Mystic, still holding Danny's hand, though carefully, appraoches her apartment door, unlocks it, and opens it up, stepping inside. It's a small apartment, but very clean--not like any of the other nearby apartments. She wishes so badly she could get out of here now, and plans on it eventually, but can't, right now. She takes a deep breath and looks at Danny with a nervous smile. "This..is my home."

He smiled nicely. He felt that this wasn't the best neighborhood for a person like her; she seemed sweet, unlike the people in the ghetto, or most of them. He pulled off his Pilot's jacket off which contained a couple award patches and his wings. He directed a sweet smile in her direction. "It's nice, really." he said, his voice soft.

"Thanks.." She blushes a little bit. "Do you want something to drink? I think I've got...Kool-Aid." Hey, she's still technically a teenager--only eightteen--so she's still realy young, and childish in some ways.

He laughed lightly, but kept the sweet smile on his face. "Sure...sounds great." he said softly. His blue-grey optics scanned the room. It wasn't quite as large as his own apartment, but was twice as clean. He had just arrived, and hadn't even unpacked half his things. He quickly brushed his hair away from his face and hung his thumbs in his beltloops. His gaze was cast on her, although he attempted to keep it hidden. She was pretty, even though she was pregnant. The thought of her raising the triplets alone hurt him. She was too good for that. He sighed softly, smiling at her.

Mystic re-enters, blushing a little as she hands Danny a glass full of a purle, translucent liquid. "It's grape.." She has another glass in her other had. Grape is her favorite flavor. And besides it being good, it helps her feel better if she's sick.

"The best kind..." he said softly. He glanced at his watch. It was late, but he didn't care. He knew he should've been home, since he had to go out to the airlfield the next morning. He ignored his gut instinct and looked to her.

She has to laugh a little. She has a few other different flavors somewhere, but grape was the only one she had already made. She feels a little bad, like she's not a very good hostess--she's usually just way too shy to invite somebody in, and isn't sure what to say or anything.

"I know I must look stupid. For the past few years, I haven't had much, civilian contact, I guess you could say. I've been around soldiers like me for...gosh, forever I suppose." he said as he shrugged his shoulders. It was true too. He hadn't even seen what family he cared to see in several years during his rotations in and out of Iraq and Afghanistan.

"You're doing..very well. I don't think you look like an idiot.." Well, she wouldn't tell him he looks ike an idiot even if he did. That would be mean..And she's just not a mean person.

"Well, thanks, I think." he laughed lightly and smiled. "Um, could we maybe, sit down?" he asked with a bit of timidness in his voice.

She nods a little, cheeks turning red. "Sure.." She gestures toward the small couch and recliner in the living room. "Go ahead and..have a seat.."

He nodded and made his way towards the couch. He sat softly, still holding his US Army Pilot's jacket in one arm.

Mystic sits on the couch as well. The couch is small, but there's a comfortable amount of space between Mystic and Danny. "So..When's the next time you have to..go..?"

He sighed. He hated answering these questions, because he didn't have a definate answer. He didn't know when he'd be leaving out. This normally drove people away. He chewed his bottom lip a little. "Well, um...to be honest, I'm not sure. It could be anytime. Whenever they call me." he said softly.

She frowns a little. "Awww...that sucks.."

"Yeah. I guess that's why people don't get close to me, or don't bother to." he says with a frown. People seemed to avoid getting close to him, due to his career. It was like he was something awful to them.

She nods a little. But she fits into the category that doesn't care about his career..she can deal with him being gone..or can she? It doesn't matter..She wants to get closer to him, but is afraid to have the same thing happen that's happened to her countless time sin her life. "Just don't..get yourself killed."

"That's one thing that I make sure of. There's too many people I care about to let that happen." he said, smiling and directing his gaze at her. He wanted her to want to get closer to him, to have a relationship with him. But it was hard to get people to understand.

Like in Forrest Gump, when Lieutenant Dan say "Don't do anything stupid, like get yourself killed." "That's good..." Her blush fades a bit. She'd be really sad if Danny were to die..Even though she barely knows him.

"I wouldn't let that happen. It would hurt...well, at least a couple people surely." he said with a light laugh. His family, if that's what one would call them, had completely abandoned him and had lost all conection and refused contact with him.

"It would hurt me.." She'd probably completely distrust the world if Danny died. Nothing seems fair as it is now, but that..that would just confirm it.

His slight smile faded. "Really?" he asked, his glance narrowing on her. Her words were few, but they hit him hard. A feeling shot through him, a feeling he couldn't describe. It was different than anything.

She nods a little, smiling. "Yeah.." True, she never really says much at once, but when she speaks she means what she says..unless she's noticeably joking, and she's not joking right now.

He swallowed hard. "Well...that was...unexpected, I guess. Not many people say that to me." he said softly, looking at her. "You are such so sweet...you know that." he said softly, his words caring.

Her cheeks turn red again and she smiles. "Thanks.." Only a handful of people have ever told her something like that. And those people just happened to be relatives, or sometimes teachers.
