Lance's ears pricked and his eyebrows raised slightly at her words - what kid was deprived of a playground at a fast food place - like McDonald's -and had sane parents? No one that he could think of, but then again, he didn't know many people. That could be a reason.
"What do you m-mean?" he stammered, looking at her face hesitantly. Lucky for him, though, was the fact that she was still looking out of the window, which eliminated the use of eye-to-eye contact. "Haven't you, er... Uh, I mean, you've never been on a playground before?"

Sapphire couldn't help but let out a laugh. "I have never been on a playground before. Except for at school and such when I was little. I actually don't remember ever coming to a fast food place actually."She thought about it for a moment. Racing threw her memories as if they were pictures in a book.
"Nope. I can't recall anything."She stated with a nod of her head. "But...No biggie."Grabbing her drink she took a sip of it before shoving some fries into her mouth enjoying the taste. She liked the fries better than the burger.

"Wait..." Lance was confused: how could someone never have been to a fast food place before, let alone forget their last time at a playground? Granted, he had not been to one since his father's death, but at least he was able to remember that. She... How? "How could you have never been to a fast food restaurant before? Are you saying, er... that this isyour, uh, first time?"
He had been doing so well.
It only occurred to him then that her first experience might be this, where the burgers tasted like crap and the fries salted cardboard. His heart bled for her - she needed a McDonald's.

Sapphire turned to face him as she held up the burger. "Mum is a big health nut. And my dad thought I should spend my free time studying instead of playing in 'ridiculous contraptions." She mused with a shrug. "Which is why I am so damn smart, don't know if this is supposed to taste like this, and never have I played in one of those."She pointed to the play ground with a shrug.
"Let's just say...I just never have a normal childhood which might be why I am one of the biggest drug dealers in this state with out getting caught."She mused with a shrug. "Or I just like the money."

Lance pushed his chair back a fraction of an inch, knowing that, in an instant, if she tried to sell anything to him he'd book it out of there, back to school, hamburger or no hamburger. "You s-sell drugs?" he stammered, inwardly cursing his stutter, now of all times.
"And studying will, er... get you places," he finally added, feeling more hypocritical than ever. He, of course, was not big on studying himself: he was getting a scholarship in sports, football specifically, he knew, so, really, what was the point of studying, anyway? He sucked at anything academic.

Sapphire laughed lightly nodding her head. "Yes...I do."She stated. "They come to me."She stated with a nod of her head and run her fingers through her hands through her hair. "At parties...All that jazz."
"And I do study...I don't do anything till my work is done. Which is why I have great grades."She told him leaning back with a small smile. She took a sip of her drink and leaned her head back. Looking around at all the people that were there once more before looking back at him once more. "It's not that bad."

Lance nodded slowly; he had a feeling she already told him that, he was just too daft to remember. He fingered through his crispy french fries, pulling out the limp ones and chewing them slowly, one by one. He licked the salt from his fingertips, then wiped the excess saliva on his jeans but, when she turned back to look at him, he lowered his hand to the table, allowing his fingers to grip the side of his pure-blue tray.
"Er... What's your favourite class?" he asked warily, looking up at her with a warned expression. He was trying to make conversation, yes, but he wasn't sure if she could tell.

Sapphire smiled slightly. Leaning back in her seat as she thought about it. "I like my math class."She told him with a nod of her head. "Or my science class...We do a lot of experiments that I tend to blow up but you know...I like blowing things up."She told him with a smile on her face.
"What about you?"She asked curiously as she took a fry and ate it slowly. Pulling her legs up under her and leaning against the table lightly resting her head on her free hand as she ate the not so good fries.
