(No title) Fingers drumming against the plush counter top, Felix's gaze dropped down to the pair of cards in front of him. As the dealer went around the table, asking the typical "hit or pass", his 'lucky charm' cradled his ear and whispered to him.
"So.. is there any chance I can take you home after this?"
His eyes glanced over to her; they traced the outline of her jawline to her collar bone to her lips.
"Hit or pass, sir?"
"Hit." His finger tapped the the table. The dealer obliged to his response, dealing him another card, but his gaze didn't falter. It remained still, patiently taking it's time to notice every detail this persistent woman had to offer. Then, before moving his eyes back onto his hand, he whispered back a response, "Sure."
The card he had been dealt was an unsurprising 2 of hearts.
The rest of the game didn't stray far from their first round. Excluding a couple of losses, Felix slowly accumulated small pool of chips that ultimately added up to around 3k. Feeling bored with the situation, he signaled to the dealer that he was leaving the table. She nodded, finished shuffling the deck that was in her hands, then swiftly exchanged his chips for cash.
A few irritated faces stared back at the pair as they prepared to leave. Some even took it upon themselves to loudly whisper their unsavory thoughts, but none of that mattered to him. Not until they began prodding at the woman as well. Sexist and hate filled comments dripped from their saliva heavy mouths, forcing anyone within the area to listen in.
Felix grunted loud enough to garner their attention. Then, with a pair of venomous eyes, he coiled his arm around the woman's waist and led her away from the table. Once they grow far enough from the table, he muttered an soft, "lead the way."
