"Yeah?" She leans against the doorframe, still waiting.

"Sure. I did promise to come to one of your baseball games, after all." She smiles and nods, missing the question's context.

She pauses, rolling back on the balls of her feet, though there's nothing unpleasant in her expression so much as realization. Was this why he had been so upset with her after her fight with Arman? It would explain a lot, she supposed.

She nods after a moment, smiling. "I'd like that."

His face split into a beaming smile.

"Anything you want to do? Or the normal go out and eat? I'd let you pick the place."

For ease of what she can eat.

His beaming is infectious, warming her own smile as she shakes her head.

"We can just see what happens. There's a smoothie shop and stuff downtown. We could meet there and see what happens." Would a movie be too cliche? Was she actually getting nervous, or was the heat of her cheeks imagined?

"You bet. I'll see you then." She holds out her hand to him, a few inches between their hands.

"But unless you want to play babysitter tonight, I think I better take Shelob."

He'd gently pick up the spider and hand it back to her.

"Maybe just the two of us on the date though?"

No spider.

"Agreed," she grins and takes the spider with a chuckle. "Just the two of us." Besides, Enya liked being babysitter.

She nods as she setss Shelob on her shoulder, but the spider is much happier hiding under the hood of her of shirt.

"Sure." Another, almost shy smile. She'd like that, too, but oh boy is she having a hard time trying to articulate.

He'd hold out a hand for hers. If she wanted. If she went gloveless he'd glow blue to protect himself as well.

She slowly takes his hand, though still gloved. She's not that comfortable with the idea yet, after all! But it's a good sign.

They head to the dorm!

And while quiet it was a pleasant walk for him! He'd squeeze her hand when they reached her pod.

"I'm excited."

She doesn't hear his words right away, his voice in the background to the fact that she was almost touching someone. Almost. More than she's willingly done in a friendly manner in a really, really long time. Her eyes keep going to their hands every so often, then back to the world around them and sometimes to Mike himself.

It feels nice.

"Yeah?" Oh no, wait. That made it sound like she wasn't, didn't it? Crap.

"N-not that I'm not, I just..." She motions with her free hand before dragging it down her face with a sigh that ends up a laugh.

"I'm a mess."

He chuckled.

"No. You're cute."

He'd squeeze her hand and exhale.

"I'll see you tomorrow then?"

He didn't want to go.

She gently returns the squeeze and nods.

"See you then."

Reluctantly he lets go and goes back to his pod.

She watches him go, heading into her own pod after he's out of sight. Time to put a spider in its aquarium, avoid weird questions, and try to settle her thoughts so she can actually sleep tonight.

Maybe.
