He didn't seem fazed, nor should he have been, as her look was not at all serious. He only teased her further. So she responded in kind. "It was my secret to keep. It's not my fault if you can't keep any of yours," she replied.
If he didn't move out of her space she was going to have to shove him, all this attention was starting to make her blush again. But he did, he straightened up and started talking to... Ethan?
"And do you two know each other?" she asked, leaning over the edge of her chair to involve herself in their conversation.
"Maybe you shouldn't be so irresistible that I felt the need to tell you all my deep dark secrets." Marcus gave her another wink because it clearly annoyed her and he liked seeing her all fired up. He moved back however, just in case she did decide to take a swing at him.
Axe looked up at Zan and then back to Caroline. "You could say that. But I'm the better looking one" he chuckled, sparing a quick glance at Zan. His huge ego sometimes surfaced especially at times like these when there were so many women in the room. And even better Zan, wouldn't bother to retort. He had probably already zoned out anyway.

Or...him?! WHAT? What was this? Bunbury's bright blue eyes quickly darted between Truebridge and Lawson, Lawson and Truebridge, trying to figure out the connection between them. One called the other 'mate'... so...that implied that they knew each other...already?
Oh this was on. On like Donkey Kong. Anastasia crossed her arms in a silent huff and glared daggers at Marcus, unable to actually say anything since she was pretending not to know him....still...how could they have friends in common? Hmm? This was simply scandalous.
AND this one too?! The cherry pie tart whatever little girl knew Truebridge too and Bunbury didn't even see a connection? Wow she felt like a social failure, not having even heard of Whatshernamelookitme before today. It was whatever though. She would just listen in on their little conversation and absorb the secrets to her enemies. Yes...that was how she operated. Silent and deadly.
Marcus raised an eyebrow at Annie...possessive much!! Heaven forbid should the man sit anywhere but near her, nice to see things hadn't changed. Noticing her look between himself and Zan, Marcus allowed himself another smirk. Oh yeah she wasn't the only one to know him. He merely gave Annie a lazy look and reclined casually back in the seat but he couldn't resist giving her a wink. 'Nice to see you again...babe' he mouthed to her.

He looked up at Annie, it took him almost a full minute to register that she meant for him to sit next to him. He'd prefer to stand but Annie would probably be quite put out if he didn't sit with her, he'd learned that she liked things to go her way and mostly he didn't much mind. Giving Cari's shoulder a comforting you-are-welcome-here squeeze, he moved to sit next to Annie, meeting her eyes for a brief moment before focusing his attention on Bontecou.
"Ah of course, silly me" Axe replied dryly. He would have to talk to the bloke about taking everything so literally. And then he watched in horror as he made his way over to Annie.
No man don't do it, she will eat you alive and spit out your remains. Of course Marcus said none of this and looked away with a nonchalant expression on his face.
