Claire & Didi 

Location: Fight And Fitness Gym
Interacting With: Each other, Dom -@Xtreme; Nat - @HushedWhispers; Feliks - @Turnaround Amy

	Claire couldn't but help and chuckle as she pushed her way into the gym; visions of Tas screaming at her out of the window covered in mousse dancing through her head. Perhaps pranking Tas with things being tense between the two was not the best of ideas but Claire was a live in the moment type of girl.

	Dropping her bag in the office, she checked her schedule and the time. She had a new client coming in today but she still had time before he arrived. "Sweet, I can get a few rounds in before I have to worry," she thought to herself as she slipped into the locker room and changed. 

	A sports bra, oversized tank and some gym shorts would work. After pulling on her soft soled shoes and lacing them up she walked out of the locker room; taping her fists up as she did. Glancing around she took stock of who was there and who wasn't. There were a couple she could spar with but she wanted to warm up first.

	Didi went into the front door, a first of the many attempts before backing out at every last minute and she greatly deserves a pat in the back for getting this far. Walking in and scoping the place  for any sign of Claire, she was obviously standing out of place in a crowd of well fit people, with her awkward stance and lanky frame. Feeling a little intimidated, and with the irish rose no where to be seen, she turned around, and honestly a bit disappointed. 

	The warm up would have to wait though as she spotted Didi, a bright smile coming to her lips as she did. Skipping over to Didi she draped an arm over her and gave her a squeeze; That's where Claire casually drops an arm over Didi to her surprise. She should really stop doing that. Didi always made her day more fun and since the party she looked forward to seeing the girl more than before. For her they had shared a moment, why not enjoy it?

"Hey cutie, gonna watch me knock some blokes block off or you want to join me?" she said in her ever hyper way.

"Uh, sure. I was just uhm..." She wouldn't let Claire get a single hint that she'd been spying on her since last week "..dropping by. Just now. Thought I could, you know, get a feel of the gym aura. Or whatever."  Yep, she's totally falling for that. It was so silly how her emotions act up this way. Claire is her friend and why would she get all giddy and anxious like some prepubescent schoolgirl when she's around. It was all fine until that night at the party, now she just doesn't know anymore.  

"Sweet, glad you dropped by. Gives me someone to show off for," Claire said as she put up her fists and pumped them a few times before glancing over at Didi and giggling; shrugging her shoulders a bit.

	To show off for. Why would she and what does she mean by it?  Whatever the reason, Didi found herself smiling as she met her glance, abruptly switching her  eye contact to a guy doing leg curls at mid struggle.  It didn't bother her as much as Claire did with her adorable giggle face. 

"Hey, are finals coming up for you? I have like three projects I have to finish," she said with a huff. The last two months she had been working with Tas and her brothers via Skype to try to get everything together. "My computer is acting up, mind coming over one night and helping me get is straightened out? I'm a total dolt when it comes to coding," she admitted. "I can pay with pizza," she said, flashing a smile.

	Come over. At night. If Claire had asked her this last week, Didi would totally have a different image in mind. The whole feeling wasn't the same now, and Didi's a bit scared on where this is going. She knew she was just overthinking things, as she always does at every case similar to these and for reasons, it never worked great for her. In her mind, making an excuse not to come might just save her a hurtling trouble, 

"Sure. I can help you out." w/c she stubbornly ignores and goes with her heart anyway. It's just helping a friend out fix her computer right?

"Awesome, it's a date," Claire exclaimed happily. She needed help but there were friends at college that could, but hey? Why not ask the cutie to help? Claire figured it was as good excuse as any to get to hang out with Didi. Had she been a bit more like Tas she probably would have tried to be sexy or smooth but Claire was a klutz with things like that and honestly she wasn't sure if Didi swung the same way she did. Was better to feel it out, but they did have a moment, didn't they?

	Didi held out her phone when a text arrive from Felix, eyes wide and ears red from what he said. Claire looked at Didi and perked a brow as her eyes went as big as saucers.

"Everything okay?" she asked, a little worried as she leaned over and took a look at Didi's phone. She probably shouldn't have but curiosity and cats you know?

From: Feliks G.
But speakn of wld lovin…Claire? You tap that yet? Because rly, needs to have happened like yesterday.

	Claire coughed slightly as she read the message. "Okay, maybe she does swing that way," Claire thought to herself. "Play it smooth."

"What the hell Feliks." Didi was about to reply when horror struck her as she noticed Claire perked a bit, eyes directly at her phone. She quickly try to delete the message, her phone slipping out of her jittery hands and quickly grabbing it on the floor. From then on she couldn't make eye contact with her.  "Pleas dont tell me she saw that."  She was mentally cursing Feliks for how wrong the timing of his message was. 

"So, um wanna wrestle?" Claire said and as soon as she did her eyes widened and she went three shades of red as her hand flew up and covered her own mouth. "Did I really just fucking say that?"

	Didi was now red faced, trying to look at Claire who was as shocked as she is. "W-What?"

"Um, you know," Claire said stumbling over her words as her hand slowly dropped from her mouth. "Could show you some moves. Can always tap out if it gets to rough," Claire added and then facepalmed herself. "What the hell is wrong with me?!?" Claire thought to herself.

	Trying not to add more to the awkwardness Didi tries to compose herself, nervously chuckling, "Psh, please. I'm not Kip-fragile you know, I can handle it. Plus, it's more exciting when you get rough." Didi paused, her face now truly horrified. "Oh God pls make it stop."

"Oh uh, I meant to say exhilarating." No. "The exercise. It's spiritually rejuvenating." You're losing point. "Roughness aside." At least you're trying. Didi just zipped it completely, her face red, eyes wandering anywhere but Claire.

"A little roughness can be fun," Claire said without thinking and then groaned as she looked up at the ceiling. "Really Claire? Why not just tell her you have a nice fuzzy pair of handcuffs she'd look great in," she thought before letting out a slightly frustrated sigh and trying to regain her composure.

"Um, could warm up, hit the bed... I mean bag, hit the bag!" Claire said as she pointed over to the hanging bag. "Claire get it together to woman!"

"R-right." Didi clears her throat, "The bag." guessing that it's a gym slang for that huge bag like thing on the corner. Honestly she havnt a single clue on the basics of working out, plus she hadnt brought any work out clothes with her, like she even has any in the first place.  "I dont mind watching you..." Didi catches up on her words "Work out. I mean if you're comfortable with me ogling. Observing, I meant. "

"No, I don't mind you checking me out, I mean checking out my moves, ugh," Claire said as she stood there starting to bounce nervously on the balls of her feet. "This is getting ridiculous!" she thought before looking back over to Didi.

"Fuck, I should just sprint for the door."  Didi thought after things were getting a bit ridiculously uncomfortable and getting a bit out of hand. She avoids her eyes but could clearly see in her peripheral that Claire was looking at her. 

"Fuck it," Claire said under her breath, more to herself than to the girl in front of her. Swiftly she reached out and cupped Didi's cheek and pulled her in for a quick but rather deep kiss. Pulling back abruptly she looked right into Didi's beautiful eyes.

	Didi was caught off guard when her warm hands touched her cheeks, the next thing she knew their lips were together, its as if her body had been jolted by a ray of lightning at the abrupt yet rather deep kiss. 

"I think you adorable," she admitted before she dropped her hand and cracked her knuckles. "Okay, time to work out," she said faster than she intended as she strolled over to the bag and started pummeling it; her arm and back muscles flexing under the extensive tattoo showing over the expanse of her back.

"Smooth Claire, really fucking smooth. You probably just scared her off! God she tastes good," Claire thought to herself as she continued to beat on the bag as hard as she could. 

	Didi was wide eyed, her face remained flushed more so than before, her eyes following the irish rose as she went towards the bag. She just stood there a good couple of seconds, taking in what just happened. THe whole thing was unexpected, Claire having feelings for her? Or just plain fancy her, at the very least? But the kiss says so much more than that and some tiny part of her was pushing to grab her hand and drag her to the to the lockers, the rest was to reach for the door and forget this whole thing ever happened.

	Claire kept pummeling the bag, driving her knee into every so often and cursing under her breath as she saw Didi make a beeline for the door out of the corner of her eye. "Way to jump the gun Claire, girl looked like a deer caught in headlights when you kissed her. Of course she is going to run," she thought as she drove her fist back into the bag and then stepped back frustrated. She wasn't even sure why she had kissed Didi. She was cute, she liked hanging out with her, she was fun. So why not? "Cause the girl is as timid as a church mouse that is why not Claire!"

	She paused midway through the door, her hands cold and sweating as she heaved a heavy sigh  "Oh well, fucking YOLO." Weak in the knees, Didi grabbed Claire's arm, dragging her to the lockers and pushing her against it, a little bit harder from the anxiety she was feeling, or perhaps the brewing excitement, but either way, her gut was acting all funny when she looked directly at her eyes. Claire's eyes widened as she was grabbed and manhandled, well womanhandled, back into the locker room. "Whoa..." she thought, she had not been expecting that.

"Great now what."  She was so not prepared for something like this to happen today. "Okay Dee, get your shit together" She quickly gathered her thoughts, trying to make out the words she intended to say. "Quick, time to pull a Valentino."

"Do you like Krispy Kreme?" She asked, with a rather straight face. "Cuz, I'm craving for a glazed doughnut right about now." Oh, God help this girl. 

	Yeah, a doughnut, "can I lick the glaze off your fingers?" Claire thought but thankfully actually kept her big trap shut that time. "Okay Claire, keep calm. She's a girl, you're a girl. It's cool. You got this," she thought, giving herself a little pep talk.

"No but I could really go for a taco right now," Claire said with a shrug and then just shook her head. 

"YES! Tacos!" Didi said rather excitedly. She clears her throat, trying to collect herself. "I like Tacos. Mexican food, in general."

	Her phone going off with a slew of text notifications; picking it up from her bag and reading through them. The main one being from Nat that she was already headed to Ryan's for lunch. Save by the ding!

"Hey, lunch! Wanna walk with me, it's only a block from here?" Claire rambled off as she looked at her messages. "Yeah, good choice Claire, let's make this whole thing a public affair.

"Well, I brought my bike. If you want we can ride together at Ryan's." Didi slightly winced at how wrongly out of context that was, taking a deep breath "Or we could just do that right here, right now. Wait... What the fuck Dee." She tries to shake off her terrifyingly impure thoughts. 

	Claire looked at her oddly as if she had just lost her ever loving mind and then laughed. "So who rides and who steers?" she giggled.

	 Claire was about to say something else when through the gyms speakers started blaring Katy Perry's I Kissed a Girl.

"I kissed a girl and I liked it. The taste of her cherry chap stick."

"Seriously?!?!" Claire exclaimed.

	She was oddly adorable when she's irritated and raging, and Didi wasn't sure if she should feel delighted, or scared at the thought of it. And this song,  why does it feel like karma is trying so hard to humiliate her today, did she ticked off the juju god or something? The song was practically a sign, but as for following it, playing safe would get her nowhere and Didi either wants this, or wants this.  "Heads up."  She said as she macked her hard, eager and sloppy as if devouring her entire face. 

	Claire slammed back against the locker, her eyes wide open as Didi kissed her. She had to give the girl props for aggression but she felt like she was getting attached by Saint Bernard puppy; it was wet, it was sloppy and she didn't know if she should push her away, laugh or just go with it. Smiling Claire cupped her cheeks and pulled her back slowly, shaking her head slightly as she placed a soft kiss to the girls lips.

	Didi felt a rush of blood to her cheeks, slightly embarrassed as Claire pulled her back, but the softness of her lips made it all feel alright again.  

"Jinkies Scooby, been a while since you had a Scooby snack?" she said in a light hearted fashion as she rested her temple against Didi's and giggled.

"Well, I can't say I had my share of Scooby snacks before." She was smiling at her,"Not as good as this one at least."

"Come on, let's go get lunch," she said reaching down and grabbing her gym bag; she wasn't going to bother changing, she had to be back up at the gym later anyways. Reaching down she took Didi's hand and laced her fingers through hers.

	Didi was so glad of this whole scuffle, even though she honestly has no idea what the fuck had just happened. And probably if it weren't for that, she'd still be walking blindly and wouldn't able to figure out her feelings for Claire. But she couldn't help but feel guarded, the judgmental looks, the commitment, it is all very new to her. It's not that she's assuming that they're gonna go official or anything, or did that just happened?  

"Maybe they'll have Taco's and Doughnuts!" she laughed as she headed for the door, keeping a firm grip on Didi's hand; half not wanting to let go and half afraid the girl would bolt.

"I heard Ryan's have the best tacos in town." she giggled with her, Claire gripping her hand. Nope, she's not going nowhere, not today.

 As they passed the DJ Booth, Claire held up a finger for Didi to wait and then burst into the booth and decked the DJ. Grinning from ear to ear she stepped back over to Didi and took her hand once again.  Didi peeked through the booth to see the DJ out cold, her eyes didn't leave for awhile as both of them walked to the door. 

"Taco's and Doughnuts Ho!" she yelled as she pushed out of the gym. Didi was giggling as a crowd of bystanders watched the woman. Now her hands are shivering, when she saw some people looking at them rather strangely, their laced fingers to be precise, or was it just her. She was sure that that elderly woman just gave her a look when she saw them together, and this made her hand jerk away from Claire, moving hastily towards the rails to unhook her bike. Claire perked a brow and then took note of the old woman and stuck her tongue out at her. The Irish Rose didn't give two shits what anyone thought or the looks they gave.

"Let's? "She said gesturing to Claire, as she sat on her ride. 

	Claire shrugged and climbed on. "Let's go!" she laughed as tried to keep herself balanced on the bike. This was going to be interesting but hey, it was fun and she was going with the moment. Life was too short in her opinion not to grab the bull by the horns, or the bike by the handles, or hell the girl by the cheeks.

	Didi has always been a practical person, and even though it sometimes contradicts her "live for the moment, fuck your opinion" nature, it couldnt be helped that most of the time her head speaks louder than her heart but with this woman soothingly clutching behind her , she'd gladly give the whole world a giant fuck you as they both ride off to the sunset, but she needs time. A lot of it. 

	Once they go there she hopped off and spun around. "That is a hell of a lot better than having to sit shot gun with Tas behind the wheel. Dear god," she laughed. 

"My usual carpooling price is 30 bucks a day, if you're interested. " She jokingly said to her, as she hooked her bike on the rack.

"You took care of the ride, lunch is on me... I mean I'll pay for it, lunch. I'll pay for lunch!" Claire said and groaned. "Mother Mary of God, what the fuck is wrong with me!"

"Ha. I dont mind having you for lunch.  " She didnt mean to say that out loud but again, awkwardness ensued. "I mean if we could, I dunno eat lunch together at the apartment, or whatever. I'd like to have over. For lunch"
she clears her throat as she wobbly locks her bike.

	Claire waited for Didi before pushing the doors open to Ryan's and looking around, seeing Nat, Dom & Feliks she waved and then stopped in her tracks as she rested her hand on Didi's shoulder and groaning. 

	Didi had almost forgotten about Edgar, she never knew the man and although he was an asshole with what he did to Nat,  there's probably a good explanation why she's is acting all friendly to him right now. 

"Well this went to shit fast," she whispered as she motioned over towards Eddy.

"Easy there, girl." Didi pats Claire's shoulder, now is not the time for another royal rumble. 

"I never do things nice and easy," Claire said, imitating Tina Turner and then realized just how bad what she said could be taken and smacked herself on the forehead. 

	Didi giggled, This dork she thought. "Well if shit starts brewing, I'll be handing you a towel by the corner."

Taking a deep breath she smiled at Didi before hoping over to the group. Giving Feliks a bit of a smirk before bouncing over to Dom and hugging the stuffing out of her bear of a brother. Didi gave Feliks an unamused glare, as if to say I really want to rip your throat but thank you.

"Hey bro, you catch the game last night? Can you believe that call the ref made? I mean seriously, me blind grandma could have done a better job," she said, totally ignoring Eddie but shooting Nat a look of "Seriously?"

	As the waitress came over, she asked if anyone wanted anything to drink or an appetizer as they waited for the rest. Claire was all to quick to pipe up.

"Tacos, I need tacos... Shrimp, no. Fish! I want fish tacos! And she wants doughnuts!" Claire rambled off, pointing to Didi about the doughnuts before her face went three shades of red and she dropped her head onto the table and put her hands over herself. "Just shoot me now," she meant to think but she said it out loud.

	Didi was face palming the whole time, trying to conceal her scarlet face to everyone. "Oh God why." she muttered. "I have no idea who this woman is." as she scoots away from Claire.
