CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT

The Nightmarish Truth

One hour later.

Tillie and her party emerged from the access tunnel at the other end of the line—the girl in much better spirits than she was when she first started out.

Of course, her feet felt somewhat sore from the experience, but she realized that her main problem was that she hadn’t had the time to break in her new boots yet.

Hence the recent pain in her ankles, her feet, and everywhere else.

But the trip back to the alleyway where she and Charlie first met was an uneventful one this time around and closing in on about four in the morning by the time they got back to the barricade and then down the stairs and finally down the hall where the hidden platform lay.

Tillie yawned to beat the band and said: “I am so fucking tired right now. But the trip over through the capsule was one for the record books. I rather enjoyed myself.”

“You were laughing and giggling the entire time,” her companion said with mutual embarrassment. “And you wouldn’t stop pawing me either through the fire blanket.”

“I was curious!” The girl said in mild defense of herself. “I never had to ride like that before where—” and was cut off when Charlie clamped a hand over her mouth—silencing her.

“Please don’t say it. I don’t need Roz on my case when I get back to my place over the whole experience.” Then he let go of her at that moment.

Tillie grinned.

“Does somebody have a jealous girlfriend that I don’t know about?” She teased mercilessly—enjoying the look on his face.

“I already told you that she’s just a close friend of mine.” He said in defense of himself. “Nothing more.”

“Hmph.” The teen said in response. “I dunno about that. Sounds like I have some serious competition on my hands.”

“Roz would kick your ass in a heartbeat. She’s that wound up. And strong to boot.” Charlie tossed out then after the platform cycled a few times and then started.

Tillie took that as a personal challenge to herself.

“I’m no pushover, bud. I can handle mean-spirited girlfriends who are not girlfriends.”

Charlie snorted derisively. “You don’t know Roz the way I do. She’ll eat you alive in a head to head contest—if it ever came to that.”

“Why?” the other girl asked—curiosity getting the better of her.

The older boy coughed a couple of times with his hand in order to cover for his own embarrassment.

“She’s, ah…very protective of me.” He admitted at that point.

Tillie punched him in the shoulder lightly. “You? Needing protection from a girl? Get out!”

Charlie nodded in mutual embarrassment. “It’s a long story.” He said in turn.

Tillie waited for him to spill the beans on that front, but he wasn’t very forthcoming.

Rolling her eyes, she muttered crossly: “Look man, I don’t have all day. I’m going to be crashing hardcore when I get back to the women’s mission and I at least want a good bedtime story to go with it. So out with it.”

“Why should I tell you?” He deflected with ease—even though he was a bit uncomfortable with the idea from the start.
