Maddelynn blinked when the stranger put the blue prints down on the counter. She clasped her hands together, not sure what to do otherwise. She glanced to the other girls, then looked back to the stranger. When he mentioned going across town, she suddenly found her voice, "No, no! That won't be necessary! Please!" She reached underneath the counter and pulled out a long, leather bound ledger, "I'll take down your information while Lucian goes to fetch the Professor." She stressed Lucian's name hard and sent him a serious glare. She was not going to let him mess up such an opportunity.
She opened the ledger and picked up a pen. She scribbled down a few things, then smiled up at the stranger. Being as close as he was, Maddelynn caught his scent wafting across the counter. It was exotic and musky and all she could think about doing was burying her face in his chest and breathing it in. Her thoughts, though entirely her own, suddenly felt very public and she felt her face turn a bright shade of red. She gripped the pen terribly hard and tore her eyes away from the stranger's. She took a slow breath and swallowed hard, "N-name?"
Lucian turned as the stranger strolled passed him. He hadn't thought he came off as rude at all! He grumbled and crossed his arms. He started toward the counter, but he stopped when Maddelynn shot him a glare. He glared back, but didn't say anything else. He let out an audible growl and stomped toward the back room. How was it that he felt something off about him, but no one else did? Maddelynn was going to hear about this when this was all done and over with, that was for sure!
For now, he went into the back to find the Professor, whom had, hopefully, not started any more fires.
