You abruptly stood staring the blonde haired man down, "And who are you supposed to be?"

The blonde swallowed shakily and straightened himself a little bit, "W-well... uh... My name is Bu-"

"BEN!" Sari suddenly cut in, "His name is Ben... uuuuuhhhhhh..." she glanced around a moment as though looking for something, "Rhodes... yes.... Ben Rhodes is his name!" she looked at you with a bright smiles that she gave you when she was trying to get away with something 

you raised a brow and looked at this "Ben Rhodes" character. He gave you a shy, nervous smile that made you narrow your eyes at him.

"Hello mister Rhodes. My name is (y/n) Reboot." you stated extended a hand to him

He shakily took it and shook it his whole arm trembling with nervousness, H-Hi..." 

You noted the odd coldness his hand had. You pulled your hand away and picked up the grocery bag from the ground.

"How do you know Sari?" you asked lowly gaze hard

"uuhhhh...." 'Ben' rubbed his neck, "I'm.... I... work at a... park stand?" he spoke almost as a question 

"What do you sell?" you asked cocking out a hip

"Oh wow sure do have a lot of questions for a cute person...." he breathed softly 

You raised a brow, "Whats that supposed to mean?" 

The blonde blushed brightly apparently he thought you couldn't hear him. You stared at the nervous man down your lip twitching a little in annoyance. 

"Well.... I-I.. think you're... cute?" As he spoke his voice rose several octaves

You pinched the bridge of your nose with a sigh, "What are you doing with Sari?"

"Oh! We're just going for a walk!" Sari chirped happily

You hummed, "I expect her back at Sumdac tower by six." You huffed shoving Passed him

Sari looked at the mech-turned-man as you left, "Dude! You think my nannie is cute!?"

You glared our the window foot tapping as the clock ticked down towards six.

You glared at the clock.

'5:50' the red numbers blinked angrily back.

You sighed and ran a hand through your hair. You were anxious, that was about as hard to tell as telling a cow from a horse.

whirling back around hearing someone pull up to the front of the tower. You watched with narrowed eyes as sari hopped out of the small yellow car. You noted the similar model to that of Fanzone's.

You watched as Sari ran up to the door smiling. The yellow car, and most likely Ben Rhodes, drove away.

Ben Rhodes.

You'll figure this odd man out.
