 Baby it's cold outside (Eve)

Eric was pretty much packed for his trip back home to see his folks and was just enjoying the last couple of days he had left in Chicago.  Which in this case meant he was lounging about in the campus since it was a nice day out.  Just chilling on a bench looking over at the campus his fingers twirling to the music that was playing in his MP3 player, headphones securely in place.

Evie was dancing around outside on the campus, her hair swirling around her in blurry orange. She loved the cold and was so excited for it to be so close to Christmas.

She was humming some carol she had learned when she was young, but didn't sing it out loud.

Laughing, she came to a stop and threw her hands into the air, glad she could just be silly after all of the stress she had taken on. And at least no one was around to witness it.

Well, except Eric that was. He'd grin to himself as he watched Evie dance through the campus, an unusual sight, but charming. He could dig seeing other people unwind and just let loose without being so self conscious and serious all the time. He'd pop his headphones out of his ears and with a small wiggle of his fingers he'd point over to her. The space above her ripping open as snow started to fall from the portal on top of her.

When the snow started to fall, the tiny girl jumped back, a moment of shock crossing her face. What happened? She knew it wasn't supposed to snow.

A quick glance around and her heart settled. Eric. It was only snowing over her, and for some reason, that made her smile. She gave a little half-spin, turning her face up to the snow.

Eve laughed excitedly and stuck her tongue out, oblivious to what portal - snow might do to her.

It appeared to be just snow but she could see the jagged rip in the space above her head and the sky with falling snow through the portal.

He'd just laugh at her display, pleased that someone was getting some enjoyment from his power.

"How's it going?"

For a short time, she stared up at the sky in the rip, comparing it for moment to the sky just on the other side of the rip. The color was different. It wasn't just the snow.

"I'm great!" She said, finally turning her attention back to Eric, her face lit up. "Can this follow me? Or do I need to stay here?" She pointed up to the snow falling on her.

"Where ya going?"

He'd have to open more portals.

"I was going to come sit with you."

She giggled, mostly to herself, and wondered if that much wasn't obvious.

He'd shift to make room.

"Well you totally should!"

She hesitated only a moment, holding a hand out to catch a few of the snowflakes, before she laughed and walked over.

Her eyes glittered as she sat next to him, leaning over to gently push her shoulder against his.

"What are you doing out here?" She teased with a smile.

He'd keep a hand extended in her direction, ripping open portal after portal to keep the snow falling with her, his brows furrowing in concentration as he followed her with the portals until it was just snowing over the two of them.

"Just chillin'." He'd say with a wink, leaning back against her. "You?"

"Relaxing," she said with a laugh, leaning against him gently and resting her head against his arm, holding out one hand for the snow.

It felt nice to let somebody touch her.

"I've been working for a few days, now. I haven't gotten any real time to myself, yet."

"Oh? Working besides Agent stuff?"

Damn, he didn't know anyone else that moonlit. That was kind of crazy!

"Mhmm." She shrugged slightly. "I work with Jack, now."

She looked up at him with a smile.

"Doing what?"

He tilted his head. Didn't they all work for Jack?

"Office work."

She really didn't know how to explain it better than that.

"You know... organization, cleaning, getting him stuff he needs, paperwork... Whatever I can do around the place to help."

"Oh. Like a Secretary?"

Huh, kind of weird that he took and Agent for that.

"So does that mean you are off the field?"

"I haven't actually talked to him about that," she said with a shrug.

The field sort of intimidated her, anyways... Though, that wasn't something she talked about very often.

"I seem to be a bit more useful here than out on the field, though."

"The whole psychic thing," she said with a shrug. "And I'm not that great with planning."

She chuckled, wrapping both of her arms around one of his and settling in to watch the snow falling around them.

"I feel kind of useless out on the field."

She couldn't help but laugh at that, tossing her head back slightly and catching a few flakes on her cheek.

"Really?" she asked, teasingly. "That's crazy."

"That is really impressive."

Her face was alight with amusement.

"But you seem to just have... that charisma, you know? You're smart enough to come up with a plan, and people WANT to listen to you."

Then again, there was Clyde... who hadn't stopped calling her "boss," even though it made her redder than her hair.

He grinned.

"So what I'm getting from this is you want to follow me and my Charisma?"
