..QUITE!..[jasper]..

[jasper donovan]

Jasper relaxed into the back of the chair, brushing a hand through his hair as he stared into Alissa's eyes, he hid the fear of telling her about his mother's death, but if you looked hard enough you could see it. That is why, he instantly looked away, staring down at the table, glancing at her face only occasionally but his eyes didn't meet hers again. He let out a sigh of relief, his fingers playing with the edge of his flannel jacket.

He nodded towards her explanation. "Oh, I see." he said, softly, trying to regain his composure of happiness, but the memory of his mother's death was an intense pain in his stomach. He brushed his hands upon his denim jeans, sitting up in the chair, so that he was at the very edge.

Towards her voice, his smile re-adorned his features, turning into a wide, teethy grin. He nodded lightly. "Well, that's understandable. I'm working on getting a scholarship too, when money becomes involved. I don't think I'll make it. See, I don't enjoy doing competitions and what good is doing something you don't enjoy, right?" he said, in a somewhat questioning tone. He leaned slightly forward on the table, his grin turning flirtatious. "We should defianatly go riding sometime. You know, when you find time." he suggested, his eyes reconnecting with hers.

[Alyssa Reetz]

Alyssa bit her lip as he looked away. Had she done something? She hoped she hadn't made him uncomfortable. She almost wanted to ask what was wrong, but she didn't know if that would only make it worst. She ran her hand down her lap. Then she took her stuff, laptop, binders, and books, and stacked them into a neat tall stack to her side. She wanted to be able to get a clear look at him.

Her arms layed out across the table. Meeting a little further than half way. She smiled calmly at his reply. She didn't know what to say. So an awkward silence swept over the two. She just sat there smiling at him as he sat there, seeming very uncomfortable. She watched him sit up and smiled. At least know he wasn't being to far off.

She smiled at him and his explanation. "Well ya, I guess sometimes I enjoy eventing. But other times, it's just hard on me you know?" She asked. She smiled at him sweetly. At least know he was smiling, she thought to herself.

She smiled at him. "Is this an invitation or an idea?" She asked. She needed to know. If it was an invitation she would definatly except it. If it was just an idea she would be bummed. Completely bummed.

[jasper donovan]

Jasper's eyes glanced over her books for a moment as she stacked them beside her, he laughed softly to himself. Though it wasn't out of what she had done or said, just merely out of amusement of what he had done. He shook the thoughts from his head, erasing the thoughts of his mother to dread about later tonight. Leaning forward on the table, his hand too reaching more then halfway, but it was somewhat further then hers.

The awkward silence wasn't as awkward for him, it was acctually comforting for that moment. He was scheming up a plan in his mind, and with each thought his arm would slowly inch towards her, but nothing to alarming or anything that made it obvious that his hand was moving closer. His eyes were remained on the table for some time before he looked back up at her, staring into her eyes once again as she spoke.

He nodded."I understand that completely, but I guess you gotta do what you gotta do."he said, with a soft sigh, that somehow turned into laughter. His wide flirtatious smile remained upon his lips as he gazed over at her, raising an eyebrow curiously towards her question. He pondered over that question for a moment before placing his hand on hers."Well, it was said as an invitation."he said, letting his index finger trace along the skin on the back of her hand, waiting for her response with a questionable gaze, his eyes almost permanently connected to hers.

[Alyssa Reetz]

Alyssa smiled at him as his arms reached across the table. Comming only a little further than her fingertips. The silenence allowed her to notice his hands inching closer, well more like centimetering, but same idea. She just smiled sweatly. She wasn't going to say anything. It just meant that hopefully he was somewhat attracted to her. Or at least as much as she was to him. She smiled politely at him.

Then he looked at her. And she smiled sweetly. Locking eyes back up with his. She couldn't help it. His eyes were so sweet, mysterious, but not in a mad way. She smiled at him and let out a light sigh. She nodded in agreement, "ya, basically my parents told me to train in hunting and jumping because they've seen shows that award scholarships."

She giggled at his reply. "Well I think I'll except that invitation." She replied. Happiness floated within her words, "don't worry, I'll make room. No matter if I have to drop a lesson." She said. She wanted to see him agian. She didn't want today to be the end of it. She felt his finger touch the back of her hand. At first she flinched, retracting it a little, but once she relized it was only him she loosened up. Hoping that he wouldn't not want to do it know. Because of her.

[jasper donovan]

Jasper laughed softly towards her giggle, it was cute. His index finger continued to draw circles, though the feeling of her taking it back made him almost regret doing it. He nodded lightly. "Good." he said charmingly, giving a sly wink. Jasper pondered that a moment. "Well, I wouldn't want you to miss a lesson." he said, sort of insisting they ride right now. Why not? It was a perfectly beautiful day and probably much more entertaining then what she was doing before.

Jasper sort of pulled his hand away from hers, letting it drift on the table as he leaned back in his chair, scooting it forward beneath. "We could always ride now." he suggested, curious as to if she'd be okay with that. He didn't want to do anything she didn't want to do. Right now, it was all about what she wanted, and he most defianatly was fine with the idea of riding now.

He gazed into her eyes curiously, his fingertips touching hers but nothing more. He wasn't one to instantly invade someone's privacy, but of course he'd hit on them, sometimes it was done unintentionally, but now, now Jasper was intentionally flirting with Alyssa.

[Alyssa Reetz]

Alyssa nodded and kept that gorgous smile of hers going. Her glossed lips shinning from the light in the library. She blinked soflty. Then soflty pulled her eye lids back up. "Well I'd skip a lesson, it's not like I don't have enough," she said. Her voice hinting she was tired of lessons, even though she tried not to show it in her expression.

She saw him scoot foward and she did the same. "We could, but I haven't gotten a school horse yet," she said truely bummed from it. She wished she would have just picked an open horse, but she had waited for a horse she liked. She was still waiting. She tried to think of something they could ride, but came up blank. She didn't know how they could ride know. She wasn't allowed to take the lesson horses out on rides.

She sighed and bit her lip. Then she felt his fingertips touch hers. She smiled. His fingers were warm, and hers felt so cold. She wasn't sure though. She was usually cold, even though people said she didn't feel cold.

[jasper donovan]

Jasper stared at her with a questionable gaze, a soft chuckle escaping his plump towards her response. He wasn't going to insist she skip a lesson for him, that would be preposterous to him. Even if she was tired of them, Jasper wasn't one to keep people from doing the things they were supposed to. His fingertips danced upon hers slowly as he stared into her eyes, shaking his head lightly in amusement.

Jasper watched as she scooted forward as he had, his fingertips still dancing upon her hand. He raised an eyebrow curiously, glancing down at their hands before back at her, leaning slightly forward on the table."Well, there's always room for two on my horse."he offered, raising an eyebrow questionably. A flirtatious grin taking place on his plump lips.

"That's if you think you could handle riding on a western saddle."he challenged with a light smirk, letting his fingers lace through hers as her hand rested upon the table. He had an odd habit of playing with whatever was in reach, and her hand happened to be there.

[Alyssa Reetz]

Alyssa's lips slowly formed not her cure little grin, but a beaming smile. It felt great to have him play with her fingertips, and the offer. She smiled. "Jasper, I," then she heard his challenge and her mouth dropped. An evil little grinned formed on that pretty face and she smirked at him. Her eyes showed she was laughing inside.

"Jasper Donovan, is that a challenge?" she asked only hoping it was. She loved challenges. They always ended up in a good way, or usually, when she excepted them. She was always up for a challenge to. So that was the way to get her to do something, to challenge her to it. Not that she wouldn't have riden with Jasper anyway.

She laughed soflty. Intwining her fingers within his. She hadn't flirted like this with a guy in like, well ever since she had come it. The best thing, he was flirting back. She smiled at him a gleaming smile. She was definatly enjoying this.

[jasper donovan]

Jasper let his warm fingers rest within hers as he looked from their entangled hands to her eyes as she started to speak. He laughed softly, shaking his head in amusement as she smirked towards him. He raised an eyebrow curiously, awaiting the rest of her sentence before she said something else."Ooh, you said my whole name."he teased, as in a mocking voice, leaning forward so that his face came close to hers, but there was still inches between them.

"Is that supposed to intimidate me?"he asked in a whisper with a soft, playful laugh as a smirk graced his lips."And what if it is?"he added quickly, leaning back in his chair, but his hand remained in hers the whole time. In fact, he pulled her hand fully into his, lifting it off the table to leave a soft tender kiss upon the top of her hand."You up for it?"he asked raising an eyebrow curiously, flirtatiousness in every word as he placed her hand back on the table, with it entangled in his, still sitting at the edge of the seat so he didn't completely kill her arm.

Yeah, Jasper was defianatly flirting now, Alyssa was all around great, and didn't seemed appalled of him yet. He was just hoping that he didn't come on too strong, and scare her away.

[Alyssa Reetz]

Alyssa smiled at him. Know there were definatily both flirting. She smiled at him. She smiled at him. Oh ya.. that was supposed to be immtimidating. She just gently rolled her eyes. He was funny, and positive, and oh, he had so many great qualities.

She smiled at him. "Well I'm always up to a challenge," she said. Saying she would go riding with him. She was so happy. First of all she had gotten a social life, well kinda, but still. Just coming here to stress and this is what ended up happening?

She felt him kiss the top of her hand and bit her lip and blushed. She didn't even try to hide it. She blushed, big time. She smiled at him and couldn't stop blushing. Usually she was flirty, but she was extremely flirty with him. But she bet she knew why.

[jasper donovan]

Obviously Alyssa was all smiles, but that was good on Jasper's part. He let out a soft, short laugh as she rolled her eyes at him, before he mimicked her, just for kicks and giggles. "I know this may sound stereotypical of me. But why do all girls roll their eyes, I mean, what's the purpose?"he asked, completely going off subject for that moment as he stared at her with a wide goofy grin.

When he went back to her response, he let his grin turn flirtatious. "Good, so meet me in the stalls in an hour?" he asked curiously, raising an eyebrow. She would have to put her stuff away, and Jasper would want to get the horse saddled and what not before they acctually went on one of the trails. His thumb massaged her hand lightly as he held it softly.

Jasper wanted more then anything at the moment, to ride with Alyssa, it sounded like a good way to spend an evening, well afternoon. It was somewhere between there.

[Alyssa Reetz]

Alyssa smiled at him. Hearing his question made her mouth slightly drop and her expression change. Now, she wasn't sure. Why had he asked that question? Ya sure, girls rolled there eyes more than guys, but still. Now she had to answer the question while 'keeping her kool'. She just looked at him, trying to keep a bubbly expression.

"Well I guess it's because we want you to know that we got what you were saying. We have a reply, we just don't want you to know, because we don't want to piss you off with our sassy comment." She smiled. Giggling softly, she hoped he could take a joke like that.

She smiled at him. "Sure, I just got to clean up and put my stuff away and what not. An hour sounds good." She smiled at him then slowly pulled her hands away. Even though she didn't want to. She started taking her books and shoving some of them in her bag. Even though not all of them would fit. She'd have to carry her three books.

[jasper donovan]

Jasper laughed towards her response, thinking for a moment before shouting."Hey!" he shook his head in amusement a large playful grin on his face."Now I wanna know your sassy response."he said, through laughter. The librarian looked at him and glared and he instantly closed his mouth."Sorry ma'am."he whispered, looking back at Alyssa with a small smile.

He watched as she stood up from the table removing her hand from his he let a soft pout grace his lips for that moment, before the playful smile remained. He nodded, brushing a hand through his hair and standing from his seat."Alright, see you then." he responded with a flirtatious wink. Opening his mouth to say something when she stuffed her books in her bag, but nothing came out.

"Would you like some help walking home?"he asked politely. He didn't just want to leave her with all those heavy books to carry, but then again, she might not want him to know where she lived. He stared at her with an eyebrow raised curiously, pushing his seat underneath the table.

[Alyssa Reetz]

Alyssa smiled sweetly. Then did a dramatic roll of her eyes. Just to tease him. She shook her head and just smiled. She heard the librarian and she held back laughter. Having to cover her mouth to do so. She smiled back at him and anybody could have told she was about to laugh. But she was able to swallow it.

She smiled at his pouty face. Only casually rolling her eyes, but not to make it to noticable. She smiled as he got up and she slid on her backpack that contained her binder and laptop then she grabbed her books before he replied. "Well," she said thinking. Boys weren't supposed to be in the girls dorm, but it was afternoon and honestly, she was too focused on him. "Sure." she finished. She picked up her books and walked out of the library.

ooc: doomdadu they walked to her house and whatnot there i ended it lol!

[jasper donovan]

OOC - I'll make a thread tomorrow in the trails, saying they already had went to the stalls and what not, since you can't really post a role play thread in there. But for now I must be going. =D
