He smiled at the reply, not stepping forwards since he'd get the floor wet. "That's a nice name, I don't think I've ever heard it before," This comment made El smile a little. "Thanks, Tony." When his name was spoken it made him scrunch his face in confusion. "How do you know my name?" El simply motioned to the name tag on his shirt. He blushed a bit since he forgot he had it on. "Oh, yeah, right," He was totally screwing up any chance he had with her. In his eyes she was definitely attractive, but so was the other girl whose name he had yet to get.
"Roxy, you got the groceries, so this is mine, all of it, tip included." Elvira scolded playfully. "So, how much is the pizza?" She turned to ask Tony, who was watching Roxy. "Hmm? Oh, uh, what time is it?" Elvira glanced at the clock on the stove across the room before answering. "8:23." Tony smiled slightly. "It's free, I didn't make it in time, so it's free." El had pulled out a $20 and was staring at him blankly. "Well, the tip isn't free, so," She pulled out a $10 and offered it out to him along with the $20. "You went the extra mile and delivered the pizza still hot,"
Tony smiled through his blush while holding Roxy's phone. "Thank you, both. Either or works. If you have something sweet in terms of tea, I'll have that. Otherwise hot chocolate sounds good. So...you two live here with your boyfriends or...?" He ventured, wondering if either was dating. Best figure out first before he made a fool of himself and look like a jerk.
"Really? Must be nice. Just a couple of friends, getting to do as you please. You both probably have to fend off unwanted attention wherever you go," Tony said, attempting to be charming. He see the towel on the chair before sitting so he wouldn't ruin it.
"Glad they were dealt with. I try to stop that kind of stuff when I see it," he said to Elvira. Tony chuckled and shook his head. "Unless she happens to be one of you ladies, no such luck on that front."
Roxy had felt a flush of jealousy when Tony had made his intentions known. And when Elvira blushed and looked away, she felt a bit sad. Maybe Elvira liked him back. She shouldn't feel jealous and certainly not upset. Elvira wasn't hers, nor where they dating. She should be happy if Elvira started to date him.
Tony smiled a bit, nodding. "I'm sorry. I had kind of gotten the vibe you two might be together. I thought I would give it a try. Couple of nice, thoughtful girls? Not mad I didn't bring the pizza on time and concerned with my situation? Clearly you are both a catch. Just caught by each other. Sorry. So... My boss said he'd get things together but a tow truck should be here to pick me up before going to get the car. Mind if I hang out here for a few minutes?"
"Thank you. I would love one," Tony chuckled.
Tony groaned, savoring the delicous brownie. "Pretty sure you guys should start up a business and sell these. They are by far the best I have ever had."
"You're welcome. Be safe and maybe we'll see you next time we get pizza," Roxy said, stepping towards the door to get it for him.
