After the tour with Mikey, Amphi was famished. And the weather was so hot, it felt like a oven baking a fish right now. No it felt like grilling a fish. She was becoming grilled fish.
Her sweatshirt was unzipped, revealing her white bikini as she hoarded the small lunch she had indulged in. Underneath one of the tree's shade, you could hear the pop of a soda can, and a small happy sigh, the cool drink relieving some of the grilled fish effect.
Even if she was alone, it was nice to just sit back and relax like this.
With no interruptions.
Ahhhhhh Summer.

Did someone say 'no interruptions'? Because here came Lou running down the path after spotting a certain mermaid.
"WELL HELLO THERE, FISH LIPS." Lou proclaimed loudly just because Amphi looked so damn relaxed. The boil himself was wearing a white wife beater, black shorts, sunglasses, and holding... An umbrella? Well, this sun might not have set him ablaze like the human sun did, but that didn't mean he had to like it. "Careful or you might end up like that grilled fish you got there, and I don't even think hedgehog would be interested in crispy tits."

Amphi froze as the fish barely made it to her mouth, looking up at the vampire boil that made her life sometimes hell. Sometimes he was okay.
Probably not today.
It took a full minute to figure out who hedgehog was as she studied his umbrella. Well he wouldn't leave her alone if she told him too, so she scooted over and prepared for his bothering until he got his fill.
"Hello Lou, you look....comfortable with your umbrella." She finished her bite before speaking again, looking at the dish. "If Hedgehog is referring to Roch, then he is already uninterested seeing as we have broke up." Her shoulders sagged a little.
"He already hates crispy tits...." she was using Lou's nickname for herself. Shame.

Oh Amphi, how painful it must've been to go through such turmoil. How many days you must've sulked, and tears you must've shed.

But you just made Lou the happiest man in Halloween. He gasped the air so hard his windpipes whistled, hands immediately smacking his cheeks and discarding the umbrella without a care. Within seconds his kiester was firmly planted on the ground next to her, practically glued to her shoulder. His smile closely resembled the look a small boil got when shown his first nudie magazine. He felt glorious.
"I think this feeling I'm feeling right now might be better than sex~" The vampire sang. It only took a moment to retract his statement. "Well, not really. But it's pretty close. What did his face look like when you dropped him like a sack of potatoes? Did he cry a little? I bet he bawwed like a scareling."
Then Lou stopped. "Oh. You poor ghoul. Not having a boy toy must be hard on you." His hands left his cheeks in favor of embracing her. "It's okay. I'll be your rebound."

She stared longer at him, wondering why his smile was like...like....She couldn't even described. And he just.
She shifted a little more to accommodate the vampire, clearly unsure of how to react to his genuine sympathy. It was almost surreal to the mermaid! It almost seemed like Lou actually cared!
"Better than sex? What does tht feel like?" She popped another bite of fish in her mouth. "Roch and I never...got...to....that...level........................" She flushed. And why would Lou be feeling it right now???
"I..I don't know at all?" She offered, "I didn't say it to his face. My sister was sick so I wrote him a letter and returned his ring and then went into the sea. when I came back, He wouldn't even talk to me....and it seemed he found other ghouls to um....be...intimate with." She blankly stared at him as he seemed to move in closer, her hand coming up to block his face from getting ANY CLOSER. "What...is a rebound?"

Lou's joy halted momentarily, drawing back from the ghoul.
... Hedgehog hadn't tapped that?

"Dear sweet Sally and Skeleton Jack, you're a virgin."
How did? What the? Lou didn't even. Who WOULDN'T get with that?
"Nevermind what a rebound is. You don't need one." The vampire straightened himself up and dusted off as if he hadn't been presentable before. "Sex is awesome. You should have it. You should have it with me. I know how to sex." The vampire said with a srs face, eyes staring into her soul.

Amphi started to turn really bright red. Like super bright red. Like tomato red.
"I understand that it is uncommon after being a couple after so long but Roch was very um..." She flushed, "Respectable." She thought of the one time they had come close and her face buried in her hands. Nope this was not the time. It hadn't gone and further and so the mermaid was still pure.
And looking to remain that way Lou. /STARES/
"But...For the Rebound...." Amphi flushed as he stared at her. "No."
That was really blunt so she tried again but it still came out:

"Respectable. Psch. He was a chump." Lou let himself rest back against the tree, interlocking his hands and resting them on his stomach. Smiling, the boil turned his head away and instead looked forward. "I hadn't really been expecting a yes. You don't stay that way without having a reason to, I suppose." Her bluntness only made him giggle.
"Let me guess." The boil paused and yawned. "You're wanting some suave young boil with his shining armor and pure white skeletal steed to sing you sweet nothings into the night and propose to you as the moon gently caress the deep blue waves of the ocean. Then and only then will you dare to give it away, yeah?" Lou waggled his eyebrows, hoping that she'd say he was at least half right. The vampire loved being right.

Amphi snorted, "It doesn't matter now since we aren't together." She added. "A reason?" She blinked.
While he described his assumption, Amphi finished her lunch and took another drink of her soda. Then placed it off to the side until he was done and looked at him.
"Why would I want someone so pompous?" She said, staring at Lou. "Do most ghouls dream of a somebody like that?" She shrugged, "And if we were to do it in the waves, I'd most likely drown him. When I get excited, I forget landwalkers can't live in the sea like me..." She looked thoughtful.
Before adding...
"I don't know why I am keeping it, because I'm suppose too? Everyone tells me that till marriage is how it's suppose to me or something. I guess I'll wait till then?"
Yes sound plan.

"That's certainly what the romance novels say." So he had been wrong. Fancy that. He supposed her tastes were admirable, and the reasoning for sans waves was amusing, to say the least.
"Well you know. I'm dead. I don't have to breathe." Lou winked, though said nothing more on that matter.
"Do think about what you're saying though. Waiting till marriage because everyone says you're supposed to. It's quite trivial reasoning." The vampire noticed a little beetle meandering in the grass beside him. "It's not really anybody's business what you do with your life but yours. If they look down on you for doing what you thought was best at the time, they're unnecessary." Lou flicked the little bug away, watching the creature disappear into the sunset.
"Can I have some of your soda?"

"Oh...Well those are...novels for a reason aren't they? Play more into the fantasy and dreams?" Amphi laughed, discovering something. "You read romance novels Lou? Do you plan to sweep someone off their feet?" Because if so he was going about it the wrong way.
"I admire your persistence Lou, But I'm afraid that the answer is still no." She crossed her legs, moving her sitting position a little to rest on the trunk of the tree.
"I don't think about much, sunshine and bubbles or whatever." She smiled at him, then it turned to a frown. "I suppose that would be true, unless you are involved with someone. Friends or a lover, don't you think that your actions will hurt them because of what you decide to do?" She said it...and then thought about it. It was only because she had hurt Roch over the hunters that she could even say something like that.
She too watch the creature disappear as she thought about what he said. "It's clever, the way you word it....." She flushed, "...Oh my jack, why does this keep getting just..." She startled when he asked for her soda, picking it up and handing it over to him.
Her mind settled on their discussion, already aware that she just give up on it. Lou was the expert on things like sex right. Right.
"When did you lose yours..." She waved at all over him.

"I have read romance novels." Lou spoke shamelessly as he took the soda. "Or rather, I have studied romance novels. True that they may be fantasy, but they wouldn't sell if someone didn't want that." Not that he was going to give them what they wanted. It was more to explain to them how ridiculous their dreams are, and that they should want a man who speaks his mind all the time instead. You know, like him.
The boil didn't fountain the soda. He just drank it like they were some kind of old chums that didn't mind getting eachother's mouth diseases. Not that Lou had any mouth diseases... butyouneverknow.
Ignoring her second 'no', he continued. "I wouldn't know about that." Lou sat the can back down between them. Mm. That was refreshing. "I've never been 'involved' with someone." Air quotations. He had been INVOLVED with many people, but not at the level she described. "And generally people can't stand me enough to consider me a friend. Which is fine." It appeared as if he gave absolutely no ******** about that. "I wouldn't want someone thinking they had the privilege to boss me around just because we drank cider and watched a soap opera together or something stupid like that."
Oh god don't call him clever Amphi. He doesn't need anymore ego boosts. That was when she really surprised him, however. A ghoul? Asking about his... Escapades? HAH! What a delight. The vampire's eyebrow raised as his head snapped back around. "Quite a question out of an innocent young ghoul like you." Though he didn't put off giving her an answer. "Truth is? I don't really know. If you count the life I lived before, I'm not sure how many beautiful women I had relations with up to this point." And he was sure he had relations with beautiful women before he died. In his mind, he had been a millionaire playboy that ran into some bad luck. "If you're not counting that, I guess it was about 3 days after I woke up, got dressed, and got my bearings straight. She was... Not a pretty lady. I think my exact line was 'I'd hit it! With a shovel!', and it went downhill from there. Or uphill. Depending on your perspective."

"Well dreams and fantasies sell better cause it's a world to escape from." Amphi looked away, "I prefer guys who like to speak their mind and who make things clear for me. I'm not the smartest ghoul, so yeah..." She flushed, not realizing that she had pretty much mirrored his thoughts. Except she didn't like how Lou phrased things. A little more Class Lou, less Crass.
She picked the can up when he set it down, taking another drink as she listened to him. "Never?" Ear fins perked just a little, "There has been no one you've even considered a friend?" Wow, that was....kind of sad. She really wanted to at least hug him and let him know that she'd be his friend or something. But warnings about the last time he got hugs in his bat form replayed in her head. So she instead reached over and patted him on the head. "I'll consider you a friend but I have no intentions of bossing you around." That was the best he would get.
"Well....I am getting to know you better." Amphi mumbled, "Bad or good sides."
"Huh, just like that?" She took another sip of her soda and tried to imagine waking up and going right into the act. But her mind couldn't wrap around it and even before it got to the kissing part, her face was blown up to the extremely hazardous red level. "You're an odd boil Lou."

Lou's eyebrows waggled when she mentioned she liked guys that 'speak their mind'. "You'll never find anyone who speaks their mind more than I doooo." Couldn't blame a boil for trying, right? Okay well maybe you could...
The boil's face scrunched up when she gave him a pat on the head. "Hey now. Watch the 'do." He worked very hard to make sure his hair was up to satisfactory standards! "I don't need friends. Nobody's gonna be as awesome as I am, after all." Even if it was nice to have people actually interested in himself... But that was beside the point! "If you consider me a friend, you'll never want to sleep with me, so I refuse to acknowledge your friendship." He tried to give her a mean mug, but Lou couldn't look angry if he tried. Within seconds he was smiling again.
"Just like that. Met her at a club, went to her house, and snuck out the next morning before she could offer me breakfast. It was a simpler time. I'd get my clothes from trash cans and relax in the biggest cardboard boxes I could find." And for some reason, he looked back on it fondly. "Now I've got all these responsibilities." Not that he took a single one of them seriously.
Wait. Why was she so red? "What're you blushing about?" Before she could answer, his mind came up with a reason of its own. "Picturing me naked, are you? Well, you don't have to imagine. I can just show you."

Amphi covered her face with one hand to hide the redness while the other kept petting his head and chuckled nervously. "Well you are one of the few who speaks TOO much of his mind. And mostly about perverted things." She dropped her hands at his insistence of not messing his hair and chuckled again. Just not so nervously.
"Oh OH I know the answer to this one!" Amphi slapped a fist down in her palm and pointed at Lou, "We can still be friends, but I'll never sleep with you because then it would be Friends with Benefits! You need one of those right?" She frowned, "Ah That's sad..." Why? She didn't know, but she gave him a sad sort of pitying look. he obviously needed a Friend w/Benefits after all. She's have to search for him then.
"You lived on your own like that!" Amphi squeaked and before she could really stop herself, she pulled him into a hug. "How can you look at it so fondly Lou! That's terrible to wake up alone and have to resort and just-asdfghjkl" She was hugging him really tightly. "Does this mean you don't have family either?"
Oh my jack the thought was crushing.
But his next comment had her eyes widening and her hands letting him go in a instant.
"I WAS NOT THINKING OF YOU NAKED." But now she was.
Jackdammit mind you stahp.
