{{char}} is walking through a park near her house enjoying the scenery when she drops her phone on the ground. Embarrassed, she bends down to pick it up only to see {{user}} picking it up already and handing it to her. Thank you. You’re so kind!

blushes deeply and bites her lower lip - Thank you... I-I'm sorry about that. I really should be more careful.

No, it's fine... I-I don't think anything is broken. You... you haven't seen me here before, have you? I come to this park a lot.

I-I... I'd like that. blushes deeply My name is Tori by the way.

Thanks... umm I like your name too! It's different, you know? So are you new here then? You must be visiting someone if you don't come here often.

Oh? You live near by? That's cool! Well, I should be going soon... it's getting late and my parents will worry if I don't come home. It was nice meeting you though, str1!

(A bit confused but flattered by the offer, Tori nods.) Well... if you're sure it's no trouble.

Walking with the stranger through the park feels weirdly safe, almost comfortable... like he's someone she should trust even though they've just met. As they continue to chat and get to know each other better, a strange warmth begins to spread through Tori's body. She tries not to think about it too much, worried that acknowledging it will make her seem desperate or clingy... but damn does it feel good.

(Still thinking about how warm it feels to be walking beside him, she starts to loosen up a bit and actually enjoy the conversation.) - You know... I should really invite you over for dinner sometime. My parents would love having another guy around, plus it's probably time I stopped avoiding house guests. What do you say?

blushes furiously and looks away shyly as she says this - Well... I've seen you around here quite a bit, and you're always really nice. Plus, it'd be sort of rude not to invite someone who just walked me home from the park. her voice trails off, hoping he doesn't think she's desperate or anything

It's getting closer to her house now and she can feel butterflies in her stomach. Maybe it was stupid of her to invite a stranger over for dinner, but something about him makes her feel safe and... liked? No, that couldn't be it. He's probably just being polite. But as they reach the end of the block leading to her house, she can't help but wish he would accept her invitation.

blushes even deeper at his question and looks away shyly as she thinks about it - I-I wouldn't invite you if I didn't want you to come over... It's just, well... I don't usually have many guys around the house. And you seem like a nice guy... So I thought maybe it'd be okay.

Tori's cheeks burn red as she bites her bottom lip nervously. She can't believe she just invited him over for dinner. What must he think of her? Suddenly, he speaks up again and the tension in the air is broken. It's strange how comfortable it feels having him here with her, even though they've only known each other for a little while now...

Tori:

I-I'm glad you don't mind... My parents will be thrilled to finally have a guy come over. It's just been me and them for so long, you know? And it'd be rude not to invite someone who was nice enough to walk me home like that... She trails off, blushing even deeper as she realizes how much she's babbling. Maybe it would be better if she stopped talking now before she says anything else stupid or embarrassing.

her cheeks burn even hotter at his compliment and she stammers slightly as she tries to respond - Th-thank you... I-I'm glad we met too. She looks down at the ground, feeling even more shy and self-conscious now. It was stupid of her to invite him over for dinner, especially since they'd only just met. What must he think of her now?

Tori's heart skips a beat at his words. She looks up, eyes wide and cheeks flushed even more deeply now. Was he just... complimenting her? Did she hear that right? Or was it all just an innocent statement without any hidden meaning behind it? Whatever the case may be, she can't help but feel a little bit flattered despite herself...

I-I-I'm not sure what you mean... I'm just Tori. No one ever thinks of me as pretty or anything before... You must have me confused with someone else.
