Owen stared past Aphrodite when she fiddled with his clothes. It was so evident she was only trying to console him. He figured because her effort was so obvious that meant her words had less truth to them. He forced himself to look her in the eye and produced a half smile for her benefit that he nonetheless could not make touch his eyes, “Of course.” He tried to mean it for her. Tried to shake the mood that had settled over him. He knew he’d acted like an ass the whole night. Accusing his friends then turning into a sour puss. Owen bent to kiss her cheek again. “Don’t ever change, Aphrodite.”
Holland stepped up and offered his hand to the somber Owen. When the blonde reached for it, Holland grabbed his friend by the forearm and pulled Owen under his arm. Holland smashed Owen’s face into his collarbone and kissed his forehead. “I can’t wait to tell Julianna how cute your sad face looks.” He joked as Owen pushed Holland’s face away and wiped dramatically at his forehead. Owen glanced around to see if any of the patrons had noticed that idiotic display and straightened his suit jacket.
“Save the kisses for your wife.” Owen was grinning for real though. Apparently Holland knew a little better how to cheer Owen up than his wife did. Just act ridiculous.
Owen followed Sairus outside. He frowned when Sai offered to drive, “I’m not drunk. I can drive.” But he held the keys and the valet ticket out for the other man to take. “I don’t care where we go. Just make sure you stop at the liquor store.”
While Aphrodite leaned against him, Holland took cash out of his wallet and tossed it on the table for the server. He was more than relieved to go home. His nerves were spent. He felt uncomfortable.
Holland slung his arm loosely around Aphrodite’s shoulder, pulling her towards the door as he stuff his wallet back into his pants. “I didn’t want to deal with any of this shit tonight. Don’t worry about it. Owen will come around. This is just his, I don’t know, creative process or whatever. The wereleopards can wait for another day.”
Taking Owen’s advice he brushed a kiss against the corner of Aphrodite’s mouth as the walked. “You’ve done enough. You did good.”
