John looks at her and smiles a devilish grin, "I was hoping to take you to the dance."
With the suggestion of leaving John gets an idea, "Why don't we ask James if he can teleport us out of here and pick us up later. We could go to the mall or to someplace nice to eat. What do you think?"
Sarah sat up shaking her head, "Well I don't know, I think Jimmy would be a little mad about that if I went to the dance with you and not him. Tell you what, if Jimmy can't go then I will go with you," she jokes.
She stands up, eats another cookie, and makes her way for the door, "Come on!" She leads John outside, the sun blazes in the sky, but the soft canopy of trees, makes the heat somewhat bearable, as she walks lazily along the path.
"So let me get this straight," she says, "I bet you still don't have a date, and time is running out, but maybe dances are not your thing. They aren't mine either, but everyone else will be, so I figure why not right?" she says with a shrug,
"Or is it hat you really want to go with me, and you were not joking back there?" she says mentally.
James
James snatches up the pass card, and bounces from roof, to roof, with great speed, all the while. He makes it to the Stadium easily enough, and Billy greets him near a communications terminal, the two exhanging pleasantries, before James is on his way, trying to find a place to get some flowers.
He walks in, and looks at a variety of flowers both native and foriegn, as the shopkeep busies herself with a virtua-net game, paying little mind to the customers, as James walks around. He passes by a woman with long white hair, and soft skin, she smiles to James, and pauses a moment as the two settle on the same display, "Umm excuse me," her voice is soft, and heavily accented, perhaps Russian, "I don't mean to intrude, but what do you think of this one, I am trying to find something that will add a little color to my place," she gestures to a smattering of blue and red flowers of various types.
She is dressed in tight black hiphugging capri pants, and a thin white mesh shirt with the words, "Tease" written on them. Her hair ius in a pony tail, and she currently wears shades, which she casually removes to reveal blue eyes, as she considers her question.
For some reason the woman looks familiar to James...
