Klaus

[poison_isley]

Ivy was so fucking bored. She'd robbed a jewelry store, a book shop, and liberated a flower shop. Now that she's bought her latte and was in her car she grew frustrated trying to think of what to do to kill the itch she had to just...just fucking tear something down. Like Big Ben. Or the Eyes. Something cool.

Rather than go full on chaos, she swung her little red convertible around and headed to Klaus's flat. Now that he and Eliot had patched things up she wasn't seeing him as often as she liked. She'd like it if he stayed at hers, but he was his own person and blah blah or whatever.

She was casual today in a pair of good skinny jeans and a Bad Religion shirt. Her hair was down and loose and her sunglasses she'd pushed up, which kept here hair back.

"You better be home, loser," she said to herself as she knocked firmly.

So maybe having some friends with a string of shitty boyfriends gave her a unique kind of perspective- because, really, Eliot wasn't going to try to explode Klaus or drop him in acid- but that was still up there on the shitty-things-for-a-husband-to-do list.

"It doesn't sound like honesty did anything but make you feel bad and absolve him of doing anything wrong. Did you tell him that's not okay, Klaus? Did you tell him/" she pressed, ultimately wrapping him in a spindly hug.

[seanceinfurs]

"We're not adjoined to the hip, Ivy," Klaus assured, feeling better for dismissing the whole thing. "Alright? He can do as he wants."

[poison_isley]

"And you're going to stand here and look in my eyes and tell me with a straight face that that in no way bothers you?" she asked. "Bullshit. Don't lie to me, sugar. The more you lie, the more i want to punch him."

[seanceinfurs]

"Look, it's nothing, okay? We're not exclusive..." Oh, Klaus was aware how that sounded. "Look, if I wanted him to stop, I'd ask him. It was just a kiss. Poor Fin has lost his lover. It was just comfort."

[poison_isley]

"Uh...huh," she replied, clearly not buying it for a second. She touched his face again, then his arm, then took his hand.

"If it's so cool, I got your back," she promised. She specifically did not say how though.

[seanceinfurs]

Klaus kissed the top of her head, quitely affirming that he was thankful for her support - even if he didn't get exactly why she thought it necessary. "Tell me what you've been up to, honey," he said instead and pulled away to pour the coffee.

[poison_isley]

"Not much. I smashed this guy the other night and he wa sso worth it. I couldn't even walk," she grinned with a note of pride.

[seanceinfurs]

"Oh my God," Klaus grinned. "What monster must he have been!" He said dramatically.

[poison_isley]

"He was great," she grinned. "Definitely worth it. Most dudes aren't."

[seanceinfurs]

"Well, depends on where you prowl," Klaus joked. "Where'd you go?"

[poison_isley]

"Saturnalia. I lucked out because he's the owner. Has a bed in his office, so basically no work on my part," she explained.

[seanceinfurs]

"Oh, Rob," Klaus said in a sing-songy voice. "Yeah, he's fun."

It had been ages since he set foot in Saturnalia. Every memory he had of the place ended in a blur due to all the drugs. He hadn't been there since he got sober.

[poison_isley]

"Oh, Rooooooob," she sang back to him, then broke into laughter. "Yeah. Yeah, I'd call him fun. Like hella."

[seanceinfurs]

"To be fair, I only had him when I was wasted, so I'm not sure if he's all that he's cracked up to be," Klaus teased playfully.

[poison_isley]

"He cracked me just fine," she smirked. "He's fucking huge and he could keep up. And-and? Totally down with green," Ivy added, drawing a finger along her arm to illustrate her skin.

[seanceinfurs]

"No surprises there," Klaus laughed.

[poison_isley]

"Definitely keeping his number," she said. Probably not often, but sometimes a girl just needed to blow off some steam. "That was the best night. What have you been doing?"

[seanceinfurs]

"I've been practicing," Klaus said. "And going to group, and maybe we should go out again, because the highlight of my week was Eliot coming home drunk and fucjing me like there was no tomorrow." Nit that it was bad, but for a highlight it was a bit sad.

[poison_isley]

"That's it? Fuck that...let's go out," she said with conviction.

[seanceinfurs]

"Back to your boy toy?" Klaus teased.

[poison_isley]

"I mean, if you wanna," she shrugged. "I was thinking about going to check out Eliot's gallery..."

[seanceinfurs]

"Maybe somewhere else," Klaus agreed. "Not Eliot's gallery. Unless you want to buy a painting. With money. Real money." He guessed he should add that.

[poison_isley]

"I have a shitload of diamonds in my car," she suggested.

[seanceinfurs]

"Stolen diamonds as currency... Okay. Well, he can always decline the payment," Klaus shrugged happily.

[poison_isley]

"Deal," she nodded.

"You want to go out-out, too? Dinner, dancing...anything?" Ivy asked then, silently judging his clothes.
