Compound: Hiding Presents with Aric and Tegan

Aric Chase

*he wrapped up the last of Carys' presents and stuffed them into the box he was collecting them in. He needed to find somewhere to hide them now. Sis was such a snoop, it was a challenge to keep them hidden until Christmas day. An idea struck him and he pulled out his phone, shooting off a quick text toTegan. TXT: could I possibly borrow some closet space for the next few days?SND.*Perfect. She will never look there! *Collecting his box of presents, he headed down the hall*

  Tegan GenOne *Quirking a brow as he read the text message, he sent off a reply. TXT ~ Meet me in Tech lab and we'll figure something out~ Donning sweats, he headed in the direction of their arranged meeting*

  Aric Chase *He reads the reply and detours to the tech lab. At the silent swish of the lab doors opening, Tegan met his eyes.* Good evenin' Sir. I was hoping to be able to hide this box with you for a couple of days. Sis is a terrible snoop and I really want to surprise her this year. I know she won't look at your place, she is still intimidated by you.

  Tegan GenOne *He smirked, humored by the statement. Even though the kids had grown up around him and the other warriors, his presence still made them wary - If only Micah reacted the same way to him* No problem. I'll need to find somewhere Elise won't mix it up as hers

  Aric Chase No way! You have to hide her presents too? I would never have taken Aunt Elise as a snooper! *He chuckles and places the box on the table.* So, are you done with your shopping yet? I still have a few more things I wanted to pick up but I'm almost done. I procrastinated way too much this year.

  Tegan GenOne *He shook his head* There always seems to be something I'm forgetting. If you like, we can head out together and see if we can find anything of value and specialty

  Aric Chase *sliding the box toward Tegan, he nodded his head* I'd like that, maybe you can help me find something special for Mum. I got her the stuff on her list but I wanted to get her something unexpected, you know?

  Tegan GenOne *Removing his keys from the pocket of his trousers, he dangled them in front of Aric as he tucked Carys' present under his arm as they strolled out of the tech lab* No problem son, I'm happy to help
