"Sounds good." Hajime figured the best thing to do was head in the direction of the food court. The pair could decide on something once they were there. He was fine with getting whatever Emma wanted, and he knew he had more than enough money to treat her. Having a job did have its perks.

The pair left the arcade and went in the direction Emma knew to be where the food court was. It wasn't too far thankfully, she didn't think her stomach could handle a long trip. Soon they made it to the food court and the brunette looked around at her options. Burgers, hotdogs, pizza, oh there was so much to chose from...
"So what sounds good to you?" she asked, looking back up at the green haired teen. She normally tried to watch what she ate, staying away from greasy foods and stuff, but she supposed just ONE burger wouldn't ruin her health.

Hajime shrugged. He knew the two of them would never manage to make a solid decision when they were both so passive, but the Tora had a hard time being pushy.
"I'm up for anything honestly..." He paused, figuring offering something constructive would probably be a good idea. His voice was quiet. "I know you can get surprisingly decent burgers here, though."

Emma smiled. "Burgers it is then!" She agreed, lightly tugging him towards the the burger stand nearby. They got to the front of the line and the Kuma looked to the person at the counter. "I just want one cheese burger, and a small water to drink." She went to the small bag that was hanging on her shoulder, digging around for some money. She SHOULD have just enough to pay for herself, she didn't think Haji would want to pay for BOTH of them, it would just be rude for her to assume he would in the first place.

Hajime glanced over at Emma the moment she began fumbling with her purse. "Let me handle it," he told her. It almost sounded as if he were more asking for permission than offer. He didn't want to offend her or anything, but the Tora was pretty dead-set in his ways when it came to small acts of chivalry.

Emma looked back up at Hajime. Normally she would insist that she could get it herself and that he didn't need to worry about it, but there was a line behind them and she didn't want to hold it up. "Er, sure, if you don't mind, thanks." She said in a grateful tone. She took a set back to give the Tora room to make his own order since he would be paying. She'd have to pay him back later if she could, though she did appreciate the thought.

Hajime nodded at the Kuma before turning to give the cashier his order. He pulled his wallet out of his pocket and proceeded to pay for the food. He had more than enough to cover the cost. Having a job did have its perks.
The Tora stepped to the side, allowing the person behind him to step up while they waited for their food. He glanced over at Emma, a tad unsure as to how to pick up the conversation.
"So, um... how's school going for you...?" he hesitantly asked.

Emma looked up at Hajime at the question, shrugging a little as she did. "It's alright, I guess. Classes are easy for the most part." There was still Artemis giving her evil looks every time she turned around, but she'd keep that to herself unless he decided to ask for whatever reason.
"Boring stuff I guess." she laughed. "Though it's not like my life's amazing to begin with. What about you?" she asked, deciding asking the question in return would be a good idea.

"Same old, same old." He had relatively average grades (sans math of course, that particular topic had always been difficult for him) and still kept to himself for the most part. Despite opening up to people like Emma and Roman, Hajime was still as intimidating and socially awkward as ever, so his peers still had a tendency to shy away from him.
The Tora sheepishly scratched the back of his head while adding, "I mean it's not bad or anything. It's just been... average, I guess."

Emma nodded. "Yeah, there hasn't been much going on these days." she smiled and blushed a little. "Maybe that just means we need more days like this huh?" Hanging out with Hajime WAS a lot of fun, even if the two of them weren't really loud people, that was good. Just meant there was no reason either of them would get uncomfortable around the other(hopefully). She just had to make sure she didn't embarrass herself in front of him.

"Yeah." Hajime smiled a little at the prospect. "Yeah, I guess we do." He liked the idea of spending more time with Emma. The more they interacted the less reserved and awkward he felt. Maybe if this continued he would eventually reach the point where his social inadequacies would finally be a non-factor.

Emma's blush seemed to darken a bit when he smiled, smiling a little wider herself as she felt a tickle in her stomach. It was weird, why was he making her feel this way? It was a GOOD feeling, at least she was pretty sure it was, but she was still confused.
Thankfully her thoughts were interrupted when a tray with their food was brought to them. "Oh food! Great!" she exclaimed rather quickly, trying to block out her thoughts for the moment. "L-let's go find a table!" Another little giggle.

"Right." Hajime nodded and grabbed his food before scanning the food court for an open table. Thankfully, doing so didn't take all too long. "There's one," the Tora said, motioning to the two unoccupied seats he had spotted a little ways off.

"Perfect!" Emma agreed, walking along side the taller teen to the table he had found. She took her seat across from the other empty seat as the tray was sat on the table. "Thank goodness, I'm starving." her stomach growled once again as if to confirm it. She took her food and drink and sat it in front of her, looking back up at Hajime. "Well, let's dig in!"

Hajime sat down across from Emma and, as per usual, ate a few of the fries first. He thought for a moment, munching on them quietly, before deciding that now was a good a time as any to bring up something that had been bugging him for awhile.
"So, uh..." He tried to spit it all out before he lost any of his gusto. "You... you don't really have to answer of anything, but... That Daemon guy from awhile ago, has he been bothering you at all?" The Tora inwardly winced. That hadn't come at as eloquently as he had wanted. "I mean... I was just wondering. It kidna seemed like it." Daemon really liked Emma, that much was obvious.
