Salai watched the adorable way Analise tilted her head as a warm rd glow came to get cheeks. "None of that, Analise. Lies do not become you," he chides playfully. A tender kind of mischief twinkled in his eyes as he favored her with a warm and sexy smile. He moved closer to her, happy to feel the tide turn his way rather then the way of whatever was pulling her away from him.<br/><br/>When Salai nodded yes to Analise's request, his cheek brushed along hers for a long, lingering moment.  She felt his hands rest upon her hips as she slipped by him; his way of letting her know he liked the feel of her body pressed against his. He released his hold on her so she could go out for her smoke and with every step she could feel the heart of his gaze upon her. Clearly, now that he'd meet her he had no intentions of letting her just disappear from his life.<br/><br/>"Careful, Sa-boy," Sweet Maggie  said to him in a friendly tone. "She's got a look about her," she mused and Salai nodded for reasons other then those she meant. She caught that and gave him a sisterly clout on the shoulders to force him to focus in the moment. "She's got a heart, that one does, but demons," she warns. "The sort she can't be saved from," she says trying to get her words to sink in. They fall on deaf ears though so she just shakes her head and leaves the check on the table. There's sympathetic understanding in her eyes, not pity, as she goes to serve another table as he gets out his wallet and places his credit card on the bill for her to sweep up the next time she passes the table.<br/><br/>The fellow on the bench makes no move that betrayed any interest in the blond who sat beside him. He blinked and looked her way when she cleared her throat.  He listened to the question and answered in just a cagey a manner, "And if?"  Never admitting he had anything for sale but intimating 'if he did, then what?' He paid her only a modicum of his attention, so passerby's might just think they were two strangers on a bench, not a pair of criminals engaged in the sale of illegal goods.
