<strong>Name:</strong><strong>Adell Zephyros</strong>(Color =<strong>Bolded Red</strong>)<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Out for Icecream.<br/><strong>Tagged:</strong>Eleanor Byrd Rose<br/><hr/><br/><div class="floatright">(http://img-cache.cdn.gaiaonline.com/3d7aebe92db19ffbe63200d2c27c9107/http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn249/ExSoldier-Of-Death/Adell1.png)</div>Adell already had his wallet out when Eleanor decided she'd pay for herself. The red-head was honestly shocked to hear such a response and he looked at her with a bit of confusion. Usually people never made a fuss whenever he offered to pay for something; he felt as if it was expected of him. Still, he wouldn't force his money on to her if she was so insistent on paying for herself. The song Ms. Independent started playing in his head and a smirk formed on his face.<strong>"Independent. I like that."</strong>So he took out just enough money for himself, but still kept his wallet close by just in case. She seemed very excited about the amount of choices, to the point where she spoke about it being a weakness of hers.<br/><br/><strong><em>"Honestly I think I would drop to my knees for anything sweet."</em></strong><br/><br/>The red-headed Meister's face went blank, but Lower Adell was quickly brought to attention at this statement. After a slight adjustment in his stance, Adell looked at his partner's innocent expression. He couldn't tell if she was teasing, or was truly oblivious to the highly suggestive statement she just made. Regardless, he couldn't help but form a mental image that involved flavored whip-cream and Lower Adell. Entertaining the idea in his mind didn't make him a pervert, did it? Eleanor would probably look sexy as hell on her knees; those big round eyes looking back up at him...<br/><br/><strong>~NO!~</strong><br/><br/>He was here for ice cream! Hopefully that would cool down his raging hormones. Finally, he received his cone and paid the man behind the counter. Afterwords, he took a step back to see if he could find a spot for them to sit. There were a few vacancies outside the shop, but it was pretty loud compared to the relaxing atmosphere of the store's interior. There was even a nice little booth in the far corner by a window they could sit at. Ultimately, he'd ask which his partner would rather occupy.<br/><br/>And that's when he heard it: the sly little compliment a male's voice directed towards Eleanor. Now, Adell Zephyros has never been known to be possessive. Even as a child, he would regularly share his toys with the other kids whether they tried to steal them or not. He isn't stingy, nor is he one to hoard his possessions. Even so,<strong>~who the hell does this guy think he is talking to Eleanor like that when I'm standing RIGHT HERE?!~</strong>The Meister slowly turned to view the man standing behind the counter. He had a stupidly generic nice-guy smile on his face as he inquired about their relationship status. That's when Adell too froze.<strong>~D-damn, is this guy serious? He's not pulling any punches!~</strong>What could the Meister say? What could he do? The two of them weren't an item: just partners. Sure, Adell thought she was very attractive, and yeah, he would love to be her boyfriend, but damn, he just met the girl and they just became partners! Shouldn't their relationship have some time to develop a little before jumping right in to bed with each other... not that... ya know, that's what he's expecting to happen.<br/><br/>Anger started to set in. This guy was really pushing some serious buttons, and Adell didn't appreciate it. He even had the audacity to ask her name and what she was doing later.<strong>~AS IF SHE'D EVER GO ANYWHERE WITH YOU!~</strong>Though the Meister kept his cool silently on the outside, his wavelength was on fire: literally melting the stawberry ice cream he held in his hand. When Eleanor said that, later, she planned on being with him, however, Adell was absolutely stunned. She even turned to him and asked if that would be okay.<strong>~Oh my God, this girl is perfect...~</strong><br/><br/>His wavelength instantly returned to normal as his soul happily skipped around within his heart. He gave a cool, charming smile to his partner before he spoke.<strong>"Of course. I'd really like that."</strong>On the outside, he was calm and collected, but on the inside, he was a general conquering his enemy: the ice cream clerk. That was when he realized his ice cream had completely melted and formed a pinkish gooey puddle on the floor. He looked, then gave an embarrassed laugh as he rubbed the back of his red hair.<strong>"Huh, would you look at that. The ice cream melted. Guess I'll need another one."</strong>His eyes fell upon the man behind the counter and he requested a replacement for the one that just melted.<strong>~AND DON'T FORGET TO CLEAN UP THIS MESS, ICE CREAM BOY!~</strong>Smoke fumed from the nostrils of the dragon that had possessed Adell's inner soul, but his polite smile was never shaken by this inner-beast.<br/><br/>After receiving his replacement cone, he nodded in appreciation before turning to face his partner.<strong>"How about we sit outside for while?"</strong>He wanted to get as far away from Ice cream Boy as possible. The last thing he needed was to beat the ice cream out of his brain if he tried to come on to Eleanor again.<br/><br/>Still, he couldn't get over the fact that the guy asked if they were a couple. Adell couldn't help but admit that Eleanor was an extraordinarily beautiful girl with an amazing body nonetheless. That alone would attract a lot of attention. How long could they go before she returned the feelings of some strange suitor? This was a very unsettling thought. Adell wanted to get to know her more; build a good relationship, and then once he was sure she liked him back, he'd ask if he could be her boyfriend. That was how it worked in his mind, anyway. Reality seemed to disagree with such a method. He wondered if she should ask for some outside advice in the matter, but who could he ask?<br/><br/>His parents were the last people he wanted to go to. After the previous experience they'd had with his recent ex, they did everything but put him on relationship probation. It was his own fault though. He knew that girl was bad news, but everybody makes mistakes, right? He could ask his friends... that might be a better option. Nazier and Karina got into a relationship pretty quickly with each other. Maybe they could provide the best advice.<strong>~No... I should trust my instincts.~</strong>That would be the most honest route to travel. Hopefully it won't lead him to a very lonely destination, or an awkward partnership...<br/><br/>Why is life so hard?
