Tavern Talk

    Nine was working in the Tavern, still thinking about how calm Dorian heart beat was. Even when they kissed, hell even the one time Dorian was handsy on him it was calm, it really unnerved him. He stood there wiping a mug as he was lost in thought, to the point Ingrid came over and grab his wrist "Hey now, keep wiping the mug and it might disappear." she teased him.

Nine looks to her and then looks down to the mug "hmm oh...right." slowly setting it down. "Sorry, just...have alot on my mind." he told her.

Ingrid went to pour a drink for a customer "Anything I can help with?" she ask. Putting the bottle away and moved next to Nine, propping herself against the counter.

Nine stared at her and then sighs "Its ....nothing." he tried to say.

Ingrid arch a brow "This is about pretty boy isn't it. The one who was all over you the other night?"she ask bluntly "Hun there is nothing you can say I haven't heard or been through myself. Honestly I am the best person to talk to. Plus your slacking in your duties soo talk." 

Nine groan some, but slouched in defeat "OK fine. It's...it's just that his heart beat...its calm." he state to her.

Ingrid tilt his head "Really? All bent out of shape over a heartbeat?" she ask him.

Nine stared at her "No...its...ugh..like ok so people heartbeats races when...you get into situations." he tried to in the most awkward manner explain.

Ingrid stared at him "So you two fucked and his heartbeat never changed?" again blunt as ever.

Nine blushed and says "WHAT NOOO....WHAT!?!? We haven't..sheesh...no we kissed but like his heartbeat was the same and even if he is handsy its the same. Like....I feel....I feel like.." he groan some.

"Like he's not into it or you?" she ask him, Nine giving her a nod. "I see. Well I mean maybe you're not doing it right."

Nine grimace some "I know how to kiss and I am actually good at it thank you. I just don't know. He was paid to fuck me apparently..so its all weird now."

Ingrid smirked "Oh you actually liked this guy. Well I mean he could just be going cause of the pay, like he's just not into you."

Nine frowns "Thats what I am thinking...he's staying at my house..."

"WHAT!? OH honey. He is likely using you for a free ride." Ingrid states "Like free room and board and if the only down fall is sex, then he thinking thats not bad."

Nine just shrunk more "I didn't think of that." he say in a quiet tone.

Ingrid huff some "Nine...just becareful ok. One I don't want to replace you, you are a hell of a worker and two you should never let anyone walk all over you."

Nine looks at the counter and would start wiping it "Yeah." 

Ingrid would let out a small sigh "Just....watch him. I mean hell maybe he's dead." she snorts.

Nine stop and stared at the counter "Dead?" 

Ingrid nods "Well yeah, its a joke. Like he's dead inside." Nine just listen some and would say "Right." in a short tone. The two continued their work and serving the patrons of the Tavern, though Ingrid gave some thought for Nine to think about now.
