Room 418, Tuesday Evening

If you were to ask her, and actually managed to get an answer, Cara hadn't had the best of weekends. But it on the whole it had left her feeling not, good exactly, or even better, but steadier. More comfortable in her skin than she'd been in longer than she cared to admit. She'd even managed to get several hours of solid sleep without working herself into exhaustion first a whole two nights in a row.

Which since she'd gotten used to that constant state of tiredness, now left her with energy to burn off. Hence the fact that after finishing her daily exercises, she'd spent the last hour rearranging the furniture, then moving it back again just so she'd have something to do.

Bobby hadn't seen Cara in a while. And the radio she'd done on Monday hadn't really sounded...right which was why he'd made his way up to Cara's room to knock on the door.

Finishing hauling her bed back into place, Cara straightened at the sound of the knock. "It's unlocked," she called out, casting a glance towards where her agiels were concealed.

He pushed the door open, looking around the edge and giving Cara a little wave. "Were you moving stuff or something?"

[personal profile] wrongkindofsith 2011-10-05 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
"Or something." Since the actual moving wasn't the point.

"It looks like moving furniture," Bobby pointed out. "Hi! How are you?"
wrongkindofsith: (Lean mean leaning machine)

[personal profile] wrongkindofsith 2011-10-05 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
"I'm fine." Why did everyone ask her that? It wasn't like they'd get a different answer. "Any reason you decided to lurk in my doorway?"

[identity profile] notlikejack.livejournal.com 2011-10-05 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
"I'm not lurking. I'm here cause you invited me in," he replied. Duh.
wrongkindofsith: (At least one of us has a clue)

[personal profile] wrongkindofsith 2011-10-05 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
"After you knocked," Cara pointed out. "I assume you had a reason for it?"

[identity profile] notlikejack.livejournal.com 2011-10-05 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
"I hadn't seen you for a while?" Bobby said. "Why? Do you want me to go?"
wrongkindofsith: (Your mouth moves and nonsense comes out)

[personal profile] wrongkindofsith 2011-10-05 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
"No, stay, I just..." She was too used to people having ulterior motives to see her.

[identity profile] notlikejack.livejournal.com 2011-10-05 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
"Was busy moving your furniture around?" he asked, smirking a little.
wrongkindofsith: (Oh no. We're all about to die horribly.)

[personal profile] wrongkindofsith 2011-10-05 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
Her options for getting rid of excess energy were limited, okay? "Just remember that if I can lift the bed, I can lift you." It wasn't quite a threat

Bobby couldn't help laughing even if it wasn't so much a joke. "Sure, but I figured that! I mean, like a long, long time ago when the Doctor said you could wear your high heeled boots during class."
wrongkindofsith: (Who's the prettiest Lord Rahl then?)

"It's because you're tiny," Cara told him, pointedly ignoring the fact that he was probably at least her barefoot height now, because clearly he was too young for to be that tall. "And what's wrong with my boots? It's not like they've got those bizarre spikes on them."

[identity profile] notlikejack.livejournal.com 2011-10-05 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
"Not so tiny!" he protested since obviously that was the point. "There's nothing wrong! As long as you like to wear them. I don't know, girls like stuff like that." He'd clearly been spending time with Caroline. "But I was just saying you're the only person the Doctor let not wear running shoes in class."

Bobby was totally tiny. In addition to the denial, Cara's perception may have been skewed by the fact most people she knew tended to be at least six foot tall.

"It's not that hard to run in them," she protested. "I'm sure even you could." This conversation would end well.

Bobby eyed the shoes doubtfully. "Yeah, if you want me to fall down and break my leg."
wrongkindofsith: (You will all die for this)

[personal profile] wrongkindofsith 2011-10-06 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
"That won't happen," Cara replied dismissively, as she bent to start pulling off a boot. "I'll help you balance if you're that worried."

[identity profile] notlikejack.livejournal.com 2011-10-06 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
"...your feet are probably smaller than mine," Bobby pointed out. Though he had pretty much resigned himself to his fate as he stepped on the back of his shoe to pull it off.
wrongkindofsith: (You will all die for this)

[personal profile] wrongkindofsith 2011-10-06 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
"Not so much it should be a problem," Cara said as she tugged the other boot off. "It's not like you need to wear them for very long."

[identity profile] notlikejack.livejournal.com 2011-10-06 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
He sighed heavily. At least she looked like she was enjoying herself. Sitting down on her bed, Bobby pulled off his other shoe and then reached for her boot. "Yeah, so you can laugh at me."
wrongkindofsith: (I'm a viking!)

[personal profile] wrongkindofsith 2011-10-06 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
"If I wanted to laugh at you, I could probably find an easier way," Cara assured him. "This is just proving a point." And it provided a good distraction from thinking about, well, just about anything.

[identity profile] notlikejack.livejournal.com 2011-10-06 01:00 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, it's the best of both worlds!" he pointed out as he hauled on the boot. Bobby had never worn non-snow boots so it took a lot of hauling to get the more fitted one onto his foot.
wrongkindofsith: (Her face doesn't break when she smiles)

Cara was this far from ruffling his hair, not that she'd admit it. "That's one way of looking at it. You might need to push your pants up so they fit your calves better," she said. Since unlike hers, his weren't skin-tight leather and all. "Probably would have been better if you'd taken them off first."

Because that would have totally made Bobby feel more comfortable!
