Welcome to Gaia! ::

Clover nodded in the black and tried to steadily get her legs straight and standing, which felt easier said than done. She felt clumsier than ever, feeling abit embarrased. Her arms still formed a hug around Seth as she tried to get herself standing. She almost didn't realize they were sitting on the floor, which was pretty much dirty from the other people walking on it.

Quickly trying to get her body together, and with the help of Seth, she got her legs to finally allow her standing. 'Gah, I bet I'm such a clutz to him!' She thought to herself with doubt. "I-I'm sorry.." She said in a whisper, head down, apologizing for her, 'floppiness'.
His voice felt so soft, so gentle in her ears. It made her feel more calm in a way. Her eyes slowly shut, and she raised her head to face him, despite the darkness of the mall and the closure of her eyes, keeping her away from seeing him.
Then as if in an instant her eyes shot open in suprise as she felt Seth's kiss, which felt strong, yet gentle on her cheek. She felt her face burning up as her face flushed red, her emotion felt too great to keep silent, and she let out a small gasp in shock. She felt her knees buckling.

As Seth's kiss had ended, her head lowered, feeling shy as she heard his voice. Although her head was down, her eyes still looked up at him, stuttering, "I..I'm okay, really.." She said, her eyes slowly closing, her grip on the hug loosened, but not too much to break away from the embrace.
'Huh? Look?' She opened her eyes, suddenly filled with light from the now revived lights of the mall. She could see that because of the power failure, some people seemed to have been able to leave, but to where, she wasn't sure. She didn't think people would leave the mall and go out into the pouring rain.
She didn't notice she was still Hugging Seth. She tried to break away from the hug, although with Seth giving more force towards her, and with her grip on the hug loosened, she felt unbalanced, being pushed back on her heel, she nearly stumbled over, but was capable this time of gaining her footing before falling all the way, although her legs still feeling uneasy, she gently ended up sitting down on her bum. Clover lowered her head, feeling her negative thoughts of being clutzy again, meanwhile though, gently brushing with her fingers the spot where Seth had kissed her on the cheek, wondering, 'Why?' She blushed.

(( o///o ))

Her Train of thought was halted as she heard Seth, "Wha? oh, it's.." She said, although her voice trailed off unfinished as she noticed how close Seth was to her, and his eyes looked into hers, feeling like as if he was able to look into her thoughts through her eyes. She kept trying to avoid eye contact with Seth's but she couldn't stop staring back into his eyes as she tried to finish her sentence, "Um.. I-it's.. okay.." She said shyly, her cheeks feeling warm and rosy pink.

Clover blinked to what he said "H-huh? Are you sure? I.. I wouldn't mind helping out with your list too.." She said, slowly getting up after him, "I'd be fine doing it, really.." She walked next to him, Placing her palm over his hand, her fingers curling around between his fingers, hers touching his palm. She gave him a small reassuring smile, her cheeks tinting pink. She wanted to show she was up for anything.

"Aww, I'm fine Seth.." She said in a gentle tone, lightly squeezing his hand, "Thank you for caring about me though.." She said sincerely, "If you want to just clear my list first, then I guess I'll go with that" She nodded in agreement.

She looked at the location his hand pointed over, reading the banner and looking onwards into seeing the store. Clover thought it would be a good place to find Gobstoppers and Skittles, "I think it's a good place to look for it" She said as she took a closer look into the store, letting to of her hold with his hand. Being up close she was able to look at least a fair distance to see what was in the store. Although before she could go into the store she wanted to wait for Seth.

Clover examined Seth's estimate of size of the gobstoppers box. 'That seems fitting enough for Mave..' She nodded towards Seth, aknowledgingly, and walked into the store. The flowing scents of the store smelled nice, like the mix of coffee and candy. She curiously looked around in their candy section, trying to find the suitable candy for Maverick, "Hmm.. Swedish fish.. Laffy Taffy.. Oh! Here's some skittles!" She said in success, picking up two packages of it, then continued onward to find her remaining Gobstoppers.
