Dax Working Out In The Gym/Shower/In His Room with Flower and Anna(A GIANT?!)
Dax had long ago finished the dishes, leaving them to dry in the rack before he left the Extra Cafe. He had taken a stroll around the second floor, keeping his eyes open as he watched everyone moving around, going about their business. His mind was lost on the things Salene had told him before the kids had suddenly arrived, mulling it over, contemplating this. His senses were heightened now, high alert, watching everything, keeping an eye on as many ports of entry as he could at once. He counted the heads that came through the front gates, headed for the hospital, and the ones that left. He had gone up and down the stairs at least 3 times now, and he was just climbing back up again to do his walk around the second floor, wondering if those Technos were going to show up or if Ram had really been just been here looking for help.
He realized, some time later, that he hadn't seen May for a while, and he detoured to their room. Why did he always end up here when he hadn't seen May for a while? Some kind of quiet refuge from his duties to mull over his thoughts, and he knew he wouldn't find her there, he didn't even have any hope today, he knew their room would be empty. Dax pushed the door open and headed to the bed, not even bothering to close the door behind him. He walked over to the bed and let his fingers drag across the silk sheets softly, a smile dragging across his lips, remembering the morning where nothing was important but being there with May. He realized the sheets probably needed washing and he quickly removed them along with the blanket and gathered them, taking them to the laundry room hamper before returning back to their room, closing the door behind him.
He moved to the dresser and pulled out a black tank top and a pair of red shorts, taking them to the bed and placing them down. He stripped out of his clothes and changed into the shorts and tank top, grabbing a towel off of the chair next to the bed before moving out of their room to the Gym across the hall. It was amazing, the Mall Rats had gathered so many different things left over after the virus, machines, and they had punching bags that looked hand made, not to mention the weight benches. Dax knew it would be lunch time soon, and he wanted to get a quick work out in, maybe that would work up his appetite to replace the creeping angst in his gut.
