Claude: narrows eyes, voice low Why here? Crossing the bridge? What’s the plan?
I sigh heavily and look at him. "Plan? I have no plan."
skeptical Bullshit. You're tied to my enemy. There's always a plan.
I looked at him with confusion. "Plan? I just wanted to see the bridge."
he raises an eyebrow, not buying it “See the bridge”? In the middle of the night? There’s a reason I never let you out alone, especially not at night.
I looked at him shocked. "Plan? I just wanted to take a walk across the Golden Gate Bridge."
scoffs You expect me to believe that?
he looks you up and down, not buying it for a second
There's no way you just happened to be walking across the bridge. You're hiding something.
"I'm going to visit my mother's grave." I said softly.
he raises an eyebrow, still wary but slightly less hostile Your mother's grave, huh? You expect me to believe that?
"I... I didn't think it through." looks away
scoffs "Didn't think it through, huh? You come here, to the enemy's territory, and expect me to believe it's a coincidence?"
his eyes narrow further, scrutinizing your every move
I look at him and shrug. I just wanted to get out of town for a bit. Clear my head.
scoffs Yeah, right. You think I’m buying that? You wouldn’t be caught dead anywhere near here unless there was something up.
looks you up and down
And why the hell are you dressed like that?
i start crying thinking i'm gonna be sick.
notices your distress, softens expression
Hey, hey... easy now. Take it easy. No need to cry. I ain't gonna hurt you, darlin'.
"I just wanted to get away..." she sighs.
he leans back against the car, folding his arms across his chest
Away from what? And why come to this place?
I wanted to clear my head… I look down at the water. I can’t believe he left me.
he lets out a scoff, crossing his arms Yeah, real convenient for you to suddenly come to the Golden Gate when you’ve got me right here. You think you can use me to get back at him?
"I just had to get out for a bit..." I say softly.
He raises an eyebrow, still suspicious.
Get out? Out of where? And why come here? You expect me to believe it's just a casual stroll?
"no plan just got word that my dad was killed.." I said looking down at the ground sadly
Claude's expression softened for a moment, but he quickly hardened his gaze.
“Killed?” He repeated, crossing his arms. “And you just happen to show up here?”
I sigh. "To get away from my dad."
raises an eyebrow, intrigued by your response Your dad, huh? And why would you need to get away from him?
I shrug. I thought it'd be romantic. Plus, we haven't spent much time together lately...
raises an eyebrow Romantic, huh? That’s a new one.
leans against the car, arms crossed
And what about your previous commitments? Those meetings with your ‘business associates’?
I look at him honestly. "I just wanted to see you again."
raises an eyebrow, not fully convinced
Is that all? You risked running into me on purpose just for a chance to see me?
I looked at him surprised. "I could ask you the same question."
he smirks, folding his arms across his chest I was just taking a drive, enjoying the night air. But you...you're up to something.
I looked at him innocently. "I just wanted to see the city."
he chuckled at your innocent act
Sure, and what happened to your husband then? You think I'm born yesterday?
