Aurora laughed softly. "So which wage is it? $25 or the drinks?" she asked softly. Aurora lined the cue ball up again, then frowned. "well then... this isn't good..." She huffed a sigh, then hit the ball. It bounced off the padded wall. "Nothing to shoot. You're up." She smiled.

*He stands up, and takes the blue chalk cube. He rubs it on the tip of his stick, and gives it a slight knock, making the dust fall off. He then walks to the pool table, and aims the cue ball to the wall, and strikes. The ball reboounces and hit's three striped balls, each of them falling in different corners*
"I think I will take the fee on the drinks....."
*He then leans over and aims the cue ball to which seems a fairly easy shot and direct shot, he pulls back his stick, and hit's. The cur ball rolls right next to the planned cours, missing the ball.*
"Ah....looks like I missed...."
*He stands up, and takes a step backwards. He looks at Aurora and tells*
"Your turn"
*He then takes a sip from his whiskey: "Mm! Simply delicious"*

Aurora walked to the other side of the table; letting her hand lightly trail on the wooden frame. she grabbed the chalk again and examined the possibilities. "So like any other type of drinks besides straight-up hard liquor?" She asked. She removed the chalk block from the tip of the pool stick, leaned over and hit the cue ball. It rolled to a ball and connected. The ball gently rolled into the pocket. Aurora walked again to the ball and looked. "Hmm... Getting tricky." She smiled, leaned down then lightly tapped the cue ball. It rolled a few inches then stopped. "You're up."

"Drinks....I enjoy a good fruit cocktail."
*He takes a few steps and looks for possible strikes...moving his head slowly from left to right*
"It's been twice you let me play...."
*He then leans on the table, aims his stick at the cue ball and strikes. The cue ball rolls and hit's a striped ball, but it continues to move and collides with two solides, each going to another striped ball. The first striped ball falls into the side pocket, and one of the two other balls enters the side pocket, while the other balls simply roll away*
"Ah.....I missed my shot."
*He then watches the table once more....and decides on his next move. He moves to the opposite side, and bends on the table. He aims at the cue balls, and nudges it. the cue ball is hit at the side, it moves in a strange angle. It moves in a corner, just next to the black ball.*
"Oh my.....what a wasted shot of mine..."
*He stands back up, and colors the tip of his pool stick once more with the blue chalk*
"But...my all time favorit drink....is Rivella"

Aurora winked at him as she circled the table, "You did say to go easy on you. Hm... And so far I'm doing a good job of letting you get ahead..." She leaned down, nodded to herself, aimed, and fired the cue ball. As the ball rolled, she walked around to the other side and watched it hit another ball into a pocket. Once the cue ball stopped, Aurora hit it again to the upper left pocket. It knocked the solid in, then rebounded off the wall. "Hmm..." she lightly popped her lips a few times, then smirked. She hit the cue ball. It rolled and tapped the 8-ball; blocking his shots. "damn..." She sighed with a small smile. "Oh, and what is Rivella?"

*He laughs, then uses his stick to calculate the angles of his shot*
"Rivella is a drink from Switzerland....I have yet to find one bottle of it anywhere else in the world"
*He then positions himself, to what seems to be shooting the white ball straight at the "Black Ball". He pulls his pole back, and then rams the lower part of the cue ball, making it jump over the black ball and hitting a striped ball, and score, the striped ball rolls to a corner, making a slight "bonk" as it falls into the pocket.*
"Now....I have a pretty easy shot for my last ball..."
*He smiles at Aurora, and then leans over and strikes his cue ball, making it rebound on the carpeted wall and hitting his final ball into a pocket.*
"Now let's see if I can manage to make that hit count....."
*He moves to the opposite side of the table, lowers himself on the table slightly, and slightly nudges the white ball, making it roll slowly towards the black ball, a almost perfect shot, almost. One of the solid balls was in the way, and stops the cue ball straight in his path*
"Ah....I knew something would happen...."
*He moves to his drink, which he finishes in one shot*
"I used to drink Rivella when I was a kid, every time I take a sip from it, it's like travelling back in time. How about you, do you have that "Special" drink or food?"

Aurora smiled as she lined up for her shot, "Vanilla Creme Soda." She smiled softly, pulled the stick back and hit the cue. It rolled into the solid, then gently knocked it into the pocket. "Last one..." She muttered softly. She crouched down to be eye-level with the table. "Also my mom's skirt steak..." She told him as she looked up at him. She stood back up, lined herself, then nudged the cue ball forward. It rolled ahead, knocked against the last solid and the last solid slowly rolled to the pocket, then very slowly rolled off the edge. "That was just cruel." She laughed, walked around to the other edge, grabbed the chalk, dusted the tip once more, then took her aim. For the last time, Aurora's pool stick connected with the cue ball. The white ball rolled, knocked the black ball. The black ball rolled to the pocket.... and hit the corner of the hole. "Ohh! damn!" She laughed, then smiled and looked at Mark, "That's just not cool... looks like you got me beat." She winked again, then leaned against the pool stick as she waited for him to hit the ball in.

"Vanilla Creme Soda.....and Skirt Steak....Interesting. How can steak be so special? I mean steaks are common enough."
*He then takes the chalk and scratches it on the top of his stick, and the wipes off the extra off it.*
"And you have indeed let me a very easy strike..."
*He leans over, and hit's the ball without much difficulty, the black ball rolls to a pocket....*
"Let's see if I win that wager...Half price on my drinks is it?"
*The ball slowly rolls, straight to the pocket, and it falls in*
"It seems I am very lucky tonight....I still want to know how a Skirt Steak can be so special thought"

"It's much thinner and more tender than the other types of steak... comes from a different part of the cow.. And how she makes it is just amazing." She smiled. "And no, you won so that means the rest of your drinks are free." She looked over at the bar. Darren gave her a nod to acknowledge the wager. Aurora smiled and looked at Mark, "You play darts?"

"Darts....now that is a truly fun game. Sure I will play."
*He set's his pool stick back in the rack, and goes to the bar counter and orders a Pomtini*
"Care to wager anything on this game?"
*He smiles at her, obviously knowing he just cannot lose a game of darts.*

"Oh boy. It wouldn't be very fair... I'm horrible at darts and I bet you'll actually laugh at how bad I am. Go ahead, give me your wager and I'll see if I like how it sounds and actually put forth some extra effort." She smiled as she put her pool stick up. She unlocked and opened the cabinet holding the darts. Aurora grabbed the 6 darts then gave the 3 blue ones to Mark.

*He takes the dart, and gently replies to her*
"Every time I hit the middle of the board, you will have to answer me one question truthfully, if you do, well you decide what I have to do if you hit the middle"

"Oh don't worry... I won't be hitting the middle... that would take a miracle for that to happen. But I accept." She smiled. Aurora held 2 darts in her left hand and the 3rd in her right. she lightly rolled the dart between her fingers and thumb.

"Aw common....il help you if you wish"
*He gives a slight chuckle, and places his three darts in between different fingers and aims at the board. He brings his hand closer to his torso, and throws the three darts at the same time, each of them hitting the Bulls-Eye*
"Your turn....And we still need a bet on what I need to do if you hit the middle."

"If I get a bulls eye.... I go behind the bar and create some drink that we both have to try it; no matter how disgusting it smells... and while I mix the drinks," She paused slightly and smirked, "You have to dance for me." The smirk on her lips grew slightly and she laughed softly. "But, like I said... no worries, I won't be getting any bulls eyes... Now you have 3 questions to ask me." She turned to the dartboard, gripped a dart and threw the darts individually. They all landed towards the middle of edges.

*He looks at you throw the darts, and takes a drink from his cocktail*
"Well, it seems I will not be dancing tonight."
*He then walks to a table, and pulls a chair for her.*
"Alright....my first question....what is your favorite flower?"

Post by Kiri on Aug 21, 2009 0:21:16 GMT -5
Aurora smiled softly and took the seat. "Thank you. My favorite flower... is sweet pea. It's a nice, gently flowery scent." She leaned back against the back of the chair, her eyes looking over Mark, "Next?"

"Sweat peas....."
*He then sit's on on his chair, leaning forward on the table, and asks her with a romantic smile*
"Which, is your favorite restaurent?"

Aurora smiled and lightly rested her elbow on the table and her chin in her palm. "A restaurant called 'The View'. It has a very classy bar and a magnificent view of the ocean. Every 10 or so tables is a built-in fireplace... It's so..." She closed her eyes and thought of a word, but ended up coming up with none. "It's... just gorgeous." She smiled as she slowly opened her eyes to look at him.

"Ah, the ocean.....such a wonderfull thing."
*As he says it, he looks up the ceiling, slightly daydreaming, and then lowers his eyes to Aurora, keeping his fanciful smile*
"And what, is your favorite gem?"
