Emily smiled softly as she watched Paul speak with one of her friend's that she saw at the bar every time she came. Her eyes watched as the brunette's smile widened as he let out a laugh, his eyes brightening once he looked her way, pressing a kiss to her cheek. "Em, you're not joining the conversation. Are you ok?"
Her eyes softened before she gave a nod, her hand squeezing his as she sucked her bottom lip between her teeth. "Yeah, I'm good. I'm really good."
Paul waved the other man away, his eyes still trained on the beautiful woman in front of him before his fingers slowly traced across her pale cheek. "Are you having fun?"
"I am, yeah. It seems like you are too."
His eyes slowly widened when hers averted from his, her hands clasping the beer in front of her instead of his warm hand. "Oh Emily, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to get caught up in a conversation with that guy."
Emily immediately shook her head as she looked back up to him with a smile. "No Paul, it's totally fine. I'm glad you're making friends here." She gave a grin as her fingers glided across his subtle stubble. "Lets me know that I can take you here more often."
Paul smiled down to the shorter brunette and kissed her nose, taking her wandering hand in his. "That sounds promising."
"It does, does it?"
"Very."
Emily's eyes darkened slightly when they glanced down at his grinning lips, and she felt her heart speed pick up slightly as her tongue darted out to lick the corner of her mouth. "Do you wanna get out of here?" She grinned as his hand tightened around hers. "I could maybe show you a few more places."
Paul chuckled before helping her off the stool and holding her jacket out for her. "And what places would those be?"
"Well…" she put on her best thinking face as she slipped her arms through the sleeves of her coat. "There's a great thrift store just down the street, a nice movie theater a couple blocks away… and then there's my apartment."
The older man looked down in surprise, his mouth wide open. "You apartment?"
Emily smiled wide as she took his hand and led him outside into the foggy afternoon. "Trust me, you're not getting any of those special detours just yet, bud. But, I have an entire DVD series that I know you'd just love to watch with me."
"Which is?"
"Star Wars. Duh."
Paul grinned down to the brunette who tugged on his hand and slowly turned her around, backing her up slowly until her back gently hit the drivers side of her car. He watched as her eyes squinted up at him with curiosity before he bent his head down, softly capturing her lips with his.
Emily's eyes were wide as the older man's lips hit hers, his hands firmly cupping her elbows. When she felt him pull away, her shocked eyes looked up to him and she shook her head. "Why?"
"Why what?"
"Why did you kiss me?"
Paul let his eyes wander over her features before wiping a strand of hair from her forehead. "Every princess deserves to be kissed."
