He leaned forwards again, this time relaxing in his chair. He noticed all her signs and wished to the maker that he could act on each and everyone of them. Not here, not now, it wasnt appropriate, it wasnt right...
"I love what I see but I'd like a better view"
Ack, fruedian slip, quick, switch it up, make it relavent to the situation...
"...of your ship of course, to make sure there isnt any...ummm, funny business"

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Well...that certainly didn't sound right.<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

"Um...you mean you like to look it over? Well that's fine. I don't mind."

Cairo was <!--EZCODE BOLD START--> so<!--EZCODE BOLD END--> glad she was a neat-freak and kept that stupid ship spotless and empty...except for a hydrospanner in the engine room and clean sheets for the living quarters.

She stood and motioned to the lift as she started for it, "It's parked down the street just a short ways...if you don't mind to walk, that is."

"You sure you want another ride on the lift? I could call a shuttle for us..."
He indicated a sliding door to the roof in the corner of the room. But again he couldnt avert his gaze from her beautiful face. He was hooked...again. The maker seemed to have sent her back to him for a second chance, a second chance he intended to make due upon.
"Either way, lets go"

"Well...going down isn't too bad, it's going up that makes me sick."

"A shuttle?" Cairo just smirked, "Don't you ever <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> not<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> use your power and wealth to do things? Maybe, for once, you ought to try doing something that normal people do...and just walk."

She continued as they both got in the lift..."That's the main reason no-one thinks 'Solo' when they see me, I don't act like the others. Maybe that's the reason your not well liked, you flaunt your prowess too much."

The doors closed and they started down. The lift jerked a bit at first and Cairo grabbed Raktus' arm instictively...then let go suddenly, blushing. Cairo bit her lip and brushed a stray strand of dark hair behind her ear nervously. The extremily close quarters made her start to think that a shuttle wouldn't have been such a bad idea...

He enjoyed her touch, as soft as an angel's kiss on his arm, brief but heavenly. He looked back over to her, he saw the blush and smiled warmly
"Dont worry, nothing to be worried about, these lifts are top of the line. Thats not flaunting by the way, just my vote of reassurance. Actually, I like it that your not completely like the others, you use your brains more often than not. Thats quite admirable, like how you made an appointment, I was quite impressed."
He turned to face her in the lift, enjoying her gaze for the time being
"And its not that I like to show off, I just like to enjoy the lesuire in it all. Ill still walk the stairs if need be, im not helpless, I just dont want to do what I dont have to, you understand"

"I understand. Your just lazy." She smirked as she nudged him softly...Cairo had actually teased someone. That didn't happen often, only with Jai actually.

Cairo was relieved when the lift doors opened and she could walk out. She did so and didn't wait for Raktus, she just walked out of the lift and into the lobby, and then into the street. She knew he was close behind, the sound of his expensive boots agianst the walk beneath thier feet was unmistakeable.

It didn't take long to get to her ship, a inherited hand-me-down YT 2400 from her cousin Ben. "Well, here we are. <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Yavin's Light<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->..."

"What a..."

Peice of junk....
Bag of bolts.....
Flying trash can...

"..inventive name, your idea? Is it just me or is the Solo name tied in with this ship format? Seems to me that yall like this vessel way too much..."

"Actually, if I had named it, it would be called the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> ScrapHeap<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->. I hate it...and it's YT 1300's that my family members seem to be enthralled by. Personally, I don't like flying...but, don't let them know that." Cairo smiled and lowered the ramp.

"You can take a look. I can assure you that nothing will happen. I'll shoot Jai with a stun-bolt if I have to in order to get her home."

"Ha! My kinda woman..."
Seriously...
"Funny enough, when I decide to go into space I do it in a fashion where you wouldnt even know you were in space. But then again, you probobaly remember that old thing. Ive just made some improvements."
He walked up to the ramp then turned back to her.
"Coming?"
[i]He held his hand out to her...

Cairo smiled, "Alright.", and took his hand.

"You snoop and I'll follow. Cabin's that way, lounge room is that way, engine room is here, and everything else is marked..."
