Sam was having a hard time formulating his own thoughts after he told her what he thought of her. "I don't find you weird at all," Sam finally said in a seemingly confident tone. "Those quirks of your make you... You! That earing looks good on you, and your eyes gleam with beauty. (What am I even saying anymore... I need to stop or else she'll think I'm a weirdo.)" There was a short pause after his thought, and he was quietly looking around the auditorium, trying to think of other things to make his blush go away. After a few moments, the redness finally dispersed from his face.

"I'll let you know one thing about me Nika. I don't care who you are, I just like people for who they are... That's why I don't find you weird at all. I find you to be an entiretly unique person, just like the people going to Unity Academy with us." Sam gave an inviting smile to Nika. "S-so Nika... Want to go get some of whatever is cooking?"
