Zatara
With another sinister giggle, she leaned up to his ear, her voice dropping to a whisper.
“You said we’d figure something out, right?” Her lips brushed his ear as she spoke.
Outwardly, she was the picture of sexy confidence. On the inside? The butterflies in her stomach flapped their wings wildly. What if he didn’t want this? What if he thought she seemed desperate? When she decided being confident with him was the best route, she hasn’t anticipated it being so terrifying.
Well, this really was happening. That reality hit him when her words sent a chill down his spine. He shouldn’t be surprised about this, but he was. He almost planned on for it to happen and yet didn’t. For some reason there was something tugging at him in the back of his mind. Why should he even be second guessing himself about this? She seemed to want to do this, and he knew that he did, there shouldn’t be an issue. The thoughts were dismissed quickly as he studied her closely.
“That I did,” his voice sounded as if he were teasing her. The magician was becoming just as nervous and excited about this as she was as they stood there. He bit down on his lower lip in a failed attempt to hide his smirk.

To the cave~
Zaiden had been anticipating his trip to the cave all day. He was both nervous and excited about it, and not sure how he should approach it. Should he dress up for this? He didn’t know. It was just the cave, but he wanted to make an impression. But not an obvious one.. why was he over thinking this? He decided to just go with a black long-sleeve dress shirt and belted black pants. Simple. Whatever. Should he give her flowers or something? But he just gave her some.. These little tedious decisions gnawed at him all through the evening as he waited to leave.
He tried his best to be very calm about this. The two of them being alone in the cave, that is. Certain situations would prove to be… difficult. Thinking about them was what was making him so edgy.
Quickly, he attempted to shake those thoughts out of his head before he zeta’d into the cave. ‘Zatara 25’ echoed through the cave’s entrance as the magician appeared in a flash of light and stepped through the tube. Alright, remain calm, and enjoy yourself. This is your girlfriend and she’s the love of your life. Don’t miraculously screw this up.
“Dixie?” he spoke loudly as he walked through the entrance and towards the living room. “You’re in here, right?”
The teenager entered the room and let a smile creep on his lips when he saw her sitting on the couch.
“Dixie? You’re in here, right?”
A sweeping feeling of deja vu washed over her, and a bright smile spread across her features. Her voice sent a slight tremor down her spine already.
“Ah, yeah I’m in th—”
Before she had a chance to finish, he was standing not too far from her. She stood, approaching him. “Hey Zai~” She smirked a little, her arms wrapping around his neck. They were all too close already.
“Good to see you” She giggled in an almost sinister way, blinking up at him, eyes unobstructed by her dark eyewear. She hardly wore them anymore, but him pulling them off of her in frustration was a common occurrence the first time they dated.
The magician returned the smirk as he slowly placed his hands around her waist. “Hey Dixie,” he spoke before planting a kiss on her lips. “It’s good to see you, too.” The smile returned as he continued, “So what do you have planned for us?”
Somehow he figured that this was going to go faster than he expected. And he wasn’t sure how to feel about it exactly. He was worried that if they moved too fast, this wouldn’t end well. But if it did turn out that way… it would be a lie to say that he didn’t want it. Badly.

To the cave~
Dixie paced around the cave nervously, tugging on her clothes. She wanted everything to be perfect, but her anxiety was getting the better of her.
With a few steps over to the table, she smiled. The roses he gave her the night of his show. They were still alive and kicking. Dix briefly wondered if they were alive still because of magic, or if she was just taking good care of them. Still, flowers start dying once they’re cut, don’t they?
She shook the thought away and strolled back to the living room. Unable to decide where to wait so she didn’t look like she was waiting, she sat on the couch. Her foot bounced against the floor, her leg shaking quickly.

So I just realised. A lot of people, when you say you have a friend on the internet, go “but you don’t know! They could be a middle aged man pretending to be an teenage girl!”
They dont know that most of these people are my RP partners.
And are teenage girls pretending to be middle aged men.
Hey. Zai. Listen.
Uh, can’t help but noticed you’re being…interrogated. -awkward giggle- Uh, sorry about that. I tried to tell them to go easy on you but, uh…they come from a place of love for me. Not hate for you. Okay?
The “close friends have to approve” thing and whatnot.
I can’t wait ‘til tomorrow.
-laughs- No, it’s fine. I get where they’re coming from.
I can’t wait, either. -smirks-
It’s alright. I’m not thinking about it. We both made a lot of mistakes back then. We’re older, wiser, and more honest now. I’m not concerned. And you shouldn’t be either.
-blushes a little and grins- Good, good. Any specific plan? Just sitting in the cave isn’t terribly entertaining~ -smirks back-
I’m not thinking about it now, either. But I understand why they’re giving me a friendly reminder. -shrugs and smiles-
Oh, I’m sure we’ll think of something.

*nods his head once. How do you threaten someone without…threatening someone? Eh. To hell with it.* Listen, Dixie-stix is…like my little sister. And you. *he takes a step forward, smiling, still trying to keep it light* You have the ability to break her heart. And that is why I’m here. Follow?
-nods- I understand.
*he crosses his arms and sighs* She’s a good kid. An’ I know you guys got some history, right? Just…try not to do anything dumb, man. She’s special.
I know she is. -smiles- That’s why I’m not planning on having history repeat itself.
*raises an eyebrow* You wanna be with her how? Like a girlfriend? *makes sure to smile so things seem light*
Yeah, like a girlfriend. Or whatever she wants us to be.
