“There she is,” Cliff said, smiling widely once he spotted the woman. Once upon a time, when he was younger and more naive, he had been sure she was the woman he’d eventually end up being with. He didn’t know, even then, if he was going to get married because he still believed that he was too young then to even think about it and he didn’t know the validity of marriage anyway, but Cliff knew that she was the closest to him getting to that point. Granted they had just been dumb kids, but still. “You too busy to see me now, huh?” Cliff teasingly asked her, as he enveloped her in a hug, before gesturing for her to sit beside him at the bar at Mayhem Maidens. Despite the fact that the strip club was owned by the Wolves, Cliff still liked being there, even when he wasn’t spending money on anything more than just a drink. “Can I buy you a drink?”
his familiar voice brought a smile to her face, the question bringing a small bout of laughter. there was always something so warm and familiar about cliff, something that gave avery an odd sense of comfort, even till this day. hugging him back with ease, she then sat beside him, playfully rolling her eyes before she looked him over briefly. once upon a time ago... she would have done anything for the other- gone anywhere he asked her to, hell, it was all she wanted; to be by his side. silly kids, that’s what they were, but that fondness never faded. while her friendship with him sometimes caused a bit of controversy, avery made it clear that he was a part of her that she would not let go of, not for anyone and they’d have to accept that. “you know your money is no good here, cliff.” she replied sweetly before gesturing to the bartender to serve them some drinks. “it’s the thought that counts though.” she added with a wink and small smile, turning a bit to face him now. “so, what brings you here? did you need something or did you just miss me?”
