~<em>Splinter talking with Saki at a table</em>~<br/><br/>He could hear the other one giggle slightly and that only widened his smile. Blushing heavily at the compliment, which didn't exactly make him less nervous then he already was. He looked up at Saki only momentarily. Quickly biting down on his own lip as he saw the other one slide his tongue over his lips. Happy to have a reason to turn his head away from the other at the mention of John. Clearing his throat lightly hoping to at least speak a little clearer.<br/><br/>"Uh..." He was forced to clear his throat again, trying to calm himself down at the same time. "N... no... John and I... a... are j... just... it's... it's s... s... sorta c.... complic... complicated." Man this wasn't going well. He turned his face down towards the floor. To shy to dare to look up at Saki at the moment. Simply nodding at first as an answer to the other question. "Y... yes... cle... cleaning c... crew."<br/><br/>Splinter was happy that this place was kind of dimly lighted cause other wise Saki was sure to have seen the heavy blush his cheeks were now displaying. What was it about this guy that had him so on edge? He ran his fingers through his hair, rather unaware of it's seductive affect as it revealed his very nice profile and deep dark eyes, along with a dazzling silver earring.
