It's You

Chapter 04: Dellix Torrakas

"Hey!"

Dellix glanced up and there was Ally, still smiling but she looked worried. He saw her hands, they looked like she had been chewing on her nails.

"Oh! Hey it's you" Dellix smiled standing up. "Still waiting I see . . . Any news?" he asked gently, giving his head a slight tilt.

Ally smiled, "No, but . . . they promised, right? They'll get here soon." She sound worried too. Dellix heart started to ache for the kid, so he tried to keep a positive attitude for her.

"I'm sure they will" He smiled and then a thought came up.

"I'll drop by later to check in on you . . . If that's ok . . ." Dellix said, and then was mentally smacking himself as he realized how much of creeper he must have sounded like. If he did, Ally didn't take any notice of it, only giving the Turian a smile, a bright one that his chest burst with excitement.

"Okay".

Ally was elated!

She knew he was being nice; that it didn't really mean anything, he just was worried about her being alone, but to Ally, it felt like a date. Dellix had offered to get her something to eat that was nearby, since she was probably tired of eating the same stuff they handed out in the kitchens, and exchanging their contact information before heading off. She was kind of sad though, because all she had was these old casuals and some other casuals that she wore while washing the other pair.

Then again, Dellix would be coming by straight after work, so it was alright, she guessed.

Checking her omi-tool, Ally decided to spend the next few hours checking the docks. She saw in the corner that she didn't have any new mail ether. It hurt, all this waiting and she had hoped her parents would of messaged her by now, at least to tell her they were ok. She kept checking though, every morning, afternoon and night.

Ally put it away and started off towards some of the docks.

Later on, Dellix was at his work station, he was getting everything ready for the next guy's shift and for Ally to show up. He was tired but excited to meet up with Ally. His thoughts drifted back to last time, she was a pretty girl, and Dellix had found out that she was indeed young. Only seventeen. Humans were odd though, setting different ages for 'age of consent' in different areas, at least from what he read. Though, he was already getting a few rude looks from older asari, humans and Turians.

Forget them.

He was merely being nice to a young girl in need.

"Hey there!"

Dellix look and smiled as Ally came jogging up. "Hey! Just finishing up my shift" he said as a green skinned Salarian showed up. He waved goodbye to his co-worker and then they were off to go eat, Dellix decided to talk while they walked. He didn't have his own car unfortunately.

"So . . . um, how are things? Any news yet?"

Ally shook her head. "No, but it's only been a few days. I mean . . . They probably have a lot of traffic to deal with, what with everyone that's coming in."

Dellix nodded and moved the subject onto something else.

"So, where are you from?"

"Earth."

Dellix did everything in his power to keep a straight face. The news from earth wasn't good, the reapers were pissed and most of their aggressive attacks were hitting earth.

"O-oh? Did you live one of big cities?" He asked.

Ally smiled and shook her head again. "Nope!" she had a mischievous grin and it made Dellix smile right back to her. "Well, we did live near a city but wasn't huge. We lived between Dallas and Plano, TX and my Dad was from Calforina and my Mom from Florida. They had stay at home jobs so we sort of live on the edge of town. We even had a little bit land too!"

She sounded very proud and Dellix grinned. "So are you one those . . . horsegirls?" he asked and Ally started to laugh.

"What?"

"It's cowgirl" she giggled.

"Then why do you ride horses?"

"So we can herd the cows. Mmm but no I'm not a cowgirl. Though I had friends who had horses, they're really nice and fun to ride." She giggled and held her hands up like she was holding reins and clicking her tongue.

Dellix nodded, thanking the spirits for his dark skin and that it didn't show his blue blushing cheeks. They turn the corner and arrived at the place. A small food place that you sat at the stool and watched the cooks, cook, it had an Asian feel to it and Ally let out a big smile, which made Dellix smile.

"Oh! I was checking this place out the other day" she said, grabbing the Turian's hand and dragged him towards the front. They sat down at the stools and read through the menus. Dellix ordered his quickly then glanced over at a worried looking Ally. She blushed and looked up at him.

"I didn't realize this place was a little pricey . . ."

A sudden feel of male pride rose in the Turian's chest. "Don't worry, I got this" he smiled, making the young girl blush.

"A-Are you sure?" she chewed worryingly on her lower lip.

Dellix only stared.

"Doesn't that hurt?!"

"What?"

"Biting your lower jaw like that . . ."

Ally looked down at herself and giggled. "No, it's only skin and muscle stuff" she chuckled.

Dellix was tempted to ask more but shook his head, deciding to ask something more civil as they ordered their meals. Though the poor C-Sec officer's mind drew a blank, but Ally was quicker.

"Where are you from Dellix?"

"Me? Oh, well I was born on Palaven" Dellix admitted, dragging his talon's along the back of his neck. "but my parents moved here to the Citadel when I was about three or four. So I don't remember much of it then. I visit family there every so often, but I grew up here and went to school and soon joined C-Sec like my father and brother."

"You have a brother?" Ally's eyes grew with curiosity.

Dellix nodded.

"He's more . . . adventurous" Dellix said with a bit of annoyed sarcasm. "He's the Turian that's always busting down the door and yelling hands up!"

Alicia grinned as she watched Dellix's hands move as he talked. She watched everything really. His face was very interesting, how his eyes lit up and closed. How his mouth and mandibles moved and his fridge was rather intriguing. Had she been younger she would have reached up and touched them without a thought. Always she was a curious child. Her mother said it got her more trouble than not and usually ended up with mom or dad and whole lot of band-aids.

Their thoughts were broken when the food came out. A rather asian looking dish of chicken and noodles for Ally and what looked like purple pork roast for Dellix.

They both stared at each other's food curiously and then laughed at how silly the other's food looked.

"I can't believe your food is purple." she laughed.

"I can't believe yours looks like worms!" he chuckled.

They ate their food, talking about each other's favorite dishes from home, and then learning what the other liked. Dellix was fascinated to learn that Ally loved arts, painting, drawing, and even crafting things. She was an odd and weird, liking other 'fantasy' storybooks and wanting to learn to use a gun, she had been bow hunting with her father and how she loved to sit for hours in her room reading.

While Ally smiled, liking that Dellix was a little bit of a home body. Loved to listen to music and read just like her but he didn't mind going out to a club every so often or even more often going to see a movie. He loved beat-filled music and was a bit of a whiz on the computer. That was why he was an IT support, though these days it felt like customer support, and his brother was running around being a cop.

When they're meal was done with, Dellix paid and like a true gentlemen and escorted Ally back to the docks. Though he really didn't like the idea of leaving her there, he didn't want to freak her out by offering to come back to his place.

"Well, I'll . . . er . . . check up on you tomorrow. If . . . you'd liked. I'll asked some friends in C-Sec make sure no one messes with you"

Ally nodded and smiled. "That'd be great, thanks Dellix . . . for everything" she said before quickly giving him a hug. The stunned turian was shocked and rather unsure of what to do. Dellix settle for patting her back and giving a small hug back. "No problem, Kiddo" he smiled.
