Great place to get lost! (open/mod)

[KARP KARP!]

Mikey leaned back, almost hit by her flailing arms. "Don't worry about it," he said softly. "We just...uh...kissed, then you fainted." He found himself blushing again, but let a hand gently rub her back, comfortingly.

Leo blinked, then found himself laughing with Stitch in unison. Mikey, meanwhile, ignored them, gazing into Sanja's eyes.

She wanted to die. She wanted to sink into the floor and die. Her eyes were glassy, face still bright pink. Oh, she was still gonna worry about it. She JUST had her first kiss, and she fainted. Worse yet, Mikey had been forced to catch her, and now Stitch and Leo were laughing loud enough to wake the dead. She finally snapped a bit and squirmed as she yanked out Stitch's Pokeball, returning the Sneasel. And, though she couldn't do anything about Leo, she did give the Wartortle a withering glare. With a soft sigh, Sanja finally just leaned against Mikey, bot pouting a bit and actually feeling a bit tired. "My first kiss, and I fainted..." came out in the form of a soft mutter. She gently nuzzled into Mikey's neck and wrapped her arms around his neck for comfort, not caring about how awkward this might have been.

After a few moments, Sanja let go and wiggled some. "I think I can stand again; please put me down... Again, her voice was soft, but she sounded like she was gaining her confidence back slowly.

[KARP KARP!]

Mikey continued rubbing her back as he looked at her. "Don't worry about it," he repeated, smiling. "It was mine too." And he liked holding her.

What he didn't like was the laughter of the Pokemon. So, when Sanja returned Stitch, Mikey did the same for Leo. "It's fine. Besides, I kind of like this." He shuddered, loving how she snuggled into his neck.

But when she mentioned being let go, he stood to his feet, gently setting her down on her feet. However he kept his arm around her. "You okay now?"

Upon finding out it had been his first kiss too, Sanja had to keep herself from giggling and acting like a girl in general. Her embarrassment was quickly melting away back into the easy comfort she felt around him. Were things moving a bit too fast? Maybe. Was this possibly wrong? Yeah. Did she care? Not one damn bit! Once her feet were back on the ground, she whirled on him and hugged him tight, smiling her classic bright smile. "I'm glad I was your first..." she whispered into his chest, a blush still tinting her cheeks. Oh how she enjoyed every moment of this. Almost too quickly, Sanja was right back to being typical Sanja. Bouncy, bright, and bubbly with enough fire in her to keep a torch lit for days.

"I'm totally fine. A-okay~" she chimed as she walked away a bit, spinning a few times with her arms out. "So~! We did agree on a date, yeah~?" She smirked a bit, winking. "And I don't think this counts, since this is also the day we met. So~~ I know this great little cafe in Scorch City, if you're interested~~" Oh yes, Sanja was back in full force now.

[KARP KARP!]

"I'm glad I was yours too," he murmured, holding onto her, not really noticing his hands on her bare back anymore. It just felt so right. Though little did he know, this was going against his morals. But this was just so wonderful.

"I'm glad you're okay. And yeah, we did," Mikey smiled down at her, face blushing more. "That sounds good to me. I'm free whenever you want to." He kissed her forehead.

She felt like she were floating on a cloud. She was simply basking in this moment, these feelings. She'd worry about what there was to worry about later. For now, this was their moment. Hopefully the first of many, if I have my way~ When he accepted her invitation, she beamed a bright smile at him. "That's great~" she purred out. "Maybe in a couple of days from now?" She didn't want to let on her reason for the wait. But she needed to attend some of her court classes, whether she wanted to or not. Else she would be placed under lock down again and then she'd most likely never see Mikey again. That thought alone sent a jolt of panic through her, though she covering it well.

"Sounds good to me," he answered brightly. Then, he just looked at her, wondering what to do now. To avoid the awkward silence, he leaned in, gently letting his lips meet hers again. He didn't know what he was thinking, to be honest. But it felt so good, and he just had to experience this again. Besides, the first kiss didn't exactly end like he wanted, so maybe this time...

Que mind blowing up again. But, instead of hesitating or even fainting, this time Sanja kissed back. If she'd known kissing was this fun, she would have tried it a while ago! Okay, maybe not a while ago. She'd only recently been thinking of boys like that. Before, they were just friends, and it was cool like that. And then she began to feel weird around them. So THIS is why! Well, without a strong female presence in her life, she didn't know a damn thing about crushes and kissing and love...Wait, what? Love? Bah! That's not the term for this. At least, not yet, she figured. It takes more time than this, right? Love at first sight is for fairy tales! A blush re-warmed her cheeks again as she slowly broke the kiss, smiling cutely. "I'm gonna hafta get a few more of those before we're through~" she whispered, both teasing and so very serious.

[KARP KARP!]

Mikey all but melted into the kiss this time, unaware that his grip on her tightened only slightly. This was new territory for the artist, but he was loving every second of it. Sanja felt so warm, and this just felt so right.

When they broke, the blush never left him, and he was practically glowing.

"That makes two of us," he whispered in reply, one hand softly rubbing the bare part of her back. Suddenly, he realized he was touching bare flesh, and he blushed even deeper still as he moved his hand to what little bit of a shirt she was wearing.

The feeling of this...Him holding her, kissing her. Gah, she shouldn't be enjoying this so much! But she was, and there was no denying it. Of course, she only seemed to get brighter when he spoke, leaning her back into his touch some. So when he moved his hand further up, to where it wasn't touching the bare of her back, she blinked a few times in confusion. Eh? Is there something wrong with touching skin? Brushing the thought aside, she just figured that maybe he wasn't used to girls dressing like this. Yeah, that had to be it! She wiggled her hips some, smiling impishly. "So~ This is what happens when I play hooky and go to some creepy old ruins; I get a cute and artistic boyfriend~!" Oh how she loved to tease~. Sanja slipped out of Mikey's arms, giggling softly, grinning at him. She pranced a bit away, feeling playful. She wanted to have fun, have Mikey chase her!

[KARP KARP!]

Mikey blinked as she slipped out of his arms, but smiled, and checking out her figure--not that he could help it. He still blushed, but that was Mikey for you.

Usually, the word 'hooky' would have been a clue that he should probably ask the age of his date in question. And usually, he would have, but all he really heard was 'boyfriend.'

When she pranced away from him, naturally he walked after, unaware that she was playing with him.

Sanja kept just out of reach, smiling and laughing. "I bet you can't catch me~" She was turning the art of flirting into a fun game now, and she hoped that Mikey could keep up. She teased by keeping just out of reach, just out of range of being tapped or grabbed. Oh, if someone had told her flirting and teasing could be this fun, she would have done this sooner! She quickly ducked behind an already lopsided and leaning over bookcase, grinning like a she-imp.

[KARP KARP!]

Though he may have looked it, Mikey was not the athletic type. Nonetheless, he took off after Sanja, rather awkwardly, however. When she ducked behind the bookcase, he started over, then stepped on a loose piece of rubble, falling face first.

"Oof..." Standing to his feet, he brushed himself off, then looked around for her.

[Jay]

Farther off, what appeared as a Claydol finally came around the corner and was staring rather confusedly at the two humans. What were they doing running in a library!? "Hey now stop that this is a library you know!" she spoke psychically so that they would understand.

Sanja stopped long enough to make sure Mikey was okay, but not long enough to be caught. She hid behind a bit of rubble, and just as she was about to jump out at Mikey, the Claydol spoke into her mind. She squeaked rather loudly, staggering and falling over rather ungracefully. "Umph!! Hey, what's the big idea, sneaking up on a person like tha--" She stared up at the Claydol, actually figuring out that it was a Pokemon that was speaking into her mind. She shivered, trying to scoot away from it, rubbing her arm a bit. Thoughts of play were quickly squashed as Sanja picked herself up and ran back toward Mikey, eyes wide.

[KARP KARP!]

Mikey 'heard' the Claydol before he saw it, and blinked in confusion. When Sanja squeaked and ran back to him, the artist tossed Ashton's Pokeball out of instinct.

The Bayleef stood in front of her trainer, glaring at the Claydol. <What's the big idea?> she snapped at the Psychic type.

"Ashton, Sunny Day!"

"Bay! Leef, bay!" <Ha....screw that....> Ashton shook her head, then released a Magical Leaf at the Claydol.

Mikey, meanwhile, put a comforting arm around Sanja, holding her close.

[Jay]

Forming a Light Screen, the Claydol diminished the attack greatly, and despite the fact she still took damage, it wasn't near enough to faint her. "Now all of you OUT!" she said rather quickly before issuing out a psychic not only on the Bayleef but on the two humans as well. Her tolerance for those that played and fought in a library didn't seem to be the highest.... >>'

Sanja clung to Mikey a moment, shivering. She...She did NOT like something that could speak into her mind. Her...Her father's Alakazam could do that. The teen noble could thank that violent psychic for many night filled with nightmares. She gulped, glancing back at the Claydol. She seemed in a tizzy about them being in the library, but she didn't seem violent, right? But then the Psychic hit her, her eyes shooting wide open and a small, high-pitched yelp ringing out from her. Almost instantly after, Sly shot out of his Pokeball like a cream and brown blur. Water formed around him in a great wave as he crashed down on the Claydol with Surf. <Don't you DARE hurt my Sanja!!!> he screamed, bristled out to nearly twice his normal size. Sanja stared in awe of her Pokemon; she'd never known Sly could do that!

[KARP KARP!]

Mikey clung to Sanja as he was hit by the attack, and Ashton cringed.

The Bayleef glared at the Furret when he popped out and used Surf. <Hey, you jerk! I've got this!> she snarled at him, before releasing a Seed Bomb and launching it at the Claydol.

Then, her eyes fixed on Sly in a cold gaze.

[Jay]

Hit by two super effective attacks, the Claydol cringed yet shook her head defiantly. However, instead of issuing out more attacks, she somehow crossed her arms in front of herself. "What did I JUST say? NO fighting. If you'd quit struggling I'd take you up outside to have your stupid quarrels" she explained.
