Standing up Draten turned around and waited for Meghan to be done. Giving her 10 minutes to put the dress on, looking to see if she is done; He sees that Meghan is having trouble with the zipper on the back of the dress.
"Do you need help yet?" Draten asked turning back around
"The zipper is giving me problems." replied Meghan "Yes, can you zip the dress for me?"
"Okay." Draten said turning around.
When he grabbing the zipper, Draten noticed how warm her skin was. He continued zipping up the dress and when Meghan turned around, He set his hand on her head. When he looked at her face he saw that Meghan was annoyed.
"What are you doing?" Meghan asked brushing Draten's hand off her head
"You seem warm for some reason." Draten replied not fully understanding her annoyance
"Well, of course I'm warm." Meghan replied "humans are warm blooded. We are supposed to be a little warm."
"Oh, well I was just wondering if it might be from..." Draten trailed off not wanting to reveal the lie he told Meghan.
"What?" Meghan relied
"Nothing, follow me I'll show you where you'll be resting." Draten said leaving the room
Meghan followed right behind looking at the design of the ship. Without realizing it, Meghan got lost down a hall. Looking to for where Draten went, Meghan ran into the guy from the lounge.
"Hello there young miss, has Tonjandratendrexwingeh finished going over our customs?" asked the guy
"He has told me some customs, but no, not all." Meghan replied
"I also see that he has not gone over how to speak." Said the guy "If you speak to or about a male, you are not allowed to say He or him; you need to say his name."
"Oh, okay I'll make sure I will do that from now on. Thank you." Meghan said "What is your name?"
"My name is Glendreapruvuntun. Although you can call me Glen you cute thing you." the guy said flirtatiously.
"Umm... okay- Glen; have you seen where Draten have gone?" Meghan asked "I seem to have lost him."
"Why yes I have. I'll take you to him" Glen said leading Meghan through the halls "I will have to stop by the laboratory to get my journal. Is that okay with you?"
"Yes, that would be perfectly fine." Meghan said smiling
While Glen was taking Meghan to the lab, Glen showed her a gadget he has been working on. And so while Glen was showing Meghan his gadget; Draten reached the room just to find that Meghan was not following him. Walking back the way he came, he called out for her trying to find where she went off to. Running into his friend, he asked if she had seen Meghan.
"No, but if I do, I'll tell Meghan that you are looking for her. Good-bye Tonjandratendrexwingeh." She said with a smile
Continuing his search Draten noticed that the lab lights were on. He walked down to the lab to see who would be in the lab after work hours. Opening the door he saw something that shocked him. He quickly took out his pen and paper and jotted some notes.
"Get away from me!" Meghan yelled trying to push Glen away from her.
Holding on tight Glen pulled Meghan closer and said; "come on just one kiss then I'll take you to Tonjandratendrexwingeh."
"No! Just get away from me!" Meghan yelled
"Oh, be quiet!" Glen said pushing Meghan into a movable tool rack.
