For a moment she wondered if he was the type who would "test" her to see if she was a feminist who would complain about how hard women have it compared to men before she answered. "Oh I think everyone has it rough these days... it just varies on what kind of challenge we end up facing." Sitting back, she took another sip of her drink. "For example... there is no way I could do what you do every day. I wouldn't be able to walk after my first practice. It's amazing to me that people like you can handle it," she said with a soft laugh.<br/><br/>His talk of family brought a pang of hurt to her chest, and Alexandra forced herself to smile through it even as she shoved the painful memories away, down deep inside ofher where she wouldn't have to face them and he wouldn't be able to see them. "It's really sweet of you to look after your family like that. Your sister probably doesn't realize right now what you are doing for her but one day she will, and she will thank you."<br/><br/>And then came the unexpected question of the night... he was asking her if she wanted to go for a walk on the beach with him. For just a moment, she wanted to let out an emphatic yes, just to be free of the music and the crowds, but then she remembered that morning, and the patron at the restaraunt who refused to take no for an answer, the way he had managed to overpower her without even trying... That guy had been a glorified frat boy, but this man? He got paid to be strong and fast. Heart picking up a bit in her chest, she forced her smile to remain in place as she struggled to find an answer that would satisfy both parts of her.There would be no security in shining armor waiting to save her out on the beach at this hour...<br/><br/>"I have a better idea," she finally said as she stood and set down his drink before grabbing his hand. "Follow me," she said with a smile before guiding him toward the front door and outside. She would walk with him, but they would stay close to the buildings, rather than going far from them. Plenty of privacy, but not so much that a scream for help would go unnoticed.
