I bristle a little as Ace whispers in my ear, a shudder running down my spine. What did he mean by that. I wasn't sure. Once outside he asked me what I like. What did he mean? My favorite color? My hobbies? Food? My mind begins racing my anxiety is through the roof. I'm so nervous and I don't even know why. "What do I like?" I ask him pretending to think about it for a moment hoping he would give me more context.

"Yes what do you like? Color, food, literally anything. I don't care." I lean back in my chair and eat my food." You shouldn't have gotten that sandwich. It's horrible. But that's also my opinion." I look at his eyes and my heart races again what's this feeling? I've never felt like this

I pick at my food. No one ever asked me about myself before. I've considered my favorite color being green but when I look back at Ace and see his eyes I realize that is my favorite color. The color of his eyes. "I like the color blue" I say shrugging not giving much more then that before taking a bite of my sandwich. He was right. It was not good. The sandwich was very dry. I put it back down on the plate and take a drink of the hot cocoa I ordered. I figured I would wait a little longer before another cup of coffee for the day. "My most favorite thing is to sit out in the forest at night and look up at the stars." I tell him. "What about you?"

I smile once he says his favorite color is blue." Well my favorite color is." I look at him and say," My favorite color is green." I eat the rest of my sandwhich and drink some more coffee." My favorite thing to do is sit in a tree and read a book usually at night but I'm fine with daytime to. I also like looking up at birds flying." I look up in the sky and see some birds

I smile slightly. I'm not going to finish my sandwich but I don't want to throw it away either. I hate wasting food. I reach into my bag at my side and pull out a paper towel. I wrap the sandwich up and put in the bag. I'll take it to the dog that has chosen me as a companion. I found her three days after coming to earth and she wouldn't stop following me. My brother had a companion when he was on earth. A calico cat found him on his first day. Mom says that animals are drawn to us cause they can sense what we are or something like that. I look at Ace taking another sip of my hot chocolate unsure what to fo or say.

((Not gonna lie kind of a little mad with way my last post turned out. I had I good paragraph typed up and tried to post it and got kicked out of the game.))

I look around watching people go in and out of the cafe and sigh why did I of all people have to come down here and make it a horrible place."Umm so what do you wanna talk about?" I say breaking the awkward silence and taking off my vest and draping it over the side of the chair.

"Not sure" I say with a shrug. I know humans love talking about themselves and their family's so maybe I should ask him how his family is. Then again that might be a little weird since we just met. "Got any hobbies?" I ask Not really sure what else to talk about

"Nope my family died when I was 10 so I didn't know what to do." I smile and lean forward." You got any hobbies?" I ask and draw in a sharp breath looking at the cafe again

"I mean I draw sometimes but none of it's really good." I say with small laugh. "I do it mainly just to pass the time." I noticed him lean in and something in me jolted. Wanting to close the gap between us. I look up at the clock earth hours were weird. I'm still getting used to them but I know that I should be getting back to my companion animal. A pet as humans would call it. "I-i gotta g-go. I gotta get home to my pet" I stutter a little.
