OOm - Eric's room, late night
Jul. 21st, 2014 04:57 pmAfter having finished his little intermezzo with Jay Eric returns to his room.
He pushes the door open and locks it behind him, once he is inside. Old habits and all.
He strips off his wife beater and toes off his boots right inside the door. He could do with a shower.
His laptop is on.
"What are you looking at?" he asks Pam, as his jeans go the way of boots and wife beater.

The first thing she feels is her hand still joined with Eric's.
As much as she enjoys sleeping alone in her pink designer coffin, it's nice waking up next to such a reassuring presence.
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 02:49 pm (UTC)Still. Cold. Silent.
He obviously feels safe here. Seeing in like this.
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 03:55 pm (UTC)Not yet, anyway. She understands that time stops on the other side of the door, but she'll need to get back home soon. There's only so much of this place she can take in one go.
And she definitely won't tell Ginger about Milliways. God, no.

Date: 2014-07-23 04:29 pm (UTC)Then he stretches.
One of the many reasons he prefers beds to coffins when he has a choice.
Then he strokes himself. Just once.
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 05:05 pm (UTC)Opening her eyes, she then turns her head. And she smirks, mostly to herself. She'd always liked the view from her side of the bed.
"Hello."
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 05:44 pm (UTC)Large and pale and naked.
"Slept well?"
It's not as pointless as it might seem. Vampires can dream in their sleep.
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 06:33 pm (UTC)"Uh-huh. You? And by the way, if I get a room here, I'm going to need a bed just like this one, and then maybe I can entertain my own flapper chicks."
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 06:44 pm (UTC)He hadn't expected to, but there it was.
"And you should get a room. It makes it so much easier when it comes to food. And sex for that matter."
He stretches again and then he gets out of bed.
"Are you going back tonight?"
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 07:00 pm (UTC)She lays there for a moment, watching him, before propping her head up on her hand, looking like a pink tracksuited Barbie in a vampire dream bed.
"Yeah, I should. I know time stops but just the thought of Ginger on her own makes me nervous. Are you going back to Dallas?"
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 07:11 pm (UTC)"Yeah, I can understand that."
He walks across the room and picks up his clothes, saying, "I'll likely stay a night or two here, but it won't matter on the other side. I'll be home soon."
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 07:22 pm (UTC)"Not ready to go back yet?" she ventures softly.
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 07:32 pm (UTC)"Almost."
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 07:44 pm (UTC)It seems as if Milliways can give people a break now and then if they need it.
Sitting up, she slides off the bed and picks up her dress and shoes, heading for the bathroom.
"I'm going to get ready. I won't be long."
(That's what they all say.)
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 07:46 pm (UTC)(It likely can't be. And he wouldn't be anyway. But he still has to say it.)
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 08:08 pm (UTC)An hour and a half passes by, which in Lady Time translates to about forty-five minutes, and three hours in Man Time.
Pam emerges from the bathroom looking almost exactly the same as when she stepped into Milliways several nights ago -- super-high heels, tight little vinyl mini-dress, perfect hair and makeup.
How she accomplished this will remain a secret.
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 08:16 pm (UTC)He too looks like he did when he stepped into Milliways. It is less of a feat in his case.
He doesn't comment on the time, because only fools engage in pointless arguments. Especially, if they cannot in them.
Instead, he says, "I like your hair." Because he does. And because he knows that he isn't always easy.
no subject
Date: 2014-07-23 11:57 pm (UTC)She smiles at him pleasantly before setting down the folded-up tracksuit and makeup bag on one of the chairs by the low table. She then crosses over to where Eric is sitting at the desk.
"Do me?"
Flipping her hair to the side, she turns around.
Her dress is unzipped.
no subject
Date: 2014-07-24 05:22 am (UTC)"There," he says."All set."
no subject
Date: 2014-07-24 05:37 am (UTC)After tucking her clothes and bag under one arm, she turns to him with a hand on her hip.
"Got anything I should take care of back home? Granted, they might not actually get done, but at least I'll know what needs to be done."
Hey, she's honest.
no subject
Date: 2014-07-24 05:44 am (UTC)"And my car needs an oil change."
The latter, especially, being done would surprise him.
"And you should probably talk with that dancer - ah, I see what you are doing."
Narrowing his eyes a little at her.
no subject
Date: 2014-07-24 05:58 am (UTC)"I'm sorry, what exactly am I doing...?"
no subject
Date: 2014-07-24 06:12 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2014-07-24 06:17 am (UTC)"Well, I'm not objecting to the possibility," she finally admits.
"Maybe for a human one this time. And female."
no subject
Date: 2014-07-24 06:20 am (UTC)Then he says, "Well, I suppose , when things have settled down, that we can have an audition."
The indulgent father.
no subject
Date: 2014-07-24 06:35 am (UTC)"I'll start working on the flyers."
The spoiled daughter.
