Sunday funday

Sunday funday - or for Marcus it meant homework he had to catch up with. He had been out the evening before, taking care of some alpha business and gotten back late, yet somehow he had hauled himself into the library. He looked around for an empty seat, and spottet a brunette with long soft curls, with a free spot right across from her. Her walked over with a confident smile. ”Sorry, could I join you?” he asked with a warm smile on his lips.

”A bit of everything, I’m afraid,” he said with a crooked smile on his lips as he sat down across from her and placed his computer on the desk as well as his thick language book. ”Is it a good book?” he asked nodding at the book in her hand, moving his mouse around on the desktop and opening his documents with notes, before he opened his own book. ”I’m Marcus, by the way,” he said looking at her with his dark warm eyes.

Marcus nodded and looked to her. ”You like to travel?” he asked. Marcus was the type of guy who was pretty chill around others. He was dominant, true, but he had his moments of relaxation. He looked as she closed the book, trying to get a sneak at the cover. ”Calla – pretty name for a pretty girl,” he said with a charming smile and flipped to his chapter in the book. ”I think you would be my distraction, but sure. Do you know anything about sentence structuring?” he asked with a teasing yet flirting smile.

”I know all about strict fathers, but I guess most of us kids here do in one way or another,” Marcus said with a small smile and liked hearing her chuckle. It was sweet, and he felt like he wanted to hear it more often. She picked up his biology book, and he closed his language book, just looking at her. ”Biology? Your father a professor or something?” he asked as he looked at her. He was getting distracted by her, that was clear, but he didn’t mind. ”Anatomy, however, is a very interesting topic,” he said with a small nod, wanting to keep the conversation going. ”You considering biology, or would that just be too boring for you?” he asked.

Marcus tilted his head to the side as he listened to her explain. ”To be honest I might not be the best to introduce to your father; we have just met, but I do like forward thinking individuals,” he said with a teasing chuckle. He wanted to lighten the mood. Make her more comfortable, as she seemed a bit stiff. They changed subject to classes, and smiled as she said she got restless more than bored. He knew that feeling, but being an alpha always came with new things to figure out. That had kept him on his toes. ”Art class? Never considered myself artsy, but anything to keep your head clear,” he said and nodded. He knew all about trying to keep ones self sane. ”I guess that’s why I got so many classes – keeping me focused and on my toes,” he said considering his own words after they left his mouth. ”What kind of art do you like?” he asked, reaching out and taking his biology book and skimming through it.

Marcus listened to her as he placed his biology book down between them on the table. ”So abstract?” he asked. He wasn’t good with the art lingo, but he knew bits and pieces. As she said she was a dark person and that he should be scared, he leaned over the table and looked her in the eye. ”I’m petrified,” he said in a serious tone, his eyes shortly showing the yellow of his werewolf side. He let out a small chuckle and leaned away, his eyes returning to normal as he looked at her. ”I guess I’ll just have to overcome my fears and I’ve heard of this great theory, that to conquor a fear, you must face it,” he said with a slight flirty smile. ”So would you like to go for a coffee, tea or anything else?” he asked.

”Isn’t it the stereotype for an alpha to be wise?” he said in teasing, packing away his books and computer. Her mention of Juice Stop made him nod. He liked that place too, even if it was often filled with students. ”Haven’t had the pleasure of trying their iced coffee, but I’m always up for something new,” he said getting up from his seat. He held out his arm, and raised an eyebrow at her. ”My lady, will you lead the way?” he said teasing her, but he was also trying to be a bit on the nose with his actions.

”A leader is only as good as his followers,” he teased back. He liked the way she just spoke back to him, like it was nobody’s business. She had some temper in her, he could almost feel it lurking underneath her skin. As they walked he enjoyed the continued small talk, and opened the door for her as they were to enter Juice Stop. He nodded at her comment and went to stand in line. It wasn’t bad, and soon he ordered two iced coffees. As they waited for their beverages he spotted a table, and smiled to himself. He grabbed their coffees as soon as his name rang through the shop, and steered for the table. Another couple was headed to the table as well, but with one look he warned the guy, and sat down with Calla. ”You mentioned being dangerous,” he said taking a sip of the iced coffee. Holy God it was good. He swallowed and looked her in the eye. [color=#aaa583]”Would you consider elaborating, or am I just to assume the worst of worsts?”[/clor] he said with a sly grin on his lips.

”That depends if you want me on your bad side,” he said and raised an eyebrow at her. He didn’t mind a challenge, actually he liked them very much. She was different, not just her smell, but her general way of being. It intrigued him. As she said for him to run he leaned closer, his eyes locked with hers. ”Only if it means you’ll run after me,” he said with a flirty smile. Maybe he should be wiser and listen to her warnings, but why not live life on the dangerous side some times? ”Besides,” he said, leaning back into his chair and took a sip of his coffee. ”It’s been a while since I’ve met a chick who could beat me up,” he said with a teasing grin.

Marcus smiled at her small chuckle, and knew he wanted to hear that sound more often. Her cheeky smile and way of teasing had gotten him. Hook, line and sinker. ”I’ll look forward to it,” he said and kept his gaze on her shortly, before drifting around the Juice Stop interior. He liked it here, but most students did. Her question caught him a bit off guard and he furrowed his brows slightly as he looked to her again. ”I like to think I’m easy to talk to; my father always thaught me that to be a leader, you would have to listen – and my mother always warned me about pretty girls,” he said with a small grin on his face. ”I guess I’m normally easy to talk to; I have to be, right?” he asked, not really wanting an answer. He looked to her lovely green eyes and chuckled softly. ”Are you always jumping at the chance to go with guys to the Juice Stop?” he asked, raising an eyebrow.

”Though love, that’s what they believe in,” he said with a chuckle and shook his head. They hadn’t given him a bad childhood or anything, but he often felt choked by the expectations he could sense, especially from his father. He smiled at her comment and was a bit mezmerised by her cute smile. Her sarcastic comment made him chuckle as he listened to her explain. ”Well I guess that’s good for me, as I was afraid of having too much competition,” he said with a flirty smile. He wondered if she kept her distance for a reason, but he was not the one to dig too deep. Everyone had secrets, especially in a city like Gaia. ”How do you spend your time then, when you don’t paint or take guys to the Juice Stop?” he asked, genuinly curious. He wanted to get to know her, as she seemed quite the interesting type.

He listened to her, taking another gulp of the coffee and just feeling the coldness move down his throat. A small chuckle left his lips as she made a comment about her being part witch, but it would make sense as he couldn’t really place her scent. Her mention of the woods made a faint glow appear in his eyes. He loved the woods, especially if he got to be there without any of the others from his pack cluttering it. Her question made him chuckle, especially as she added the last few sentences. He shrugged however. ”I like the woods too, but I guess it’s a given,” he said looking out the window. ”To be honest, I could probably ask anyone, but why would I?” he said with a smile looking at her. ”I’m not saying I have it hard, so this is not a ’woe me’ situation,” he said with a chuckle, shaking his head. ”I guess it’s sometimes easier to just follow along with what is expected of you; but once in a while I like to spice it up,” he said looking at her eyes. ”I saw you, I was mesmerized and then I just decided to go for it,” he said with a smile. ”So don’t feel honored, I have yet to prove myself to you, right?” he said with a smile.

Marcus chuckled at her admittance but he couldn’t help but shake the feeling that part of her might not be happy about it. Getting mixed signals was normal, but it was like she put out things and reeled them as soon as they hit the surface. ”Why should I handle you? You’re your own person, are you not?” he said with a chuckle and looked at her with some warmth in his eyes. ”Besides, could you really be worse than a whole pack of teenage werewolves?” he said in teasing, knowing that people were stronger than they appeared. She had warned him, but he found it more intriguing rather than scary.
