"Yeah, I guess so."Niko said. However, he was anything but enthusiastic. He didn't agree. Nah, not really at all. Girls weren't particularly 'good to look at'. And though he wished he could, he couldn't pretend that he really did agree. When Cyrus stopped, Niko didn't really feel like trying to touch his hair again. It had really been about seeing how he really would agree, it seemed. But it wasn't that important to him so he decided not to do it.
"I don't know, either, Cyrus."Niko shrugged, looking around as if doing so might remind him. Fortunately Cyrus didn't seem to want him to tell so Niko's gaze shifted back. To see Cyrus standing there with his hand on his hip made Niko chuckle; wasn't expecting that pose.
"Lost. . .Hm."Niko repeated. He wasn't really worried, he really didn't care too much."I dunno. I don't really have a preference. What do you think, Cyrus?"

Cyrus raised a brow at Nik, "If I had any, I think I would of mentioned them." He chuckled, "Hmm, well I have no idea which way to go and I don't know really what to do." He tapped his booted foot on the ground in thought.
"Sure you don't have any ideas?" Cyrus asked the boy before looking away and off to the side. "You would think they would of posted signs for people who get lost..." Cyrus muttered as he made a face or rather pouted, although it looked rather funny.

"Good point, Cyrus."Niko nodded in response. Yeah, of course he'd mention it. He was just kinda hopeful. . .
"Um. . .I don't really like climbing trees, though you proved you can. . .Um, instead we can. . ."Niko trailed off for a moment, looking around for inspiration. It was hard ot think of something to do with a cute boy- very hard. Strange as that was, he couldn't seem to think of anything random.
"I would think that they'd have signs, yeah."Niko agreed willingly. They should, it was a school after all.
"But, if we weren't lost, I wouldn't get to see you pout. That'd be tragic."Niko answered, his voice very amused. "Um, but, we can. . .We're. . .Kind of in a forest. Surrounded by trees. And dirt. Not exactly the most amusing place in the world, to be honest. Maybe we can build sand castles. . .Or, with dirt, I guess. Or. . .I don't know exactly."

Cyrus couldn't help it, he laughed, "Building dirty castles, that would be interesting now wouldn't? But I don't think they will stay as a castle for long." He scratched his chin and walked around for a moment, "I could limp a tree but that's a bit to much work to do..."
So instead the teenager combed the ground with his eyes and foot, tapping at the tall grass and moving things to the side. Maybe a sign had fallen down from a storm or something? It was a thought but he wasn't overly sure on that. "Maybe there was a sign but it fell over?" Cyrus voiced his thoughts now and bend down, and looked in a bush
"This is silly...well...maybe we should just go north, they say moss always grows on the North side of the trees." He mused, pouting a bit still. Although, he blushed a bit at Nikolai saying how tragic it would be for him not see the boy pout.
He cleared his throat at that comment.

"Yeah, okay. I agree."Niko was surprised, if anything, because he really didn't feel like arguing. . .At all. It was new and sort of strange to him. He was used to arguing with people, used to being confrontational, or just not talking. Either way he didn't care too much.
"A bit silly, I guess."Niko nodded. Maybe he should argue just for the sake of being able to say he was arguing, right? He wanted to. He wasn't going to if there was no reason, of course.
"North, that really is a go-. . .Let's just go north." Bah, he almost agreed again which wasn't what he had intended. It was kind of weird. No, no, really weird. Ah, he figured he'd just keep quiet- at least for a moment. Besides, Cyrus didn't seem particularly amused by his comment that it'd be tragic. He shouldn't have said it, and definitely regretted it now to an extent.

Cyrus through his hands up in the air at not finding anything, "Alright, then lets go north, it will get us somewhere at least." He said with a chuckle and then looked confused, "Now which way is north?" He asked Nikolai as he walked up to him.
For being a smart lad he was rather dumb when it came to directions sometimes and right now it was rather clear that he didn't know where North was..
He looked back at Nikolai again, "You alright?" He asked, thinking Nik didn't look so thrilled for a moment but then shrugged.

"I think that, of all the times for not knowing directions, night isn't one of them. Are the stars out? Can we see them?"Niko wasn't sure why he was asking because as he asked, he was already looking up toward the sky. Unfortunately the trees weren't exactly wonderful in this task. Huh. Ah-oh. Though unwilling to climb a tree he did seem to be considering it as he moved toward a nearby one, examining it as though he had to make sure it would be realistic to climb it. Yeah, he could do it, he could climb the tree. . . Niko shook his head, turning back to Cyrus.
"I remember that saying thing, that 'never eat soggy waffles thing? Or never eat sour warheads? But I can't say I really understood it like that. You know? I can't say I could tell, just because I could say north south east and west with different words." It was odd to him. What was the point? Yeah, okay, it said north came, then east, south, west. It didn't tell you much else. It took just knowing it to realize it went in clockwise direction on a compass rose. He also knew it could change directions.
"I personally like the forest, anyway. Maybe we can just chill here. Can't hurt, at least. Besides, I don't really want to meet my roommates that badly, to be honest. . . What if I get paired with some girl?"Niko slightly winced at the thought. He didn't want to room with a girl! Surely they were just kidding, it was just kids screwing with him when they told him girls and boys could be paired. . . At least he prayed it would have been, could have been.
