The roof of the Queens Lodging House. You can see pretty far from here. And sometimes some of the kids like to lie up here and find pictures in the clouds, or look at the few stars that can be seen.

Flanna had managed to slip into the lodging house without seeing him but the whole thing made her feel uneasy. She didn't feel comfortable in Queens anymore. Sitting with her back on the Roof, she leaned against the edge, looking into the sky as clouds past by, her green eyes searching for some calm in the bright blue above her.
She didn't regret what happened. Better things had come of it.

"Flanna!" Someone called from the street. Razor stood there, hands in his pockets, wearing a shirt whose sleeves had been cut off at the shoulders. He was smirking up at her, eyes glinting.

Flanna looked down hearing her name called, not able to keep the bright smile from spreading across her face. "...hey Razor! Come on up." She smirked, pointing at the fire escape. "...what you doing in Queens?"
She couldn't help but notice that her heart lept a bit and her mood brightened. He had an amazing affect on her, she wouldn't deny it.

"Being a rebel, o' course." he answered as he quickly moved up the fire escape. "What else?" He leaned next to her, brushing his fingers through his hair. "How's it goin?" He asked, a grin on his face.

Flanna shivered with pleasure as his fingers touched her hair--one of her favorite things. She cursed inwardly. Damn him. Normally she would have flinched and moved away defensively--but now with him. He baffled her.
"...I dunno." Her face darkened as she thought, her emerald eyes clouding over. "...after...all that has happened, I just don't feel comfortable here in Queens any longer." She rubbed her arm absentmindedly.
She shook herself after a moment, a soft smile spreading across her face. "Sorry. I'm alright, really." She tilted her head, looking up into his blue eyes. "So just being a Rebel, eh?"

He smirked, winking. "Eh.....i wanted to see ya too, truth be told." He brushed a strand of hair from her face, "but as long as you're sure you're okay, i think i can keep myself from busting a few heads in."
He listened to her feelings and looked out over the roof, towards the sky. He was silent for a while, before he said, in a soft voice. "Come with me, to Brooks. Stay with me."

Flanna's eyes widened, her jaw dropped. "...Excuse me?" She stood and looked up at him, putting her hands on each of his arms. "...do you really mean that?"
She bit her lip. This would be a big step for her, but she knew that she would be safe with him. But she was still a bit amazed that he would even want her around that much.

He looked down at her, the smirk falling away from his face as he pulled her gently to him by her shirt, putting their lips together gently. After a moment or two, he pulled back, looking deep into her eyes. "...I meant it."

Flanna's eyes widened as he pulled her foward, pressing his lips to hers. She normally would have pushed away, but instead melted into it, relishing in the feeling. This was real. This wasn't something that was fleeting.
"..I..." She blushed, her freckles standing out in relief but her eyes never once leaving his. "...yes, I will stay with you." She smiled brightly, slipping her arms around his waist, hugging him, listening to his heart as her own heart thudded quickly in her chest.

He ran his hand down her back, rubbing it as he kissed the top of her head softly. "Thank you." He murmurred. He hadn't headed to Queens with the desire to take her back with him, but he found he wanted to. More then anything.
He also realized something important, and very scary. He would go up against his brother and Spot for this girl...him, the second half of the Brooklyn Body Guards. He would go against his leader for Flanna to stay by his side. And it was a feeling he had never had before.

Flanna looked up, reaching a hand up to gently caress Razor's face, a soft smile spreading across her face. "...why do you thank me? I'm the one who should thank you...you are what I never imagined existed."
Her face clouded a moment, as she realized the implications. "...Spot isn't going to like this." She rubbed her thumb over his cheek. "It's one thing for you to bring in a Queens kid...but I did get in a fight with him." She chuckled softly. "and he might worry about you getting soft."
She paused. "..I really dont want to get you in trouble. I'm not worth it." She meant it. While she knew Razor could more than well take care of himself, she had a feeling of wanting to make sure he was safe and happy more than anything. She would go against the devil himself to stay with Razor, a feeling she had never felt for anyone but her parents before. Spot was one thing. His brother was another.

"I never thought anyone would look past what they saw." He nuzzled her hand lightly. "and you did. It was a rush, Flanna, a pleasant one."
He listened to what she had to say, and his face clouded over. He needed to say it, what he was feeling, but he didn't quite know what trouble it might bring. "...Im not going to let Spot take this away from us. If he has a problem with it...he can take it up with me. Im not going to let him say no, because no is not a suitable answer." He raised his hands to her face and cupped it gently, "And you are worth it. Worth a trip to Hell, worth my eternal soul, worth everything i have, Flanna."

Flanna shook her head gently, leaning up to kiss him gently, on her tiptoes. "...No."
She pulled his face close to hers, so that he would be on her level. "...I'm with you every step of the way, Larkin. If anyone has a problem with us, then we will deal with it. Not just a you, or a me...an us." She was taking a huge leap, but surprisingly, she wasn't scared. She knew that she finally had someone else. And she was never going to let that go.
"Besides..I heard the weather in Hell is wonderful this time of year.." She chuckled softly.

"Its a cheap fare, too." He joked along with her, smiling. "...And are you sure i would allow this....us thing? How do you know i wont want to do it on my own?" He wouldn't, of course, but it was a choice he might have to make if things got too serious.
