Banyan Tree Resort, Friday [Evening]

The temperature was holding at a not-so-chilly 27 degrees celsius (or eighty degrees fahrenheit for some of you). As night fell, a few clouds formed in the sky, but so far they seemed to be drifting past peacefully, releasing no unpleasant showers on the resort.

Nightfall meant the bars were open and booming, but there was plenty to do elsewhere, too!

"It's okay, James," Olive said placatingly, reaching out to pat his arm. "I was also once awkward and young and unkissed like you. Your moment in the sun will come!"

"You're such a comfort," he said, shaking his head. "However did you overcome such obvious deficiencies?"

"You'd have to ask those who chose to see past them," Olive said, clutching a hand to her heart. "I mean, I'm not kissing myself over here."
pursuedthestars: ([neu] forward)

"You sound like you're trying not to brag but you want to brag so you want me to ask," Jim said observantly.

"Well, I'm still awkward and all you have to do to take care of the 'young' part is, you know, age, so that seemed like the easiest one to hone in on," Olive noted, making a face at him. "So. You know. Besides, what would I brag about?"

She was maybe still a little extra-aware about the fact that theoretically everyone at that party had seen her and Victor, so. Maybe Jim'd missed it? She could hope.
pursuedthestars: ([neu] we are young)

"I don't know, what would you have to brag about?" Jim asked, turning the question around on her. "I know it can't be your way with words since that was just the opposite of smooth right there."

[identity profile] dirtiest-skank.livejournal.com 2012-10-14 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't brag," Olive replied, sniffing and tossing her hair. "It's unbecoming."

That was a non-answer.
pursuedthestars: ([hap] whee)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2012-10-14 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
"No, it's not. Bragging's healthy," Jim told her, shaking his head. "It boosts your ego and makes everyone envious. That's awesome. Also, you're avoiding the question and it's adorable."

Olive rolled her eyes at him. "I'm a lady. I don't kiss and tell. I just...make out with people in front of an entire party of people I invited. But still." She gestured to herself. "Lady."
pursuedthestars: ([neu] lean)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2012-10-14 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
"You are not a lady," he laughed, shaking his head. "You can tell me that all you want but I will never believe you. Especially not now, Egg. Making out in front of a room full of people? That's something I'd do!"

"Whatever, it was romantic," Olive declared. "Not my fault your drunk ass was still hanging around. And...everyone else's drunk ass. And it might be my fault."

It was definitely her fault.
pursuedthestars: ([neu] hey there)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2012-10-14 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
"I might have been drunk but I was still adorable. And I made sure I had an escort back to my room."

Sure, it was Karolina and it had been just an escort but still, it'd been fun.

"Besides, you invited my drunk ass, Egg. You wanted me there."

[identity profile] dirtiest-skank.livejournal.com 2012-10-14 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
"You were one of the ones I invited," Olive agreed. "Who was the escort?"
pursuedthestars: ([hap] glad to be here)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2012-10-14 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
"Karolina," he replied. "And she was a very capable escort. I didn't end up passed out in the sand or in a lion's mouth anywhere."

"We did swear an oath to each other that we'd designate-walk people," Olive noted. "Good to hear she followed through since I...totally forgot about that. I'll give my roomie a high-five for delivering you home safely."
pursuedthestars: ([hap] good times)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2012-10-14 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
"See, if I'd relied on you, I would have ended up some animal's dinner because you were just too busy swapping spit," Jim sighed, shaking his head. "I know where I rank now."

"Hey," Olive said, holding a finger up haltingly. "Hey now. I was sharing a moment with a gentleman friend. Let's not deromanticize it just yet, please. Gross. I'm glad you weren't eaten by a lion, though."
pursuedthestars: ([hap] smirk)

[personal profile] pursuedthestars 2012-10-14 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
"Gentleman friend?" Jim repeated. "When did you turn seventy?"

[identity profile] dirtiest-skank.livejournal.com 2012-10-14 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
"I'll be seventy-one years young on November sixth," Olive told him proudly. "Keepin' it classy, James. I'm good at it."
