Almost Normal Mansion on Phoenix Way, Sunday Morning

It had been way too long since Mike had last done that.

Not the sex, obviously. But taking a girl home with him the same evening he'd met her for the first time. For all the angst he'd had over the last while about weddings and people settling down, he had to admit his old ways also had some merit.

Waking up right now? Naked and not alone? He felt pretty good, yeah.

[ooc: For the girl!]

It'd been a while since Brooke had done this, too, but the next morning stuff was something she definitely remembered, because it meant gauging how this was going to go and whether she should leave right away or not. So she opened her eyes and looked over to see if he was up yet. That was step one.

He was.

But at least for his part, he looked relaxed. He gave her a nod and an easy (if somewhat sleepy) smile. "Hey."

Well, sneaking out wouldn't be happening then. "Morning," she greeted him. "Great bed."

"Thanks. Built it myself." No really, he had. That was why it was great. He rubbed a hand over his eyes and stretched out a little. "Gotta admit, it's much nicer with company."
gobrookeyourself: (flirty)

[personal profile] gobrookeyourself 2015-09-06 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
"Especially when the company is this hot," Brooke said, modestly.
newroutines: ([pos] Lol okay.)

Mike chuckled. Hey, he had a definite thing for confident women. He smirked at her, lazily rolling onto his side and propping his head up with one arm. "True," he agreed. "Very true. I'd go further than that and say I'm honored to have you here."

He hadn't dropped the flattery when she'd agreed to go home with him, and he wasn't about to drop it now. It was how he was.

"Finally, a guy who shows his appreciation for what I do," Brooke said, only half joking. Seriously, guys usually sucked. Especially the ones she found, with a couple notable exceptions.
newroutines: ([pos] Good stuff.)

"You say that like we're a rarity," he replied, raising one eyebrow. "You deserve better."

"Yes, I do," she said, since it'd taken her a long time to realize that and yes. "Don't suppose there's a double of you in New York."
newroutines: ([pos] Heh.)

He shrugged a shoulder, the one not currently against the bed. "Never made it that far north, myself, but hey, there could be."
gobrookeyourself: (just did something naughty)

[personal profile] gobrookeyourself 2015-09-06 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
She rolled over to face him. "Now I have a mission. See what you've done?"
newroutines: ([pos] Good stuff.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2015-09-06 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
"My very best to make sure you go home happy and satisfied?" he offered.
gobrookeyourself: (the closeup flirt)

[personal profile] gobrookeyourself 2015-09-06 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"I mean... I could be happier and more satisfied," Brooke pointed out.
newroutines: ([pos] Heh.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2015-09-06 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Mike snickered. "Oh, my bad," he said. "I've really only done my best you were happy and satisfied through the night. This morning is, of course, a whole new quota of happiness and satisfaction."

He nodded. Very seriously, of course.

"Which I will be more than glad to provide."
gobrookeyourself: (laying down makeout)

[personal profile] gobrookeyourself 2015-09-06 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm so glad you get me," Brooke said, leaning in to kiss him.
newroutines: ([pos] Good stuff.)

[personal profile] newroutines 2015-09-07 09:32 am (UTC)(link)
Which Mike took as his cue to try and gather her up close. Again.

"Mm-hmm." A very convenient thing to say when you were kissing someone. "Feel free to stick around to be understood for as long as you like."

He was absolutely cool with spending his morning trying to make her reconsider New York.
