Girls' Night [Sweet Princess Iris]

[kennedyk]

Kennedy's laid out several blankets and pillows on the distressed hard-wood floors of her top-floor apartment. It was a long day at work, but thankfully a productive one. Several customers came by to commission her after visiting her booth at the art festival, something she'll call a win. Now that there's a nice open space on the floor free of her canvases, paints, and as clean as it's been since she's moved in, Kennedy pops a big tub of Neopolitan ice cream into the freezer and sets a bottle of wine in a bucket of ice to chill. She picked up everything from the market on the way home.

"I hope Iris doesn't mind eating on the floor..." she worries, but furniture such as a dinning room table really seemed like a waste of money when she needed the space for her art. She shrugs, figuring her new friend will be so excited, she'll love absolutely everything. Laying a box full of jewelry-making supplies on the floor along with their stash of beads from the festival, she pulls out her notebook, quietly working up a quick sketch of the man Owen she met at her booth as she waits for Iris.

"That sounds... odd," she says, handing her the smart phone she'd bought and never put any apps on.

"Umm... I like them with muscles," Iris blushes. "I don't think I have any other requirements..."

[kennedyk]

"It's fun! I can send you little pictures and stuff when I'm at work and you're at work!" She takes the phone and loads the app, quickly showing Iris how to use it.

"Wow, you're easy," she laughs. "Not easy easy, just, around here? Lotta buff hot guys. Nice might prove difficult though."

[littleredsiren]

"That sounds fun!" she grins, snapping a picture of Kennedy and sending it to her right away.

"Nice is the most important part though," she explains, quite seriously. "I don't think I can handle someone not nice.'

[kennedyk]

"You goof, you just sent me a picture of myself!" she laughs. Still, she takes a screenshot of it and saves it. "Aw I look cute."

"Okay, super nice. Kind guy. And hot and muscles are a bonus. I can work with that. Eli got muscles?"

[littleredsiren]

"That's why I sent it!" she giggles. "Everyone should know when they look cute."

Iris bites her lips, blushing. "Yeeees...."

[kennedyk]

"Well then!" Kennedy holds up her phone and snaps one of Iris, sending it to her. "Too cute!"

Kennedy beams. "Is Eli hot?"

[littleredsiren]

Iris laughs happily. "We're just going to snapchat pictures of each other all day, aren't we?"

She lets out a sigh. "Very. Are you trying to set me up with him?" she laughs.

[kennedyk]

"And any food you make, please. I'll snapchat you hotties at the boardwalk."

"I mean, he's on the list! I've got a huge list in my head of nice, hot, well-muscled guys, thank you very much. I keep a good inventory."

[littleredsiren]

"What about cute puppies and kittens I see during my day?"

"Okay," she grins. "I'll have to start up my own inventory for you then..."

[kennedyk]

She nods. "I'll accept those pictures too."

"Oh! Add funny to my list please."

[littleredsiren]

Iris pulls a little notebook out of her purse and starts scribbling in it. "Anything else?"

[kennedyk]

"What a nerd!" Kennedy laughs. "Funny. Hot. Nice butt. Great body. Smile, I need a handsome smile. Cute when he's not being hot."

[littleredsiren]

"I am not!" she pouts. "I just wanna make sure I don't forget all of this. Oh, add a nice smile to my list too, please. And the cute thing. ...Andthebuttthing."

[kennedyk]

She purses her lips, thinking. "Yeah, super nerd."

"Nice smile, cute, and a nice butt, Iris you minx," she taps her head with a smile.

[littleredsiren]

She sticks her tongue out at Kennedy. "Yeah well, you won't laugh when you have to come ask again what I wanted."

Iris shakes her head, flushing. She's not normally so forward about what she wants and it's killing her. "Stooop. I just like nice looking men, okay."

[kennedyk]

"Um excuse you? You're talking to the girl who has visions and paints them from memory days later, thankyouverymuch," she preens.

"Who doesn't, girl, own up to it. If you see someone you like the appearance of, let me know, alright? It'll give me an idea of if you have a type or not."

[littleredsiren]

"Yes, well, not everyone has your memory. No making fun of us mere mortals," she laughs.

"I can't tell you that!" Iris can feel herself blush. "That's embarrassing!"

[kennedyk]

"Alright, alright, use your hottie notepad to your heart's content," she grins.

"How is it embarrassing? They won't know, it's just me."

[littleredsiren]

"Becauuuse! It means I have to admit I have a crush," she says, giggling awkwardly and ducking her head.

[kennedyk]

"Wait, you mean you currently have a crush or when you do find someone attractive, that means you'll then have a crush and be too embarrassed to admit it?" she squints, trying to figure this out.

[littleredsiren]

Iris fumbles, dropping her coffee on the floor and jumping up. "Oh gosh! How clumsy of me!" she manages to squeak out, rushing off and getting napkins.

[kennedyk]

Kennedy watches her friend, mouth dropping. "OH MY GOD, YOU HAVE A CRUSH, DON'T YOU?"

[littleredsiren]

"Kennedy! Hush!" she hisses, mopping up the mess and frantically avoiding the question.

[kennedyk]

She's still staring at Iris with wide eyes, completely not bothered by the mess, because to be fair, Kennedy puts these floors through hell and back. "You're so obvious, oh my God!"

[littleredsiren]

"I am not!!" she squeaks in a huff. "I totally don't have a crush!"
