Svetlana was like a Venus fly trap. She drew men in by this supposed sweet nature and drew them in until she could finally clamp down on them and devour them. She was an expert at concealing her true intentions and drawing men in. Lucien was unable to even imagine what Svetlana had planned or was going to do. He was naive in the ways of women and had hardly ever been with one. He was amused by her. In all honesty he thought her manner of dress was odd. It was all designer brands and seemed almost customized to frame her perfectly. Why was someone as fabulous and extravagant as her talking to someone as simply dressed as Lucien. He was wearing random clothes that he had gotten a while back. He had no real reason to buy anymore clothes, he never grew any taller and he never got fatter. He never thought about money or buying extra things. Lucien's cruel, murderous nature hid itself with ease. He showed no hints of strength or of murderous tendencies, the only ones that he could not fool were other vampires. They knew right off the bat that he was old and could be perhaps a bit murderous. Svetlana would probably grow bored of Lucien and his clumsiness as soon as she milked his wallet for all it's worth. To him it never seemed like Svetlana was hiding anything, she deserved an Oscar.
Lucien felt a surge of embarrassment, how could he lose control of his own feet and crush this girl's toes. "You imbecile! You can't even control your own feet, how the hell can you expect to not fail miserably?" he thought. "I'm so so so sorry..." when she covered her mouth and looked down he thought she was going to cry. He felt a surge of panic come up in him. What was he supposed to do? Much to his relief she was alright and ok. He had no idea how to deal with women and how to comfort them. Knowing him he'd probably say something about tear ducts. He was relieved that she did not seem upset or angry. He looked around frantically trying to think of a way to make it up to her. He saw out of the corner of his eye a rose growing on a vine curling up the side of the gazebo. He reached over and plucked it handing it to her nervously. He blushed nervously his fiery red hair matching his cheeks perfectly. His green eyes showed hints of nervous awkwardness. He could not believe that he had just done that. He was so clumsy and so odd. He felt odd and sort of bizarre.
He looked down at Svetlana blushing nervously. He could not resist. He smiled down at her. "Of course I would love to." he said smiling at her. "Can we stay closer to the street...I don't want to trip over any roots and look like even more of an imbecile." he said staring over at her. The direction they were heading was near the downtown area with all the shops and such. Things that didn't really interest Lucien. He was making a critical mistake that would possibly haunt him in the near future. He was leading her towards somewhere she wanted to be, somewhere it would be even easier to manipulate him.
