he said softly, his eyes disappearing behind their shield once more. He wanted to know she'd be all right.

[Mistress]

Mistress nodded. "I'll send you a note when I tell him." She didn't think tracking him down personally would be the best thing, regardless of her boyfriend's reaction. She smoothed her hands along her outfit and picked up her sword. "I think I'll go get some fresh air and try to get back into my secret identity. Bye." She gave him a smile, hoping she looked more confident about things than she felt.

[Neo]

"Bye." With that, Neo watched her walk away, his gaze reflexively slipping down her curves. He marveled that it was her at all, but he knew, from that first kiss, from her reactions. He let out a long, low breath, willing the tension to lessen, then turned toward the dance floor. He needed to get some energy out.

[Mistress]

Mistress pushed open the door to the garden and took in the fresh air. She headed off in the direction of a maze of bushes. magikal05.proboards46.com/index.cgi?board=masqgardens&action=display&thread=3342&page=7#64298
