Fasha was half way to the fair. The bat-winged girl would have been there faster if she were able to fly and not be seen. She knew Kitty would be a good 15 minutes behind. Kitty liked to play with her food first. It was one of her many neko traits.
She stops for a few minutes to just watch all of the "bunnies" running around in their costumes. There was a small girl dressed as an angel and what seemed to be her best friend dressed as a devil. They were holding hands. Across the street she saw a boy around her age, maybe older, in a ninja suit.
She recognized the outfit right away. He was dressed as Scorpion from the Mortal Kombat game series; her favorite. She instantly noticed his burning green eyes. They were the perfect shade of green. She thought of her friend's words.
"Fasha you have to be more assertive girl! You ain't never gonna get a guy like that. You always hide behind me and junk! Get a backbone!"
The winged heroine slowly approached the boy. She was acting like she only went to the house for candy at first. As she was thinking of what to say he walked up. "Hey! I really like your costume! Those wings are really intricate!"
She stood like a deer in a pair of headlights at first. Then she heard Kitty's voice in her head "He just spoke to you child! Use your words!"
At last she found her voice and said, "U-um I'm sorry, I spaced out….Thank you! I really like your costume too. Scorpion is my favorite Ninja from the Mortal Kombat series." She made sure not to do that thing where she shifts her weight from foot to foot. She might move her wings that way.
"Wow! You are the only person who knew who I was tonight! High-five me!" She tentatively high-fived him and promptly looked down, her face a bright shade of red. "Hey, don't hide your face. It's not like I said I wanted to make out with you or anything!"
He laughed and she thought "that is a really nice laugh!" he looked at her with a coy smile playing at his lips, "I know my voice is entrancing, women can't help but fall in love the first time they hear it. It isn't your fault." At this comment Fasha couldn't help but be speechless. He was so attractive and he just pointed out how irresistible he was. Heck he was catnip for women.
After this was a very awkward pause. He was now blushing a bit himself and running his fingers through his hair. A few minutes before he had taken the top of his mask off. His hair was jet black.
Before she could say anything else a guy calls from a distance, "Hey! Let's go! We're gonna be late for the party bro!" He looks at her shyly and says, "Sorry. I gotta go or I'm gonna be late. Chet is gonna kill me if I don't start walking in a few seconds! Haha! I might see you around, I might not. Don't stop thinking about me gorgeous! Bye!"
She stammers as he sprints away, "Hey! What is your…..name." She sits on the curb for a few more minutes, reflecting. Her mind races, going only in circles, "He called me gorgeous! AND he was really hot!" It isn't like her to think such girly thoughts but she couldn't help it. It was her first compliment from a guy. As she began to walk she hears the other guy, Chet talking.
She tails them for a bit to hear him say "OH MY GOD! Dude, who was that chick? She looked amazing! What? You didn't even catch her name? You are so lame! I would have been like, hey girl, name, number, and we are going out on Friday!" She started walking again, towards the fair, and told herself, "I WILL find him again. I have to."
