Nathan/Zero
”Ah” Nathan interrupted, ”but you forget one important factor” he continued with his patent-pending cheeky smile, ”you have to be there so I can you tease and make me look even better – else it is no fun!”
The last part he said with a genuinely fake smile that could be spotted miles away, but of course that was the very point of it: he liked to see how far he could push those around him.
However, he didn’t get a chance to see what this conversation could develop into because just as he had just let the last word escape his lips, Leila decided to stumble through a rather messy sentence – that of course immediately caught young Nathan’s attention.
"I... No, no plans. Not until next week anyway." Leila spoke, but before he could comment on her alarmingly suspicious sentence she decided to deflect the attention towards him – or at least that was how Nathan understood it as she added with a smirk: "Your level of boredom must be really high if you want to hang out with me".
Nathan didn’t reply instantaneously, instead he gracefully jumped off his board and at the same time he activated his powers for a split second, manipulating the vectors of his board to gracefully jump up into his outreached hand – it wasn’t anything incredible or incredibly unnatural, it was perhaps just 1% off of what a normal human was capable off. In fact, it was done rather gracefully – if he had to say so himself.
After having performed this incredibly graceful feat he once again turned his attention towards the fellow Child of the Dark beside him. “Ah, it seems like you caught me red handed!” he spoke in a sweet, innocent kind of way. “I am indeed very bored – all the ‘projects’ I had been working on for the past two days have somehow turnout out to be various degrees of failures, so instead of staring into the wall back home, I decided to get out for a cup of coffee”
His tone had slowly turned more and more normal, almost as if he was mindlessly stating the facts of his life, but as he ended his small speech his attention once again became a shining spotlight directed straight towards Leila.
“However,” he began, “I had actually decided to head over to one of my favorite shops before you passed by my life just moments ago, though now that I have met you I think I have found something much more interesting”.
His sweet, yet somehow chill inspiring smile that shone down upon the girl besides him could best be translated into the look of a cat just before it would pounce in and push its owner’s favorite cup off the table. “Why did you stammer just before?” he said, smile still painted beautifully on his face, “are you hiding something from me? You know I hate it when you hide something from me!”
The last part was added in a comically intense tone that would make any soap-opera or teen-drama on television to instantly cast him in a leading role – or at least that is what Nathan would like to think.
