Lucas' world was turned completely upside down.

Claire had winked at him.

[i]Dude. DUDE. Can you say GOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAA-[/i]

[i]Not now. I'm too busy freaking out.[/i]

He freaked out by standing still twitching, trying to decipher what on Earth had just happened. But then he realized she was over there, so he practically sprinted to get back next to her.

Now, he was [i]really[/i] flustered.

The barely coherent babbling continued. [b]"Coffee? Uhhh, well, I uh, I like...I like nut. Hazelnut."[/b] He hoped she wouldn't notice his blushing in light of him noticing hers...she'd probably notice. 

[i]Okay, pull yourself together dude.[/i]

[i][u]She WINKED at me.[/u][/i]

[i]Yes, good, you can use your eyes. Pull yourself together.[/i]

[i]It was a [u]WINK![/u] A full on wink, right after she asked "Coming?" to the direction of her apartment! I just...I...[/i]

[i][u]Pull it together man.[/u] Do you realize what this is?[/i]

[i]A dream?[/i]

[i]No, stupid. It's a [u]big chance.[/u][/i]

[i]But what do I do?![/i]

[i]...really dude? You're not 12. You know exactly what to do. [u]Not what you're currently doing.[/u][/i]

At this point Lucas' cheeks were no longer red. He had his hand on the back of his head, and was attempting - and mostly failing - to act normal.

He asked her an odd question, speaking softly and uncertainly. [b]"Hey...was that a...a [i]wink[/i]?"[/b]
