"I just thought he was a bit strange." Victor answered Lorencia. Hearing that she liked the flavor, he tried some himself. there was a tinge to it that tasted somewhat like strawberries, but overall, it tasted just like the man said it would.

Directly after taking his first lick, he felt prompted to look at Lorencia. She looked slightly different, more sparkly if you will.

"Did he? I didn't notice. He seems happy though," she giggled a little then took a couple more licks. The taste of chocolate was delicious, however it was a little odd in a way, not like the chocolates she was used to, but it wasn't bad. It was actually very good. This was a great choice.

She looked at victor, and felt her cheeks getting warmer. He was looking at her like last time, which got her to giggle, a little flustered. "Where should we go next?"

"True, but maybe he's a bit dedicated." He smiled again at her laughter, but this time it lasted a bit longer, especially when Lorencia blushed at him, what was she thinking?

"Um, maybe we can go to the pool?" He didn't know much about the ship, so he was grasping at straws, but as long as he gets to be with her, he'd be okay with it.

"After we finish our Icecream of course." He added, taking a few more licks.

"The pool sounds good," she said. She got a glance of it as she and her cousin passed by when they were looking for the speed dating room. "But didn't it say that we should be in swimming attire when we're on the deck?"

She tried to recall if what she remembered was right, but shrugged, taking Victor's hand. "We'll figure it out later. Let's have a seat over there." She smiled, gently pulling Victor along towards a table for two. It was a round, glass table. It wasn't wide, probably so couples could hold hands without stretching out too much.

Swimming attire on the deck? "We can go change if we need to." He suggested. He would be fine to wait for Lorencia.

In case that wasn't an option, he tried to think of another idea, but then she took his hand and pulled him over to a glass table. It wasn't that hard a tug, but the force made him drop his ice cream.

"Oops," he exclaimed matter-of-factly. For some reason, it didn't bother him that it fell, and he sat down opposite Lorencia on the small table.

"What happened to your--" Lorencia gasped, seeing Victor's ice cream cone on the ground where they were a few moments ago. "Oh no, did I make you drop it? I'm so sorry!" She apologized. But then she had an idea.

Bringing the ice cream cone between them, she tilted it slightly towards Victor. "I know! Here, let's share!" She offered him a smile. It was the least she could do. Plus, she felt a little flirty. That must be a good sign that she really liked the boy.

"Oh, its not that big a deal, really." He felt a bit flustered about her apologising for him dropping his icecream, and even more so when she offered her own.

So much so that without thinking, he just froze time. Taking deep breaths, and pacing in circles, he spoke to himself. Everyone else wouldn't notice the time-lapse, so he didn't bother to be quiet.

"Okay Victor, Shes just being nice. No reason to act weird, even if you do love her." He repeated to himself again and again.

Lorencia got worried. Victor just stood up and started pacing around. She drew the cone back, thinking that she must have pushed too far across boundaries. Was he mad at her? Lorencia eased into her seat a little, feeling as if her heart was just weighed down by an anchor at the mere thought.

But then he was saying something out loud which made her blush. Each repetition seemed to slow down to her perception, with everything else around them seemingly at a stand still. "S-so... you're not mad at me?" She just felt relief to hear him say that... he loved her.

"Gah!" He must have jumped to the space station. Lorencia wasn't a statue, and must have heard every word he said. Composing himself, he relaxed and answered her question. "No, why would I be mad at you?"

Looking around, he saw that everyone else was frozen, then he remembered. She was from a different dimension, so her timeline would be entirely different to what he controlled. Honestly, he was a little embarrassed that she just heard him say he loved her, but he hoped she felt the same way about him.
