Anne feigned shock, grinning as he added the 'I love you' to soften it.

"You better, else I'll spank you, you bad boy." she growled playfully, stealing a kiss as she waved at a dancer she recognized when they passed. Earning a wave back, they threaded through the crowd to sit at a table by the edge of the stage. There was better seating throughout the club, private booths and VIP tables where they could have had some privacy, but the table was still quite nice, complete with a bouquet of red roses in the center.

Delicately taking her seat, Anne rummaged in her clutch and pulled out a small stack of singles, handing them to Ash as he settled in beside her.

"Happy Valentine's Day." she beamed. "I knew you might not be prepared, so I brought enough for the whole class."
