Niq's mind went to shifting, but he knew even the idea wouldn't make sense to Isolde, "I don't think it's too far, I'll check it out first." He shrugged nonchantly. After all, his kind were more powerful and stronger than normal human beings, not that he was trying to brag or anything. He slid a little ways down on the roof, so that his feet were hanging off the edge. "Honestly, its not even far from here, believe it or not." And with that, Niq jumped down, glancing around the backyard to make sure no one was really around anymore. "Let me know if you need any help!" He called up to Isolde. Even though he's only knew her for a short amount of time, he was fully aware she could do it by herself, but it was his niceness kicking in.
( I'm gonna head to bed! I'll be back tomorrow c: )

Isolde silently watched Niq as he slid farther down the roof and as he jumped down. "Okay give me a second." She called before slipping back into the room through the window and grabbing her heels before coming back out on the roof and sliding to the edge. Gazing down at him for a moment before tossing her heels to the ground and jumping down, going with her instincts and rolling once on the ground to avoid breaking anything. Her kind might be strong and powerful but you never knew when you could get hurt. Quickly Isolde bounced back to her feet and brushed off her clothes and Niq's jacket before grabbing her heels. "Now what?" She asked curiously with a smile that refused to fade.
( Sleep well! )

Niq watched cautiously as Isolde came down. He wanted to make sure if anything happened, he'd be ready. As she got up and dusted herself off, he smiled at her, "I say we ditch this party." He chuckled, glancing towards the back gate while motioning his hands towards it. "Now or never."

Isolde raised an eyebrow at Niq. "And where exactly do you intend to go if we "ditch this party"?" She asked curiously, while ditching the party sounded like a plan since it was the New Year now so technically she could leave without hearing about it from Annie later.

Niq considered her question for a few moments, "You know, I actually don't know." He chuckled, giving Isolde a smirk. "Any place you'd like to go?" He asked, not really sure if anywhere they could go in the first place. It was midnight on New Years Day, nothing was probably even open anymore.

Isolde shrugged, pulling out her phone and looking something up quickly. "Do you like ice cream?" She asked curiously while raising an eyebrow before heading in the direction of the gate since if anyone was trying to locate them they'd probably be showing up soon. The chances of those who had drinks poured on them being mad was incredibly high.

Niq followed behind her, "Yea, ice creams great. But what place is open right now?" He smirked, actually curious of what she had in mind. You could still hear the party going on inside, with the loud music and occasional sound of screaming/glass breaking. He knew he'd be hearing all about it the next couple days. Niq was sure a lot of people inside were wondering where he'd been all night. He started the night off with playing drinking games, and here he was now, escaping with a classy girl he met at a library not too long ago. And somehow, Niq was incredibly content with it.

"Uh, there's this restaurant bakery kind of place not too far from here. It says they are open until 3 AM because of the holiday they generally are open late anyways." Isolde replied, she happened to frequent the place since they were open late and whenever she had a bad shift getting ice cream or some form of dessert seemed to help. While shifters were strong and powerful, if they had a bad shift they'd end up sore for days with bruises and the occasional scar. "It'll probably be a lot quieter then here if that doesn't bother you." She joked, hopefully Niq wouldn't mind seeing as he was a partier.
( omg it's like they are somehow going on a unplanned date what is going on. )

( i know right! it's so cute tho cx )
Niq smirked at her comment about the quietness of the place, "The quiet doesn't bother me," He laughed, "Want to drive or walk?" He asked, curious of her response. He knew his car was parked a little ways down, but she also said the place wasn't too far from where they were. Niq was fine with the idea of both, he just was ready to get away from the party environment.

( He's totally fallen for her, it's adorable cx )
Isolde shrugged. "Whichever works for you." She replied even though the idea of walking around town in heels didn't have much appeal. Swinging the gate open before steeping outside as she could hear people shouting from the room they had been sitting outside of. Smirking in amusement as she waited for Niq to reply. Looking back down at her phone and quickly texting Annie. "I'm leaving, don't lose my jacket."

Niq watched her for a few moments before he remembered the heels she was wearing. After staring at them for a minute, he pulled out his car keys from the front pocket of his jeans, "Driving it is then." He smiled, walking out the gate behind her. He closed it after him and walked beside Isolde. Niq kept his eyes towards the street, glancing around at the many cars piled along the sidewalk. The party was the party of the year. He felt a little proud as he lead her to his car, "Didn't I tell you this party would be a hit?" He chuckled, looking over at Isolde.

Isolde put her phone away before looking around at all of the cars. "I believe you did." She answered, in awe with how many cars had shown up since she had gotten there. "So, which car is yours?" She asked looking at the mass of cars that had appeared. It must be chaos in the frat house with so many people stuffed into one building. Hopefully Annie and Kayla didn't end up deaf by morning.
( You know what would be cute? If they ended up having a class together cx )

Niq stopped and looked at Isolde, "Guess," He smirked, looking back out into the jungle of cars. Considering his car was all black, it was hard to see, but he was curious what car she could see him in. Niq had a Scion frs that he had completely decked out. The car, which was "totaled," as some insurance companies called it, only had minor damage and no front airbags from the impact. He bought the car for a low price when he turned 18, and spent a he|| of a time making it his own. He was always eager to talk about it, especially since he's paid for everything he's done to it. From the new interior, new rims, new airbags, tinted windows; the list could go on. Niq was told by most that they saw him a jeep, or a truck, so he wondered if Isolde would get it correct. "Nobody's ever guessed correctly, so maybe you can prove that statistic wrong." He chuckled, keeping his eyes on her. Niq didn't want to give her any hints, so he decided not to look in any specific direction.
(that would be really cute!!! what class? c: )

Isolde huffed when she was told to guess, her brother was obsessed with cars so they weren't completely foreign. Narrowing her eyes she carefully walked around the cars to get a good look at them all, occasionally glancing back at Niq as she kept thinking. So many of the cars seemed like trash as that was all most college kids could afford, then the other half were fancy cars that their parents bought for them that weren't the greatest either since they weren't properly cared for. Niq didn't seem to fit either in her opinion, besides wasn't he one of the first people to have arrived? Her gaze landed on a Scion frs, it didn't look factory either, everything looked a little different.. Once again Isolde looked back at Niq with narrowed eyes. "Is this it?"
( I'm not sure, it would need to be a pretty basic class though... )

( maybe like biology or chemistry? they can be partners xD )
Niq couldn't help but chuckle to himself as she glanced back at him occasionally, watching her every move. When Isolde looked back at him about the frs, his eyes widened in surprise, "You're good, Ms. Isolde." He smiled, heading over to the car. After unlocking the doors, Niq, the gentleman he is, opened the passenger door for Isolde. He still was somewhat in shock that she guessed, but it felt like everything Isolde did came as a surprise to him.

( Those work cx just which one? )
Isolde flashed Niq a smile when he confirmed that it was indeed the right car and opened the door. "Thank you." She replied before getting into the passenger's seat and trying to look around the interior. "Nice car." She commented. This was a nice car for sure, thus making her curious if he had done all the modification himself and how he afforded it. With that in mind as she sat back and buckled the seat belt.

( well, if their second year students, probably chemistry! )
Niq nodded as a welcome before closing the door behind her. He walked over to the drivers side, opening the door and hopping in. Niq smiled as Isolde complimented his "baby" as he called it. "Thank you, I worked pretty hard on it." He chuckled. The car revved to life as he placed the key in the ignition. He buckled up and flicked on his headlights, "Alright, you'll have to tell me where to go." Niq spoke, looking over at Isolde. He placed his hand on the stick-shift, and put it in first. The car had a bit of a growl to it, which was one of Niq's favorite things about it. It was louder than most cars, but not too loud.

( If you say so cx College is one of those things that confuses me to no end. )
"What did you do with it?" Isolde asked curiously raising an eyebrow with glancing at Niq. Going quiet for a few moments and tapping her fingers on her leg thoughtfully. "Okay follow this street down to the four way and turn left, it should be the second building on the right." She answered with furrowed eyebrows. Hopefully that was right seeing as she didn't often drive or walk by the frat house since it was out of the way from her usual routes.

I know right...and i start THIS fall o.0 )
Niq nodded at her directions, starting to drive. When he got to the four way, he turned on his left blinker and eventually turned. "I actually bought this car damaged when I was 18. I started working full time and put all my money towards a new paint job, new parts, tinted windows, rims, dual exhaust," He shook his head, "I'm probably missing things but I did a lot with it." He chuckled, looking over at Isolde ever so often.

( Good luck! cx so are you a senior or just chilling right now? )
Isolde's attention was alternating from outside to Niq as he drove. "Oh nice, well you seem to have done well. But I might not know as most as others but my brother is a car nerd." She chuckled being able to appreciate a nice car. Looking closer at the interior to see how nice it was.

( Thank you! I'm a senior currently ^.^ )
"Oh really?" Niq grinned, as it was obvious he was a car nerd as well, "I'll have to meet him sometime." He smirked, looking at Isolde before his eyes returned to the road. After driving down for a bit, they eventually came across the second building on the right; the one she had told him about. He slowed and entered the parking lot, putting the car in neutral as he found a parking place.

( Oh man, all the seniors I know right now are so ready to be done cx )
Isolde smiled as she nodded. "If he ever comes here, which with him I never know." She commented, her brother was one of the most random people she knew. Looking out the window at the building. "This is the place." Isolde confirmed. The lights were still on and it seemed to have a decent amount of people inside but it wasn't anything in comparison to the party they had just left. Moving her hand to the seat belt to take it off once fully parked.

Oh yeah, definitely xD what grade are you in? )
Niq nodded with a smile before he turned his car off. He unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car, "So, is this like your go-to place?" He asked curiously, looking at Isolde as he closed the door of his car. He took his attention off Isolde and glanced at the place, observing the people inside.
( sorry, this was really short XD )

( I'm 10th cx which makes me a smol human, but college really isn't that far away and it's making me nervous. )
Isolde quickly unbuckled her own seat belt and jumped out of the car as well. "Yep, I come here probably once a week at least." She nodded while closing the door. Pulling off Niq's jacket and tossing it to him. "So shall we go in then?" She asked while beginning to walk backwards in the direction of the door. It was chilly and after discarding his jacket she was more eager to get inside even though there were people.
( Dude it's fine I deal with posts way shorter then that all of the time. )

( well my advice would to just know that it goes by very fast, and people/you change. which isn't always bad! also, idk why people say it's the best 4 years because if i'm being honest its been like the worst 4 years xD but that's just personal opinion. lol but are you enjoying it? )
Niq locked his car before catching his leather jacket, "I guess so." He teased, slowly walking towards the building. He noticed she was cold without the jacket, so he found it funny to take his sweet time to walk inside. Eventually he got bored and trotted over to her, stepping in front of her so he could open the door to the shop for Isolde. He threw the jacket over his shoulder and waited for Isolde to walk inside, "You know, I never demanded my jacket back." He smirked, watching her intently.
( ok good!! )

( very true cx I'm kind of liking it but I'm currently homeschooled so it's different even though I have one class. But I'm hoping for my junior year to go to public school with some friends just to kind of get the experience per se. )
Isolde turned around and walked to the door before waiting for Niq, why on earth was he taking so slow? Taking a step back when he came running over and opened the door. Rolling her eyes before walking inside. "But it's yours." She pointed out with a shrug. It was warm inside so she wouldn't need it anyway. So with that she walked up to the counter in the front and glanced back at Niq. It was surprisingly loud inside with people occasionally cheering and laughing, but it was still nothing in comparison to the party.

oh, thats awesome! i wanted to do that for awhile actually. but that'd be cool for your junior year to see what it's like! especially with some friends c: )
Niq glanced around inside as he followed after Isolde. Smiling at the people cheering and laughing, he figured they were having the time of their lives. Eventually, his distracting thoughts were cleared and he looked at the counter. "What do you usually get here?" He asked Isolde, looking around some more. He nearly looked overwhelmed. Niq didn't know where to start and had obviously never ever been here despite him living here for a little over a year.
( i have an idea...^.^ )

( homeschool or public school? cx I was going to do it this year but it didn't work out plus I kind of want to do only electives so I can work on the core classes at my own pace and in a way that works with my learning abilities. )
Isolde shrugged as she approached the woman behind the counter. "Depends on the day," She replied, so far she had tried most desserts they had. Then turning her attention back to the woman. "Hello, we need a small table for two." She requested with a kind smile. With a history of working in diners she knew that it was best to be kind to the service. "Right this way." The staff answered before walking off into an area with tables where there appeared to be less people. Isolde glanced back over her shoulder at Niq with the same smile before following the woman to wherever this table might be.
( please share your idea c: )

( i meant public school! will it be your first time in public school? )
Niq smirked at her response, waiting silently for the lady at the counter to lead them to their table. As the employee walked into the area, Niq gave a small smile back to Isolde. He kept wondering how and why he was still here with Isolde. If he was being honest, he never spent more than a couple hours with girls, or people in general. Niq shook his head to clear his thoughts; he got distracted so easily that it even bothered him sometimes. While the three of them continued to walk, Niq grabbed a good look of the entire place. It was cute, and had a friendly environment. He wasn't surprised a girl like Isolde knew of a place like this. However, he figured most people would think the opposite of himself. He was so tall, that the questions of "how tall or you?" or the long stares didn't phase him. Especially on a night like this, where his only real concern was Isolde.
( ok well i actually thought of two...
for the first one i was thinking that since Niq's little sister is a shifter as well (and is still learning everything about it) she could call Niq all frightened, and since he thinks Isolde is normal, he could be shady about it...and since he's really worried about his sister, he could run to help her instead of drive. So Isolde could curiously follow after him, secretly. And she could find out that his sister is a shifter but she doesn't know that Niq is yet?
for the second one, i was thinking someone from the college's yearbook could be at the restaurant place they're at now. and he/she recognizes Isolde and asks to take a picture of them. and shapeshifters have that retinal flare when they're videotaped or have pictures taken on them. so like a week or two later the yearbook person could find Isolde and show her the picture, asking what happened to the picture and Isolde figures out that he is a shifter as well.
hopefully that all made sense and we could do either or, or both, if you like them! c: )

( You are homeschooled? o: Well I went when I was in kindergarten but that doesn't count. )
The employee stopped once she reached a clean, empty table and set two menus on it for the pair. "Alright here you go, one of the waiter should be by shortly to assist you." She informed them before going to return to her post.
"Thank you." Isolde called as the employee walked away from them before pulling out her own seat and sitting down, gesturing for Niq to sit in the other seat before picking up the menu and going directly to the large dessert section. "If I'm being honest, I generally get something with lots ice cream but you can do whatever." She informed him with a faint smile as her hazel gaze drifted across the menu. Ice cream was one of those thing that she could never get sick of no matter how hard she tried, some flavors? Sure! But ice cream itself was great. Even if it was cold outside..
( ohhh, I really like the second one since it leave more time for like mystery and them getting to know each other better. the thing is though exactly what kind of shifting do they do? I'm one of those people who doesn't read much involving shapeshifters and stuff like that, it's really mostly werewolves tbh. So I kind of come up with folklore and stuff behind it on the spot because there is so much to go from cx )
