“Well I'm very glad you did wear it. It's definitely making my night.
Are we done here?" I reached back for my wallet.
“I think so." She pulled her chair back and stood.
I allowed my eyes to wander over her long, bare legs as I fished another set of twenties out of my wallet and settled them on the table.
As we left I waved to the waiter to let him know we were Leaving. He immediately rushed over and offered a Little bow before thanking us and requesting we visited again in the near future.
As we departed, I reached over and placed my hand on Olivia's lower back. She was a few inches shorter than my six feet and two inches. I was a little surprised when I didn't feel her flinch or move away from my hand. I guessed it was progress and didn't get a chance to test my luck for we soon emerged to find Vince holding the limo door open for us.
Once we were settled back in the car I slipped my hand inside my jacket and pulled out her contract.
“What are you doing with that?" She seemed to become slightly uneasy at seeing such a potent reminder of what I really was.
“I want to try something." I handed her the roll of parchment and removed a cigarette lighter from my pocket.
“Well, don't get any weird ideas."
“Remember who you're talking to." I winked at her and felt somewhat gladdened when the corners of her mouth lifted into an amused smile.
“Here, take this and try to burn the contract."
"I could set the car on fire."
“If you do then I can put it out easily enough.”
She didn't seem too reassured by that but took the lighter from me and quickly flicked it open to reveal the red and blue flame. With an almost eager anticipation, she placed the flame over the parchment and awaited it to set alight.
It didn't.
I watched as she waved the Lighter over the contract, trying to get the thing to light but it never did. The paper didn't even grow warm.
Eventually she seemed to get the point and killed the lighter before turning to Look at me. Her eyes weren't friendly.
“I'm sorry, I just wanted to test that out. You can only destroy a contract if you're the holder. Pretty cool, eh?" I plucked it out of her hand and then took back my lighter.
“You trying to prove a point?" She folded her arms across those pert breasts and her expression darkened.
