"You've probably got more things to worry about then us, dude."
Patrick snickered before saying, "I don't know if that should comfort or worry me." He turned his face to look at the approaching woman and he immediately smirked in embarrassment as he saw the woman walking over with her arms pointedly crossed over her chest. "Oh boy..." mumbled Patrick with a smirk still plastered on his face as Jennifer closed the distance.
"I'm Jennifer, and that's Asshole."
Patrick's smirk turned into a genuine grin as he watched the woman offer her hand. The feeling of joy and relief when he was first held at 'gunpoint' by two of the three red-headed girls who appeared to be triplets returned to him. He graciously shook Jennifer's hand with his, still soaking hand. "Sorry, I haven't had a chance to dry off yet." Patrick blushed in embarrassment as he quickly ran he fingers through his wet hair, the tell-tale sign that he was at least a little nervous. "I'm Patrick Ausman, and uh, it's a pleasure to meet you...really. Glad I didn't scare you off with that uh, performance..." Patrick's eyes quickly shot over to where the nearest triplet was as he finished the statement before quickly returning to meet Jennifer's gaze. He was fairly certain the three had no intentions of introducing themselves to him anytime soon and Patrick certainly wasn't brave enough to make the attempt either.
"And uh..." Patrick looked down to the floor, not hiding his bashfulness in any way. "If you need anything please let me know. I'm really greatly for y'all's hospitality in a place like this. So um, if there is anyway I can repay you for it, please let me."
