Room 424 [early Sunday morning]

Aug 09, 2009 12:28

Ben arrived just as the sun was rising. After carefully locking up the shuttle, he trudged back up to the dorms and flopped onto his bed, then reached out for his comlink, made a couple of calls, and waited, staring up at the ceiling.

424, ender

"I have to admit," Ender said, after a quick rap on the doorframe, "That this is one of your more auspicious returns."

Ben's heart threatened to leap out of his chest.

"Ho, Ender," he said, sitting up and trying not to look as nervous as he felt.

"Ho, Ben."

Ender knew exactly how nervous he was-- and he might have been the same, if it weren't for the fact he hadn't allowed himself to be nervous about these kind of interactions for quite some time now.

It just amounted to one thing: there was no point in loitering here. They'd be better off if he cut to the chase.

Ender walked into the room, towards the occupied bed, and sat down without asking.

Ben's breath hitched a little and he reached out a cautious hand to touch Ender's shoulder. He needed to confirm that Ender was real.
