[b][i] – Kathy[/i][/b]

Before Kathy could say anything else, Lucy gave her name and turned away, returning back into Eric’s pocket and out of view. Disappointed, she looked at Eric and asked, “Sorry, I hope I didn’t offend her.” Not able to see Lucy’s expression, Kathy assumed that the curt greeting and turning away meant Lucy was mad at her. [b]“I’m glad. I was worried I’d be late. I didn’t want to keep you all waiting.”[/b] Eric said with a smile. Returning the smile she told him, “Not at all. In fact, I think quite a few of us were just really eager and ended up coming too early.”

Going back inside Zivon’s place, she stopped when she realized that Crash seemed distracted by something in the hallway. [b]“Don’t wait for me I’ll just be a second”[/b] He told them. Frowning, Kathy took a step away from the door as she tried to follow him. However, she stopped. [i]‘… Why am I following him all over the place..? I’m going to creep him out at soon.’[/i] Shaking her head, she turned back to Eric. “Let’s go inside. You haven’t gotten a real chance to talk to Zivon yet right?” Beckoning Eric to follow, she headed for the table to join everyone else around there.

“Hey Zivon, mind if I just leave the door open? Crash should be coming back soon anyway.” She asked, looking back at the door for a moment. Then remembering the tube in her hand, she placed it on the table they could see it. “Oona, Zivon. You two should apply some of this on your burns, it’s the cream Crash was talking about.”
