11:01pm: A Day Of Rest
Who: Coop and Adnan
When: Around 5 p.m.
Where: The balcony attached to their suite.

Coop sighed as she tucked the extra blanket around the cushion on the patio loveseat in the corner of their balcony. It hadn’t really been wet but she thought it felt a little bit damp. She was actually full clothed for what seemed like the first time in an age, and she last thing she wanted was a wet pair of shorts. Hence, the make-shift couch cover. She sat down and wiggled a bit, testing the effectiveness of her solution. No dampness detected, job well done.

Standing again, she leaned carefully over the balcony, watching people drift across the lawn below. She craned her neck to see if they would be able to see any of the actual film but she didn’t think they would. Turning, Coop poked her head into the living room where Adnan was setting up the terminal. They could hear well on the sound system but it was a bit distorted. “Maybe we should try the terminal tablet?”

Curling up together on the patio and eating their dinner out there sounded like a great idea. A nice change. It wasn’t that Coop wasn’t enjoying getting to know Adnan and working on their language barrier, it was just that they both tended to get tired of trying to communicate verbally after a while. Then they turned to communicating non-verbally and while that was awesome, she was a little sore. Her muscles ached, and as much as she wouldn’t have wanted to shoot him down the next time he turned those smoldering brown eyes on her, she thought she would have to. This was a better idea.
