Luke was a little bit embarrassed to admit that he came to the park the next day. Sure, he was asked out by cute girls all the time, and although this technically wasn't the same, just her asking for a friend, he still felt weird. It was nice, though, not having to try and be a mature man or whatever.

When Angel arrived at the park, she was surprised to see that Luke was already there. She honestly didn't expect him to show.
"Hey!" Angel shyly waved as she approached him. Oh gosh, she felt so nervous. She'd never really been the kind of person to text first, so asking someone to physically meet her somewhere was semi nerve wracking.

"Hey," he said, waving, trying his best not to act like he'd been waiting for her. "How're you doing?" He asked, leaning against a nearby tree and grinning at her.

"I'm doing pretty good. How about you?" she asked, sitting down next to him. She began drawing patterns in the grass with her feet as the cool wind blew across her skin.

"Well, I'm not dead yet," Luke said, shrugging. "So that's good, I suppose." He went quiet after he said that, having no clue what to say. How do you start a conversation?

Angel let out a soft giggle at his answer. "Yeah." Then she, too, was at a loss for words.
After about ten minutes of just sitting there, she said the first thing that came to her mind. "Would you rather fight a hundred chicken sized zombies, or ten zombie sized chickens? Just to be clear, you wouldn't have any weapons or armor."
She got this dialogue from a video game you say?
Like hell she'd tell Luke that!

Luke laughed at her question. It was a special thing to ask him, but he was okay with that. He couldn't think of anything better to ask. "Um… ten zombie sized chickens. Because then, after I beat them, I could eat them." He flashed her a grin. "What about you? Which would you rather fight?"

"The chickens. Not because it would be easy, because it wouldn't, but because they would be an abomination." Angel said, waving her hands around as she spoke. "Just think about their giant feet!" And with that, she busted out laughing. She didn't know why it was so funny, it just was.

(Yesh)

He laughed along with her, holding a hand on the tree to steady himself. "They would be," he agreed, sniggering. "Imagine how much damage they'd cause! The poor people who see them…" He shook his head with a grin.

"Aw, I almost feel sorry for them…" Angel's head lowered as she faked a sad face, only to jump up onto her feet a few seconds later with a crazed and goofy look on her face. "Except I'm the one leading the stampede! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!" She smiled as she looked at him, only inches away from his face, waiting for him to add onto her silly story.

Luke snickered. Then he realized how close she was and blinked. He wasn't going to take advantage of her, but… this position was weird. "You are?" He asked, looking stricken. "Then I might not survive! Spare me, O Great One!"

"Hmmmm…I dunno. What can you offer that would make me wanna spare you?" Angel asked as she put a hand on her chin.
For a shy girl, this is a pretty bold scheme. I mean, it's not like he'll actually fall for it.
She paused and gave him a chance to answer.

Luke knew that he had to tread on careful ground. She was younger than him, he shouldn't take advantage of this.
"I don't know," he said, grinning at her. "What do you want me to give you?"
That sounds perverted… he thought with an inner groan.

"How about a kiss? Right here." she answered pointing to her lips. "Unless, of course, you're scared." She smugly grinned at him. Holy shit, I can't believe I said that!

………………….
Luke blinked. "Uh…" he was speechless for a long moment, then shrugged. She didn't seem to be serious, so he didn't take it to heart.
"You know, I could," he said, smirking slightly. "But… that seems a very low price."

"Oh?" Angel could feel her heart speed up. "And what would you propose?" she asked, crossing her arms.

"I don't know," he said, leaning against the tree and acting serious. "You're the boss. Besides, what if after I paid, you broke your promises?"

"Well, I may be a villain, but one thing I'm not is a liar." She finally grabbed his shirt, pulled him down to her level and gently kissed him for a good few seconds before reluctantly pulling away. "So…there." Her face had flushed a bright red as she took a step back and looked down at the ground.

"I fail to see the-" Luke was cut off by the feeling of her lips on his.
He blinked when she pulled away, surprised. "I-uh…" For once, the Great Lucian Gray was speechless.

Angel looked back up only to see him what seemed to be staring off into space. She honestly didn't know what to say other than, "Guess you're safe now." with a nervous chuckle.
