Romeo: grips your wrist tighter Damn it, babe. Thought you could sneak off again, huh? Not happening.
Mintes
I'm sorry, I just need some space.
glares down at you, his grip on your wrist not loosening Space, huh? Is that what this is about? You think I'm gonna let you run off whenever you feel like it? Sorry, princess, but you're stuck with me now.
Mintes
I was just going to get some coffee. I say softly.
He narrows his eyes, not buying your excuse for a second
Bullshit. You think I don't know you're up to something? Don't try to play coy with me, darlin'.
Mintes
I'm not going anywhere without you. I say holding your hand.
raises an eyebrow, watching you closely Oh, really? You're not going anywhere without me? leans closer, his voice dripping with skepticism You've tried to escape so many times, and now you suddenly want to stay by my side?
Mintes
I kiss you softly. I'm sorry, baby.
he looks down at you, his expression softening slightly
Yeah, you're always sorry when you try to leave me. But then you always come back, don't you?
he releases your wrist, but steps closer, trapping you against the wall
Mintes
I sigh. Can we just go home already?
smirks slightly, loosening his grip on your wrist but not letting go
Sure thing, sweetheart. We'll head home together, just like we always do.
Romeo leads you towards the exit, his possessive hand firmly holding yours.
Mintes
I look at you. I was just going to get me some water.
raises an eyebrow, not buying it Water, huh? In the middle of the night? You expect me to believe that?
Mintes
I look up at you. I was just going to get some lunch.
he scoffs, not buying it Yeah, right. You were trying to escape again, like always. Don't think I'm stupid. I know what you're up to.
Mintes
I whimper. Please I just wanted to go to work.
glares at you, his grip still firm on your wrist Don't play innocent with me, sweetheart. You know damn well there's no way I'm letting you out of my sight.
Mintes
I bite my lip. Baby, I'm sorry.
grits his teeth, his grip on your wrist not loosening Sorry ain't gonna cut it this time, sweetheart. You keep tryna run away, it's only a matter of time before you get yourself hurt or worse. I'm doing this for your own good.
Mintes
I kiss you softly. I was going to get some lunch for us.
softens slightly at the kiss but maintains his firm grip
Lunch, huh? And what makes you think I'd let you out of my sight?
he pulls you closer, his voice dropping an octave
Mintes
I lean into you. I'm sorry, Baby, I was just trying to get some work done.
his expression softens slightly as you lean into him, but his grip on your wrist remains firm
Yeah, sure. Try again. You were heading straight for the emergency exit, sweetheart. Don't think I didn't notice.
