#Woah, I don't know you.

[Noemi Costello]

Noemi bounced through the street. She didn't literally bounce of course but there was most definitely a bounce in her step as she walked. She was bored to put it lightly. There was no longer any school to attend so her days were empty, not to mention she wasn't sure if she liked New Zealand yet. It was new and nobody here was cool, she could tell because people were cool when they were her friends and since she had none here it made sense that no-one in the country was cool.

Noemi wanted a friend, of course she did, but her friends were people who could put up with her and they were rare. She went through a few moodswings, not the short nasty ones that women went through in pregnancy, no, hers changed over night and she stayed that way for a while before changing again. Noemi looked around the general area, she had been slowly walking up and down the street for no reason but now she was stood in the middle, there wasn't many people around but she could see some interesting people.

Just as she was about to choose who to talk to, Noemi noticed a very nice looking guy turn around the corner into the street. She watched his walk and his face as he walked towards her, probably oblivious she was there, until he was almost next to her. It was then Noemi pounced, not literally of course. She stood in front of him, grinning a cheshire cat smile. "Hi there, you don't know me yet but I think you look like someone who has the potential to know me. You interested or are you just stupid enough to miss this oppurtunity?" She was awesome, she knew she was awesome, and hopefully he would too. He was definitely cute enough to know her.

 

[Ryan Porter]

Ryan was just walking through Bleak Street. It was a quicker route to the Harbour from his house which was the main reason he had taken it. The other reason being it was not as crowded and it was more familiar to him than any other route that h may have taken to get to Obsidian. Ryan cracked his knuckles as he walked. Once he had reached the end of the street e turned onto the light and happy Harbour. He felt an instant dislike or this place, like he did every time he set foot in the place. It was little too happy for him but he would just have to endure to for today as it was a change in scenery and that was something that he needed.

As Ryan began to walk along the pavement of the new street he sighed to himself as he felt the atmosphere of the place around him. All happy and busy. It was hard to not be pulled in by it al but Ryan wasnt one for those sorts of emotions although en he could let loose and actually b happy. If today was going to be one of hose day then only time would tell. They were not something that he actually planned. Then again what was just about to happen probably wasnt planned either. A girl just walked in front of him and spoke to him. He frowned and looked her up and down. He had to admit her approached, he liked. She had a set on her hat was sure.She was pretty and there was no harm in talking to her. "I think i have more potential than that you know. I think i will take you up on your offer thought." He said folding his arms across his chest. "Connor." He said introducing himself with his middle name as usual.

 

[Noemi Costello]

Noemi laughed and flicked her hair across her shoulder. "Oh, you have more potential than I know do you? Well then, you definitely sound intriguing." She laughed and moved so she was standing next to him and leant against him. "Mimi." She never gave out her actualy name to people, it was embarrassing for one thing, plus it wasn't common and made her easier to find.

Noemi felt something was off with this Connor bloke. She didn't care if he was lying, that would be hypocritical of her, but she definitely wanted to figure him out. It would be a fun game for her, the harder the better in her opinion. She wasn't the best when it came to magical skills butshe was awesome when it came to figuring people out. "So, Connor, what'ya doing down here?" She could at least tell that he didn't like the happiness of this street. That much was obvious the minute he walked around the corner.

 

[Ryan Porter]

Ryan watched with a slight smile on his face as he watched the girl flick her hair. Suddenly coming here didnt seem like such a bad thing after all. "More than you would believe."He said, more to himself than anybody else. He looked over to his side when she leant against him, making sure not to show that he really didnt like a stranger touching him he began to speak again. "Mimi huh. That wouldnt be a name i would have guessed for you but sure, nice enough." He said as he gave her hi usual fake smile that he gave to everyone. Well nearly everyone, like everyone on the planet even he had his exceptions.

Ryan didnt think that the name 'Mimi' had given him was right. As he had once learned from someone, people usually looked like their name and well she didnt follow suit. Of course he wast one to judge because after all, it takes one to know one. "I thought a change in scenery would do me a bit of good. This isnt somewhere i usually go so this was the first place i came." He said telling her the truth, he saw no reason why to lie about something like that. "Whats your reasoning then?" He asked turning her question back on her again, something he did often

 

[Noemi Costello]

Noemi smiled, she knew most people hated being touched by strangers, the main reason she did it really. "You know something interesting?" She moved slowly around so she was in front of him again, Noemi couldn't stay still unless her life depended on it. Even then it was hard for her. "When you smile the side of your eyes wrinkle but if it isn't real, they don't." She smirked at him. Her father studied body language almost all of his life, she couldn't get away from it so she had embraced it and used it to her advantage. It really helped.

"Well Mimi is my name." Noemi had also learnt what made a good lier, she was very good at it, only being caught if she wanted to, or if she was talking to her father or the rest of the family. "You don't look much like a Connor so you can't comment on my name really can you?" She laughed and flicked her hair again, it had a habit of getting in the way. "Me? Oh I'm new and looking for people to be victims of my friendship." She laughed again, a sound like the tinkling of bells.

 

[Ryan Porter]

Ryan's eye brows knitted together as he listened her her talk. He had apparently found strong point of hers. "Good to know but no matter how good a liar someone is, they always have a tell. Just a matter of finding it. A shoulder shrug when saying one name is n indicator that he names is not their real one. A persons pitch of voice changes. They swallow. Their eyes dilate and they play with their hands." e said showing her that he wasnt dumb when it came to the subject. Ryan had been taught all about that kind of thing, ad many other things.

He noted t himself that she flicked her hair a lot. Maybe a course of habit or a conscious doing. He didnt care it wasnt any interest of his. "We shall see. And as far as friend go, im not easily won over. It takes a lot for me to see someone as a friend." Ryan stated s he thought about his friends. He didnt have many but the ones he did have he would place his life in their hands. Thats the depth of his trust with them. "You will have to show me that you have potential now." He said looking at her as she moved again

 

[Noemi Costello]

Noemi laughed as he listed off things she was already well aware of. "You're just preaching to the choir hun." She switched her balance from her left foot to her right and placed her hands on her hips, moving them down to smooth her clothes. She was wearing a long, off the shoulder, blue and white striped tee shirt and a pair of black leggings that reached her calf. The outfit was set off by her black heels.

Noemi shrugged and smiled. "I don't have to be your friend for you to be mine. Besides, I use the term friend loosely, I suppose I actually meant an acquaintance, someone to annoy who doesn't mind it all that much." She smiled and switched her balance back to the left foot. "Oh baby, I got more potential than you can handle." She smirked, obviously flirting in a jokey manner, it wasn't obvious if she was being serious or not.

 

[Ryan Porter]

Ryan pursed his lips and rolled his eyes at her. As if i need her opinion. He thought to himself. "Well thanks for the news flash but i dont really need a little girl giving me tips on something i already know." Ryan said looking at he blankly. If she liked to see when people lied, he wouldnt give her the emotions or the tells to give himself away. He would be the shell he always was. No emotions shown and nothing felt.

"For someone to have a true friend there must be feelings on both sides. Otherwise what is the point as alone sided friendship is only one one party,not worth it." He said tonelessly careful not to give anything away to her. "I only listen if i think what is being said is worth listening to. As for potential, tat will be something that you will have to show me." Ryan said purposely letting charm slip into he last part of the sentence.

 

[Noemi Costello]

Noemi laughed and couldn't resist her reply to Connor. "Oh believe me honey I'm not a little girl any more." She spoke with a lower tone and a smirk on her face. Flirting was fun, she had always flirted with people, even girls sometimes, it ammused her to see the different reactions she got from people. Her favourite was the shy boys who ended up stuttering and looking very nervous.

Noemi laughed and continued her flirting, this Connor bloke seemed to take life seriously. "Why don't you find out how much potential I have for yourself and make this conversation worth my while?" Noemi crossed her arms just under her chest and kept the lipgloss painted smirk on her face, one eyebrow raised to a perfect curve. "If you don't like what I'm saying just say and I'll walk away." She added onto the end. She wouldn't be offended, she rarely was offended, but she would make a darn good show about leaving.

 

[Ryan Porter]

Ryan smiled to himself at what the girl said. If you do say so yourself. Then again nothing wrong in test driving. He thought to himself. He didnt mind being flirted with by girls, he was just more used to doing the flirting. It meant less work for him. "Well i you say so but if your younger than me, our a little girl." He said raising an eye brow and folding his arms across his chest.

Ryan bit the corner of his bottom lip as he studied Mimi. She was certainly entertaining and h thought it would be fun to suss her out better. H kind of knew what made her tick already but what was the harm in more knowledge. "Oh well if thats how you want to lay then i guess will have to wont i. Did i say that i didt like what you were saying? No. The fact im relying to you properly shows that i am listening to you." Ryan said as he unfolded his arms again. He was mearly assessing his next move. "Want a drink?" He asked looking around for a pub, he wasnt familiar with the surroundings here so he didnt actually know of any goo places here

 

[Noemi Costello]

Noemi laughed and ran one finger down his chest, over his crossed arms before he uncrossed them. "Nope. I don't like to drink much I prefer to remember all of my..." She paused, biting her lip as she searched for the right word. "Experiances." She finished and turned away laughing. "However, I wouldn't mind going for a walk or even going home." She loved playingwith people, especially men. "Either my house or yours will do." She giggled and turned back to Connor. "Unless, of course, you're uncomfortable with it." Noemi ran her tongue over her teeth as she grinned at him. Hewas cute and she was more than shameless.

 

[Ryan Porter]

Ryan couldnt help but smile at her as she flirted with him. Maybe this would just be too easy for him. It wasnt like he would pass up on the offer when she was all too willing with him. He wondered if he played it cool for a while if she would be even more in to him, though he he had a suspicion that he would be more in her later hen she would be now. "My place is fine. But lucky you get choice. Ireland, Scotland or New Zealand?" He asked naming the different countries he had houses in. He didnt mind which they went to, he would still get the same result

 

[Noemi Costello]

Noemi laughed and stepped closer to him. "Ooh, seems I've caught myself a richman." She giggled in her flirty way and thought, biting her lip and fiddling with her hair as she did so. "Hmmm, tough one." Noemi smirked and stepped even closer toConnor. "Well New Zealand is closer. So we'll get there quicker, and quicker is better." She ran her hand through her hair and smiled at him. Of course his name still bugged him but she didn't mind if it meant she got somewhere to stay tonight. In a manner of speaking anyway. "Would you like to lead the way?"

 

[Ryan Porter]

Ryan put his arms around her and ran his hands down her back until he reached her bum. He stopped just short then looked at her. His expression turned to one that made his look like he was brooding.He wasnt thought he found that girls liked the expression on him. "Looks like you have." He said s he went to kiss her lips but just as h was about to make contact with er lips he apperated outside of his house. Once he felt his feet touch the floor again he glanced up at the building. Well either house would have taken the same amount of time really. Is it too your liking" He asked with a smile on his face

 

[Noemi Costello]

Noemi laughed as his hand, let's say, wondered. "Now now, don't get ahead of yourself." She bit her lip again and smirked when she saw his 'brooding' face. She recognised it, a lot of men thought they looked sexy when they did it. The surprise was that he actually did. The brunettes' smirk grew as he leant down, loking like he had the interntion of kissing her. Just as she closed her eyes she felt a familiar and not nice feeling.

Noemi cringed as her stomach insides twisted before, within a second, the experiance was over and she was standing outside a beautiful house. "Oh, it is definitely to my liking." Noemi laughed and ran a finger down his chest. "So, you going to give me a tour?" Noemi smiled and bit her lip. " We could always start with your room?"

 

[Ryan Porter]

Ryan smiled at her as she said that the house was to her liking. It was his personal favourite as well but he did like the one he had in Scotland, it was cosy. He took hold of her hand ad led her to the house and opened the door. "Yeah lets start with my bed room. Thats where the action happens." He smirked as he led her up the stairs and into his bed room. He kicked the door shut and leant down and kissed her lips, moving down to her neck. Placing his hands on her upper waist and pulling her close. He pulled away looked in to her eyes with his cold ones. "How do you like it already?" He said pushing her back against the wall and putting his hand on either side of her

 

[Noemi Costello]

Noemi laughed and followed him up the stairs. She was liking this Connor guy a whole lot more now, at first he seemed a little annoying and not nearly fun enough but that was certainly changing. She responded passionately to the kiss and smiled when he pushed her against the wall. "Well, it could be better. It's a little boring at the moment." She wispered in his ear before running her arms around his neck and pulling him closer.

Noemi felt his hand running along her leg and she smiled into the kiss and wrapped her legs around his waist, being held up by him and the wall. The brunette kicked off her heels onto the floor and leant into Connor, stopping the kiss but keeping her face close to his. "That's more my sort of pace." She kissed his jawline up to his ears. "Think you can keep up?"

 

[Ryan Porter]

Ran ran his hands up her legs. Holding her up as they kissed he felt her take off her shoes and he laughed slightly at her comment. "Oh please if anything this is just too slow." He joked as he gripped her tight and took her to the bed. Laying her down then holing himself above her and he removed her shirt then his own. " This is more my pace." He said sitting up then putting his hands under her back and puling her up to him and kissing her again.

censored

Ryan led on the the bed, one arm around Mimi and the other behind his head. He looked to his side at her and smile. "You ok Mimi?" He asked her quietly not wanting to spoil the moment with loud talk.

 

[Noemi Costello]

Noemi laughed as she wasplaced onto the bed and gladly helped him remove her long, one shoulder, top. "Well lead the way then cowboy." She breathed out to Connor, who was turning out to be her kind of guy, in a hurry ans he hands roamed his chest and back. Her rms wrapped around his neck when he pulled her up and she responded to the kiss with passion and a lot of it.

la la la la la

Noemi cuddled up to Connors' chest, still smiling like a cheshire cat. "I'm perfectly fine. Well, maybe not prefectly, I've had better." Even now she teased him, it's what she did. Noemi rolled over so she was on her front, looking down at him. She began to trace patterns on his bare skin with her finger.

 

[Ryan Porter]

Ryan chuckled as he ran her hair through his fingers. Her comment didnt really bother him too much. He wasnt one to take things like that seriously or personally. "I highly doubt that." He replied to her calmly. He was always in a better mood after that sort of activity than he was usually. Maybe it was due to the chemicals that the body released or what ever. "If i give you my real name will i get the pleasure of knowing yours?" He asked looking down at her. It was usually when he first met someone that he didnt give his name out but he could tell someone really easily and if he liked what he saw he would tell, if not then they would only know him by Connor. He liked Mimi and knew that she wouldnt be a danger with his name

 

[Noemi Costello]

Noemi gasped over dramatically and put her hand to her forehead. "Why ever would you assume I was lying about my name?" She held it for a second before laughing and returning to drawing little swirls on his chest. "I'll give you mine if you give me yours." She smiled and moved back so she was lying on him but so she could still draw on him with her finger. As long as she was moving somehow she was happy. "Oh, and for the record, I really have. But you're in the top fi... wait, no, top ten." She smirked and closed her eyes, not sleeping just, resting.

 

[Ryan Porter]

Ryan raised and eye brow at her reaction then laughed. "You say you can spot liars, well so can i." He said putting both arms around around her middle back area and sighing happily. He felt at ease right now and he followed her lead and shut his eyes. "Well Im Ryan nice to meet you. At least im in the top what ever number, but if we are doing it like that then iv had better as well." He said with a smile as he played her game although he was telling the truth he had had better before in fact many times. Ryan being someone decent gentleman would be skipping that part out of the conversation as he knew it wasnt the sort of thing you tell a girl you just got with.

 

[Noemi Costello]

Noemi smiled and leant into his embrace. "Nice to meet you Ryan I'm Naomi." She always did this. She gave out th nickname, then the fake name and finally the real name. If he spotted it then she would tell him. Besides, they were both technically true, Mimi was a nickname toher real name and her real name was a form of Naomi.

Noemi shrugged, she honestly didn't care. "Hey, I had fun, that's all I care about." She chuckled but it was true, she had never really taken the time to make sure the guy had a fun time, as long as she was happy it was all good. "But, hey, if you want to work on the problems I'm all for trying again." She laughed and lowered her drawing finger slightly down his chest.

 

[Ryan Porter]

Ryan laughed as she said her name. He still didnt believe her. "Open book love." He said to her. Ryan wasnt bothered that she wasnt giving her name, it wasnt like it was important to him. Instead Ryan moved his hands slowly up and down her back. Her skin was pale and smooth to his touch. It felt good against his.

Ryan opened his eyes and looked at her as she said that she didnt care about that. It was her last comment that grabbed his attention. He frowned. "Hey im good thank you very much. I gave you more than i took whats the problem?" He asked as his eye brow knitted together. He knew he was good and he knew his way around the female, he didnt care about improving h was good enough to get creams that was all that mattered t him. "Made you scream." He said in a pouty sort of way as he rested his head and down ad closed his yes again

 

[Noemi Costello]

Noemi laughed as he caught her out again. "Fine, it's Noemi. You call me that and you die though, it stays Mimi." She really didn't like her name, it was unusual and really annoying. Her parents had managed to name her siblings normally, it was just her. "Seriously, you even mention it and I will butcher a sensitive area of yours." Now that was something else she was good at.

Noemi looked up at Ryan with a frown. "No you didn't, that was your imagination hun." She wasn't exactly a loud person in those sorts of situations. "Then again, that may have been you." She smiled and kept her eyes closed, she was relaxed. A relaxed Noemi was a happy Noemi and a lot of people found that a happy Noemi was definitely a good thing.
