Surprise!
Cait had been planning and had been working on this surprise for Ty for sometime. It had been hard with the link they shared, but Cait had done her best to try to keep it from him. Cait had been keeping up her end of the deal with Arthur and there were some benefits outside of getting along better with her father.

One of those benefits was a three bedroom apartment in San Francisco for Cait, Ash and Ty. There had been some objections to Ty being there, but Cait had done her best to assure her father and mother that Ty would have his own room and that the two of them were not having sex yet. It took some time, but eventually she did get through to Arthur and then came the apartment.

Now she just had to surprise her boyfriend. Cait headed to his lab.

	"Hello, my love. Feel like getting some fresh air with me?" Cait asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The illusion disappears, and the marker is set carefully back on the desk. "I'd like that, thank you, love." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She held out a hand to him. "I figured you've been in here for quite some time and fresh air would do some good." Cait tried not to interrupt him when he was working, but at times he had to be dragged out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He knows it too, and never seems to mind. He takes her hand, moving along with her, resisting the urge to teleport them to where she wants to go. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"How about some pizza and then some ice cream while we're out? It's conveniently around dinner time." There was planning involved in this. The pizza place Cait had in mind was right around the corner from the apartment. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He doesn't pick up on the apartment thought. She's a psychic, and good at this, and used to their link. Its close a time or two though, enough that she can feel him being slightly curious. "Pizza sounds wonderful. Ice cream too... sure." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-09-22 11:18 pm UTC (link)
	Cait smiled. "There's a surprise after ice cream." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He nods, and limits their link a little more, enough to keep him stable, but to not allow him to peek. "Sounds like fun." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"It will be," she assured him.

They would head to the pizza place and split a large pizza. Afterward they would grab ice cream cones a few doors down. It really wasn't any surprise that Cait picked an apartment that had two of her favorite foods nearby.

When they finished their ice cream Cait took them to the building. "I want to show you something," she said and tugged Ty's hand to go up the stairs.

	He raises a brow curiously, but doesn't ask, just letting her lead him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait led him inside and up to flights. She pulled out a key and opened the door. "After you," she said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He walks into the mostly empty apartment, pausing a moment before realization dawns. "You didn't?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-09-23 12:32 am UTC (link)
	Cait smiled brightly. "I did. This is ours. You, me and Ash. I figured it was time we get a place of our own and move out of Titan's Tower." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2011-09-23 12:40 am UTC (link)
	"Oh... wow. Our own place? I'll need to get it set up a little but this... this is amazing." He pauses. "Does your father know?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-09-23 12:42 am UTC (link)
	"Arthur knows," Cait said. "He and mother helped me get this place for us. There was a lot of negotiations and it took a lot to convince him that the third bedroom would be used." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2011-09-23 12:44 am UTC (link)
	"Oh." he replies, pondering that. Then... "Oh!" He blushes. "Yeah..." he's not sure what else to say. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-09-23 12:47 am UTC (link)
	Cait's blushing too. "I know you don't need to sleep, but Arthur needed a lot of assurance that if you did sleep you would have your own room." Though Cait had to admit that she loved it when Ty held her when she slept. She always felt warm, loved and protected when his arms were around her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2011-09-23 12:53 am UTC (link)
	Likewise, he loves laying with her and holding her while she sleeps. But he understands the intent. "I'll be sure and put a bed in there and make some use of it then. I don't sleep when I'm not staying with you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-09-23 01:02 am UTC (link)
	"You don't have to," she said. "It's mostly for Arthur's peace of mind. I like it when you hold me when I sleep." Cait couldn't stop smiling. "You like it?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2011-09-23 01:14 am UTC (link)
	"And thus, for your father's peace of mind, I'll muss the blankets a little. And... I love it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-09-23 02:08 am UTC (link)
	"Good. I'm glad." She gave him a deep kiss. "Mother said she would take me and Ash shopping to pick out furniture. Would you like to go with us?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2011-09-23 02:42 am UTC (link)
	"I'm... not sure how useful I'd be. If you find something you like though, I can transmute it and save the moving." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-09-24 03:08 am UTC (link)
	"You're a god send," she said. "I need to make an offering to Aphrodite for you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	all_powerfull 2011-09-24 04:36 am UTC (link)
	"You've already done plenty. This place is amazing. Can we stay here tonight?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2011-09-24 05:40 pm UTC (link)
	Cait smiled at his enthusiasm. "We can if you can move a bed over from Titan's Tower. I don't care much for sleeping on a floor." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
