[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Great."

"I will scream," she threatened in a whisper.
"Try it, doll face," he murmured, a grin on his face.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Thanks. Glad you have such faith in my skills."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I have plenty of faith."

She opened her mouth to say something else, but he silenced her with a kiss. She clenched her eyes shut and pushed against him, to no avail.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Oh, good."

James sighed and decided to get up and see what they were up to. "Seriously, you two, is it too much to ask that--" he stopped short when he saw them. "Guess so," he whispered.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Did you doubt me?"

Tom pulled away and shook his head. "Listen, I believe in first dates..."
"What?" she whispered, eyes wide and mouth agape.
"Look, I..." he turned around and saw James, "Oh."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

She sighed and shook her head in mock sorrow. "You know, sometimes I think you'd rather I did so you'd have a reason to be rid of us all."

He bit his lip and nodded to himself. "All right, okay," he said, feigning the casualness he knew he didn't have the ability to feel. "Good." And then he was backing out of the kitchen and grabbing his things before a second thought occurred to him.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I'm shocked," he scoffed.

Ray went after him and grabbed his arm. "James, wait," she pleaded.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Ooh, I brought forth another wild emotion," she replied, grinning.

He stopped but didn't look at her. "What?" he asked, although the question wasn't in his voice. He didn't want to know.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Do you want applause this time?"

"What are you doing?"

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"That would be lovely."

James sighed and took a step back. "I don't know."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Good joke," he said, grinning slightly.

She let her hand drop. "You know I would never do something to hurt you, James."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"You think I was joking?"

He ran a hand through his hair. "Yeah. I just have to think."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"You expect me to clap for you," he said flatly, raising his eyebrows.

"Fine," she murmured, dropping her eyes.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"You offered," she replied innocently.

He softened and hesitantly touched her cheek with his fingertips. "There's a lot to sort out, no matter who's fault it is," he murmured. "I won't be gone long. You can explain everything to me when I get back." And he backed towards the door again.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

He opened his mouth to retort then shut it and shook his head.

"Wait, you're leaving?" she asked, her voice cracking at the end. She took a step towards him.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

She grinned at his speechlessness.

"Your house isn't big enough to hold all my thoughts," he replied, trying to make an offhand joke. It didn't really work. "All I really plan to do is go for a walk. I'll be back."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Really?"

"Are you lying to me?"

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Honestly? I wanted to see how far I could take the joke. You need to work on your reading skills."

"If I'm not back by tonight, contact me and I'll let you know what's going on."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Does that mean I don't have to clap for you?"

"Okay," she said quietly, taking a step back.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"No you don't," she replied, laughing. "Though you can if you want to."

"You'll be fine," he promised, then disappeared into the hallway.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I'll consider it."

Tom followed after him, not forgetting to flash Ray a mischevious grin on his way out. Ray grinded her teeth, resisting the urge to throw something at him.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Ooh, thanks."

He was halfway down the stairs before he heard footsteps a ways behind him, and didn't bother to turn around. He didn't care just yet.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"You're welcome. This way," he said, pulling on her arm as he turned the corner of the street.

Tom slid down the stair rail and landed half a flight above James. "Hey man, hold on," he called after him.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Are we very close?"

James sighed but came to a stop. "What do you want?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Very nearly."

He leaned against the wall and crossed his arms. "I hope this gives you a reality check."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"All right."

"You know, I really don't feel like talking about this right now," he said, starting down the stairs again.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"What? Can't wait to see him?" he teased.

"No, you need to talk about this now," he said and followed him.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"You're so funny."

"With you?" he asked sharply, glancing at him over his shoulder.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Well?" he asked, "You didn't answer my question."

Tom halted and his mouth twitched slightly. "Yes with me."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"I just want to get this over with. You still doubt my impartial-ness, don't you?" she asked, looking up at him.

He sighed. "Fine. Talk."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I can still ask."

"This is exactly what I was talking about, man."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"That means yes."

"I have no idea what you're talking about."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

He shook his head and said nothing, smiling slightly.

"I warned you about getting attached."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"What?"

"Yeah, a few hours ago."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"He's around here somewhere," he said, looking around as they entered a park.

"I told you the same thing when we first started working. Girls are trouble; you know that."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Aren't you a nice little GPS," she teased.

"Yeah, well, I figured I was out of trouble when I got a new job."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Recalculating."

"This applies to all situations. She's done this to you before, hasn't she?"

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

She laughed. "Can you narrate your actions more often? It's hilarious."

"Ah... no?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I'll see what I can do," he smiled.

He raised his eyebrows.

((coughseth sortofcough))

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Excellent."

((yeah, he was just hesitating))

"Well, maybe once. But I'm pretty sure it was a misunderstanding."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"There he is," Edward said, indicating to the sulky blonde sitting on a park bench not to far away.

((alright xD))

"A misunderstanding, huh?" he said and rolled his eyes.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

((gtg))

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

((aww, byeas!))

"Wow, you're pretty good."

"Maybe?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Why, thank you."

"Exactly. Listen, it's best for you to cut ties now."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Any time."

"Why?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

Draco looked up when he saw them approaching and stood up quickly. "How did you two find me?"
"Easy: you smell."
"I beg your pardon?"

"So this doesn't happen again."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"He has fifteen senses; don't waste your time with offense."

James rolled his eyes. "Whatever, man, I'll deal with it on my own."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Fifteen, really?" Edward asked.
"What do you want?" Draco muttered.

"Alright, then, deal with it on your own. Just consider taking a break, then. Come with me for a bit."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"First thing that popped into my head." She shrugged. "Come on, we should all get back to the house before the world ends or something crazy like that."

"Come with you where? I thought you were going with us to the UK?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Why should I come with you?"
"Because you'll get mugged anywhere here. You're safest with us."
Draco grumbled a response but consented.

"I never said that. I have a job coming up."
