It was her first time to visit China, and when to come at a better time than during the Autumn Festival? Wearing a traditional hanfu gown, Hikari made her way through the crowd of people to get a better view of the fire works. When she had seen the pond, her blue eyes were caught up in the sight of the lanterns and lights dancing across the water's surface, but when she saw the man sitting there at the water's edge she felt her heart skip a beat.

With all the beauty she had seen this evening, nothing could compare to the man's rather regal features. She instantly wished to be beside him. There was something about him, more than his eyes or the way he sat with a silent sort of pride.

Another firework went off and the light shined just above his head, causing an almost halo affect around his features.

"A guiding light-"

No, she hadn't realized that she was staring.

I'm sorry for the delay! xkingmovesfirst September 29 2011, 09:45:35 UTC
Hearing a noise behind him he turned around to search for its source. Oh, apparently that was the woman in the green gown. Lelouch nodded politely in a greeting manner.

"Good evening."

Who was she? Certainly none of the people he knew. Though she didn't look too threatening. Right, he knew all too well that the looks may be deceiving, but giving her a friendly smile wouldn't hurt. And so, he gave her a soft smile.

"May I help you somehow?"

"N-No, I was just admiring the fireworks from here," she blushed a bit when he spoke to her. Regal certainly was the appropriate word. She continued to stand as the fireworks went on, knowing full well it was rather rude to barge in on the man's spot and yet not wishing to leave his side. Maybe this was a blessing of sorts?

She noticed the food then and blushed again, "Oh, I'm sorry, were you expecting someone?" She stepped to the side as though she had the intention of leaving, though truthfully, she really just wanted to stay beside him. What had come over her? Sure he was handsome and held himself rather well, but she was simply making a fool of herself.

It was a little odd, the way that woman was behaving. However since it seemed like it was due to shyness, the emperor's smile widened a little as he returned to observing the sky.

He turned back to the stranger when she asked him a question. For a moment he just stared, then shook his head. "I wasn't. I just found all of this here." Why would he be waiting for someone? He couldn't be expecting any company; not him, not now. He was alone.

"Feel free to join, if you have some spare time." Why did he actually say that??

"Ah, thank you," she smiled genuinely at him, surprised herself that such a man would be so welcoming. It was easy to see he was a confident man, but her intuition told her he was rather reserved as well.

She hadn't been this attracted to someone in some time, and usually, for everyone's sake, she stayed away from people as much as possible. The pull she was feeling towards him was too strong, however.

She sat down and finally relaxed. From the looks of him, he wasn't Chinese was he?

"Are you from Japan?" she asked curiously in Japanese, blushing a little. It was quite the assumption, but she was native to there and spent most of her life in that country, so she was hoping her assumption was correct.
