Shal was in her room, lying on her bed, looking up at the ceiling. She looked over at her clock. It was only 6:00 pm. Today was a slow day. It was raining out so she couldn't go for a walk in the forest outside. When she had went into the rec room to watch TV, she flipped through all the channels and found nothing that held her interest. So there she was, on her bed, being bored. She looked at the clock again. Only two minutes had gone by. Suddenly she sensed someone coming towards her room. Brennan she thought. Sure enough there was a knock on her door and when she called them in, it was Brennan.
"Hey," he said softly as he walked towards her. "You're quiet today"
"I'm bored," she replied, still looking at the ceiling.
Brennan came over and sat on the end of her bed. "Want to spar for a while? I know beating me would put you in a better mood. A happier, more energetic mood." He grinned.
She sat up and crossed her legs and looked at Brennan. He was still grinning and it made her want to grin herself. She cracked a smile and said, "You're right. It would make me happy but I'm not in the mood for sparring right now. Sorry Brennan."
He sat there looking at her for a moment before replying, "Wow, Shalimar Fox is turning down a chance to beat me, again. Something must really be wrong." He raised his eyebrow.
"I don't know what it is. I'm just not in the mood for anything yet I'm complaining I'm bored. I get it either," Shal said.
"Hmmm...." Brennan tapped his finger against his lip as he thought for a moment. "What if I took you to a club for a while. You know you like dancing. Are you in the mood for that?"
Shalimar smiled and replied, "Well, I can tell you this much. You do know my weaknesses." She looked over at Brennan who had a big grin on his face. "Going to the club sounds like a great idea to me." She looked over at her clock, which now read 6:20. She turned and looked at Brennan again. "When do you want to leave?"
"Well, knowing you, you take at least a half-an-hour to get ready so...how about 7:00?"
"I do not take that long to get ready, Brennan Mulwray!" She smacked him playfully on the arm, but not lightly. He would pay for that comment.
Brennan rubbed his arm in the place that she had hit it. "Ow!"
"Oh come on. I didn't hit you that hard!" She grinned and said, "then again, you're a big baby." She jumped off her bed before Brennan had time to react to that comment.
"Hey! I am not!" He replied getting up off her bed, going after her. He grabbed her around her waist and put her over his shoulder. He took her over to her bed and let her fall onto it. He then fell next to her. She was lying there laughing. At least he had put her in a better mood than she was in before. Her laugher finally died down and he got up and walked to the door. "7:00. No later!"
Shal got into a sitting position and looked at him. "I know, I know. Don't worry. I'll be ready!" She got up off her bed and headed towards the bathroom as Brennan left her room, shutting the down behind him. Okay. Quick shower and then closet to find clothes. Sexy clothes that will attract attention. Especially from Brennan, although he probably doesn't even like you that way.
With that, she jumped into the shower for 10 minutes. When she was all dried off, she made her way over to her closet and started to dig through it. Skirt? Nah, not tonight. Hmmm... She was on her last drawer and was going to give into the skirt idea when she spotted her low cut jeans. Yes She moved onto her shirts. She was flipping through her shirts when she found the perfect one. Red? Perfect color. Brennan likes red on you. Good choice After she had her clothes on, she went back into her bathroom and started to put on make-up. She soon finished that and looked at her hair. Up or down? She pulled it up for a moment before deciding to let it down and pull some of it back. She finished and looked at her finished appearance. Satisfied Shal grabbed her purse and then decided against it. She grabbed some cash and shoved it into her pocket. Don't want to have to worry about a purse She finally left her room and found Brennan sitting on the stairs waiting for her. He was wearing a tight black muscle shirt and jeans. Hot she thought.
Brennan looked up as soon as he heard her approach. He smiled. "Wow! You look great tonight! Especially in red he though to himself.
"Thank you. You look great yourself." She smiled.
Brennan looked down at his watch. "6:55. You're getting better." He grinned.
"I was never bad in the first place. I don't take a half-an-hour to get ready, thank-you-very-much." She flashed him a quick smile. "So, are we going or what?"
"Yeah, of course. Oh, wait just a second. Let's go find Jess and Lexa and tell them where we're going."
They started down the hall and found Jesse in the lab working on something. He looked up when he heard the door open. "Hey. You guys looked dressed up. Going out?"
"Yup. I'm taking Shal clubbing. She wasn't in a very happy mood earlier and I had to fix that," Brennan replied. "We're going to The Dragons Domain. Wanna come?"
The Dragons Domain was a new club that the four of them started to go to. It was the hottest club around town now. They had only been there a couple times but they liked it. It was better than the old club they used to go too. That one was closed now. This new club was more expensive so that meant that there was more security around. It didn't bother the four of them though.
"Nah. I'm kinda busy doing this. Maybe Lexa will want to go," he said as he went back to work.
Brennan and Shalimar left and went to look for Lexa. They found her in front of the TV in the rec room. She was sitting there watching a movie. She paused it and looked at them. "Hey, where are you two off to?"
"The club. Would you like to come?" Shal asked her.
"Sorry, but I'm watching The Matrix," she said with a smile. "Keanu Reeves is my favorite actor and besides, this is a good movie. You two can go. Why don't you ask Jesse if he wants to go?"
"We already did. He's busy. Oh well," Brennan said as he turned towards Shal and said, "I guess it's only us tonight." They left and Lexa continued to watch her movie.
Walking to the car, Shal said, "I'm glad that it's only us going. We never spend time alone."
"Yeah, that's true. We're almost always together, the four of us that is," he replied, agreeing with her. "But tonight we're going to have just as much fun," he said with a grin.
"Absolutely!" Shal said with a big smile.
With that, they were in the car and were off to the club.
