Excerpt from "I'm Going to Get Drunk off of Mouthwash [2]" :D (This is my partner's, and my, replies. She's the girl, and I'm both guys.)
"I didn't bring up that idea worrying about the government. The significance of it is to help us survive through this h*ll hole". She covered her mouth with her jacket realizing she's starting to curse too much.
Leon gives her a strange look at her actions, not quite understanding her reaction. "Well, that makes sense... Is something up?" His brows are drawn together in question, a slight tilt to his head.
"Nope, I just don't curse a lot like I'm doing now and I'm trying to stop myself". She moved her jacket from where she placed it and continued to lean on the wall.
"Huh, I guess I can see that from you," Is his vague response, taking in her smaller form once more before looking away for her comfort.
"What's that supposed to mean?" She said in a playful manner and smirked. She looked up at him waiting for his response.
"Well..." He paused, somehow getting a feeling like he'd approached a field full of mines that he couldn't see. But like an unknowing soldier, he took a step blindly. "...You're small."
A laugh erupted from inside the kitchen and Leon jumped, he'd forgotten his loon of a friend was still in there. "Astute, Scotty," Naz jabs.
"Oh, shut up," Leon snips.
She laughed at his response. "Just because I'm small doesn't mean I can't curse a lot".
He smiled, a small little thing filled with the kind of humor today's events shouldn't have allowed him. "That would be entertaining."
"Alright, stop flirting. I'm finished." Naz broke through their space holding three serrated blades, each having a very rustic kind of sheath. Cardboard cut out and scotch tape makes a good enough sheath. "It'll fit in your belt loop," he says handing one to each of them. And even though Leon already has one, it's better to be safer than sorry.
"So, which store we raiding," Naz asks them, placing his dark caramel irises on them.
