Outside 201

::Cally walks up to the door of Room #201, a small plate of "Vote Cally" cookies resting on top of her hands::

::she sighs when she discovers it is closed, then knocks gently with her forehead::

Anders? You alive in there?

*opens the door a minute or so later, dressed in workout clothes*

Cally! Hey. Sorry, I was in the middle of some situps.

*stands in the doorway for a moment*

Oh yeah, uh . . . come on in.

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Hey... ummm... ::offers cookie:: Interested in a mid-workout snack?

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Sure, thanks. Not the healthiest thing, but . . . promise you won't tell? *grins and takes a cookie*

Campaigning for my vote, I see . . .

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Yeah... exactly...

::realizes there is no better way to say this::

Are you still wanting to go to Homecoming with me? Cause... I, uhh... think maybe... it... might not be a good... idea.

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

*blinks* Not a good idea, huh?

*sits down on the edge of the desk and munches thoughtfully on the cookie*

Well . . . damn, that's too bad. What makes you think it might be a bad idea?

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

The whole "we all faced certain death three days ago, and we're only now seeing each other for the first time since then" thing?

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Oh . . . good point. That was pretty frakked up of me, I guess.

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

It was pretty frakked up of me, too... ::pointedly decides to not mention anything about Cameron or Vala::

So, I figured... maybe we just weren't right for eachother, or something. And you really deserve the chance to find a girl who'll treat you properly...

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

*chews thoughtfully on the cookie for a bit*

Oh lords, Cally, is that what this is about? I didn't even think about it like . . . I mean, I never really thought about it except just as friends. Fellow Colonials.

*realizes he's sliding off the edge of the desk, and hitches himself back up*

*is quiet for a very long moment*

I guess that wasn't really fair to you either.

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Hey... it's okay. I just sorta figured... It was a good idea. Just kinda early to be all buddied up, I think.

::chews on her lip::

Worse comes to worse, we can still do that.

But I'm sure you'll find someone to go with you... ::laugh:: I'll even try and set you up with Joan, if you want. ::smile::

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Hey, if there's someone . . . oh lords, don't take this the wrong way or anything . . . if there's someone else you want to go with more, I don't wanna keep you back from that.

*smiles* Don't feel bad, okay? It was really nice of you to tell me now instead of later.

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

::smiles:: Thanks for understanding... and right now, I can't say I have a better option, to be honest... It just, sorta bothered me all of a sudden today. Because I actually only remembered about you today.

'Cause I didn't want you trying anything funny with me after the dance. ::giggle::

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

*finishes off the cookie*

Well, hey, y'know. If you can't find anyone who wants to go with you, let me know. And then tell me who passed on the offer, so I can knock their frakkin' heads for being dumb.

*grins*

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Will do... I'd offer you another cookie, but I don't want you losing your girlish figure athletic edge or anything.

You might want to see what Sharon's up to for homecoming. I think she likes tall guys. ::grin::

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Hey. They're good cookies. One more's not going to kill me!

*makes a face* I've barely seen her for the past few days . . .

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Oh, alright... ::offers the plate again::

Yeah, I only see her around once in a while...

Who knows. I just am glad Beka's decided against trying to set me up with Angelus. ::laugh::

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Hey, thanks. *munches happily on cookie, then nearly chokes on it*

She tried to set you up with who? Creepy, broody guy?

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

No, she didn't actually try to set me up... just mentioned the guy didn't have a homecoming date yet. I can't possibly imagine why.

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Weird. Look, don't go with him if you don't want to, okay?

*yawns* Oh, man. It's late.

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Yeah... I don't wanna keep you up. I'm sure you've got your crazy early morning regi... regim... plans.

::smile:: Stop by if you find yourself with a desperate need of a cookie, alright?

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

As always, yup. *leans over and gives Cally a hug* Don't be surprised if I come by with a cookie craving.

*grins*
