Gypsy watched her. She was prettier when she was loosened up. "'Bout half. Still plenty." She leaned back on her elbows, tilting her head and crossing her leg over her knee. "So, you said you had to pretend a lot. What are you pretending?"

"I think the better question is what am I not pretending," Fire replied candidly, holding in another laugh. She took the bottle and drank from it once more before handing it back.
"Think about it," she continued, her eyes opening again to look over at the other girl, "don't we all pretend all the time anyway?"
She sat up straight and looked across at the other girl, her forehead wrinkling slightly as she studied her face. "I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but... your eyes are very striking. Has anyone ever told you that before?"

Gypsy was in mid swig when she as complimented. She arched a brow, swallowing and lowering the bottle before responding. "Maybe. But thanks." She leaned forward to tug at a piece of her hair. "Your hair's killer."

"Thanks," she replied softly, her cheeks turning a deep shade of red. She glanced over at the other girl's hand, biting lightly on her lower lip.
She closed her eyes slowly, her head already feeling heavy from the whiskey. "You know, you're not that bad.... for living here, that is," she teased.

Gypsy smirked, letting her fingers play with piece of Fire's hair. Confused, indeed. This chick dug chicks, that much was obvious now that she'd let her guard down. Gypsy...well, Gypsy wasn't really very discerning.
"You're not so bad yourself....for living here." She smirked, teasing right back. She was buzzed, but could tell Fire didn't hold her liquor as well as she did.

"Well, you can thank Jonathan for that," she quipped, trying to remain calm despite the fact that a relative stranger was playing with her hair.
She re-opened her eyes, finally realizing how close they really were. "How, ummm, how often do other people come up here?" she asked, suddenly thinking about the attic door and exactly how many people lived in the building.

She smirked. "Well, you're the only person who's come up here to bother me in three days, so..." She curved her mouth up into a smile, so she'd know she was only teasing. "Who's Jonathan?"

Fire reached for the bottle and took another swig. She needed another drink before even attempting to answer that question. "Jonathan is... Well, he's...." she stammered, trying to gather the words. For some reason,even while drunk, she just couldn't bring herself to say it without feeling at least a slight hint of disdain. "He's my boyfriend," she finally blurted out. "He insisted we move down here, I forget the reason why."

Gypsy snorted, eyebrows shooting up. "Your boyfriend?? Oh, honey, you really are pretending a whole lot." She tugged Fire's hair again, smirking, then took the bottle, drinking from it.

"Excuse me?" she asked calmly even though, inwardly, she was going into a panic. "What do you mean by that?"
Slowly, she got up and pushed the hair out of her face. "I should probably be going... If Jonathan wasn't looking for me before, I can almost guarantee that he is now."

Gypsy stayed seated, looking up at her, leaning back on her hands. "Fire, relax. Sit back down. He's not looking for you. Drag a trunk onto the door if it makes you feel better." She stretched her leg to tap her foot against her shin. "Come on, sit'own."

"Okay, okay," She said with a sigh as she reluctantly gave in to the other girl. She pushed a nearby trunk in front of the door before returning to her original spot across from Gypsy. "I'm sorry, he's just so.... I don't know..."

"Male?" Gypsy smirked at her, brow arched.

"Annoying," she answered with a laugh. "If it's not one thing, it's another with him. He means well, I suppose, but... Well..." She shrugged, looking down at her hands.

Gypsy shrugged, saying simply, "So break up with him. If you don't want him, get rid of him." She sat up, to reach out and grab Fire's hair again, liking the way her curls sprung up when she tugged then let go.
