Fall as prey [OPEN]

[Caj]

"What shall the wager be?" He spoke to his friend. A greedy grin sitting ear to ear on the boy's lips. "Heads or tails?" A devil's grin was never the end of antics. What exactly did he have planned? Teeth shone under his lips while he greeted the opponent with a charming smile. A quick flip and the coin hit his arm with a loud slap of his hand. "Heads or tails?" Tension and suspense both made sweet love to form the atmosphere that he proceeded to breathe in like some sort of cannibal. Tasting the sweet air though dampened with sweat and the tell-tale sign of smoking. Coughs, hacking and the air around was almost difficult to see in. What was such a boy doing in a place. What with his pink hair with faded blond dye, he stood out like a sore thumb, or a shark in the water. "Come on, go big." His voice chided gently, longing nothing more than to take a bite out of the fleshy and desirable fish before him.

"Odds of head and tails are one to one, this is hardly fair." The bulky figure near him groaned and stroke at his rigid jawline. Only further did the man's grin grow. Delicious, watching the prey squirm from the hook. "One head and one tails already, how could I make any guess with stakes this high?" The reddened cheeks only further chastised the man's desperation. Perspiration. A keen eye on him of golden color. A mocking glance that called him a coward. Witnessing the relentless cockiness that just made the man want so much more to wipe the smug look off his lips. Smack the man right in the ego he was so full of. "I'll wager the same it's been, boy."

"Pffftt.. what a coward. NO self confidence. Heads or tails?" He gleamed. Too sad the man had no faith in himself. He could have won some big bucks, maybe. Unfortunately the burly man seemed to be deterred by the never-ending being of arrogance that was Cajetan Amato. Chuckling to himself, he flipped the coin experimentally, eying the man before him. "Come onnnnnn~! Pick already!"

The man slammed his fist on the table. "I can't believe you even caught me up in this game." "-Too late to back up now." "FINE! Heads!" The attitude that boiled made Caj grin more. Oh he was getting testy. "Right. Heads is your daughter gives me head, right?" Oh the man's face was priceless. Someone was going to get punched and that someone held a coin. "Chill out old man. I'm joking." Caj flashed his pearly whites again, before the coin was flipped for real and slammed on his arm once more. A resounding 'Thwap!' sound in the air. "Oh let's see." The hand removed and he was laughing. "Oh seems you guessed wrong, pal." His shoulders shrugged and he chuckled deeply. "Looks like I'm getting tail instead~."


The older man rose his fist and Caj jumped back, out of his seat. "Whoa! Take a joke, old man! JeeeezA fist flew and nearly knocked the boy over, if it weren't for the fact the boy had ducked just to feel the wind blow. "You little SHIT!"

"Hey! That's how the game is played." Caj shouted back, dodging under a table a few seats over. The old man raged until the kind security guided (dragged him out). A sigh, a laugh and the boy simply grinned about it. After a few minutes, he crawled out and dusted his lap off. Lucky for him, the money was on the table. Collecting the treasure, he shoved it in his pocket and hummed, off to the bar section, where he ordered a drink.

It was one of Dimitris rare days for relaxation and like all good alcoholics he wanted to spend it drinking,bar hopping, drinking some more and finally throwing up in the toilet(That last part was in fact NOT optional). Though he had to say he was kinda sad that he was getting SUCH a late start at it all, it was after all past four in the afternoon and he wasn't even mildly buzzed. In fact through no fault of his own, he had yet to have a single drink(How dare he call him self an alcoholic). Because even on his off days he still had some work to do if he didn't want to come back to an office of back files and missing reports, one would think his clerk and assistants would take care of that in his absence, sadly that wasn;t the case. He refused to hire anyone based purely on skills... They had to be more then moderately attractive. In fact that last part was the some total of the requirements needed to land a job in his office. Hence the poor filing, and missing reports. All in all he was happy with his choices, if not with the resulting work load, because how could a man not be happy when surrounded by all that eye candy? It made Dimitri smile when he thought how people wondered where Caj got his taste for women.

"AHHHHHH" SPLAT. His random musings where rather rudely interrupted by a large man being thrown face first into the street by what could only be described as gorillas in suits. He looked from the man laying on the ground to the now retreating backs of the beasts and smiled. It seemed like this was one lively place, and lively places not only had good drinks, but free entertainment more likely then not. So with a renewed skip in his step Dimitri entered the what ever the hell it was and made a b line for the nearest bar. Daddy was thirsty, and he would get his drink. Though he had to wonder if this establishments owner had gone crazy, because standing behind the bar was another hairy gorilla of a man, instead of the suple young woman he had hopped for. He could only sigh and make a slightly less joyful approach and sat down with what could have been mistaken as a pout. "Ill take a scotch and soda." Simple, to the point and most of all no flirting, which kind of made him sad.

As the bartender grunted a reply, he felt his trained eyes scanning the area around him, looking for a card game or two, hoping a face would jump out at him and maybe looking to score a little bit of eye candy. Sadly he eyes fell on someone he honestly didn't want to deal with right then Caj. His good for nothing, never make anything of him self nephew, honestly the boy was no longer a boy but a full grown man who behaved as if he was still in grade school... It drove Dimitri crazy on the best of days, and today well, today was not among the best of days.Quickly he shifted his gaze back to the bar, put his drink to his lips and took a long pull, enjoying the feeling of alcohol burning its way down his throat. He hoped he didn't catch Caj's eye, but he doubted he would be missed. The boy had uncanny eyes and Dimitri had yet to take off his trade mark hat... He had a feeling he would be spending the night with a living migraine.

Well after his little episode, Caj was left rather bored in a bar that he normally did visit. Usually there was a gambler's daughter or someone's sister to look at, but tonight was just a sweaty man fest. Booorriinngg. From across the room he could feel the eyes of a particularly buff man eying Caj as if he were woman. Dumbass drunks, just because he had pink hair didn't make him a woman, there was just no helping it. Seemed he'd have to dye his hair blonde again, soon. Wipe away that feathery hair with some coloring and voila he was even more attractive, but that wasn't possible. The wallet was slid into his pocket for a moment and Caj seemed to hum over a few thoughts. His little mayhem had been caused and now he was left a bit bored.

Or at least he was until a familiar face stepped into the scene. Oh yes, the man had tried to hide, but those little efforts were to none to Caj. He'd never understood why, but Caj knew himself to have super vision. The slightest detail to someone else was beneath a magnifying glass for him. It had to be genetics and at times it could be irritating, though not tonight. A big old grin snuck up on his face and like a snake, he slithered his way up behind the man. Then, as if being best buddies for the longest time, Caj would grab the man by the shoulders with a one arm and hug him. "HEEYYYYYYYY!" Yep, it was purposely obnoxious. Why would his uncle dare try and avoid him? It wasn't right to avoid his favorite nephew.

He expected to be threatened but that was okay, because in the process of the hug, he slid Dimitri a fifty and just beamed about it. "Ehh I owed you how much again?" The money owed was for a mix of college funds he had owed his uncle as well as a few gambling investments. No wonder his uncle couldn't stand him sometimes (though in Caj's mind he never believed it). He hadn't intended to be a bit over zealous as he had been, but too late he was already doing his natural Caj thing. It was odd the relationship he had with his uncle. Most of it dealt with his uncle's unreasonably high hopes for the pink-haired bastard child (he'd overheard him say that and then Dimitri flat out said it to his face). "Now then! How are you, my dear Uncle?"
