Tao stared back and forth between the girl, Elise and the boy who had introduced himself as Ryan. These were two people he was just meeting for the first time and honestly...what in the world was going on? Things were happening so fast that he wasn't able to really to process it all very well. A night that started out with just a leisurely stroll somehow turned into him being dragged along with two strangers. He just sorta shrugged when Elise mentioned them as a trio, he wasn't sure how he liked that. Though he couldn't stop the redness and warmth that came to his cheeks when Ryan mentioned him and his new female friend having a moment. [b][color=fff79a]"You didn't interrupt anything. We just met, she's a stranger to me."[/color][/b] He said without really thinking, instantly feeling bad. His words didn't sound very nice.

He hated this whole situation, he should have just stayed home in his room. [i]"Why don't I just walk away? It's not like I would ever see these two again? I could be doing something so much more productive."[/i] He thought, letting out a small huff. He pulled the trademark scarf up closer to his face, he felt embarrassed and unsure about what to do. Normally he knew what to do with people - business wise that is. However in a social and casual setting he was like a fish out of water, fumbling with words.

As Ryan went ahead to answer some text message he had gotten he spoke to Elise, though he couldn't bring himself to look her in the eye. Why was he always so nervous around girls? [b][color=fff79a]"Sorry for saying that...I'm not...good with people."[/color][/b] The dark-haired boy admitted. Embarrassed he pulled his scarf up to more of his face.

[b][color=fff79a]"That drink stall over there has some good drinks, and they are pretty cheap."[/color][/b] He said, honestly he needed a good strong drink. Perhaps he didn't leave was because he felt bad? God if that was the case then he needed to stop hanging around Paige and Felix, those two were going to be the death him. Either because of some dangerous outing she dragged him on or a social event that Felix swear he needed to go to. But a thought occurred to him, perhaps this was a good idea to "let loose" as Felix always said, in his line of work he never got to do that. 

Thought honestly, what could he get out of these two? Friendship or just some plain ol' company from some strangers?
