Out and About MeiBoxTop
Prior to a particular incident, albeit after a meeting with a specific female, Mei finds herself at Moonbucks once again. This time, it wasn't so late into the evening, and truth be told, the weather was a lot better than the time she'd come before. As usual, she'd parked her car outside, went into the building, and went to get something before she settled. There wasn't too much of a build up of people waiting to be served, thus she wasn't waiting for too long. Much to the exactitude of her new friend from before, she got a cinnamon bun. Yet, she as well got her gingerbread latte, which proved to be something she liked a lot. She would definitely have to call her Mom and tell her to pick one of these up, since she felt that it was nice to keep connected with family, especially around the holidays; hence of course why the beverage was marked seasonal.

When she takes a seat, she places down a boo on the table that is decorated by pictures of various flowers. It is a hard covered and thick book to say the least. It seemed to have relevance to flora, or it was just painted with those for decoration. To follow this, she begins to copy something down from it when she flips to a specific page number. Of course, she is equipped with a small notebook and pen. Something certainly did appear to be on her mind.

Walking into the building I moved to the counter, smiling gently at the attendant. Not long after placing my order I picked up the slice of pumpkin bread and hot chocolate, before moving to sit in my usual booth. Coffee in nearly every form was something I avoided because I didn't enjoy the extra high it gave. However it was still fun to come into a place like this and watch people.

Today in particular my eyes found themselves locked on a cute young woman who looked to be about my age. She had a book in front of her and what looked like some kind of latte or possibly an espresso. But that would have to be determined, if I had the balls to get up and go talk to her. Not likely, since I didn't have what it took to talk to any girl besides my sister. Even 'Panty' and 'Stocking' were difficult to talk to and I was getting pretty familiar with them.

Take it in, dumb ass. Let's see, we have here. She's reading a book on flowers. Herbalist? Florist? She's got a cinnamon bun, so she seems to enjoy sweet stuff. Interesting enough, and she's cute. Yeah, she's taken. No chance there Leon, thanks for playing. Oh well, maybe next time. But we'll see soon enough.

Mei continues to write down a few notes. It wasn't like she was just jotting things down, it was more like she was manually writing some sort of essay. Perhaps lightly referencing the context of the book. Studying? It wasn't specifically decipherable; she did look to be around an age that may have just passed highschool. It may be plausible to assume that she'd been preparing for college or university. The only thing her interests currently seem to pertain to is botany overall. Or at least, that is what could be derived from external surveying.

She reaches for her latte with the hand equipped with her writing utensil. She almost knocks the latte over, but holds it steady with her hand. Close call; that would have been bad. She does however drop the utensil she was writing with. It plummets and hits the ground, and rolls gradually towards a male who had chosen to take a seat on a booth. Mei blinks several times, moving her latte ahead of her a bit. She definitely didn't want to take anymore chances at spilling it. She stands up, and her heed is placed upon the pen. Thusly, she begins to walk over to go get it.

Hearing the sound of the pen hitting the ground my eyes glance down at the floor. Quirking an eyebrow I watch it roll over to me. Slipping my drink back so I didn't spill it, I leaned down, picking the pen up. Glancing at it I blinked when I noticed she was standing there beside me. I stare at her, my face neutral as I watch her.

On the outside I'm as cool as a cucumber but on the inside it's anarchy. My heart pounds as she approaches. No matter how much you work at it, the geek inside you never stops being who he is. Especially when a lovely young lady approaches. I blink realizing that I haven't said or done anything. It felt like eternity. Had I been dumb enough to sit there silently staring at her with her pen in my hand?!

Gulping lightly I smile gently at her, holding the pen up to her, offering it to her.

"Y-you dropped this." I said, silently thanking God that my voice didn't crack.

Several blinks ensue as a mildly odd moment seems to pass. She stands there, and she almost begins to question if it were to be handed back. Her expression seems to be somewhat blank, as she holds her hands together behind her back. Then, she is offered the pen after the brief period of gazing. She notes subconscously the idiosyncrasies she could spot as of yet.

"Um," She begins, extending her hand to take the pen. "thank you." She gingerly says, taking the writing utensil into her grasp. Mei didn't just want to awkwardly come over and take her pen. During the time which she'd previously been awaiting the pen to be handed to her, she did survey him a bit visually. Not to the overly notable extent.

"Are...you alone? If you need company or something, there's a seat next to mine over there you could take up..." Mei offers, remaining polite and abiding closely to her humble etiquette. She wonders what type of person he is; mean or nice, he currently seemed to be a reasonable person. So she doubted it was the former..

Okay, she invited you to sit with her. Um... Alright well accept. What's wrong with you accept. ACCEPT HER OFFER!

The thoughts running through my head make me blush lightly as I rub the back of my head. Wow, the first time a girl's asked me to sit with her. Dammit! Stop sitting there staring at her and get up!

Nodding gently I smiled at her before picking up my plate of pumpkin bread and my hot chocolate before moving to the seat she indicated.

Now tell her your name. DO IT YOU FUCKING PUSSY! TELL HER YOUR FUCKING NAME! You don't deserve a penis...

My thoughts become depressed as I sit there, still unable to find my voice beyond the sentence earlier. Mentally I'm beating myself up as I take the seat she indicated. Sighing I smile at her and nod gently.

"I'm Leon. What's your name?" I ask, mentally doing a joyful jig.

Mei lightens a bit as she nods, a bit happy that she'd have some company. The amount of writing she was doing, pertaining to flora presumably, was beginning to wear mind thin. To paraphrase, she'd gotten bored with it. She adds a little bit of pep to her walk as she makes her way back to her original seat. She takes a seat, and gives a brief sigh of relief. As he takes a seat, she picks up her cinnamon bun, and takes a small bite of it.

She is notably attentive as she looks towards her new acquaintance. Her personality does seem pretty upbeat, albeit most of the time very tranquil. Mei would then take a sip of the latte, before then being posed with a question. "I'm Mei. It's nice to meet you, Leon." She states respectively, giving a smile as she places her latte back down. It only takes her a moment to conjure something in her mind to attempt to spark a bit of conversation.

"Do you come around here often?" She asks curiously, tilting her head a bit. Mei may have not seen him before, but that didn't mean that he hadn't been around here before, so she was wondering.

"Yeah. I live not far from here so I come in to get something to drink every day after my morning jog. You?" he asked, smiling gently.

It was getting easier to talk to her, though I found it hard to do while looking at her. Looking down at my pumpkin bread I smiled and bit into it before sipping at the hot chocolate. I sigh lightly, not sure why I was sitting here talking to her, or why she was even giving me the time of day. I mean it wasn't like I was the kind of guy beautiful girls went for anyway. Everyone called me 'geek boy' for crying out loud. Though that didn't start until 'Panty' and 'Stocking' called me that.

But here I was, sitting next to a beautiful girl around my age, by all appearances, and she wasn't screaming and running off. She wasn't even telling me to go screw myself or anything! She was being civil! Wait... Am I dreaming? Or is this some kind of trap? Kisuke's gonna come out of that fucking kitchen and take a swing at me I know it.

Initially before her response, Mei takes another sip from her latte. This was probably the second time she's had a beverage of this nature, and the second time she's gotten this type. "Well..." She begins, tapping her pen lightly against the table.
"I'm come here some of the time. I'm not really from around here myself. I just stop here every now and then to work on a project and get something to eat and drink." Mei says. She surveys the area, giving it a general scan with her eyes. "Nice place, though. Wish I came here more often." From where she came from, there were plenty of intriguing things, but sometimes this place had actual live music played and it was just about as entertaining as it was simultaneously distracting. Gingerly, she laughs.
Mei would wonder to herself if she would make an additional friend here. Last time she was here, she had made one. Perhaps she would be surprised to see that the community, judging by how many acquaintances she had been making, was so notably humble.

"It's a nice place. I come in every now and then to enjoy a cup of hot chocolate or an iced hot chocolate. Never really come here to do work, my school work gets taken care of rather quickly, so there's nothing for me to really do here. Though I ought to bring my sketch book. Who knows, I might find something worth drawing, you know?" I ask, smiling at her gently as I look her over.

Still she's being nice to me, and no trap was sprung yet at least. But if there is one, then there's no way I'd ever see it coming at this rate. She's either honestly this nice or she's trying to get me to lower my guard. The difficult thing is figuring out what's the truth and what isn't. She seemed to genuinely be nice, and I really had no reason not to believe her until any trap was sprung. And it wouldn't take long to get through with any beat downs that were needed. I could fight rather well, and by enhancing my strength with the 'red shift' I would be more than a capable opponent for any of my classmates to fight.

     Mei nods in general agreement, especially in response to the conclusive question she'd been posed with. "You draw?" She asks, her eyes gleaming a fair amount of curiosity. Eyes kept firmly upon him in an inquisitive gaze, her subordinate action is to reach for her cinnamon bun. She takes a small bite out of the cinnamon peppered pastry before placing it idly back down upon the table, onto its respective nest-esque napkin.
     "I don't have anyone in my family who draws, but I can definitely appreciate the talent. It just looks so hard to do." Mei admittedly states, subconsciously wishing she had taken up an art class when she'd been back in school. Her words are sincere; if his words were true, this was likely the first artist she'd conversed to directly. A bit ensnared in though, she would look towards her book. She did have a moderately frequent tendency to be lost in momentary thought. Though, she refocuses her attention upon Leon, parting her lips to speak once again.
     "I kind of wish I could do that." She narrates with a sheepish laugh.

"Yeah I can draw. Though I'm not all that good." he said, nodding at her lightly. "As for you? I'm sure you can draw, you just need to practice it. I do it a lot in class so I'm almost always practicing. Certainly you have sometime you can spend on it. You just need to realize it's around."

Why was it getting so easy to talk to her? I've never talked to a woman this way! Woah, she's hot. Dammit, stop it! There's no way she's single, dammit, so stop thinking like that! This is exactly what they want you doing! You fall for her, ask her out, and then she ditches you in public just for kicks. It's not the first time you idiot. Now focus, and keep calm! She cannot suspect you know what's going on. So breathe, and keep your focus. You can't let your guard down, not for anything.

Mei gingerly nods in response. "You're right. I suppose if we want to do something, then we all usually go out of our way to do it." She says before taking a sip of the latte; it'd been getting to about mid way down. The cinnamon bun was being reduced pretty promptly as well. She pushes an insistent, stray strand of hair behind her ear before smiling lightly, peeling her attention momentarily towards the latte.

"I always used to read books in class; it wasn't just a bad habit for not getting much work done, but the teacher found it odd how it wasn't a magazine or something, but informational books about flowers." Mei sighs lightly, presumably recalling some undesired comments her teachers may have preached. She takes another bite of the cinnamon bun, before realizing it'd be the last bite. "And wow, I really didn't expect to finish this quickly."

Sitting there I stared at her, listening to her story, as he nodded. It was hard for himself to stay focused in class because he found it boring. For whatever reason, no matter what they were teaching, it always felt like he knew it already. He understood her pretty well it seemed. But then again, it was almost too easy. Nearly anyone at the school could tell her these things, but as he sat there listening to her it sounded like she was being honest.

He finished his pumpkin bread and hot chocolate, before he stood up. He smiled gently at her and held his hand out to her.

"I have to be going, but hopefully we'll see each other again sometime. After all today was pretty interesting. I'll bring my sketch book so you can see some of my work, Mei."

She takes a conclusive sip of her latte before momentarily scanning the general area for a garbage. Though, her surveying progress is interrupted by his voice. A general nod is given in his trajectory as she closes up the book before her. "I should be going, too. If I don't now, it'll probably be dark by the time I get back to where I live." Mei recites, standing up from her position and briefly revealing that she lives a place at least fairly distant from Gothstone. Her words, of course, are sincere. Holding the book underneath her arm, she grasps the empty cup in her hand. With her free hand, she would extend her hand to him as well to complete the warranted, assumed handshake.

"I look forward to it, Leon." She commences walking towards the door, not after depositing the empty cup into the nearest garbage. "Maybe I'll bring some of the flowers I've grown to show you, too. What do you say?"

"I'd be honored." he said, smiling gently as he walked with her outside. "Take care of yourself, you hear me Mei? Don't let anything happen to you before we see each other again."

He smirked at her before he started walking away, his hands slipping into his pockets. He yawned lightly as he went, happy he'd made a friend. She'd been nice enough, and his instincts had been wrong about her. He'd been wrong to suspect her of doing anything at all. But at the same time he had plenty of reasons to be paranoid. But not with her, not anymore. He was going to enjoy being her friend.
