Bryant O’Connor & Eva Jones

With Claire singing and dancing around the room, it was hard not to laugh at the sight. There was a literal leprechaun singing. Who gets to see something like this everyday? Eva clapped as her roomie finished the song. At least Claire had lifted up the spirits, and it looked like the party was slowly coming back to normal, with everyone being at least somewhat entertained.

As if Connor was going to let this dork in a leprechaun outfit show him. She had been funny, sure, but Connor would be better! Or something like that; more like than not, he’d go up there and make a total fool of himself, but hey, it was all about the fun, right? He clasped his hands together and moved toward the stage, snatching the mic off of the floor. “Alright, my turn.” He rubbed his hands together and moved over to the karaoke machine, a stupid grin on his lips as he shook his head and went through the different songs. “So, I’mma say this now, but I’m probably the best vocalist we know. Just ask Benji and Feliks about my Rock Band high scores.” He punched a button on the machine and his song started to play.

Eva raised her eyebrow, her hands paused mid-clap as she stared at Connor. 'What the hell is he planning now?' The girl wondered but didn't comment. With the music playing, it took only a second for her to realise what was playing. Confusion clouded her mind, and she couldn't stop herself from muttering, "who's he singing that for?"

Ah, jealousy.

Connor’s choice was a classic, easy song, and one he knew all the lyrics to from the aforementioned Rock Band playing. It would serve two purpose: first and foremost, it was more his speed, but secondly it was going to make this even. He moved his head back and forth to the opening guitar riff, resisting the urge to go ‘Dadada dada dadadada’ along with it. Once the lyrics to the song began, Connor looked over at Eva and grinned, pointing at her with a finger-gun motion, “So, one two three, take my hand and come with me, ‘cuz you look so fine that I really wanna make you mine,” as he sang, he had a stupid grin on his face.

It was now very clearly apparent who the song was for.

Whatever thoughts that were running through the girl's mind were immediately halted. She stood there, eyes wide and jaws slack as Connor pointed at her, almost as soon as she had muttered her question. If Eva's cheeks weren't already red enough, they felt like they were on fire. Her hand moved to cover her inflamed cheeks, blinking rapidly in surprise. Eva's lips curved into a smile, without her even realising, as she watched Connor's 'performance' closely.

Connor watched her lips curl up and saw Eva’s cheeks light on fire and he grinned. ‘Hey, good job me,’ he mentally congratulated himself. He continued to sing the lyrics, keeping all of his attention locked on Eva. “I say you look so fine that I really wanna make ya mine. Four five six, come on and get your kicks, now ya don’t need money, when you look like that, do ya honey?” Connor winked as he finished his question, breathing in shortly as there was a brief pause. “Big black boots, long brown hair, oh she’s so sweet with her get back stare!” Connor jumped down from the stage as the chorus of the song began, smiling as he sang his way across the floor and over to Eva.

“Oh, I could see you home with me, but you were with another man, yeahhh--” for the briefest of moments, Connor took his attention away from Eva and stuck his tongue out at Feliks, though it was just for a flash before he was back on Eva, almost directly in front of her as he sang. “I know we, ain’t got much to say, before I let you get awayyyy.” The song’s lyrics briefly paused as the guitar riff filled the void, and Connor took one of Eva’s hands in his free one, staring in her eyes now as he said the ending lines.

“Are you gonna be my girl?” He asked, then grinning dumbly, lifted her hand up to his lips and kissed it before he moonwalked--rather expertly--away from her. As it turned out, serenading was just as easy as it looked in movies.

Eva inhaled sharply at his wink. She could feel her heart pound against her chest, and for a moment, Eva hated Connor for the way he was making her feel and act. 'Stop acting like a school girl with the biggest crush in the world. Eva mentally berated herself, but she knew it didn't matter. She was hopelessly crushing on Connor and now she had no choice but to blush and squeal and giggle everytime he paid her the slightest bit of attention.

But this wasn't just the slightest. It was a whole lotta attention.

Well, Eva was certainly not complaining. Eva's cheeks grew impossibly darker as she realised Connor had changed the lyrics ever so slightly just to match her description, the girl's knees shaking slightly. She laughed - no, giggled - when Connor stuck his tongue out in Feliks' direction. She wanted to hide from all the attention Connor was giving to her, but at the same time she wanted to bask in it all. She loved and hated it.

It took all of her strength not to just swoon as Connor kissed her hand. But the magical spell broke as Connor literally Michael Jackson'ed it away from her. It was ridiculous and hilarious all at the same time, a weird snort escaping her lips. 

She was falling for him. Hard.

'What a bloody dork.'

When she snorted, Connor grinned and moved the mic away from his lips so the chuckle he had wouldn’t be caught. Smiling at Eva again, he began to sing the lyrics once more. Connor, all in all, wasn’t that bad, it was seeming. “Well, 1, 2, 3 take your hand and come with me.” He grinned and started back toward Eva as he sang, “Because you look so fine that I really make you mine. I say you look so fine that I really wanna make you mine~ Oh, 4, 5, 6 come on and get your kicks, now you don’t need money with a face like that, do ya, honey?” Another wink as he moved close to her again.

“Well, I could see you, home with me, but you were with another man, yeahhhh~ I know we ain’t got much to say, before I let you get awayyyy~” He paused, taking Eva’s hand as if he was going to kiss it again, but this time he lifted her hand over her head, giving her a light tug to spin her around as he lifted the mic to his lips again. “Are you gonna be my girl…?”

Eva's eyes narrowed as Connor moved the mic away as soon as she snorted, as if he were hiding a chuckle of his own. The girl decided to let it slide, instead tapping her heels to the beat of the music as she smiled brightly at him. Eva's cheeks were still red, but she was sure that he and pretty much everyone knew that she was blushing so there was no point to her in hiding it. Her eyes followed his every move, locking with his as he winked and moved closer to her, this time prepared for Connor to do something.

While she was prepared for Connor to kiss her hand, or something similar, she didn't expect to be spun in her place, the girl let out a surprised squeak as she was spun around. When Eva faced Connor again, as the music blared around them and his voice drifting off, she kissed him.

She kissed him.

Her lips were pressed against his, Eva on her tip-toes so she could reach the giant's. Even with her heels and being on her toes, there was still quite a difference in height. She had to pull Connor down slightly by tugging on his shirt, just to make things more comfortable for the both of them as she finally kissed him.

It registered a few seconds later, Eva blinking her eyes open - when did they even close? - to look at Connor with a mixed expression, with horror, surprise and happiness. Eva's heart was thumping hard, she could barely hear the instrumental in the background as she stared up at Connor. "I- uh..." She wanted to explain, but how she didn't know.

Eva could only hope that she did not completely ruin things between them.

Eva’s kiss catches him off slightly, but Connor quickly falls into it, slipping his arms around her waist. When she finally pulled away from him, Connor tilted his head, staring curiously at her. It had been surprisingly brave of her, and even Connor had been caught off guard. When she started stammering and trying to defend herself. Connor simply lifted one of his fingers up to her lips, pushing it against them softly to shush her. Once she trailed off completely, Connor leaned down slightly, kissing her again, this time more passionately, his hands on the small of her back.

Nat’s birthday? Yes. But it was Eva’s night.
