[Red River Boarding School]

(sorry, g2g. I'll be on later this week.)

(k i g2g too)

*James laughed a bit as he walked her over to the table and sat down*

"well.. there are two parts of it.. i got into a fight when i was little, and got cut by a knife.. and then i..." he stopped and thaught "i dont think you would wanna hear what happend... it might make you a bit sick..."

hayato stepped behind them "my mentor ripped his eye out..."

*James put his hand on his head as he leaned on the table*

"why did you have to say that??" he asked

(Okay, good night you guys. 🙂 )

Now it was her turn to laugh as she sat down across from him at the table, removing the lid to her ice cream and gently laying it down on the table.

"Honestly, you think I'm that femanine? Well... I can see where you'd think that." she corrected herself, glancing down at the red dress she was currently wearing. then she straightened up and returned her gaze to him. "But I'm much more stomach strong then you think. Please, do enlighten me." she urged him on, lifting some ice cream to her lips with her spoon.

*James sighed*

"Exactl as hayato said" he said "a teacher here, he ripped my eye out..."

She blinked a few times before realizing what Hayato had said.

"I see..." she turned to James, confusion written all across her face. "Why would he do that though?..."

*James sighed even louder*

"cuz i was smartin off and i said i could beat him in a fight..."

She couldn't help but grin a toothy smile at his reaction, it was amusing how he tried to change the subject.

"The ice cream is great, thank you." she said, still looking at him, though not pressing the issue. "Hm... should we go? It's getting late.. I need to see to it that my things are unpacked. I haven't necessarily unpacked my belongings in my room yet." Michelle said, fiddeling with her fingers embarrassed.

*James smiled at her*

"sure.. id help you unpack.. but im sure there is stuff that you wouldnt want me to see..." he said "need help finding your dorm?"

Michelle couldn't help but feel a cozy fuzzy feeling when talking to him, it had been a while since she had been able to talk to anyone in such a comfortable manner as she was doing now.

"I would love for you to help me find my dorm." Standing up, she waited beside the talbe to him to stand as well. "As for my belongings, you're right... I wouldn't want you ot see some of my..... personal..... things." she laughed at the mere mention of it and started her way out of the cafe, the ice cream in her hands.

*James smiled as he followed her*

"Whats your dorm number?" he asked

"Oh, duh..." She said with her spoon in her mouth. Then she reached to her book and opened it to the last page where a folded piece of paper lay. "Here it is." she began, handing it to him. "Oddly enough I haven't looked at it yet, do you think you know where it'd might be?"

*James smiled, and looked into her eyes*

"i know exactly where it is" he said with a flirtatios grin. after a few minutes the reached her dorm "here it is... i wish i could to you a bit more...."

Biting her tongue as she thought quietly to herself, she leaned against the wall near the doorframe of closed dorm and tilted her head up to look at him, crossing her arms in front of her chest.

"If I may be so bold, James. If I didn't know better.... are you flirting with me?" she asked, a small smile playing across her lips.

*James smiled*

"im sorry..." he said "but what if i am?" he was being sarcastic and joking

She reached for her dorm key and fumbled with it in the lock before opening it and stepping into the doorway. She then answered his question.

"I dunno... depends on whether you're willing to be brave enough to tell me that you're flirting, or not." She stepped into the room and behind the door, ready to close it before she finished. "But if you are flirting with me, let me know and I'll tell you what's on my mind." She then closed the door.

*James sighed, he now had nothing to do*

"yea.. i was flirting with you, i think your cute, and i think you are nice and sweet" he called through her door

She blushed deeper then before, her cheeks growing hot. She wasn't honestly expecting him to be so forward about it. Leaning against the door on her back, she smiled and called to him through the door as well.

"Well then, James. Be sure to come visit me now that you know where my dorm is. I have yet to let you know whether I like your flirting or not." she said, though fairly sure it was obvious that she did. "Who knows, I might flirt back."
