Jamie was up early cooking breakfast when he heard the delivery company
come over to drop off the new zoid.
He looked at the new Stormsworder sitting in the hangar. He turned his attention back to cooking when someone walked into the kitchen and sat down.
"Morning," she said.
Jamie nearly dropped the egg-lift when he heard it was Alana.
Just relax, be normal around her, he kept telling himself.
"Morning. Sleep well?"
She smiled thankfully and nodded. "Haven't had such a good sleep for ages. Probably because I have never felt so safe before. I usually always have to be alert."
Brad walked into the room, but the two didn't notice him, so he backed away a little and began to listen at the small conversation. He was beginning to think that he should play matchmaker, but for that he had to at least be paid.
"So tell me more about you, you're the only person my age on this base," Alana said in a rush, and then she blushed.
Brad, seeing this, smiled at himself knowingly and went back to listening.
Jamie nearly dropped the egg-lift again when he heard this.
"You're my age? Cool. Well, ah, it's difficult if you don't have someone your own age around. Bit, Brad and Leena are all the same age so they don't really have to feel awkward. Well, yeah back to answering your question. I'm Jamie, and I pilot either Raynos or Pteras. I usually work out battle strategies, but they never listen to them. My parents are both dead, so I just stayed with Doc and the team since I was small. Bit is like a big brother, but Brad does a better job at being one, and Leena is almost like a sister. But it still gets pretty lonely being the only sixteen year old."
"Well, you won't be so lonely anymore, since we're both the same age, but I get where you're coming from."
Jamie blushed, and Brad once again smiled knowingly, and then went back to listening.
Jamie looked at the clock, and then quickly set the table and left the food on the table.
"Watch this," he said to her. "In ten seconds Leena will come running through the base on a rampage, with Bit trying to hide because he ate her cookies last night, then five minutes later they'll come and eat with the rest of us."
When ten seconds passed, Alana heard a shout, and then saw Leena running after Bit yelling about cookies.
"Wow, are they like this every morning?" Alana asked.
Jamie just nodded.
Alana sank into the seat beside Jamie, and then when five minutes passed, Leena and Bit came in and sat at the table as if nothing had happened.
Meanwhile Brad, who had been up for some time listening to the two was just about kill the other two as they ran passed, walked into the kitchen and made some coffee for himself.
"Good morning," Jamie said as they all sat in their seats and began to eat.
Everyone nodded, but didn't stop eating; Alana and Jamie sweat dropped, and silently continued to eat.
~~~~*~~~~
Alana sat in the hangar with her zoid, and began to add her touches while the others began to work on their own zoids.
Brad watched the two again as Jamie helped her with the new zoid. They were talking quietly among themselves and for once, he thought he heard Alana laugh, which he had never heard before. It was then that Leena began to notice Alana and Jamie.
~~~~*~~~~
The day was coming to an end when Jamie and Alana stopped working on her Stormsworder, which she had decided to call Midnight, because he was black.
Jamie and Alana were walking along to the kitchen where they heard Bit shouting Food over and over again, and Leena joined in.
Jamie laughed as Doc started with them, aggravating Brad even more, which made him leave the kitchen, and the food.
Jamie looked over to Alana who had now become used to the behavior of them, and saw an evil grin on her face.
Reaching up, Jamie wiped away some grease that was on her cheek. She was startled, for she wasn't expecting the gentle touch of Jamie's hand.
She looked up blushing, and saw that he was blushing too.
He smiled nervously and said, "there was grease on your cheek," and he took his hand away.
"Thank you," she said.
"Anyway, we should get changed before dinner, so, I'm gonna go get changed," he smiled and his eyes sparkled as he walked away rather nervously.
Smiling at his retreating back, she turned toward her room, and went for a shower, and then quickly she got changed.
"What's on the menu tonight?" Jamie said as he walked into the kitchen.
"We're going out since Brad destroyed what was left of our groceries," replied Bit.
Just as Doc was about to go and see if Alana wanted to come, she walked in.
"Going out tonight?" she asked.
Jamie nodded his head.
The team all went to their zoids and flew/ran to the restaurant on the edge of the closest town.
Landing, Jamie hopped out of his zoid, and then gave Alana a hand out of hers.
Doc walked in first and asked for a table.
Doc led them to the table where they would be eating. Leena sat down, then Brad, and then Bit. Jamie, like his usual self, pulled out the chair for Alana to sit on, and smiled when the only seat left was across from where she sat.
After ordering their food, all the team members began to talk.
"Jamie made some new battle strategies last night, so we should be able to use them against the other team in next weeks battle. Jamie of course will be flying in his Raynos, but I'm not sure whether I should put Alana into battle yet. Alana, what do you think?" asked Doc.
There was no reply. He looked over to where she sat, and saw her and Jamie in deep conversation about something he wasn't going to bother trying to understand. Bit, Brad, and Leena followed his gaze, and began to listen to the conversation.
Both Alana and Jamie stopped talking when they felt the eyes of the Blitz team upon them. They both blushed, and looked at their drinks as if they were all of a sudden interesting.
Brad just once again smiled knowingly, and took a sip of his Coke. He noticed that Leena and Bit all of a sudden, started a conversation about their drinks, because they were pretending not to listen.
Once they had finished eating and paid, the Blitz Team left the small restaurant, and headed home.
Brad didn't go to bed when they got back to the base and neither did Jamie.
Brad was sitting in the lounge sipping his coffee when he heard Jamie slump down on the couch beside him. Jamie was lying full length on the couch, not sure whether to ask Brad for advice.
"You want advice?" he asked.
Jamie paused at the question and simply nodded.
"You two look cute as a couple," he said, laughing at the sudden look of disbelief on Jamie's face. "Why are you so surprised? We've been watching you guys for the past couple of weeks, and you look like you are getting along, really well."
"So what should I do?" asked Jamie.
"I don't know, do what your heart and mind tell you. That's how I got Naomi. Every guy has their own way of getting a girl, for example Bit steals Leena's cookies so she will notice him," replied Brad, sipping on his coffee.
"I suppose," said Jamie. "Thanks anyway."
Jamie got up and walked into the computer room where he busied himself with re-working battle strategies and playing games.
