The Frame walked us past a complex set of buildings, each with numerous doors, narrow hallways and Guardians of all shape and sizes. Several glanced our way but ignored us for the most part. The Frame stopped infront of a door. "Titan. Your room is here. Companions are nearby and communication can be found within room." I nodded. "Thank you." I looked at Angelica. "Well I will see you tomorrow I guess." She smiled. "Yep! Do you ah... want to go walking with me tomorrow to see the sights?..." "Sounds likes a good idea." "Sounds like a date to m... OWW!" Charles comment was cut short by the back of my hand. Angelica blushed slightly and turned with the Frame. "O... ok! See you.. then!" The Frame led the way around the corner and up a flight of steps. I watched them go as Charles corrected himself. "Man... Seriously one of these days... I'm going to sue you for Ghost abuse..." "Whatever you say Charles..." I opened the door and walked in. The room was a very simple design. It had a small bed, a small bathroom with a stand in shower, a little desk with a lamp and a small dresser to put things away. "Oh cozy." Said Charles as he scanned the place. "Must better than the Academy I suppose." He wandered over to the bathroom and peeped inside. "Oh praise the Traveler! It's clean and doesn't stink!" I walked over beside him. "There is no wa... Holy... it's spotless..." "I know! This is the best place ever! I may just stay here." Charles floated over to the bed and rested on the pillow. I rolled my eyes and willed my armor to dissapear. I looked through the drawers to find several shirts and a pair of jeans that was my size. "Man they really accommodate here..." I grabbed them and head to the bathroom. I flipped on the shower, stepped in and let the water run over my head. I stayed in the shower for a while until a buzz came from the room. "Hello?..." Sri's voice echoed through the room quietly. "You there Josiah." I heard Charles cheery voice afterwards. "Yes you have reached the voice mailbox of..." He gave the best impersonation of my voice he could. "He is in the shower, doing Traveler knows what to hinself, can I take a message?" "Seriously Charles?... I just want to talk to him." "Well you better hurry down and you might get to see him for his glory if ya know what I mean." Sri's voice gave a snarl of disgust and got off the comm. I dried myself off and got dressed in the jeans. "Seriously Charles?.." He laughed. "Oh if only I could see the look on her face! I bet she won't come..." A knock on the door stopped his conversation. He looked at me. "Well... I guess I'll never understand girls motives..." He zoomed over to the door. I quickly put on my shirt just as Charles opened the door. "Oh I'm sorry dear you just missed it, he's dressed now." She pushed the door open, causing Charles to fly into a wall. He groaned and pointed his shell at her. "I'll sue you for Ghost abuse as well!..." He dissapeared. She grunted at him and shut the door. She looked at me. "This a bad time?..." "No not at all." I said. I pointed at the chair for the desk. "Have a seat if you want to." She remained standing. "Listen... I just..." She thought for a moment, trying to let the words formulate in her head. I waited patiently. Her stance was uncomfortable for her. She rocked on her feet slightly and only could manage glances at me. She opened her mouth and then shut it. Alfred popped up beside her and nudged her shoulder a bit. She nodded slightly. "Josiah... I... hope we can... see each other tomorrow and you have a good night's sleep." The last part sounded rushed and on the fly. I nodded. "We will be here and about so I bet we will run into each other at some point." Her eyes softened slightly. "Oh.. oh ok... yea sure." Alfred shook his head slightly and vanished. "Want to go grab a bite to eat later in the day tomorrow then?" Her eyes perked back up. "Just us two?..." "If no one tags along sure." "Yea... that sounds fine!" She nodded. "Yea I'll see you then!" She quickly left. Charles slowly appeared beside me. "Ya know... you are digging yourself deeper and deeper into a hole which will kill you." "I'm trying to be nice..." "Nice?! Do you realize what she was asking?!" "I'm guessing a time to hang out?..." "A Date, genius a DATE! And you already have plans with Angelica and Sri is the jealous type!" I thought for a moment. "Oh crap...." "Oh crap is right! You better pick one or pray Sri and Angelica likes alternating days to have you cause otherwise you are f***ed." His shell spun a bit. "And not in the indulging, pleasurable way surrounded by two hot females either." "Just shut up Charles I get it." I sat on my bed, rubbing my face with my hands. "I just don't know what to do I guess..." "This is why you are the introvert. I don't see any reason why they would like you anyway. Abusive, rude, a dick!" "Your a dick too." "Least I got the balls to use it!... Ok that sounded better in my processor..." "Yea... I'm just going to go to bed now." I lied down on the bed and watched the ceiling for a bit. "Ok fine, but you better think..." He disappeared. I sighed and closed my eyes, letting sleep wash over me like the consuming void, cold and dark. https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/169309168/0/0 link to chapter 18 https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/171506863/0/0 link to chapter 20 [b]Important Announcement Below![/b] [spoiler] In the Table of Contents, there is a new sub-category labeled 'Exotic History' that I would like to do as a community project sort of thing!
