April had honestly been pretty well behaved thus far, she'd managed to keep her hands off off of Shelby in the cab, and even when they'd gotten into the apartment. Every little blush, every little twitch of nervousness and awkward flirting being fired back at April made her want the girl even more. It really was torture, but she didn't want to push Shelby. And it paid to wait until everything was comfortable and perfect. Resulted in a more memorable night at least.

April's one hand slowly shifted, trailing down Shelby's arms as the pink haired artist spoke initialy. "Very good way." She agreed, slowly trailing the nails along little areas of exposed skin on Shelby's arms.

"I thought you'd never ask~" She purred through a laugh, leaning into the kiss with Shelby and softly sliding her arms down Shelby's sides, enjoying the warm and eager contact. In a manor of minutes April ravenously discarded a whole lot of clothing and performed a whole lot more kissing, among other things, taking a gentle lead to the less experienced girl.

((Fade to black))

Oh so he wasn't a total asshole then, just mostly? That she could probably work with. Probably. Normally she'd probably have gone for someone a little more obviously fluffy, but the fire just had her attention. Like a moth drawn to a flame, so to speak. Except this moth didn't burn.

"So is this your first time ever buying alcohol? You know that you can buy it outside of clubs right? I guess that'd explain your reaction, most people would be expecting a little discomfort at fire." A playful little smirk graced her lips. "Even if it is just a little cozy warmth." She was mostly teasing, he was still hotter than most bodies she came across.

She burst into another short laugh. "Sweetie, I'm more experienced with danger than most people you'll meet." Not that she'd deny danger had a sort of allure, April liked adrenaline. But he wasn't dangerous, at least not to her. Interesting though.

She took another long pull of beer before taking a slow sultry glance across his figure. "An' you're the second brightest flame honey, you just don't know it yet." She purred.

Wow, he really seemed to be strung out from just speaking to a bartender. April was used to dealing with people that were coiled up, on edge. Ready to explode in some way or another, but this guy was taking things to another level. There was also the fact that he was a fire mutant, she'd once heard that fire mutants tended to follow personality archetypes. Maybe this guy drew the short straw and got the volatility? April had been told she'd gotten the hot-headness, or maybe just the hotness? It was a pick up line. It worked.

April took a swig of her own drink while she watched the man, before he flipped her off. She spat out some of her drink in laughter. That got her a look from the cute bartender. Oh well.

She took a few, amused steps towards the man, taking a long pull of her own beer. "Hey sweetie, you know that most people come to clubs to socialise, and so far you suck worse than the teenagers with fake id's, and that's saying something~" Ooooh his drink was on fire.

April leaned on the edge of one of the tables next to his couch and took another amused swig.

One of April's favourite new discoveries was clubs. New York just had so much going on all the time, and her favourite places were the ones that kept a pretty high temperature, clubs tended to absolutely radiate heat. Firstly they were naturally just warm by virtue of being inside, and then there were the hundreds of writhing, intoxicated bodies you found inside, slaves to the rhythm inside. Now April wasn't really a music person, and even if she was club music wasn't necessarily what she'd be interested in.

What the music did to people however, she was a fan of. Everyone was suddenly injected into the vibe and head space that April lived her life in, everything was so bright and interesting, people's inhibitions were a little lower, okay a lot lower.

She generally found that the quieter areas of the club were where she liked to try and meet people. Firstly it was easier to get a feel for them when she could actually hear them, it was generally closer to where the drinks were too, which helped everything a little.

However this time April found something she wasn't expecting. Another fire mutant, and one just brasenly brandishing their mutation right in the middle of the club, using it to intimidate the bar tender no less. She stared for a few moments, lost for words.

It wasn't just that he was similar, even his flames looked similar to hers. New York was the best. As he walked away April got the bartender's attention and leaned in pointing to one of the bottles of ale and batting her eyelashes. She swiftly got serviced by an absent minded, slightly cute bartender. "Don't worry about the hothead sweetie, and thank you." She took her drink and slipped the woman a tip, turning on her heels and leaning against the bar for a moment eyeing the fire-y gentleman.

April quirked an eyebrow with a snicker. "Oh really?~ I think I could probably work out a few uses for those, but I'm guessin' what you were thinking wasn't that simple?"

The line was cheesy, cute and amusing at the same time. April burst out laughing and slowly shifted from holding Shelby's hands to lacing her hands just behind the adorable woman's head. "You're so adorable, can I keep you?" She teased, leaning in for another kiss.

"I like surprises~ Do you mean right here, in the kitchen? I don't think my roommate would like it if we got messy near the counter, sweetie."

Going somewhere else? Okay, April really had no idea where this was going. "Hmmm, well I've already gone somewhere with you, so sure! What'd you have in mind cutiepie?"

April chuckled at little as Shelby nuzzled into her hair, there was something really innocent and sweet about Shelby that she found very intriguing. Assuming the cutie was cool with it, she'd definitely keep up with her after tonight. Even if they didn't get to fool around much, April liked her style and personality a little too much to lose touch. "Well it's definitely nothing bedroom related, I've seen it all, and you're not all that experienced." She winked. "Something art related and cool? Oooh, I've not done art stuff in the bedroom, is it kinky?~" She purred.

April nodded in a mild understanding. "Yeah, I get you. That's good though, one of the nice discoveries I've made is how much people have progressed in those areas~ All the cute gay and bi girls are much more comfortable being out and hit on." She eyed Shelby with a slightly sultry appraisal.

"Ooooooh! You right about the gorgeous thing~" April purred.

"Honey, I fit in everywhere, I'm just too beautiful to ignore." She boasted, leaning her head on Shelby a little before the ding of the elevator interrupted them.

"Mmmm, come into my parlor cutie~" She started leading Shelby to her apartment.

April quirked an amused eyebrow at Stephanie's comment. "Oh is that so beautiful?" She purred, thoughts flitting to getting to know Stephanie over a nice hot meal, somewhere nice and cozy, out of the biting chill and snow. Her eyebrow raised further and was preparing her very intrigued forward response when they were interrupted by another woman.

The first thing she noticed, the interrupter had a small child. The second thing she noticed was that the woman (likely a baby sitter) was also cute. So sue her, she found cuteness in most people she came across.

April stood back a little and gave Stephanie space to fuss over what appeared to be her daughter. She slowly developed a massive grin. She stood with her arms crossed, legs crossing a tiny bit as she gave them some space, amused at the whole scene.

"Hiya Wendy-" April chirped almost absentmindedly as her attention was on Stephanie and the adorable little thing in her arms. "She. Is. Adorable." April punctuated each word, her voice's pitch raising slightly. She leaned forwards a little, not too close. She didn't want too overstep any boundaries, make Stephanie or more importantly the little one uncomfortable. "Hello Malia~ I like your outfit~" She cooed.
