Event #4 "And what does THIS button do?" [Tag: Chris]

[Dawn "Dee Dee" Dreemurr]

Some time passed since the moment Dee, Chris and Esmeralda woke up in the cafeteria. They didn't find any evidence (besides the blood of unknown origin) of other students and after a rather short and unsuccessful scavenger hunt, they have left the room.

While both Chris and Esme hang out it in the classroom 1-3, Dee Dee couldn't stop herself from researching even further. With a big smile and quite "promising" words: "I'll be right back!" - she has left the room.

Besides the cafeteria and the classroom, the group had access to a room Dee Dee wasn't that familiar with. The science lab. Being a C student she wasn't interested in such subjects as physics or chemistry, so the blond didn't attend those classes as often as others.

As soon as the girl has entered the lab, she was surprised to see long rows of tables with some strange looking devices standing on them, some broken - probably because of the earthquake - some still whole.

Holy shit! This place is like a treasure cove, filled with so many wonderful things! Maybe one of this bottles had an explosive or something that could get them out of here! She bent down and started to rummage through one of the table's lockers.

[Christopher Kresh]

After waiting for some time while talking to esme the red haired boy began to worry for the blonde girl. She would only be gone for a small while right? Splitting up was a bad idea to begin with. What if dawn fell in a hole? What if she got hurt in another way? What if she got hurt by some other creepy text? With a head full of worries chris decided he couldn't just wait it out. After deciding the cafeteria was safe he told Esme that he was going to get dawn back to the cafeteria.

He stepped into the hallway. His head was still pounding a little but that was fine for now. Dawn first, headwound later. He carefully looked around not wanting to hurt himself more in the progress. He couldn't help dawn if he was dead himself. That thought brought a shiver down his spine. What was it like to die..? Was it painful.. peaceful? Would he be able to see his loved ones again if he died.
He shook off the thought and snapped back to reality when he heard stuff moving. The sound came from the science classroom.

Taking a deep breath chris peeked into the classroom. ‘Please let it be dawn.’ he thought. Please let it be.. “dawn..?” he asked softly seeing a figure in the classroom.

[Dawn "Dee Dee" Dreemurr]

"G-UAH!" Dawn couldn't help but gasp at a sudden mentioning of her name, dropping one of the glass vials she was examining. The vial smashed to smithereens and the liquid inside of it splattered all over the tiled floor.

"Oh my gosh, Chris!" she gave him a big smile and squinted her eyes to confirm that the figure of a young man standing in the hallway was none other than the friendly redhead fellow... and not some kind of... monster or... something even worse. "You startled me, ha ha!" she rolled her eyes and snorted out a genuine laughter.

"It's okay! I- Oh man," her facial expression changed in seconds. "My sho-o-oo-oes!" she moaned, looking down at the damage the unknown liquid caused. A pair of nice 3-inches black heels was ruined, all covered in nasty white stains! Ew!

[Christopher Kresh]

The small scream made the boy jump as he had not expected that. “d-dawn?! Everything okay..!?” he asked with a worried tone in his voice as he rushed towards her.
“Oh my gosh chris!” she said “yeah..! Its me..! Did i-" “You startled me, ha ha!” so he did. He could tell. The girl was smiling her always ever bright smile but he could hear how she was nervous. She then burst out laughing. Most likely by her own fear of Chris. Why wouldn't she laugh. It was chris. How scary could he be. “sorry i uhm didn't mean to do that.. i honestly came to check on you” he said in a genuine way. He wouldn't want dawn to get into trouble.

He looked at her but moved his gaze down to her shoes hearing the sad tone in her voice. “o my god I am so sorry..!” chris said as he immediately felt responsible. He had startled her after all. “uhm..! Here!! Sit down!” he said as he got her a chair and gently lead her to it so she could sit down. He looked around seeing some old paper towels. They weren't exactly looking brand new but he could use them to clean the white stuff from her shoes. “here.. i’ll clean them" he said looking worried.

[Dawn "Dee Dee" Dreemurr]

"Ow," Dee Dee let out a surprised gasp as Chris led her to a chair. That was... incredibly nice. Even suspiciously nice! What was his deal?

Still perplexed and amazed by her new friend's behavior, she followed his commands like an obedient sheep. “Here.. I’ll clean them," the redhead said, showing her the paper towels, and brought the girl out of the trance.

"Oh, Chris, no! Don't worry!" the girl clapped her hands in embarrassment, her cheeks flushed red. "You don't have to," she mumbled, still sitting in the chair, her knees pressed tightly together and her palms clasped tightly round the rim of her skirt. She wasn't THIS nervous since her first time she did IT. GOD! What the fuck is wrong with her?!

[Christopher Kresh]

“Ow!” Chris looked up a little worried. Did he hurt her? he sure hoped not. “ are you alright..?” he asked her to be sure. Dawn looked confused. he didn't know why. The redhead just hoped he didn't do anything to embarrass himself.

"Oh, Chris, no! Don't worry!" Dawn said as he offered to clean her shoes. he looked at her. The girl looked embarrassed. "You don't have to," Chris looked at her noticing her body language. she was nervous, tense even. He noticed how she was clenching her skirt in her hands. “ Uh..” oh no. Did dawn think he wanted something from her. that was absolutely not the case. “ S-sorry uhm!” he turned red himself. “ I didn't mean to--.. I mean I just wanted to help..! I didn't mean anything weird! Is this weird? I'm not trying to be weird..! Gah! uh!” he looked away. “ H-Here..!” he handed her the paper towels. “ I-If you don't want me to do it but want to do it yourself o-or something.. uh..!” he didn't know what to do. he was rambling. Oh god. Now dawn would think he was some kind of creepy pervert! that was not his intention. “ I-Im sorry..! “ he tried. he looked away. “ .. I'm not making things better..” he mumbled to himself in a scolding way.

[Dawn "Dee Dee" Dreemurr]

“Uh..” Chris said and Dee Dee rose one eyebrow in curiosity and confusion. And then suddenly the boy's cheeks started turning red. Oh, gosh! Dawn what did you do?! The girl awkwardly shifted her eyes to the left, trying to not confuse the poor guy any longer.

“I didn't mean to-... I mean I just wanted to help..! I didn't mean anything weird! Is this weird? I'm not trying to be weird..! Gah! uh!” he said, clearly panicking. The girl looked back at the boy, but before she could explain herself, Christopher said: “H-Here..!”

The blond took the paper towels without even thinking and, after a few seconds of processing the situation, looked up only to see that the poor guy was now standing with his back turned to her. “I-If you don't want me to do it but want to do it yourself o-or something.. uh..!” he kept talking as Dawn looked back at the paper towels and then back at Chris. Did her really JUST wanted to help her? For..no reason at all? Not even a kiss?

"Chirs," she said with a soft smile, putting the paper towels at the nearest table. "-I'm sorry..! ..I'm not making things better..“ he apologized "Chris, no," she shook her head lightly from side to side, "It's... I-" the words didn't fly from her mouth as easily as they usually did, but she pulled herself together and said,"Actually, I- I'm sorry!"

"It's just... Nobody actually did anything for me just... because," she rolled her eyes and shrugged her shoulders. "NONE of the GUYS I've met so far for sure," she added inwardly with a smirk.

"So," she strolled around Chris to face him from the side, catching his eyes. "Thank you," the girl looked down on the floor and then up right into his kind green eyes.

"You know..." her voice shifted from soothing and calm back to her regular mischevious positive tone. "Who even cares about those stupid shoes!" with grace of a cat Dawn slipped out of her shoes and shoved them to the side. Now she was actually even smaller than Chris! Who would have known! With a big smile she looked back at the boy only to gave him a warm, tight hug.

[Christopher Kresh]

The small boy looked away as he did not dare to look at dawn. How could he think this was a good idea. She would most likely think he wanted to look under her skirt or something! Ofcourse not. That would be so wrong in many ways..! But he didnt want to make dawn uncomfortable. “chris” she said. Chris held his breath. ‘Here she goes’ he thought. ‘now she will tell you how much of a creep you are’. "Actually, I- I'm sorry!" Dawn said
Chris frowned. “ ...what..?” he asked with a small voice finally looking up at dawn.

"It's just... Nobody actually did anything for me just... because," chris studied her face. Her expression made him raise his eyebrows. “t-thats horrible” he instantly said without thinking. He couldnt imagine how boys, men, could be such.. pigs. How did they dare to ask dawn or any girl or woman in general something vulgar in return for their help?

“so” dawn walked around him to face him. The redhead looked up as the girl was slightly taller then he was. "Thank you," she said. Chris looked into her eyes as she looked away for a second and then looked back. “y-youre welcome..” he mumbled as he gave her a sheepish smile.

"You know.. Who even cares about those stupid shoes!" Dawn suddenly said. Chris jumped a bit and looked up. “wait wha-” dawn threw her shoes off and suddenly he could look her straight in the eye instead of looking up. Before dawn could notice his blush she pulled him into a hug.
Chris was startled for a minute as he didnt expect that. He gently got his arms around her holding her close to him as he hoped he could somehow put her at ease also. He just didnt believe that the happy front she put up was the truth. No way.

[Dawn "Dee Dee" Dreemurr]

Dee Dee couldn't stop smiling. Feeling a warm embrace suddenly tightening around her body made her feel like home. Like nothing has happened, like this, all was just a cruel nightmare, that was torturing her innocent mind and now it was all gone.

She looked up and their eyes met briefly, making her cheeks flush bright pink. "I- eh, he-he," she giggled softly letting the guy out of her tight hug. What's the matter with you, Dawn?! Stop acting like a fifth-grader, you dumbass!

The girl gathered herself together and gave Chris a small shy smile as she nodded towards the exit of the room, "We should get back to Esme, she must be worried sick, ha ha!" And with those words, Dawn took his arm and strolled into the corridor... only to lose consciousness and be teleported to a new group of people.
