20: Workshop

Ty felt that if he ate another thing, even something as thin as a wafer, he would risk exploding. For him, it was an unusual feeling. He normally ate out of no more than necessity, to give himself fuel to get through the day. But perhaps that was due to the type of food that was available to him.

If he had grown up with food like this, he could easily have ended up fat.

With his stomach straining against the fabric of his shirt, he pushed his empty plate away. Then he sat, completely content for a moment, and wondered how life could change so much in such a short time.

Not that he truly expected this to be permanent. The stubborn part of his nature insisted that he had his own life. It might not have been a great life, but it was still his. Even if he was part of the team, staying with Tempest and Dinah was temporary. Just until the problem of Bane had been solved.

And maybe the hole in Ty’s apartment wall had been fixed.

The girls had also finished eating. They all stood and cleared the table, and as soon as that was done Ty had to ask. “Where did you say the workshop was?” he said.

Tempest could sense his enthusiasm. “I’ll show you,” she said. She turned to the deerkin. “Do you want to come too?”

Dinah thought about it. “Maybe I’ll leave you two to yourselves for a while. I’m going to see what I can find out about this Bane character.” Then she smiled. “But just in case you start getting any ideas, I will be down at some point,” she added, giving Ty a very obvious wink.

Tempest just laughed, but Ty didn’t quite know what to think. In a state of happy confusion, he followed Tempest out of the dining room and into the depths of the mansion.

As soon as they were out of Dinah’s hearing, Tempest paused to look at him slyly. “So, what did you think?” she asked.

“Everything is just fantastic,” Ty responded.

“No, silly! I mean Dinah. What did you think of Dinah?”

Ty didn’t know what Tempest wanted. “Uh,” he started. “She’s amazing.”

“Of course she is. But what did you think?”

Ty studied the blonde woman closely. Tempest was staring at him with a broad grin on her face. He didn’t know exactly what she wanted from him, so he answered as honestly as he could. “She is without doubt one of the two most stunningly gorgeous women I have ever seen. If I hadn’t already met you, I would think she was perfect.”

Tempest nodded, but she still wasn’t satisfied. “Maybe I asked the wrong question. How does she make you feel?”

It was like she had hit him in the stomach. It wasn’t a question he wanted to answer.

All through the feast, even as Ty enjoyed the best meal of his life, he had feared it was all too obvious how he was responding to Dinah. He’d tried very hard not to stare at her as he ate, but the reality was that he hadn’t succeeded.
