When Cross wakes up it's late already, he turns to lay on his side, groaning as pressure is applied to his hurt rib and looks at the cloak only to realize in horror that in ten minutes he will be late to meet up with Moon, quickly he gets up and runs to his drawers, opening them before putting on a white shirt, long black pants, taking his mask, key and speed walking to the kitchen he opens the fridge.
He is met with disappointment. It's mostly empty except for the food from tuesday. Cross quickly eats some leftover nuggets before closing it and running to the door and in that very moment reality slaps him in the face harshly.
He left all of his jackets in the laundry and he doesn't have any more jackets, good thing that he still has ideas to overcome problems like that. He puts on his shoes, mask and makes sure to tie the laces real tight before he takes Killers leather jacket and puts it on, it seems to be just the right size. He is almost sure that Killer won't mind.
Chara seems to be asleep, that explains the comfortable silence, unfortunately it will end really soon. Cross prefers the silence to the ghosts' constant rambling, knowing that after an hour or so the Spirit will wake up fills him with disappointment.
He walks out and closes the door, not locking it as Killer is either working online or sleeping at this hour. With that done he starts walking to the familiar alleyway, surprised as he finds no cops along the way. Once in the alleyway he is quick to notice Moon as the monster is dressed differently today, his black mask is the same but instead of wearing all blacks he has a black coat with pink fur going all the way down, a white t-shirt, skinny jeans with the ecto body summoned (that is, if he is a skeleton) and black boots with the same fur.
"You took long enough." Moon stops talking and scans Cross from head to toe before whistling and grinning behind that mask of his. "It was worth the wait it seems."
The skeleton looks away quietly, now he misses Chara slightly, if the spirit would be here then he would at least distract Cross with his comments. He is snapped out of his thoughts as Moon outstretches his hand to him, confused he raises a brow, he gave all the bags yesterday. Did the other expect him to finish the job before he came here to meet up with him??
"Give me your hand, we don't have time to waste." The other monster answers the question that he didn't even ask, Cross is hesitant, scared even as he had seen before as the monster broke fingers and hands just by a handshake. He gives his hand to Moon and prepares for the pain but it doesn't come, instead Moon takes off his mask and kisses Crosses hand. (because he is a pervert, there is no other explanation that his mind can offer at the moment)
The monster grins before putting the mask into his pocket, taking his hand and starting to walk somewhere. At that very moment the skeleton notices four black tentacles coming out of Moon's back, he hasn't seen those before but he doesn't question them. Cross is given no real explanation as to what had happened a moment ago and yet his mind is not busy with that at the moment, he had seen Moon without the mask and he cannot help but to think that the monster is rather handsome.
But being handsome doesn't fix the fact that he is a real jerk. (And a pervert )
Finally they stop in front of a big metal door and two wolf monsters dressed in black suits with black glasses in front of it. There is no word said, the moment they see Moon they open the door and move away slightly as the monster walks inside with Cross. Then the skeleton comes to the conclusion as to where they are.
It's a strip club full of big round tables with poles that go to the ceiling strippers are dancing on, sofas along the walls, smaller tables, soft pink and purple lightning, a stage and a bar. Cross questions how he didn't hear the loud music from the outside. Moon let's go of his hand and sits down on one of the sofas, people are quick to notice his presence and few monsters surround him. "You're free today Dove, have fun."
"How long did I slee- Oh sh! I'm not old enough to be here- a- uh see ya-" As quickly as Chara appeared that quickly he disappeared. Cross is furious at this point, not only did Moon bring him here only to tell him that he is free today, that kiss yesterday was unneeded, the jerk had used the opportunity. He doesn't show his anger because causing a scene in front of so many people that might be criminals as well probably won't end well for him.
"What are you waiting for Dove? Grab a drink and have fun or you can c'mere and stay with me for a while." The monster purred at the end, there were two water element monsters sitting on either side of Moon in cat costumes that many would be ashamed to put on, the monster doesn't seem to mind. Cross pretends to be interested in one of the strippers and walks away from Moon, closer to the stage and monsters dancing on the pools.
Jerk, he should get out of here quick but at the same time he is afraid, what if Moon goes after him and follows him home? Waiting for a bit till the monster is too busy to notice his absence seems wiser. In moments like those he questions if he really couldn't find himself a normal job, with a Boss that wouldn't kiss him without permission and bring him into strip clubs on his free days.
Those are not his climates, Killer would be more comfortable in here than he is, but he might as well use the opportunity himself. Cross takes a drink from the waiter dressed in a bunny costume and sliding off his mask drinks it quickly.
Might as well have fun.
