Aubrey hadn't seen too much of Kasey recently.
Oh, sure, he'd seen her. He'd spent some time with her, he'd had a few conversations. He'd gone out for coffee, that kind of thing. But honestly? It was like that whole fire-alarm incident a month ago had really put up this massive wall between them. Aubrey was a little nervous around her and Kasey was feeling self-conscious, and Aubrey knew that his being nervous wasn't helping. He'd fixed all the damage in his room, he'd even shown it off to her, but he was far from suggesting they have another go at the whole ... "let's put my dick near your fire-breathing apparatus" thing again. She was probably grateful for that. At least, he hoped she was. Girls weren't supposed to like that, anyway.
She was spending late late hours in the medlab and part of him wondered if it was just to avoid him. To avoid him, to avoid everyone. He didn't know, but when he went to her room and didn't find her there for the third night running, he decided the medlab was the right way to go.
He didn't really understand the concept of not sneaking up on people, because he couldn't hear. He just assumed that people would be able to hear his footsteps coming up behind them----and that was why he was easy to sneak up on and he hated it. He was just behind her, carrying a plate of fresh chocolate-chip cookies and a big glass of milk.
