He stared down at the table-top for a long moment, until someone tapped his shoulder and he turned, to see the guy he had taken the drink from.
"That's mine, kid." The other slurred, his gaze hard. "Give it back."

Fancy took the drink from Red and thrust it at the other guy. "Now Get lost..." she snapped. She turned back to the table and sat down on a stool. She knew better than any that Red wasn't supposed to fight and it stressed her greatly when she saw him being threatened even if it was only a little. She blinked down at the ring on her finger, so very surprised that it was there still.

Avalanche... kept quiet. He was going to let these to figure it out, but if either of them made a dash for the door he'd block their way. He'd made enough of a mess of things, and if there was anything he could do to help it was that. He had to keep them in the same room if it killed him. "You shoulda seen her... tellin' me that she was gettin' married... havin' a baby... I never seen Fancy so happy in my life," he said quietly, to... whoever was listening to him.

Fancy smiled down at the table. "I've never been so happy in my life..." she added quietly. She hung her heels on the side of the stool and took a sip of the water that had been placed in front of her. The bartender gave her a wink and a smile and was on his way. She smiled back, he knew, everyone knew. A single quiet tear dripped down her face and she smiled. It was a tear of happiness and relief, for the first time in a long time...

Red muttered something under his breath. His heart was in turmoil, and before he knew what he was doing, he was off his stool, pulling her into a hug. He couldn't do it, couldn't leave her. He was hopelessly in love, and even the ex-leader of Brooklyn couldn't stand up to that.

Fancy to, was shocked. She held him tightly, never letting him go again. "I'm so sorry..." she breathed. She lay her head on his chest and breathed in his ever familiar 'Red' smell. "I didn't realize what i was doing..." she whispered to him.

"I know," He murmurred. "Im sorry love. I didn't mean...what i said." He curled an arm around her waist, face pressed to her neck.

She was shaking now. She gently kissed his hot cheek. "Shh... i know..." she whispered, holding him to her. "Red i know..." she didn't want to start crying again. She wouldn't, she would be strong this time. Standing there with him made Fancy realize how lucky she was. She leaned her head against his slightly and sighed, playing with his hair.

After a few minutes, he pulled back, running his fingers through his hair. "Give me a moment, love." He looked over at Avalanche. "Can i speak with you alone, for a moment?"

Fancy smiled at him and nodded, sitting back down and taking a sip of her water. She held her head in a hand and began tracing the grain of the wood with her finger tips...

"Ya not gonna kill me, are ya?" he said with a smile. He looked at Red and nodded slowly. "Yeah... sure," he said with a nod.

He grabbed his sleeve, guiding him out the door, and into the nearby alley just to the left of when you came out the door. He leaned against the wall, arms crossed.

"Havn't seen ya for a while, you've changed a bit Red," Avalanche said once they were in the ally. He was going to act like nothing was wrong, and nothing had happened, and who knows... maybe Red wouldn't kill him!

"A lot has happened." He raised an eyebrow, "Time changes people." He pushed off the wall, stepping a little closer. His eyes were hard, and he paused a mere step away from the other.
And held out his hand.

Avalanche stared Red right in the eye hiding his fear... and then he saw his hand. Avalanche knew better... he knew Red. He smiled and took him by the hand. "For a second there... I was afraid you was gonna slit my throat..." he said still a bit shaky, but he was rather proud of himself, he hadn't shown too much fear.
