Levi smiled down to her "well, you're not alone anymore. I will stand by you no matter what, just tell me what you want and i'll happily go along with it. I am a true friend no matter what" he chuckled softly

His gaze was awkwardly diverted to Odette, he felt very wierd around her and truthfully couldnt understand why "oh yeah. I'm just the ladies man tonite" he chuckled and sweetly wrapped an arm around each woman's shoulder, his hood casually fell and this left him feeling rather vulnerable.

Odette frowned when the man wrapped his arm around the other woman too. So much for being seductive. Her frown faded quickly when she remembered to not show them her real self.

Allene grinned and realized she had an opportunity to play match maker. "I'm Allene, this is Leviathan, or as I so adoringly call him, Levi. " she smiled and laughed at Levi's comment. "Well, might I assume you are going to the ball tonight?" She tried not to be too obvious about her intentions.

Levi sweetly nudged Allene then blushed deeply soon after looking at Odette, he couldnt help but surpress the remakrs that pranced throughout his mind "hey" he spoke cooly after kissing her cheek. His eyes grew wide after this.

He knew Allene's intentions, and knew that they were for the best. He wouldnt stop her but wouldnt be as open about anything like Kirin.

Odette was surprised at their friendliness. "I'm Odette Swan," she smiled, honestly happy with being with them. She added her last name because she hated the awkwardness when someone only knew first names. "Um, I adoringly call myself Odette," she said, a little uncertain of whether these people had senses of humor or were sticks in the mud.

Odette blushed when he kissed her.

[He was kissing Odette, right?]

[yup!]

Levi chuckled and nudged both of them, his head hung low and hair fell infront of his face, he was glad that this had shadowed his features. He hadnt known how to react around new young women, all he knew is he was happy but hungry.

Allene smiled and looked at Levi with slightly widened eyes. "So Odette, do you have a date to this little shin dig? I'm certain my Levi here would gladly accompany you." She grinned at Levi mischieviously she nudged Levi winked at him. She smiled and made a movement so they would continue walking. She was still very hungry herself and need to get some blood else Odette might not like her much anymore.

Odette deliberated. She knew that spies changed their minds when they met their quarries, but she didn't know it happened this fast. Immediately, she didn't want to have anything to do with them, for fear of hurting them. "Um, well, I'm not sure I'm going anymore. But when I was going, I didn't."

he could have passed out from the embarrasement, he quickly nudged her back and unsure of what to say he babbled incoherently like an idiot, unable to say any words "but i thought i was your date?" he grinned widely and tilted his head to the side.

[Oh, and Sim, I gotta leave soon for my First Drive Test. Oh, and have you persuaded your mother on the subject of my house and the mall this fri-sat?]

Odette's face fell. He didn't want to go with her. Not that she was going, but he didn't want to go with her. The ultimate burn.

She shrugged. "You never said you wanted to be, plus I'm going to be " she paused and hoped he'd remember her plans of sneaking in andout of the office that night. "trying to track something down most of the night. So it wouldn't be fair to you, but then again." She smiled. "You could always have two dates?" she said and laughed. "you're respectable enough to pull it off." She said and they turned a corner where they popped out into what looked like a very long strip mall.

Levi could have killed himself, but he was mortally confused "odette or allene.. i cant choose" he blushed deeply and shook his head "you're both beautiful.. ladies, do i have to choose?" he asked nervously, hopeing not to be hurt after this, he heard Allene's answer and sighed with relief written all over his face.

Odette had never really been to a mall before. She'd been shopping, of course, but more at thrift stores.

[Sound familiar Sim?]

The idea of being one of a guy's two dates didn't really appease Odette, but they had been nice to her, so she didn't complain.

She smiled. "Nah, but you'll end up with Odette much more. Plus she is the more beautiful of us both, so you're a lucky man." she winked at Odette.

[She's still thinking *rolls eyes* she's driving me insane]]

[O my gosh. Well, you be a good girl and do what she tells you, CUZ WE BEEN PLANNING THIS FOR MONTHS!!!!!!!!!!!]

Odette flushed a little. "I'm not," she said to Allene.

levi seemed insulted when Allene had put herself down "now c'mon leen" he giggled then sweetly kissed her cheek as well "you know i think you're just as beautiful as Odette" he wasnt much of a flirt, this didnt wrench at his heart, but did cause it to spazz out.

He then leaned over to odette and kissed her cheek again "now c'mon, you're beautiful, please dont deny it"

Odette was happy and sad a little that Levi told Allene she was beautiful too. Odette knew Allene was. Then she smiled. He had placed her up there with Allene's beauty, and 'Dette had thought Allene one of the most beautiful women she had ever seen.

Allene looked at him with completely unamused eyes. "Don't even go there. I get enough of that, ermm.... Poezy poo from Kirin..." she said not using the first term that came to mind. "Now, lets get something to eat. Its on me, and you come to Odette." she said and headed towards a nearby resturant.

Levi's heart sank when Allene's eyes took the same expression she used to Kirin, he nodded and quickly adverted his attention to his boots. He sighed softly then brought his arms away from the women, he shoved his hands into his pockets after pulling his hood back up.

Odette noticed the trouble she'd caused. She frowned a little. She didn't deserve to eat with them, especially if they were paying.

Noticing that he had released both of them Allene sighed. She both liked be near him, she also liked that he was taking to a nice young woman like Odette. She walked into the resturant and sat down before anyone could try and make a nice gesture by holding her chair. That was something she tried to avoid, yet it had been a problem these last few days. A waiter dropped several menus on the table and she picked one up.

[Sim, this is my last post for a couple hours. I'm leaving.]

Odette sighed and sat down, scanning the menu for something cheap. She picked the cheapest thing there: a small fry and a free water.

Levi smiled and held out a chair for Odette "would you like to sit?" his voice was warm and inviting, he liked her, truelly he did. But it seemed like he was protective of allene just as he was of odette, though, he couldnt understand it.

she sat and he was happy, he tok a seat between the two then blushed. Hopeing nothing horrible would come about tonite.
