Talli noted the smile turn into the slight frown. Ok so maybe they were doomed. She took it as a sign that there ws no way out. As they walked closer to the crypt she made a face as her flat sunk into a grassy mud bath. She made a light "eck" noise but continued walking. Still worrying about being lost or not, she tried to ignore the squishy substance that was now coating the bottom of her feet. "So, are you promising to rescue me from this spooky grave yard?" She gave a sarcastic laugh. "I never took you as the prince charming type."
Talli looked in the direction he pointed. She saw a black abyss. Maybe now was a good time to tell him she wasn't wearing her contacts. "Heh...did I ever tell you how bad my vision is without my contacts?" She gave a weak smile and drooped her head in a sign of apology. "Sorry..." She said weakly. She now felt totally useless, if she hadn't shown up he would have remembered how to get out of here, and he wouldn't have to worry about anyone else. How stupid she could be sometimes...

Michio just nodded his head. "I would do anything for the fair maiden!" He said in your typical 'Prince Charming' character voice after hearing her comment about him not being the Prince Charming type. He stopped walking, and pulled out a invisible sword and pretended to take a swipe at an equally as invisible dragon. He smirked, as an idea came to him. He scooped Talli up into his arms ((Bridal style! OOO Michio's a Prince!)) He shook his head, and swooshed his hair in a Prince Charmingesque fashion. "How's that for being Prince Charming?" His smirk changed to a grin as he continued to hold Talli up in his arms.
He smiled and shook his head. "That is really not a problem at all." Michio swallowed the lump that had formed in his throat back, and looked back towards the light. He squinted a bit. Wait a second, did it just move? Michio couldn't really be sure and he wasn't really sure if they should get any closer to it. He examined it again and it stopped moving. It was probably just his imagination. With Talli still in his arms he slowly began to make his way towards the light.

Talli squirmed and blushed brightly. "Ah! Very...charming...you can put me down now!!" Her eyes went wide as he started actually carrying her. "HEY! Seriously....I'm heavy I don't want you to like hurt yourself?" She was trying anything in the book to get down now. As he continued to walk she started feeling uneasy.
"Hey, where are we going...." Her eyes darted around anxiously...this didn't seem like a good idea. And what was that moving behind them?

Michio snapped back into his body and realized that he was still carrying Talli in his arms. He placed her feet on the squishy ground carefully. He let out a nervous laugh. "Sorry about that." If you listened closely enough you could just barely hear a tinge of shakiness in his voice as well. Michio's eyes darted from her face to the light that now sat unmoving only a short distance from them. "Stay here." This time when he spoke his voice was solid and didn't shake at all.
He walked a short distance from her, a little closer to the light. He wanted to keep the distance between them as small as possible in case there really was some weirdo out in this cemetary at night. His eyes kept darting back and forth, from her to the light. As he got closer he heard voices. The words were slurred and kind of ran together. Drunk, should have known. They didn't sound like they were old, they actually sounded more like they were around Michio and Talli's ages. He hid behind a tall gravestone and strained to listen. They were getting closer and closer.
A bright light shone in Michio's eyes and blinded the boy for a second. "Hey it's Michio!" Michio could easily recognize the voice. It came from Chad. Ryo Highs one and only running back. "What the hell are you doin' here?" The second voice belonged to Brett, another less important member of Ryo's football team. He felt arms wrap around his neck and give it a light squeeze and heard a third voice. "Oh my god -hiccup- it is him!" The third voice came from Mindy. Your typical high school slut. She kind of reminded him of Meiying in a way. Her face was dangerously close to his and it wreaked of alcohol.
"I was just exploring." He removed his arms from around his neck and turned his head back around with his eyes searching for Talli. When they finally found her he motioned for her to come over.

Talli watched as Michio walked away from her. Hm, braver than he appeared. She wrapped her arms around her body as tightly as possible. Talli scanned the area with her eyes, Spooky trees, Crumbling grave stones, A rat. "Eck" She muttered to herself and turned her attention back to Michio.He was talking to somebody. She watched diligently as he nodded her over. "Well hopefully hes not using me as bait for a murderer..." She said sullenly and trotted over obediently. when did I become a dog?[.i] She questioned herself ans she put on a smile adn approached Michios side. "Hey..." She said semi-brightly. She was still slightly terrified...

Michio smiled as Talli walked up to the four. He could tell that she wasn't exactly excited about meeting the others. "Talli, I'm not sure if you already know these guys from school. But this is Chad, Brett, and Mindy." As he said each name he pointed to each of the three drunkards. "And guys, this is Talli." He said pointing to her with a smile. He flashed her a quick smile and looked back to the three. "So what are you guys doing out here this late anyway?"
"There was a party over at this one guys house. Why weren't you there man? It was hardcore man." "Mindy started table dancing!"
Chad and Brett both grinned, and Brett threw a wink at Michio. Michio just smiled, and nodded. Jeez, now I am really glad I didn't go.. It didn't explain why they were in the graveyard, but it explained why they were drunk. And Michio just inferred that that was the reason they were in the cemetary in the first place.
Mindy drapped her arms around the Asian boys shoulders again. "Michio -hiccup- can you take me -hiccup- home with you?" Michio just looked at the girl and blinked a few times. He removed her arms and scooted a little closer to Talli. "Sorry I have a previous engagement." Mindy glared at Talli and her expression softened when she looked back up at Michio. "Your loss." Not really but okay...
"So do you guys know how exactly we get out of here?"
Brett pointed behind them. "The entrance is only a little way back there." Michio sighed with relief. "Okay thanks, well Talli and I have to go." He grabbed her hands and began to pull her away from them. When they were a safe distance away Michio let out yet another sigh of relief.
"Thank god."

Talli looked at the drunk group and was glad Michio was next to her. "Heh, Hi..." She said weakly. After being so terrified a few drunk teens wasn't really anything to throw her for a loop. But by now her nerves were fried. The girl, Mindy, glared at Talli when Michio said he had previous plans. Talli almost laughed. Sure Michio was interested in anything with two legs, but not two legs with the clap. She gave a sickeningly sweet smile to the girl as Michio pulled her away.
"Well that was fun..." She said sarcastically once they were a safe distance away. She wrinkled her nose as the scent of alcohol still had her head spinning. There was a reason Talli didn't drink. "If I ever get that drunk, shoot me kay?" She gave a playful smile to Michio as they approached the exit. She shook her mushy shoe and wrinkled up her nose in disgust. "I'm never going back to a grave yard at night...." she cast Michio a weary gaze. "Not even for you." She gave a weak laugh and tugged at her jeans.

Michio watched as Talli shook her shoe, and as her face twisted into one of disgust. He looked down at her now mud-covered shoes and couldn't help but to laugh a little bit. He pointed down at her mud covered shoes. "You know, you could have avoided that whole mess if you had just let me carry you." He tone suggested a hint of 'I told you so', but there was a hint of joking in there somewhere.
Michio let his face twist into one showing disappointment. "Damn, cause I planned on asking you on a date." Well the first part was true. "And getting you drunk, then taking you to a dark graveyard so I could have my way with you." Maybe part of the second part was true as well. Michio winked at her, and chuckled a bit. His eyes strayed away from her for a second and he bit down on his lower lip. He was acting like a nervous teenager, and that was strange for him. He may have been a teenager, but he didn't get nervous. Well, okay RARELY got nervous. His eyes darted back to her and he stopped walking for a minute. Grabbing her hand, he pulled her back to him so they were standing face to face.
"But let me propose something to you. How about I promise not to make you go to a dark cemetary drunk, and you go on a date with me?"

Talli rolled her eyes and stuck her tongue out at Michio. She wiggled her petite foot one more time before making a disgusted face and laughing. "I'd rather ruin my favorite shoes that have you throw your back out carrying me!" Talli gave an amused smile at how nervous he was getting.She was making him nervous... Her the akward girl with funny looking hair. "Oh dear me...if those were your plans then you've failed. " When he started talking about an actual date though he bright eyes widened drastically. He could have any girl he wanted...any guy none the less. But he was asking her on a date? He probably had already asked quite a few people here on dates. He'd probably slept with a few people here. So she mustn't let herself think she was that special. But still he asked her on a date! "Me? You're asking me on a date?" She ruffled her red hair and gave a smirk. Her eyes still held the slightest hint of confusion but she played it off with arrogance. "Well, I could think about it...." She gave him a reassuring smile. "I'd love to."

The honest truth was that when Talli accepted his offer, Michio wanted jump up and do some strange victory dance. He probably would have if there wasn't anyone else around. But Talli was there, and he needed to try and not look like a dork. Unfortunately for him at least, his indifferent demeanor was shattered as the corners of his lips creeped slowly upwards into a large, almost goofy looking grin.
"Really?"
There was hint of excitement in his voice, and the goofy smile continued it's unwelcome stay on his face. It took him a few moments to realize that his tone had showed way more excitement than it normally did, and as soon as he did his cheeks . Michio cleared his throat again before speaking. "I mean uhm yeah that sounds cool I guess." He turned his head away from her for a second, and tamed his overly-large, unwelcome smile into a small smirk. Of course, she said yes. I mean why wouldn't she! Michio even made an attempt to make his thoughts sound cocky as he turned his head back to look at her again.
"So, when shall we go?" Michio thought for a moment and continued to smirk at her. "Unless you want to go now. Because you know, dates are always fun at..." Michio paused for a moment and pulled his bright red blackberry out of his tight jean pocket. He pressed the side button and watched as the screen lite up for a moment so he could check the time. He couldn't help but notice he had five missed calls. Probably all from Meiying...damn sister...
"11:30."

Talli laughed. She couldn't help but smile cutely as Michio tried to hide his giddy smile. She couldn't help it! She ahd to! Leaning over she planted a soft kiss on his cheek. "you're adorable..." She said sweetly into his ear before leaning away to give her own shy blush. She could be bold and daring when she wanted to. It also distracted her from the mushing in her shoes. She laughed as he looked at his phone.
"11:30....Well for one whats open then. Also it might be a little ya know late..." She raised an eyebrow skeptically. She wasn't tired, and she wanted to be with him tonight yeah. But she didn't wanna seem clingy ...or desperate. "Its up to you. We can etheir wait, or find something to do now." She gave him a sweet look as if asking Do you really wanna spend time with me? Her hazel eyes danced in the light glow off of his phone, as she placed a hand on her own left back pocket to make sure hers was still there. A habit by now.

Heat rose up into Michio's cheeks as Talli kissed his cheek. The blush only got worse when she called him adorable. He didn't get that compliment a lot. Actually, he never got it at all unless it came to baby pictures. Normally he got 'You're so sexy.' or 'I want you.' and the ever popular 'Take me I'm yours.', but adorable? It was strange, but for some reason Michio liked that a lot more than any of the other compliments. It might have just been because it was different, but if Michio was going to put money on it he would guess that it was just because it came from Talli's mouth.
Michio reached back around and manuevered his bright cell phone that had just started rining again into his jean pocket. Yeah right, like he was going to talk to his sisters when he had Talli alone and she had just agreed to go on a date with him. Come on, he could be a little slow sometimes but he wasn't THAT dumb.
He let a few chuckles escape his throat when Talli said it was late. He shook his head in disagreement with her statement. "The night is still young! Besides plenty of places are open like...uhm..." Michio paused trying to think of the places that he'd been to so far during his stay in Ryo. Well there was the gay bar, the 16+ club, the 18+ club...damn. He had only been to the places that weren't exactly the best for dating. "Uhm.. I don't know.." He thought for a few more moments and shrugged his shoulders. With a smile, Michio reached down and grasped Talli's hand again in his.
"But we can find somewhere."

Talli laughed and watched the way he blushed. It was just too cute! She'd have to do that more often...a lot more often. Raising an eyebrow as Michio slid his ringing phone back into his pocket, she gave him the all to classic huh look. "Aren't you going to, I dunno...answer that?" Her eyes had a skeptical gleam to them, as if this was all to good to be true. It kinda was... But before she could think twice about anything he told her they'd find something and had her hadn in his. Her brain was now currently mush. Stuttering lightly she told him "I'm yours then...lead the way..." He eyes danced in the dim light hoping she didn't sound...easy or slutty or whatever else saying I'm yours implied. She just honestly couldn't think of a better way to put it. She was like putty right now. He could throw her off a bridge but as long as he was holding her hand or making that cute blush she'd gladly go over the edge. This pull was was stronger than ever now...

Michio reached his arm around again and pressed the button that shut the volume on his phone completely off. He felt it vibrate against his buttox once more before stopping altogether. He shook his head in response to her question. "Of course not. First of all it'd be rude to you. And second of all it's just Meiying." Honestly you'd think the girl couldn't survive one night with panicing that I'm getting myself into trouble.
Michio could tell that when Talli said 'I'm yours then' she didn't mean what the people he dated normally meant. She wasn't like that. He hadn't known her for long, but he could tell that she wasn't like that at all. And if he was wrong then he would have been more than surprised.
Michio continued to hold onto her hand. A good thing about Michio was when he was nervous his palms didn't sweat. He guessed that she already inferred that he was nervous, but sweaty palms would just increase her knowledge.
"Well we could find somewhere to eat." Michio thought of the places that were open at the time of night. He didn't see why places like that would close. Surprisingly on Ryo most people were nightowls and the restaurants would probably get more business at night time. Michio was silently thankful for that. "We could see a movie...go to a club.." Said Michio listing off the possible things they could do at 11:30 at night.
"Or I guess we could just walk around."

Talli raised an eyebrow. "Well I don't mind rude and shes your sister....Isn't there a chance it could probably be important?" Her hazel eyes glittered in questions. Talli laughed as he racked his brain for something to do. "Doesn't matter to me. Just remember prince charming Cinderellas magic runs out at midnight!" She made a mock scared look but only managed to giggle cutely. "You choose what we do. I trust your choice." She smiled brightly at him and gave his hand a slight squeeze.
