❊He smiled softly at the girl. She was just as flustered as he was. She said her name was Amelia..? How cute.. He grinned widely when she asked his name. Her rescuer, huh? He shook his head, the grin still on his face.
Isn't this the time when I'd normally be flattering the crap out of this girl..? Instead, he teased her a bit by bowing and saying, "Aren't knights in shining armor supposed to be.. mysterious, Amelia?" He said her name with a hint of the flirty tone he'd thought had gone into hiding. He liked the way her name sounded-- He shook his head. He had to gain some footing back and saying her name like that was pretty much as far as he was going to get. He tried not to dumb it down by over thinking it. His intense crystal blue eyes bore into her green ones and his tone softened. "It's nice to know you're okay. Do you usually trip like that or is this rare?" He liked teasing her, just to see what her reaction would be. Plus, she was even more cute when she blushed, if that was possible.
He stepped closer to her, unable to resist the urge to be near the girl for much longer. He sat in front of her, taking her smaller hand in his own, larger one, and gently rubbing the back of it with his thumb. He smiled at her again. "My name is Dominic. And honestly, the pleasure is all mine.." ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱ ..Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes, Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes↜

Amelia couldn't help but let his flirty grin get to her. Once he had said her name though; that was it. Amelia definitely couldn't not be friends with this boy. "Mysterious... yet somewhat superficial too, you know." She teased him a bit back, until his intense gaze made her blush even deeper. Dominic had such amazing blue eyes. "I... I just lost my footing, that's all. I'm normally pretty good on my feet, heh." Amelia stammered a little bit more, willing her confidence back, to no avail.
Dominic grabbed her hand and began stroking it, with another warm smile on his face; and Amelia giggled softly at his reply. Mia.... This is a ba-...no this is an amazing thing. "Well, for a knight in shining armour, you have a really nice name, and a really lovely accent... European, I assume, Dominic?" Amelia felt like she smacked herself in the face for that reply; she was jumping to conclusions and asking him too many questions, or so she felt.

❊He paused as he felt a rush of something travel up his spine. He could feel that his feelings for this girl.. whatever they were, were escalating. And fast. He chuckled, she really was adorable. Her giggle was contagious as he felt himself laughing along with her. He'd completely forgotten where they were, he had no other thoughts besides the girl in front of him, and he didn't even know her last name.
He usually wouldn't have such a heavy accent but nothing had changed in the short time they'd been talking. He still couldn't control himself. "Ah.. you'd be right, Amelia. Italy. Born and raised." He smiled at her curiosity, silently urging her to continue talking. He loved her voice, and he couldn't get enough of her. "And you? Where are you from?" He tilted his head slightly, his free hand twitching subtly with the urge to cup her cheek.
He figured that'd be just a little more creepy than he was already being, so he bit back the urge. Suddenly he thought about taking her all over Italy, maybe for a vacation. Where were these thoughts coming from? Had he ever behaved like this just by talking to a girl for a few seconds? He didn't think so. Maybe someone really had drugged him.. ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱ ..Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes, Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes↜

Amelia noted that something had sparked in Dominic; the way his eyes glistened a little, and the way he shivered when she laughed. Maybe having Dominic on her side was a good thing? She would be well taken care of, anyway. Her smile couldn't be wiped off of her face. "Italy? Oh wow... I've always wanted to go there. The history is amazing." Amelia explained, biting her lip shyly as she explained that. She didn't really want to reveal her 'talents' per say to anyone quite yet, although she knew she'd trust Dominic in the end.
She didn't notice Dominic twitching, at all, and leaned back a little bit, indicating that she wanted to stand up. Maybe she could convince Dominic to get coffee or something at the cafeteria, or somewhere a little more... private. He then asked her about where she was from, and she sighed a little, outwardly. "Sadly, I'm from a little community in New York state... So, American. There isn't really anywhere to explore." She giggled a little bit near the end.
Wondering what had happened to her normal over-perky attitude was the last thing on Amelia's mind. She really just wanted to be closer to Dominic, and find out more about him.

❊History? He thought for a second. Did she like history? Looking up at the category of books they were in, he noticed that she had been wandering the historical non-fiction section. He could do history. Of Italy, of course. Anything else and he wasn't really an expert.
He smiled when he heard that she wanted to visit. "You've never been to Italy before? Have you been out of America?" Noticing her gesture, he stood, holding his hand out for her to take. "And yes, it's.." He looked down at her, his voice taking on a different tone entirely. "..Fascinating"
He laughed when she giggled. He found himself wanting to know everything about her. What her favorite color was.. He paused in his train of thought, realizing that anything he asked her he'd probably have to answer in return. He didn't want to tell her that he was a sniper. That when he got older he'd probably end up killing people for money. What would she think of him? He'd never been so concerned with someone's reaction to his chosen profession but now that he'd thought about it, the thought of her hating him made him uneasy.
He decided he would try and keep the conversation away from that as long as possible. "Surely there isn't anything wrong with where you're from. New York seemed very nice when I visited." ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱ ..Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes, Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes↜

Amelia shook her head at both of his questions. She had massive plans to travel the globe with her previous school, until the opportunity to go to the Academy had arose. Her parents pressured her into coming here. "Never been out of America... I really want to though. I'd travel in a heartbeat." Amelia muttered the last sentence of that, not wanting to sound awkward. Hopefully, Dominic could understand her wanderlust.
She took his hand graciously, and used it to assist herself up, but she didn't let go of it. Yet another blush travelled it's way across her face when his tone changed once again. Can he see down my shirt, oh god I hope that's just him and not me- To Amelia, it looked like he paused in thought for a moment, as he stopped laughing for a moment, and then asked her another question. Amelia took no caring to that, as she accepted and answered his next question. "...No, there really isn't anything wrong really... It's just that, it's boring." She started, swaying her free hand a little as she spoke. "I mean, I've lived there all my life. It gets boring. Unlike a place like Italy, where there are always new places to explore and learn about... Wait, you've been to New York? Why?" She suddenly asked, curiously.

❊He smiled at the fact that she didn't let go of his hand and his smile only grew when he listened to her slight rambling. "Is that so..?" If she wanted to travel, his family had more than enough money to spare, and it wasn't like his parents would've taken him anywhere anyway. He kept his eyes on the girl next to him. Maybe they could go together.
He nodded when she mentioned it being boring. "Italy can get boring too. Which is why I travel to a different country every summer. This summer I was thinking about going to Japan but.." He shrugged. He really was planning going to Japan as soon as summer came around but he wasn't sure he wanted to go anymore. Being alone in a different country didn't have the same thrill to him anymore. "Exploring is always fun, though."
He stiffened when she asked why he'd been in New York. His body relaxed immediately though, as it'd been trained to do when caught in an uncomfortable situation. He exhaled and looked away from her, not sure that he'd be able to look her in the eyes while he told he the half truth. "I was there with my uncle on vacation one winter. Times Square is beautiful, isn't it?" ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱ ..Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes, Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes↜

Amelia nodded hesitantly. Hopefully this boy wasn't scared off easily. She rambled frequently, especially when she got excited about things; travel being higher on her list. She tried to cross the thoughts of travelling with him out of her mind, though for some reason, she couldn't. Imagining all the fun they could have made her blush a little more. "How could Italy get boring? ...I mean, I guess... if you lived there, right, Dominic?" Amelia wanted to smack herself for such a stupid sounding reply... At least this way, nobody would figure out her talents. "But a different country every summer? Wow... How many have you been to? And Japan? That's just so cool!"
Amelia could probably blabber on and on, but she shut herself up for a minute to let him finish. She really was intrigued by his past, and his future plans. Why did luck have it that she found someone else that had a case of wanderlust just as badly as she did? She nodded in reply to his comment about exploring.
Amelia took note of how he stiffened; his grasp on her hand tightened just the slightest. However, she didn't know why. Nor, did she want to push. He looked away, and she frowned the teeniest bit. "Ah, I see... Times Square is beautiful. I love being in downtown NYC for the holidays too... It's just so magical."
After replying, Amelia took a nervous step to the left, gesturing that she would like to go sit down on a nearby couch in a reading area in the library; and maybe she and Dominic could get closer.

❊He laughed loudly, earning a few looks from the people around them. He let her lead him wherever she wanted and grinned sheepishly at the staring people. He couldn't help himself. Her rambling was too adorable. "It's always beautiful, you just.. everything just sort of becomes routine." His body was still stiff from the lingering thoughts of her question. What if he told her..? He looked down at her smiling face. She probably didn't mind that he was witholding information.. if she could even tell. At this he relaxed slightly. "I've been to.. Hm.. Twelve, maybe? Not including Italy, of course." He laughed and winked at her.
He listened to her talk about New York and thought back on his time there. He couldn't exactly say it was magical but he did enjoy the time with his uncle. "New York does have some sort of charm."
He paused before asking her a question so he could hear her ramble on and on. "What do you usually do for vacations if you don't travel?" ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱ ..Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes, Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes↜

Amelia blushed a little at the sudden attention that was on them, due to Dominic's laughter. She didn't really mind though, as she sat them both down on a sofa. Her legs were quickly tucked underneath of her, and she leaned in towards her companion. "Yeah... I know how that gets. It's fine to be accustomed to something... but not so it's always... there, you know." She replied, knowing the exact feelings. As a young girl, she always grew into routines pretty easily, though they rarely changed. "Dominic... Wow. I'm so jealous! That many countries! You must really save up for such elaborate trips..." Amelia's face tinged a little shade darker of pink once he winked; and she playfully hit his leg.
She gave him a nod of reply towards his comment about New York, and then Amelia's face contorted a little. Her summers had never been all that interesting. She didn't want to bore him with her simplicity, nor her lack of money. "Ah... honestly... My breaks are pretty boring. I read a lot. Babysit, study, read... I have discovered I really like flowers, and fruit smoothies though." Amelia replied with a bit of a small, awkward laugh. She left him the opportunity to ask questions, or to let her attempt to continue meandering her way through.

❊He hummed in thought when she mentioned her summer habits. "Do you like to babysit? He paused before curiosity hit him again and he asked, "..What kind of flowers do you like?" He smiled a little to himself. Maybe he could find a flower shop in the town and buy her a few. He figured she might like that. He grinned when she hit his leg, liking the way their conversation seemed to just flow easily.
He draped his arm on the back of the sofa behind where she sat, his body angling itself towards her instinctively. "I don't usually save for them.. My uncle sends me to the countries. I don't ever get to pick, but beggars can't be choosy, right?"
Mentioning his uncle made him realize that he wanted to ask about her family. "Do you have any siblings?" ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱ ..Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes, Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes↜

Amelia shook her head at his first question. "I can tolerate it, I guess! I mean, it's not like it's horrible... Little kids are pretty cool though..." She rambled a little bit, before smiling at his next question. "I really like daisies, especially gerbera daisies. I don't mind lilies either." She stated simply, enjoying the grin on his face, also enjoying how easy it was to talk with him. She left her hand on his leg, seeing what he'd do with it.
Normally, when it came to people, she turned them off. Perkiness being the main reason for such... That, and her parents insistence of having a curfew, because new politicians weren't supposed to be out partying. For Amelia, that was one reason she was thankful she came to Gallagher; the freedom she'd get.
She felt the couch move from behind her, and she leaned her head back a bit, smiling more at him. "..So. Jealous! Dominic, that's amazing... All expenses paid... Your uncle must be really awesome." Amelia complimented, and nodding eagerly. As for the sibling question she opened her mouth, and closed it, and frowned just the slightest. "I had an older sister...Unfortunately, she... erm, passed away a few years ago... You? Any siblings?"

❊He grinned slyly, his gaze travelling down to the hand on his leg and back to her face. "Daises, huh? Nice." He only smiled more when she leaned her head towards his arm a bit. He was finding himself more and more comfortable in her presence.
He shrugged when she commented on his traveling being paid by his uncle. "He's pretty cool, I guess. Cooler than my parents, that's for sure." He chuckled lightly, the sound dying down when she asked about his siblings.
He frowned, and although he'd never been one to grieve for his own loss, he knew how much it hurt to lose a sibling."I'd say I'm sorry but I feel like that's the typical response when someone hears about something like that. Were you close?"
He wasn't purposely avoiding her question to him, he just.. didn't want to answer it then. He figured that learning more about her was more important anyway. ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱ ..Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes, Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes↜

Amelia wanted to be very forward with Dominic, moving closer, and whatnot. However, she decided against such; she knew that they both had mutual feelings, but she didn't want to push him. She blinked a few times, to try to clear her head, when he commented on her preference in flowers. "What about your parents? I mean... they can typically be a bit overbearing and such..." She said, hoping she wasn't prying too much.
Her expression changed dramatically quickly as his chuckle, and his usual demeanour halted. Had she said something wrong? But she closed her eyes and nodded in reply to his question. "Yes... My sister and I were pretty close. She wasn't too much older than me. And thank you. I get 'sorry' a lot... It doesn't really mean anything, unless you know how it feels, y'know..." She said softly, her eyes still shut, and her thumb absentmindedly stroking his leg as she dove into the past, just the slightest bit.

❊His frown only deepened when she inquired about his parents. There wasn't much to tell and that was exactly the problem. "Are your parents like that? Mine are never.. Well. They don't really care. But at least I have parents. That's more than a lot of people can say." He gave her a tight smile letting her know that he didn't mind her asking questions about his family.
He nodedd when she talked about her sister. "Yeah, I know. It gets pretty routine.. having someone say that every time you mention it." He noticed her eyes had closed. He didn't like seeing her like this. Without considering his actions, he cupped her cheek with the hand that was not draped behind her and gently ran his thumb across her cheek.
His voice was soft when he spoke."Hey.. you don't have to talk about it if you don't want to. I don't want you to be.. upset, okay?"
He felt her thumb stroking his leg, but he couldn't really say he minded the feeling so he let her do as she pleased. He willed her silently to be happy again and smile at him. ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱⋰⋰┋⋱⋱┈ ┉ ⋰⋰┋⋱⋱ ..Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes, Hit 'Em Right Between The Eyes↜
