Thread: A Knight without Shining Armor (Google+Velvet Stars)

The garden that Dominic had mentioned was predominantly flowers but there were also some very nice trees up there and a few shrubs which provided him with quite a bit of shade on days that he felt like sitting outside on the rood, taking advantage of the shadows and the quiet when he wanted a bit of time to read. Though his personal money meant that he would never had to seek higher education in order to live a very comfortable life he still worked to further himself through private study when he hadn't been drawing Marisa in towards him. Of course that study time would be a little bit short in the near future but that hardly mattered, to have reached a goal so long sought after was something he was greatly looking forward to. Please allow me to worry about my personal finances. He lightly teased Marisa as he let go of her hand and wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her to his side while continuing to lightly hold the hand of her sister. True Marisa had been his goal from the start but now that his eyes were set on both of them to leave one feeling neglected would really set things back a great deal, no he would have to be creative in how he divided time between them. I managed to get that scholarship that I wanted so my money won't be as tight... and I don't care what it costs as long as it gives us a little more time together. He had told Marisa that his parents had been willing to get him the apartment so he could study in privacy and they were paying half his tuition but the other half had been up to him to get... and from what he had told her that extra money had been made through supplementing his income by tutoring and occasionally writing papers for money. With a smile and another quick brush of his lips over Marisa's cheek he began to lead the girls down the street toward the restaurant that he had been speaking of, it wasn't all that far away, between the coffee shop they had met at and his apartment, but not near where the bus had dropped them off. I am not surprised that you didn't see it, Golden Dragon Szechuan Palace is good distance away from the bus stop the two of you got off at... but it isn't too far and if Marisa needs a little bit of help making it there I would be more then happy to help her out by carrying her. He offered, still playing the gentleman but winking at Melanie to let her in on the joke that she might think he was making. He was trying to match both twins he could, playing the perfect young man to Marisa while at the same time trying to subtly let Melanie know that he wasn't above a little bit of teasing, but not so much as to be outright insulting to her sister. The Golden Dragon had been first on his mind for a few reasons, location and the fact that it didn't really pick up until much later at night, having become a spot for hipster college students who wanted a meal after partying... they hadn't even opened until about two hours earlier and it was long before any rush that they might see. Wanting to make sure that Marisa hadn't seen anything suspicious Dominic hadn't even bothered to bring his full wallet, only a money clip with some cash in it, nothing that would allow his real name to be revealed, even his apartment had been 'sanitized' before leaving so as not to give him away. The pace he set as they walked was casual, taking care not to walk to fast let Marisa hurt her feet on the way there, smiling and observing the twins along the way while enjoying envious looks from strangers who had no idea what he soon intended to have these two beautiful nymphs doing for him. As they reached the restaurant, a very subdued frontal facade with only a simple blue sign over head advertising the name in English and Mandarin Chinese gave any hint to what it was, the windows darkly tinted. I don't know if you two enjoy green tea, I really am not a fan but I have been told that the tea here is excellent. He explained as the young Asian man acting as host took three menus and led them towards a table. But it doesn't really matter what you order, enjoy yourselves and get whatever you like, personally I enjoy the Lo Mein but I have heard that the shrimp with lobster sauce is more then delicious.
