Making Contact
With Nicholas being such a pain in the ass about the stuff with Romanov, Tessa would have to set up a date. Nicholas didn't understand that things like this took time. If she moved too quickly Romanov would get suspicious. The family was suspicious enough, borderline paranoid, and Tessa had to step very very carefully.

She dialed his number.

	He took her picture and turned it around so they both could see it. "Anya supercharged this thing. It does stuff I still can't figure out, but the video feature I know. Gotta get those embarrassing moments the family Christmas party." (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Does your sister normally do things like that to your possessions?" She studied the device. It looked like an ordinary iPhone. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Only when she can get away with it," he joked. "She considers it one of her life's missions to keep track of me and make sure I'm okay. I wouldn't be surprised to find out one day that this is really a one-way pocket transporter like Star Trek." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Little sisters can be a royal pain in the ass, but Anya and I have always gotten along fine. Maybe we wouldn't if we were raised in the same house on a 24/7 basis, but what we have is better than most families, I think." He put the phone away and resumed eating his melting ice cream. "Are you getting along with your roommates?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You're lucky to have a good family," she said as she ate some ice cream. "We get along fine. We've all known each other for a good amount of time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Misha frowned a little. He thought he remembered her saying she'd only been in New York for a year and didn't really know anyone, but he could be wrong. People did form connections very quickly. "Believe me, Anya routinely tell me how lucky I am." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I knew two of them from high school," she explained. "We ran into each other on campus during our first year and decided to live together." She smiled. "And you enjoy it. I can tell by the sound of your voice." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No telepathy here," she said in her defense. "I don't want to read minds. I doubt much makes you blush." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Hrm...She answered his unspoken thought and he clearly hit a nerve by not letting it go by unnoticed. "It's okay, you know. I'm not one of the fanatics." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The thought of being able to know what another is thinking is just unpleasant," she said. It was bad enough seeing their worst fears. She smiled. "I'm curious, what would make you blush?" Time for a subject change. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-06-09 10:57 pm UTC (link)
	He let her change the subject because he could see it bothered her. But he had her name and now her picture, so maybe he could ask around a little and see if he could get her some face time with Professor Xavier. "You know, I don't think I've blushed since I was thirteen and realized my friends thought my mom was hot. Scary, but hot." He laughed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ng_weaponx 2009-06-09 10:59 pm UTC (link)
	She chuckled. "I've seen pictures of your mom and have heard of her. The Black Widow is very beautiful and dangerous. It is no surprise your friends thought that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-06-09 11:09 pm UTC (link)
	"She's gorgeous," he said without a hint of self-conscious blush. He was long over that adolescent embarrassment. "I'm glad she likes me. I've seen what she does to people who cross her and I never want to be one of them. Dad can be scary, but it's a different type of scary." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"She's very beautiful," Tessa agreed. "Of course she likes you. You're her son. Unconditional love." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	His ice cream gone first, odd since he seemed to be the one doing all the talking, he tossed the cup and plastic spoon in the trash and leaned back in the chair. "Do you need a ride home tonight?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ng_weaponx 2009-06-09 11:38 pm UTC (link)
	She smiled. "That would be nice and I would appreciate it." She lived on the other side of Brooklyn and had been taking the subway to work. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Misha stood as well. The chair was pushed in. Neatness counts.

The walk back to where he parked seemed to go a lot faster this time. The bike appeared to not have been molested while they were gone, which was good because he didn't want to explain to Anya that he was distracted by a redhead and now needed to repair the engine.

"Jacket?" He held up his leather coat in offer for the ride.
