Protective.

At what cost?

Lucia curled her hair as Bob stood in the bathroom doorway watching her.

The rain had stopped.

It had been a week since Lucia had admitted to Mickey that she was falling for him.

Mickey had been slightly avoiding the woman for the last week.

Lucia hadn't thought much about it.

She had assumed that he was too busy.

With the rain subsiding, they all got to go back to flight school.

Mickey barely had a chance to interact with Lucia.

Their instructors were separating everyone for exercises.

Reuben and Mickey hadn't gone over to Casa Rocinna during the week.

Mickey told Reuben about what Lucia had said to him.

Reuben saw how distraught his friend was about the fact that Lucia was too scared to have feelings for him.

That's all Mickey wanted.

He wanted Lucia.

Lucia had time to think about her feelings for Mickey.

They had about a month and a half before they all left.

She had thought that there was nothing wrong with enjoying their time together until then.

Lucia had no idea when she was going to feel like this again about another man.

So this was a great opportunity for her.

Bob knew that Mickey was avoiding Lucia.

It was oblivious to Lucia but not to her best friend.

So, he decided to get the two of them together.

With him and Reuben.

At a club in the city.

Bob had thought that maybe.

Just maybe.

If they got a few drinks in them and danced together, then they could possibly.

Hopefully.

Admit everything to each other.

"What dress are you going to wear?" Bob asks as he leans against the doorframe.

Lucia shrugs as she puts her curling iron down.

"I'm thinking maybe the black dress?" She says as she bounces the curls in the palm of her hand.

Bob twisted his lips.

"Red?"

He shakes his head.
