☀ 007 ☀

Valentine's Day is coming up in a few weeks, so I feel like it's worth asking some romance related questions. Mostly, I ask now because I'm sure I'll be busy later. I'm mostly curious.

Do you believe in love at first sight or true love? I'm not going to ridicule your answer, that would hardly be professional. Me? I can't believe such sentiments, as nice as they sound. [She'd love to believe that, but Rose was much too cynical for such rubbish. There's a lot of reasons as to why, but she isn't going to talk about those. Ever.]

If you're with someone and expecting them to do something for the occasion, what would you be expecting? I suppose I'm asking what your ideal would be. Just chocolate and flowers or the whole ten yards?

[Good grief, and it's her sensibility that's really driving this shit home for him. And embarrassing him to no end. He covers his face with his hands. Good grief, being sixteen is suffering.]

I know how deep of a bond relationships can be when they're meaningful. I've never truly had the experience myself given my stark lack of proper interaction with adults, and people in general before coming to this school, but I think I know my own feelings well enough to not say this is a superficial enjoyment. It's terribly rude and... petty, even, to spend time with a person solely because you enjoy how they look. I'm quite taken with your mind, miss Lalonde, your critical and always-thinking mind, seeping into your personality and giving you the words and wisdom of someone four times your age, yet still with the periodic childish quizzicality and curiosity of a young girl still learning. And I'm not anywhere near as good with words as you are so I'm likely making a complete fool of myself with all this.

[She's much too analytical for her own good. She can't help it!]

I apologize. I wasn't trying to make you a fool. I suppose I'm just a little skeptical since I've had plenty of people who only had interest in the surface.

Are you really sure you're interested in pursuing a relationship with me? [She holds her head up high, but she's expecting Jake to realize his folly and say no.]

[A bit of an aggravated sigh, but he's smiling at her.]

It's who you are. And seeing as that's why I'm here, right now, making a fool of myself over you, I hardly mind.

[He bites his lip, shrinking away from her a little and coloring in the face.] W-well, I'm reasonably certain that's a two-way question. I'm all for it, but... It's also your decision.

Well, you make for a rather endearing fool, then.

[She gently takes Jake's hands in her own. Hers are small compared to his.] I would very much like to pursue a relationship. [She looks up, smiling at Jake.]

[Well set his knickers on fire, his face is glowing crimson.]

Y-- truly? [A chuckle-- hopeful, but not overly so. He squeezes her fingers gently.]

[She let's out a soft chuckle.]

Ah, yes. I am just pulling your leg, Jake. I am holding your hands in my own and agreeing to this only to trick you! I am but an evil temptress stealing your heart.

[And Jake lets out another chuckle-- breathless, this time, because he can't quite believe this just happened.]

[And then he bounces just a little bit, on his toes, and in an abrupt movement he's letting go of her hands and stooping forward to hoist her into the air, spinning once and then just gathering her into a hug. He's a stupidly happy teenage boy right now, Rose.]

[Rose let's out a small gasp, before letting out an amused chuckle at the sudden affection.]

You sure do know how to sweep a lady off her feet, Jake English.
