Nathan watched as his cousin approached, not wearing the suit that the school had provided him; of course not he wouldn't expect any different from Jason. When he finally reached the table his cousin joked and complained a bit, noting the obvious was something his whole family was good at...just not when it came to things that his mother was doing to him. He knew that what happened was no one's fault but his mothers but he often pondered if someone had paid more attention if things wouldn't have escalated to the point they did. As always he shook the thought out of his mind and threw a cheap smile at his family member.
"I think it's nice." He said looking around at their surroundings. "Don't get me wrong, I feel like a fish out of water but this place is...beautiful. I've never seen anything like it." Nathan didn't go to prom...or any school activities for that matter, so this was something truly miraculous to him, and it was only the first official day here in his new life. He decided to try and throw a joking insult back at his cousin for calling him a nerd. "Oh, and yeah I've always looked like a nerd, but you look like an idiot wearing what you have on. I mean the school provided the clothes for you...all you has to do was put them on." He hoped his sarcasm was obvious enough and that he wasn't coming off as a dick, but there were truth in his words to some extent. Then she approached. Dani spoke to his cousin first, mentioning his constant smell of oil and grease; something Nathan had still not grown accustomed to after all these years. Then she turned her attention to him.
"Did you forget it's a date?" She asked him...he immediately turned bright red. She quickly changed the subject and he was honestly glad she did. He pulled himself together and answered her question regarding their peers.
"I'm a little nervous, but I will say that if they're anywhere near as cool as you are then I might actually have something to get excited about." Nathan's words came out in a way that sounded playful and almost flirtatious, which not only was uncharacteristic of him but also not quite what how he meant to sound. He smiled at her at first but then nervously looked away and down at his plate of food.
