BAD LUCK, BABY!

A GRIN STOLEN RIGHT FROM THE CHESHIRE CAT ; MADE SWEET IN THAT ALLURING WAY THAT WAS SIGNATURE TO THIS TROUBLE EMBODIED! &. of course, while upon the grip of those lethal claws, she had her prize ... she still found time to play. ( because here she had feared this night would be a bore! ) the accusation is made, coming with a pointed finger &. all, ... yet, it only ensures the smirk remains in place upon lips dressed in noir! ❝ oh spider, ❞ a tilt of her head; siren-like voice echoing with the sort of exhale that came with something that feigned exasperation at the effort of what was to follow ... but of course, the curtains were left intentionally open, &. it was allowed to show just how much she took pleasure in it.

a moment stolen, ( because of course she could. there is little the thief would not claim as hers ), underneath her signature mask, her eyes trace slow over him, appreciative of every second that leads her to that masked sight. the corners of lush lips are tugged upwards an inch, ❝ how well you know me. ❞

&. in the same second, she leaps out of the window, grappling hook echoing with its metallic 'whoosh' through the night air of new york! &. upon looking out the cat's planned escape route, she had ensured abother taunt would await, ... as upon the billboard on the opposite building, she had left her mark; a black cat drawn, &. above the signature trademark, read ; catch me if you can, xoxo.

let me tell you how it will be.

be thankful i don't take it all.

don't ask me what i want it for.

my advice for those who die? declare the pennies on your eyes.

you're working for no one but me.

look at all the lonely people.

who is it for?

where do they all come from?

where do they all belong?

look at him working.

what does he care?

nobody came.

no one was saved.

i'm still yawning.

please don't wake me.

leave me where i am.

i'm only sleeping.

everybody seems to think i'm lazy.

i don't mind.

i think they're crazy.

please don't spoil my day.

each day just goes so fast.

love me while you can.

a lifetime is so short.

what you've got means such a lot to me.

we make love all day long.

i'll make love to you if you want me to.

to lead a better life, i need my love to be here.

nobody can deny that there's something there.

someone is speaking.

i want her everywhere.

to love her is to need her everywhere.

i will be there.

in the town where i was born lived a man who sailed to sea.

our friends are all aboard.

full steam ahead!

cut the cable! drop the cable!

every one of us has all we need.

i know what it's like to be dead.

i know what it is to be sad.

she's making me feel like i've never been born.

who put all those things in your head?

you don't understand what i said.

no no, you're wrong!

i know that i'm ready to leave.

i've got something i can laugh about.

i feel good in a special way.

i'm in love, and it's a sunny day.

i'm so proud to know that she is mine.

tell me that you've got everything you want.

you don't get me.

you can't see me.

look in my direction.

she no longer needs you.

you want her, you need her.

you think she needs you.

he'll be there any time at all.

he does everything he can.

take a drink from his special cup.

you're feeling fine.

my head is filled with things to say.

when i get near you, the games begin to drag me down.

i want to tell you i feel hung up, but i don't know why.

i don't mind.

i could wait forever. i've got time.

sometimes i wish i knew you well.

i didn't know what i would find there.

did i tell you i need you every single day of my life?

you were meant to be near me.

i want you to hear me.

when i'm with you, i want to stay there.

turn off your mind.

this   is   ridiculous   ,   he   thinks   as   he   begins   preparing   for   bed   ,   annoyed   at   himself   for   having   these   conflicting   feelings.   there   was   a   time   when   the   cat   was   simply   a   nuisance to him   ━━   a   thief   who   got   in   his   way   too   often   for   his   liking   ,   constantly   tugging   at   his   moral   code   &   making   him   rethink   his   training & way of doing things.   there   should   be   relief   in   her   absence   ,   but   even   without   her   here ,   his   mind   wanders   to   her still   ,   from   her   teasing   lilt   to   her   incredible   skills   ,   all   down   to   the   way   her   body   feels   pressed   up   against   his   own   ,   the   taste   of   those   dark   ,   enticing   lips.   loid   shakes   his   head   ━━   no   more   thoughts   on   it.   he'll   sleep   &   carry   on   in   life   as   he's   always   done   ━━   alone.

THE SHADOWS ARE A GIRL'S BEST FRIEND, : WELL, ASIDE WITH THE SPARKLE OF DIAMONDS, OF COURSE! the darkness embraced her figure, offering the sneaky feline the advantage that was bound to always be hers! it had not been over an hour, since the cat found her way in, ( as she always does! ) to pass the time, she'd gotten herself comfortable: curiosity having got its claws upon her, ... objects looked over on the desk, &. what else did she decide to have upon her paws, but the small journal left behind ... the smirk upon enticing noir lips stretching just slightly further as she reached for it, &. began to flip through the pages. practical things, statements left vague enough to reveal anything clearly if one were to discover it ... if that someone, was not the cunning bad luck's charm, of course.

so, she waited. lounging on the loveseat, just waiting for the prize! &. that patience is rewarded, with the sound of the jingle of keys, a familiar cadence of steps that could be silent to anyone else. but felicia hardy is not like anyone else ... there is no-one else like her!

&. THE CAT CAN NOT BE RID OF ITS FUR ; TOYING WITH THINGS IS IN HER NATURE! she waits in silence, keeping accurate count where his steps lead. the sound of fabric being slid off; his jacket, no doubt. mannerisms recalled easily, &. she finds further private amusement just how predictable someone who is unpredictable to most is to her.
