Keeping you up

*Tuesday, April 9*

I was sitting with the guys when I figured I should check on Alaric. See if he's actually functioning enough to fly the plane.

"Hey! How are you doing? You get enough sleep?" I asked leaning against the door.

"Yeah, got my full eight hours." He replied.

"So I don't have to be keeping you up?"

"What?" He asked.

"You don't need me to keep you up?"

"You can stay and keep me company. I am actually kinda tired still, so having you here can keep me from falling asleep." He yawned. That yawn sounds fake, but I'm not going to point that out.

"Okay, I can do that." I said and took a seat next to him.

"So how's your day?" He asked.

"Mostly the usual, you?"

"Good, good." He nodded his head.

"You want to hear a joke Jin told me?" I asked him, trying to get rid of the awkwardness.

"Sure." He glanced at me then back in front of him.

"Okay, before I tell you the joke I have to ask you something."

"Go ahead and ask." He tells me.

"Did you hear about the kid-napping?"

"No, there was a kidnapping?" He looked at me concerned before looking back in front of him.

"Don't worry he woke up," I responded and started laughing.

I saw him smile as he continued to try to keep a straight face.

"You don't laugh much, do you?" I asked him.

"I'm not the laughing type. My sister knows that very well."

"Same with my sister, she is the non-laughing type as well. You two might actually get along very well." I tell him.

"I'll have to meet her one day."

"Oh you probably will." I smile at him.

I plan on you two meeting, you both are perfect for each other. You will end up together.

Silence.

Awkwardness.

Nothing to talk about.

"You want to hear another one of Jin's jokes?" I asked.

"Yeah, sure."

"Okay, what do you call a diet where every time you see food, you'll eat it?"

"I don't know, how is it a diet if you eat food whenever you see it?" He asked. "What's the answer?"

"A seafood diet." I start laughing.

I see him smile a little bit more.

"Let me tell you another one of Jin's dad jokes. What did the pen say to the other pen?"

He looked at me.

"You're inkredible." I answered.

"Wow, these jokes are.." he smiles even more. "I don't even know how to explain them."

"One more joke, why do cows have hooves instead of feet?"

"I don't know if I want to know the answer..." he shook his head but still had a smile on his face.
