[color=Gold]"It was fun. You can be my player 2 any time,"[/color] Nori answered with a wink.

[color=LimeGreen]"Oh, guess that means you're player one then?"[/color] His voice was teasing, a grin on his face, [color=LimeGreen]"I think I can handle being your wingman, Boss."[/color] Kyle gave a sort of pseudo-salute to her.

She bent down to grab her purse, and after a brief search pulled out a Snickers Bar, [color=Gold]"Your prize."[/color] Her smile was wide, it felt happy and frankly infectious as Kyle's own smile grew. She took his hand in her's, placing the candy bar in it and wrapping his fingers tightly around the bar, [color=Gold]"Something sweet."[/color] Her voice was playful, Kyle probably should have known that this was what she meant when they made the bet, but truthfully...he was ok with that. Since coming back to Shine City he hadn't had the opportunity to really get out and interact with anyone his age, but by some random act of fate, this girl just suddenly shows up, invites him to eat nachos and play some Mother-Trucking HotD.  It was a really fun way to spend the early afternoon and it felt good to socialize with someone again, but it felt deeper than that.  

Since their strange introduction into each other (literally), Nori's told him about her guilt of dropping another guy and Kyle's told her about him dropping out of school.  They both laid their cards on the table, both awaited judgement, and neither received punishment, but rather acceptance and understanding; he got her and she got him.  Looking at her, Kyle's heart wasn't totally sure how to handle the string of emotions playing within him.  Between the warmth of her hands around his own, the genuine smile on her face, the rosiness in her cheeks and those radiant eyes that pierced his own, Kyle thought this tattooed girl, Nori was incredibly...beautiful.

And then it happened, like a hummingbird taking a drink from a flower's nectar, Nori rocketed upwards, planting her lips for all but a second on his cheek.  His eyes widened in slight shock at the unexpected action, before settling into a star-stunned gaze.  Kyle's face became more flushed and he smiled bashfully as his eyes wandered down and away from her own, slightly embarrassed, but kind of...happy. After regaining some of his composure he looked back up towards her smiling softly, [color=LimeGreen]"Thanks Nori, I'll save it for a salty day,"[/color] he took the candy bar bent down and placed it inside of one of the outer pockets on his coat.

[color=LimeGreen]"Now then,"[/color], He started as he stood up, [color=LimeGreen]"As runner up, I think you deserve a prize too so...how about I come see your set tonight and if you're not too busy afterwards, maybe I can treat you to something-anything? Whatever you'd like, my treat."[/color]
