Shade didn't mind, not at all. He was used to having his sister do that when she was upset, this wasn't really any different. Surprisingly he understood what she meant. "No thats not true, your heart is just fine maybe even two sizes two big." he told her sincerely. "You can make your heart do anything, you control it. If you want to hold on to things you have to make yourself do that and if you want to let go you have to make yourself do that too....". Shade continued to listen to her, just like a good friend would do. "It's okay to not make sense and it's okay to not know what you're saying. Theres always one person that will understand.".
"Don't worry, you have control. You can keep yourself okay you just have to try. I do trust you and I know you won't hurt me or my sister. Everything will be alright if you want it to be, just trust me." he said to her sitting up straight when she moved away. His golden gaze scanned around and he spotted a patch of beautiful flowers. He walked over to them tail wrapping around the stem of the prettiest one. Shade walked back to her and lay the flower in front of her, "For you." he said with a smile. "Try not to cry, try not to think about it. I think you need to rest...maybe it'll help if you took a nap." He grinned, "Naps always helped me."[/size]

Maia looked at the flower, took in what it looked like, then picked it up carefully and held it in her hands. The petals of the tulip were a vibrant red, reflecting exactly how her face looked. But.. the red ones... She glanced over at the patch of flowers, seeing only two others in the group of yellow and variegated tulips. Her eyes returned back to the flower. He probably doesn't know about the meaning... but...he looks so smart and... honestly he really looks handsome.. So why a red one? There were many other nice ones over there. Benny, I swear I'm going to hurt you when this is all over and I finally get to see you again. I knew I shouldn't have done anything.
"Uh... Thanks.. But don't you think its a little early to start judging feelings? I mean... We don't really know each other all that well..." she murmured, twirling the flower in circles slowly between her fingers. She had to admit, she loved the flower, thought it was beautiful, but the fact she knew most meanings of flowers always threw her off the deep end. With a sigh, she shook her head. "Maybe a nap is what I really need..."

Shade blinked, obviously confused. "Judge feelings? What do you mean?" he asked wondering what she meant. "Do you not like the flower? I can get you a different one, there are plenty of them over there." he said flicking his tail in their direction. He thought about it for a moment and studied the flower he had given her....a red tulip. Then it hit him and his eyes widened and face flushed beneath his ebony pelt. "Er.....I didn't mean it like that...." he said awkwardly and looked away in embarrassment. He was at a loss of words, didn't really know what to say.
He kept his gaze away from her, shuffling on his paws; the tip of his tail flicking nervously. Shade had always been a smooth talker, never stuttering words or anything. Plus he always had something to say. 'Why did I have to give her that flower?' he thought face even more crimson then before. 'I should learn to think before I act....or one day I'm going to get in a lot of trouble....'. Shade thought fast, "I'm...s..sorry I forgot what it meant....I just thought it looked nice that's all....I didn't mean for it to mean what it means....n...not that you're not lovable you're great but er......nevermind. I'm so confused....".[/size]

Maia glanced up at him, watching his reaction. When he didn't look back at her, a smile curved her mouth and she put the back of her right hand to her mouth to stifle a laugh. But, unfortunately, it didn't work, and she laughed aloud. "Its okay.. I like the flower, still," she said, the smile still plastered on her face. "And here I actually thought you were a suave gentleman with good looks and perfect charm and no bumps in your path whatsoever. I think I proved my theory wrong."
She looked down at the flower again and her clothes caught her attention again. Maybe I shouldn't wear this anymore. Its... weird and there could be more comfortable clothing somewhere in this big place... Maybe they have a mini mall or something, she thought, twirling the tulip absently in her fingers. Yeah... New clothing is definately on my list.

Shade shifted back to his human form again, scratching the back of his head. It was easy to see how red his face was now, it was kinda cute how he was so easily embarrassed. "Heh...thanks I think..." he said responding to her one sentence. "Yeah I'm defiantly not perfect...thats for sure." The truth was he really was a gentleman and defiantly had good looks, plus he was quite the charmer, but everyone can make mistakes. He'd never say that he was though, because he didn't really think so. "Well I try to be a gentleman and everything, but I wouldn't exactly say I have good looks or charm or anything..." he told her. Shade was so modest really, he never thought of himself highly...just average.
"I'm glad you like the flower though, I hoped you would" he said with a smile. Shade watched her twirl the flower and something came to his mind. "You're thinking about something...what is it?" he asked curiosity getting the better of him. "You just look like you have something on your mind....". [/size]

Maia looked over at him, a bit startled from her thoughts for some reason. A small smile curved her mouth and she looked back at the flower. "Exactly what most girls think of most of the time..." she said. Her ruby orbs returned to him, a slightly mischivous look in them. "Shopping, of course. I mean... I don't think I should go prancing around here and look like some robotic chick that just came out of the laboratories... And first, I'll start with this weird machine..." Even as she spoke, she laid the flower delicately on the ground and reached to her head, pulling off the mechanical contraption around her head. Tossing it to the side, she ran both hands through her hair. Much better...

Shade couldn't help but laugh, "Ah of course. I should have known." he said with a smirk. "Hmm isn't there a mall in this place? I'm sure you'd find clothes there that will suit your fancy, yes?" He stood up again and stretched. His gaze went to the metal thing she had thrown on the ground, he wasn't about to ask what it was. "Hmm I guess I could use new clothes myself, but shopping isn't really my thing..." he said with a shrug, "It's more my sister's thing." Shade nodded, "Yeah....but I'm sure you'd like the Mall y'know since you like shopping and everything."

Maia stood as well after picking the tulip back up, crossing her arms simply because it was an old habit she used to have. "Well, it was one of my favorite things before my parents died and well... Old habits die hard," she said, glancing about. Tilting her head slightly to the right, an idea popped into her head and she grabbed one of Shade's wrists. "Come on, then. I'm sure since we can think of anything, they'll at least let us think of money even though it isn't real." She tugged at his arm, almost seeming as if she was a normal teenage girl just wanting to shop with a friend of hers.

He laughed again, "Okay okay. I'll go." he said with a grin. "I just won't like it like you will." Shade nodded, "Yeah since everything else is fake here, the money must be too." He thought about this, "Wow so if we think up money, that means we're rich here. Thats kind of cool." He shrugged, "Ok so let's go, just lead the way or drag me or something."
