In one of the corners of the bar, an old fashioned jukebox would play some soft classic jazz, setting the mood of this quiet yet oddly classy bar.
The bar was run by some older man, he didn't seem too interested in holding a constant conversation... No... This wasn't a place to entertain the people within. Those who knew this bar knew it as a quiet hole in the wall. A place to sit, have a drink and be left alone from the world. A place a creature like Patience could feel safe.
The black cat Wildkin was currently sitting at a lone table, leaning back in her chair she had her boots up on the corner of the table. In one hand she had a half empty (or full) glass of whiskey, in the other, her butterfly knife, which she would effortlessly be flipping around. The way she seemed to twirl it around in her hand would assure anyone this young lady knew how to use her bladed weapon. Setting her drink down she would let out a soft sigh. It had been a while since the grand ball. Thinking about it now, only aggravated her more. Flipping her knife around faster in her hand she would continue brooding.
If it wasn't for her line of work she could have stayed talking to him just a little longer... She knew there was no way in hell she stood a chance with him. The idea of dancing with him felt more like a child-like fantasy, a little girl looking for her prince. The idea both embarrassed her and pissed her off. Even now she could feel her soft pale cheeks flushing a gentle rosey pink. A weakness. A weakness she was fond of. It wasn't every day she crossed paths with someone who stood up to her, who made the hair on the back of her neck stand up. She was afraid of him, and in a funny way, this fear was what kept her interested. He could easily find a means to lock her up. The idea made her smile just a little bit. Then the reminder that she ran off on him crept back into her head. 'Smooth Pai...' With a sigh she would flip her knife shut tucking both of her hands into her leather jacket's pockets.
The hand that had been empty bumped into a smooth object, a cellphone. Not just any. The 'gift' from the single person she was feeling so fussy about. It had been such little time spent between them, tiny interactions. However, these interactions were exciting to her. Letting out a soft sigh the young woman would pull the phone from her jacket turning on the screen. Scrolling through it she would find Dom's number, her fingers lingered on his name at first. She was an idiot. Not only was he a cop, but she wasn't exactly a model citizen. Like pouring gasoline on an already burning fire. Letting out a sigh, she would stare blankly at the screen. There was no way she would call him. That would be so weird. A volley of 'what ifs' clouded her brain, causing her to continue to linger.
Inhaling slowly she would open a fresh text to him, "Sorry I ditched you at the Masquerade Ball. If you're not on the clock, let me make it up to you by buying you a drink?~ I'm at Mikey's pub right now... It's on the corner of Alpine and Elkin Street. Just... Don't come dressed in uniform? (Smiling Cat emoji) Or else. (Devil smiling emoji)" As soon as she hit send she regretted it. It had been a long time since she thought about anyone else but her 'family.' Maybe that's why she wanted to be around him so bad. He was so different from everyone else, he saw her different from everyone else. Even if he saw her as just some petty criminal, at least that was the extent of it. He had no idea she was the right hand to the god of the Underworld, and one of the biggest Mafias in all Eyls'ayn. He didn't know that the mere sight of her caused panic in those who wished to play games with her master. He had no idea... And... she loved it. Setting the phone down on the table she let out a soft sigh. Now the waiting game. Deep down she braced for him to tell her that he was busy, or perhaps wasn't interested in spending actual free time with her. Whatever happened now was his decision. The ball was in his court, and she was waiting.
