Are Lupe's features getting more... cave woman like?

He looks lost as he gropes for an answer, then tries, "Uh... I just... haven't had time to finish planning. Our, uh. Romantic.. dinner." He is blushing terribly now, and looking a rather sickly shade of greenish grey. "I needed to finish the plans. Or the... surprise would be ruined."

He attempts a smile.

And she calms, reverting..."Hey, that's great. Hey, you got my number right?" She gives it to him, "you want to surrpsie me, it's great but.." A wink "Got to be able to reach me... "Lowering her voice "And I want to reach you"

Nadeen fusses "Oh Sam, I know just the dress, is.. is there any color you like me in more though?"

Adam tucks his phone away, perhaps a little disappointed, and straightens up off the wall he was leaning on to watch. "So.... is there anything we should -do- about all this?" He asks of no one in particular.

Zane "About what?" The satyr asks confused "I just got here. Just..glad everyone's into the spirit of the day, you know?"

He sidles away, trying to stay out of reach. "I better go get things together. Uh, meet me at Lucia's Restaurant that Deserves a Name at seven?" edging towards the door.

Then he jerks and Checks the phone again, and texts.

"Gold. Like the sun."

"Apparently Cupid is making that happen."

"Okay" Lupe winks, "See you at Family Name was used but can't remember what it is then." God I just want to roll around in him for an hour and then bury him

And he opens the door and flees. Skipped classes, detention, whatever. Sending a message to Dirk - you got a date with Lupe at La Ristorante Famiglia at seven with Lupe.

Distracted texting.

Dirk texts back TEXT: What? She dumped me dude. I thought she did. Huh, guess once you go Cap, all others are crap!

Dagmar... basks. content in the glow.

Nadeen nods "Gold then" A nod "Backless maybe. That way you can..touch me when we dance"

Zane blinks "CUpids? Wow... well, good work by them I say"

A wince. He thought they were still going out. In any case, Dirk can handle it. It's V-day, maybe you can make up. And a sigh as he mentally calculates the cost of the roses and chocolates - wait, no. Non-chocolate candies. There we go, better safe than sorry - delivered to the restaurant for the reservation.

BLUSH. A swallow, and a nod.

Well, his budget will take a hit, but Symon might consider it a good investment

Piper comes clipping down the hallway, she peers around a corner, and then waves. "There you are! Oh, there you all are." Stepping over and leaning up to give Adam the chaste kiss on the cheek that probably won't flag any PDA alarms with the hall monitors.

Zane sees his cousin, and points to the others, "Cupid operation."

Her hand is STILL on Nadeen's cheek.

"Hey!" Delighted, he slips a hug in, too.

She peers at Zane quizically, then glances at Nadeen and Dagmar. A blink, and a slow smile crosses her face. "Well, I'll be. Glad that finally happened."

"Yeah" Zane says, bitter sweet smile intact. "Hope they can make it stick" Resolved, mature.

"Finally?"

And Nadeen says "oh wer'e going to be late for next class, and we don't have it together" A sigh

A chuckle and she gives him a bit of a poke in the ribs. "Maybe I have a second Satyr sense for these things."

"Yeah?" Learn something new every day.... "Well.... yeah, good for them. Makes sense." More softly "And damn, thats hot..."

"We could ditch..."

She gives him a tiny pinch. "Focus, Lothario." And then she had a grin, which widens as she has a thought, and leans up to whisper in his ear.

"Well, it's not your PE Class, your folks didn't say you couldn't ditch OTHER classes, did they?" Trust a member of an House Unseelie to bend the rules just a bit

"They didn't, you're right..."

And with that, Nadeen takes Dagmar's hand into hers,a nd guides her towards the exit. Who could stay in school right now when they could be iwth someone wonderful?

Zane watches them head off, muttering "of all the words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these: It might have been"

Adam jerks at the whisper and blunts "HELL YES!!"

She gives Zane a sympathetic glance, and releases Adam for a minute to give him an arm-over-the-shoulders hug. "You alright, bro?" A glance to Adam, and she offers, "If you wanna do something tonight, I can do V-day stuff later on. We can go somewhere and sneak a few drinks and play music."

"I'm good." Zane says "Even happy. It is about time" Agreeing with her

"I mean it. I can pre-game for a date later. Let's hang out, I hardly see you these days. ...I mean, unless you have a date, then I don't wanna infringe on your time."

"I got studies... I... "A smile "I found my passion, getting in practice. You and Adam hang. I mean, look at the guy, this is a hard luck case needing affection" Teasing his buddy

Adam does look momentarily panicked that Piper might be busy this evening.....

She snorts a bit, delicately, and grins. "Wanna skip lunch and see if the equipment closet behind the gym is unoccupied? They have some mats back there..." To Adam.

(It is, in effect, a rhetorical question...)

Zane smirks "Tell her no, and I'll give you five bucks for your amazing willpower"

"Hey, she's worth way more than that, Zane. Yeah, Piper...." and he slips an arm around her.

Zane winces "Oh might want to rephrase that one"

"What?" He plays it back in his head. "Uh."

"yeah" he says
