Welcome to Gaia! ::

She didn't like seeing that smile vanish, and felt somehow....at fault for his anger. But when he pulled her close again, she sighed happily and let him swallow her up into an amazing kiss. Ollie's words hardly reached her, though a tiny voice in the back of her head let her know that his words had merit.

The guards would come, and they might not care that Ollie and Rob hadn't started the fight. They might even find her at fault.

"Yer brother speaks the truth," she breathed against his lips, pulling away just enough to speak before kissing him again, her body fairly molded to his. The adrenaline from the fight was doing wonderful things to her body and being so close to him wasn't helping. "Ya should be leavin', though no part o' me wants you to go."

Soibhan pulled away enough to look Rob in the eyes, a smile curling her lips. Her fingers cupped one side of his face. "Save yer smile fer me, Rob. We'll be havin' that song some day." Her smile turned shy as the feeling spread through her, something she hardly ever felt. "If that's ok with ya, I mean..."

She wouldn't get her story and information from Ollie, either. Could she have ruined things any more than she already had?

"I will," she said softly, watching them go with a sigh before dropping a pile of coins in front of the barkeep as payment for their drinks and the problems she'd brought with.

She would call for them without hesitation, because they'd proven themselves as warriors to her. Trusting them at her back in the future would not be hard for her. But right now, she had her own path to take.

And as she slipped out the back of the inn, the dock guards appeared through the front, but she was already gone, disappearing into the darkness and salt air.
