Claire laughed when he said Snow White. "Well for one, I am not as cool as Snow White." She smiled and started to walk around with the boy. She thought for a second, because she wasn't really sure what she liked to do for fun. It had been forever since she had done something fun. "Well, let me think." She paused. "I like to swim, be outside, hunt, try or learning new things, meet nice people..." She trailed off, trying to make herself interesting. "I did like to read sometimes, and technology always was interesting for me." She half smiled, knowing that what she said wasn't the smartest, or clearest answer. "I don't know really, I haven't done something fun in a long time." She admitted.

She had no idea way she was being so open with him, it wasn't like her. She always had her walls around her high and strong, not letting anybody in. She felt good around him though, that they had something. She wasn't sure what it was, but she liked the feeling. She wanted to be close to someone, but it had been so long since she had felt anything for anyone but hate and coldness. She thought that maybe, she would give him a chance.

Sean looked at her and blushed as a thought crossed his mind. Stuttering slightly, he said, "Well, I think you're much cooler than Snow White...prettier too." Why had he said that? What a dumb thing to say. "Er, forget that, I let my thoughts slip-" Eh, what the hell? No point in hiding his inner monologue after he blurted it out. Ah well, she was pretty cute. So it wasn't like he didn't mean it.

Hurriedly changing the subject, Sean said, "Technology huh? Just so happens, I have a secret I'd like to share with you." He felt safe enough to disclose this to her, mostly because it wasn't like there was any danger. The worst case scenario is he would have to leave the school and change his name. All his assets were secure.

"Well, using my abilities," the young man continued, dropping his voice low and leaning in, "I've become sort of a cyber vigilante. I've drained the resources of every known mob boss in the city where I lived through their banks, and then proceeded to corrupt their data and exposed them to the police. After I did that I sort of bought out a whole bunch of companies, and er...I've begun to fund different things. I just wish I could do more, it feels so useless since the biggest stuff I can't do anything about." Sighing with a slightly defeated look, he pulled back and looked up at the ceiling, still walking, his hands in his pockets. "It's like...I found hospitals all over the globe, practically fixed our economy, and proceeded to oust dozens of criminals. Yet, the world is still screwed. I just dunno."

She was flittered by what he had said about her, she blushed and mumbled at he was cute, too. She was curious as to what he really thought of her. She was almost bursting with excitement. She had so many questions that she badly wanted answers for. She thought of all the thing that she could ask him, but then thought that it was rude. She shook her head a bit, trying to stop feeling so weird.

She took an interest as to what he had said about what he had done. "Wow, that is pretty awesome." She smiled at him. She really did think that what he did was amazing, though she didn't want to brag too much, as if she ever did. It was if he was bringing out a softer, more hearted side of Claire. "You know, you can't always do things on your own. " she paused. " some people just can't, save the world." She sighed at what she said. She kind of wished it was that easy, that someone could change the world.

Blushing lightly, Sean turned, putting a hand on Claire's shoulder and turning her to him. Taking her hand gently he smiled and said, "We could change it together, if you wanted. I wouldn't mind having a partner...and a friend." Glancing around to make sure attention wasn't on them, he wrapped his arms around this girl. She was just so cute, he wanted to be close to her. It was an urge, more than a feeling. Like his entire body was egging him on.

"Would that be...acceptable?" he whispered.

Claire had no idea what to do. She was worried that she would flip out on him, like she would usually do to people who touched her. She was shocked by what he had done. She blushed hard when he grabbed her hand. She was practically lost for words when he put his arms around her. What was she supposed to say? Was he just charming her, or did he really want her as a partner, whatever that meant. She nodded a bit at him, letting him know that she was okay with it. "I would like that." She felt safe around him, happy to be close to him.

Tilting her head up towards him, Sean smiled. "Er...this may come off as sudden but..." he steeled his resolve. He'd never done anything like what he was about to do, so wrapped up in his virtual world, and he had no idea what he was doing. The technopath was so far out of his depth he'd washed up on land. "D-do you wanna go out sometime?" Sean stuttered the words out, clearly tripping over himself attempting not to mess up. "I mean, I don't wanna...offend you or anything I just really don't understand this dating stuff..." Sean why are you so stupid? Why? WHY?!?!! As his mental berating of his actions continued, he smiled nervously at her, awaiting a response.

She was shocked by this, as if she couldn't talk, she just stared at him. Going out with someone, meaning dating? She was a noob at this as much as he was probably. What was she supposed to say? Yeah he was cute and she barely knew him, so why did she want to say yes? Because he talked to her? Made her feel better? It was probably something like that. She open her mouth then closed it, he was making her blush, feel all tingly and special. "I-I am new to it too, so don't worry." She paused at smiled. "And yeah, why not?" She blushed a bit.

After a few seconds of nerve-wracking hesitation, Sean's mind decided to let his heart take over and throw caution to the wind. As a gigantic smile spread across this love-struck boy's face, he said, "R-really?" Almost giddy with excitement, he gazed into her eyes, gently pressing his lips against her cheek before moving it away so no one would notice. Usually a moment like this would call for aloofness, and simple thoughts, but for Sean this didn't register. He was happy. And excited. So why not show it? Besides, Claire seemed like someone who would appreciate true feelings over pretend ones.

"We can go right now," he said, the smile still there as he calmed down a notch. "Let's get some food and go for a picnic on the grounds. Then this weekend we can go literally wherever you want. Name a place and we'll go. I mean, I hate to play the 'rich' card, but if you've got it might as well use it, right?"

She smiled at him with joy and happiness, she was now extremely happy. She didn't care about anything else but what had just happened. On the inside of her mind her was screaming with over-excitement, but she didn't let it out. She didn't want to distract people from what they were doing to look at them. She nodded at him. "Yeah I would love that, I really would." She got closer to him and hugged him. She felt so different, as if she didn't need to have any walls around her, or that maybe someone else could protect her. She was a bit surprised by the kiss though, even if it was only on the cheek, but she really liked it. "Yeah lets go then." She smiled and held out her hand just encase he wanted to hold it.

Taking her hand in his, Sean smiled at her embarrassed face. It was at this point people noticed them hand in hand, but Sean didn't really care. This girl was special, he knew that. And to him, if you cared about somebody it wasn't something to hide. He walked her to the cafeteria where food was still being served, and ordered several things, from sandwiches to baked potatoes and even some fried chicken, among other things. Then, loading it all into a basket with a blanket to lay on the grass, he then took her hand again and pulled her towards the doors that led outside.

Sean let go of her hand in order to wrap an arm around her waist, pulling her to him, the basket in the other hand.

"Is uh...that alright?" he asked, not sure what her reaction would be.
