Richard O'Sullivan"No of course you didn't." O'Sullivan said with a smile, "I just wanted to make sure that our relationship doesn't stand between you and your goals." He smiled slightly, "Because I think that you have a real talent and that you should persue it." He had a longing in his eyes, a longing to be with her, but he understood what it meant to be passionate about your dreams. He hoped that her shock meant that they could be together while she did that, but a part of him was waiting for another round of abandonment.

ROXY "Relationship?" She smiled gleefully. "We are in a relationship? But we never discussed this." She said probing and wanting the talk. It seemed as though she had missed the talk since he already was calling it a 'relationship'. She wanted him to clarify on his part as to what he meant by his statement. She was wondering if he was prematurely calling it that for just a title to just wait for what she would say. She blushed at him as s he took a sip of water and waited for his reply.

Richard O'SullivanO'Sullvian began to get flusters, even frustrated as he tried to handle the fact that he'd just bared his soul to her, and now she was questioning it, and acting as though the past month had meant little to her, "I... I guess I meant the relationship I'd hope we had." He paused and drank his water, wondering what she would say, or if this dinner, this whole night was a big mistake and he should have just let their relationship remain sex and conversation as it had been, but he wanted more than that, now he had to ask if Roxy really wanted that.

ROXY "We just never talked about it." She smiled nervously to try to soften his anger with her. "I figured your a guy and you'd just wanted sex and that was it. You never brought this up before so I figured that is all you wanted. Please tell me what you want..." She paused. "I wanted to have this conversation for a long time now but I was afraid to say anything and scare you away." She said afraid of the conversation now. She wanted to have it, get it out of the way, know what was truly happening but now she was afraid because he seemed mad.

Richard O'SullivanO'Sullivan shrugged, "I don't know..." His voice trailed off, "I like you. A lot! I really do, and I don't just mean..." he let his voice trail off again, as it wasn't good to discuss the sex that they had been having openly, "You're a wonderful person, you make me feel like I've never felt before. So if you are willing to give this old Marine a shot, I'd really like to." That was it. It was on the table, now all O'Sullivan could do was sit and wait, and wonder what she would say. She said she wanted to have this talk for a while, but that could go either way.

ROXY "Of course." She smiled glowing and melting unlike she had before. She didn't just look at him erotically but almost as if she was in love with him because she could finally let herself feel because he had shown he wanted her for more than sex. "The reason I wanted to have our talk was because I like you too, but with your profession and the fact that you just got back I didn't want to pressure you and scare you off. So does this mean I'm your girl? Does this change anything?" She asked nervously. She wanted them to continue what was good in their relationship as well as their induvidual work balance as well as now be faitful to each other. She still wondered what dynamic they would have and how it would now change.

Richard O'SullivanO'Sullivan smiled, "I guess it does." He smiled again, "Though with our work schedules, I don't know how this will change things." His eyes shifted down and then up again, "We could spend more time in eachother's places. Maybe even move in together at some point." He didn't know how fast Roxy wanted to take things, or how she wanted to portray their relationship. It was a new era..which had new social rules, O'Sullivan just didn't know them.

ROXY "Wow, move together." She laughed. "If that is something you really want to do. I had no idea you felt that way." Smiled looking glad but a little nervous that because she had not thought about it. It was taboo to live together but they both knew that but so wasn't their life style so they didn't really care about what others thought. "What about my act? It's rather sexual and it's my job to do that for the club, you know that. But it's just an act. Some of those guys can creep me out. And I don't like them but it's my job. I promise to be faithful to you." She said hoping he wouldn't make her stop. She didn't even know how else she could make a living. He seemed like a pretty level headed guy and she was doing it before they met. Also he was part of the mob, he knew the truth, he was always there, and he could now protect her if she needed it.

Richard O'SullivanO'Sullivan shrugged, "It's fine. I've seen what you do... It's fine. You never go too far. Plus I'm usually there anyway." He smiled and went back to his dinner, "Well maybe move in sometime down the line. I mean as you said, it's a pretty serious move." He shrugged, "Come on. Let's not let it get cold." he smiled. It felt as though a weight had been lifted off his shoulders and now he could sit and eat with someone who he really cared about and he now knew really cared about him.

ROXY "Oh yes." She laughed. "Food." She was so infatuated by his words and the topic that they were discussing she had forgotten and didn't really care about food. The two of them began to eat. She was wondering if the would eat this whole time or continue any type of conversation.

Richard O'SullivanO'Sullivan continued eating, trying to get his meal done with fairly quickly so they could retire to a more private setting, discuss the matter further, and perhaps celebrate with some Bacardi, and who knew what else. However he felt awkward sitting in silence was. Finally he looked at her, "How's your food?" He knew that a good wine would go excelently with their meal choice but knew that with the new alcohol laws that it was going to be impossible to get.

ROXY "It is really great, thank you for taking me out. I know money is hard to come by. It also gave us the chance to talk about somet critical things we have been avoiding." She said smiling and being glad things have been going over so well.

Richard O'SullivanO'Sullivan finished his food, "It's fine Doll." He smiled, "Boss has been paying me really well, so it's given me a chance to up my status from dirt poor." He laughed, "I figured I should take you out properly for once since all we really do is... well you know...." He of course was referring to spending time at eachother's apartments, drinking and having sex. Which had been a wonderful experience but not one to be shared in public.

ROXY "Yes, usually the date comes first. But when I want a man I have to have him and I don't care what others think. If he is really worth it there is no reason to slow down the pace." She winked and smiled at him confidently knowing she had to have him. She wanted him still now just the same as the time in his appartment. They finished off their food and waited for the bill. She eagerly waited for when they could leave for the appartment.

Richard O'SullivanO'Sullivan smiled, "So I noticed." He said quickly as he picked up the bill and stood waiting for her to join him so they could go pay the bill and then leave arm in arm as a real couple. He walked up to the register and paid before turning to her, "Shall we?" He asked taking her arm and walking out of the restaurant and out into the chicago night. He started walking towards his apartment which was two blocks from the restaurant.
