Modern!Laina AU with Agent Lillytiger

[Agent Lilytiger]

Levi glanced over at the Murphey family, trying to read their thoughts on him as Raina put the violin away. He couldn't really tell what they thought of him, but he was dying to know. Well, he was dying to know, but also terrified to know. He finally sat back in his seat as Raina sat beside him, taking her hand. He was clamming up again, with nothing much to say.

[Agent Blackhawk]

Raina interlocked their fingers as Levi took her hand. She tried to think of something to say, but she was coming up at a loss for words. "So Levi," Phillip spoke after a minute. "What do you play and how long have you been a musician?"

[Agent Lilytiger]

Levi turned to look at Mr. Murphey as he addressed him. "I'm a bassist. I've been playing since I was about fourteen." He said, silently praying they didn't ask about anything more of his past. He wasn't quite ready to divulge that information quite yet.

[Agent Blackhawk]

Phillip nodded as Levi answered his questions. He look at the club next, noting the time. Elaine spoke up. "Sorry, dear, but we really should get going." Raina forced herself to get to her feet. "Well thank you for coming. It's been fantastic seeing you all again." About ten minutes later, the Murphys were off and Raina collapsed on the couch. "Well? What did you think of them?"

[Agent Lilytiger]

Levi sank onto the couch beside Raina after the Murphey's had left. He looked over at her and grinned. "They're pretty great." He said, nodding. He hesitated, then turned his head so that he was looking straight forward. "Do you think they liked me?" He asked.

[Agent Blackhawk]

Raina looked over at Levi, her grin matching his. "I know. Those people are more like parents than Marcus and Anna ever were." She nodded as he looked away. She reached out and gently tilted his head towards her. "I think they loved you." She replied, pecking a quick kiss to his lips.

[Agent Lilytiger]

Levi smiled a little, pressing into Raina's quick kiss. "I'm glad you that you think so." He murmured. He looked away, biting his lower lip. "Hey, so, I was thinking," he began nervously, "What if we saw your mom before we left?" He suggested.

[Agent Blackhawk]

Raina smiled and rested her head on Levi's shoulder. "I know so." She raised a brow at the nervousness in his voice, her smile immediately fled at his suggestion. She really didn't want to. She and Anna had started to make up, but they still had a long way to go. She sighed. "Where? Here?"

[Agent Lilytiger]

Levi shrugged. "Here, there, a restaurant. Wherever." He said. He turned on the couch, pulling one leg onto it as he faced her. "Come on Raina. She's your mom. She's going to be my mother in law one day. Shouldn't we at least say goodbye?" He said, giving her a small smile.

[Agent Blackhawk]

Raina sighed, running a hand through her ponytail. "Fine." She agreed grumpily. "There's a nice little restaurant on the wharf. We can meet there. We can say goodbye. And then we can leave." She said, her lips pressing into a thin line as she thought more about the meeting.
