( Taking the cue from the other man, Aventurine simply offers him a smile. )
Just what I've been angling for this whole time. If I win, I get a kiss from the handsome stranger who's offering to teach me pool. ( And not, surprisingly, offering to have him up against the wall of the last bar they were at. Which is excellent restraint on his part, Aventurine thinks, and adjusts his expectations from the dark haired man accordingly. ) If you win-- well, you can have anything you want from me. Anything.
( Including getting him to leave the older man alone. But Aventurine would hedge his bets that's not on the table for this evening, and he always gets what he wants. He just needs to know if whatever he has to offer is worth Aventurine losing or not. )
