Josephine looked down at the table, sitting rigidly and attentive. She wanted to know the answer, but not if it meant spoiling the evening beyond what could constitute friendly conversation. Her eyes searched his face when he spoke, and smiled a little at the endearing shift in his features to that timidity she was so unused to seeing cross his features. Her eyes dipped down to his lips when he moved forward, brushing against his before she turned her head, suddenly shy.

"I think... I think that I would like to know you better."

She said it carefully. As an enlisted officer in the CEU she did not have time for dalliances such as these, yet she was not going to cut herself off from the experience at Caroline's suggestion just because of her mission. There was a lot to do, and she would have time to see Florus again, surely, if he truly liked her.

Truthful and honest words fell from Florus's carefully formed mouth as his grey eyes peeled away from Josephine's beautiful face. He had to decide what to say, something cheesy and false, or just let it all out right here. Jesus, Florus would rather face down that newtype again than face this, why was it difficult? Something about opening up and letting it out, regardless of what may happen was a thing he didn't like. So, Florus gave a light shrug of his shoulders before he set his menu down in front of him, "Well.."

Florus St-Jacques let it hang there before he'd look at Josephine's eyes, "..I don't know, ever since my eyes first fell on you, I'm drawn to you." Briefly those eyes dipped down and away from Josephine, due to Florus's own mixed feelings of embarrassment shyness. At least towards this one subject, Jesus, he wasn't about to tell Josephine he was falling for her head over heels..was he?

Florus could see himself doing that, but yet his mind lingered back to the taste of her mouth against his..and that's when it dawned on him. This was more than a passing feeling, so the voice in the back of his mind said anyways. "I feel like a moth, and you're the flame. I'm drawn to you, because I felt something when we had that simulator fight Josephine." Now, those grey eyes looked back at her as Florus's left hand shifted, his thumb nervously thumbing slowly against the edge of the table, "Something I've never felt before, Chemistry? Is that it?" Sitting up from his chair, Florus would bend partly over the table as the man shifted his left hand. Seeking to brush his fingers along the back of Josephine's head as the Union pilot went to kiss the woman slowly, albeit with a whisper.

"I won't push you into anything more than a kiss, Josephine."

She flashed a lovely smile to Florus, deciding to take his words at face value, even as she squirmed in her seat at his double entendre. She remembered the car, her shameful behaviour, it brought a furious pink to her cheeks she was desperate to fight. She shouldn't do things like that on the first date, should she, she was certain he knew that too... right? Did he think she was lose now, guided by lust for a famous hero, against the opinion of her sisters? She hoped not, for it would embarrass her greatly, to think of shaming herself not only in front of her sisters but him as well. She picked up the menu with delicate fingers, her hands shaking slightly. There was no need to be flustered. It was only dinner. Only... dinner. Right? Right.

"A-Alright, then," She said quietly, "If you don't mind..."

She scanned the menu carefully before placing their order, her attention once more turning to Florus. She looked up at him, feeling the blush rise in her cheeks, asking the question that had been plaguing her since she first received his call.

"Why... why did you ask me here?" she asked quietly. She knew it was a date, obviously, but surely his superiors wouldn't approve of this. They had only just met, and she couldn't help but feel all of this was a little... fast. Odd. She looked to the side, unsure.

Florus had to do a mental check to make sure he wasn't dreaming. Nah, not dreaming, so why not push it a bit? So, as Josephine continued to speak, with that slight tremble, Florus made no attempt to hide the face he was watching her. Her mouth to be precise, Grey eyes looking, taking in the very shape of Josephine's mouth and Florus briefly looked up to her eyes. "Yeah? It was the only place I thought of when you agreed to go out with me tonight. Something beautiful, for a beautiful lady." It was true, and Florus St-Jacques thought it was a shame they were here instead of somewhere a bit more private.

"You know, the dishes they serve here are good.." Florus thought about it for a moment, but the man let his eyes wander, back down to Josephine's perfectly shaped mouth. Down her neck as he'd briefly catch his bottom lip between his upper and lower teeth before letting go as he began to speak. "..However, there's something else I'd much rather eat." His lips shifted, moving to flash a smirk before a grin began to etch it's way over Florus St-Jacques's half sicilian, half french face.

That being said, the man looked back back at Josephine. Jesus, what was it about her? It made him feel...not like himself. He wanted to be near her, or with her physically all the time. Inwardly it made Florus St-Jacques want to retreat to a better place, he was a pilot for the Union. This, these types of relationships weren't good..right?

Whatever, full speed ahead right? So, Florus St-Jacques would have to sheepishly admit this to Josephine.

"I think I might need help ordering something. You have all the class, and I mostly eat on the ship.."

"Likewise, Mr. Nagal," She said, flashing a smile, "I didn't know that Ensign St-Jacques was so well prepared for the evening."

Her eyes found his, brow rising cheekily at the prickly jab, she wasn't going to make it too easy for him, was she? Josephine did, however, like the view of the kitchen as they were lead to their seats, and tilted her head in... was she impressed? When Florus pulled out her chair for her. She half expected him to run it out too far like a naughty child at the very end and have her fall unceremoniously on her ass.

That didn't happen.

She waited until Florus seated himself before she spoke again, a little embarrassed, she brushed a lock of hair behind her ear nervously, "Wow," She said, cursing herself for the slight tremble in her voice, "I didn't think... I mean, it's really nice here."

Florus spoke the last word slowly, making sure it came when Josephine was looking at him. Rich with innuendo, even as his grey eyes held a distanced look to them. Florus wanted to curl his mouth into a frown at the moment, and wanted to leave, but he'd see this through. Was already here, so why not?
As the doors parted, notable first was the soft, warm lighting mingling against the rich wooden floor. At least it bared the look, sound and feel under a foot of wood. To the left was a long, U-Shaped seat. A book and a few scattered papers, one of them a printed newspaper, a rarity on the moon and a few men sat around, enjoying drinks from round, deep glasses. On the right side, sitting on a tall stool sat a man. Shoulders hunched forward, a guitar setting across his lap. A wide brimmed hat was pulled low on his forehead, the caramel skinned face largely hidden save for a wide, toothy grin. "Hola.."

Clasped in his hands was a guitar, fingers working as he briefly looked up towards the couple, once at Florus before turning to Josephine. Perhaps it was the light, but for a moment his eyes seemed to glimmer. Cascading and glowing, he shifted his grin, a far more devious once on his mouth as he began to play, slowly the sounds of Lágrima. However, after a few moments, around an unseen corner came the man Florus St-Jacques previously spoke of. Even though he just touched 50, he barely looked like he passed his 31st birthday. Thankful to his coordinator genes, he was tall and lean and his tailored suit hung to slender shoulders as a long hand was extended first to Florus. "Florus! I was surprised when you called. Have a table ready for you two downstairs, and is this her?"

Florus St-Jacques offered his best, albeit fake, smile as he offered he clasped his right into the man's left to give it a firm shake. "Steffen Nagal, this is Josephine Eberhart." Motioning with his left hand, Florus introduced her to the older male, who offered her his widest smile. "Ah, the pleasure is all mine, Ms. Eberhart. So why don't you two follow me? I found the perfect bottle of red wine for you..I think you'll like it."

At least from the look of the opening, it looked small, until one walked around the corner and down the stairs. It opened up into a much larger space, twice the size of the floor above, and thanks to a choice in lighting, tiling and walls, looked huge. Recessed lighting dotted the isle ways, but it was mainly hanging pendants over a section of booths Steffen was walking towards. The man wanted it to all be very warm, and inviting, the walls adorned with black and white all the way around the room as he finally stopped in front of a table for two. An easy eye sight line was presented to the kitchen across the floor as Florus stepped to a chair and pulled it out for Josephine.

Always the gentleman right?

"Is it mockery, though?" She asked, before blue eyes found him, "You did help win an important victory..."

She was cut off by his announcement, and, with a look that almost bordered impress when he opened the door for her, stepped out into the chilly night, rubbing her forearms gingerly against the breeze. She stepped forward, preparring to enter the establishment with more than a little trepidation-- suddenly the feeling of this date became even more real for her. Still, his last comment provoked a laugh from her. Sweet and soft.

"You want me to order?" She laughed softly, "But I don't even know what the food's like here." she paused then, when her eyes found his face, suddenly subdued, and looked away from his face then, "I... wouldn't mind, if you want me to."

Florus frowned at the corner of his mouth as he shifted in his seat, a hand width of distance between them. Felt like a mile in his mind, but he'd note this uncomfortable, deflated feeling and save it for when he'd need it. Need it to stir himself into anger, but, that's for a different time and place. "You know, I don't consider myself anything special, not a hero like I've been mockingly called." That was a minor annoyance, enough to rustle skin and get his blood rushing, but Florus was too indifferent to do anything about it.

"Here it is." He saw a little ramen shop and knew they were there. Even before the car began to slow down before pulling over to the curb. Once it stopped, Florus opened his door and stepped out quick enough, however, he did come around to Josephine's side of the car and opened the door. Waiting as those grey eyes watched the woman carefully to exit the automobile before the door was closed behind her with a solid thunk.
Even as Florus buttoned up his suit, a single button he'd walk beside Josephine, although a step or two behind her. Much like with the door, Florus St-Jacques would open the door and give a light smile to Josephine. He did have some manners after all, didn't he?

"After you, but I do have to admit..not quite so good at picking out food. So I might need some help, if you don't mind?"

Still, she did agree to this date and she did want to go-- to have fun. The sisters had not been afforded much of that since joining the military, let alone since arriving to the moon. And while vexing, Florus didn't seem like a bad person. She needed it, the escape. The wine at least. A blush flushed the skin at her neck as he spoke, and she shook her head with more timidity than she was used to.

"You keep saying things like that..." She breathed, before blue eyes found his, and she worried her lip softly, "Where exactly... did you say this place was, again?"

She stared at him for a long time, taking him in. He was indeed a war hero, and some part of her was in a state of disbelief that she was even sharing a car with such a person at all. If the night passed and she woke up still at Side 3, that would be more normal, wouldn't it?

Deflated. Whatever.

Florus shifted his grey eyes to the side before finally turning back to Josephine. Those pupils watching her lips, and only that, even as his hands slipped along her thighs before curling up her back. Moving slowly with spread fingers, his big hands enjoying the feeling of her dress under them with another sigh. "We'll see, won't we? For now, a little dinner and wine, then some dancing." Finally those eyes were turned away, looking out the window as his hand drifted lower. Past the small of her back before it finally settled with a slight squeeze of his hand.

After he realized what he did, Florus dropped his hand to his side before frowning at the corner of his mouth. The trembling legs didn't go unnoticed, and Florus thought she wanted him to continue, so he'd stop. Still, he wanted to kiss her again, and gaed at Josephine. Eyes gleaming with his desire, as did all parts of him, to be with her. Still, it was a date. So Florus relaxed in his seat and simply watched the woman's face.
"You know everybody is going to stare yeah? Only because they're jealous of how beautiful you look."

God, that sounded so stupid.

Still, his words registered some warning in her mind, and she gasped against his lips, clutching at the fine shirt he wore until her legs trembled astride him, her core hot and wet and eager astride him.

"Y-You went through all the trouble to make reservations," She panted, unable to think through the wanton haze his touches brought to her mind, "We have to at least honor them..."

In truth she was scared, of the way Florus awakened a flame within she didn't know existed. Of what she might do with that feeling. If it was real or an illusion. She shifted against him, sliding deliciously against him in her attempt to maintain some semblance of decency, "We... can stop by your place later, if you like..." She said artlessly, innocently.

Still, Florus brought his left hand around. Sliding down her side before it curved to run along one of those legs as he did his best to push down what he was feeling. However, when the chance presented itself, it was pushed outward with the softest voice he could manage. "Or..I can cook you dinner.." Finished with a grin, Florus's right hand gave another squeeze to supple flesh as he simply enjoyed the motions of the woman on him.

At least to the man he didn't want his own body to react, but it had already begun to do so. However, her tongue was met with slow brushes of his own, inviting her to taste more of him at her own pace and whim. Granted, Florus has kissed other woman before, however, something about Josephine simply stirred his soul. Made the man feel weak in the stomach and nervous ever time she was around him. God, that couldn't be right, could it?

Her voice sounded foreign to her. Delicate. Mewling. She didn't quite care for the way her voice broke when she said his name. Her breath hitched as she felt him bite the soft crescent of her lower lip, mouth opening to allow his tongue to slip into her mouth, giving him possession of her as her own tongue danced with his, meeting his kiss tentatively. Shy and desperate. She felt his strong hands trail down the gentle curve of her sides before sampling the supple flesh behind her thighs, his hands slipping easily beneath the high slit of her gown, ushering her into his lap, settling her there as she whimpered into his mouth. He felt hard against her, sturdy. Her hands dragged down the long plains of his chest, gripping his shirt as she quivered against his body, biting her lip when she felt his hot breath on the tender flesh of her exposed neck.

"O-Oh.." She breathed as Florus spoke, barely registering what he was talking about as he touched her. She saw his eyes dip to her chest, nipples hard and visible against the tight fabric of her dress. Embarrassed she pushed herself a little further into him, the pillowy orbs pressed salaciously against his chest. A fetching pink blush coloured her cheeks, missing his gaze linger on her face. His words snapped her attention immediately back to him, and she studied her face with mixed shock and haughtiness. She knew they shouldn't, on a first date, in a car, she barely knew him. But he had kissed her before, and her body betrayed how much she wanted to do just as he asked. Her back arched as she felt his fingertips trail along the creamy flesh of her back, making her hips jerk astride him, a lewd wet patch blossoming upon the thin silk barrier which separated her bare flesh from his lap.

He taunted her again and she leaned forward, brushing her lips against his shyly at first, unsure, testing. Trepidation for their setting, for their acquaintance before her lips opened, tongue darting out to taste him gingerly. She hand't mustered the courage to kiss him long and deep the way he had her, but she wanted him, and it showed in every honest, betraying move of her body. Every sound, and every blush. What would her sisters think?

Whispered soft as Florus focused his grey eyes on Josephine's face, before he leaned in. Teeth biting for a moment at her bottom lip before pressing his mouth back against hers. Hungry to continue tasting those lips, as his tongue slipped out, to slide into her mouth before he reached his hands down. Florus's long fingers tracing down Josie's sides before he moved, squeezing as they slid around to the back of her legs, he went to pull her into his lap.

Florus would watch Josephine as he sat back against the chair, head leaning up to look at her before he began to slide one hand down her back as the other curled up to her neck. Aiming to pull her head down softly to his so he could give her another long kiss, taking his time to admire the feel of her against him. The feeling of her body pressing against him only furthering his desire for the woman as his right hand trailed along her upper back briefly before the man pulled his lips away. Kissing at the side of her neck with a slight laugh, "Friend of my father came here from Side 3 to open up a "real classy joint." Been bothering me to come and see it, supposed to be pretty great.."

It took everything he had to keep himself still, and his mind relaxed with her like that. Still, it wouldn't stop him from lowering his eyes to Josephine's ample chest, before slowly fixing upon her lips, watching them for a moment. "Kiss me, Josephine.." It was a dare, but the man loved to see how she'd react, even as his right hand began to move. Fingers teasing a downward trend before beginning to climb up her back.

"..Unless you don't want to, we still have a few more minutes by ourselves.."

Josephine allowed herself to be led from the quints' apartment. She spared a glance over her shoulder, at her sisters before she crossed the threshold. Caroline's wide smile made her feel much better about Elizabeth and Philippa's steady, disapproving stares. Susan it seemed had fallen asleep on the couch. "Thanking me?" She asked, "For what...?"

Looking ahead she was ushered to that automated car, looking about the night of the city with piqued curiosity. Artemis was very beautiful, and the busy evening lights made everything seem so much less quiet than Side 3. Her eye caught a dark skinned man smiling at her, face unreadable beneath opaque glasses. She couldn't help but hold Florus a little tighter as she looked away quickly, stepping into the car gracefully.

She knew Florus would have been punished for the incident back on Side 3, but she hadn't known it would be with confinement to the brig for the whole journey. She couldn't help but feel a little guilty. She tucked a long lock of hair behind her ear, the tips brushing again over the milky white of her shoulder. The sheer white lace of her dress barely covered her body from him, and Josephine felt the same as she did back in that hospital room. Exposed and vulnerable. She shouldn't have worn Susan's clothes...

She was about to respond when she felt Florus' large hand raise her chin delicately to face him, her eyes finding his, wide and surprised. Was he going to kiss her again? Did she want him to? She hadn't realized she had slid closer to him in expectation until his lips already claimed her mouth. She cried out softly, hands sliding up his chest to clutch at his shirt, body trembling against his as she pressed close against him, soft, ample montrals of her breasts pushing warm against his chest. The sensation was powerful, and her tongue danced with his, not satisfied with the chaste touching of lips. She was breathing deeply when she felt his question, the caress of his breath against her lips. She tilted her head up, attempting to meet his mouth again.

"Yes," She breathed, hand sliding down his torso, "Where... where are we going?"
