Getting to Know Each Other {Danny and Mystic}

[[Jeni Lee : Danny : Graci]]

Danny pushed in the clutch and put the truck in nuetral, quickly setting the emergency brake. He slipped out of the dually and slammed the door. He walked around and opened up Mystic's door, offering his hand. Hey...the truck was pretty high afterall.

[[.Rabbit.David.Mystic Pearl.]]

Mystic blushes a little, but places her hand in Danny's as she gets out of the truck, and shuts the door. This, she realizes almost instantly, is where she works as a waitress..Oh, well. She's off today anyway. SHe just hopes her boss isn't here. The longer she's been with Danny--not that long, but still..--the most she's come to trust him, and come out of her "shell", just a little.

[[Jeni Lee : Danny : Graci]]

Danny smiled as he helped her down. "I'm starving...let's get some food." He laughed lightly as he made his way to the door, holding open the door for her. He had grown to like the girl, somewhat, but of course his feelings would be kept to himself until he'd known her better.

[[.Rabbit.David.Mystic Pearl.]]

She nods a little, walking in, but stops there, so Danny can come in. "Yeah, me too.." For a second, she has to resist the urge to seat herself. But she simply waits, patiently, for someone to show up and seat her and Danny.

[[Jeni Lee : Danny : Graci]]

Danny steps in behind her, moving next to her. He too awaits someone to seat them. "I haven't been in this place before..." he whispered. "But somebody said it was pretty good." He smiled his usual, icemelting smile and brushed his whispy locks from his fine featured face.

[[.Rabbit.David.Mystic Pearl.]]

"It is.." she whispers back. Then, a waiter Mystic doesn't recognize, comes over, asks them to follow him, and leads them over to the non-smoking section, placing them in a booth.

[[Jeni Lee : Danny : Graci]]

Danny smiled and picked up his menu. He's not sure what he wants to have yet...his gray blue/green eyes search the paper in front of him. Although he had spent years in the military, his gaze wasn't hard and cold as so many expected, and his attitude was lively and caring, not harsh and mean. He still had the sweet innocent temperment that he'd been born with, but the 'you mess with me and you're screw'd' attitude the military had instilled in him. Being with Mystic had taken the stressful situation with his baby sister off of his mind...so he felt so much better. He smiled softly, glancing at her with his soft gaze.

[[.Rabbit.David.Mystic Pearl.]]

Mystic glances down her menu quickly. She was given, from the doctor, a list of things not to eat--which consists of pretty much everything she loves--and this menu almost mirrors that list. Though, she doesn't completely hate salad...so that's what she decides on. She knows she should probably eat a little more than she does--or the babies might not grow as big as they should get--but she's had a hard time, up until about yesterday or so, with everything coming back up. Now, though, hopefully, it'll go away, and stay away.

[[Jeni Lee : Danny : Graci]]

Danny smiled. "I think I'll just have a burger and fries. What are you having?" he asked. He knew that he needed to eat better than that, to keep in shape. He didn't know when he'd be called back up to go to war again. They told him to be ready for deployment at any given time.

[[.Rabbit.David.Mystic Pearl.]]

Mystic shrugs a little. "Just a salad, I guess.." A waiter walks over, takes their orders, along with the menus, then turns and leaves.

[[Jeni Lee : Danny : Graci]]

Danny smiled and then looked at Mystic. "So, anyways...what do you do? For a job I mean." he asked, striking up conversation.

[[.Rabbit.David.Mystic Pearl.]]

Mystic pauses for a lnog moment. A smile spreads across her lips. "Actually, I'm a waitress..here. Off today, though." She rolls her eyes a little. Not the best job in the world, and she'll probably have to find a different one soon, but it suffices for now. "What about you?"

[[Jeni Lee : Danny : Graci]]

"Well... he started. He knew how a lot of people reacted to his career choice. "I'm a pilot in the US Army." he said softly.

[[.Rabbit.David.Mystic Pearl.]]

She smiles brightly. Her father had served in Vietnam, as a SEAL, so Mystic has always felt really close to members of the US Military. "That's awesome."

[[Jeni Lee : Danny : Graci]]

Jason smiled. That wasn't his expected reaction, it was much better than he figured. He laughed softly. "I figured you'd just...I figured you'd say something a little different." he said with bright eyes.

[[.Rabbit.David.Mystic Pearl.]]

"Really? Bad-different..?" She can't imaginme anyone not thinking a dude in the military is the greatest on earth. But that's just her. She's weird like that.

[[Jeni Lee : Danny : Graci]]

"Um, yeah. I guess. A lot of people stereo-type me as...I dunno, barbaric I guess is proper terminology. They just don't like the idea of the details of my job." he said with a sigh. And it was true, the killing just turned people away. He didn't like the idea either, but it was part of his job description. It was his duty. He was trained to defend, and if he had to use his weapon, which he most likely would, he would be willing to do so. He shrugged. "Most girls just see it differently I guess."

[[.Rabbit.David.Mystic Pearl.]]

"But if you wanted to fly planes, why not just join the Air Force?" She can't help but ask that--she just has to know. Of course, there isn't always reason behind actions, so she won't be disappointed if she gets the response "I don't know", or something to that effect.

[[Jeni Lee : Danny : Graci]]

He shrugged lightly. "Well, it's kinda stupid I guess...in a way. I wanted to join the army because a member of my family, if that's what you call him, was in the Army, and I used to want to be like him. Then things sorta changed, and I just did it for me. It just seemed best at the time. he smiled that uncertain smile that he kept hidden within him.

[[.Rabbit.David.Mystic Pearl.]]

Mystic pauses for a long moment, then nods, playing with her salad, using the fork. "That makes sense.."

{Mehh..sorry..short..xX }

[[Jeni Lee : Danny : Graci]]

He smiled. "I guess so." He ate on of his fries and then sighed.

[[.Rabbit.David.Mystic Pearl.]]

Mystic messes with her salad a bit more, taking random bites. She hasn't really been able to eat very much, it hurts when she does. As much as she hates the thought or leaving Danny, she feels like she needs to go home. "Um..This was great, thank you..But I think I should be getting home.."

[[Jeni Lee : Danny : Graci]]

"Umm, okay. Are you feeling okay? Are you sick?" he asked with a tone of concern in his voice. He didn't want to leave her, but he didn't want her to be sick or hurt.

[[.Rabbit.David.Mystic Pearl.]]

She smiles sweetly and shakes her head. "No, I'm fine. Just a little tired." She hates having to rest so much, but knows her limitation.

[[Jeni Lee : Danny : Graci]]

He smiled. "Do you want me to take you home?" he asked, standing and offering his hand to her.
