Behind the Red Curtain

"yes of course" Richard got up picked up his hat and walked out with the two of them.

Robert walked into the restaaurant, pausing to look for the group. He smiled when he saw them and walked over to their table without taking off his three-length coat.
"Sorry I'm late. I had to sort out my affairs. Already leaving?"

Aurora turned to Robert, "Yeah, we have the meeting to attend with the patrons in about-" she glanced at her pocket watch, "-45 minutes. And I'd rather not be late."

Garrett nodded, "Yeah, the patrons wouldn't be too impressed. Mourning or not, we all have to at least appear to have ourselves together." He looked away, suddenly sorry for having said anything that could bring up thoughts of Jonathan.

"come on you guys, we better go... going on with our business is the best way to handle things" said Richard

"I guess..." Aurora said, feeling the tears build up again. "Let's just go."

*Richard opened up the door and let her walk thorough allowing the rest to follow as well* "should we get a carriage or walk?"

"Yes, of course." Aurora said, looking around for one.

Robert hailed the nearest carriage he could see, telling the driver the location of the meeting. He extended a hand for the ladies to get in.

[I said I had to go back and get dressed first.]

"Actually, just drop me off at my place. I have to get dressed." Aruora said, leaning forward to tell the driver. "Thanks."

Robert flashed her a smile, then settled back to watch the street pass by.

[Sorry - just count it as Robert being inattentive]

[It's ok, haha]

Aurora stepped out when they arrived. "Okay, I'll meet you gentlemen at the meeting."

bleargle fidge!!!!

*Richard looked over at Robert in dismay...* "plural fudge? whatd you say?"

(( okay i feel like im goin everywhere to tell people this, sorry if uve read this before in another rp... ill be in Mexico for spring break this next week so feel free to control my character... as before please dont have me engaging in any homosexual acts or kill my character off.. that would be greatly appreciated 😉 see you later all))

[Ok.. BTW, whoever said that isn't Robert... Trickster is Robert, durr. Lol.]

Aurora walked inside her small apartment and went straight to her drawers. She pulled out the long, black dress. She slipped it on and put her long hair in a bun. She washed her face, trying to prepare herself for eveything that was ahead. She glanced at her watch, knowing she had to hurry. She grabbed her cloak and went to find a carriage to take her to the meeting.

She finally arrived and walked into the small brick building where the patrons usually met. She was the first one there, so she sat on a step outside to wait for the others.

The horsebeats on the cobbles announced Robert's arrival. Tossing some money to the driver, he sprang down from his seat and bowed in his most artistic way.
"My lady," he teased, "Do you require an escort?"

Aurora grinned and took his arm, "Of course, kind sir."

Robert led her to the table that the patrons were at, and pulled out her chair for her. He decided to stand.

Aurora sat down, and looked around. She put her hands on her lap and tried not to fidget.

[Hey, it's your call! You're running the show!]
