Slipping her purse on her shoulder, Isabelle started to the door. Maribelle whipped against her legs a few times for a pet between the ears. "I have to go, girl." She sighed squatting to rub under the kitty's chin. Usually she came home for lunch hoping to catch John on his way in or out. Usually, she didn't see him at all and Maribelle was her companion for the few hours in between classes. She'd decided to skip out on her morning class, sleeping in for the day before meeting Richard.
With a little kiss atop the cat's head she left her behind and headed out the door. Richard was already there when she came down the steps. She gave him a bright smile. It felt good to be eating lunch with someone for the day. John was starting to take her for granted. She knew he was busy, but maybe she'd just lost that luster for him. She tried leaving him little notes around the apartment just to remind him she was there but he never replied to them.
"So where to my knight?" she gave him a sweet smile. For the day Richard was her knight in shining armor.

Date: 2012-09-21 12:09 am (UTC)"Aren't we all?" He'd always had others to do it for him. Even know he'd hired an accountant. It seemed safer. "I forget what you're studying though."

Date: 2012-09-21 12:40 am (UTC)"I don't even know really," she said with a sweet chuckle. "I'm just kind of taking a few required courses until I get an idea of what I want to do." She may have come from money herself, but she was not a pampered brat.

Date: 2012-09-21 01:08 am (UTC)"And our father had a lot of properties, and John never really got any of them. Then I decided to join the military and kept climbing the ranks. John's just always had to hear about what I did, and I didn't have a clue how to run a company." He sighed, "I'm really not meant to sit behind a desk, but I have no choice now. Drives me nuts."
She was terrifyingly young, really. "Congratulations. I'd buy you a present but I don't want John to think I'm trying to get with you."

"Oh please," she smacked Richard's arm playfully. "Why on earth would it appear that way?" Richard had always been nice to her. "I enjoy your company."

Date: 2012-09-21 01:48 am (UTC)"And you're nice, but not my type. And John doesn't see that. He just thinks I'll get you to break up with him." Even though John needed no help with that. "John is strange. He has some issues he needs to work through. Most of them revolve around me."
He motioned to one of the Italian places nearby, "how about that?"

Date: 2012-09-22 04:29 pm (UTC)He opened the door to the restaurant for her as he thought. "Not too sure. Fellow soldiers or singers, mostly. Someone I can relate to. Someone who will challenge my mind and body. And someone who can deal with me."
