ORPHEUS PARK   Orpheus park is one of the last places of freegrowing garden and forest in Dark Haven. Though it isn't terribly large it is a few acres at least and houses lush grash, stone benches and a natural waterfall and creek. Old statues are covered in vines and moss amongst shrubs and bushes of all sorts. Tall willowy trees abound as well as wildflowers and it is a place of relaxation and sometimes, clandestine meetings.

A stunned and blushing Christophe walked with Nolah to the park. He had trouble focusing on Mr. McKrea when he kept sneaking glances at the woman next to him. "Did she really kiss me? Was it just a friendly kiss? Did it mean anything? Am I just over-analyzing this? Did she really kiss me!?"

Nolah felt her cheeks redden as they continued to walk towards the park. She was surprised that she'd kissed him, not that she regretted it in the least. She felt safe with Christophe and spontaneous at the same time. It had been while since she'd felt like that and she liked it very much. Finally they stopped by the creek bank. She settled herself down, folding her legs beside her and kicking off her flip-flops as she did so. " So what shouldn't I rush into? He's obviously involved in something...I'dlove to get him nailed...by the law I mean." She said quickly blushing. McKrea was definately on the bottom of her list as far as interests went.

Christophe looked around to make sure people weren't near, and then took off his trenchcoat, glad he could stretch his wings. Sitting across from her, he listened as she asked why she shouldn't just dive in. He found himself blushing a bit more when she mentioned being nailed... and then had to quickly change his line of thought so he could coherantly answer her question.
"We don't know if it's safe." Christophe frowned slightly. "It might be dangerous, and I wouldn't want something to happen to you."

"But you would be nearby incase anything went wrong. You were able to take care of me with no problems last night. Can we please give it a try? I have my cell on me so I can just call him from here...unless you wanna hang out for now to plan things and do the set-up tomorrow?" She smiled shyly and raised an eyebrow at him.

Christophe mulled it over in his mind. "Tommorrow would be better than tonight. It would allow us time to plan, and maybe see if anyone else wants to keep watch. I'd feel a lot better if Tank were here as well."
Looking now at Nolah, he noticed her raised eyebrow, and thoughts of McKrea and protection vanished. He swallowed and said... nothing. He couldn't think of a single thing to say, so he simply stared at Nolah until he realized he was staring. Then he promptly looked away.

Nolah smiled. "I guess that would be best but now that we're here, why waste the day?" She had an undeniable urge to stroke the feathers of his wings but decided against it, unsure as to how he felt about it. The thought brought color to her cheeks once more and she continued to smile, scooting closer to the creek and Christophe in the process. Though her flip-flops were already off she slid off her toe-ring and rolled up her torn jeans. She let her feet dangle in the soothing rush of water. Fortune was definately on her side, she felt really content suddenly and leaned back against Christophe without realizing she was doing it. "Oh!" She exclaimed and quickly sat up again, afraid that she'd done something to make him uncomfortable. " I'm sorry!"

Christophe could only watch when Nolah rolled up her jeans and dangled her feet in the water. The only thing he could do was swallow when she began leaning against him. When she realized what she was doing and sat up, disappoint flooded through him.
"It's okay," he said. "I don't mind. You can keep doing it if you'd like." So saying, he scooted behind her, so she could easily lean on him and play in the water. When she did so, he idly began touching her head with his hand, stroking her hair and marveling at what had happened since coming to Dark Haven a few days ago.

"I feel so comfortable with you." She said smiling. She liked the feeling of his fingers in her hair. It was so relaxing, so soothing. She could practically forget about McKrea like this. Suddenly something occured to her. "Can you be there tomorrow night?" She said, turning her head so that she could look up at him. His eyes were lighter than her own amber ones and she was fascinated by the gold color. " At the party I mean...well it's only for clients and Tank's doing the bartending but if you were around the building maybe...I'd feel safer." She didn't know why she was being so honest with Christophe. It had been a while since she'd been so open with someone. She'd learned to mask her feelings as a rule of survival but with Christophe...it didn't seem so important to be guarded.

Smiling at Nolah's invitation and confidence, Christophe wrapped his arm around her and said, "Yes, I'll be there. I'll see if I can't help Tank out somehow, just so it looks like I belong. I'll find a way to disguise myself so he doesn't recognize me." Then his free hand began stroking her cheek. "I'll be there."

Nolah nodded, lips curving into a smile when she felt Christophe's arm tightened around her waist and a finger stroked her cheek. This was so nice...and the way he promised to be at the party was confident, a promise, not just a consent, a promise. She turned in his grasp so that she was facing him. "Do you swim?" She asked.

When Nolah turned to him and asked if he swam, for some reason he felt guilty telling her no. "No, I don't swim. I hate water. You'll notice I never drink it, and I won't go outside if its raining. I generally give my body a spongebath because I hate having to preen and clean my wings after they get wet. It's a great hassle, and becomes very uncomfortable. I'm sorry."
He looked down, feeling like he had somehow disappointed her.

Nolah's brow furrowed at his seeming disappointment. "That's fine." She replied quietly and tipped a finger beneath his chin so that she could tilt his face up. The urge to kiss him was suddenly overwhelming but she held back, knowing that he was shy. Maybe she'd scare him away.

When Nolah put her fingers under his chin and tipped it up so she was looking straight at him, he found an intense desire to kiss her course through him.
She is so beautiful, and she is right here in your arms Christophe. Is now really the time to be shy? Is it really the time to be polite and withdrawn?
Swallowing, he decided it would be worth the risk, and moved his head an inch or two closer to press his lips against what he hoped might be his kitten.

For the first few seconds Nolah was shocked that it had been Christophe who had taken the initiative but then a warmth and desire stole through her and she kissed him back eagerly yet sensually, arms twining around his neck to pull herself closer. This was so...she hadn't felt like this in a long time. Heat suffused her cheeks. Her feet, still wet made small water marks on his pants but neither seemed to care as she pressed herself closer.
