⠀ Déjà vu ──── Cloud would assume what she served into his grip﹐raising the glass to her﹐accentuating the gesture with a subtle; “⠀Beautiful․ ⠀” ⠀
Nods, retreating to fetch the ingredients and glasses to begin her concoction. Relying on the balance of gin, lime juice and sugar, a glass is served and placed before the merc. “Here we go. Enjoy.~”
Don't know․ Something hard and sour․
So proud! Now, what kind of drink can I get ya?
⠀ “⠀Should have guessed․ You know that's not what bodyguards are actually for﹐right﹖But I'll make an exception․ Just this once․ ⠀” ⠀
"Who said I need bodyguarding /against/ something in particular hm? I just need my bodyguard~ Or can't I require his company?" Cue the cute nose furrow.
Always is․ So I guess I have two reasons to stick around now․
Great! I'm glad you think so. Plus, you have my company, too. That's a bonus, right?
In that case﹐guess I do have a reason to stick around․
Hmm... free drinks?
⠀ “⠀ Guess that's true enough ──── what do you need bodyguarding against exactly﹖⠀” ⠀
"You and your money. When don't I pay you hm?"
Heh․ Maybe﹐maybe not. Do I get anything if I say yes﹖
Hopefully, now you do.
Don't have a reason to stick around﹐I guess․
You only just got here, why leave? ☹️
⠀ “⠀Fine ──── but I better be getting paid․ ⠀” ⠀
"Uhm. Does bodyguard mean anything to you?"
⠀ “⠀․ ․ ․ But why﹖You don't need me for anything․ ⠀” ⠀
"No, you aren't."
⠀ A necessity for air forcing a retreat of an inch ──── her tastes still lingering on his lips﹐prompting a swipe of his tongue along his own lips․ Cloud looked to her with a smirk﹐before speaking․ “⠀Getting cheeky․ ⠀” ⠀
⠀⠀ Through their kiss, she couldn’t help but grin, for it seemed his answer was the same as hers had always been. One just wasn’t enough. Two. Three. The deeper they dived, the more they wanted. Needed. She was glad the feeling was mutual. ⠀⠀
⠀ “⠀Pretty lively tonight․ Guess I better leave while I still have the chance․ ⠀” ⠀

⠀ Heh․ Guess we're both in the same boat․ Maybe it's worth considering some work before vacation then․ ⠀
