It did sound a little weird, to say that he watches people, but he could understand it. Sometimes it was just easier to sit back and watch instead of actually going up and talking to someone. "Does that mean you are good at reading people? Like you know a lot about them just by watching them." he asked Milo curiously. If you watched people a lot you might be able to pick up on little things that people do and be able to figure out what kind of person they are from that. So he wondered if Milo could do the same.

"Yeah," Milo admitted "I'm no expert at it, but I can gather certain things about people. I'm better at that than being openly social." Studying from afar was what made him shy, so it probably wasn't the best idea for him to be doing it so much. "What about you?" he asked "How are you with reading people?" Lucas seemed much more at ease among the partygoers than Milo was, but one could never be sure.

"I'm not that good at it." Lucas admitted to him. "I don't really watch people enough to be good enough to read them." he added. He was more of a listener than a watcher. He couldn't tell much about a person just by watching them. He didn't exactly know what to look for when it came to watching people either. He then glanced down at his empty cup as he thought of another topic that they could move onto. "So do you know anyone here?" he asked him as he took a quick glance around the party.

"Just the host and another friend," Milo answered softly, taking a look around as well "My friend managed to get me to come after lecturing me how parties are great for meeting new people." Looking at Lucas again, he smiled slightly. "At least I have one highlight from my time spent here. I hadn't been able to hold an actual conversation with anyone else, not counting my friend." Lucas was indeed the best part of Milo attending the party. It was a little surprising how fast they started conversation though, seemingly at ease with each other's presence.

By the sounds of things Milo's friend kind of did the same thing to Milo as Lucas' friend did to him. And he couldn't help but agree with his statement. "Well talking with you has been my highlight as well." he said with a slight smile. "You have been the most interesting person to talk to so far." He wasn't totally sure why though. Maybe it was because of that feeling he felt earlier when he first saw him. Either way it was a good thing that they managed to bump into each other. "I think I'm going to get another drink." he stated as be glanced down at his empty cup. "Do you want to come with?" he asked as he gestured over to the kitchen.

The smile grew just a little when Lucas said that Milo had been the highlight of the party so far." Even though he enjoyed Lucas' company so far, he didn't get the feeling that the other man had. Just a wave of embarrassment, followed by relief when Lucas showed no anger for being bumped into. When told that he was going to get another drink, Milo was about to tell him to go, until the invitation was given for them both to head to the kitchen. Blinking his blue eyes once, slightly surprised for whatever reason. Upon collecting himself though, he said with a nod "Yeah, I'll go with you. I'm about to finish my own drink anyway."

Lucas nodded then gestured him to follow then turned toward the kitchen. He then maneuvered his way through the group of people in the room toward the kitchen. Once he got there he glanced around at what was still there before getting himself another drink. "So what do you want?" he asked as he glanced over at Milo. He might as well get the human his drink as well while he was there getting his.

Milo followed Lucas back to the kitchen, moving easily among the crowd. Upon getting there, he'd moved to get his own drink, but Lucas beat him to it by asking what he wanted. Head tilting slightly at the offer, he thought for a moment. "Anything is fine," Milo decided, not being picky "Surprise me." As he stayed in the kitchen with the other man, he took moment to appreciate the choice, tuning into the hollering and yelling going on throughout the rest of the house.

Lucas nodded at his request. "Hmm, alright." he hummed thoughtfully as he looked back to the drinks. He grabbed Milo something that he liked so hopefully he would like it too. He then turned back to the other man. "Here you go." he said as he handed the drink off to Milo.

Milo had been listening to the sounds around them, so focused that he almost didn't register Lucas holding the drink out to him. Embarrassed, he took the drink and said softly "Thanks." Taking a sip, he seemed to like Lucas' choice, smiling down at the cup for a moment before looking up, seeing more people walking in. Listening, he heard them chattering about the most popular news within the state. Wild animal attacks left and right, mostly during the nighttime. Yet, what was described didn't sound like any regular predator. "What do you think about the attacks?" Milo suddenly asked Lucas, looking over at him curiously.

Lucas watched him as he took a sip of his own drink, and was a little relieved to see that he liked what he had given him. And he was glad that he didn't make the wrong choice. He glanced over at the others that walked into the room then moved a bit off to the side to make sure he was out of their way. He then turned his attention back to Milo when he asked the question. "What? The animal attacks around here? It's probably just some feral dog or something like that." he answered him.

Milo looked a little disappointed with Lucas' answer. "Some dog that must be," was all he said, glancing back at the talking group nearby. Of course, the news was keeping a whole lot from the public, because that's what they did for topics like "feral dog attacks." Nodding slowly to Lucas, he turned his attention back to him. "You're probably right," Milo decided "I know squat about things like that anyway." He looked like a he wanted to say something else, but kept from doing so.

"I'm not completely sure that, that is what it is. It's just mostly a guess, since I don't know much of the topic either, but it sounds like it is some sort of dog." Lucas said with a shrug then took a sip of his drink as he glanced around the room. He knew more, but he couldn't say anything about it for the safety of himself and his pack. Since they may or may not have some involvement with the unusual predator attacks. "So do you want to stay in here or go somewhere else?" he asked as he looked back to Milo. The kitchen was a little bit more calm place to stay but he didn't want to be in the way.

Even though there was a feeling that not everything was being said, Milo decided not to address it. It wasn't his place to press the subject on someone he barely knew anyway. So, he only responded to The next thing Lucas said. "We can go somewhere else," Milo decided, looking around the kitchen "Give the people who are actually getting things some space." It was noisier and crowded out in the actual party, but he didn't mind. There was sure to be another decent shot to claim and hang around. Looking up at Lucas again, his big blue eyes curiously watched him as he awaited an answer, content with whatever the other decided on.

Lucas nodded at his answer. "Yeah, let's head somewhere else so we aren't in the way." he said as his dark eyes looked around the room. He glanced over at Milo for a quick second then he made his way out of the kitchen and back into the actual party. He then made through the crowd and over to a spot with not to many people so it was a little bit quieter. "This seem like a good spot to you?" he asked Milo.

Milo followed after Lucas again, looking almost like a puppy as he walked a little behind the other man, not interested in going anywhere else. Once they arrived at another spot, he looked around, saying "This spot's good." There was still some noise, but it wasn't as bad as the thick of the party. Looking back at Lucas again, he found himself staring for a moment before actually speaking again. "So..." he finally spoke "What do you... um... plan to do after this?" Most would probably head home or something, but there were some that went to go other things instead.

Lucas nodded then took a sip of his drink and looked around the room, looking back to Milo as he spoke so he didn't catch him staring. "Oh, I'm going to go home. Going to one party is good enough for me. What about you? Do you have any plans after this?" he asked him. He didn't really want to go to the party in the first place, he was mostly forced to, so after this he just wanted to go home. And since he wan't really a social person, going to one party was enough socializing for him.

"I'm heading home too," Milo admitted "I should've been asleep by now anyway." He'd seen a clock on the way to their new spot, and it had read a quarter to eleven. Most would probably stay past midnight, but not him. He didn't have the best experiences at night anyway, so he was already pushing it. Looking up at Lucas, Milo felt a sudden pang of disappointment, realizing that they'd have to part ways soon. It wasn't like they were close friends or anything though, having only met that evening, so he supposed he shouldn't get too down about it.

"Oh I'm never asleep at this time, even if it does seem a little late. I'm more of a night person." Lucas said to him, and that may partly be because of the fact that he was a werewolf. Being a creature of the night kind of does that to you. "When you say you should have been asleep by now, does that mean you are going to be leaving soon?" he asked him. It's going to be a shame when he leaves though, he was having fun talking to him. And who knows how long he was going to be at the party, but without Milo there probably not very long.

Milo blinked at Lucas' question. Nodding, he said "Yeah, I'm going to be leaving soon. Parties have never really been my thing anyway." He smiled slightly before adding "It was nice talking to you though." It really was. After another minute of hesitation, he developed that shy look of his as he offered "Um... maybe we can... meet up again sometime?" His cheeks turned pink at his own suggestion, but he really didn't want this to be the last time he possibly every saw Lucas. Why he didn't want that, he wasn't sure. Hopefully the individual before him wouldn't think he was too weird though, and maybe accept his offer.

Lucas nodded as he listened to him. "It was nice talking to you too." he said in agreement with a slight smile, and he was telling the truth. "Well sure, that would be great." he said in response to his suggestion. They had such a great time talking to each other that it would be a shame if they didn't see each other again. And that feeling that he had earlier made him want to see him again as well. "Should we exchange numbers? So we can make plans to get together again." he suggested as he reached into his pocket with his free hand and pulled out his phone.

Milo was no creature besides a human, so he didn't receive the same, sudden feeling Lucas had been given. However, he still got a feeling that drew him toward the other. And that was why he looked happy when Lucas agreed to meeting up again sometime. He half expected to have his suggestion turned down, but felt relief when it wasn't. When exchanging numbers was brought up, Milo nodded. Taking out his own phone, and pulling up a setup for a new contact, and held it out to Lucas so he could put in his number.

Lucas took the phone from Milo then typed in his information for his contact before handing it back to him. He then brought up a new contact on his own phone then handed it off to Milo to fill out. So the party has been quite a success, since he had met someone knew and was planning on seeing them again. That doesn't happen too often with the people that he meets, but Milo was different.

Milo took his phone back, looked at it with a slight smile, then put it back in his pocket. When given the other's phone, he typed in his information, then handed Lucas back his phone. Something good did indeed come out of attending the party, and that something was a potential friend. "I guess we'll just text each other whenever," he decided "Set something up when we have the time."

Lucas took his phone back when Milo was done putting in his contact information. He quickly looked over his contact before locking his phone and putting it back into his pocket. "Yeah, it sounds like a good plan." he said to him with a smile.

(It's ok)
Milo nodded again, glancing around again. "Well," he said after a moment "Since we'll be seeing each other again at some point, I think I'll take that leave I mentioned." People were already beginning to leave anyway, and he didn't like to be one of the last ones to do so. Turning back, he smiled slightly at Lucas. "I'm not a night person like you are, unfortunately, or if stick around and talk with you a little longer."

Lucas nodded as he took a sip of his drink. He wished that Milo could stay and talk longer, but he didn't want to force him to stay at the party. Also he'll have an opportunity to talk to him more when they meet up and see each other again. "Well not everyone can stay up all night like I can." he said to him with a smile. "I'll see you again soon Milo." he added.

Milo smiled sweetly at Lucas, saying "See you soon, Lucas." With that, he turned away from the other man to leave, shall telling the host goodbye on his way out. Even though he was leaving the party, and Lucas, he felt happy. Happy because he was going to see him again.
(Timeskip now I assume? X3)
