In her previous life, Elektra had been on plenty of dates. None of them had gone anywhere with the exception of Matt. They were just ways to kill time and prove to her father that yes one day she would marry someday to continue the Natachios family line. If she had those experiences, she might not have been nervous.

His shoulders shrugged up, "Maybe I just know your favorite color."
It didn't matter to him what sort of weirdness was going on in the castle, with her or otherwise, because he was going to make sure to concentrate on this instead of what tomorrow might bring.

Offering his elbow, he smiled at her, "Shall we?"
