Virgil held Elise close as they swayed to the music. He smiled briefly at his parents as they passed.

"They look happy, don't they?"

"Hmmm?" Virgil looked down to see Elise smiling up at him.

"Your folks. They seem to be enjoying themselves tonight. It's nice to see."

"It is." He pulled her close as he felt her shiver. "Cold?"

"A bit," Elise responded.

"Well, we can't have that." He pulled his jacket off and draped it over her shoulders. "Better?"

"Much. Thank-you." She breathed in the scent of his cologne and smiled. "Would you care to walk me back to my apartment?" she asked, her green eyes twinkling.

He laughed and took her hand. "Of course, my lady." With a nod to his parents, he and Elise walked towards the monorail. To their surprise, it was empty.

"Where is everyone?" Elise asked.

Virgil shook his head. "Either headed back early or staying late, I guess." They talked quietly as the train headed towards the Cliff House. Once it had stopped, he again took her hand and led her to the door of her apartment.

She opened it and looked up. "Would you like to come in?"

He raised one eyebrow. "Will Henry let me?"

Elise merely shook her head and led him inside. The kitten came bounding in from the other room, meowing happily. He then spied Virgil and he froze, back arched and hissing. "That cat hates me," Virgil stated.

Elise crouched down and the kitten leapt into her arms. "No, he doesn't. Henry doesn't hate anyone, do you, baby?" She nuzzled the kitten as he purred and rubbed against her chin.

"I think I should be jealous," Virgil quipped with a grin.

Elise stuck her tongue out at him as she put Henry down. "Can I get you something to drink?" she asked as she shrugged out of his jacket and hung it over a chair.

He shook his head and sat down on the couch. "No thanks. Why don't you join me over here?" She came over and sat down next to him. He put his arm around her shoulders and drew her in close, pressing his lips to hers. "I've wanted to do that all evening." They sat there, quietly, exchanging kisses and talking softly. "What are your plans for tomorrow?" Virgil asked sometime later.

Elise shook her head. "Nothing much, just some household chores. Why?"

"I was thinking. Maybe we could go for a walk, have a picnic. Alex was talking to Jenny tonight about going for a hike later this week. It reminded me of this terrific waterfall I've wanted to show you. We could go."

"You, me and Alex?" Elise teased.

"Brat," he replied, kissing the tip of her nose. He moved down to her lips again, his arms caressing hers. She wrapped herself around him, pulling him closer.

When he pulled back, he ran his fingers down her cheeks. "You looked beautiful tonight."

She blushed. "You don't look too bad yourself." She ran her fingers over his chest, pausing to unbutton his shirt. Leaning forward, she placed a soft kiss on his chest. "Mmmm....I love your cologne." Her hands wandered around his back, lightly caressing his skin as her lips moved upwards to his neck.

Virgil leaned his head back and let out a soft moan. "Elise..." She grew bolder, pulling the shirt completely off and leaning in closer. She captured his lips as his hands gripped her tightly.

Finally, they broke apart. "Virgil?" Elise asked, her voice a little breathless. "Wouldn't it make more sense if you just stayed here tonight? We could get an earlier start tomorrow." She looked up at him, her green eyes bright.

Virgil could feel his heart pounding in his chest. "Yes, I think that would be a great idea."

"Then we'd best turn in. We'll be getting up early in the morning." She began to turn off the lights. As she pulled the curtains over the French doors, Virgil came up behind her, wrapping his arms around her waist and turning her to face him. He bent and kissed her passionately, easing her dress straps off her shoulders. Now it was her turn to shudder as he trailed his mouth along her neck. He nudged the straps further, causing the dress to slip off and pool at her feet.

They stood embracing in the moonlight until Elise pulled back and took his hand. With her eyes glowing, she led him into the bedroom.



98% pure evil...and loving every minute of it.
