“Y-Yes.” She stepped forward, flicking a loose strand of sapphire hair aside her vision. “You.”

The young girl remained in silence, repeating his name in the volume of a hushed whisper. Despite his friendly demeanor, she cautiously watched his movement to assure no suspicious motives were hidden beneath the surface. “Were you going somewhere?”

Perhaps her words flowed from her supple lips rather harshly, but it was necessary in order to uphold her bravado.

“Me?” The pinkette sheepishly asked as her pale cheeks gained a light flush of ruby red. “I’m A-… Arietta. It’s… nice to meet you, Rylan." 

"Me.” He replied with a small note of confusion. Yes him. What about him? Oh well. He’d probably never remember to ask.

“No I was just walking around,” he explained a little embarrassed. “I got lost somewhere and here I am.” Well that was the simplified version of it, but it was still truthful. He ran a hand through thick azure hair before letting his arm fall to his side once more.

“Arietta.” He repeated, eyes twinkling when he noticed her small act of bravery. How charming. Was every kid like this out here? “Arietta.” He repeated once more, a small Johtonian accent marking his words.

“Pleasure’s mine.” He repeated before chuckling, a nice calming sound. 

“Weird way to meet someone, am I right?”
