Vejjen's eyes widened when the girl began to flirt with him, his cheeks adopted a slight reddish hue. His heart sank slightly as she began to leave, he tried to reach and grab her sleeve, calling out, "Hey, why don't you and I get an ale or something", but it was too late, she was already swallowed up in the crowd. Being a guard he stumbled across all kinds of things, drunks, beggars, people who thought they were dogs, extremely unintelligent fugitives, but, he'd never been approached like that. Guards weren't respected that way, they were feared, any act of kindness would usually only lead one to believe they were trying to get something in return.

Vejjen turned around, three guards were laughing hysterically behind him. "Your redder than my grandmother was when she found me hidden stash'o'magic beans...if you know what i mean", a guard laughed.

"Vejjen, my friend, anytime a woman does that, she's just trying to set you off your game, or she wants a favour done for her", another guard chuckled.

"W-why couldn't she have just, found me...um...interesting, you know, I'm young...and all that", Vejjen exclaimed, studdering, trying to level his confidence.

"Aww, cheer up mate, we'll go for ale tonight, the four of us, aye?", the last asked rhetorically patting Vejjen on the back and resuming watch.

Vejjen sighed and did the same, he didn't even have her name...
