Move Your Ass! (Callie.)

[Cameron Osiris]

“Callie! Come on, I gotta take a dump!” Came Cam’s voice, after having knocked on the shared bathroom door for the third time. Seriously, that girl could take a shower until all the hot water was used up. It wasn’t her singing, because that was actually pretty good, and considering him and Mia were wanting to start a band, they’d need a singer. He’d have to ask Callie about it later, right now his mind was on the most basic part of a human’s life. Meta or not, it still had to happen.

Running his hands through his hair, Cameron sighed, leaning against the bathroom door. This was the worst part about sharing a bathroom with a woman. Everything else was pretty good. Callie was funny and had an in your face kind of personality because of how bubbly she was. They got along famously, even after she had caught him making out with Ravyn and he had seen her dancing around in her underwear in the common living room. Not that he minded either of those things so much...

Cam banged on the door again. “Counting to ten and if you’re not out, I’m going in there anyways.” He took a deep breath. “Onetwothreefourfive, six...”

[Calliope Gallo]

"The communal bathroom calls your name, Cammie-Cam~" Callie called as loud as her voice allowed her to through the clear sound of running water., steam billowing through the break underneath the bathroom door. While ignoring him for the most part, she tried her best to remember where she was up to in the lyrics of the song she had been singing (loudly). The fourth time he knocked pulled her away from her thoughts and made her frown.

Counting?

She shut the water off when he hit six and she realised he probably wasn't joking. It wasn't a situation to play chicken with, because he had proverbial balls of steel and Calliope doubted that a swift heel-kick would be strong enough to deter him. She quickly slid the shower door open, reaching out to find...

Nothing. Her side of the towel rail was empty!

"Oooh. Did I leave my towel in my room again?" She paused to mentally scold herself. It was probably resting on the corner of her bed again... "Could you please get it for me?"

[Cameron Osiris]

Sighing, Cam turned on the spot to go to her room. “You’re really good at forgetting! Did you know that!” He said, shaking his head. Busting into her room, Cameron searched around very quickly, turning back to the hallway. “I don’t see it!” He said, before stepping further into her room, a sinister grin on his face.

Of course he’s doing what you think he’s doing – rummaging through her underwear drawer, which also doubled as what seemed to be a sock drawer. Smiling, Cam picked out the ‘comfiest’ pair and then went back to his room, grabbing a clean dark blue towel of his own.

“Here, I couldn’t find yours,” he said, putting the undies in between the folds of the towel, “take mine.” Cam opened the door a smidge and threw the towel into the bathroom like some kind of bomb. “Please hurry up!”

[Calliope Gallo]

"I knooow. I'm sorry!" Still, Calliope shrugged as she turned in her place. While she waited she ran her hands through her hair a few times, collecting all the strands to one side so she could draw as much of the water out as she could with just her hands. Her fingers fell through the curling blonde locks, messing it about so it would fall naturally on either shoulder.

She turned her head when he said he couldn't find it. Her eyebrows instinctively narrowed in suspicion, but she let that pass. She had forgotten it in the first place after all.

The door opened just enough for a towel to come flying through, closing once more and allowing a rush of steam to fall through the break. "Thanks! See? You don't always have to be so-" Callie paused abruptly as she picked the towel up off the floor and something fell out. Was it her own fault for extending the invitation into her room?

"Never. Mind." She sighed. At his instruction to hurry up she was quick to dry herself off, throwing on a loose grey shirt that had been cut away across her abdomen. One of the sleeves fell off her shoulder as she dropped down to wrap her hair in the towel.

A thought crossed her mind, but initially she was tentative to act on it. Ehh, why not? At the thought that he might barge in on a potentially sensitive subject, she threw on the black and grey striped boyleg underwear she had brought into the bathroom herself. His choice would not be viewable today! As for the thoughht? Well, the words practically fell out of her mouth; "Why don't you just go to a nearby room if you need to go so badly? I don't think Ravyn would mind..." Her teeth bit down on her tongue lightly, smiling with such joy and intrigue at the idea of teasing him that it seeped into her tone of voice.

[Cameron Osiris]

Really, Cameron could’ve left her without a towel at all. It would’ve been only too easy to say he couldn’t find it, and just stand and wait for her to try and shield her nude self on the way to her room. It would highly entertaining, and slightly arousing, though more of the former.

“You’re welcome!” He said as she cut herself short. Cameron only laughed as she changed her mind, and then stopped laughing as his gut wrenching, threatening to let lose right here and now. But seriously, what was wrong with the granny panties he gave her? It seemed every girl had a pair.

His face fell when Ravyn was mentioned, but hey, at least Calli couldn’t see his reaction. “Now now Calliope,” he knew she hated this, “it’d be rude to destroy anyone’s toilet but my own. Besides, if I take a few too many steps we might have a different problem, one that would be your fault and therefore your problem to clean up.” Who said he wasn’t convincing? “So hurry your ass up!”

He leaned against the door. “What’re you taking a shower in the middle of the day for anyways? Do you have a hot date or something?”

[Calliope Gallo]

The way her full name fell off his tongue started to make her blood boil. Callie was quick to start drying her hair with the towel as he continued to talk. Something about how long he was waiting. Oh right, he needed to use the bathroom; the thought had slipped her mind completely. Well, she made a quiet move through the small speech to take the roll of toilet paper and huddle it underneath the town she was holding. She threw it over her arm in a small heap with her hand underneath.

Callie rested her hand on the door knob for a moment or two longer, allowing him to yell and ask questions to the door instead of her face. "No dates for me, any visitors are almost always yours." She said, opening the door finally so he could see her. She feigned sadness with a pout and ran her index finger from her eye down her cheek. Invisible tear.

"I was dancing this morning." Callie explained, using the towel in her hand to rustle her hair dry as she walked out of the doorway. He had been very short about the small mention about Ravyn. Despite the use of her name, she hadn't forgotten that. "What did you guys do now?"

[Cameron Osiris]

Stumbling back a bit as the door opened, Cam regained his balance before spinning on the spot. He smiled at the gesture she made and shrugged. "What can I say? Everyone wants me," he gave a shrug and made his way into the bathroom, turning his head over his shoulder, "even you." And with that final announcement, he shut the door and set to work.

Callie was always dancing. It always made Cam smile. "What do you mean?" He asked, since he had no idea who she was talking about anymore. His hand went automatically to the roll, and fell away like a dead weight. He growled, his fists bunching. No other feeling of helplessness was also so equally shameful.

"Callie! Give me back the TP!"

[Calliope Gallo]

Callie raised her hand as if to physically interject, but the door just about closed in her face. "You got me. That's my dream! But you never have the time for me." She snickered at her own words before starting to walk back away from the door. And she waited, humming a little tune for herself until his voice broke through the sound.

"Oh, did I bring that with me?" She asked, feigning a lack of knowledge poorly, "Maybe this is my way of cornering you in an 'I'll give you back the TP if you go out with me' kind of thing." Callie withdrew the towel from her arm, dropping it to the floor to hold the toilet paper properly. She unfurled the beginning of the roll, placing it down beneath the door so at least he'd have to reach for it.

"It's because I want you, baby. You know how it is." Her teeth sunk into her tongue at the remark, amusement evident in her voice.

[Cameron Osiris]

No! Damn it! He was meant to have the last word! Cameron sighed, wondering why he hadn’t made time for his roommate. “It’s probably because you’re right under my nose,” he said. The most obvious things were also often the best hidden. How that made sense, he wasn’t sure, he just accepted it as truth. “We could always make up for lost time,” he said, sure that she would love such an offer coming from a man on the can.

“Well the roll was missing altogether...” Wait what? She wanted him? Huh, why was that not surprising? His eyebrow quirked up at the white square made an appearance beneath his door. Good thing he was tall and didn’t have to reach too far. “There are better ways of convincing a man than this,” he said, as all of three squares of asswipe tore into his hand.

Cameron sighed. “Just give me the roll, otherwise I’ll get a red ring around my ass.” He couldn’t tell if she was serious or not, but once he got out of here, she was going to get a lot more attention from him. “I am free Saturday night though.” He smirked. He was a free man, no lovers. "You want to go dancing?"

[Calliope Gallo]

Calliope couldn't help but laugh at the offer to make up for lost time. She threw her free hand over her mouth to stifle the sound. From the other side of the door there was no way for him to see her face, so there was no real clear way for him to figure out if she was joking or not. Her eyes had always been a kind of dead give away.

She picked up the towel from the floor and folded it over her arm a few times to make it even. She started to walk in the direction of his room so she could leave it there, but his voice drew her back to the door.

"Fiiiine." She opened the door quickly and allowed her hand to come into view as she tossed the roll in his general direction. No idea how well her aim would go, but at least it would be nearby. She wandered into her room quickly to retrieve a brush so she could fix the curling tangled mess on her head. She walked back to the common area, running it through her blonde hair and she would finally respond to his offer with; "How much of a dancer are you, Cammie-cam?"

[Cameron Osiris]

The roll hit him in the knee, but that was fine. After scrambling for it for a few moments, he was happy to have it at all. He finished up and washed his hands, picking up the pair of underwear she decided not to wear, playing with it as he stood in her doorway.

"I can dance, it's not a problem," he said, flicking the gitch in her general direction. "Since you don't have a real date, I may as well make that dream a reality," he said, winking at her as she brushed her hair.

Who didn't love being asked out by a dude who just took a huge crap?

[Calliope Gallo]

Callie watched the door open again and she instinctively took a step back, just in case she might get hit in the face with the smell. Her hand flew up to catch what he threw towards her. She shook her head at him; not today~

She tilted her head slightly as he winked at her, the smile on her face growing a little wider as the moment passed. "How many people are you dating?" Something about the realisation made her laugh. Callie flicked the hairbrush towards him once, a little water flying off in his direction.

"Are you offering a pity date?" That was just speculation, of course.

[Cameron Osiris]

There was spray in the bathroom and he did use it thank you very much. Cam wasn't expecting her to wear the underwear he threw at it, he'd rather just not have it sitting around in the bathroom. Although it would've been a good alternative to toilet paper.

"I'm not dating anyone," he said, sticking out his little finger, "pinky promise." He touched his neck where a water spot hit him. Ever since he broke up with Ravyn, he hadn't dated anyone. Oh sure he was interested in people, had made out with one guy in particular, but that wasn't dating. That wasn't serious. Not that he had anything serious in mind.

"It's not a pity date, it's a real date," he put his arms around an invisible person in front of him and began to sway, "so legit, you'll feel like dancing." Cam started humming and spun around the room with his 'dance partner'. Come on, how could she say not to him?!

[Calliope Gallo]

With mild hesitation, Calliope reached over and briefly touched her pinky finger against his. Not a shake by any means, but it was some kind of attempt at a connection. It would do for now.

"-Dancing, dance the night away." She attached the poorly crafted lyrics of a certain song to the end of his words, laughing as he started dancing with an invisible partner. After taking a small amount of time to read the situation and weigh up the good and bad outcomes of this, she decided; why not?

Callie moved in tandem with him, taking hold of his hand and raising it up so she could fit into the invisible partner's place. But she lowered her eyebrows, blue eyes narrowing on him slightly. "Fiiine. Just be careful where your hands go." With that she pulled away again, pressing both hands to his shoulders to force some distance.

And she shrugged; "Y'know, unless you get the vibe that I want you to."

[Cameron Osiris]

"Oh please," he said, "I'm a perfect gentleman." Okay, he couldn't say it with a straight face. A devilish smile passed over his lips. "Well, most of the time." He raised an eyebrow at her, before shrugging, his hands perfectly on her hips and nowhere near her ass, but he was thinking about it now that she mentioned it.

"What's that?" He asked, before dipping her to the 'music' he was humming. It wasn't any particular tune. "Is that a 'yes' I'm hearing?" He asked, threatening to drop her if she disagreed. Hey, at least he wasn't feeling her up. Not yet anyways.
