Well that's different. That's me saving a damsel or whatever.

[gothchicklit]

Hey! [ She reaches down to poke him in the side. ] I'm not a damsel in distress, broken bones or otherwise.

[redhotsummers]

Ow!

[Alex laughs.]

Fine, I'll just leave you to crawl then, ms. not-damsel.

[gothchicklit]

Or you could just help me and leave the damsel comments out.

[redhotsummers]

Aww, but what fun is that?

[gothchicklit]

Being a good guy and staying on my good side? [ It would take far more than that to get on her bad side, though. ]

[redhotsummers]

Aww and I thought I always stay on your good side?

[He hits the lift, and bends down slightly.]

Hit the button for your floor, please.

[gothchicklit]

There's always a first time for everything.

[ One arm stays wrapped around him while she reaches out with the opposite hand, hitting the button for her floor. ]

[redhotsummers]

Yeah, well sometimes there is a never for things too. [He looks over his shoulder at her, smirking.]

[gothchicklit]

[ Wrapping her arm around his neck again, October grins a little in return. ] Here's hoping that's the option we end up with.

[redhotsummers]

[When the elevator reached the floor, he walks out, shifting her slightly.]

Got to keep you as my buddy, you know?

[gothchicklit]

Your life would kinda suck without me. [ She gently nudges his head with her own. ]

[redhotsummers]

It certainly would be a bit more boring.

[He chuckles, and really he agrees. He likes October, and since their last real argument, things have been good. It's rare for him to have a friend who was a girl, who he didn't get completely freaked out over.]

[gothchicklit]

[ She smiles and settles her chin on his shoulder again. Though she's been here as long as she has, October only has a few close friends and if she's being honest, Alex is probably the closest. She has Jim, too, but she doesn't see him as often because he's always busy. ]

Same here, Alex.

[redhotsummers]

[He nudges his head against hers gently, knowing they are getting close.]

Thanks for not giving up on me, October.

[gothchicklit]

[ When her arms tighten around him this time, it's in a hug-like gesture (as much as it can be while she's getting a piggyback ride) than to keep herself from falling. ]

Thanks for having more to you than your asshole side.

[ She grins a little and moves a hand to ruffle his hair. Then, though sheer luck, she actually pays attention to where they are. ] This is me.

[redhotsummers]

Just keep that a secret, hm?

[He laughs, and bends down slightly, loosening his hold on her legs.]

Well then, guess you got to get off the ride, now.

[gothchicklit]

Cross my heart.

[ She slides off him easily enough, though she stumbles briefly when she hits the floor, hand grabbing hold of his arm to steady herself. ]

Thanks, Alex.

[redhotsummers]

[Alex reaches out to steady her, putting a hand on her waist, removing it once he's sure she's okay.]

Hey, it as fun, okay? No need for the thanks.

[gothchicklit]

Yeah, it was. [ Which she was thankful for because he sounded like he'd needed it earlier. She leans over to press a kiss to his cheek, a little sloppier than normal, then moves to open her door. ] Have a good night.

[redhotsummers]

[Alex flushed and cleared his throat.]

Yep--you too.

[gothchicklit]

[ She smiles as she turns around once she's in her room, giving him a brief wave before she shuts the door. Unless Alex decides he needs something else, October's likely going to end up passing out fully clothed on her bed. ]
