day in the park

I set myself up with a meeting scenario. I should meet starfire in the local park thats near my house. They wont say what or how she and I will meet though. What they DID say is that it should take about a week to prepare. I busied myself by shoping for a few things, mostly stuff for Starfire.

The big day finaly came. I was leaning against a tree reading a book. "Hello!" A freindly voice called to me. "May I ask what it is your reading sir?" I dont look up and just reply. "Sci-fi. Is there something I can do for you?" I look up and see Starfire smileing at me. "I wish to be your freind! May I?" She asks sweetly.

"I dint see why not." I pat the ground next to me. "What's your name cutie?" She sits down and with a slight perplexed look replys. " No, my name is not cutie. It is Starfire." I chuckle at her. "Starfire...thats a pretty name. My names John, and when I called you cutie I ment that you where cute."

Her cheeks turn pink and she shifts slightly. "F-freind John, do you...really think that I am cute?" I place my hand on hers and smile. "Yup. Your just about the prettiest thing I've ever seen." I grin sheepishly knowing that this is a cheezey line.

"I-I dont know why but I find you pleasent to be around aswell John." She whispers as the blush in her face darkens. "Um..thanks. So what is a big time superhero doing in the park?" I ask trying to change the subject. "Huu...the truth is...I am not very good at being a solo hero.." She slumps slightly. "A-and I have been...living on the street as of late." My eyes open wider in suprise. I take a peak at her and see her outfit is a bit dirty and torn.

"Well we cant have that. I know we just met but you are more then welcome to come home with me!" I say with a gentle tone as I pat her hand. "Y-you would take me in?!" She perks up. "You dont mind staying with me?" She hugs me close to her and giggles. "It is strange freind John, but I find the Idea of living with you MOST pleaseing to me!"
