Spyk stepped into the chao garden. He took a quick look around and took off his shades, folding them and putting them into his pocket. He looked behind him at Haden, then back forward with a sigh. It was probably too much to hope that she had gotten over Shukko being swallowed by a cataclysmic earth-split in the ten minutes it had taken to walk here.
He was surprized that he had managed to convince her to get a chao. In fact, he still wasn't sure she was totally convinced.
Spyk had sent Matrym to his apartment. The lizard could snack on his rock collection; he didn't need the stupid things anyway.
He looked back at Haden again, motioning for her to go ahead and find one.

Haden had on a white hoodie with gold cursive that spelled "Aeropostal" and typical faded jeans. Her ears were somewhat cocked to the side, from the fact that she WASN'T over what happened to Shukko. He'd saved her, twice. He might not have even been there if she hadn't been in trouble. And she hadn't been able to save him...
Guilt was a consuming emotion. And yea, Haden blamed herself. That was one more thing that she'd probably NEVER get over. Spyke's suggestion of getting a chao hadn't really appealed to her. But now that she was in a room full of adorable little bobbly heads, that was all forgotten.
"AwwWW!" Her voice got really high pitched at the end, though quiet, like the very end of a dog's whine. Her eyes narrowed in adorment as she looked at all the beady eyes around the room, "SpyYKE! Which one should I get?" She asked retorically as she knelt down and petted the head of a small angel chao who was looking up at her happily with big black eyes.

"Hmm. I like that one." Spyk pointed to a 'neutral' chao that was running-not flying, running-in circles untill it got dizzy and fell down. It then stood again and ran in the other direction. Spyk put out a hand, gently stopping it, and it just kept trying to run. When Spyk picked it up, it gave a squeak and squirmed a bit. Then it met Spyk's eyes, and it calmed a bit. "Chao!"
Spyk gave a start and dropped it. "Did you just challenge me to a battle? So be it! Kung fu, to the death!" He struck a rediculous martial arts pose and did the obligational "Hwwwwwoooooooooaaaaaa!"

Haden laughed as she contenued petting the angel chao, "You would Spyke." She said with a radiant smile before she looked back down at the chao, "Hmm...are you a boy or a girl?"
"Chao!"[/i]
"...Thank helps me alot." She rolled her eyes and picked up the angel chao as she rose to her feet, then cradled it like it was a baby. She noted that this chao had a golden tent to it's body whereas most angel chaos were pure white, so she looked almost champagne, and bluish eyes, "Well, you LOOk like a girl. Spyke, do you like the name Brandi or Sandy?"

"Call it Perryn. No, never mind, that's a boys name, and it's not one of the choices. Nynaeve? No, not one of the choices. What was the question? Oh yeah. Brandi is cool. It sounds kinda like Brodie. Brodie was this wierd guy who was obsessed with comic books in the movie Mallrats. You don't need to know anything else about that movie. Never watch it." He relaxed his stance, removing himself from the pose. He now looked only moderately rediculous. The chao he was "dueling" returned to running in circles. "Hmm, I don't know. I really don't. Sandy works well with the color, too. I would go with Sandy." He looked down at a chao that had grabbed his leg. "What have? An interloper! Unintentionally you seek my recipe for greatness? So be it. Behold!" He lifted the chao like he did the other one, and this one looked at him like he was a nutcase. "Wouldst thou be so candid as to bite? I think not!" He set it down gently and looked back at Haden. "I wonder about myself sometimes."

"Brandi is a kind of wine. I thought of that since she's a champagne color." Haden explained, not daring to ask about the "Mallrats" Spyke was talking about in his long responce to her simple question, "Hah, you'd be great with little kids Spyke." She said in referance to his last statment about himself, and what he was doing to the poor chao.
"I'm definetly getting this one." The champagne angel chao let out a soft cooing sound, closing it's eyes as she cradled it.

"Aww. It's a Kodak moment." Spyk fished around in his coat, then checked his pants pockets. "Criminy! No camera." He sighed. "Ah well. I was thinking of getting one, too." He looked around, then his eyes fixed on another 'neutral' chao, one that was kinda sitting aloof from everyone else. He walked slowly up to it. It fixed him with a go away glare. Spyk stopped in mid stride, then did a theatrical spin, revolving several times and winding up aligned sideways to the chao, pointing at it with two fingers on each hand. "Avast!" He spun once in the other direction, and pointed with one finger, one hand, the other arm straight out away from the chao at the shoulder, elbow bent and hand grabbing his hat brims. "We have a winner!" The chao's aloof manner rippled, cracked, then shattered as it started laughing.

Haden laughed too, "You should name him Bingo or something." She smiled and put a hand on her hip as the chao she was holding drifted up and was hovering beside her shoulder, smiling at Spyke and the other chao

"Nah. Perryn. Thou name shalt be Perryn!" The chao finally sobered up and floated over to Spyk, going around his head a couple times. Spyk tried to follow him by spinning, but he got dizzy and fell. The chao landed on Spyks belly, laughing again. "I'd name you Matrym if that name wasn't already taken, ya little trickster." Spyk stood slowly, placing the chao on his shoulder. He said to Haden, "Matrym was my friend from Manetherin. He was quite the trickster." The little guy gave an amused "Chao...." He gestured to the front desk. "Shall we?"

"Weh shall." Haden said and walked over to Spyke and slipped her hand into his, then tried to lead him in a straight line to the front desk.
"Why ello there, two chao'?"
"Yes please."
"Tha'l be 30 dollars even."

Spyk followed closely, in the straight line prescribed, blushing when she had grabbed his hand. Perryn nearly fell off Spyk's shoulder, but he reached up and steadied him. When they got to the desk, Spyk produced the asked-for 30$. "Here you go, sah. Try not to buy a starcruiser. You'll be in debt for life." He placed three tens on the desk.
His face was still a little red. Perryn was trying to get Haden's attantion to show her his blush.

"Thank you." Haden said to the guy at the desk, who nodded and smiled at what Spyke had said, and she led them out the door.
Haden glanced over at the little chao and then at Spyke's face, and she couldn't help but smile. She loved how innosent he was in this. He wasn't constantly trying to act like the cool guy who nothing phased, or a perve, or a gangster. He was himself.
"And thanks Spyke." She said, leaning over and kissing him for the first time, trying to show him that there was nothing to be embarriest or nervious about.
Sandi giggled and covered Perryn's eyes.

Spyk's eyes widened in surprise, and his blush deepened further. She kissed him? That was kinda confusing to him for two reasons: One, he had yet to even try to put a move on her, mostly because he promised not to, and two, he was f*ckin' insane, completely nuts, and she knew it.
At first, he believed it was another hallucination, untill he realized that he had definitely felt it. Then he spouted a nosebleed. "Gah! Oh, um, sorry!" He pinched his nose shut and tilted his head up, wiping the blood from his face with his sleeve. "Really, really sorry about that...." He was still blushing brightly.
((In case you did not know, here is the reason behind his nosebleed: The blood vessels on the inside of the nose are really thin and delicate. If you blush too deeply, the blood pressure of those vessels will rise, and they will burst with an explosive outpouring of blood.))

Haden giggled and wrapped her arm around his, holding his hand again, "That's ok Spyke, do you want to go grab something to eat? I'm starved! And we could get you a napkin there."

"Um, sure, why not? I'm pretty hungry, too. Pick a place, I'll pay." Spyk was still a little confused. With the way she was acting, he might wind up with a girlfriend. An actual relationship. realization of that hit him like a hammer, and he very nearly erupted another nosebleed, but he exerted all his willpower to calm himself down, and his blush lightened a bit, then went away.
