She seemed startled when he'd spoken to her. But she came to the car window and leaned down. He gave her a friendly smile and for a wonder, got one in return. Her face half-lit by the street lights, shadows and luminescence playing across it as she shifted and smiled; hair sparkling with snow-flake dew; she looked utterly beautiful. Just....something. His smile lingered.
She spoke, answering his question as to whether she'd walk home in this snow. “That was before the snow. Now? Now I think I’ll take you up on that offer.”
Again, he was impressed by her. From everything he'd seen of her, she was independent and assertive, completely unapologetic and unyielding. She had broken into that building, after all, in order to help animals that she felt needed it. She was tough. But she wasn't needlessly stubborn. She didn't reject help when it was offered.
But.......she was still herself. Her snarky nature couldn't hide. “How about I ride up front this time? Hmm?”
She didn't wait for an answer. Not that he'd have made her sit in the back if course. But she had to make sure all the same. She was funny. Such a brat, he thought, but not in a bad way. Yeah, Vanya liked her. She jumped in the passenger seat and slammed the door. And then, “I think I’ve seen enough of your back seat for one night.”
And there it was. He laughed at both the reference to her earlier ride as well as the innuendo.
"Yeah, I guess I should buy you breakfast since you enjoyed your time in the back seat."
He gave her a grin and winked at her. Pulling away, he asked, "So where can I take you?"
