It took a moment for the words to fully sink in. Then he blushed with a smile "Your very nice as well." Why did he feel so shy all of the sudden? It was understandable after the kiss....but why now?

Finlay blushed and looked down, trying to hide but it was hard when there weren't any trees or bushes nearby. "Thanks..." he said quietly, bashful. Even more so now that he had said what he did.

James didn't like feeling this awkward, he was to used to being cheerful now. Even though he had other feelings, he wasn't used to showing them openly. Only Jesse had seen his other moods, while they were rarely if ever shown in front of friends. Yet he had shown more in front of Finlay....almost as much as Jesse would see. He knew he should say something, if only to avoid another silence. "It's the truth, so you really don't have to say thanks."

Finlay fidgeted on the other side of the table and tried to not bolt, but after a moment, he stood suddenly and blushed. "Can we... go somewhere not with many people around?" he asked, looking up at James with a rather puppy dog expression.

James looked up to him, and thought for a moment. Somewhere without people? James smiled and stood, then took Finlay's hand, starting to lead him as gently as he could. "We can go to the woods, they technically are part of the circus, and I think only the Shadowman lives there." he tightened his grip briefly. Blushing he acted on impulse, kissing Finlay quickly on the cheek before continuing to lead him.

Finlay's eyes blinked a few times as his hand was taken by James, though he swallowed down his surprise and followed after him easily; he had long legs for his height. As James spoke, he tilted his head to the side and looked up at him, confused by 'Shadowman' but he didn't say anything about it. What he did do, however, was grow very still as his cheek was kissed.
The touch itself caused heat to slowly grow from that spot alone to every part of his body. Face feeling as if it were on fire, he hid behind his hair and tried to figure out why his heart beat so fast within his chest.

James was blushing deeply by the time they got to the woods. He was surprised at himself for acting on impulse, and was worried about what kind of reaction Finlay had from it. Once in the woods he had no choice but to face Finlay. He looked down to their interlocked hands, still nervous about meeting his eyes to Finlay's. "Is this ok?"

Finlay followed James quietly, not really having an adverse reaction to the kiss to his cheek, rather, it was quite the opposite. He liked it, but had no idea what it meant or why. Once they reached their destination, he stopped, but catching where James was looking and hearing his question, he nodded. "Yea, I don't mind holding hands."

James finally looked up "Ah! I meant the spot!" but he was glad that Finlay had answered that way. He was also glad to see that Finlay didn't seem upset in any way because of his quick kiss. His blush faded and he began to feel a little more relaxed. "Is this spot far enough?"

Finlay went bright red when James said it had been the location he meant with his question and he quickly hid behind his hair again. Oh how he loved having long hair. "Yea, it's fine." he placed his index finger's knuckle against his mouth and lightly bit it.

James smiled brightly "Good, I'm glad here is fine...and I'm glad this is fine." he indicated that he meant holding hands for the second part. "So, now that we are here, what did you have in mind?"

Finlay blushed and looked around at the surrounding forest. Though as he heard James ask another question, he looked back to him and gave a little shrug. "What do you want to do?" he asked, tilting his head to the side. "All you've done is ask me... what about you?"

James laughed a little, he couldn't help it. "Your the one who wanted somewhere quiet!" he released his hold on Finlay's hands and plopped down against a nearby tree with a sigh. "I don't really care, I'm happy being with someone." he crossed his arms behind his head and rested against the trunk. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath in, sighing again in a relaxed way. "I guess we could just enjoy our surroundings, and enjoy each others company."

Finlay stared at James as he laughed and sat down beside the tree, blushing at his words, but confused. He moved and took a seat next to James, bringing his legs up and against his chest, he rested his arms upon them and looked to the elf. "The surroundings are nice," he commented, though didn't seem to know what else to say.
Boy, he sure felt awkward. What did one talk about with a friend?

James opened his eyes, they had gained a somewhat sad cast to them. He always thought of his grandfather when he was around trees. "Yea....the woods near where I used to live were peaceful like this....my grandfather always told me elves lived in woods like this." he seemed thoughtful for a moment "In truth, besides my close relatives I've never seen other elves....except Voltaire." he seemed sad while talking about this, but for some reason he couldn't stop "My sister doesn't know it, but grandfather used to let me read his old books while she was having horse riding lessons. They were all in elvish, so I taught myself the language, so I could read the books better." he gave a soft laugh "My grandfather was a little surprised when I started talking to him in elvish, and he told me it must be because of my grandma's blood that I learned so quick." He closed his eyes again, wanting to talk about something else, ANYTHING else. "I miss him. He was a good man."
