darker_londonThey had managed to leave the Cauldren without any further interaction with Marcel. Unsurprisingly, he had not followed them out onto the street. To start with, Renee had cradled Kait in her arms, ensuring that the other girl was alright after her digestive pyrotechnics. After a while, Kait pulled away from Renee, smiling to show that everything really was alright.
"I am capable of standing on my own two feet," Kait said with a rueful smile, still holding on to Renee's hand. She didn't think they had really let go for more than the few moments when Kait had run out of the shop since Renee had grabbed her hand for support while in front of Marcel. "But thank you. I honestly don't know what I would have done without you back there."
Together they walked for a way, holding hands and smiling at one another every so often. To anyone who had used to know them, it would have very much appeared that the ex girlfriends were indeed still an item.
"So, back to my place then?" Kait asked, a little unsure. The last time there had been anything magical happening around them, it had been the other way with Kait thinking that Renee was over using and ending in Renee leaving Kait's home.

Joanne was half a block behind the couple, trying to figure out if she knew them from the back. The taller might be Renee- she knew she was in London, at least- and Renee never went anywhere without Kait, and, well, it looked like it might be Kait. Maybe-Renee flicked her hair over her shoulder, and Joanne saw her in profile. Yep, that was her. She picked up the pace till she was just behind them. "Hello!" she chirped.

Renee was not yet ready to trust that Kait was well enough to be left on her own. She had never been much of a potions girl, but at the moment, she wasn't willing to trust anything that came from Marcel.
"Perhaps that would very much be for the best-"
"Hello!"
What in the world...?
Renee turned to face the somewhat familiar voice, to be greeted by a very friendly face from the past.
"Libby!" she smiled, despite the dark situation she had caught them in. "Mon dieu, who would have thought we should run into each other here!" She quickly embraced the girl and kissed her cheek, before catching herself and stepping back. She didn't want to be too familiar if it would make Libby uncomfortable after so long... Renee was just feeling particularly physically affectionate after taking care of Kait.

Kait turned around with a smile on her face. "London is clearly the place to move to this year," she said, also taking a step forward to hug the other girl. "And how have you been? Gosh, I haven't seen you since graduation. Are you going to school here? Or holidaying? We simply must catch up."
And it was. It had been all too often that Kait had felt a bit of an outsider in this city after her life in France. Though slowly, as friends from there moved to here, she began to feel more at ease as she had in school the year before.

Joanne beamed and hugged back, ooh, Renee's breasts had grown. She forced herself not to blush and grinned at them. "I know, it's been ages! You two look great, still the cutest couple on the block."

"Wrong? No, nothing." Kait smiled reassuringly, and held out her free arm to link with Libby's, if she so wished. "Look, we were about to head back to my place, but if you'd like, we can head to a cafe or something for a beverage... That is, if you don't have anything else planned?" she added.

"Sure, lets go get sugared up on mochas." Joanne linked her arm with Kait's. This was a relief, if she was going to a cafe she wouldn't have to go home for at least another hour and maybe by that time Damien would've gone out.

Renee tensed a little as Libby made the "cute couple" comment, but Kait handled the situation almost effortlessly. She felt a mild pang of jealousy as Kait interlinked her arm with Libby's, but really, it was nothing. It was more that she had been expecting to have Kait to herself this evening than anything... not that seeing Libby was an unwelcome experience. It was good to have another friendly face about.
"You always did love your sugar," Renee smiled, falling into step beside them. "Are you going to be staying in London for long? I would love to be able to spend time with you again."

"Dante's it is then," Kait said happily. The cafe was also a good idea for the basic reason that after the vomitting, she actually had very little to nothing at all in her stomach at present; something her body was actively reminding her of as she thought it. Pasting a smile on her face, she added, "Wow, it has been a long time since we were last there," to Renee.

"Well, things have been... hectic," Renee nodded. That was certainly one word for it.
"You should enjoy Dante's, Libby," she smiled. "They often have live jazz there... you could probably get a gig if you wanted to. I used to read poetry there all the time."

"Whatever happened to that?" Kait mused aloud. It was strange, as though in talking to someone they had both known in France, they had begun to breach the communication gap that had grown between them over the last months. Not without reason, of course, but it was nice to have something going easier for a change. "Oh, I suppose those hectic things getting in the way, huh?"

Renee chuckled. "Yes... that is precisely what it was. But that is all behind us now, oui?"
Goddess, she hoped it was all behind them. If need be, she would tell Kait what Marcel had done to her... but she really didn't want to have to talk about it again after telling Deirdre. In the end, she had even avoided telling Ry, though she had been about to.

"I'm living here now. Well, technically I always have, and the time in France was a kind of... hiatus. Father didn't want to hang around here after Mum died," Joanne shook her hand, dismissing the matter. "Which is all irrellivent, really. I'd love to play something live at Dante's but Father would never let me, not at a bar." She sighed.

Kait smiled at Libby's words. She knew that feeling. Every year at her mother's birthday, her father went out of his way to do... something distracty. Heck, Kait had never even known the woman, bar what her father had to say. Actually, even as Libby spoke, Kait remembered why they had used to get along so well; their home life was very similar in many ways.
They turned into Dantes and found a table for the three of them. This time of day, it was not so busy for them. Kait blinked when she looked at the wall clock. Was it really still that early in the afternoon? But... it felt like ages had passed!
"Can I buy a bowl of chips that everyone will dig into?" Kait asked hopefully, waving a waiter over.

Just being at Dante's, it was so tempting to let the word absinthe roll off her tongue. But this early in the day, it probably wasn't such a good idea. Besides, it wouldn't do to be drinking if Libby and Kait were tending towards non-alcoholic beverages.
"I'll have a chocolate milkshake," she smiled. "With malt." No doubt it would have her bouncing off the walls, but that was okay. Hell, with present company, it was probably expected.
"I mean really," Renee grinned, "Just look at the clintele." She indicated herself and the other two girls at the table. "Why would you ever wish to play here?"

Kait was sitting like an idiot with a half smile on her face as she rested her chin on the palm of her hand.
"Oh! Just a hot chocolate for me today, thanks," Kait said to the waiter. "And could we have a bowl of chips brought up for the table?"

Renee at Kait and reached out under the table to stroke her leg lightly. It was wonderful to see the girl so chirpy, especially after the experience they had just endured with Marcel. It was amazing how much just a small amount of time spent with good friends could help everything seem better...
