James walked out of his locker room, dressed in a casual black shirt which he began tucking into the black jeans he wore. His short hair was gelled back, with a smile appearing on his face as he turned to face Jade.
"Is this alright?" James said, wondering what Jade would make of his choice of clothing.
Locking the door behind him and pulling his black leather jacket over his shirt.
"So you going to be driving?" James asked as he followed Jade toward the car park. The Brooklyn native couldn't decide where he would take his childhood friend. A fancy restaurant should do the trick, he thought, or perhaps a movie. Nah, a movie would mean less talking and he really wanted to catch-up with Jade. There was something she was hiding, holding something back. He could feel it but he couldn't be sure.
"Any idea where you want to go? Or will I have to make that decision?" James asked Jade.

[/color] Laughing she threw him the keys as she walked over to the passenger side of the car and waited for him to unlock the door. After he unlocked it, she moved herself onto the seat and closed the car door. Leaning against the arm rest/center glove compartment she looked over and waited for him to get in and once he did she just smiled. "You should choose, I imagine you will now places better than I do."Kissing his cheek she smiled and moved so she was leaning back in the co-pilot car seat. She liked to think of this thing as a jet, if it had wheels it would probably be powerful enough. Jade completely adored this car. Closing her eyes she smiled and then lowly looked over at her childhood friend. He was so different yet completely the same and so so so handsome, it practically drove her wild. But part of her thought back to things that made her heart race and it made her body shiver. Flashes of horrible things went through her mind and it made shivers fly down her spine. Panting for a couple seconds softly she looked around and made sure she was still in her car with someone who truly cared about her. That's where she was, she slowly placed her palm against his cheek and smiled. "I am so glad I'm back… and I am so glad that you are here with me." Smiling she blushed and then pulled away and placed her hands in her lap. "Soooo what do you think? Where we going Jay?"Smiling at him she winked and tilted her head with a small bit of curiousness, to show she wanted to know what he was going to plan.[/sup][/ul] [/font] TBC- Despy

Usually decisions for Desperado were pretty easy but this was going to be a little more difficult. He hadn't been out in a very long time and this seemed more like a date but they needed this. A chance to catch-up.
It was then it suddenly hit Desperado. What in the world was he doing? He wasn't ready for this. He knew what Jade wanted from but this wasn't going to work and it wasn't going to go anywhere. He wouldn't allow it. This was going to be difficult. No matter how attached he felt to her, no matter what feelings were burning within his soul, he knew all too well there was too much at stake to risk Jade in a relationship. If she made a mistake on her own choices, it wouldn't affect James but knowing she was in trouble or upset through his actions was not something he could live with. James had always been a Desperado and lived according to his choices. He didn't care about other people's lives and that's how he liked it best. Being around Jade changed that. Somebody was there he had to take care of and that responsibility would be too much for him to handle.
As she kissed his cheek, his heart clenched. He realised, it wouldn't be easy, letting her go without hurting her as well. No, that was near impossible. Knowing he was the only true friend she had. He didn't know how to do this but it had to be done. He knew he wasn't the same James anymore and nor was she the same Jade. Things weren't what they used to be. He needed time to rehabilitate himself to become the man Jade wanted.
Hiding the thought from the expression on his face, James gave his dear a friend a smile.
"I'm not of the socially active. To be honest, I haven't been out in a long time. I'm not feeling too fancy but I do know this little place around the block. Its quite and has a comfortable warmth about it. And it will give us some privacy. The guys there know me and the food is quite nice too."
James turned the ignition and started the engine of the car. Ignoring the seat belt, he put the car into gear before releasing the handbrake and putting his foot on the gas, allowing the car to start moving slowly before it picked up its stride.
TBCB Jade...
(Sorry for the late response and all but I just can't really RP as actively as you. Sorry.)

[/color] Laughing softly she slowly rubbed her thumb over the back of his hand. This was important to her, this feeling and his time. She couldn't wait to catch up with her friend.. someone she cared about.. someone she loved, it would be good for him and hopefully him. He didn't seem much more stable than she was when she saw him. They were both wrecks and hopefully they could help each other. The Beautiful Brit slowly closed her eyes and rested back into the seat while still keeping her hand over his, his being much warmer than her's so it felt nice. This felt.. nice.

The two enjoyed a short drive around the city before coming to a quiet inner city area where the streets weren't as crowded as the town center. The music was mellow in the back ground, some symphony orchestrated by some unknown composer James had taken an interest for. The melody was soothing and had a lot to offer if listened to carefully.
They arrived shortly after at Desperado's choice of place to eat. It was known as 'Mikel's Diner'. The place looked small but had a pleasant look to it. Not like the shabby diner's you usually find. Desperado parked the car in front of the diner, stepping out of the car first so that he could rush over to Jade's side and open the door for her. James smiled like a young teenager on his first date but with a maturity about it that seemed to be hiding just behind the truth he was hiding. He still hadn't thought how he would do this and he couldn't bare think how Jade would take it.
"This is the place, Mikel's Diner. What do you think? Not too Shabby right. Mikel's a friend of mine and he'll prepare us something special. He's even got a nice room at the back for some privacy. And best of all, he won't charge us. Ha-ha." Desperado chuckled as he allowed Jade to step out of her car.
TBCB Jade.

-----------------------------------------
Desperado continued to smile in Jade's direction, staring deep into her eyes as the plates were cleared away. The meal had been great, or it had been for James anyway. All this time he had been thinking of a way to make this all somewhat easier and then it struck him. It was a long shot but he had to make it up to her somehow. He needed this break more than ever and it would make life easier for the both of them.
"Are you just going to carry on looking at me like that?" Jade said, smiling to herself. She felt like she was in high school again, with the boy that was crushing on her. But she realised, this wasn't usual of James. "Is something the matter?"
"Jade ... There's something I need to talk to you about. Something important and its quite difficult for me to say it."
Jade's eyes lit up.
"It's not what you think Jade and it may not be the best of news. I am really glad that your back and wish I could be there for you but I am not in the right frame of mind to be of use to you as a friend or anything else."
Jade's eyes dropped and the smile that flowered her beautiful face faded away into a look of fret, confusion and surprise.
"Jay, it doesn't have to be this way. We can make it work. We can work through this. The two of us together. Please don't go."
It was hurting James to see Jade hurt this way but he had to be strong now.
"I'll be back Jade, I promise. You've recovered and you're much stronger than you were the last time I saw you. For me, its gone downhill from there. I couldn't conquer my demons Jade. I still have the same old hallucinations. I've stopped seeing my shrink. I've stopped my medication. I'd dropped everything, I'd given up Jade but after seeing you today its given me the strength to go fight this. I've decided I'm going to go into rehab and overcome this problem of mine."
"Why are you running away from me Jay, I've just got you back? Why do you have to do this?"
"You know why I have to do this Jade. You've got to let me do this Jade, you'll have to let me go, for me. I'm not running away from you Jade. I'm letting you know I'm leaving so that I can return, stronger than before, so I can be the man you want me to be. I'm going to go now Jade, I've already ordered my cab for the airport. It should be coming to pick me up soon. I've made up my decision Jade and I'm not turning back on it. It's best if we say our goodbye's now but I promise I'll be back soon. I promise."
Desperado stood up from his seat, moving his chair away as he walked across toward Jade. He leans down as he approaches her, slipping his fingers under her chin, allowing their lips to meet for a few fleeting moments. He pulled away, pushing back some of the hair that had fallen across her face.
"I'm sorry ...." He whispered before turning slowly and walking away ...
