Narcissa had the house to herself. Normally she went to hotels to get what she needed, but she'd been debating back and forth all day about inviting her new favourite to come visit her at the house and finally given in to the urge, calling the agency to see if Thor was free to pay her a visit and have a sleep over. Not meeting people in a hotel made the fact that she was paying for sex feel a little less despicable too. Thor had been so nice about it.

She did dismiss the servants for the night, then spend an hour getting ready for him to come over. Maybe Lucius would die an early death and one day she could have lovers who didn't cost money to invite over for the night. Narcissa got out an expensive bottle of wine and some chocolates, waiting in the parlour and doing her best not to chew her nails while she waited for Thor to ring the bell.

Narcissa took the flowers from Thor and accepted the kiss on her cheek, smiling at him. "Thank you," she said, sniffing the flowers as she took Thor's hand in hers and led him into the parlour. Even if Thor was being paid to be here and be sweet, it was still nice to be given flowers. "White roses are my favourite, actually."

She propped them up on the table, then poured them both a glass of wine. Narcissa picked up the envelope of cash she had waiting beside the wine and chocolates and handed it to him. "This is yours," she said. "I thought we could have a drink first. I have a family friend who's a bit of a wine collector and she sends over bottles occasionally." She took a sip of her own drink, settling closer to Thor. "Did you find the house okay?"

Thor had forgotten that he was getting paid. He stared at the envelope for a moment, then took it from her and put it in his blazer pocket. He took off his blazer and put it on the back of the couch, looking back at her in his fitted t-shirt and trousers. He wanted to look nice for her.

"It wasn't too hard to find. I have a gps." He admitted, taking the glass of wine. "I've never had wine before. Can you believe that?"

Narcissa laughed, eyes moving over Thor's chest in his t-shirt for a moment. "Stop making me feel old," she said, smiling at him. "Never? You must have at least had wine coolers. I used to sneak them all the time when I was a teenager."

She gestured for him to take a sip. "Try it. If you don't like it, I've got other things. I think there's some vodka in the freezer and I know there's scotch and brandy in the study. Probably some whiskey too."

"I've mostly drank beer and vodka, if I'm being honest." Thor told her with a grin. "I like beer. Wine always seemed so sophisticated and I'm just... not." He laughed. "And you're not old. You're too gorgeous to be old, Cissa."

Thor took a drink of the wine and hummed softly. "It's fruity." He told her, resting a hand on her thigh. "I like it. You have good taste."

"That must be why I like you so much." There was nothing wrong with flirting with Thor, right? They were going to have sex and his hand was on her thigh. Narcissa took another sip of her wine. "I'm glad you like it. There are chocolates too."

She leaned in, kissing Thor softly and sliding her fingers against his cheek. "So what are you?" Narcissa asked. "If you're not sophisticated. I want to know more about you."

	Thor laughed at her question. "I'm not sure what I am. A normal boy who is trying to put himself through school and majoring in art. That's about it." He slid his fingers into hers on his cheek and smiled, leaning in to kiss her. "I was afraid you wouldn't call again." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Of course I called," Narcissa said, kissing Thor back. "I had a really nice time with you last time. I just... I don't usually do this that often." She didn't really want to tell him she lived with her son who was his age and her ex-husband's daughter.

"I liked being with you a lot, though." She squeezed his fingers gently, kissing him again. "Tell me about your art. What's your dream?"

	"I'm a painter. But, I keep getting forced into doing graphic design." Thor told her, brushing their noses together, grinning. "People don't appreciate the original art for anymore. Unless it's spray painted on a wall somewhere." He pulled back and took another sip of her wine. "I always feel like I should have picked a better career to go into once I finish."

"No," Narcissa said, shaking her head a little and almost melting when Thor brushed his nose against hers. "Follow your heart. Trust me, nobody knows what's best for you except you. I speak from experience."

She took a sip of her wine too. "I did what my family thought was best for me, even though I had my doubts. I have a good life, but sometimes I wonder about what might have been if I'd fought against them harder." Narcissa brushed her fingers through Thor's hair. "Maybe you could show me one of your paintings someday. I'd like to see them."

"You are the only person who has ever told me to follow my heart." Thor told her, running his fingers up and down her knee. "Most people tell me I need to have a substantial job or no woman in her right mind will want me."

"You could always restart your life now." Thor told her, shrugging. "What's holding you back? You're beautiful and smart and sexy. You could have anything you want."

"Women who would reject someone based on their job aren't the sort of women you want wanting you anyway," Narcissa told Thor, leaning into his touch. "I'm sure it won't be easy, but that doesn't mean following your heart isn't worthwhile."

She looked down at her glass of wine. Thor wasn't meant to be her therapist and she was allowed to tell him she didn't want to talk about it and then just move on because it wasn't like he would be here if she wasn't paying him, but she wanted to keep pretending. "My ex-husband is a very powerful, very controlling man," Narcissa told him. "I only got a divorce after his pregnant mistress decided she wanted to be his wife. And I take care of my son and the mistress's daughter. I wouldn't say Draco and Lucy hold me back, but they're a responsibility that keeps me here, looking after them." Narcissa looked up at Thor, giving him a tight smile. "If I was smart, I would have listened to the instincts telling me not to marry Lucius when my family arranged the marriage."

Thor shook his head at that and frowned. "No. That doesn't make you any less intelligent. If your father was stupid and arranged a marriage for you, that's not your fault. It was kind of like your responsibility. And you were probably young, right?"

He shook his head and kissed her softly. "You have children. That's fine. But, I'm sure they wouldn't want to hold you back or let you let your husband run your life." He rubbed her knee. "What are you doing tomorrow evening?"

"I was sixteen," she said, nodding in agreement. "The same thing happened to my sister and she managed to run away from it. So did my cousin. I was just too scared to take the risk." Narcissa shrugged and then took a long drink from her wine glass. "No one knows what's right for you except you."

"Ex-husband," Narcissa said, because the ex part was important to her, even if Thor was only here because she was paying him to be. Even if Lucius still controlled a lot of what she did, he wasn't her husband anymore. "I don't know. I don't have any plans."

	Thor took Narcissa's hand into his own and kissed at her neck softly. Her ex-husband was an idiot who didn't deserve to live. How could he let someone as beautiful and as wonderful as her go? "I'm not supposed to do this and I could get fired for it." Thor told her, pulling back to look her over. "Would you like to go on a date with me?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I --" Narcissa blinked at Thor in surprise. "You want to go on a date with me?" she asked. "A real one? One where I don't pay for you to... keep me company?"

She wanted to say yes, but she was worried too. What if Thor was only interested in her because of her money, now that he'd seen where she lived? But maybe that didn't matter. She wanted to go. "I'd love to." Narcissa smiled at Thor. "Where are we going to go?"

	Thor hadn't thought ahead. He looked around her house and felt intimidated, but shook his head. "I don't know yet. I don't think I can afford what you're used to, but maybe you'll like what I can afford." He smiled softly at her. "How do you feel about diners and greasy food?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I haven't been to a diner in years," Narcissa said, smiling at Thor. He was offering to pay for their first date. And he was going to take her somewhere Lucius wouldn't have spies. "I think it sounds wonderful."

She brushed their lips together, still smiling softly. "I haven't really had greasy food since I was a teenager either. It'll be like a new experience for me."

	"Everyone needs a little greasy food in their lives. Don't deprive yourself." Thor told her with a smile, then kissed her softly, letting his lips trail down her neck. "What else did you want to do, Narcissa?" Thor asked, kissing her ear. "You've got me for the night. We can do whatever you want. Change into our pjs and watch bad reality televison?"

	cissi 2013-03-27 08:00 am UTC (link)
	Narcissa laughed at that, running her fingers through Thor's hair and setting her wine glass down. "I don't have a television," she admitted. "I read for entertainment most of the time." She kissed Thor again, humming against his lips. "But we could still change into our pajamas and cuddle together." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	thorfin 2013-03-27 08:08 am UTC (link)
	"Well, fair warning." Thor told her with a grin. "I normally sleep naked. So, that may or may not be a good thing for you." Thor pressed their lips together and kissed her deeply, then pulled back. He stood. "Do you want to show me around your place?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Narcissa quirked an eyebrow at Thor as she got to her feet. "I've seen you naked before. I won't mind seeing it again. It's an excellent view."

She wasn't sure if she should show Thor around, in case he got intimidated, but Narcissa nodded, slipping her hand into Thor's. "Downstairs is this room, the study, the billiards room, the dining room, another, smaller, sitting room, the library, the conservatory and the kitchen." Narcissa brightened, leading Thor down the hall to the conservatory at the back of the house, through the library. She opened the door to the glass-walled room and smiled. "These are my plants."

	Thor was intimidated by her house, but he'd been intimidated before he'd even walked into it. He took a look around the conservatory and grinned at her. "They're beautiful." He promised her, breathing in their scent. "Are you a green thumb, Narcissa?" (Reply to this)(Parent)
