It had been a slow day at the joke shop, so Ryan decided to close up early and take a stroll through the alley. He had been back for little of a week, and had already had a run in with Savannah, and if he had anything to say about it, that wouldn't be the only time. He had figured out that she now works I'm the beauty shop just a few doors down, and since he was closing up early he knew he would likely be able to see her as she was leaving work. He saw Vannah leaving the store, and she was walking in the opposite direction, so Ryan caught up with her while she was distracted by something else and said "Have a good day of work in the Beauty shop?" He knew that she was not likely to be very thrilled about seeing him again, but he was prepared for whatever she might say to him.

Savannah never closed the shop early. It wasn't really her call, anyways. It wasn't her shop, she was just a valued employee there. Now that Savannah knew that Ryan was back, she made sure to adjust her path. She didn't necessarily avoid the joke shop. She figured she would allow Ryan to watch her walk by a few times a week. It was unfortunate that the joke shop was so near to her shop. It was on her way, but it didn't have to be if she adjusted her route slightly.
The time came to close up the shop and head home for the day. Savannah had helped the last customer and cleaned things up so the shop would be ready for the next day. She grabbed her things, turned off the main lights, and set up the security measures. She stepped outside on that windy day and locked up behind her. As soon as she turned the key on the last lock, she was spooked by the sound of Ryan's voice. She rolled her eyes before turning around to face him. "It was a day at work just like any other." She said vaguely. "What are you doing here?"

Ryan laughed slightly, already sensing she was annoyed "Well I do work just a few shops down. You knew I would find out where you work. I closed up a little early today and just so happened to pass by here when you were coming out." Ryan gave a slight smile "What luck that is." He added. He knew the venom that was likely to be in her response, but he did not care. He knew the likelihood of where this would end up, and he had a feeling he knew just how far he could push her.

Someone may have been flattered that Ryan took the effort to find out where she worked, but Savannah was not that woman. She felt odd about the fact that he tracked her down. She didn't think it was all that hard, but the way he approached what he found didn't sit well with her. "Luck, right." She said. She wasn't as biting as she used to be, not usually at least. Especially not right in front of where she worked. You never knew what customers were lurking around. She had a certain clientele that kept her in business and it didn't do any good to scare them off. "I see. Do any of your other conquests find it charming that you hunt them down like a deer in the woods? Or are there any, like me, that think it odd and a little creepy?" She didn't like the thought of having a stalker. There was a certain way to go about these things. If he was trying to pursue her, he should do so like a proper gentleman. Not like a lunatic stalker straight out of the hospital.

Ryan knew there was likely to be a shot thrown at him like that. "One, you wanted me to find you, no matter what you might want to admit. Two, I don't have conquests ever. I have had girlfriends. You knew what you were doing when you started playing this game in my shop, and you knew I would find you, so don't try to make me out to be some kind of monster for it." He finished softly. He knew she would try to hit him like that, but it was still hard to take once she did.

Savannah wasn't necessarily trying to shoot him down. If that was what she was doing, well, she couldn't really help it. She had standards. "Oh, please." Savannah said, rolling her eyes. She wasn't that naive. "You've had girlfriends and you've had girls. You can't deny it. I've been there through all of it, remember?" Savannah wasn't aware of the games he was referring to. She hardly even moved in his shop. If having a nice rack meant she was playing games, then she played games with every guy she saw. That wasn't her fault. It was god's gift to her. "You never answered my question, Ryan. What are you doing here?" He had to have a reason and it better be a damn good one. She didn't like to waste her time.

Ryan looked at her "I have had girlfriends, and I have had girls that I talked to for a little while and everyone assumed I did things that I never did. Then, above all that, I had 1 girl that I loved more than anything. Why else would I be here Vannah? I am standing here right now to see you." He said, deciding not to be vauge at all and just lay it all out there. He had came back to the magical world for many reasons, but there was always that hope that he would at least be able to see Vannah again, and maybe talk to her some. He knew that he would likely never get what he wants completely, but anything would be better than being totally apart from her.
Ryan looked at her, wondering how she would react. "When you left my shop did you honestly expect me to just leave it at that and not try to see you again?" He asked honestly. He started trying to figure out how to see her again the minute she walked out of his shop a week ago.

Savannah had just got off a long shift at work and she really wasn't in much of a mood to deal with this now. Ryan used to be fun, but now she could hardly think about what he was saying without getting a headache. "Do you honestly feel the need to be so dramatic?" She asked. She was getting ready to snap. She could feel her level of frustration rising. "We're not children anymore. Well, at least some of us aren't. What you do with your time is your business, Ryan. Whether you want to see me or not is your business. If you want to make it my business as well, you better find another way of doing it. Sabotaging me after work is not the proper way. It is not the way I expect to be treated by any gentleman and I hardly accept anything less." Savannah clutched her bag. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some things to do. I hope you enjoy your evening." She said before walking off without waiting for a response.
