Does Helen speak to the men?

    by: julesss
Justin heard Spider let out a low whistle just as he was glancing up to see a beautiful woman standing just an arms reach away from him. She had short hair that wisped about her face and the chestnut color made her facial features and golden eyes stand out in a way that could only be described as striking. She smiled and he was sure he could feel his heart melt and drip on his new boots.

She spoke in a raspy but tender voice and pointed to the ground. "I dropped my pencil by your feet."

Spider bent down and picked up the writing utensil before Justin had a chance to come to his senses. "Here you go gorgeous." He smiled a goofy, full-faced grin and Justin rolled his eyes, "I'm Justin," he said "and you are?" She took the pencil from Spider and smiled. "My name is Helen, it's nice to meet you." They looked at each other and for some reason Justin felt an instant connection, a spark that he had never felt with Betty or any other woman. Spider broke the moment of ideal silence, "Yo, Helen, the name's Spider, but you can call me whatever you want." Justin could not believe that people actually said things like that in real life and burst out into laughter. His new, not so refined, airplane pal was one of the cheesiest people he'd ever met. Helen shook Spider's hand, thanked him for giving her the pencil and sat in her seat.

As she leaned back and stared at the No smoking and Stewardess buttons above her trying to get her heart beat back to normal she thought about Justin. The spark she had felt between them had been extremely apparent but involuntary. She looked over only to see him trying to glance nonchalantly at her. Definitely a spark.

You have the following choices:

1. Does she leave it alone and let him chase her?

2. Does she start up a conversation again?
