Moira laughed a bit as she spun, spinning back into him a bit faster than she wanted to, nearly colliding with him. She blushed deeply, averting her eyes a bit. "...well I appreciate the sentiment, Ryan..."

"I mean it." Blink wasn't sure why, but his voice was soft. His arm wrapped around her a little tighter and his hand moved to the side of her face, turning it to him so she had to look at him straight.
Before he even realized what he was doing, he tipped her chin up and kissed her. Right there, in the middle of the dance floor, in full view of everyone. He kissed her softly, thumb creasing the skin of her face before pulling back a little.

Moira was about to protest when his lips found hers. She froze, feeling her face flush. It felt wonderful and strange, and her brain went clear out the window.
Looking at him, she was nearly stuttering. "What...what....why?"
Her heart was beating hard and she just felt incredibly awkward. She liked Blink...liked him a lot. But it was her first kiss. Living in orphanage, sure she'd been kissed before, but never on the lips...and never like that. Like someone meant it.

Blink licked his lips, and gently reached up, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear. "Because." He said quietly, almost afraid of how this was going to end now that he had started it. "I like you, Moira. Ever since you got yourself lost in Hattan, and we started to talk."
Twirling her a little so they weren't just standing there, his face was serious. "If I was overstepping my bounds.." He trailed off. He didn't want that.

Moira sighed and kept dancing, shaking her head, but again her eyes were just down at the floor, at her shoes, the blush still on her face.
"It's not that..I mean..." She sighed again, knowing she must sound rediculous. "I..I'm nervous..its...I've never been kissed before..." She frowned a bit, but didn't know why. Blink liked her too..that was a good thing. Then why was she still so friggen nervous?

Blink paused at that, tipping her face up once again with the tip of his finger. "That was your first kiss?" He asked quietly, emotion spiraling around within him. He had never been someone's first kiss before....And he was glad it had been Moira.
"That's an honor for me, Moira. You realize that? To have you on my arm, dancing with me...That's all an honor. You are a beautiful girl, inside and outside, you just don't see it." He smiled, softly. "That's why Im here."

"Yeah..it was. I've been sheltered."
Moira blushed again, pretty sure she looked like a giant tomato at the moment, but her bright smile flashed. She was still nervous as hell though.
"...But I'm not..." She laughed oftly and shook her head. "I'm just plain jane Moira, Ryan. Orphan cum Newsie who happened to get lost in the city she's lived all her life." She shook her head. "But I'm happy you like me. Really."

Blink started to shake his head, closing his eye for a brief moment, before opening it up again. "Moira." He said seriously, "Look at me. Do you see a lie in my face? To me, you are the most beautiful woman in this room. I kissed you because I wanted to, and Im happy that I can say I have."
He squeezed her hand gently. "And if you're plain, then I must be something without a name."

Moira smiled brightly. "...I just...oh I'll just shut up." She laughed and wrapped her arms around him, hugging him. "...And you're the best Ryan. You're amazing. "
She didn't completely believe him, but Ryan was the most handsome, amazing boy she'd ever met. So she was going to stop aruging.

Blink laughed, nodding. "Might be a good idea, yah....and Thanks." He kissed the top of her head as he hugged her back, leaning a little to whisper in her ear. "Follow me... Let's dance like we're supposed to."
He moved back until he was just holding her hand, and spun her. Who knew Ryan "Kid Blink" Ballatt could actually...well....dance?

Moira smiled, blushing. "Okay..." She danced with him, trying to keep up. She wasn't as awkward as she thought she would be, though.
She just didn't know what to think about about the kiss...but she just stopped thinking about it and danced.

He couldn't have been happier. He hadn't danced like this in a while, and he changed everything he did, just slightly, so Moira could keep up and learn at the same time. Eventually though, he knew he had to stop and he raised her hand to his lips.
"For fear of falling in front of everyone...I believe a drink and a brief moment of rest is in order."

Moira nodded and smiled. "Uhh...okay." She screwed up her face. She sounded like an idiot. "Sorry." She laughed softly and squeezed his hand. "Let's go."

"Sorry for what?" He chuckled, leading her to the drinks. "Nothing to be sorry for. Absolutely nothing." He took a second to fix his shirt as they walked.

Moira shrugged. "...okay..." She helped him straighten his shirt, and fixed his eye patch which had gotten a bit twisted. "There...perfect again."
