There were a lot of things that Silas Artesto was expecting to feel about tonight. Excitement? Yeah, he was always down for some fun. Apprehension? Maybe a little. He'd accepted this get-together on a whim, and he really didn't know her all too well.
But nervousness? That was the one that surprised him. He hadn't exactly been unlucky with the ladies lately. Houri was giving him dazzling smiles whenever they came across each other lately. Livia was visiting him when she needed attention, and was even being somewhat cordial outside of the dorm rooms. So why did Zinnia, who was notorious for her reputation of being hopeless around boys she had eyes for, have him double-checking everything he was wearing?
He was overthinking things. That must be the issue. He wasn't wearing the suit from the dance; It was still being cleaned of the slobber and slime that Von Fleet's dog had given it a generous coating of. He'd had to go out of his way to buy his own clothes, which had been an experience in and of itself.
Standing in front of the mirror in his room, he gave a light sigh as he ran his fingers through the rebellious tresses of his blonde hair. He'd opted for something not too formal, but not so casual that he was just wearing his usual. The black vest wrapped over his dark green shirt looked good with his eyes, the lady at the shop told him, and the slight shine to his trousers gave off a 'hint of danger', whatever that meant.
He was beginning to think he'd been hoodwinked. Hopefully, Zinnia wasn't particularly picky.
It felt weird, walking through the women's dorm section. He'd actually never been there before, which was odd considering all the visitors he'd been getting on his end lately. Some of the lingering students in the hall were giving him decidedly suspicious looks over his presence, but his eyes were fixed on the directions Zinnia had given him, scribbled on a piece of parchment in his hand.
It took him a bit longer than he would have cared to admit, but after a few minutes, he stood outside of what he was fairly certain was Zinnia's room. At least, he hoped so. It would be a little bit awkward if anybody but her answered.
Oh who was he kidding, this was going to be awkward either way.
Raising a hand, Silas raps on the door.
Zinnia
