She was a little glad to hear that Rebecca was bringing ingredients over, although she couldn't help but worry about the quality of ingredients she would bring. She was so used to knowing where the food she was eating was coming from, or in the very least, could leave food selection in capable hands like James. Hands... She sighed mentally as she resigned herself to not hold his hand, surprised and embarrassed when he seemed not to miss a beat, easily slipping his hands in between her own and making their way towards the car. Her delicate fingers curled to hold his hand, a shy smile creeping to her face. 

Getting situated in the car, she closed her eyes, simply enjoying the soft music that played in the car, content with the feeling of James' hand in her own. Upon reaching the school parking lot, she only grew more embarrassed as he held her hand as they made their way up towards his apartment. Smiling and giving a small thank you as he motioned for her to head inside first, she slipped her fingers out of his grasp, watching as he began to pick up a few things, moving to fix some pillows on the couch. 

Sitting back on the couch, Freya glanced over towards James when he called her name. At the question, her cheeks flushed. He was asking her out again? It was surprising, even if they had an amazing time last they were on a date. She had to admit she was a little hesitant. What if she ended up saying something silly? Their first date had gone so well, should they even go on a second one? That didn't make sense. She brushed the thought away for the moment, and nodded. [color=0072bc][b]"I'd love to."[/b][/color] 

They sat in silence for a moment. [color=0072bc][b]"Hey James? Can you put your head on my lap? I want to play with your hair for a moment while we have some time to ourselves."[/b][/color] Even though she asked, she was already tugging at his arm, and her fingers gently gliding through his dark blue strands. Humming to herself, she closed her eyes. [color=0072bc][b]"I can't believe it's already close to midterms. Soon we'll be packing up and heading home for summer break."[/b][/color] Freya giggled softly. [color=0072bc][b]"I do miss home, I can't wait to be back and tell Daddy about how much fun I had so--"[/b][/color] She stopped in the middle of her sentence.

It was sinking in a little bit. What they were doing right now...it couldn't happen in any capacity when they returned to the manor. Her hands slowly kept moving through his hair, and she eventually broke the silence by clearing her throat. [color=0072bc][b]"S-So, James. What...What country--" [/b][/color]

She looked up as the doorbell rang out. They hadn't even been inside that long. Was Rebecca here early??
