<span style="font-weight: bold">Ryuko looks at their mother. Nodding his head to her. "Nice to meet you ma'am." he says. He had some restraints and knew some manners. He had always been in one of the very poor families but he, unlike Jarelis, had not always lived on the streets. He found the dude when he was a couple years old. Did his best to help the guy survive. His family killed in a random street murder left him out on the streets. He made sure Jarelis made it from day to day. He looked at their mother as she spoke. "Ryuko." He says softly. Barely audibly but still audibe to hear. He looks at Blades when he was grounded. Smiling at the humorous situation Blades presented by following his mother. The smile quickly faded away as fast as it appeared on his lips. He looks to Spike. Nodding his head. "Yeah." He follows Spike to the door and out of it. Wondering silently where they were going. He refrains from asking as of yet.</span><br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">Jarelis looked at Dagger. "Huh? But she isn't my age. I didn't mean anything by it. She just isn't a kid like me." He says. Looking sad that he insulted his mother by accident. Looking at Marcie. "Sorry lady. I didn't mean anything by it. I don't have any family. Never had any family. Don't know any better." He says truthfully. Looking at them and gets the questioning and quizzical look on his face. Looking at Dagger with confusion. "What is grounded?" he asks. Their mother in the doorway and having heard Jarelis's apology as well as what he said after the sorry part. He was waiting to learn what grounded is. "I have never heard of being grounded before. Is it possibly something to eat? Because I am starving again." he says simply.</span><br/><br/>Miho looks at her and shrugs. "I don't think it will catch on fire. I just don't wish to wait around to find out." he explained. Entering the park and smiles. "Like you are. You are lovely like the park. I like being in the park almost as much as I like being around you." he says warmly. Walking hand and hand with her over to the bench. Sitting down beside her. Still holding her hands. He looks at her. "Because you are a beautiful woman and they are envious." He says simply. Kissing her lightly on the cheek. "They don't believe us a normal couple...unfortunately." he says with a sigh. "I am a rockstar and thus they are having eyeballs popping out of their skull in shock to see me in a mundane place like the park." He says with just a bit of irritation in his voice. Looking at her. "Ignore them. Just pretend it is just you and me here in the park." He says softly. "I think I started having feelings when we first met. It was only the last year or two that I came to realize I didn't view you as a sister but as someone I was interested in romantically." He says. Flushing a bit. He nodded his head. "That is why I didn't say anything until tonight. I didn't want to chase off the most wonderful woman in the entire world." he explained. Lifting her chin and kisses her lips lovingly. Unaware that people had snapped pictures of them. Her best friend would be overjoyed that her friend was dating her idol. That was just the way her friend worked. He pulled away. "Never fear my love and devotion to you Laura."
