"I thought I was clear about avoiding you tonight." The redhead's tone a little wary as she turns to face the raven, her fingers fiddling with the small strap of her handbag as her eyes scan their surroundings, making sure nobody else is around before she finally smiles up at the doctor. 

Her heart thumping inside her chest as she takes in his more formal appearance, just barely suppressing the urge to reach out and touch his disorderly hair, she isn't too sure why she likes to maul this man so much but perhaps doing so here would be a bad idea.

Of course he makes resisting the urge even harder when he leans in closer to her face, a smug smile spreading across his lips as his voice lowers into a discreet murmur. "And I thought I was clear about taking my chances."

A light pinkish hue dusting Kyo's cheeks immediately at that as she pouts up at the raven, her gaze boring into his own, though her stare doesn't seem to have nearly as much effect on him as his does on her. 

Is he insane?

"And you'll take your chances tonight, will you? Best be warned, pa isn't in a very merciful mood." A playful mockery lacing Kyo's voice as she speaks, though her small bite only appears to interest Law more. 

"Is that why you're hiding out here?" 

"Mmh...that and because I'm driving Lotte home later so I can't exactly leave." Those words notably making his smirk widen, a flicker of intrigue in his eyes and already, Kyo knows what he's thinking. "No matter how amusing you might find it." 

"I didn't say anything, Kyo-ya." Smugness still riddling his accent whilst his hand raises, his thumb gently rolling over the small piercing through her eyebrow, curiosity filling his gaze.

"You didn't have to, your face said plenty." She doesn't even realize how she lightly leans her head into his touch, a thoughtful pout etching into her features nonetheless as her brow quirks. "What are you doing?" 

"Wondering when you got this done." No hesitation in his tone whatsoever as his fingers finally abandon the metal, his deft fingers instead running down her cheek as his gaze returns to hers. "It looks quite recent."

Why does he care?  Is there something wrong with it?

"Almost two months ago now, I've always wanted an eyebrow piercing." Her response gaining a small hum, her attention shifting to ensure nobody is around still before returning to Law once again, a tiny smirk tugging on her lips. "Are you just looking for reasons to touch my face, Trafalgar?"

"It's no different to what you do." And just like that, the tables are turned. 

Her face heating up as a small huff escapes her lips, a sulky expression taking over her features as the raven lightly brushing her nose with his own, his embrace causing her heart to flutter like mad though she tries to remain indifferent. 

"I touch your hands, not your fa--mgh!" Her argument falling silent when he captures her lips with his own, her brows knitting together irritably but she still can't help returning the kiss, her eyes soon falling closed as her fingers reach into his hair, finally getting the opportunity to feel his wild locks herself.

Not that she would admit it aloud but she has been dying to touch his hair ever since she saw him without his hat, her digits combing through his locks and fingertips massaging his scalp, a feeling that he seems to enjoy judging by how he vaguely smiles into the kiss.

Apart of her almost considers deepen the liplock a little but she isn't too sure how and he doesn't seem to want to either, which is probably a good thing in these circumstances, Kyo finally breaking away upon reminding herself of the risks at hand, a deep blush plastered across her face as a sudden voice catches her ears.

"I hope I'm not interrupting anything here."

Dread hitting the girl like a train as her gaze shifts toward the feminine tone, though she immediately relaxes when her orbs only land on Lotte, the brunette harbouring a cheeky grin as her eyes flicker up to Law, earning herself a slight glare from him in return.

"You are interrupting, as it happens, Lot-ya." The raven's pitch calm and crisp as usual although his words don't seem to bother his cousin in the slightest, the brunette merely scoffing at him while the redhead discreetly pulls away from his embrace.

"What is it, Lotte?" Kyo's tone much softer than Law's possibly due to nerves while she awkwardly smooths-down her dress, trying to appear as indifferent as possible despite the dark blush on her face.

"I need a ride, if you're not too busy, that is." Well, it is her job for the night so she can't begrudge Lotte for that, although she can't help the slight raise of her brow as a low hum rumbles in her throat. 

"Already?" It must only be around 7:30pm, sure she wanted to leave early herself but she hadn't expected it from the brunette since she seemed like she was having a good time.

"Yep, Kid invited me to watch a race!" Well, that explains it.

"What kind of race would be on at this hour?"

"Eustass-ya is an illegal racer." Law quietly informs, his eyes narrowing and brows kitting together as he frowns down at his cousin, a mildly threatening glare in his orbs as irritation practically oozes from his body. "Why do you insist on befriending people like him?"

"Oh, we're a little more than friends." Mockery essentially glazing Lotte's voice as she feigns an innocent smile, watching in amusement as Law merely rolls his eyes. "Not that I was speaking to you."

"I'll take you but I can't stick around." Kyo finally murmurs while reaching into her handbag and grabbing her keys, a part of her wishes she could be this bold, leaving events to hang out with whoever she likes but it would get her into no ends of trouble.

Though, it supposedly shouldn't be any more different than leaving an event to go home, surely.

"You can come too, Law." Lotte chimes once again, drawing her cousin's annoyed gaze once again. "That way you can continue your little rendezvous afterward."

"Shut up, Lot-ya!"

I wonder if they argued this much as children...
