noot and helga take 8

Rory
"Leigh. Close, though." My laptop took forever to load. Fuck my laptop. Actually, no, don't. "How many gallons of tea do you even drink?"

Adian
"Not enough" I muttered removing the teabags and putting then in the bin. "Su-gar?" I asked, grabbing a small jar, glancing at Rory.

Rory
"I've never, literally never had tea", I admitted and checked my email. Two new projects. Whoopie? All I wanted to do is just spend time with Adian. Too much to ask?

Adian
"You are a trai-tor and should get ou-t of my h-ouse." I replied, walking over with a cup of tea and the jar of sugar. "Hm. This is de-fin-itely a life chang-ing moment." I observed, putting the stuff down next to her. Is it possible to live without drinking a cup of tea? I don't know how she's done it all these years.

Rory
"I played this game a billion times", I explained as I kicked a policeman in his nose," because it was the only game I actually bought back then, but Beyond is still my favoueite and my oh my am I gonna kick your ass in this."

Adian
"You seem so s-ure. You should-n't be tha-t sure" I said, with a quick glance over to her, a smile plastered on my face. "You should be qua-king in fear as you're going do-wn, Little Mis-s SugarPlumFairy"

Rory
"How do I reply to that? You're Duke Oblonsky, then, if I'm a Sugar Plum fairy. Because you're tall, dark and mysterious and I'm small, glittery and delicate." I snorted and kicked him in the rib with my elbow.

Adian
I chuckled, after a playful wince, at her elbowing. "You're swe-et too, can't forge-t that. Absolutely covere-d in sugar. Or mor-e high on it." I ruffled her hair by taking one hand of the controller, risky move in all truthfulness.

Rory
"DIE BITCH DIE", I murdered a zombie. In all honesty, I couldn't 'beat' him, it's a team game. But he could fuck up my - Ellen's - Jodie's - date with Ryan though. He wouldn't, would he? "Nuu, not the hair! I managed to make it look like David Tennant's today!"

Adian
"Does-n't it always?" I asked, glancing at her for a second, before returning my attention to the screen. "When d-id you cut yo-ur hair short? Or have you al-ways had it like t-his?" I asked, quite out of the blue.

Rory
"I dunno, I rebelled my dad a bit." My hand reflexivy flew into the aforementioned hair. "Why? Would it be better if it was longer?"

Adian
"No" I said quickly, don't change it. Don't ever change. "No, it suits y-ou like t-hat. I like i-t" I added slower this time, pressing buttons but not looking at the screen. Bad idea but I kept wanting to glance at Rory; checking she was still there and breathing.

Rory
"My papa always said I shan't never change for a boy", I said and looked down. I didn't blush because I'm not an emotional teenager, but I did bite my lip. Quite glad he liked my hair.

Adian
"But mayb-e a boy doesn't w-ant you to cha-nge" I shrugged slightly, looking at the screen again. Hey this could be classed as flirting. Is it flirting? Oh I don't know, I'll pretend it is.

Rory
"Which boy?" I dared to ask. Whoa mate. Step off your game. "I mean, there are three and a half billion boys on planet Earth, who doesn't want me to change?"

Adian
"Probab-ly quite a few of them. I'm pr-etty sure if y-ou met David Tennant or Benedict Cumber-cookie or any-one else they wo-uld just adore you." I replied, settling back into the sofa and rested my feet on the coffee table.

Rory
"Yeah but that's lightly paedophilic. David's like 45 and Ben's 38ish. I'm sorry, more than ten years of difference? Not quite, no thanks", I told him.

Adian
"Well sh-it. How a-bout Peter Capa-ldi. Would he b-e be-tter?" I'd be better. I'm the same age as you. Or at least I think I am. "H-ow old ar-e you?"

Rory
"Offended. I'm twenty two, did I not mention before?" Or was I still in the ew-internet-paedo-don't-know-my-age-or-postal-code mood?

Adian
"Sad-ly, I don't have a Sherlockian memory. I forget little thin-gs like that. Tho-ugh I d-do remember your fav-ourite pancak-e topping is icecream. Warm pancakes with nutella cove-red in vanilla icecream." I replied, shruggimg lightly, important details, I forget, randon details, I remember. This makes life harder than it should be.

Rory
"Well. I guess your age is not important. But I'm afraid I have a memory of a hummingbird, I don't even remember your ex flatmate's name", I told him.

Adian
"I will ta-ke th-at as a good t-hing" I replied with a shrug. Ash is overall a better person than me, in so many more ways than one.

Rory
"Why? Jealous?" I asked with a slight smirk as I leant towards him. Hey, I was driving in the game, drawing equals leaning from side to side.

Adian
I may have blushed slightly. I probably did. "Totally" Casual was what I was aiming for, and I missed the target by a mile or ten.

Rory
"Cmon, focus! We're gonna die!" I glanced at him. Shit. He was blushing. What did I do? I paused the game. "Hey, what's up?"
