New Room, New Theories

[Angel]

Angel walked down the long hallway to the next room by Fred's, he kept checking over his should, making sure she wasn't lagging behind "I think you'll like this one, much bigger, lot's of room to write your..whatever it is you write down"

He slowed to a halt and stopped outside the door, he took the key and slid it in the lock and turned, he could see the excited look in her eyes as he opened the door, he stepped back and motioned into the room "Ladies first"

[Winifred Burkle]

Fred's eyes widened as she saw the room, it was painted in what might have once been white, it was dusty but she did not mind that. It was too big for her to sleep in, too scary, but for her theories? Perfect.

"Oh Angel it's just perfect! I mean look at the wall space..I mean its too big to be my room, I-I can keep the other room right? I mean I understand if not y'all might have plans for the rooms I don't know about..."

Fred smiled at him, he always looked so lost when he spoke with her, it puzzled her.

[Angel]

Angel raised his hands as she talked and put his hands on her shoulders "You can keep your other room, this of this one as your own personal office, only instead of note paper you use the walls"

He smiled at her, he was willing to do whatever it took to make her comfortable being back on Earth, he would always tell her take things one step at a time, she'd came out of her room so she was progressing, he hoped soon she'd be willing to go outside and see the sun.

[Winifred Burkle]

Fred blushed as he touched her, looking down, she liked him so much. He really made her feel safe and he knew just what made her happy.

Looking up she smiled, "Really? My office, Fred's office I like the sound of that! You now I used to dream of having my own lab...well you know being in charge of everyone doing their work! But I guess this is just as good! Got everything I need right here!"

[Angel]

Angel nodded "Well, I'll let you get on with it, I'll head back down into the office and wait for the others to turn up for work" he stepped away from the door and gave her his usual friendly smile "So, if ya need me, you know where I'll be"

[Winifred Burkle]

Fred looked about the room, it was all she could have asked for, Angel was so kind, she was so lucky he had saved her.

"I'm gonna get right to it! Is Cordelia coming by? Well I'm sure she will be busy don't need me taking up her time...Yeah thanks Angel I love it, better get back to it before I forget my ideas..."

[Queen C]

Walking up the stairs she smiled holding a sandwich and come other things for her and Fred. She was worried about her, and not just because she wasn't eatting, it was because she spent all day up in that room doing nothing at all.

"Hi angel, is she still in her room?"

[Angel]

"Hey Cordy" he folded his arms into his chest and looked at the sandwich "Yeah, I gave her another room to write on, figured it wouldn't do any harm"

He looked over his shoulder and to the door "I'm sure she'll be happy to see you, just you know" he turned back "Don't talk to much, she gets freaked out"

He let his arms fall by his side "Wesley arrived yet?"

[Winifred Burkle]

Fred had just begun to write on the first wall when she heard voices, stopping her eyes widened in fear as her pen remained in mid air.

Rolling her eyes she laughed at herself, "Silly Fred it's Angel and Cordelia!" Fred sighed, but quietly she made her way to the door of her room, and opened it just a crack to be sure.

[Queen C]

Cordy smiled and she rolled her eyes. "Yes mr. Uptight and British is in his office, he's looking for his Book. Maybe you've seen it." She smiled and headed down the hall to see fred.

She noticed the door opene a crack and smiled. "Fred you there?"

[Angel]

Angel smirked "I think I might have it tucked away somewhere" he breezed by her and decided to go to his room and pick Wesley's book before going down stairs to see him.

[Winifred Burkle]

Fred giggled and opened the door fully, "Well ya know I wasn't sure if you had come to see me, or Angel, and I didn't wanna interrupt...I got a new room...ran out of wall space....too big to sleep in though.."

Seeing how beautiful Cordelia looked reminded Fred she had not showered or changed her clothes in days, her hair was messy and she felt awkward.

"You look nice..I mean well you always do...look nice that is...You wanna come in?"

[Queen C]

Cordy kept a smile on her face and nodded, in a way she wished she could help Fred more. "I was thinking maybe you could change your clothes and take a shower, and we could eat outside in the garden, its a nice day outside."

She smiled hoping fred would take her up on her offer.

[Winifred Burkle]

Fred rolled her eyes and pulled at the Tshirt Angel had given her, she was unsure about the garden, maybe the reception area, if there was nobody around?

"Well, yeah I mean I can't go sitting next to you looking like this can I?" Fred nodded as she looked at the door, "Do you think....like maybe it would be OK if I used my own room to clean up? I wonder if anyone could loan me some clothes? I mean I would totally pay them back...though I'm not exactly sure how..."

Fred's voice trailed off as she realised she was babbling again, just the look on Cordelia's face made her realise so she stood quietly smiling.

[Queen C]

" fred its not that i care, its just a shower will probally make you feel all better. Cause remember the whole never being able to shower thing, doesn't appeal to most people." she smiled and reached a hand to place on Fred.

"And i am sure i have clothes here, That would definatly fit." she smiled and started down the hall. "get cleaned up and i will be right back with some clothes."
