"My other... what?" she asked again for she believed to have heard wrong. Could he possibly be flirting with her? After that first impression, sweat on his forehead and that dinosaur onesie on?
The previous events had gone by real fast and her head seemed to be unable to let that what seemed to be pick up line sink in.
She then decides to keep her mouth shut and waits there, speechless, for the onesie boy to explain himself further.
But he doesn't, he just waits there for the girl to answer, expectant and still embarrassed, but looking right into her eyes nonetheless. Something that after a while started intimidating the girl.
"Do I know you...?" the latter said, breaking the staring contest and the awkward silence, still trying to sound as kind as possible.
"...No? I don't think we have met before" the boy replied noticing the girl's features, thinking to himself how stunning she actually was, despite the fact that her concerned and confused look was slightly comical. He adopted an unbiased expression as he took a handkerchief out of one of his pockets and started wiping the sweat off his hands, switching them to hold the flyers -now kind of crumbled and disorganized- and his forehead respectively.
To that the girl was left perplexed, starting to think the boy had hit his head harder than she had thought.
Was he being serious? Did she really find herself being flirted at by a stranger wearing a dinosaur onesie and handing out flyers? Right after being pulled onto the ground by said stranger? The girl had never found herself in such a confusing situation...
That's when she saw what was written on the flyers, and she felt the blush creeping out on her cheeks. How could she have taken for granted that a weird yet cute boy was flirting with her.
"Haha well y-you see, I'm running late, yeah, like right now I think? Yeah so... well you know, no thanks?" She babbled on not thinking of what to say as she faced towards the direction that would lead her to her apartment where she would have a delightful meeting with her sweatpants, that half cooked pepperoni pizza and her bed.
The now confused and still sweaty boy saw the girl he had just bumped into leave rather fast, only that he hadn't just bumped into her but grabbed her wrist and pulled her down to the ground, fell right on top of her leg and then continued by asking her if she wanted to meet her other half...
That's when he realized he didn't give her the flyer.
