Alex grinned, glad that she could spend more time getting to know the two of them. She was pretty sure she couldn't really do ballet lessons on the beach but at least Aithne could get some sunshine and she could get to know more about Aithne's big brother, Azriel. She waggled her eyebrows playfully at him as she shrugged her shoulders. "That sounds fair enough." Alex vaguely wondered if he had remembered her proposition but thought nothing more of it. They'd have time to spend together tomorrow and maybe then, he'd ask her out. Hopefully. She turned to Aithne and grinned. "It's getting really late and I'm pretty sure your brother doesn't want you to stay out too long. So maybe we'll part ways here and I'll see you tomorrow?" She grabbed her phone from her pocket and offered it to Seth. "Maybe I could get your number so you can text me what time we'll meet tomorrow?"

"What, you don't want us to walk you home?" Seth teased, taking her phone and putting his number in. He stood, Aithne standing as well. She stretched, letting out a yawn. "Yeah, we can walk you home~" Aithne said, taking Alex's hand. "We'll take you home first missy. It's past your bedtime." Seth said to Aithne.

Alex laughed as she took the phone from him, her fingers brushing against his. "Well you don't have to but you can." She took Aithne's hand and lightly squeezed it as she put money on the table for their food. "My treat; you can make it up to me some other time." She winked at Seth. She watched Aithne protest and giggled. "Aww come on sweetheart, the sooner you get to bed, the sooner tomorrow will come and then we can hang out at the beach like you wanted, right?"

"Okie." Aithne was clearly pleased with that answer and stepped out of the booth. "I have to use the bathroom. 'Scuse me." With that she dashed off to the little girls room, leaving Seth and Alex alone. "It seems there's a lot I have to make up to you." Seth commented. He smiled a bit. "But I don't mind. It just means that I get to see you that much more." He smirked when Aithne came bouncing back moments later. "So, how early do you wake up in the mornings?"

Before Alex could add in another word, Aithne disappeared and she looked at Seth with an amused smile on her face. She quirked a brow and put a hand on her hip before looking at him in curiosity. "Are you flirting with me Seth?" Her smile widened fractionally as he couldn't really admit whether he was flirting or not since his little sister had come back. She shrugged. "I guess it all depends on if I have anything to wake up for. What time does your sister like getting up?"

"Aithne is an early riser. Around 8 or 9 and she's up." He smiled a bit and held out his hand for Aithne to take it. "Come on girls. Let's get you two home." He laughed. "Going to the beach isn't worth waking up for?" He teased Alex as they began to leave the diner.

Alex grinned as they made their way to the door and began walking home. "Alright then, meet you at the beach at... oh 8:30? I'll just text you or something." She turned to him and offered him another one of her quizzical smiles. "Hmm, not when you're going to the beach alone..."

"8:30 it is." Seth began leading them in the direction of his home, planning to take Aithne home so he could walk Alex home alone. He looked down at her, his lips curved in a smile. "Maybe if you had someone with you?"

Alex grinned. "Okay then." They walked towards his house in silence and she kept her eyes on Aithne as she walked in between the both of them, both her hands were occupied. She looked up to meet Seth's gaze and winked. "Mmm, see it all depends on who was with me. If it was Apollo, my cousin who switched shampoos, I still wouldn't get up. If it was my godmother... Maybe... But just because she's nice and eccentric and fun to watch... But I don't know if it would be worth it." But if it was the guy I liked? Most definitely.

"Hmmm." Seth mused over her answers as they neared his street. "What if it were with me?" He looked over at her with a raised eyebrow. "Would you get up if I wanted to take you anywhere?" He wanted to spend more time with her, just the two of them. He wanted to get to know her better.

She stopped right at his house, even if she didn't know that he lived there and she turned to him, releasing Aithne's hand so she could cross her arms over her chest, smiling as she tried to contain the nervous fluttering that seemed to have gotten stronger. "I guess it depends. If you're trying to ask me out, then yes I would get up to see you..." She tilted her head and grinned at him as she gestured at his house. "Is this your house?" She wanted to talk to him more but felt a bit awkward, flirting with him while Aithne was still there.

"That it is." He smiled, turning to back towards his house. "Stay right there missy. I won't be but a minute." With that he took Aithne up the stairs into the house, making sure she was in her room getting ready for bed. He called to his mom that he would be back in a bit and ran back outside to Alex. "Miss me?" He teased.

Alex nodded and watched them disappear into the house. She turned to look heavenwards and smiled at the stars that seemed to brighten the seemingly dark sky. She found a few constellations before Seth returned and when he did she shrugged. "Nope... Didn't miss you at all." She winked though to show that she was teasing. She pointed towards the direction of Seaview Circle. "My house is that way if you want to walk me home... We can walk slowly though so we can talk more." She waggled her eyebrows teasingly at him as she turned and started walking.

"At all? Not even a tiny bit?" Seth asked as they began walking towards her house. "That hurts you know." He pouted, crossing his arms. He realized he probably looked silly doing so but he didn't really care. "I would've missed you, you know." He chuckled then, looking down at her. "And to answer your question from the diner, I believe I was flirting with you." He smirked. "Was it not obvious? I may have to step up my game if not, hm?"

She turned to face him, walking backwards. Alex grinned at him and shrugged. "Fine... Maybe a little bit. But I'm only saying so so your poor ego won't be so affected." She quirked a brow and scoffed as if offended. "Well then, let's make it fair. You missed me and I missed you. I won't miss you if you didn't miss me." She grinned at him as she waited so she could fall into step with him. "Oh it was quite obvious, just making sure that you could tell that I was flirting right back." Alex didn't know what she was allowed to do but when they were walking side by side, she slipped her hand into his nonchalantly.
