"Is it 20:00 hours yet?" Iceman asked Slider for about the 5th time within the past 2 hours.

"No. You still got 4 hours Ice." Slider replied, getting a little bit annoyed. Until he noticed Iceman pacing and fidgeting with his Naval class ring.

"Okay, what's wrong?" Slider asked, looking up from his watch that he was trying to fix.

"Why do you think something's wrong?" Iceman asked, not even noticing he'd begun showing how anxious he is.

"You're up to your anxious antics." Slider gestured at him with his hand.

Iceman stopped pacing, but continued to fidget with the ring.

"What's wrong?" Slider asked again.

"I-" Iceman hesitated.

He sighed, "Over time at Top Gun, I kinda, sorta fell in love with Maverick. The he broke my heart when he got with Charlie, but I'm still in love with him. And earlier he asked me to meet him on the deck at 20:00 hours and I have no idea what he wants." Iceman talked fast out of total anxiety, but he still got his point across to Slider.

Slider seemed to think for a second.

"Well, he wants you alone, right?" Slider asked, to which Iceman nodded.

"Ice, I'd guess whatever he wants to talk about is a personal matter that's between you two." Slider finally said, after moments of silence while he thought.

Iceman only nodded as he layed in his bunk, wondering what the personal matter could possibly be. He wished Maverick would've told him to meet him earlier than 8pm. Iceman looked at his watch:

16:14

His anxiety kept eating at him the more he waited.
