rp for likely_evil

[manorsuperman]

[ooc: Set several hours after this thing that we started a long friggin time ago. Should have gotten this up sooner.]

It had been a long drive from Smallville to wherever it was they were now. Honestly, Lana hadn't been paying attention. There had been a little talking in the car, but she had mostly listened to whatever conversation was going on, fiddled with her phone or iPod...or watched Sam from the corner of her eye. She couldn't exactly put her finger on it, but there was something very familiar about him, like she'd met him somewhere before. But if she had, she was sure she would have remembered him.

Now they were all settling into their rooms. As she expected, Chloe was wholly set on sharing a room with Dean instead of her. Hopefully there wouldn't be too much noise filtering in from the other side of the wall.

Lana set her bag on one of the beds and sat beside it, starting to pull off her shoes and make herself comfortable.

Comments

[likely_evil]

Sam sat back. "Depends. If Angelina Jolie hit on you, I might be all for it as long as I'm allowed to watch."

[manorsuperman]

"Hmm...I think I'd rather have Jessica Alba."

[likely_evil]

He sat back, pondering that. "Or that. I'm not picky."

His smile was complete teasing.

[manorsuperman]

She laughed, again, because let's face it, this was the most amusing conversation she'd had in a while. This time she laughed so hard, she almost fell over.

[likely_evil]

He laughed as well. "And just so you know, the real and fake self will both point out that any fantasies your fake self has with me and another guy might as well die now, because we don't go that way."

[manorsuperman]

Lana smiled at him, eyes sparkling. "Well lucky for the both of you, the both of us have no interest in those sorts of fantasies."

[likely_evil]

"You don't know how happy that makes us." Sam grinned.

[manorsuperman]

Lana smiled, looking down at her plate. It was mostly empty, excepting maybe a small bit of lo mein and half a wanton. Honestly, she didn't feel like eating another bite.

Okay, so maybe she'd finish the wanton.

"I'm ready to go when you are."

[likely_evil]

His plate empty, he smiled and got up, grabbing the bill. "Then let's get going."

[manorsuperman]

Lana returned his smile and got up. As they walked toward the front to pay, she absentmindedly slipped her hand into his.

[likely_evil]

He looked down at their hands when he felt hers, then gave a small smile and squeezed hers before he had to use that hand to get his wallet.

[manorsuperman]

She smile as she felt him squeeze her hand. "Should I assume you're one of those guys who insists on paying for a meal?"

[likely_evil]

"Not really. I'm a turn taker. You can get the next one."

[manorsuperman]

Her smile got bigger. "So they'll be a next one?"

[likely_evil]

"Well, we're going to be here for at least another meal, I hope. Would be stupid to drive all this way to only stay a few hours and drive back." He gave her a teasing smirk.

[manorsuperman]

She nodded. "Right. Of course."

[likely_evil]

He paid the bill, then stuck his wallet back in his pocket. He hesitated a moment, then took her hand back up as they walked out.

"So, what next?"

[manorsuperman]

Lana held firmly to his hand as they walked. "Well, unless you have any ideas, we could go back to the room and talk. Maybe play Scrabble." The last little bit was a joke, and it showed in her voice.

[likely_evil]

"I am firmly out of ideas. However, you don't want to play scrabble against me. Dean stopped when I was ten because he got tired of looking the words up in the dictionary when he didn't believe they were real."

Sam rubbed the back of his neck.

[manorsuperman]

A soft chuckle. "We could always take the teenage route and make out..."

She wasn't really sure if she was kidding or not.

[likely_evil]

Sam stumbled as he was walking on that one, then stopped and gave her a what did you just say? look as his face started to turn just a bit red.

[manorsuperman]

Lana resisted laughing, but not the playful grin that was now on her face. "Was it something I said?"

[likely_evil]

"You just come out and ask every guy you have a date with that you want to make out with them, or am I just a special case?"

[manorsuperman]

Now she was laughing a little. "Usually I just lay one on 'em, but it's hard to kiss and walk at the same time. Besides, I was kidding..." She tilted her head thoughtfully. "I think."
