"Wait! What are yo-" [ WELCOME BACK ]
Ok, so the ‘why not’ was completely obvious, the con list being:
2. Fraternizing with the enemy was against SOIS regulations.
4. It would definitely set a bad example for Clover.
5. And, finally, ew, Dio.
Meanwhile, on the pro side was…
1. He would finally shut the hell up.
2. It would definitely tick him off.
And ok, maybe that shouldn’t have been a good enough list of pro reasons. But if there was one thing Alice had learned in her life, it was that living the way she did was very conducive to making poor life decisions based on petty spite. And hey, when he wasn’t yapping his head off, Dio could maybe be considered a little bit pretty. In the right lighting.
And so, with a mental shrug, she fisted a manicured hand in the front of Dio’s shirt and hauled him forward.
“Wait!” he demanded. “What are yo-”
She ignored him and mashed their lips together in an inspiringly passionate, if totally hateful, kiss. And never let it be said that Alice was inconsiderate; she cradled the back of his head like he was a goddamn princess because if you’re gonna plant one on somebody you might as well go the full nine yards. Well, that and she was finally able to file away that his sleek-looking L’Oreal hair was actually as damn soft as it looked.
“Whew. Well. That was an experience.”
