As Lisa removed herself from Dax's warm body, she turned towards the usual route of her rub with a stony look of anger on her face. Noticing this, Dax instantly shifted to fox and raced after her when she jogged off. Not wanting to race her, Dax fell into an even pace beside her and decided to see if he could calm her down. As much as he was infuriated by the meeting, he knew it was best to calm Lisa down and not work her up. "Hey lees" Dax sent her. "What is it now" came the impatient reply. "I know that the meeting was out of order." "Oh your dead right it was out of order". "But maybe they are only joking or"." Come on Dax you really think they were joking". "No but maybe it isn't so bad"." Isn't so bad? Do you want to do what they are suggesting Dax?" Lisa sent her reply harsh and angry. "Look lees, it might be nice to have kids and." "Yeah, wouldn't it be nice to have kids but would it be nice for kids to grow up being examined all their lives?" "No but". "Do you want people watch you make kids? Because that is what is going to happen, with one way glass and that or cameras". "I know Lisa but". "But nothing" "fine Lisa but what are we going to do" silence. Ever lasting silence. You could hear a pin drop the silence was so strong. It deafened them. Looking at the tall building that they called home, Dax shifted and looked at Lisa. "No matter what happens, I will always love you," he said. "I know Dax. But one lap of the grounds isn't going to make up for that meeting." Walking off in their different directions, each of them thought of what had been said. Having kids would be nice...but they both knew that they wouldn't be having kids if they were still ate COLA club and that was for certain...

"Hey Lisa, how you doing..." Emily trailed off into silence after seeing the stormy expression on Lisa's face. "I'm doing fine," Lisa growled at her best friend. "Is it the meeting?" Emily asked blindly. Lisa looked at her with a raised eyebrow with an expression that just said 'what do you think'. Deciding that this was indeed the case, Emily thought it would be best to try and lighten her dark mood. "Because yes they said stick to your own power group or whatever but they didn't say you had to, after all, some cross overs would be interesting right?" Lisa appreciated what her friend was trying to do, but it wasn't helping. "Oh yes, let's all grab a male COLA and enjoy ourselves infront of scientists and let our children be under examination all their lives!" Lisa barely resisted the urge to punch someone, anyone, there and then. "Aww come on, you know that isn't the truth. They just want what's best!" "They just want new toys to play with more like," Lisa muttered under her breath. "Pardon?" "Nothing..." The young ladies looked at each other and laughed. If someone had told Lisa that she'd end up being best friends with Dax's shape shifting cousin, she'd had died on the spot. But she was glad to be friends with Emily. After she lost Mia to that man who she seemed to think was her granddad or something she had felt rather lonely. "Come on though, they couldn't make me and Dax get together-we are cousins!" Emily chortled. "Imagine that though, Dax almost died when he MET you. What would happen if he had to MARRY you?" Lisa laughed, her mood lighter. "It wasn't my fault I almost ate him, he just looked so...tasty!" Both ladies were laughing hard with tears rolling down their cheeks. "You really are a great friend!"

Meanwhile Dax was having an earful of Gideon teasing him. "I think foxy eyes over here is planning on using 'The Room' everyday!" Gideon yelled at the top of his voice. Many of the COLAs chuckled at this. Then came the sound of Lisa's voice. "Oh yes, Dax and I are going to be using that room as often as we can, right darling?" Dax choked on the can of cider he was drinking and managed to say "and when did we talk about this?" Only to turn round and find Alex Teller say "why last night Daxy, it's all you would talk about!" "Oh you little-" Dax was cut off by a high pitch squeal as the real Lisa grabbed hold of Alex's ear. "Read my mind idiot!" Lisa bellowed. The cocky smirk was wiped off his face when he received what Dax assumed to be a harmful threat of some kind. Dax and Lisa stared into each other's eyes as Alex ran off to find his brother only to have their moment interrupted by Gideon. "KISS KISS KISS!" Gideon chanted pulling out a camera. Seeing this, Dax and Lisa instantly shoved him onto the floor. "Uh oh, the happy couple is on to me! Note to self, never interrupt love birds and-" "GIDEON!" Lisa screamed at the top of her lungs. "Oops, my bad," Gideon said before sprinting off. Dax rolled his eyes only to face his girlfriend's angry face. He gulped nervously. "We need to talk again...NOW!" Lisa said to Dax. "But where?" He sent telepathically. "The tree house." She sent back. The onlookers just shrugged not sure what to make of the silent conversation going on between the lovers.
