"Uh, hey? Can we talk?"(O/O) (OPEN)

"It's not that hard," she encouraged.

"It is for me," he muttered.

"Do you need help?"

He laughed nervously. "How would you help?"

"If you want, I can tell you what to say," she suggested.

"Okay," he allowed in a whisper.

"So, uh, you start out by saying something like… uh, you're nice or something." She blushed. "I watch a lot of movies…"

"Well," he breathed, "You look nice. You're pretty cool." He struggled. "Want to see a movie?"

She nodded shyly. "Sure, that would be fun!"

He laughed nervously, "Good, cool,"

She smiled happily. "Okay!"

"Do you—want popcorn? Because I like to sneak in candy," he spoke nervously.

"Popcorn is fine," she said, her eyes encouraging him slowly.

He exhaled slowly, "This is.. fine. It's good, yeah?" He half laughed.

"Yeah!" she chirped.

"Good," he breathed with relief.

Skip?

(Sure!)

To date?)

(Yea!)

Atlas waited anxiously, sitting in his car in her driveway.

Kallie came out of the door, dressed up and, of course, smiling happily.

He glanced up at her through the windshield, and for a second, seemed too stunned to breathe.

She skipped over to the car and pointed at the passenger seat, her face a question.

He nodded curtly.

(What about the Revolutionary one?)

She smiled and skipped over before sliding into the passenger seat. "Hi!'

Wha? XD did i forget to respond to you on there?)

"Hey," he breathed in deep.

(Yeah, XD)

"You look… kinda confused."

"I'm stunned," he murmured. "by you."

She blushed furiously. "I… uh… You are?"

"Yeah," he shrugged, and kind of his behind his jacket.
