Connor let out a nervous, breathless laugh, "I thought I really messed up there..." It was only after that was out of his mouth that he realized she had returned the compliment. He looked at her in near shock before a smile broke over his face. "Thank you." He didn't know what else to say, though. This was so crazy. It had been so much easier with Holly, who had kissed him first the first time they had met.

"Now if I could just see your eyes sometimes," Melody joked, finally raising her hand to move the hair from his face. As she uncovered his eyes she smiled and cocked her head to the side. Now would be the classic moment to kiss him....She almost did though when she chickened out. Letting her hand drop her smile remained although she didn't know what to say next. Everything that was popping up in her mind seemed sappy and unoriginal so she decided to not say anything else.

Connor felt something like shocks running through him just from the light brush of her skin against his as she moved his hair. "Sorry," he said, reaching up to attempt to tuck it away. The hair almost immediately fell back around his face, if not directly over his eyes. "It's...a habit..." His voice slowed and his eyes dropped to her lips, under the mistaken impression that they were still hidden though he knew they weren't. Just man up and do it. His eyes darted up to Melody's and then back down. Somehow, he found himself leaning toward her.

Melody was about to say something about his comment about his hair but at the motion of him leaning in, she forgot. She too leaned in and as their mouths touched she dropped all other thoughts in her mind. Instead she focused on the kiss, something she had wanted to do for a while now.

Connor's eyelids fluttered shut and he tilted his head into the kiss. She had let him kiss her, she had participated in the start of the kiss! His lips parted slightly and he picked up one hand to rest lightly against Melody's back. He couldn't believe how lucky he was. And it was everything he had thought it would be. Her scent surrounded him.

Melody ran her hands up to his hair then rested on his neck. She let herself close her eyes and deepen the kiss just a little more. She let herself fully relax at his touch to her back and then after a few moments she broke away. She tried to think of something clever to say but the only words she could think of were that it was an amazing kiss and he was an amazing guy. A soft smile grazed her lips and her eyes met with his. "That was great" she nearly half whispered, not wanting to ruin the moment.

Connor stared at Melody for a minute and then let out a breathless chuckle and nodded. "Yeah," he breathed. He so had to find Vance and talk to him about this. That had been so much infinitely better than any of his previous kisses. Not that they were very numerous, but there were enough to count.

Melody looked away and back at the freesias in the corner. The lighting had changed drastically so the shading she had begun to do woul look wrong now. She made a mental note to come back around the same time as she had been here today to finish the drawing. The sudden not knowing what to say feeling came over Melody as she looked back at Connor. A little blush appeared on her cheeks as she realized that she was still smiling and couldn't really stop. "So..." She said, her word filling up the space but left trailing at the end.

"So..." Connor repeated, then laughed and looked away. "So you came down here to sketch?" he asked, forcing himself to come up with something worth talking about other than the fact that he really wanted to kiss her again and talk to Vance. His mind attempted to take it further than a kiss, but he firmly pushed those thoughts away. He could think about that later.

"Yupp," Melody said glancing down at her sketchbook. "That was the plan, but I proved that there was a reason I am a better painter." She grinned then leaned over to pick up the book. She set it up on her lap then back at Connor. "I'd show you, but so far it's only an outline of the flowers. Nothing's really been filled in yet."

Connor glanced down at the book, "I don't know." He looked back up at her. "I bet it's still great." He didn't think anything she did could be bad, it had to be good. But what if she was horrible at it? He mentally shook his head. No, there was no possible way she was bad at it.

Melody, finally deciding to show him the unfinished picture, opened the book. She passed by a few drawing of objects here and there until she got to the flower page. The main outline was defintely there, even a hint of the texture of the flower was seen. It was just the lighting and shading that was needed to bring it to life. She showed the picture to Connor then said, "I guess I have to come back to finish the shading. I'll probably be here the same time tomorrow." She glanced at Connor quickly to see if he'd gotten the subtle hint of her wanting him to come back again too.

Connor didn't get the vague hint, but he did give her a rather large compliment about her drawing. "It's really good," he said, along with another few choice compliments. He wasn't sure what He took it as an opportunity to lean in a little closer to Melody. He wasn't at all sure what his boundaries were, but he was completely willing to push it just a little.

"Thanks," Melody said, continually repeating that. It was always odd to accept compliments. She felt like she needed to balance it out by saying something nice too but didn't know what at the moment. She noticed, however, that he was leaning in closer. She also noticed that she didn't mind it at all.

Connor shifted, moving his hand behind her so that his arm lightly brushed her back. "Um...we should go out sometime," he said, wincing slightly at how cliche that sounded. "I mean...if that's okay with you." He reached up with his free hand and rubbed at the back of his neck. He looked up at her. He couldn't believe he had just kissed her.
