Walking through the Mall beside her, his longer legs keeping up with her clicking heels, Diego was still gloating in his mind a bit about having flustered Kat back in the suit store.  Tempted to find a way to bring it up, and likely push his luck too far, Diego was shaken from those thoughts in surprise when Kat, in her own way, found another opportunity to compliment him.  “Oh, well, thanks.”  He replied, reaching up to ruin a hand through his intentionally messy curls, glad he would not be getting a completely new look thrust upon him.  Looking down at the girl beside him, Diego noted the venom in her tone quite clearly, an inflection that told him in no uncertain terms that asking for some clarification here would be a very bad idea.<br/><br/>Plus, it was not TOO hard to come up with a reason she might be thinking negatively about certain looks at the moment.<br/><br/>“That’s even better because I don’t love tight spaces, and those machines freak me out.”  He replied about the tanning, although when Kat asked for his hand, he gave her a quizzical look, even as he extended it her way.   “Oh, um, ok.”  Holding his hand out to her, he wondered for a second if she was going to read his palm or something, and just the thought of it almost made him laugh.  Instead, Kat gave his hand a critical look before storming back off, and leaving him to scramble to catch up.<br/><br/>Mouth hanging open as he tried to find a way to fit in a question, Kat just kept coming at him so fast he had to just grab onto the phrase that stuck out the most and hold on.  “What circles?!”  Diego asked, bringing his hands up to touch his face.  Did he really have dark circles?  Sure, he was not getting a ton of sleep, but he didn’t think he looked that bad did he?   Thinking his way through that distracted him enough that he was in the salon and seated before he knew it.<br/><br/>Leaving the magazines where they sat, Diego’s head snapped to the side when Kat spoke up.  “Hurt?  What do you mean, hurt?””  He asked, looking a little wide eyed.  “Which part, the face treatment, or the nail part?”  He continued, having never been through either.  “And, do my nails really need something done to them?  Seems like a lot for a carpet event.” Diego mused aloud.  “And dark circles?!  I mean, really.”  Clearly the flustered complimentary Kat had been replaced with the one he was slightly more familiar with.
