After the Party
Anya entered the luxury suite her family always had reserved at the Four Seasons and went straight for the bar. She grabbed a glass and a bottle of vodka. She poured herself some and downed it one gulp. Her hands were shaking and she poured herself another glass and downed that one as well.

He eyes her curiously. He hadn't been looking at this like a competition, since he knows quite well that she's aware he both works out more, and has the Rogers and formula enhanced genes. He can move faster and run further, and he was just intending to work up a sweat. Apparently, just because he's willing to concede she's probably a better driver, she's not up for conceding anything.

Or maybe she wants to lose, he realizes, after a few more moments.

"So we're betting on footraces now?"

	"I'm just keeping up," she said innocently enough. "If you want to make it a competition we could." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	treadlightly 2011-11-08 12:41 am UTC (link)
	He turns up his own dial a little. "Uh huh. Are you always this competitive? Because I'm not sure this is the fairest competition, and wouldn't want to take advantage of you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It's in the blood," she said and kept up to him. "I don't mind." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	treadlightly 2011-11-08 12:57 am UTC (link)
	He grins. "I have this feeling that hanging out with you a lot gets interesting very quickly. So if the race to the door was a competition, and this is just you keeping up, how do I know when we're betting?" he teases. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Of course it does. I am a /Stark/," she said with a grin. "Oh you'll know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	treadlightly 2011-11-08 01:07 am UTC (link)
	"I didn't know this time. So we're betting when you win, and not when you're losing?" he teases. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If you want to bet we can. Name the conditions." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	treadlightly 2011-11-08 01:14 am UTC (link)
	He chuckles. "Not in the habit of making unfair bets. e can just run. If you want to compete, and name stakes, I'll take you up on it though. Otherwise, we can just run." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Whatever you want, Mr. Rogers," she said and gave him a wink. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	treadlightly 2011-11-08 02:04 am UTC (link)
	He chuckles, peeling his shirt off and draping it over the handlebar of the treadmill, then dials up the speed several clicks. "I'll keep that in mind, Miss Stark. You tell me when we're betting, and what you want if you win, we'll go from there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anya stared at the bare chest and admired the well defined muscles. "Oh never mind. I think I just won." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	treadlightly 2011-11-08 06:12 pm UTC (link)
	He chuckles, flexing for her a little without breaking stride. "Happy to help. But I think you just gave me an idea for my side of a bet sometime... when we're in a facility that we can lock. I doubt this one would be happy with you working out topless." he teases. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2011-11-08 11:04 pm UTC (link)
	Anya slowed and eventually stopped. "Oh? You don't need to win a bet to get me topless." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He slows down a touch, the better to be able to talk while running, but demonstrates the Rogers' endurance adequately, barely breathing hard while moving at a good jog.

"Tell you what, gorgeous... I love the flirting... and that's really tempting. But relationships that start right after a lot of trauma don't tend to do well. Let's try a couple of dates, getting to know each other, some massages and movies... and I'll try to be good. If we get through three dates, and sharing a room through this trip and back, and maybe a little vacation time without getting on each others' nerves... I'll take you up on that and give you a full body massage for the trouble, patience, and letting me have some time to do things the right way instead of rushing in?"

	"Sure," she said and then paused to let his words sink in. "But you do realize that it's only skin? We don't need to be in a relationship for me to flash you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He grins. "This is very true. Far be it from me to object. And, for that matter, I've promised you massages anyway. If you just happened to lack some clothing under the towel, I'm sure I'd survive... well, that, and I believe if I win one of these bets, when you decide we're betting, we're wagering kisses against spankings... so... yeah, a few dates to get serious. But we can have some fun in the meanwhile, if you're that set on ending up topless." he replies with a wink.

Yeah, it may make the week and three dates a little more challenging - but he can live with that.

	"We'll see how things go," she said. "Speaking of going. I'm going to go take a shower. Then you can and we can swing by the mansion before we head to the airport." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	treadlightly 2011-11-09 12:27 am UTC (link)
	He nods. "Sounds good. I'll finish a bit of a warm up workout while you do that, and you can let me know when the shower is free." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2011-11-09 01:24 am UTC (link)
	"Want to wash my back?" she teased. "Will do." With that she headed for their suite and the shower. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	treadlightly 2011-11-09 01:26 am UTC (link)
	He grins. "Talk to me after the third date, if all is still going well. Then the answer will probably be yes." he answers as she heads out. (Reply to this)(Parent)
