How could I possibly know this person standing in front of me? This was our first meeting as far as I could tell, and I already knew his name. My intuition told me not to believe his unwavering smile, but his pleasant disposition told me otherwise. One thing was for sure: there was no way I could be careful around this person. The only thing that broke our stare was Jaime. Thank god for her otherwise I wouldn't have been able to look away.
"Um..." said Jaime, "do you guys know each other or something?"
"No," both he and I said at the same time. I looked over warily and for a split second I thought I saw a hint of a smirk on his face, for what reason, I didn't know.
"Oh, okay. Well, what were you doing Damian?"
"I was just looking around at some of the books that they had. These supernatural romance genres always make me laugh, so I decided to give myself a little bit of a chuckle."
"Chuckle?" then Jaime started to "uncontrollably" laugh and continue with, "Wow, I haven't heard that one since I talked to my dad last year." You could tell that she was putting on an act for him, but I thought it was kind of cute how she did that. Apparently guys thought so too, because they all swooned over her, even then there were some that looked over. I'm not sure Damian completely bought it though, for some reason I kind of felt like he was above that. Then again, who was I to speak for others?
"Well then would you like to hang out with us? We were thinking about walking around and seeing what was new here."
"I don't really know, it doesn't really-" but he was cut off, Jaime was definitely not going to let this boy go.
"Oh come on, you know you want to," and then gave him the cutest smile she could conjure up. When he finally agreed to walk with us, we started walking around the mall. We made our way to various wings and stores, Jaime and Damian providing most of the conversation.
