Valin and Ozzie 6
Valin is seated at one of the many computers in journalism room, quickly typing up his latest article.
Ozzie sits at a table by himself, quietly reading over a few papers, marking things out and rewriting, and the like. He glances at Valin every once in a while.
Valin, after striking a few keys on the keyboard, turns, smirking in a sickeningly smug fashion, "Done and done." As always...he's the first to be done with his article.
Ozzie gives a faint smile, shaking his head a bit to try and clear it, and beginning to work once again.
Valin, after saving the file, hops out of his chair, sauntering over to lean against the table and look at Ozzie. He kisses the boy's cheek, "Hey."
Ozzie, as always, blushes intensely, murmuring quietly, "Hi...."
Valin smirks, "So easily flustered, love...may I ask why?" Davis scowls, seeing this, but says nothing...for now.
Ozzie keeps his eyes on his work, making a quiet 'mm'ing sound. "..well..uh.."
Valin laughs, "But I don't mind...it's cute." Davis growls, walking over to them. He smacks Valin's shoulder harshly with a roll of paper, "Knock it off. I won't tell you again."
Ozzie frowns a bit, glancing back at the two for a moment. He stops a moment to watch Valin, giving him a slightly pleading look not to do anything too rash.
Valin grunts, baring his fake fangs at his cousin, "Lemme alone, asshole. I'm not in the mood for this." Davis growls back, "And what are you in the mood for? Getting in Ozzie's pants?"
Ozzie blushes faintly turning a frowning, "..please, don't argue..."
Valin, ignoring Ozzie for the moment, smiles, "Perhaps...." Davis steps back, appalled, "Sick..."
Ozzie blinks, saying nothing.
Valin shrugs, sitting down as Davis departs into the back room. "He's so easy to get angry, hm?"
Ozzie, still a bit red in the face, nods. "Yeah.."
Valin looks over at what Ozzie is writing, "What's the article on?"
Ozzie mms, turning a bit to look at Valin, holding up the sheet of paper, "Just this.."
Valin looks it over, nodding, "I see. Think it'll be ready by Friday?"
Ozzie gives a small nod, "Yeah, if I can concentrate on it.."
Valin raises an eyebrow, "Meaning you want to be left alone?"
Ozzie laughs, shaking his head, "No, no. I don't like being alone, much. I mean
I just need to try and focus on it.."
Valin shrugs, "Either way, I don't mind."
Ozzie gives a small nod, "I always enjoy your company.."
Valin smiles, "And I enjoy yours."
Ozzie smiles, blushing faintly and shifting a bit to look at his paper, and try again to begin working.
Valin watches him, perfectly content with doing so...for the time being...
Ozzie continues about his work, having a hard time keeping his mind on that, and not Valin�
Valin smirks, noting Ozzie's lack of inspiration, "Should I go?"
Ozzie looks up at him, mming quietly, unsure of what to say.
Valin waits for an answer, watching Ozzie.
Ozzie gives a small shake of his head in an attempt to clear it. "If you'd like to..."
Valin nods, hrming, "But first, one question."
Ozzie cocks his head slightly, "..what's that?"
Valin puts one arm around Ozzie, "You know what Thursday is, ne?"
Ozzie blushes a bit, trying to think, "..I..can't recall, at the moment...."
Valin raises an eyebrow, "Oh? Gee...I'd have thought you'd remember something like this."
Ozzie blinks, still a little too out of it to be remembering much of anything at the moment.
Valin laughs, "February 14th..."
Ozzie mms quietly. 14...February... He shakes his head for a moment, suddenly blinking. "...Valentine's Day...?" It had never been anything all that big in
his past, so even though he knew the date, it was nothing that he looked forward to.
Valin nods, "That's right...so what do you want to do?"
Ozzie blinks once again, "...do...?"
Valin nods, "Well...yeah. I mean, it is Valentine's Day."
Ozzie watches him for a moment, giving a tiny shrug, "...well...I don't know....it's never been all that important of a day to me..."
Valin smiles, "I thought I'd take you somewhere nice. Then I remembered I have no money...so what do you wanna do?"
Ozzie, once again, shrugs, "What ever you'd like...I'm fine with anything, really..."
Valin puts a hand on Ozzie's shoulder, stroking it a bit, "...anything?"
Ozzie blushes a bit, "...I-I suppose..."
Valin smiles, leaning down to kiss the boy's neck, "Sounds great." ...One would think the other kids would be startled. But they've known Valin longer than that.
Ozzie turns an even brighter shade of red, "...what did you have in mind...?"
Valin smiles, "Oh...you'll see...Trust me."
Ozzie blinks, almost not wanting to know and giving a small nod, "...alright.."
Valin hrms, nodding curtly and returning to his computer to begin working others articles.
Ozzie watches him, shaking his head after a moment once again and returning to his article.
