Girl's Night Out - For Kate

[blackb3ltbarbie]

Phoebe was revitalized being in the city. It was amazing what a few weeks in New York City can do for a girl after months on an island. Phoebe was taking advantage of it and she planned on dragging Kate with her. Who knew when they'd get this opportunity again in a city that didn't sleep. Instead of dressing for clubbing, Phoebe put on her jeans and a backless top. While she loved dressing up there were times when she loved dressing down just as much.

She picked up Kate in a taxi (god was that nice to be able to use those again) and headed toward A small jazz/blues club that had live bands but they could talk, too. It was a place that Phoebe had frequented a lot when she lived in New York. As the cab pulled up to the establishment in an old brick building she grinned over at Kate. "It's down in the basement and you almost feel like you have to say a code to get in like in the 20s."

Comments

Phoebe motioned the waitress over and ordered a bottle of whiskey with two glasses. This talk would require it. She was actually very happy for Kate with the caveat that she didn't want to see her friend hurt again when he left or she did. "I'm going to guess Neal with the going home with you dream." Phoebe made a Girl Scout hand gesture even if she'd never been one. "I solemnly swear that I will promise to rain down unicorns, rainbows and kittens on him instead of a shovel."

It would also explain the volume turned down on the flirting with the waitress.

That makes Kate snort, a little rough, but definitely amused. "I would pay to see Neal wrapped in unicorns, rainbows, and kittens." Her mouth twitches, fingers rub against the grain of the table. "Hell, I'd probably pay to see Neal wrapped in shovels. With how he looks in a suit, I'd say it'd be worth it."

No matter how much she tried to tell herself it was, though, the suit and the date, were not the problem.

"You know back in San Francisco I could literally blanket him in unicorns and rainbows." Phoebe's own lips twitch as she said it. "I even know a leprechaun that could be a real pain in the ass to him if I asked."

[girlsolo]

"Back in Old City, I'll see your unicorns and rainbows with Bigfoot, a mermaid, and raise you an annoying flying guy," Kate cracks, but then she's back to remembering the way Neal threaded his fingers with hers when she found him in the Sanctuary.

Which leads to her remembering the date, and her reaching for the whiskey because seriously, what the fuck? Blindsiding a girl with a suit and flowers is so not fair.

[blackb3ltbarbie]

Phoebe watched Kate pour a drink but didn't say anything. She just took the bottle when Kate was done and poured her own glass.

"Annoying flying guy?" She laughed, "I think that pretty much trumps pain in the ass leprechaun."

[girlsolo]

"Yeah, he's like less than a foot tall. Drives me batshit. Pulling my hair and calling me Katie." When he wasn't calling her worse things, but she's not bringing that to this table.

She sips the whiskey and gives Phoebe's expectant look a little shrug. "You expecting a blow by blow? 'Cause I gotta say, there've been a lot of blows." Yeah, she meant it just like that.

[blackb3ltbarbie]

Phoebe snickered at the comment about blows, "I wouldn't expect anything less." Then her snicker turned into a full blown laugh as a thought came to her. "You wonder if hookers ever get as bored with their jobs as we do? Pun intended."

As much as she loved and had a great variety with her advice column, there were still moments of same shit, different day.

[girlsolo]

"I never get bored with a hooker's job," Kate deadpans, and then smirks. Hard. Blow jobs are the ultimate power trip, and even if Kate's just as happy (sometimes happier) to be on the bottom side of that, there are days giving up control is the last fucking thing she wants.

Like, pretty much every day with Neal right now. She still has no idea what's going on in his head. At least Sawyer gave it up in his eyes. But Neal's so good, she can't read him. Or maybe she's just too scared to try.

[blackb3ltbarbie]

Phoebe laughed, "smart ass. That wasn't what I meant, but point taken."

[girlsolo]

Kate grins, drains her whiskey and pours them both another. She doesn't drink that much these days, but there's nothing to stop her tonight.

She nudges Phoebe's glass across the table to her. "To blowjobs. Giving them, and bringing the boys to their knees."

[blackb3ltbarbie]

Phoebe clicked her glass against Kate's in a salute with a grin before she took a deep drink. "Amen, sister."

She realized as she said that, that Kate was an odd combination of friends with benefits and sister. (not in a Flowers in the Attic way) But Kate got her a lot more than Piper, Prue or Paige ever would. Sort of in the way that Cole got her though Kate had never seen that dark side of her.
