The loss of Katalin's closeness was jarring and left him feeling colder then even her cool touch, but it also helped to clear his mind a little. He had come here in the hopes of...actually, he wasn't sure why he had come here, the only thing he was sure of was that Deanna would have hated it. Coming here had been an act of rebellion, of revenge, beyond that, he was clueless. Katalin's tone of voice however had him rubbing his hands over his face and forehead, as if he were trying to rub some sense into his skull as he groaned in frustration and anger at himself. He was lucky she was even still sitting with him, he wasn't sure he would have been so magnanimous if their roles had been reversed.
As the vampire turned her attention from her nails and deigned to look at him once more, albeit with a pout worthy of making angels weep in despair at seeing it, he gave a half smile in apology and in appreciation of the vision she presented.
"I'm sorry, I am being a cad, and I'm a mess, I know." He shook his head slightly and sighed. Could he have made any bigger fool of himself? Could he make his life any fucking worse? "The truth is, I don't know what I'm looking for, or what I am even doing here really, but..." He flicked his eyes over katalin and looked at her, really looked at her before meeting her gaze with his own. "I'm glad you invited me to sit with you, even though I think you're seriously regretting the offer now." He raised his arm and held his hand out towards Katalin in an offer for a handshake. "If you're still interested, maybe we can start again....My name's Zack, and even though I'm feeling a little lost right now, it's a real pleasure to meet you."
A part of him told him to stop, just let the woman go and then leave...but he squished it and waited to see how the vampire would respond. He hadn't made the best first impression he knew but she hadn't left yet either so maybe there was still a chance he could turn this night around.
