Ustulation

So somehow he'd managed to torture himself with the way things got organized. How this had happened, he wasn't sure, considering he'd been aware of what was scheduled for today but somehow this had happened. A good tip about certain mafia movements from the Fox had somehow led to the usual heavy flirting and teasing between the two of them. How this had led to the mention of a late night rooftop pool, he wasn't even sure at this point, all he knew was that she had that teasing smile on her face when he'd heard a 'See you there tomorrow then' and then of course she was gone.

Now this normally wouldn't be an issue, and he'd spend the day looking forward to this, she didn't like swimsuits after all. Except...distracting day dreams on their own were one thing. Add them with this day time engagement he'd had scheduled for a while, that he /knew/ he had to go to today and...torture.

Victoria's secret swimsuit show. Small, rather exclusive gathering, and being one of the younger business attendees...the flirty looks his way.

And during all that he'd have to spend all his energy thinking of the most unsexy thoughts ever. Otherwise how could any guy stand it?

Making things worse, one Maria to laugh at him and make this so much worse.

Ugh.

	He would've glared at her but that'd be like conceding victory and if there was one thing he'd inherited from his parents it was stubbornness. So throughout the whole thing he very pointedly did not acknowledge Maria's smirking. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Maria just smirked more and watched the show. Thomas was more entertaining than the show. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Probably because he was trying to not think of those swimsuits on a certain blonde instead and them coming off. While also remembering to scout out ones to win the bet with. Multitasking that wasn't going to work. Ugh he hated this situation. And he'd be much the same for the rest of the show. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well that was entertaining," Maria smirked when the show was over. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm sure it was," he deadpanned back at her in a whisper. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Time to go get you some dates," Maria said with a grin and headed toward backstage. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Impatient and running into things, ugh, typical. But there was no way he was going to let her get a head-start on him so off he went. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Maria practically bounced as she made her way over to some of the models. She smiled and started talking to them. After a few moments she turned and pointed to Thomas. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He couldn't go bouncing right in to chat up the models because it'd look too sleazy really, since he was doing it for himself and all. Maria would get a pass for that because well...girl and not doing it for her own interest. At least on the surface. So Thomas first goes to talk to one of the organizers backstage, polite chit chat, thanking for an invite, complimenting on the show, the usual thing. He very pointedly did not look at Maria when she pointed at him across the room.

Only when that was done was he free to shoot a charming smile at a model who'd wandered over. Known relation to the richest man in the city, height, a charming smile and the ability to actually maintain eye contact with hot women in bikinis (all those years of working with women in spandex were good for something) all gave him a good start and the rest wasn't all that difficult, he'd had to do this at enough parties and for enough covers after all. He had a feeling he'd have to clear up some misconceptions Maria might cause though.

So he'd be there for the next bit, talking to a group of models, grinning, laughing along and flirting. It was easy enough to do so, and he'd just completely ignore Maria for the rest of this so she didn't throw him off.

	Maria was busy getting dates for Thomas. So far every model she had spoken to had agreed to go on a date with him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2013-06-26 09:06 pm UTC (link)
	A fact that he'd argue had more to do with him and less her. Okay, actually the Wayne association should get more credit too. That worked. And after all that was over, he'd meet her by the car for the ride back. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-06-26 09:31 pm UTC (link)
	"So?" she asked when she saw him. There was a smirk on her face. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He smirked back and got in the car, because they had permission to take the nicest cars out for public events, and he liked to take advantage and call driving priveleges. When she was in he'd give her a wicked smirk. "I've got a date lined up for every official event or charity or auction that has been announced for the rest of the year. And numbers for any that pop up."

	"I got you dates for every Friday night until the end of the year," Maria said with a smirk. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"There are hardly enough models in that show for that," he shot back. "And is this some ploy to get me a playboy reputation?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-06-27 12:43 am UTC (link)
	Maria smiled. "No, but we didn't say anything about the women in the audience being off limits. I think that means I win." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2013-06-27 12:58 am UTC (link)
	"Most would say I won out here," he smiled and rolled his eyes. "Again, this is going to get me a terrible reputation." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-06-27 01:02 am UTC (link)
	"No, I won. I got you more dates," Maria said. "You poor baby. Such a hard life it'll be for you." She pinched his cheek and climbed into the car. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2013-06-27 03:15 am UTC (link)
	"I mean most wouldn't consider dates with models a loss for me even if you did get more," he rolled his eyes again before frowning at her for the cheek pinching. "The playboy with Wayne money all over again. Is this related to your Batman nagging?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-06-27 05:58 pm UTC (link)
	"Well you owe me a night of patrol," Maria said. "No, but now that you brought that up." She smiled at him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2013-06-27 11:30 pm UTC (link)
	"If I don't have a date that night," he pointed out just to tease her. Then came the unamused frown in response to her smile. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-06-27 11:46 pm UTC (link)
	"What? I think it's well past time." Maria smirked. He should take up the cowl. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2013-06-28 12:50 am UTC (link)
	"Like you should talk, we've determined I have more dating experience than you." He started the car and pulled them out. He knew what she actually meant by the statement but no reason he wasn't going to be difficult like always. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
