Apathy remained despite being aware of the other man's frazzled exterior; though a brief hint of a half-smirk crooked up one side of Chase's countenance, yet in a flash had it disappeared, just as the first time. Alert to the approaching librarian, a thinned brow arched as though in suspension, though its faux nature was rather assured.
Prepared for such a sneaky attempt to regain superiority, nimble digits saved the victimized cylinder, though not without popping the cherry and having it sizzle briefly across the flesh of Chase's hand. Hissing in dissatisfaction, the brunette flung the smoldering bit of cigarette to the floor, only to smash it thoroughly with shoe's toe.
Needless to say, Chase was displeased, eyeing the reddened spot, showing promise of a blister. Indigo eyes uplifted, glaring, though sought to keep the remaining part of that precious stick from harm. "Guess you got what you wanted."
