O.o

Chance grins as he's got Destiny beat. However, though he may have physically, she still had something up her sleeve he wasn't expecting.

As she grabs hold of his feet and starts to tickle him, his eyes widen. Something like a muffled shriek comes out of his lips as he shoots up from his lounged position. Not many things bothered him, but it was only a very few people that knew his feet were extremely ticklish.

"Ack! You- Just - Destiny!"

His hold on her is immediately loosened as he flails to get away. One foot shoots out from her grasp, almost whacking her in the head. Moving around too much, the couch rocks as he loses his balance, teetering precariously on the edge of the cushion.

And with a final cry, he rolls right off the couch and onto the floor, lying on his back between the couch and coffee table. His face was red, mostly from trying to hold in his laughter, but out of breath, he doesn't even have the strength to get back up.


"Sounds good to me." Gage walks with Sapphire out to her car and slides in the passenger side. The ride was fairly quiet - but much of their time spent together was that way. But even in the silence, it seemed they said so much.

Arriving at the restaurant, Gage walks in beside Sapphire, feeling just a little out of place, but trying not to let it show. Once seated, they're able to order, and he fiddles with his glass of water, his eyes roaming the room where other people were dining.

Before the food comes, his gaze lands on a certain table in the corner. He recognized two of the men - they were officers who had watched the group of prisoners alongside the roads. And they had spotted him. Gage remembers they had been his least favorite - no mercy and always making cracks about the men working. Even now, as their eyes met, Gage can see them snicker and gesture in his direction, making their women look too.

Looking back down at the table, Gage's cheeks gain color. He doesn't say anything to Sapphire though - it was too embarrassing. Crossing paths with those men... they were now on equal territory. But Gage was the one who didn't really belong. All the other people in the restaurant - they didn't know him from a hill of beans. But those two... they did... and they knew he didn't really deserve to be here.
