Treading The Unknown

"Only if you buy more than fifty dollars worth of items," she said as she looked at him then crossed her legs warming her hands in front of the heater, " she let her gaze wander over his features and smiled a little, "Did you dream of me?" she asked coyly.

---

He smiled a little then nodded, "Yep, I'll get you some tylenol - take it before you leave," he reminded her as he set it out on the dining table with a bottle of water then began to make himself something to eat.

He smirked a little and turned towards the parking lot, but pulled into a space. "Nope, was I supposed to?" He asked cheekily. "But I'm sure I was on your mind," He said, looking out the window before turning to her.

---

She came out of the bathroom and set the clothes onto the bed before gathering her stuff. She walked into the room and took the medicine, finishing the water and making sure a car was outside for her. Even if it wasn't there she would rather wait in the cold. "Thanks, see you." She said, heading toward the door.

She hit his arm, "It's rude to lie," she said to him rolling her eyes a little as she unbuckled the seatbelt then looked at him, "I'll have you know I slept like a baby," she told him with a small smile then looked at him, "My name is Lyanna by the way," she said as she looked at him then, "we were never fully introduced,"

---

He nodded, "Alright see you tonight at Al's Sandwich shop," he said after her as he peeked around the corner "Then we can go to the fair, be careful," he said to her then smiled to himself as he mixed the eggs and veggies.

She nodded a little and shut the door behind her, walking to the front door and going downstairs. The car hadn't arrived yet, but she was content to wait. She wasn't used to the attention he was giving her, and it was confusing her.

---

"Yuta," He said, reaching over and undoing the seat belt. "Where will you be tomorrow night?"

She nodded a little, "I'll be in my dorm room bored out of my mind- everyone is studying for finals this week so I'm gonna be extremely bored," she pouted as she looked at him, "Just me a six pack of beer and netflix, what about you?"

"I'll be at a club, seven fifty eight to be exact. But if you'd rather be with Netflix, I understand. There will be other women to distract me there." He said to her, teasing her slightly.

She looked at him, "Is this your way of inviting me out?" she said as she looked at him then grinned, "I suppose I'll have to pull out all the stops, I'll be there, which club is it?" she asked him as she looked at him and grabbed her purse off the middle console.

"Club 758," He said to her. "I'll be there around ten," He shrugged. "Im sure Netflix is tempting but I think I'll be more fun," He grinned, leaning over and brushing his lips against hers.

Lyanna smiled a little then nodded leaning forward to press her lips against his, "I guess I'll see you tomorrow," she said as she pulled back and wiped his bottom lip of her lipstick then smiled. "Thanks for the ride,"

Rowan walked into the sandwich shop with a level of unease about her. Normally she would have moved on by now, and she didn't want to lead on anyone. She was clear, and she liked it. She saw him sitting down and walked to the back, sitting in the chair across from him. "Hi, am I late?" She asked him, looking at the menu in front of him.

He smiled a little as he looked up, "Nope, not late," he said as he looked at her then sipped his sweet tea then motioned to the waitress, "did you get lost anything?" he asked as he looked at her and ordered himself another tea since he was almost done with that one. "I ordered us some garlic bread as an appetizer, is that okay?"

---

Lyanna woke up late, it was almost time for her to head out to the club and she wasn't sure what she was doing - she'd never chased a guy before, most of the time they did all the work. She pulled on the bodycon dress and some heels; she'd seen this club before - it was really nice filled with girls dressed way more scantily than she would be. She put her hair up and put in earrings then did her makeup.

She nodded and took a sip of the water in front of her, looking around. "So, do you want me to come back to your place after this?" She asked softly, looking around the restaurant.

---

He hung out by the bar, flirting harmlessly with the women nearby but not making a move on any of them. He was curious to see if she would show up, but if she didn't he would have other options for later.

"If you want to," he said to her smiling a little, "I just really wanted to talk with you again, you were pretty funny last night but I'll blame it on the alcohol unless you're sense of humor really is centered around dick jokes,"

---

She climbed out of the taxi and made her way into the club letting them stamp her hand, she made her way to the bar to order her first shot of the night then looked surprised when a guy threw down cash to pay for her drink, "I suppose now I'll owe you a dance for that drink?" she said raising a brow - he was handsome but he definitely wasn't who she was here to see. She took the shot without issue then tapped the bar for a second one ready to pay for it but the guy put more money down.

"I'm not leaving with you tonight no matter how drunk I am - you realize this right?"" but the guy just laughed, she took her shot then walked away heading to the dance floor.

"When I'm drunk there's no telling what I'll say," She said sheepishly. She sighed and took a long drink of her water before looking at him. "So then how did we meet? At the party?" She asked curiously.

---

He started dancing with one of the girls from the bar, seeing as she walked into the club. He watched but didn't immediately go over to her, noticing a guy following her into the club. He walked away from the girl he had danced with and went over to her, moving behind her. "You attract attention wherever you go, don't you? That guy seems to have the wrong idea."

She smiled a little when she heard his voice then sighed,"Hm we wouldn't want that now would we?" she asked as she danced against him then wet her lips, "he bought me my first two drinks I won't complain - he probably just wants me to go home with him tonight," if things were different she might have went home with that guy - he was cute enough and seemed determined but she didn't want him.

---

He nodded, "You came up to me, and then I bought you a burger and you couldn't say no," he said to her smiling a little, "After you at you were kind of tired so I brought you back to my place to sleep it off, but you raided my drawers for clothes before you passed out,"

She laughed out loud, needing to cover her mouth to hide it. "Sorry, I can get a bit crazy, but it's fun. Though I don't remember much next morning," She said, spinning a napkin under her finger. "So then, you asked me out to dinner?"

---

"Too bad," He smirked, running his fingers along her sides. "Your next drink is on me, get what you want."

She smiled a little and turned in his arms, "In that case I want a long island iced tea," she murmured as she stroked her fingers through his hair then barely kissed him before leading him to the bar. "So, whats your major?" she asked as she looked at him and got the bartenders attention.

---

He smiled, "Yeah, I did and you said something along the lines of, as long as vthere is something in my mouth I don't care, and I think the couple behind us was scandalized," he said to her grinning.

"That's awesome," She laughed a little. "Shocking innocent people is a passion of mine." She grinned, drinking her water. "I'm kinda surprised you asked me out. I don't think I'm your type. In fact I usually steer clear of your type for a handful of reasons."

---

"Film," He said, leaning against the counter and looking at her. "You?" He asked, tapping on the counter and sliding his card across.

She smiled, "Veterinary science, thats where the money's at and... cute animals," she said as she looked at him with a small smile then adjusted her skirt and gasping when a guy hauled out and slapped her ass. "ow," she whined rubbing her back side then shoving the guy off her before rolling her eyes. "Why do they think thats funny? It's not,"

---

He smiled a little as laughed a little, "Whys that? You seemed to like me well enough last night, despite it being mostly for food," he said as he lifted his brows then sipped his drink ordering a second appetizer, "You like chicken right? I was thinking maybe we could go get chinese food tomorrow for lunch I know this place, if you havent noticed i like eating out," he said to her.

She opened her mouth to speak but closed it a second later. She didn't date and this felt a lot like it. But he was nice and she didn't want to hurt him. At the same time she didn't want to lead him on. "I work tomorrow, but also I'm not sure if that is a good idea." She said softly.

---

He looked up and glared, moving and shoving the guy out of the way. "Hands off," He said angrily, turning back to look at her. "Come on," He said, walking over to a booth.
