[i]Welkins reached down and grabbed Reia's hand. She didn't think much of it, but she stole a quick look at Welkins face. He looked deep in thought. [color=00a651]"Reia I need to tell you something. I know we just met, but I think I've already started developing feelings for you. I know we don't know much about each other and I'm aware that it sounds crazy, but I just wanted to tell you. I Understand if you want nothing to do with me anymore, but for some reason I feel I can't keep anything from you."[/color] They were half way to her house. She looked at him again, this time her expression blank. Her heart was in her throat and she didn't know how to react right away. She breathed in slow and deep through her nose to try and calm herself down. 

[color=f6989d]"I..."[/color] she started speaking, unsure though how to continue. She could tell there was a spark. She felt it right away, but she didn't want to be distracted from her schooling this quickly. Swiftly she tried to sort her emotions and feelings out. She did think he was very cute, he was an elf as well, and he seemed extremely nice. What was she gonna do? [color=f6989d]"I don't know if I should be distracting myself from my studies..."[/color] she finally said, [color=f6989d]"I just started..."[/color] her sentence trailed off again. She looked at Welkins again more closely, her hand was still in his and she didn't want to let it go. She wondered what would happen if she started seeing him. The worst that could really happen is she could get hurt, and her grades could suffer. 

Reia chewed on the inside of her lip and then came to a conclusion. She took a step closer to him, standing almost right up against him. She knew that this life was new and she wanted to make the best of it. She wanted to keep every door open. [color=f6989d]"How about this... You take me on a date. And then we can see how it goes...?"[/color] Her eyes met his and they shone in the moonlight brightly, her pupils still slit and black, the blue more obvious this way. [/i]
