Someone as nice, pretty, and smart as you? Well...that doesn't make any sense." Damon didn't really understand how people could be so oblivious to someone as good as Alex.

Damon placed his hands on either side of her shoulders so that she'd look at him. "That doesn't bother me," Damon said with a little grin. "Every relationship is different and unique to the people involved in it, so we're free to take the whole thing at whatever pace we want to." Damon was just a teen during his first real relationship, but it had last three years, and the break-up was...well...it had not been pretty. His fault for dating a muggle that was closed minded, but that was done with so no need to bring up old memories.

Damon turned to look at the game. "Maybe we should just move on. The carnie didn't see me do it so they might think I cheated or something anyway," Damon said with a little laugh. "What game would you like to play next?" he asked, taking a step so that he was next to Alex before reaching down and taking hold of her hand. He hoped she didn't mind....
Alex laughed at his surprise. "Yeah, never. Pathetic, right?" It was crazy. She liked this guy in school. She thought he liked her too but turned out that he liked someone else..and that someone else was a girl she had known. After that drama, she went through a really depressing phase. Ugh. It even hurt to think about it. So anyway..she'd avoided relationships/dating since then. What was the point in just getting hurt? But..she liked Damon. She admired and respected him. She looked at him with a grin. "Nice, pretty and smart? You don't have to be so polite, you know." She might be smart but she wasn't pretty. Not at all.

Alex was delighted. "Okay, then." She gave him another hug. She looked at him and asked, "Are you sure?" She felt absolutely sure. She wanted to give it a try and she wanted to know if he felt the same way. She was getting into something that was scaring her a lot but it was also exciting in a way.

Alex grinned. "Yeah, but it's sad though. I would have liked to see your prize." Um. What game? "Well, I decided hoopla so you can choose whatever you want." She smiled when he held her hand and she slowly intertwined her fingers with his.
