Not the best with words? {sb}

[Erin Hackett]

"I understand. Nothing wrong with that." Erin said quickly and nodded her head several times. She didn't want Lydia to think that she meant it was bad that the other girl just mainly played computer games. That was her choice. She was missing out, but it was still her choice and Erin was not going to make her play other games that were not on a PC. They could work together to try out different games on different systems later on. Or something, Erin didn't fully know at moment, she was just making it up as she went along.

The girl was just attractive and Erin wanted to keep her eyes at the appropriate level and her mind not rolling around in that naughty part of her head. Erin started to blush when Lydia spoke up about wanting to hang out with her. "Maybe." Erin managed to say but that was about it as she was now looking away and telling herself to settle down. Yes, she just asked if they could like get a treat or something and she felt awful about it. Who asked someone if they wanted to get a treat?! Lydia was not a dog, you don't ask humans that.

"Uh, sorry. I meant like uh...do you want to go get like one of those sweet drinks, or maybe like a slice of cake...or something." Erin explained, blushing super hard. Dang it, why did she say the word treat. Things could have gone so smooth if she had said the right word. What even was the right word for the situation? She was at least smiling a little when Lydia said that she was up for hanging out at any rate. "Cool, there is a little place over there, where we can like get drinks and dessert stuff, even ice treat things." Erin said, as she started to put her handheld away.

Lydia smiled softly at the other girl's response. So it seemed that when it came to games, Erin followed the same thing that Lydia did. That made her happy. It would have absolutely sucked to her if the other girl had been one of those people who was like 'x console is the best, you're an idiot for having a different opinion' So she smiled at Erin, trying not to be too open or.. awkward with it.

Lydia giggled at Erin's reaction to her comment and smiled at her, glancing at the girl's handheld. Lydia couldn't even remember where her handheld's were in her things. She hadn't actually brought them out this trip... She was sure she had packed them, but to be fair her room was a little bit of a mess at the moment, with clothes strewn pretty much all over the place. Yeah, she would not be bringing Erin in there if they hung out.

The blonde nodded intently. "Sweet. Hmm, Yeah! I could totally go for a snack." Lydia felt kind of bad for Erin, and so intentionally pretended not to notice the blush. "Alright then, let's wander over and get a slice of cake or something." She packed up her things and slung her bag over her shoulder.

[Erin Hackett]

Lydia said she would be up for a treat and Erin was doing a victory dance in her head for a moment, and thus didn't reply right away. She often checked out of reality sometimes, came with spending most of her time in the reality of video games and well mostly being to herself. "Aw-awesome! My treat. you can get how much of whatever you want and I'll pay for it all. I might not look like it but I got money. Lots of it." Erin quickly said after she noticed the pause in her response to Lydia might have been a bit too long.

She was already done packing up her 3DS and was slipping it over her shoulder as she waited for Lydia. Her eyes could not help themselves and look over her again before she moved to head to where they could get some sweets. She was tempted to bring up that Lydia could go get changed but where they were going was not too far and there were a lot of kids that were around in their bathing suits on the main deck. Plus Erin was enjoying that view so why would she spoil it for herself? "Do you have anything in mind that you might want?" Erin asked, trying to make conversation as they walked.

[Lydia Faust]

As a girl firmly diagnosed with ADHD, Lydia could understand getting distracted and daydreaming in ones thoughts. She had even gotten pretty good at picking up on when other people did it. So when Erin did it, Lydia took the chance to risk subtly checking Erin out a little bit. The girl's features just made her smile, she loved Erin's hair, and smile, and her shape. This wasn't something she would do all that often though, she didn't want other people noticing when she was looking at them like that, it was embarrassing.

She wasn't really sure what the best reply was to Erin's comment, so she just smiled softly. A few moments later Erin asked a second question and she tilted her head. "uh. I have no clue. I guess I'll just see what they have and grab something. I don't usually eat TOO much, just 'cause I always seem to be awake and energetic anyway." She figured her bounciness must get really annoying for the people around her at times. 

[Erin Hackett]

Erin of course didn't notice that the other girl was checking her out, because she was busy off in her own little fantasy world. Plus she didn't think any real girl would ever check her out in the first place, unless it was from a distance and they didn't know her. She figured that how she got super shy and just awkward around a girl when they were close was a major turn off and not attractive at all. Only for her, because if any other girl did it, it was super cute and Erin wanted to make them feel like it was okay to be around her.

Even if she personally wanted to put space between her and them to keep her confidence yet get close because she just wanted to touch them. Not creepy, right? "O-kay." Erin responded back when Lydia didn't have any clue to what she wanted. Damn it, should have asked a better question. Erin thought to herself as he confidence started to rapidly drop over the whole situation. She just feel silent as they went over to the counter and picked up a menu. She of course handled Lydia one and gave the girl a quick smile but she stayed quite other than that.

What was she supposed to say? What could she say? She was no good with words. No good at being smooth when around a pretty girl. If they were playing a video game and could not see each other, then Erin felt like she could be something. For now she was just thinking of what sweet she wanted to get.

[Lydia Faust]

As they approached the area where they could buy sweets and drinks and various other kinds of foods Lydia smiled, quickly apon smelling them feeling that she had a craving for brownies. She figured she might as well grab some sugary stuff and nibble them with Erin, maybe relax in some shade after being in the sun for a little while.

The blonde smiled as they approached. "I guess I'll grab a brownie with ice cream and something to drink I guess. Thank you, by the way." She tilted her head towards Erin. She glanced over the drinks, being happy with her choice of food, just not sure what she should drink. 

Lydia probably would have been better off if they were chilling with a movie or a game or something to play together, but this would have to do for now. At least she was going to hang out with Erin. "I'll have a cola with that, if that's alright. What about you Erin, what are you going to eat?" She asked with a soft smile. 

[Erin Hackett]

"Oh, that sounds good." Erin spoke up, having actually heard the other girl talk when she had not been fully paying attention. That rarely happened. Normally when Erin checked out she checked out, but apparently she had checked out of checking out when she got quite and had heard Lydia even while she was out of it. "Oh, no problem. Thank you for saying yes and joining me." Erin quickly added after a moment once she realized she had not addressed everything that Lydia said. Okay, so she was still half checked out it seemed.

What was up with her? She just needed to get a snack, sit down, and focus on it to 'get normal' or something. Erin started at the menu for a moment, wondering what she wanted. Something with cherries sounded good, or at least something with cherries on top. She didn't know why she had a sudden craving for cherries but that was what she wanted. "I'm paying for the both of us." Erin spoke up to the guy behind the counter. It was an older guy and well a guy so she didn't really have a problem talking to him.

When Lydia said she wanted a cola with it, Erin didn't mind but thought that was going to be a weird combination. Brownies, ice cream, and a cola. Then again maybe it was something like root bear but with cola flavor. "I was going to get this cherry smoothie." Erin said too Lydia as she pointed to the drink and then looked up at the guy. "That will be all for us." Erin said, reaching into her pocket and pulling out the money that she owed him. She just ended up giving him her debit card to swipe because she recalled that she didn't actually ever carry cash on her.

The guy did his end of things and handed set what they had ordered on the counter after a moment. Erin was quick to grab her drink, but hesitated before she tried it. "Uh...would you um...like a sip?" Erin asked as she held out her drink towards Lydia, the straw facing in her direction.

[Lydia Faust]

She smiled to the girl next to her. Erin really was kinda awesome. She was really nice to Lydia, and pretty. And into all of the cool games, and she made Lydia feel like broadening her gaming variety. The blonde observed the other girl subtley, smiling at the little halo of sunlight around Erin's light coloured hair. She really did like Erin's hair, it was super pretty .

"No problem!" She grinned. Lydia did find a it a little odd that Erin payed by card. It wasn't too expensive. Even Lydia could have comfortably afforded it, and that was just on her allowance. She didn't pay too much mind to it. Maybe Erin just preferred it to using cash. Lydia smiled as they took their things and went to sit down. She took a tiny nibble of her food and sip of her drink. She would usually have scarfed this down pretty quick, but she was trying to be a little more... lady like.

The blonde smiled and nodded. "Sure, I'll try it!" she gave a tiny sip from the straw, not much again, just enough for flavour. "It's nice. I'll think about ordering one of those next time. Next time I'll treat you." She winked to the other girl.

She tapped her fingers on the table excitedly. "SO. When and where should we game Erin?" She questioned excitedly.

(Finish?)

[Erin Hackett]

Erin smiled back when Lydia assured her that it was no problem. Erin only ever carried a few bucks on her, mostly using her card for everything. Again it was just easier for when she was back in Japan to pay for things that way. If someone brought it up, she probably would start carrying cash around on her, but for now card was the way to go. She saw no problem with it and the guy behind the counter accepted it. Erin followed Lydia to their seat, sitting down, and already started to enjoy the treat that she had gotten herself.

Really she would not have cared how Lydia ate, she might have silently judge but she pretty much silently judge everything. Not always in the bad way and since it involved a girl it would likely be on the good side of judgement. She even offered her drink and was happy that Lydia gave it a go. An indirect kiss! She could already feel the warmth returning to her face but she quickly sucked down on her drink in hopes it would cool her down fast enough that the blush would not show. That and well the whole indirect kissing thing happened as soon as she touched her own lips to her drink.

"If you like, but I really don't mind paying." Erin assured her, slurping down more of her drink to fight the new blush that threatened to take over her face. There was the next question that helped Erin feel better. Enough so that she calmed down a bit and started to talk about what games they could play, what they could do, and just talking about things Erin liked to talk about. They would do that for who knew how long but soon enough Erin would say her goodbye and the two would part their ways. Erin feeling like she had done at least a little better then she normally did when it came to hanging out with another girl.
