3rd February
Luke teleported into Costa Verde, to say that he had done it on purpose wasn’t completely accurate, but it was more or less where he had planned on going. Why? Even he wasn’t sure, but he had never been to California before, so ended up going, even if his power had let him go before he planned.
He looked around, it wasn’t actually that different from many of the places that he had been to, and it was reasonable cold here. The sky was fairly cloudy, but it didn’t look like it was going to rain. At least Luke hoped it wouldn’t.

Rebekah was stomping around California as usual. She hadn't forgotten the day she'd fell into that freezing cold lake trying to help that poor swan and bumped into that English boy, Wes his name was. He was somewhat a bit pompous first impressions she thought, and they usually stuck, but he had agreed to go for a drink with her.
She hadn't seen him much after that, which had been a pity, because he might have turned out to be a really nice guy. Now she was just carelessly walking along the street, when she heard a noise behind her. Still freaked from the attacks she had last year, she immediately backed her way and got herself into a wall, which she of course half phased herself through, peering from it to see if he was still there.
"Hello?" she said tentatively, if it turned out to be any of the guys who had attacked her last year, she'd grab them and do exactly what she did to the very first one, and phase them half way into the wall.

Luke had heard something, immediately looking around, searching for the person who had made the noise. “Hello.” He said, trying to figure out where whoever was making the noise where. He teleported a few yards, and looked around again.
He didn’t really know why he was teleporting just about anywhere; it would take a lot of explaining if no-one managed to catch him.
He looked around again, staring round and trying to find the source of the noise. It was weird that he couldn’t see anyone, and since no-one was around, he felt that he could probably teleport, since there was little chance of anyone seeing him. He teleported another few yards, looking around. He froze. He couldn’t completely tell, but there seemed to be someone stuck in the wall.

As Rebekah kept herself phased half in and half out of the wall, she watched the person she saw carefully. When she'd said hello, they said hello back, well in Rebekah's eyes, you don't normally say hello back if you're about to attack someone. She smiled weakly assuming it might be alright to come out of her hiding spot in the wall.
Before she did, she saw the person disappear and reappear. Oh that is so cool she thought, he has some way of moving himself from one spot to another. Well if he had an ability then he was surely just like her, well not like her, but had an ability. Looked like time space continuum or teleportation.
After he stopped moving around Rebekah finally thought it was safe to come out, and so she stepped out of the wall. "Hi, that hello before, that was me, sorry I was just being careful, I've had problems in the past" she tried to explain, not that it would make any difference to him she was sure. But, oh well.

Luke smiled at Rebekah, as she phased back out of the wall. He laughed a for a second, he couldn’t really help but see a funny side of someone phasing into a wall, just in case something happened to go wrong. He teleported again, moving towards her, it wouldn’t make any difference anymore, she must have seen him teleport before. “You can phase.” He said, she was the second person that he had met with another ability recently.
He found her pretty, except he would probably find it difficult to really say anything, since he hadn’t exactly had time for girls before, considering that his dad had made them move a lot, so he hadn’t had any time to meet anyone else before, and so this could, or probably would end up badly for him, that was if he made a complete fool of himself.
“I’m Luke.” He said, he supposed that since she had seen him teleport he should probably explain himself. “I can teleport.”

Rebekah noticed the guy smiling at her when she phased out of the wall fully. Normally she wouldn't have used her power in full view like that, but since he'd been using his she didn't see the problem. Of course he then pointed out the obvious that she could phase. She smiled at him, and opened her arms out, "Yep, that's me, I can phase" she said carelessly.
Rebekah smiled again as he then told his name and told her he could teleport. Well she knew it had to be that or bending time. "Well, pleased to meet you Luke, I'm Rebekah" she said and then made a sweeping motion with her arm, "Nice ability you got there" she continued, turning herself round on the spot and jumping to another spot and spinning for a second before stopping and looking at him.
"Well that was my best idea of copying your ability" she tried explaining away her stupidness and then laughed. "Random appearing and disappearing, not unlike mine" she said, even if his was in a different way to hers.

“Nice to meet you too.” He said, after Rebekah said the same thing. He was just trying to be as polite as he could, so he smiled kindly.
Luke laughed slightly, as she made some sort of attempt to copy what he could do. In truth he probably found it funnier than he let on, but he wouldn’t laugh too much, and make himself look stupid. “I don’t think that I could copy what you do.” He said, that said he could teleport her if he felt like it. “I could teleport you though” He continued.
“Erm, do you want to go and get a coffee?” Luke asked, almost blurting it out, stuttering over the words. It was the only thing that he could think of to say really, and seemed like something that he could say anyway, so just went with it.

When Luke said it was nice to meet her too, Rebekah just smiled back at him. Well so far, so good, they were at least being civil to each other, and that was always a good sign when you bumped into the opposite member of the sex. Especially since most of her past experiences with guys had got her into some trouble.
She noticed Luke's slight laugh as she tried to copy his power, she knew she hadn't done a very good job of it, yet at the same time, she didn't really care. In fact she knew it was a bad attempt and she just laughed along with him, probably more than he was laughing at her. "Yeah, my ability isn't so easy to try and copy, however, I could phase you through a wall with me" she said with a grin, "Just like you could teleport me, maybe we ought to try our abilities out on each other" Rebekah found herself saying with a bigger smile.
The next thing she knew Luke had asked if she wanted to go for a coffee. Wow, that was good. She thought she might have to really pull out all the stops to have him go for a drink with her, after the last time. That boy had treated her like she was dirt on his shoe almost.
"Sure, I'd love to go for some coffee" Rebekah replied giving him a really nice smile which lit up her whole face. "Anywhere in mind?" she asked him, as the only place she knew of herself was Starbucks of course. But he might know somewhere different. She thought she might have had a better time in New York, but she realised after a while she missed her Californian home. Even if it was filled with bad memories of the attack. It was just fortunate, that nothing had happened to her since.

Luke smiled, when Rebekah asked him if he had anywhere in mind to take her for coffee. “I could take you anywhere.” He said a genuine kindness in his voice. “Rome, Paris, Venice, just wherever you want.” It was true as well, he had more or less an entire world he could visit anytime he wanted, it was one of the best parts about his ability.
“So, where do you want to go?” Luke asked, checking his pocket to see if he had any money in it. He did, and that was good. He would have felt stupid, even if it just meant he left for a few seconds, if he had to go and get money later. He looked at Rebekah, waiting to see what she had to say.

Well that was something thought Rebekah. He could take her anywhere. She had meant somewhere in California, and yet here he was mentioning places in totally different countries. Now Phasing was pretty cool, but even Rebekah couldn't phase herself to Rome or Paris. Decisions, decisions she thought.
"You're giving a girl such difficult choices" she said grinning, "So while I make up my mind" she began, as she wrapped her arms around his waist, "Tell me how this feels" she said, as she backed up to the wall with him, and phased through it with him.
She removed her arms from around his waist, because she didn't want to be completely forward, she'd only done that so she could pull him through the wall with her.
Thinking some more of where they could go she thought of a place, just as he asked again where she would want to go. "How about Paris then, if you can take me anywhere?" she asked, fluttering her eyelashes slightly. After all wasn't Paris the city of love? "Oh, if you need me to phase you back through the wall first, let me know" she added and winked at him slightly, still smiling at him brightly, so much her eyes were sparkling.

Luke looked at Rebekah, as he waited for her decision. The she phased him through a wall. It felt cool, and weird. Luke felt sure that he should have crashed into the wall, but instead he was simply moving right through it. The feeling kept in him for a few seconds, as he stood on the other side of the wall. “Wow.” He said, momentarily stuck for words to describe it. “That was like, well amazing.”
He waited while she told him where she wanted to go to. Paris. That would prove easy, after all Paris had several places he could go to, though first he would have to go to the easiest place in Paris to teleport to, the Eiffel Tower. After all when he didn’t know where to go exactly his ability tended to make him go to the right area, maybe just not the place he wanted to get to.
Rebekah seemed very happy, and Luke smiled warmly when she offered to phase him again. “Well I don’t need to.” He said, “But it would be fun I suppose.” He offered out his hand for her to take. He would teleport after they went back through the wall, after all he liked phasing.

Rebekah was glad Luke liked the feeling of phasing, she certainly did. The only part of her phasing she didn't like, was disappearing into the ground, so she only did that when she felt it was really, really necessary and that wasn't very often. She laughed as he said wow. "I'm glad you like the feeling, I do too, trust me when I say it's good if you need to quickly hide or get away from somebody" Rebekah said as she shuddered slightly, remembering all those times she had been attacked.
In truth Rebekah hadn't had much of a good life what with being attacked, having no family and anybody she had met giving up on her before too long. The only person she knew she could still rely on was Henry. He was like her best friend. But he really was the only person she had in her life now, other than Snowball her cat.
He hadn't said yes or no to going to Paris, so she just figured it was a yes, and she smiled back at him as he smiled at her. He then held his hand out, so she could phase him back through the wall, even though he had said she didn't have to.
"I had a feeling you'd have wanted to phase again even if you didn't have to, it is a great feeling" Rebekah said as she took his hand, and phased them both back through the wall to the side where they had started off.
"I thought today was just going to be another one of those boring days for me, but I think it might turn out to be a good one after all" Rebekah said with a smile as she looked at Luke and waited for him to teleport them to Paris. It would be such fun and it seemed to Rebekah like she had actually found a guy who was not only talking to her, but seemed loveable and friendly. What more could she ask for than that?

Luke was still smiling as the two phased through the wall again. It was a nice feeling to have, and was still really quite cool as well. After they where finished, and through to the other side of the wall, he was ready to teleport. “Hold on.” He said. This was because he had never actually teleported someone else like this before, more that he had teleported others without touching them. And the last time had been with that guy who had been falling to his death, so he wasn’t likely to have noticed anything weird about teleporting.
He concentrated, teleporting to Paris, realising something actually quite funny. Despite it being five in the afternoon in California, it was still only about eight in the morning here. He looked at Rebekah, laughing a little. “Looks like we’re a little bit early.” He said, “You want to walk about for a bit?” It was a slight disappointment that no-where would be open yet, but it meant that he would get to spend more time to Rebekah first, so it wasn’t that bad really.

Once they were through to the other side of the wall and Luke told Rebekah to hold on, she sort of laughed, as if she was going to do anything but hold on. "Of course" she said and grinned, as she held on to him tightly as he closed his eyes and teleported them to Paris. Of course Rebekah hadn't thought about the time difference either, so they had arrived early. It didn't bother Rebekah much though, at least it would give them to know each other more.
"Yeah just a little early, never mind though" Rebekah said grinning at him, and swinging her arms, and looking around, finding it breathtaking that one moment they were in California and now they were in Paris.
Of course when Luke asked if she wanted to talk for a bit, Rebekah smiled. "Sure, why not" she wasn't sure whether to take his hand or not though. After all they had only really sort of met, but at the same time, she felt there was something there. Some sort of chemistry.
"So, tell me more about yourself, if you don't mind?" Rebekah found herself asking, as she walked along with him, swinging her arms behind her and then out in front of her, sometimes lifting one arm up to play with her hair. It was what she did, when she wasn't sure what to do with her hands.

Luke smiled when Rebekah asked him about himself. Although he didn’t exactly have some sort of magical tale about having a brilliant life to tell he would like to talk about it. “My dad moved around a lot when I was younger.” He began, “And when I was sixteen my parents kicked me out.” He paused here, trying to figure out how to explain what he wanted to say next.
“After I just had to survive on my own. I got myself a flat and a job, and really have just been working from there.” He deliberately left out the bit about him having to break into stores at night to get food, after all what would she think if she knew he was a thief.
He noticed that she seemed to be playing about with her hair a lot, and took hold of one of her hands, smiling. It seemed to be the sort of thing that he felt would be appropriate, since he could sense a sort of chemistry or something.
