Room 324, Monday Afternoon

It was official: Kate absolutely hated dealing with interdimensional time differences. Hated, hated, hated. No, seriously. Yesterday, she'd set her brother to work on figuring out a schedule for his graduation visit, and he'd called her back today (a few hours later, his time), and they'd still had to spend the better part of an hour trying to finalize something of a plan. It was a frigging nightmare. She'd almost given up entirely, especially after she'd started getting a headache from trying to understand how their worlds could have been going at different speeds and they could still be having a normal phone conversation.

But somehow, they'd finally done it, and Kate had hung up and sighed and was now sorting through a pile of fresh laundry. She'd washed a bunch of clothes last week and never gotten around to actually putting them away. Might as well do it now.

It was helping her get a little less pissed off at stupid things like the multiverse.

"Foreseeable future!" Nathan said, latching onto that. "That doesn't mean forever. That means I've still got a shot! Kate, your inability to completely rule me out has made my day."

"Slim shot's better than no shot at all," Nathan sing songed, waggling his eyebrows. "I bet you miss me anyway. Sexually, that is."

"It was one night you can't stop talking about," Nathan pointed out, snickering because that wasn't true at all. "Obviously, you're pining. I get it, Kate. You miss perfection."

"Well then, who is perfection for you?" Nathan asked, amused now. "Who is the Adonis that Kate Gregson worships?"

"Yes." Mostly, he just wanted to hear her admit it out loud. It'd make him laugh or something.

"Wait." Nathan paused and sat up a bit, holding up a hand. "His name's fucking Nobody? What the fuck were his parents on?"

"What the fuck was wrong with a name like Billy or Jeb or some shit?" Nathan had to asked, eyebrow raised. "Are the ghosts a bunch of dull witted dickheads?"

"Look at you, all protective!" Nathan laughed, amused. "You think his name's just fine because he's plowing you."

Nathan figured it was more than that but was he going to actually admit it out loud? Not a chance.

"Are you gonna throw a tantrum now?" Nathan wondered, cocking his head to one side. "Should I move out of the way of kicking hands and legs?"

"And the fact that the bloke's plowing you has no bearing on him being perfect?" Nathan asked, poking her just for amusement now. It was a hobby.

"Well, I'm taking that to mean you've been making up for lost time you spent with Douchey McFuckface," Nathan said eloquently. "And if you're not, you are not the Kate I know and love."

This time, Nathan rolled his eyes. "Love is a fucking illusion. It's there one minute and gone the next."

He grinned.

"I am so fucking wise."
