Darius smiled slightly down at the girl. He shoved his hands into his pocket, his mind ringing with a thousand thoughts as he looked from the blonde to the two guys he’d just knocked out. He had thought he’d left the life of violence behind him but like all things it seemed as though it would just fallow him around forever. He’d responded far too rashly, if he had simply thought things through a little more this wouldn’t have happened. Luckily it didn’t seem as though the two guys were friends of Raven, but it did seem as though she was scared of him. Not an odd response considering he’d just taken down two guys who were both twice her side in under a minute. He let a smile slide onto his face and tried to soften and relax his manor as best as he could. Most people didn’t realize it but even when your not looking for it you absorb a lot of knowledge based on what a person is doing. An aggressive stance or look often makes people afraid, a happy or relaxed one the exact opposite. He closed his eyes for a second as he felt time seem to speed up and return to normal, his adrenaline had been running so fast that it slowed everything down. He opened his eyes again and looked into Ravens with a smile on his face.

He felt a vibration in his pocket and fished his phone out without breaking eye contact with Raven. He looked at the message and number from Andrea and sent a quick reply back. Okay, I’ll meet you there. I’m looking forward to it, seems like you always seem to make my day better

Darius shoved the phone back into his pocket as he thought about what to do, it seemed as though he might as well try and make up for the sudden and rude appearance. Brylen wouldn’t be happy if he left her sister here so the best course of action would be to take her with him. He drew the keys out of his pocket and gripped them, his car wasn’t far from here and they would be away before either man woke up. He extended his hand to the girl and said with a smile on his face.

“I’m a friend of your sister. Sorry about all that, I thought you were someone else and kinda freaked out a bit. I’m about to meet up with your sister and some friends for dinner, why don’t you come. Seems like a better choice than staying here for these two to wake up.”
