[Kili looks up immediately as the door opens, desperate for some kind of distraction. Brown eyes widen as Tauriel walks in. Tall, beautiful, and a complete knockout, Kili's been crushing on her since he first saw her, but he's never quite had the courage to speak with her.

She sits down next to him and his heart skips. He realizes after a moment that he's staring and pulls out a notebook, feigning homework. He scrawls out a message and gives Tauriel's foot a gentle nudge, pushing the notebook towards her so she can see.]

hey
can i have your number
why are you here

what brings you to my part of town this lovely afternoon?

[daughteroftheforest]

[Her gaze slides sidelong. It's Kili Oakenshield, one of those boys her foster brother can't stand and yet she's always considered to be pretty good looking. Always funny, rather sweet, and pretty tough - on the rugby team, after all.

Casually, she leans down to dig into her backpack, pulling out a notepad and pen and setting both down casually on her desk.]

skipped class. i'm a bad girl =)

[kilimanjaro]

[Smiley face? Definitely a good sign.

Kili grins. Maybe this detention won't be so bad after all.]

you, skipping class?

[He's heard rumor here and there of what the co-captain of the archery team has been getting up to, but the thing with rumors is that usually they're not exactly true.]

[daughteroftheforest]

contrary to popular belief i'm not perfect. like my foster bro.


[She offers him a one shouldered shrug, slumping a little in her seat so she can stretch out those long legs of hers.]

[kilimanjaro]

your foster bro is a ponce

[Oh. Hang on. Probably shouldn't have wrote that.]

...no offense?

[daughteroftheforest]

[She can't help it, she smiles. She is a little offended, but it's also kind of funny and he can take care of himself.]


you jealous, KO?

[kilimanjaro]

[Kili snorts audibly and gets a glare from the supervisor. He gives her an apologetic smile before scribbling down his response.]

AS IF

[daughteroftheforest]

protest too much, much?

[The corner of her mouth quirks in amusement.]

so how come you're talking to me now?

[kilimanjaro]

[Kili makes a face and rolls his eyes.]

we're both bored in detention. and i've been meaning to talk to you for a while

[daughteroftheforest]

O RLY

[The letters are accompanied by a quick little sketch of an owl with overly round eyes.]

[kilimanjaro]

[He laughs at the little sketch.]

YA RLY

[His responding sketch is...a stickman.]

[daughteroftheforest]

[She bites the corner of her lip to keep from laughing, but flicks her gaze upward to make sure the teacher isn't paying attention to them.]

why are you here?

[kilimanjaro]

[Kili grins sheepishly.]

may have called my teacher a cunt

[daughteroftheforest]

[Her eyes cast heavenward.]

charming.

[kilimanjaro]

[He grins and shrugs.]

that's me

[daughteroftheforest]

[Her brows flicker.]

so why were you gonna talk to me?

[kilimanjaro]

[He hesitates a moment or two.]

you're pretty

[daughteroftheforest]

[That was not the answer she was expecting. She puts her hand to her mouth to hide a smile.]

thanks. just because i'm pretty?

[kilimanjaro]

[Kili glances down.]

More than just that I guess

[daughteroftheforest]

i'm also smart.

[kilimanjaro]

i could use a tutor

[He winks at her.]

[daughteroftheforest]

[She mugs an are you kidding me? expression at him.]

Lots of girls are pretty. I want to be more than pretty.

[kilimanjaro]

[He shrugs lightly and looks around.]

you already are

[daughteroftheforest]

[A sigh.]

not what I mean. lots of girls are pretty do you ask for their #'s?

[kilimanjaro]

[Kili hesitates slightly.]
