Talia smirked, "Don't think too hard now." She said, wondering if he was thinking at all, or if he was just staring off at nothing. She took her arms down from the table and set them in her lap, legs crossed underneath the bench. She didn't know Drew very well, but still that he was a cool guy. She rapped her fingers on her leg, wondering what was running through that head of his, but reminded herself not to dig too deep. She tilted her head to the side and grinned, waiting to see what he'd say... If he'd say anything at all.

"What?" Drew asked sullenly, turning his head to look at her again. Seeing her grin, the edges of his mouth went up a bit in an attempt of a smile, but it wasn't very convincing.
"I didn't mean to make her cry," he said again, needing her to believe him. In his mind, that was one of the lowest things you could do to a girl and more than anything, he hated being that guy.

Talia nodded, "Yeah I know... Cuz if you did mean it, you wouldn't be so upset." She said, knowing that he was telling the truth. It was funny how they were basically in the same situation as when they were in the Library. Once again she was agreeing with him, and was having him know that she really did believe him. Talia looked to him now, "Maybe you should try making things right with her?" She offered, seeing as he might want to fix things between him and Ivy.

Drew shrugged back, not sure he wanted to take it that far. In his experience the sequence of events was he makes the girl cry, he tries to fix it, ends up making it worse and then she really hates him. Story over.
By letting it go now, he was really just trying to stop while he was ahead.

"It's up to you." She said, shrugging and looked up at the ceiling. She wasn't sure if she should keep going on the same subject, but thought maybe he wanted to change the subject since he wasn't saying much on it. She looked back to him, and sighed. "So, what are you going to that Ball as?" She asked, seeing as it was coming up very soon, and she was eager to see what everyone was coming up with. So far, everyone's was pretty good. She wanted to see if he could keep the streak going.

"I dunno..." Drew mumbled back, not quite ready to shift gears so quickly. His thoughts were still a mess and he needed a bit more time before he felt like he could exchange plesantries with anyone else. "How about you?" he asked, hoping she'd at least talk to him a bit longer and not run off like the other girls had done.

Talia grinned, "You'll see." She said, seeing as she didn't want to go through the hassle of explaining her costume for the hundreth time. She ran a hand through her semi-messy hair, and let her hand rest on the table in front of her. She wondered if Drew still had the previous situation on his mind, and she decided to be a little less chumy. She looked around her noticing the food, and grabbed a piece of bread, which was probably supposed to be toast, just un toasted.

Drew frowned back at her as she dismissed the question and proceeded with breakfast. "What, so you get to ask me, but won't even share what you're going as? How's that fair?" he asked.

Talia shrugged and closed her eyes for a moment. "I asked but got no response." She said offering him a smile. She was just trying to lighten the mood, and was only being herself, while he seemed to not be making any sense. He wanted an answer from her when all the said to her question was a simple, I don't know? She wasn't that dumb. Dumb... but had common sense. She smiled and continued munching on her bread, not really realizing how hungry she had been.

"I said I didn't know. How's that not a response?" Drew asked, still thinking she was being unfair about it. If he had actually known and said he didn't know, that would be one thing, but if he didn't actually know, then that was a valid response.

Talia shrugged, "Well, it's coming up soon, you don't even have a vague idea of what you're dressing up as?" Talia asked, finding it a little more than odd that for the first time she ran into someone who wasn't completely prepared. And at first, she thought he was just in another world for saying 'I dunno' but now she felt a little bad for not being fair about her response. "Ash, and I are doing a duo costume with yin-and-yang." She said, still feeling a little bad for being what she considered mean.

"I've got ideas, but nothing that really works for me," Drew answered with a shrug. "I was Zorro last time we had a ball, but I don't want to do that again. But Yin and Yang... that's pretty cool."

Talia smiled. "Thanks... so far everyone thinks it's pretty good." She said, glad to add yet another person to the list of good vibes she was getting for the costume. It wasn't grusome like it was supposed to be, but more casual and laid back. It was less work that way... Talia nodded, trying to think of what this Zorro was. She decided to just smile and go along with it to save her some embarassment. She eyed him now, "Any ideas for this Ball?" She asked, seeing as he didn't want to do his previous costume again.

"I already told you... I don't know what to go as," Drew answered with another shrug. He had had a few people suggest things to him (even Alhana) but none of them really seemed to work for him like he wanted them to.

"Right... sorry." She said. She sometimes couldn't believe how easily she could forget something someone had just told her, only moments ago. She sighed, and looked to the table top, as if expecting it to turn into something interesting. She looked back to Drew, "Well what is Alhana going as?" She questioned. She had never really asked him personally if the two of them were a couple or not... But by their actions near the lake, she assumed they were... Although everyone could assume wrong every once in a while.
