A Proper First Date (Devika)

[Devika Veni]

Devika smiled at Jared “Its lovely work tough you have a lot of skill Jared but you know the outside world is full of amazing things” she smiled at him it now made sence if what he said was true if he did live in his workshop most girls did feel they needed someone there at there side at all times, Witch reminded Devika of one friends she had years ago that was really into dating what ever she get her hands on she was also the dumpy a lot of the times because the boy would not go on a date with her and spend tons of money on every date witch as far as Devika looked at it, you give the guy space they need to breath everyone in a while that and the girl needs to do just as much as the guy when it comes to trying to see each other. Such just go over to their house and talk maybe play a game with them reaship involved two people not just one person

When he said why he went and talked to her above everyone else she smiled remembering some of the people who were there and they things they were talking about there was a reason she was away from the crowed and it wasn’t because she was scared to speak her mind. “Essense you really are an artist aren’t you” she smiled at him she was use to standing out a little in the states do to where she was form by now it still bugged her when people stared when she decided to where a sari but that not what caught Jared attention. She picked up her glass and made a small little sign like she was going to make a toast. “well I’m glad that we were able to meet and that are essences brought us to each other may they this be the start of a wonderful friendship”

[Jared Ellwood]

"To a wonderful friendship." Jared smiled as he listed his glass with hers and gently tapped it against her own.

He grew silent again, not exactly sure what else there was to say. They covered a lot about each other and while he still didn't know everything about her, his main curiousity had been saited. The rest would come as it may. At least that was if she truly wanted to see him ever again.

He took a few last bites of his meal before he placed his fork down upon his plate. He had almost finished off the whole plate, but was entertaining the idea of dessert.

It wasn't too much longer that the waiter returned with their desert. A simple slice of cheesecake placed between the two of them, with two forks upon the plate. The waiter disappeared before he could say anything but it only brought a smirk to his lips. "I eat here too often I suppose. The cheesecake is all yours if you would like it." He had no problems with sharing the dessert but he wasn't sure if she would mind. It was never a good idea to assume such things after all.

[Devika Veni]

Devika smiled at him and finished her meal in the moment of silence then placed her fork down she was pretty much full and was starting to think about getting up or if they where going to be hear a wile at lest finsh off her drink. when the waiter came with a peace of cheesecake between the two of them Devika smiled at the waighter then turned and looked at Jarred when he said it was all hers a she blinked looking at him for a second before she gave him a sweet small smile.

“No there no way I can finish this by my self you have to take part of it form me” she smiled at him “If you don’t want to share we can split it now I honestly don’t care I don’t even think I can eat half of this the food was so good hear ” She weighted for a bit for him to answer seeing if he take the some of the cake form her or insite that she ate it alone witch she was just worried about more awkward silence and she mostly did want to be sitting there eating with him just watching.

[Jared Ellwood]

Jared smirked to her and chuckled a bit. "Okay okay, you twisted my arm." That soft chuckle continued as he took the extra fork from the plate and took a bite from the cake. He closed his eyes as he savored that bite. They always had the creamiest and best cheesecake...at least he thought so. "Perfect as always. I swear if I ate here anymore I'd end up fat." Another laugh came from him as he waited for her to take a bite before he took another one.

The trade off of eating the dessert continued until there wasn't any left. He motioned to get the check from the waiter and when it came he just handed the man what looked like a credit card and off he went.

"So, what would you like to do next?" He asked out of curiousity as well as giving her a chance to say she wanted to go back to her hotel if she really wanted to. It seemed, to him, that they were having a good time but he wanted to see if she was enjoying herself as well. If she didn't know what to do, he could find something.

[Devika Veni]

“How I Twist your arm!” she said a bit paniced “I’m on the other side of the table I’m not touching you” she was really worried that she had some how hurt him and he was just laughing it off not understanding the mettofor at all mostly because she had never hurd that one before if she had tought before she spoke she more of likely gotten it after a moment
She relaxed a bit when he started eating she took a bit of the cheese cake “O my” she said holding her hand up to her mouth that was really good chesse cake if not the best she had one of the best “Didn’t know Chessecake chould taste that good” She happily shared with him the rest of the cake.
After they where done and he asked what she wanted to do next she looked at him she didn’t really want to go home quite yet she was enjoying her self but there was so little things to do when you are all dressed up she stood up and they walked out as she tought about for a second “You know I kind of want to do something a bit …different…that the wrong word….Something that” she smirked “more lose I guess…but…it up to you really where we go next don’t feel you need to keep me enterained all night” All she could think of was a walk in the park witch yes was fine but unless something happened there might not be a lot to say to eachother, Maybe it was best if she went home if he wanted her to. Devika was more of the type of girl that needed to do something so to many of these dinners and not having any relaxing fun would drive her crazy after two long if they stayed friends’

[Jared Ellwood]

What could they do? He really didn't have too many ideas. But it wasn't too long before something came to mind. He smiled to Devika and offered her a hand as he rose to his feet. "I have an idea." He helped her up to her feet and headed towards the entrance of the restaurant. They would return to his car and he whispered something to his driver before he settled back in the seat of the car.

The drive was long and a bit on the silent side. He really didn't know what to say to her. They had a nice chat over dinner and now he didn't have much to say.

Eventually the car slowed to a stop and he stepped out of the car. Walking around to the other door he opened it to help Devika to her feet from the car. It was completely dark where they were except for the woods that the cars headlights illuminated. "We'll be a few Jeffery." He mentioned to his driver before he led Devika out into the woods a bit more.

His hand slipped from hers after a few minutes and he moved over to where he knew a set of lights and a generator was. He flipped a switch and lights suddenly turned on in a flash. The lights illuminated the wooden structure ahead of them. It as the house he was currently working on. Though this one had more of a special spot in his heart, perhaps it would end up being a vacation home for himself. He hadn't quite decided. The framework was up as well as the stairs, just enough to get an idea of what the house would look like once the walls were put up.

[Devika Veni]

Devika sliped her hand in Jared as they drove the car ride wasn’t to bad almost relaxing she did want to know what he had in mind there was a word or to spoken but that was all. When the car stoped Devika looked around no knowing where she was it seemed like some sort of wood somewhere.
She let Jared help her out of the car he was such a gentlemen it was rare to find men who did these small things and she didn’t mind at all. He was glade that he seemed to know where they where going because she wasn’t seeing anything at all in the woods when he let go of her hand she expected for something to happen but the lights turning on and the house infrount of her was much more then she planed.
She looked at the house and him and walked up to it a little bit “Jared….are you working on this” she ask she wasn’t an arcitic in any means but she understood the work that came with something that most people take for granted someone had to make them and she did know that Jared like to work on wood but this a bit more then wood.

[Jared Ellwood]

"Yea...straight from the foundation." He moved towards the house and walked up the short steps for the porch of the house. "I haven't decided whether to keep it or donate it. It's kind of out of the way so it would be hard for a family to commute to on a constant basis. But I keep thinking of the little details I'd like to make to it. Like carvings on the banister and the mantle of the fireplace." He was bantering really, losing himself in the moment of his muse really. So many ideas he could put into this house and it was overwhelming really. Only if he could spend all the time in the world on it. But he certainly couldn't, he had other things to do.

He walked through the door frame of the double front doors and headed through the house. The foyer faced the stairs to the second floor but Jared moved to the right where a parlor area seemed to be which led to a dining room and towards the back a kitchen. Of course he knew that was what the rooms were but he wasn't sure if she would be able to notice it. The lights were through out the house, illuminating the area so he was able to work at night if he wished to. "This room is a parlor or livingroom," he pointed towards the other doorframe. "The dining room is just through there."

[Devika Veni]

Devika fallowed him threw the house as he walked threw the house she nodded when he said what room was what to her she couldn't tell one room from the next it all looked like just fram work to her but she could that Jared really loved what he was doing hear.

"well i'm sure what ever you do to it, it's going to be lovely i can tell you really love this" She slipped her hand back into Jared hand and smiled at him "So your hand crafted mantle over there" she said pointing to the only place that made snence for a fire place to be. This was a lot of work to be doing she looked up at jared "Hey Jared if you ever need any help let me know I'm thinking of spending the winter down hear in New York I may not be good with a hammer or anything like that but i can help a little..with something" She looked around not knowing how she'd help she'd never made a house before at all it wasn't like she know what to do most likely she just get in the way but then if he really loved this and this was his thing he might not want her there at all.

[Jared Ellwood]

Jared was a bit surprised when he found Devika's hand in his own again, mostly since it was of her own accord. But he gently held it in return and glanced to where she pointed. "Yea, it's going to take some work still. And I really need to get a roof and walls on this place before it snows a lot."

He smirked in her direction before she offered her help. She just asked for help? That seemed like an odd thing. Not that he didn't appreciate it. He just never really thought about getting help with his little projects. He was strong enough to do it all by himself...so he did. That smirk had turned to a bit of a smile to her. "If you really want to help, you can." Though on what he had no idea. If she wasn't good with a hammer, well then he supposed he'd have to find something for her to help with. He took a moment to try and think of what she could do to help him with the house and it all seemed to...laborus for him to allow a woman to do. He wasn't sexist by any means, just figured that a woman didn't deserve to dirty her hands too much. So all the piping he needed to dig for was out and she took hammering out of the equasion. There had to be something...

Then an idea came to him. "Could always use a woman's touch to decorating when it's done." That smirk returned for a moment, "I'm afraid it might look like a bachelor pad otherwise..."

[Devika Veni]

Devika smiled at him when he said he need some help with decorating when it was done “ That would be fun you promise to let me know when your to that point we don’t want it looking to much like a bachelor pad might drive some women crazy” Devika smirked at him she was somewhat hoping to do something a bit more for him but she guessed that Jared didn’t like she could do it witch was most likely true anyway so she wasn’t offended at all.

Devika stood in the quite of the house for a moment looking around she wondered what it would look like when it was done she had a small smile on her face trying to think of what it would look like. She squeezed Jared’s hand a little just to put her back into reality a bit knowing that it wasn’t near done and there was still a lot of work to be done before decorating happened.

“I think it’s going to be lovely when you are all done Jared and I will help any way I can” she smiled at him and blushed a little thankfully her dark skin hid most of it why was there something about this man that made her want to get to know him that she forgot about most everything else she been threw when she was with him and she wanted to spend time with him.

[Jared Ellwood]

Jared couldn't help but to smile to Devika as she offered to help so willingly. It almost made him wish that his sisters were so eager to help him. He had to find a way to see them again, if only they weren't so spread out.

"Thank you. I appreciate that, and I will let you know." That smile remained while he gave a slight squeeze to her hand. But before she could dwell upon that too much he was leading the way through the rest of the house. It was a fairly large house, with one bedroom downstairs and four upstairs. There were going to be two full bathrooms and seperated laundry room. Of course, there was no plumbing in place so it was a little hard to visualize but he did his best to describe it to Devi while they walked.

Eventually they found themselves back outside and onto the front porch. "It is getting quite late. I should probably get you back to your hotel room." Jared looked to her in the dim light of the work lights that surrounded the area. He'd offer to get her home, but somehow he felt like he didn't want to let this night end. He wasn't sure what it was, but it was something he wanted to look into.

[Devika Veni]

Devika walked threw the rest of the house holding to Jared the hole time she comment every once in awhile giggling and smiling as they went threw when it was over and they stood outside for a moment Devika looked up at the sky when he said it was getting late able to see some stars now.

“Yea i guess i need to go back sometime....Hara most likely is freaking out by now most likely going to try to get out if i stay to long out hear...that the flying snake thing you saw last time....” Devika paused for a second before she went on “and im sure your driver doesn’t want to be up all night weighting for us to come back” she sighed the night had to come to an end sometime but she was having fun looking at the house and talking with Jared. Devika somewhat loosend her grip on his hand she knew that he want to lead the way anyway back to the car that and it was so dark pass the lights anyone who didn’t know there way around would most likely get lost in the woods. She looked at Jared for a minute before turning back and looking at the forest mostly to hide her blush that was slowing forming on her face again.

[Jared Ellwood]

"Yes, I remember that little friend of yours." Jared smirked to Devika and then led the way towards the car. He took it slowly, one fluid step at a time. Honestly he didn't want to rush the night to be over but it did have to end sometime. He moved to turn off the generator, creating pitch blackness all around them.

"Do you trust me?" He asked softly to her before he squeezed her hand. Jared really didn't give her time to respond before he was walking towards the drive where the car would be. It was so dark you couldn't even see your hand infront of your face but he seemed to see perfectly. It wasn't his power that had him maneuvering so well, it was merely habit. He had walked down these paths so many times it was easy to walk down them as if he was blindfolded.

It wouldn't be too much longer before they were finally able to see the headlights of the towncar. He smirked to her as everything came back into view. "See...nothing to it." He chuckled a bit before he headed to the car and opened the door for her.

[Devika Veni]

Devika blushed a little when he said that he remembered Hara she had a small smile on as Jared lead his way to the box to turn off the lights she giggled a bit when he asked if he trusted her "Of corse i do"

When the lights went dark Devika squeezed his hand a bit drawing a bit closer to him yes see trusted him but she didn't trust her own two feet he had brought her hear and she tursted that they go back to the car fine on there own.

the walk was nice but she found a little when she saw the car be it desipeared before Jared would notice with a small sweet smile "I knew there was nothing to worry about" she smiled She slipped into the car when he opened the door for her putting her seat belt on as soon as Jared got in the car she reached for his hand and smiled "Jared i had a really nice night tonight thank you" she smiled at him with a nice warm smile looking at him with her chocolate brown eyes, she was thankful for this night, but part of her was thinking that he whouldn't want to do it again
