Room 406, All day

[izzyalienqueen]

Isabel made a quick pass through the common room kitchen to fix up a plate of healthy snack food then returned to her room to spend the day trying to keep up with the reading for all her classes. As she settled in with the reading for Interstellar Relations, her mind wandered to something she'd noticed in yesterday's Ethics class. Reaching for her phone, Isabel left a quick message, before opening her book and beginning to read.

"I supppose I shouldn't tell you I brought Seely to the Underworld last week, should I?" Bel said, ducking his head.

Isabel had good aim, despite the ducking, she still managed to thwap him gently. "Why?" she asked with a sigh. "Or is that going to make me hit you again?"

[demonbelthazor]

"It seemed like a good idea at the time?" Bel said. "He was trying to arrest me in Criminal Justice and I wanted to show him he could never take me in."

"Famous last words," she said, shaking her head. "I figured as much, macho posturing is going to get you killed!"

[demonbelthazor]

Bel grinned sheepishly. "Demon," he said, as if that explained everything.

"Guy," Isabel said, returning the grin. "Sorry, but that's totally the testosterone doing the talking."

[demonbelthazor]

"You say that like it's a bad thing," Bel said.

"It is if it puts you in a situation where you can get killed," she said. "I hate to sound like I'm beating a dead horse, but I don't want to see you be the horse." Isabel made a face. "And wow, that was messed up imagery."

[demonbelthazor]

"I don't intend to be the horse," Bel said. "But I'll try not to put myself in places where it's more likely I'll get killed, okay?"

"That's all I'm asking for," Isabel said. "And if it makes you feel better, I had to make a similar promise to Greg. He wasn't happy when I got back from LA and immediately went off to rescue Jack."

[demonbelthazor]

"I wouldn't be happy either if you were my girlfriend," Bel said.

"Oh but it was okay for me to help when Phoebe got kidnapped?" she asked. "And he wasn't mad that I went to help, he was mad that I snuck out and just left him a note."

[demonbelthazor]

"Because you were trying to hide it from him," Bel said. "If Phoebe did that I'd be upset, too."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Now it was Isabel's turn to be sheepish. "I know. Trust me, I won't be doing it again."

[demonbelthazor]

"Good," Bel said. He grinned. "Guess we've both learned our lesson."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Oh yes," she laughed. "I won't go running off into danger without telling him and I hope you'll avoid the places where people want to kill you."

[demonbelthazor]

"First I gotta fix things with Phoebe," Bel sighed unhappily. "She's going home for the weekend and I don't want her to go pissed off at me."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"That would be a good idea," Isabel nodded. "You don't want her to brood the entire time she's home. I'd suggest flowers and saying I'm sorry and meaning it."

[demonbelthazor]

"I meant it when I said it before," Bel protested. "I don't like her getting mad at me."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"You'll have to keep saying it until she believes you," she said. "When you said it before, was that when you wound up having the whole conversation about her kissing people?"

[demonbelthazor]

"That was the first time," Bel admitted. "The second time was just more of the same I guess."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Then I guess in her mind you're not getting the reason why she's upset," Isabel said. "You're going to have to show her that you understand why."

[demonbelthazor]

"Demon relationships aren't like human ones," Bel said, scratching his head. "I have a lot to learn."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I figured as much," she nodded. "I guess it's more about power then respect and communication?"

[demonbelthazor]

"Right," Bel said. "I've been at this for a year now, though. Homecoming is our anniversary."
