Mike looked down
at the map he was holding, trying to work out where he was.
"You
lost?"
Mike turned around and was greeted with green
eyes.
"Kinda. Yeah," Mike nodded.
The girl toop the
map from Mike.
"Where are you headed to?" she
asked.
Mike pulled another bit of paper from his pocket.
"Borders,
civic centre," Mike read.
The girl grinned and gestured for
Mike to follow.
"I'm Mike," Mike intoduced
himself.
"Name's Kate," she replied shacking Mike's
hand.
Mike couldn't help but look her outfit over. It started with
a dark blue tee shirt that had things sewn all over it, next came a
pair of light grey camo pants with straps giong every which way, a
pair of blue shoes with one black lace and one pink, head phones
around her neck and to end it all a yin and yang headband over her
forehead kept her blonde hair from her eyes.
"Interesting,"
Mike commented.
"Yeah, you're kinda boring," Kate
laughed.
Mike had blue jeans and a white button up top. The two
sat in silence until their bus came.
Mike woke up to a banging
on his cabin. Mike stood and opened the door.
"Sir we've lost
all power," Nav told Mike.
"Get ET to see Charge in the
engine room and tell him to get us power now," Mike told
Nav.
Nav nodded and took off. On his way up to the bridge Mike ran
straight into Kate as he turned a corner.
"Wasn't for the
storm, it'd be a clear night," Kate smiled.
"Change of
clothes but not personality," Mike smiled back.
Kate gently
pushed Mike as they staggered down the hall to the bridge.
Kate
sat up on the deck after the storm had passed.
"I told you
it'd be a clear night," Kate said as Mike sat down.
"I'll
make you dinner when wer get back then," Mike offered.
"Thanks,"
Kate said.
Kate and Mike sat their hands linked
together.
"Remember our first meeting?" Kate
asked.
"Couldn't forget it," Mike laughed.
Mike
pulled Kate onto his lap where her head rested on his shoulder as
Mike wound his arms around Kate.
