Back In Eden

[arya]

Shasta stepped off the subway onto the platform. As it was before, the subway station was empty, not a person in sight. She shifted the weight of her camping gear on her shoulder and turned to see if Caspian was behind her. She wanted to say good bye before she left for her apartment.

[--+Caspian Risen+--]

[glow=teal,2,300]"Hey..."

A white wolf in a heavy overcoat stepped off the subway and waved to Shasta...

"Hi, again."[/glow]

[arya]

Shasta smiled and turned when she heard his voice. "Nice to see you, Caspian." The husky said in her usual soft voice. "I was going to head back to my coffee shop to close up before heading home; do you want to come?" She always got a little nervous when asking guys to go out or go places. She was fine with her other guy friends, but for some reason she always got nervous at other times.

[--+Caspian Risen+--]

[glow=teal,2,300]Caspian chuckled, acting like a mock-formal person....

"Oh, of course I would love to accompany you, M'lady."

He smirked, and spoke once more in his shy, quiet voice....

"Sure."[/glow]

Shasta moved a stray strand of hair back in place, grinning shyly. "Ok then, let's go." She turned and walked along the sidewalk, then turning to head down a small street that had multiple small shops and stores. The husky stopped in front of a small coffee shop. "Well, it's not much, but I kinda like it here." She gestured to the windows on the second story. "And it's convenient; my apartment is right above here." Shasta added as she fiddled with her keys, trying to find the right one.

[--+Caspian Risen+--]

[glow=teal,2,300]"Ah... The library is in another district, so I have to walk every day, 'cept Sunday."

The white wolf glanced at the keys, chuckling to himself...

"It must be tough, trying to keep ahold of so many keys..."[/glow]

[arya]

Shasta smiled at the wolf. "Yes, I always have trouble with these...ah, here's the one." She inserted a silver key into the keyhole and opened the door. Inside was a counter where the coffee and other things were made in the left hand corner. Next to it was cash register with a book rack right by it and several small tables and chairs were in front of this area. On the other side were some simple yet comfy looking couches surrounding a small coffee table. It was all rather small, but quite comfortable looking.

The husky walked into a hallway in the back where the restrooms and office were located. A small staircase was at the end. "My room is right up those stairs." She explained. "And my office is right here..." She walked into a rather small room with a desk, chair, shelf and mini refrigerator. Shasta pulled out a couple of ice teas and tossed her camping gear on the chair. "You want one?" She asked, gesturing to the drinks in her hand.

[--+Caspian Risen+--]

[glow=TEAL,2,300]Caspian followed his new companion within and nodded his furry head...

"Oh, yes..."

The white wolf took his seat in the chair and shot a glance at Shasta...

"Sorry about what happened at the waterfall.... I didn't mean to see you....well... like you were..."[/glow]

[arya]

She blushed and looked away for a moment. "It wasn't your fault, I was just being a bit careless." Shasta muttered. She then turned back to him. "So, what were you doing out there?"

(((Sorry for the short post, out of ideas for now. )))

[--+Caspian Risen+--]

((OOC: That's ok.))

[glow=teal,2,300]"Well, to tell you the truth,"Caspian began,"I was... I was... um..."

Caspian paused for a moment to drink...

"To tell you the truth, was heading to the Laguz City..."[/glow]

[arya]

((I know I said I wouldn't be on while I was on vacation, but my mom is letting me use her laptop. ^^)))

Shasta's ears pricked forward in alarm, although she did nothing else to betray her emotions. Instead, she casually took a sip of her ice tea before replying. "What for?" She asked quietly.

[--+Caspian Risen+--]

[glow=teal,2,300]He held his breath....

"I... I'm a Laguz killer."

He sighed and leaned back in his chair, his head in his paws...[/glow]
