Rating: Probably SFW, will update if changes
Summary: Ginger received a letter from her mom today, going on and on about her dad's newest girlfriend. She doesn't really want to know these things, ever. Her mom's also on a new list of things Ginger needs to find in a husband. As if. Parents, who needs them?


Ginger didn't ever try to read and walk at the same time. She was pretty clued in to the fact that, well, it never did work out for her. So she'd taken up residence on one of the benches in front of Sonnier's dorm to try once again to muddle through the three page letter of hell her mother had written. It didn't take a genius to tell the woman had been smashed, the way all the lines curved down toward the end and the barely legible scribble.

"Ug," she scoffed folding them up again after giving up. She'd give it to Lexie, and see if he could understand it. Not that he'd probably want to read it, it might endanger his Loner Stoner look or something.

"Haha, Loner Stoner. Haha." She snorted a little as she laughed. It was, to her, probably the funniest thing she'd thought up all day. She could almost make it a sing-song sort of phrase that would drive Lexie nuts if she were to stand at his door saying it. Ah...

Sometimes it was good to have brothers.

Immediately after his last class, Gael had gone back to his room to change into his Quodpot clothes and grab his broom and headed on down to the Quodpot field to unwind. He put himself through some drills, pushing himself to fly faster and faster, dodging invisible obstacles. It was the first time in a while that he'd exercised in order to clear his mind.

After some time he finally landed and put his things away and headed back for his dorm. Belatedly, he realized he should have brought a change of clothes and used the Quodpot locker rooms. Oh well, it wasn't like he was going to bump into anyone...

However, as he approached his dorm, he could see someone sitting outside. At least he wasn't horrible smelling, or really covered in much sweat at all. He walked over to her.

"Are you waiting for someone?"

"Huh?" Ginger looked up and blinked at Gael a moment, unsure as to why he was talking to her at first. Didn't he like know she was waaay out of his league, and a LaLaurie cheerleader? It didn't matter that he was kinda cute, either.

But then she glanced down at the letter in her hands again, before looking up.

"Uh, no...like I was just reading." She said, tilting her head to the side. "You are the captain for Sonnier, right? Like...what's her name's boyfriend or something? Addy-lame?"

Gael raised an eyebrow at the nickname. He couldn't really blame her about the questions, though. It wasn't his fault he and Leon were identical twins and people who didn't know them that well had a hard time telling them apart. He gave her a pleasant smile.

"I'm the captain for Sonnier, but Adelaide's not my girlfriend. She's Leon's." He adjusted his equipment bag on his shoulder. "I didn't mean to interrupt your reading, though. I'm sorry. I'll let you get back to it, then..." And with that he made to head into the dorm.

She blinked at him, unsure what he was talking about until it occurred to her- "you're like a twin? That is so cool. That means that like there are two of you and like everything."

Tucking the letter away she got up and started to follow him. "I'm Ginger. I'm one of the Lalaurie cheerleaders. You've probably seen me around, cos like...I know everyone seems to like already know me and everything." She paused again, stepping in front of him. "So..Are you dating anyone like...important?"

Gael glanced over at her, slowing his walk a little. "Yeah, something like that." He smiled a little more, half in amusement at her.

"I should've guess. You seemed kind of familiar, though I knew you weren't in my house. I'm Gael, the twin not dating your captain." He stopped when she moved in front of him, looking slightly up at her. "Not exactly?"

So this one was single, and not dating Addylame. That made him even cuter, and hadn't sure heard something about Addylame going to Paris with her boyfriend over Christmas?

"So...like, did you go to Paris for Christmas too? Cos I totally heard the other you did, and I was like...curious. What's Paris like?" She figured this one would be easy. He was into sports, which meant he had to have a rad body, he was in Sonnier so he was totally smart, and if he was rich? Then there wasn't anything to keep him from being the next Ginger McAvery play thing.

"Yeah, I went to France for the holiday." What was it like? For him it was irritating and filled with family that didn't leave him alone for more than two seconds at a time with their constant attempts at match-making with pureblood French witches.

He shrugged. "It's nice. Fancy, rich, romantic, and all that. The people there are a bunch of snobs, though. They don't really talk to you unless you speak French."
mylollipop From: [info]mylollipop Date: January 12th, 2011 02:12 am (UTC) (Link)
"Why did you guys even do to France if you like, don't even like it?" And why couldn't she have gone? France was one of the fashion meccas, and she'd have given her left arm to go.

"You should take me the next time you go. Maybe I could help make it better, yeah?" She reached out and tip-toed two of her fingers across Gael's chest. "I'm...pretty good at making things more fun, you know."
mustbecharming From: [info]mustbecharming Date: January 12th, 2011 02:29 am (UTC) (Link)
"Because my family is there. Besides, France itself isn't horrible." He hadn't really wanted to go. But he never had a choice.

Gael raised an eyebrow at her blatant come on. He wasn't entirely sure how to take it. It wasn't often he was hit on, especially so transparently. "I'm sure you are. ...You sure you don't just want a free shopping trip?" Belatedly he realized he'd probably get a slap for that, but he'd been kind of off kilter the last few days.
mylollipop From: [info]mylollipop Date: January 12th, 2011 02:36 am (UTC) (Link)
"Oh? That's pretty cool. I'm just from California. Nothing fancy about the OC, right? Its no France, anyway."

But then he asked if she just wanted to go shopping and her fingers stopped dead. Really? She was offering to have sex with him and he was going to say that? What was he, mental and gay? "You aren't like, into guys are you? Cos...I already have a best gay friend."

Well, it was pretty clear what she was getting at there.
mustbecharming From: [info]mustbecharming Date: January 12th, 2011 03:20 am (UTC) (Link)
"Depends on who you ask, I guess. France has the French, so... Some might prefer California."

Gael stared at her blankly for a moment. Is that what people thought? Did people think he was gay? And once word got out about... Not that he cared really that-- but he didn't want people to think something about him that wasn't true.

Acting on an impulse, he dropped his bag and reached up, cupping Ginger's face with both hands and guiding it down to his own, pressing his lips to hers in a firm kiss.

"Oh, do you think so?" She smirked at the idea, but when she was ready to say something else his hands were around her face, and she was kissing him back in the blink of an eye. Wow, Not-Leon was a lot more forward than she thought he'd be!

And not that bad of a kisser.

After a moment she pulled away and blinked at him before smiling. "So, you want to take me to dinner this weekend? After the game. I'll dress pretty for you, okay?" She paused again, tilting her head to the side. "We'll have fun."
mustbecharming From: [info]mustbecharming Date: January 12th, 2011 03:59 am (UTC) (Link)
Gael smirked at her suggestion. Alright, he could play this game. After all, everyone needed a little fun sometimes. And she did seem like she knew how to have some fun... And he really did need a distraction in his life. "Sure, why not? You pick a restaurant and I'll make a reservation there."

"The Red Fish Grill, then. It's down on Bourbon." She smiled at him, leaning in despite the way he smell of sweat. "You really are so sweet, you know that?"

She pressed her lips to his for a quick kiss, before stepping back and smiling at him brightly. Oh, Lexie would be so mad if he could see this right now. "Oh, before I forget....here's my number. Text me." She pulled out a scented piece of paper from a small tablet and jotted her number down. Then she kissed it before handing it over to Gael with a smile.
mustbecharming From: [info]mustbecharming Date: January 13th, 2011 06:25 am (UTC) (Link)
"Alright then, it's a date." He gave her a half smile in return. "Yeah, so I've been told."

When she kissed him, he responded in kind before continuing to grin back at her. "Would probably help to have." He accepted the paper from her, shaking his head a little as he looked down at it, his grin getting wider. He wasn't sure what he was thinking, but why the hell not. "I'll text you later so you have mine, too." He smiled again.

"Good." She grinned, "now I think, like, someone here needs a shower."

Stepping away she twittled her fingers at Gael. "I'll be waiting for that text. But I have to go now...Cheerleading practice and all."
