The fair hand stopped mid wave and slowly fell to her side. Almost as a natural response her fingers began to move themselves back and forth on the black cotton dress. She felt her hands slowly being covered by beads of sweat and she knew she had a very nervous look on her face, and there was nothing she could do about it. Come on Emsley...he looks nice enough. I'm sure he just wants to be friendly...not every person you meet will be like...them. You can't live your life like that. Her grey orbs stared at his blue as she opened her mouth to speak. The simple words hello or hi my name is Emsley were playing on the tip of her tongue, but would not find their way past her thin, rosy lips. She felt her face grow bright red. She rose from her chair with a small struggle for balance, and continued to stare at him for a few more seconds before turning to walk away. One footstep fell to the ground before she turned once more to the stranger. Emsley...you have to move on. Not everyone is like them. You will die alone if you do not move on. The very timid young woman sighed deeply as she took her seat at the bar once more. "I'm so very sorry for my behavior. I guess you could say I'm not much of a people person." She cringed slightly at the word people..because to tell the truth, whether they were human or another type of being, Emsley was not one for their company. "My name is...Emsley. Emsley Weekes. It was very nice of you to sit next to me and talk to me." Her face grew red with embarrassment again. "I mean...well...uh..hah...well even if you didn't sit next to me on purpose it was nice of you to talk to me." She gave a nervous yet brilliant smile. "Well I suppose it's only proper to ask you a question in return. Heh. I'm not a very good conversationalist." Another nervous smile crept across her lips.
