Got a problem with me? (CAM)

[Lotus]

Noah was confused, beyond a doubt, but when he finally understood what Ravenna meant his face paled a little and he cleared his throat. He could of assured himself that the waiter was looking at Ravenna, but to be looking at him and have Ravenna laughing that just made it all the more awkward. He couldn't exactly shove the waiters pen up where the sun don't shine for one particular reason but he tried not to think about that.

When the waiter came back he caught the glance he sent Noah's way and he shot Ravenna a look of desperation as he shifted around in his seat. "You're dinner will arrive shortly." The waiter seemed to purr out and Noah could only nod his head stiffly in the direction. He went to reach out for his glance to take a sip just as the waiter turned to leave. Before Noah could even understand what was happening the waiter trailed his fingertips up Noah's arm before disappearing to another table.

Noah's eyes were wide as he looked back at Ravenna. He cleared his throat and tried not to see how shocked he was about such a thing happening to him, but she seemed to be enjoying herself. "Well... Err... At least I know I'm just so god damn attractive I can get both sides attention." He chuckled awkwardly before taking a sip of his drink.

[Cham]

Ravenna watched the procession unfold whilist she giggled softly, the waiter was trying SO HARD to seduce Noah, and didnt seem to be getting the hints that he just wasnt interested. But coming to his rescue when the waiter really did take it too far, touching him. She felt a pang of jealousy, and pulled Noah back in his seat, shooting a warning glance at the waiter who blushed and retreated.

Kissing Noah's cheek and biting her lower lip, "Well you are one sexy mother-" she blushed a little "I almost forgot, ladies dont use those words..." Then chuckling "To hell with it, im no lady. Youre one fucking sexy mother fucker, and everyone fucking knows it"

[Lotus]

Noah was still a little shocked, but Ravenna brought him back to reality and helped him shake it all off. He grinned down at her, with a glint in his eyes at the words that came out of her mouth. He shook his head and leant down to kiss her on the lips, his hands moving to sit on her thighs. He pulled back grinning like an idiot as he whispered, "You said it. Not me. I am now in my very own class of sexy mother-fuckers."

He sat back in his chair and glanced across the restaurant before bringing his attention back to Ravenna. He smiled softly at her as she gazed back at him. "Well, I lied. I'm definitely not in that class all on my own." He leant forwards and kissed her cheek, trying to be a gentleman.

[Cham]

Ravenna smiled when Noah leaned down to kiss her, and kissed him right on back. But when his hand slipped onto her thigh, her eyes glimmered with amusement. Tsking at him "Not yet my sexy motherfucker" She whispered, sitting back in her chair, her hand on his, stopping him.

He seemed to give up at that moment, and she took the opportunity as he looked around to study him. Even when he had simply thrown a suit on, he looked immaculate. His 'just fucked' hairstyle seemed to fit regardless of the occasion. And she loved it.

He leaned toward her, kissing her cheek, and she grinned softly, a little blush kissing her cheeks as she straightened his tie a little. Rolling her eyes at his comment. Smirking, she nodded toward the waiter who carried their plates on a wide tray "Your right" She whispered into his ear "Youve got this waiter just waiting to shove his 'pen' up where the sun dont shine"

[Lotus]

Noah's mouth physically dropped when those words slipped out of her mouth. He wasn't embarrassed or awkward often, but Ravenna managed to bring that side of him out just because he was that comfortable around her. And true to her word, the waiter turned up with their food, openly gawking at him as he set the plates on their table. The food smelt great, but he couldn't admire it because the stupid waiter was still standing there.

Slowly Noah brought his head up from where he'd dropped it to look at his lap. He heard Ravenna laughing softly and all he wanted to do was plead to her that this wasn't a good thing to happen. He had Ravenna and that was all he ever wanted. Sure, he had nothing wrong with someone that liked the same sex but it was just incredibly awkward for him to accept when it was directed towards him and he was on a date. The bad thing was, when he got too embarrassed and awkward Noah turned viscous towards the person causing it.

And the waiter still hadn't got the hint from Noah's glare that he should walk away and leave them alone. His glare deepened and this time the waiter finally looked scared. "You need to leave." He growled out and the waiter finally took a step back before composing himself; the cocky idiot.

"Well I take that as I have no chance with someone as hot as you then?"

Noah nodded his head stiffly, his hands clenching under the table. "You could sure get someone as hot as I am, but not me. So I suggest you turn around and get the hell away from me." With that the waiter finally sauntered away, his ego apparently not affected by Noah's words. He sighed and dropped his head back down to look at his lap. "I'm glad you found that funny Ravenna..." His voice was quite and he closed his eyes to try and compose himself. Losing himself like that wasn't a turn on to anyone and he hated that side of him. It was his way of hiding his embarrassment, and it definitely wasn't a good way because it got him into serious trouble.

[Cham]

This time Ravenna was the one left with her jaw hanging. Noah had seethed at the gay waiter, and she was honestly surprised. Though she couldnt blame him. The waiter was hanging around too long to be anything good. Ven didnt really know why she was still chuckling, but it was awkward and uncomfortable. More like she didnt know what else to do.

But once the waiter left, she felt guilty. If she hadnt brought it to Noah's attention, then he probably wouldnt have gotten so upset. She scooted closer to him, and took his hand. It was clenched in a fist, but she took it anyways, gently rubbing his forearm to try and relax him until finally with a sigh, he unclenched his fist. She took his hand, interlocking her fingers with his and leaned her forehead against his jaw.

"Im sorry babe. He went too far. I didnt think it was funny, i just didnt know how to react either..." Nudging him "Well at least everyone agrees that youre hot..." Kissing his cheek, and rubbing his back softly "Dont be angry sweetheart. Im sorry... Ill go talk to the manager and get a new waiter"

[Lotus]

Noah slowly relaxed and it was all because of Ravenna. He leant in to her and sighed softly, "Don't do that. I'll forget about it and I doubt with my attitude he'll be wanting to come back for fear of me eating him alive." He smiled sadly down to her and brought his now unclenched hands up to cup the sides of her neck gently. "I'm sorry for ruining dinner. I just get angry when I'm embarrassed and awkward." He leant down and softly placed his lips against hers. "If you want to just go I'll be more than happy to oblige."

When he saw the look of determination on her face though he smiled properly. "Don't go doing anything Ravenna. This night was to spoil you and all I've done so far is spoil the night. Let me make it up to you?"

[Cham]

Ravenna nearly stopped breathing when he placed his hands on the side of her neck. For some reason it sent adrenaline rushing through her system. Probably because she had been fighting more that usually today. She calmed herself down inside her own head, and listened to him, leaning up gently into his soft kiss, a small smile letting her relax into her seat. "We dont need to leave, nothing was your fault, he pushed too hard."

She was still going to do something. The waiter had CLEARLY pushed the bounds too far. It was inappropriate enough to be ogling the customers, but to actually confront one of them? Whilist still on the job? No. That was much too far. She was about to stand up, when Noah pulled her back down. She cuddled up to him a little, and leaned up to peck his lips. "My love, you dont need to make it up to me. He needs to apologize." Noah looked serious though, and she sighed, leaning her head into his neck "Alright. Ill walk to the manager when we leave."

[Lotus]

Noah breathed out a thank you and kissed her softly on the lips again. "I love you Ravenna." He smiled softly and rested his forehead against hers as he calmed down properly. "Now, why don't we eat before this food gets cold. Otherwise we'll never get out of here to do something spontaneous and fun." He grinned and pulled back, but waited for Ravenna to take the first bite before starting his own meal.

The rest of the dinner went smoothly and the idiotic waiter hadn't returned. The food was lovely and the atmosphere was calm and loving, something Noah wasn't exactly used to. He kept glancing at Ravenna all through dinner, taking in her beauty but when she would glance up he either glanced away or smiled sheepishly at being caught ogling her at the dinner table.

They finished up and Noah sat back as they chatted for a little while. "Shall I get the bill?"

[Cham]

"I love you too baby" She murmured against his lips, drinking in the scent of him, her eyes shut for the time being. When she opened them, she found his peering out at her. Blushing softly, she nodded her head and took a bite of her food, humming softly along with the soothing music that played from the speakers.

Every once in a while she would peek up at her date, and find his eyes already on her, either appreciating her figure, or simply gazing lovingly towards her. Her cheeks would flame red, and as would his.

Patting his knee, she stood, and grabbed the little clutch purse she had brought along "No, i think I will" She said, glancing up and making eye contact with the waiter, signaling for the bill. She murmured under her breathe "It means he has to get across me to get to you if i pay." The waiter came to the table, and she smiled, asking to speak to the management.

[Lotus]

Noah shook his head, not liking what Ravenna was doing. "Baby, you said you wouldn't do anything-" but he was cut off when the waiter appeared at the table. Instantly his direction was drawn to Noah and he glared back, letting ever ounce of venom drip into the glare before the waiter finally turned away when Ravenna spoke to him. Noah kept his head down after that and when the waiter left to get management he brushed his hand down Noah's arm again and that was when Noah lost it.

Noah stood up, rattling the table from the abruptness. "What did you not understand about leaving me alone?" The waiter turned back around, supposedly seductively, and reached out to run his hand down Noah's chest. All Noah could do was stand still, shocked, until his brain caught up and he was in the waiters face with his collar gripped in his iron grasp. "You are disgusting. Do you not realise I don't want this? Do you not realise I have a date and the most beautiful fucking date in this whole god-damn district? Now leave me the fuck alone and go and find someone else to play around with, I'm done!" He growled out, shoving the waiter away. Luckily, their secluded part of the restaurant meant they gained very little attention from the other customers.

Soon Noah felt a hand on his shoulder and he turned round to see Ravenna standing there, glaring at the waiter who was still on the floor and grinning! Grinning! "I'm so sorry baby..."

[Cham]

Ravenna's blood boilt when she saw the seductive touch of the waiter on Noah, but she only had an ounce more self restraint than him. Noah lost it, and she could tell things were NOT going to go well if she didnt intervene. Pulling Noah back, and literally pushing him back down into his seat, ignoring his words, simply concerned with getting him out of the situation.

She turned around to see the waiter standing himself up and straightening his uniform, a smile on his lips. She seethed anger when she turned to face him. He licked his teeth sensually towards Noah, and she was done. Launching herself at him, shoving him back into the wall, and hearing a crack of both his wrist and the Sheetrock. Her fist connected with his face hard enough to bloody his nose. But she felt hands around her waist, pulling her back.

Turning on the man behind her, and swinging before she recognized it was Noah. Her fist connected with his cheek, and she gasped in pain, stopping and stepping back, holding her fist in pain against her stomach "FUCK!" She shouted, watching Noah stumble back, looking shocked.

[Lotus]

Noah couldn't let anything happen to Ravenna and that was all he thought as his hands wrapped around her waist. Well, that was all he thought until her fist connected with his cheek and he staggered back. He didn't even have time to ask if she was okay because he was in utter shock. And to make matters even worse management finally turned up.

"What the hell is going on here?"

This time Noah tried to speak calmly. "You have a rude waiter here that hits on customers when they're trying to have a nice meal. Even when I told him to leave me alone he persisted in his goals to gain my attention. And he caught he. He touched me inappropriately and completely ignored my girlfriend when she tried to talk to him when getting the bill. He's completely and utterly ruined our evening and it's safe to say we won't be coming back here."

The manager looked like he'd just wet himself. "I'm so sorry Mr Culver. I do apologise on behalf of everyone about the time you've been having. I shall be having words with this waiter. Who is she?"

Noah shook his head, "He is standing there with a bloody nose."

"Very... Very well Mr. Culver. Please accept our apologies by having your meal free of charge. We really hope you do come back here and this has not put your experience off completely."

Noah nodded his head curtly. "Thank you. Very much appreciated. I hope you sort your staff out quickly 'cause I dread to think what other customers have had to endure."

"Yes sir." With that Noah started to walk away, grabbing Ravenna by the elbow and leading her out. Just as the came out of ear shot he heard the manager hissing at the more than likely soon to be fired waiter, "Do you even realise who that is?"

They made it outside into the cool air and Noah relaxed at once. "Finally." Then he turned to Ravenna, "I'm so sorry about this whole night. It's been completely ruined. Shall we just go home?" He asked, completely forgetting about the punch he took to the cheek and her hand.

[Cham]

Ravenna had slunk back to the table and grabbed one of the napkins, dumping the empty glass's ice into it, and pressing it gingerly to her hand. It had started to swell a little, but Noah's cheek was red enough as it was. She kept herself quiet and let Noah take care of the problem. How was it that he always seemed to be cleaning up the messes she created? And one day would he just have enough and give up?

The thought made her stomach turn, and her face pale as he grabbed her elbow and escorted her outside. Once they were out, she slipped off the cheap metal ring that was now bent around her middle finger. Gritting her teeth as it scraped the already raw feeling flesh.

Ven smiled up at him "Its not your fault baby. I snapped. It just. They way he. And then" She stuttered, and shook her head, looking at the ground, murmuring "I should have held my temper..." A simple shrug, then replacing the now damp napkin on her fist before looking up to him, turning his head gently to the side "I think heading home would probably be the best idea. We can doctor each other up, grab some champagne on the way home... My treat"

[Lotus]

Noah shook his head softly and smiled sadly. "No, it's not your treat. Tonight was my night to spoil you and all I've done so far is ruin the majority of it. The only thing I haven't managed to ruin is how god-damn sexy you still look, especially when dressed like that and throwing an punch. Even if aimed at me." He snaked his arm around her waist and brought her close, kissing her softly. "And boy do you pack one hell of a punch." He grinned and kissed her nose before pulling back, but keeping one arm wrapped around her waist and taking her sore hand in his own gently.

"Now, let's me go buy this champagne and we can head home." They did exactly that. They got stared at and the majority of their walk was them glaring at by-passers that dared to look at the other in a lustful way. Noah was completely on edge, but when the walk up to their front door came in to view he visibly relaxed. "Maybe we can carry on the night without anymore further interruptions?" He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively and chuckled before kissing her on the cheek and opening the front door.

[Cham]

Ven smiled up at Noah, shaking her head softly at how tame he seemed now compared to only a few minutes ago. "I hope youll be less parinoid now that you know how hard i can hit when im pissed." Sighing softly, she conceded to let him pay, leaning into him a little, and drawing on his strength. All the adrenaline had left her tired again, even after her nap earlier. She just wanted to get home and relax.

After picking out a reasonably priced champagne, and one more argument, this time over who would carry it, they headed home. Finally within reach of rest. "I dunno, there might be a few interruptions here and there..." Smiling softly, and cocking one eyebrow up.

Biting her lower lip and giggling softly as they entered the house. Storm came up looking a little wary, and immediately Ven tensed, thinking something was wrong. But he merely walked up to her, sniffer her injured hand and licking it, as though he could heal it. She petted him softly, and watched as Noah grabbed the two flukes and poured them both a glass.

Before she accepted the glass, she turned around, locking the door, and pulled her hair over her shoulder. Taking the glass and murmuring "Cheers darling" Before taking a sip "Should we go upstairs? Perhaps change into something more comfortable?" Though her eyes held visions of something else besides relaxing...

[Lotus]

Noah shook his head once more at Ravenna's request after he'd handed her her champagne. "No, first I have to clean you up okay?" He smiled softly and directed her to a chair in the dining room before grabbing everything and anything he could need out of the first aid cupboard. He saw Ravenna's raise eyebrow and he felt a little embarrassed as his cheeks grew hotter, but he simply shrugged his shoulders, "I'll always be overcautious when it comes to you and your safety."

It was strange how quickly his mood could chance and it was very odd that he actually didn't mind being embarrassed and awkward in front of Ravenna because he loved her more than anything. She was the girl he was most comfortable around and he didn't care what side of her he saw, unless it was his player side and then that he tried to hide as best he could.

After finishing cleaning Ravenna's knuckles he wrapped it up in a bandage after putting some salve on it and kissed the bandage. "There, all good." He chuckled softly and took a sip from his champagne glass, his cheek completely forgotten. "Now, I will take you up on the offer to go upstairs to change into something more comfortable."

[Cham]

Ven smiled, and tried once more to 'persuade' him, her hands on his chest gently. His eyes dilated, but he was firm in his stead. She pouted, but allowed him to lead her into the dining room, sitting and watching as he took such care to keep her from hurting. It took twice as long as if she hadve tended herself, but in the end, it was the utmost perfection.

Yet somehow it had her squirming in her seat. The way he looked up at her, his eyes softened with love. She found herself gazing at him with her mouth parted slightly, her heart beating fast. His cheek seemed to be fine, he was tough, and it was only a little red, a single scrape from where her bent ring had caught him.

Nodding her head softly, she left her champagne where it was, emptied and on the table. Leaning forward and lustfully kissing him, her hands slipping into his hair. Somehow she managed to keep it from becoming too passionate, more love than lust.

[Lotus]

Noah grinned beneath the kiss and had no trouble kissing her back with all the love he could pour into it. He pulled back only briefly to scoop Ravenna up into his arms, bridal style, and all but run up the stairs. Storm came bounding after them and Noah made a mental note to kick him out if anything got too physical. In the bedroom he laid he sat gently on the bed, holding her in his arms as he kissed her again.

He pulled back and rested his forehead against hers, catching his breath. "This may sound weird to ask now but do you want to see Moni tomorrow? I miss her already, and we have a lot to catch her up on..." He smiled a little bashfully as one hand trailed down to the zip on the back of her dress, teasing it until he had an answer from her.

[Cham]

Ven giggled, squealing a little when Noah scooped her up, she hadnt been expecting it, then all of the sudden there she was, up off the ground. She felt breathless, and stuck to little kisses up and down his neck, sucking softly on his earlobe, nuzzling him. A moment later, she let her heels slip off her feet, falling onto the stairs, forgotten immediately.

It didnt take long for him to plop down on the bed. She moved so she straddled his lap, wrapping her legs around his torso, and hooking her ankles together. Biting her lower lip, and smiling at him. Listening, and watching his eyes light up when he spoke about his little sister. Thinking fr a moment, her entire body shuddered when he played his fingers up and down her zipper "Stop that, i cant think when you touch me" A soft smile showing the pleasure he gave her.

Though she already had an answer "Yes. I would love to have her over. Shes a sweetheart"

[Lotus]

Noah chuckled softly and kissed her on the nose, "Thank you baby. We can take her to the beach or something?" He knew he didn't need to really ask that question because he knew Moni would love the beach, she always had done; even though she couldn't see it. She loved the smell and the sounds of the beach, it was her place to retreat to if she wanted peace. "You'll just have to make sure I don't baby her 'cause I know she's getting to old for it and probably doesn't like it like she used to." He whispered softly as he sighed sadly.

His fingers played with the zip on her dress this time and he slowly started to un-zip it down her back, letting his fingers trail across her bare skin every no and again. "I love you."

[Cham]

Ven scrunched her face up when he kissed her nose, smiling gently. "We can do whatever you want baby, or whatever she want. I just want you two to be happy" His smile lit her happiness,and she grinned, leaning forward and kissing him chastely.

But his smile turned from wistful to carnal when his fingers toyed with her skin. Her eyes had a knowing look in them, and her breath hitched with every inch as he slowly let her out of the dress. She finally could breathe again when he pulled it down off of her. His eyes gazing at her. But for once she didnt feel ashamed. It was simaler to the bathtub. She didnt feel like he was gazing hungrily at her, but more lovingly.

[Lotus]

Noah grinned and stood up, only to lower Ravenna down onto the bed. He stood back up and let his eyes travel up and down her body, "Perfect." he whispered out before he lowered himself down next to her. He entwined his fingers of both hands with hers and rested his forehead against hers. "I want to know everything about you Ravenna." He breathed out, "Will you tell me?"

He rolled over, pulling her with him as he shifted up the bed, cradling her in his arms. "A bit like twenty questions from when we were in high school." He chuckled at all his memories, other than his player memories. It was strange how all of a sudden he wanted to know more about her but he just put it down to years of waiting for her, and he didn't want to spend it all being physical.

[Cham]

Ven pulled her hair back and up so it cascaded over the linen beneath hr, trying to make herself look more appealing to him. But he surprised her, laying himself down next to her, questioning about her life. Feeling a soft sting in her gut. Wondering if some of the things she would say could possibly drive him away.

But why would they? He had been there through the years, silently observing her. He had witness some of her less appealing looks. So why would he leave her when he found out the why behind them? She made her decision.

"Well, i cant think of anythig off the top of my head. But if you ask me a question, i will answer it the bst i can" She smiled softly and leaned in to kiss him gently. "I wish we hadve had this kind of 20 questions in highschool. Though you are kindof cheating. You get some eye candy and I dont?" She pouted, then laughed.

[Lotus]

Noah chuckled and shook his head softly, sitting up to slip his tie and shirt off before shrugging himself out of his dress pants. "Better?" He turned to her with a raised eyebrow and grinned before lying back down and wrapping his arms around her.

Noah kissed the top of her head and sighed, "I wish I'd have had the guts to have twenty questions with you in high school." He trailed his fingers over her stomach before entwining his fingers of one hand with one of hers. "Okay, so tell me this. Why did I never, ever see you with a boyfriend?"
