A month later was Holly's day off. "I would have thought that I would get a day or two off." Holly said to Artemis. "You're welcome." Artemis responded. "Soooo you doing anything later?" Holly asked. "Nothing actually." Artemis said. They went to the resturaunt they went to earlier. The waiter said, "Same thing as the last time?" "Yes the same thing." Artemis said. Holly got a salad and crab and Artemis got a lobster. "So Holly, how are things in the Haven… other then… well you know." Artemis asked. "Pretty good." Holly answered. "You do anything new Artemis?" Holly asked, trying to keep the chat alive. "I found evidence of the tachyon." Artemis said, taking a small bite of the lobster. (The only bit he could get, can't work the shell breakers.) "So I heard that a goblin is going to be interrogated." Artemis said. "Yep." Holly responded

They ate the rest of their dinner in silence. They left and Artemis asked, "Holly want to go to the beach?" "No not really." "OK."

"They went to the park and tried to find a bench with no bird crap on it. They finally found one. "So, want some ice cream?" Artemis asked. "Sure." Holly answered. Artemis got a vanilla and Holly got mint. "Why mint?" "Feel like it." They ate their ice cream. Artemis felt mischievous and put his ice cream on Holly's head. She chased and made him fall into mud. They both found away to get themselves cleaned. They watched the sun set. "I gotta go Artemis. Later." Holly kissed Artemis on the cheek. They both blushed.

Author Note: This chapter may have little to nothing to do with the plot, but I thought I'd go back to working on Artemis and Holly's friendship.
