Room 406, later in the evening

[izzyalienqueen]

Isabel was half asleep on her bed, rewatching one of her favorite episodes of Mr. What and not thinking about class today.

The door was closed.

"Do you know how he opened the portal? And you've already said you don't know where it goes. We need to research," she said. "Waiting sucks but in the end it's better to be prepared."

Greg looked poutily worried. "'Kay."

Isabel pulled him back to lean against her. "They'll be okay. And we will get them back."

Greg rested his head on her shoulder. "Okay. I hope they're somewhere fun."

"They could be in a dimension of amusement parks," she said, kissing the top of his head. "Eating cotton candy and riding the ferris wheel."

"Not at the same time," Greg murmured. "That'd make them sick."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"No, never at the same time," Isabel agreed. "I'm glad you didn't go through."

"I poked it with a stick," he told her.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Because that's proper scientific method?" Isabel teased. "But that was smart. You can let go of a stick if you have to."

"That's what Lucas told us to do," Greg said, nodding. "But then he didn't do that. I should set his bed on fire or something as a lesson."

"I think a sound thwapping will work just as well," she said. "If there's a fire then there'll be smoke and it'll make your gel smell funny."

"Ooh, good point," Greg agreed. "I could just dump luminol on his sheets. He'll glow in the dark when he comes back."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"But isn't that only under black light?" Isabel asked. "I'd go for glitter."

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

"Glittery luminol with dye," Greg declared.

Isabel shook her head and kissed the top of his head again. "Is there such a thing? Or are you going to have to do your mad scientist impression?"

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

"Impression?" Greg asked, arching a brow.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Well you're a scientist but since I've never caught you cackling over a beaker of bubbling chemicals, I didn't think mad actually applied," she explained. "I'm sorry. Does this make me Igor?"

"No, you're way too pretty," Greg decided. "But it does make you my lovely assistant."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I can do that," Isabel agreed. "Do I get a lab coat of my own?"

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

"It can be any color you want," Greg murmured, leaning against her.

"I'll just work my way through the rainbow," she said, running her hand through his hair. "I can do that you know. Why don't you go to sleep? Tomorrow will be a long day most likely."

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

"Not tired," he protested, except that was a lie.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Well I am," Isabel replied, snuggling close. "So stay with me for a while."

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

"Mmkay. Just for you," Greg said sleepily.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

She smiled, listening as his breathing evened out. "Love you..."

Closing her eyes, Isabel let herself drift off.
