"Well... Lets get this sha-bang on the road~" I do a fist pump and smile to my friends.

I chuckled.
"Yeah. So, what do you need me to do... 'Boss'?" I asked, smirking.

"Well... All we really need is to arrange the food," I say and then suddenly stop dead, blushing like mad. "GAAAAAAH!!! Don't call me that!!!"

I smirked. "Whatever you say, Boss..." I picked up one of the serving platters. "Just put it on the table?"

There is another knock at the door. Mercy, long hair loose today with a leather and feather ornament bringing out her Amerindian heritage. Her arms are full, carrying a box that contains several plates of different kinds of cookies and a large cheesecake. She is wearing a denim skirt and a button-up silver gray tunic. She glances back to where Oilcan is pulling the Tow-truck up the street. NO turning back now. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I flush more, "Um... Right over. " I walk out to show him where, my cheeks staying hot as I do. Really wish he wouldn't call me that. Its one things for me to call him it, he is my boss after all, but its also an endearment. One he doesn't return, so he really shouldn't be using it. Especially not in that tone, oh, oh, oh god! My heart is all fluttery! Stop that heart.
I look up at him and flush deeper, "Right there." I point as I look back down. Oh, god at this rate I'm gonna start thinking about how pretty his hair is... Or his eyes, he has some of the most relaxing and deep eyes I've ever seen. They make me just want to drown in them... GAH!!! Stop. Thinking. These. Thoughts!
I give Neku a weak smile as I giggle nervously to myself.

Angel walks to the door and opens it, "Hello miss... Here for the festivities as well?"

"Hi. I have an invitation for Thanksgiving..." She stands awkwardly, her arms too full to shake hands or anything.

Angel smiles to her and steps to the side, "Welcome... We're almost done with the preparations... We'll be eating soon."

A scent hit my nose and I smile big, "PUPPY!!!" I come racing into the entry way and wave. "HI!!!"

Mercy: Oh, thanks. Um, where should I put this. I wasn't sure what else you were having for dessert. I hope Bailey's Cheesecake is OK? And the cookies, of course. My name is Mercy. What's yours? -- she looks around. She has never met most of the people here, she isn't even sure why she was invited or why she accepted the invitation... And she had no idea it would be a place as fancy as this.

"Its also an endearment. One he doesn't return, so he really shouldn't be using it. Especially not in that tone..."
She started mumbling to herself again, but something was weird about it. It was almost as though the voice were flickering in and out. I shook my head, sliding the plate down onto the table where she'd shown me. Our eyes met.
"Stop that heart...!"
I started to say something else, but she was continuing to ramble.
"I feel like... I can drown in those eyes..."
It wasn't like hers were any different. So open, for someone who hid everything. Why was she even saying this?
I could feel myself blushing, and I looked quickly away. God, I couldn't...
No. No. Just... just a moment.
I coughed.
"Uh... thanks, Nami. You... you didn't have to... to say that..."
Why had she said that? And why was she suddenly referring to me in third person...?

Angel nods and takes the Cheesecake, "I'm sure its fine." He nods and says softly. "And I promise... I'm the only one that bites." His voice is joking and so is his expression.
"Its okay to jump in where ever... And its Angel by the way."

"Of course I did," I frown and then asks. "Wait...What did I say?"

I flushed a little. "The thing you said about my eyes. Well... all the stuff you just said, but... y'know. That's the one I was talking about." I wasn't going to meet hers again. My hands were in my pockets, and I was looking off to one side. "A-anyway, I'd... better go for some of the other stuff..."

Mercy: "So, where is everybody?" She looks around the large living room but doesn't see anyone munching appetizers or having drinks. "Am I late? Are they already at the table? I don't want to interrupt if they've already started.." she sounds horrified to think she has come in with dinner already in progress.

What the hell? "I did NOT say that, Neku," I say as he retreats. "I only... Know what... Never mind." Maybe its an after effect from the crossing.

Angel shrugs, "They're about..." Look down at the excited blond child next to him. "She seems to know you."
