Tobias Greene x Mary (me and Zola) (done) Newyearsjackalope

Heartbroken. Ashamed. Alone.

A night shared with Siren had been wonderful, and Toby had been looking forward to waking up the next morning and asking her to move in with him, or at the very least get to know each other better. He had enjoyed a night with her so much that he wanted to be with her, at least for a while. But when he had woken up in the morning, she had been gone. No number to call, no address to visit. Gone without a trace.

Every night since then, Toby had visited the club they had gone to together, hoping that she would be there. But alas, she never showed up. Various girls had tried to hit on him, but Toby just wasn't up for that. He was done with one-night stands...they only left him alone and heartbroken. What he really needed right now was a friend, just someone to talk to.

But what were the chances of that happening in a nightclub?

Tobias Greene x Mary (me and Zola) (done) Fortunejackalope

Nightclubs. They were noisy and crowded. They were the perfect place for going to get away, at least for Mary they were. She didn't have any worries here, other than to keep herself safe. The reason she was here tonight was because she needed to get out, but also because she had been told not do. She wandered over to the bar, noticing a rather sad looking young man.

Mary sat down on the bar stool beside him and ordered a drink. While she waited, she decided to speak to him. What could it hurt? She batted her eyelashes and smiled sweetly. Her light blue eyes peaking out from under them. "Hey there, mister," she said. "You look kinda sad. What's bugging ya?" She looked at him curiously, concerned even.

A girl sat down beside him, but Toby kept looking down at his drink. He probably appeared drunk, although he hadn't even taken two sips of his drink yet. But the way he sat, slouched, the haggard way he looked when he usually appeared so well-kept and groomed, and the bags under his eyes probably made him appear to be wasted.

When the girl talked to him, Toby finally looked up from his drink. She was pretty - not in the flashy, over-the-top way Siren had been - but in a real way. It was the type of beauty that was there even without caking on makeup and wearing tight, revealing clothes. The way she was kind to him definitely caught his attention; she wasn't coming on to him, just asking what was wrong. Because of this, he decided to actually answer her, unlike the last few girls that had attempted to talk to him.

"A girl," he said quietly. "I knew we weren't gonna have anything lasting, but I didn't think she'd just up and leave without even saying goodbye." He sighed and ran a hand through his hair. "That probably sounds stupid, doesn't it?" He noticed the bartender setting the girl's drink in front of her, and quickly handed him the money to pay before she could. "I'm Tobias Greene by the way, you can call me Toby."

Mary's eyes took in the guy's rugged appearance, sensing that this girl had really put him through the ringer. It was girls like that that gave girls like her a bad name. She tossed back her red tinted hair and took the drink from the bartener, taking a sip. "Thanks," she said quietly to Tobias as he paid for her drink. "Nah, not stupid at all," she said kindly. It said to her that this man wasn't just some guy looking to hook-up. He was sensitive, which surprised the young woman.

"I'm Mary," she said softly. "Just Mary." She smiled again. This whole rebellious thing was actual pretty good on this night. She had managed to meet a guy who was willing to just chat with her.

For a moment, when Mary flipped back her hair, Toby was entranced by it. It reminded him of Siren's hair for a moment, and he almost broke down. But then he took a deep breath, and forced himself to notice the differences. Her hair was only red tinted, while Siren's had been a deep, bloody red in color. And Mary's eyes were a beautiful blue, while Siren's were green...so green...

He shook his head, attempting to push away all thoughts of Siren and focus on Mary. "Well, it's nice to meet you, 'Just Mary'." He gave a boyish half-grin, although his eyes remained slightly sad. Finally remembering the drink in front of him, and no longer to lost in his own thoughts to just stare into it, he grabbed it and took a sip. "So, you came alone? No boyfriend?"

"Nice to meet you too," she said with a grin. His smile sure was handsome, but Mary was sure he'd be even more handsome if he could shake the sadness from him. She took a sip of her drink as well. She probably wouldn't finish the thing because she wasn't really into drinking, but it was good.

"Ah, yep," she said as Tobias asked about coming alone. "No boyfriend," she said with a small grin. She was glad she didn't have one, actually. Her last one had been over-protective, which caused her to act out even more. She twirled a strand of hair in her fingers, wondering where this was going to go. For some reason she was unusually quiet, she just hoped that this Toby guy didn't mind feeding the conversation for now.

Her smile was pretty, and Toby couldn't help but feel, at least a bit, happier. Maybe it was time to put Siren and his one night behind them. If she didn't care to even stay until morning, she surely wasn't worth his grief, right? And getting upset over her surely wasn't helping him, not in the slightest. In fact, it was only holding him back from meeting someone else and finding the happiness he should have had. He had never really been looking for a long-term relationship, so why was he now upset that his night with Siren hadn't turned into one? It honestly didn't make sense, and it was time for him to get over it.

"Well, this probably isn't the safest place for you then," Toby's grin widened. "A pretty, single girl like you alone at a nightclub with all these lonely guys? You're liable to get hit on by some pretty crazy guys. I should probably stick with you to make sure no one bothers you." He winked playfully.

Mary giggled, a girlish sound that she couldn't stop before it escaped her mouth. "I can take care of myself," she said with a wink of her own. She was right about Toby's handsomeness. It did come out more when he truly smiled. "But, I wouldn't mind your company," she added with a small, slightly flirtatious smile.

"Besides, I haven't met a crazy one yet," she added. Unless she counted Toby as crazy, but he was only crazy for another girl he had met. A girl who had left him alone. Mary wasn't one for one night stands, especially for leaving the guy without a trace. It seemed cruel, even to her, who thought the world was out to get her most of the time.

Toby allowed his gaze to go up and down her body, faking a look of being skeptical. "Hmm...I'm not so sure. Crazy guys can be pretty strong. And you never know who the crazy ones are either." He nodded thoughtfully. "Yep, I'll just stay with you just in case." He chuckled. "No, but I would like to keep you company, and since you said you didn't mind, I suppose I'll be doing that."

Taking another sip of his drink, he tried to think of something to say. "So, you got any family? Brothers, sisters and the like?"

Mary noticed his eyes traveling up and down her body, but she noticed that it wasn't threatening nor an actual checking her out look. It seemed more innocent to her, although she wouldn't know for sure. She stuck her tongue out at him when he voiced his doubt. But he was probably right. She may talk big, but she knew it wouldn't be possible to fight off a guy. She was rather petite after all.

"Nah, I've got a few housemates, but that's it. I never met my family," she said with a shrug. "But the people I do with like to nag me about my attitude," she added, scrunching up her nose to make a face sort of of disgust. "How about you? Any relatives, hmm?" She smiled sweetly, truly interested.

When she stuck her tongue out, Toby laughed and reached his hand out, trying to grab it, but missing by a split second. "You should be careful who you do that to. Someone might be faster than me. My big brother always used to do that to me when I was younger and stuck my tongue out at him." He laughed again.

"I used to have family, but not anymore." Toby shrugged. "My parents split up a while ago, and I can't stand being with either one of them since they're always talking bad about the other one. My older brother was my only sibling, and he moved away quite some time ago when he found out he was gay. He didn't tell us where he was going, and he hasn't contacted me at all."

Mary jumped back slightly at Toby's grab for her tongue. She laughed along with him, "Well, I've never thought of that," she said with a grin. His playful grab made him even that much more attractive to the young woman. Playful, handsome, sensitive. She wondered what other qualities he was hiding.

"Do you miss 'em at all?" The story of his family sounded sad. She had always heard stories of families splitting up, but it was always hardest for the kids, no matter their ages. She counted herself lucky sometimes, not knowing hers.

"There's a lot of things that people never think about, my dear." Toby faked a British accent as he said the words, feeling silly for some reason. "For one thing...who figured out how math works, hmm? Surely numbers didn't just always exist. They had to have been created, right? So who created it?" He laughed. "Sorry, I'm feeling a bit silly tonight."

He shrugged, although it was apparent by the look on his face that he did miss them. "Yeah, I do. But I figured it's less stressful to just not be around them."

Mary giggled again at Tobias's comment. "I suppose you are right," she said, imitating a British accent as well. She smiled again, switching back to her regular talking voice. "Math shouldn't exist," she commented. "It's just a bunch of made up things that happen to work out together. I strongly dislike the subject," she added with a small frown.

"It's all good," she said with a frown. "Silly is good," she added with a wink.

"Awe," she commented. "It's rough, huh? Maybe your brother'll contact you again someday. You'd be surprised how deep sibling ties run," she added. She wished she knew how to comfort him, but didn't know how. She placed a hand on his back, rubbing it gently.

The way things were going, Toby couldn't help but hope that he would be seeing quite a bit more of Mary. She wasn't like other girls, only out for a single night of fun. She was sweet, and funny; it was refreshing for Toby to meet someone like that. "Well, if you dislike the subject, then I'll just drop it." He smiled at her. "I'm glad you like silly...I'd be feeling pretty stupid right now if you didn't."

Her hand moving gently over his back felt both calming and comforting, and Toby smiled at her thankfully. "I hope he will. He left because he thought we wouldn't be able to accept him. I'm not sure that my parents would have, but I think that as long as he's happy and it works for him, there's nothing wrong with it. We were close once, so I'm really hoping he comes back, or at least writes or something."

An upbeat song started playing, and Toby started bobbing his head slightly. Looking up at Mary hopefully, he asked, "Any chance you'd like to dance with me?"

Mary smiled at Toby, "Yeah," she said softly. "I'm sure he will eventually, once he feels comfortable," she added. "He's probably just afraid you won't accept him," Mary added to what he was saying.

She took a quick sip of her drink, then slid off the stool, offering her hand to Toby to lead her out onto the dance floor. "Certainly," she said sweetly. She listened to the music, getting into the beat as she waited for Toby.

((Sorry for shortness. >.>))

((Don't worry about it. Mine are probably gonna start getting shorter since I'm trying to talk to my fiance, watch Family Guy with him, play Aywas, and be on here all at once xD))

"Probably," Toby agreed.

Toby smiled at Mary and took her hand, leading her onto the dance floor. The song was fairly upbeat, and Toby started moving his body slightly to the beat. He wasn't as nervous as he had been when trying to dance with Siren. For some reason, he felt more comfortable with Mary. "So, do you like dancing? I haven't seen you here before..."

Mary followed Toby onto the floor gladly. She moved her body to the music as well. "It depends," she said offhandedly. "I don't go to clubs more than once much," she said with a shrug. She always liked to try different places. They all had different music, people, ect.

She lifted her hands in the air, her shirt rising up off her stomach a little bit. She knew she should probably pull it back down, but she honestly didn't feel like it at the moment. She continued to move her body and swing her hips to the beat of the music that was pounding in her head. "How about you?" She asked, lowering her hands to rest them on Toby's shoulders.

((Alrighty, I'm watching TV as well. XP))

(Haha nice xD Technically I should be sleeping, since it's like 1 AM, but I always stay up late :P)

"Oh, really?" Toby tried not to stare in a way that some of the other guys he saw were. Mary did look pretty...well, sensuous when she danced. "Why is that?"

When her shirt lifted up slightly, Toby's gaze fell to the small bit of skin that was now showing. He tore his gaze away quickly though, looking up at her eyes instead. He enjoyed physical pleasures as much as the next guy, but he felt like Mary was worth more than that. He didn't want to degrade or disrespect her by treating her like a common whore, which she most certainly wasn't. Settling his hands loosely on her waist - careful not to have them too low - he answered, "I've actually been coming here pretty often. I was actually looking for the girl that screwed me over, but now...well, I don't mind so much." He grinned at Mary.

"Well, I like the different scenes," she said with a shrug.

Mary liked the way Toby was keeping eye contact, rather than his gaze being glued to her body. She hated it when guys did that. His hands felt warm against her waist, comfortable even. She took a moment to think about what she wanted to say to Toby's last comment. "I see," she said with a smile.

Silence hung between the pair for a few moments, but it wasn't awkward, at least not to Mary. "I'm glad I've met ya, Toby," she said with a small smile, leaning her head against his chest. Despite the upbeat music still playing, she had changed her rhythm, slowing down a bit and merely swaying.

((Yeah, me too. It's nearing 1:30 am. :P))

(Oh yeah! Just 5 More! I think... :P)

"Different scenes are good," Toby smiled. "Although if you find a place you like, nothing wrong with going back there."

A slight blush rose onto Toby's cheeks - something that was very unfamiliar with him. He was used to being a lady's man, confidant, being phased by nothing. Yet now he was looking down, trying to hide his blush. "I'm glad I met you too, Mary." Toby pulled her a bit closer as they slowed down, inhaling deeply as he smelled the sweet scent of her hair. He didn't know what to say then, so he just danced, enjoying the peaceful moment.

"True, true," Mary said faintly.

As Toby drew her closer, Mary tightened her grip on him. She looked up at him, seeing the slight color rising up his cheeks. It was cute. She smiled again. She wondered what his response would be to her kissing him. She wanted to, but was hesitant. It was an odd feeling to her, but Toby just made everything different to her. This night was different somehow.

She decided to go for it anyway. She tilted her head up, then kissed him gently on the lips. She felt a flutter like butterflies in her stomach, something she hadn't felt in a long time.

((Actually, 3, after this one. I think. :P))

((Oh, yup, you're right :P So after this post, you'll post once, and then I get the last post :P))

The kiss was definitely unexpected, and caught Toby off guard. He was so surprised that for a moment, he couldn't even respond. But then he kissed her back, gently. It was as if fireworks were going off, and Toby felt as if for once in his life, something was going right.

When they parted, Toby smiled at her. "You know, Mary, you're not like any other girl I've ever known. Most girls that I actually get a long with only want one thing." He blushed slightly. "But you're different. Any chance you'd want to go out sometime?" He bit his lip nervously, waiting for her to write him off.

Mary enjoyed the kiss as well, and missed the feeling of his lips against hers when they broke the kiss. It was her turn to blush at his comment, "Thank you," she said softly. She knew what Toby was referring to, even though he didn't mention it by name.

With his question, Mary hesitated only slightly because it was unexpected. She bit her lip, looking up at Toby's eyes. "I'd love to," she said with a small smile. She wondered how well another meeting would go. Hopefully fantastic, she thought to herself.

((Yay!! Big Grin))

Toby's smile widened at her answer. Unable to contain his happiness, he picked her up and spun her around, before setting her back on the ground. "You have no idea how happy you made me, Mary. I'm hoping that we get to become very close." He pulled her close again and resumed dancing. Even as they slowly swayed on the crowded dance floor, Toby felt like he and Mary were the only ones in the room, and he couldn't help but already looking forward to their next meeting.

((Done!!!))
