Ricki's head lifted as he called out to her, for what seemed to be the first time since they had left Miami. "Hhmmmm?" Came her instinctive but attentive reply. She thought about the movie title for a long moment. While Ricki could remember a good number of movies, this "Its a Wonderful Life" wasn't among them. Or if it was, it hadn't been good enough for her to recall.
Sinking down on the comfortable sofa next to Sonny, Ricki finally answered, "I can't say that I have, pal. Why? Is it one of the movies on tonight?" She quizzed curiously. Her brown-eyes slowly drifting towards the handsome figure as she pulled a hideous sweater over her own head.
"Don't tell me that you are into the sappy Christmas movies, Sunshine," Ricki remarked with a nervous laugh, as she threw a few kernels of popcorn in his direction. For the first time since she had reached her friend's home she was showing signs of being the good ol' impish and seemingly carefree Tubbs; the girl that everyone from Vice in Miami knew and loved. "Oh my gosh. I knew you were a total softie...." she added with another round of laughter. Although, if one asked her, Ricki would be quick to say that she liked a good number of tender hearted people.
Ricki then passed a heavy blanket over to him as she slipped off her boots and drew her legs up to her own chest. When she wasn't in a formal setting, she liked to sit in the most comfortable position she could find, which at the moment, happened to be knees drawn up to the chest. Ricki let her hair out of the somewhat sloppy travel bun until it cascaded freely down her shoulders.
The female detective let out a contented sigh, leaning back into the comfort of the sofa. The soft glow of the tv seemed to give Sonny's face a more enchanting and strikingly handsome appearance, rather than the sometimes ghoulish appearance it gave to other people. All of the contours of his face seemed to shine with an unspoken jovial nature, including his beautiful eyes. Ricki couldn't take her own pools of butter and milk-chocolate off of him. Knowing that it would be rude if she continued to stare, she angled her face halfway towards the television. This way she could get a view of both of the tv and of her partner.
