The Rainbow After the Storm (Heavy Rain RP.)

[GBHORROR]

Madison felt her face redden at his comment about brown eyes, and she simply shook her head, smiling. She then furiously shook her head. "No, no. You should take the bed. The floors really uncomfortable and probably won't be good for your ribs." she said. She laughed and shrugged. "I probably won't get too much sleep, anyways." she said, looking at the floor.
She looked back up at him. "Good idea. I won't be long," she said, standing up from the bed and heading to the bathroom.
When she was done, she dried herself off and got dressed, exiting the bathroom. She felt a lot better now; a lot more refreshed. "Your turn," she said, rubbing her still-wet hair with a towel.

"No," Zayden admitted. They were getting close to the center of town now. "Which I thought was odd. Didn't you think she had some kind of odd attachment to him?" he asked, icey blue eyes searching for somewhere to park. "She liked him a lot more than she did me, that was for sure." he said, though he didn't exactly care. He pulled in front of a random little shop. "This alright? This is the center of town, so if she's not here we need to search the back streets and such." he said.

Jayden smiled and shook his head. "I'm not taking the bed. So I guess either we'll both sleep on it or you're just going to have to let me be the gentleman here and take the floor. " he protested, walking into the bathroom.
Was she blushing when he commented about her eyes? Yeah...who wouldn't? Once done, he stumbled over to the counter, examining himself in the mirror. He brushed his teeth and shaved, smiling at himself. His hand found one of the many bottles of cologne he had brought with him from Boston. He sprayed himself with it and smiled, walking out. He walked past the bed, tossing his shirt back on and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge. Turning to her, the agent asked, "Hungry? I can order room service?"
~~~~~~

"Yeah." Carter acknowledged, tapping his fist against the glass. "I have noticed that. It's kind of...creepy. She even called him 'Normy' one time when we were alone." He laughed and looked out the window again. "What if she stole the ARI to add to her 'Normy' shrine she's made in her basement." he laughed. Wouldn't be the first time Jayden and Blake discovered a shrine...only he feared it might end up with another gun in one's face if they weren't careful. "Yeah, it's fine," he commented, rolling out of the car and looking around. It smelt so good. Blake eyed the bakery next door with a grin. They had the best bread. "Alright. I suggest we split up, we'll cover more ground that way." he demanded, not even checking to see if the other had input.

(( Sorry. Got to go. I'll be back soon. ))

[GBHORROR]

(That's okay!)

Madison laughed slightly, unable to help it, but she nodded. She didn't mind to share a bed with Norman, honestly.
She was laying on her back on the bed, her hands behind her head and her eyes glued to the ceiling, thinking of..well, anything that came to mind, really. She looked up when she heard the click of a door and Norman's footsteps, and she raised her head up slightly, observing him as he walked. "Uh, yeah. That'd be good," she said, letting her head rest back down on her arms.

Zayden shook his head. That was kind of creepy. To him, something was always a bit..off about the girl. Who acts like they're about 7 at age 18? Unless that was all part of her charade. He laughed slightly at his shrine comment, rolling his eyes. "I wouldn't be surprised if I have to be honest," he said.
He exited the car, shoving the keys back into his pockets and adjusting the collar on his button up once again. "Alright," he said, though he wasn't given much of an option anyways. "Which way do you wanna go?" he asked, not really caring which side of the city he got.

Norman gave a glance back at Madison again and smiled, walking over to the bed and laying down with her. "Or we could just cuddle for a bit." he suggested, placing an arm over her. He could do this all night, he thought, snuggling up to her. He wondered what she was thinking. He hoped she wasn't...offended or anything that she was in his hotel room. He smiled and moved a pillow under their heads, humming softly to himself and to Maddy. He hadn't been in a relationship in so long...he just...he was afraid he was rushing into things too fast. Jayden flicked is eyes over to her and smiled. No. No, not for Maddy. If she felt it was just right, he should too.

He snuggled into her more. He really cared for her...a lot. He didn't want to use the word love, but it came really close to it. Norman chuckled and rolled over, kissing her before he turned back to the phone. "What do ya want, sweetie?"

"I'll go...I'll tell you what, Hendrix. It's getting dark, and it really looks like a heavy storm is coming our way...again." Carter announced, looking around. "The city is too big for us to search it all. What if we start with the places we know. " he suggested, placing a hand on his neck. "Jayden told me you all met at a karaoke bar? Well, what if we go there. Someone's got to know where she could be or has at least seen her." The lieutenant told, walking down the sidewalk. "And if she's not there, we'll start from there," he shrugged, "Maybe someone there knows where she's staying...." he mumbled.

[GBHORROR]

Madison didn't complain, instead laying completely still, her eyes closed in contentment. She didn't say anything. There was nothing to say during a moment like this. She shifted around until she was even closer to Norman, if even possible. They were basically as close as two people could get. She hadn't even known him for that long, and yet..she felt so comfortable around him. From time to time, her thoughts would drift to Ethan, however..but for now, all her mind was on was Norman.
"Uh," she began, snapped out of her daydreaming. She shrugged. "I don't mind, really. I'm not picky," she told him.

"Good idea." Zayden said, slowly turning on his heel and beginning to follow him. "Yeah, we met her there." he said as he gazed at a neon 'open' sign flashing on a shop. "It was..odd, really. She kept staring at us and getting closer until she finally introduced herself. And then she started playing the piano really off-key." he said, obviously noting his distaste for the sound of GB's piano playing by his tone of voice and the wince he made.

[LadyGalleth]

Norman looked back at Madison and chuckled. "Alright." he responded with a shrug as he picked up the phone. He quickly hit the one, and as the person picked up, he began absentmindedly spitting out their order. What to get Madison? Chicken fingers! He remembered she was really quite found of those. "Hi, can we get..." he smiled as he mumbled something into the mouth piece. "Yeah...room 306. Thanks," he replied with a quick hand as he hung up, turning around to see Madison again. She looked like she was thinking. He turned back to her and held onto her some more, biting his lip. "What are ya thinking about?" he asked in a soothing tone, gently wrapping his arms around her again. "Anything? Nothing? I like to just lay here and let my mind take ahold of me sometimes," he admitted, kissing her again. The food would be there in a few minutes. He laid back down and laid his head next to hers. He loved spending time with her, as much as he could. "Like it?" he asked, motioning around them to the room. "Nice, right?"
~~~~~~~

Carter noted Zayden's wince with a nod, but just kept walking forward. "That's uh....stalker-y." he stated bluntly, placing his hand on the door to the bar. "Come on...let's go," he motioned inside. "Maybe we'll get in and done before this down pour hits."

He perched himself on the stool closest to the door, preparing to make a quick get away. With a quick look around, he slammed his fist against the wood bar. "Nah, I don't see her." he commented, thinking this was a terrible idea. By now, she could be half way across town, or on her way to another state! He checked around again. "Should we ask someone?"

[GBHORROR]

Madison shrugged nonchalantly. "Nothing, really." she said. After a second or two, she then smiled fondly, moving her head so that she was looking at him. "Well, actually, I was thinking about you. But that's about it." she said sweetly.
"Oh, yeah!" she said, nodding. She wasn't lying, either; for a hotel room, it was actually pretty nice. The whole hotel was, as far as she could tell. "Is it expensive?" she asked curiously. Most hotels that were nice like this were costly as well.

Zayden walked inside, his hands shoved into his pockets. He looked around; it was the same as it had been before, though he expected that, of course. The brunette glanced over at one of the waitresses cleaning one of the tables. "Why don't we ask her if she's stopped by here?" he asked. It was kind of unlikely, but..
"She's kind of hard to miss." he said.

[LadyGalleth]

"Me?" Jayden echoed with a smile as he moved his hand on her again. "What about me?" he asked with a grin as he blinked, looking into her brown eyes again. He, then, chuckled. "All the stuff I have to go through in all my day to day life, it's great to just finally relax! Especially with you," he told again as he pulled her closer to him. He just laid there and listened to her talk. The only thing is mind was on was her. Norman smiled and snuggled into her again. His mind popped with ideas, but pushed them all aside to think about Madison. How could it even be possible? Finding a girl like her in such a dreary place like this. He was beginning to think that all that Philadelphia had to offer was dead bodies and rain...but now he was starting to think that there was a rainbow after the storm. He smiled and kissed her again, brushing his lips across hers and chuckled at her question. "What? Expense? I, uh, I don't know really, the FBI pays for it all." He sat back and gently began to hum. "Tired? What ya wanna do?"
~~~~~~~~

Blake looked up at Hendrix as he talked, nodding swiftly. "Alright," he added as he moved over to the waitress and tried his best to smile. He hated taking orders from FBI agents...especially if they were any good or they were right. He wouldn't ever admit that they were their ideas. He swallowed hard, leaned against the bar, and began talking to waitress. He laughed at Zayden's last remark. "Yeah!" he then turned back to the girl. "Excuse me, have you seen a girl about 18 with bright--" He was cut off by someone screeching "Don't Stop Believing" off key at the karaoke stand. He opened his eyes again and shrugged it off with a deep breath, "have you seen a girl about 18 with bright red hair? Kind of has a Southern accent? Short?"

[GBHORROR]

Madison shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know. Just..you." she replied with a grin. She nodded in agreement, allowing herself to be moved closer to him and snuggling back into him. It was odd how things had turned out. Everything was far from normal, but right now, for these few moments, it seemed like none of those disastrous events that they had both went through had happened at all. "Really? Huh." she said, closing her eyes for a moment or two. She then shrugged. "I guess we could eat and then take that nap we talked about." she suggested. "But it's up to you." she told him.

Zayden winced slightly at the person singing. He stayed behind, figuring it'd be best to let Blake talk..ok, actually, not best, but he wasn't about to interfere, either. He leaned against one of the tables, staring outside absently.

The waitress stood from her position cleaning the table and looked at Blake. She was about to ask why he'd ask such a question when she noticed his attire and figured he was probably part of the FBI or something like that. "Uh, no." she said, shaking her head, blonde curls flying over her shoulder. "I definitely haven't seen anybody like that. Sorry." she apologized.

[LadyGalleth]

(( Aw!!! Jayden is her knight in shining armor! <3 ))

Norman nodded and laughed. "Sounds great to me!" He lad back down for a few seconds and relaxed. He could feel all of his worries washing away. It was amazing how one girl could do that. Jayden laughed and repositioned, smiling. "Ya know...I like spending time with you, Butterfly...really." was all he could say. He wanted to say more, so, so much more. But that was all he could mange. Jayden thought that his contempt silence and snuggling would speak for itself. He could do that for ever. Just lay there next to her.
There was a knock on the door, and he sprang up and jogged over to it. He greeted the waiter with a smile and a nod. "Thanks," he said.

"And here's a complementary bottle of wine for you, Agent Jayden, for everything you do." the waiter told with a grin.

"Uh...thanks," The agent complimented, watching him roll the food into the room, and gave Madison a grin. "Thank you so much."
~~~~~~~~~

"Like I thought," Blake grumbled. "Thank you." He began to walk away, but then stopped, placing his hands on the table again. "Would you happen to know anyone who has or does know her?" He demanded, then looked around at the rest of the cozy little building.
