Tony slid his white gloved hand slowly along the boxes of produce as he pretended to be deeply in search of rare fruit (that more or less didn't exist), his eyes grazing along woman merely twenty feet away. He had followed her after their brief accident, yearning to learn more about her and catch perhaps another glimpse of her gorgeous pale white cheeks and glamorous dark eyes. Before Tony was aware of what was happening to himself, he caught multiple quiet words slipping through his lips as he followed along after her slowly, being sure to keep himself properly hidden behind the tall stacks of boxed fruit.

"While I am a clock and I can simply tell time, I do not understand how I fell for a girl so divine.

She is exceedingly gorgeous all those colors in her hair!

Beautifully creative, I believe I'm spinning into despair..."

He whispered with saddened eyes, gazing across to her longingly.

"For how could she ever look at me? I am blue, and as possibly boring as ever could be..."

Tony quietly said to himself, eyes falling for a moment before instantly lifting to once again follow Paige as he skipped behind another stack of wooden crates to keep her in view while she moved along.

"But this creature," he breathed, eyes slightly widening in amazement as he took in more of her beauty. "Watch how she gracefully walks... I can hardly muster up the courage, just for a talk."

Tony frozen place as he watched her delicate, longlashed eyes meet his own for a slight moment, noticing a flustered smile grow over her lips as she looked down and slowly turned the opposite way.

"With the face of an angel," he said, "I'm sure it hurt when she fell from above, and now I can no longer stand it, I think I'm madly... In love."

The human clock finished, breath slightly lost as he stood perfectly still in his exact position with his eyes on Paige.
