Rommie wrung her hair to get most of the water out of it. She stepped out
of the shower, she reached for a towel wrapping it around her. Taking a
second smaller towel, Rommie went through her hair again. After drying
herself she moved into her living room, towards the table where her outfit
hung.
Before she could reach for her red garment her hologram appeared again. "You know. He is on his way here.". Rommie waited a second, whilst showering she hadn't been watching her crew, or anything else for that matter. After acquiring the data from her mainframe she responded hesitantly "It's probably just a coincidence, how should he know I was here? He didn't ask me - you". "Where would he be heading for then?", Rommie didn't answer, she knew 'she' was right. She thought about changing into her clothes, but instead she went back to the bathroom.
Sure enough, soon Dylan stood in front of Rommie's quarters. A moments thought made coming here seem like a really bad idea. But still he pressed the chime button. The door slid open and Dylan stepped inside.
"Dylan, I just need a second.", Rommie came out of the bathroom, the towel still the only thing covering her. Dylan was incapable of doing anything else but stare, after a long moment he stuttered "S-Sorry Rommie. I, I didn't mean to interrupt - I'll come back later" "No! No Dylan, it's alright, I'll be changed in no time.". Rommie noticed that Dylan had gotten back in his black High Guard uniform, "Back to uniforms?". Rommie wanted to get Dylan talking as his gaze was fixed on the floor and he didn't say a word. "Well, I needed a reminder of who I really am.". Rommie went through her wardrobe, shifting different uniforms and outfits aside until she finally came across the one she was looking for. Lifting her female counterpart of Dylan's uniform up for him to see, "How about that?". Dylan only gave a quick glance in her direction, "Perfect".
Rommie slipped back to the bathroom to dress, she quickly changed into her uniform and hurried back out, not wanting to have Dylan wait any longer. "I forgot something.", Dylan gave her a questioning look. She shook her head and her hair morphed to a raven colour, and fell into place just as did two years ago. "So Dylan, what did you want to talk about?". Dylan was about to answer as they heard Beka's voice over the comm. "Dylan to command!". He shrugged and headed for the door as Andromeda's hologram appeared "Dylan, this is probably about the battle.".
Dylan started on his way to command. Rommie sighed silently as she set after him.
