"I think that if I allow myself to see a lot of fun then I will always have a good bit of time to make all things work and more importantly decompress from work. Work sometimes takes a lot out of someone but the fun times will always win out." She knew that her excitement could be a lot but she could tone it down as well.
"Is there like a suggestion box or anything like that around here or do you know?" She did not know why they would not take suggestions from the residents on the island.Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Madison couldn't argue that you needed down time. In fact it was essential otherwise you'd burn yourself out. "You keep doing that girl" she cheerfully replied. She could deal with somebody being that excitable and in fact could be like that at times with her girlfriend. Then Mickie had a suggestion and Madison had a reply of sorts. "I don't think we do but you could write something out and leave it with the receptionist. It'll reach the right people in time I suppose" she added. Ideas did eventually rise up the chain of command on this isle. She also had a suggestion and added "when you're next going out I suppose we could hang out. Assuming our schedules line up".

"I will look into it," she said. She was still going to steady herself into a lot of things that she had planned to do in her head because she did not want to overwhelm herself or anyone around her as she still listened. "Yes if our schedules line up and then you can pick it if you want." The last thing she wanted to do was to appear as if she was selfish and did not take other people's thoughts into her own.Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Madison considered the possibilities given Mickie had more steady working hours than she had. Madison could also have mixed evening and day shifts in the same week or only one type in any working week. "Then lets play this by ear. If we can find a period of time after your working hours that lines up with the time I'm also free we might be able to have a girls night out. It dosen't have to be complicated and I can show you a few places before she stop for some drinks or food" she suggested. Mickie Reed

"That sounds like a good idea," she said. "I know that eventually it will line up and even if it does not then I know that we will get where we need to be. Anything that you can suggest when you have time is good."
She took a second. "I applied for apartment four hundred and five. It had said that no one had it so once I get through to it you will always be welcomed."Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Madison noted the future apartment number in her phone under Mickie's name. Phone numbers could follow later on. Her own apartment wasn't as fancy as the ones ARI people tended to get but hers was sufficient for her and Mallory's needs. Feeling at home was more important. "I know that feeling. I left my last apartment behind to start my masters degree here and it took a while to feel at home in my current apartment. I'm sure I can think of something closer to the weekend if that helps you out" she replied. Life being the way it was you sometimes got what you wanted and you could be sure the weekend would come round. Which it did and a Saturday morning had lined up in their schedules. Mickie Reed

Mickie was a morning person naturally and when the one that lined up with Madison came around she was happy. She had gotten good vibes between her and Madison which was always a good thing since the two had exchanged phone numbers a few days back. She decided to send Mallory a text at first instead of just going down to her apartment and showing up rudely.
"Hey, first off I hit a guy with a book and that was funny and second off how are you? Busy at the moment or good to speak?"Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Madison was an early riser anyway and she still was on evenings and late working hours for now. It meant she was doing her lessons under floodlights part of the time but she was getting used to that. So getting up at 6am she went to the gym first of all, then did her laundry before she had a chance to check her phone. So texting back : <How did he take it Mickie? Things are busy but good. I went cycling with my girlfriend a few days ago which was fun. So what do you fancy doing? Something active or something you can chill out doing?> Mickie Reed

"I do not think that it went too well. He was tall and cute in that I would do him way but as far as everything else I am cursed!" she texted back.
"I was thinking about going out and just being a tourist. I love shades so anything that I can do to add to my collection really excites me and that is nice, did the two of you enjoy it?"Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Madison gave the matter some thought before she texted back to Mickie. Perhaps two ideas could be combined. <Girl, when life gives you lemons get some salt and tequila. I know where you can get shades and sight see. We could start at the mall and then I can show you around. I also hire you a bike.> Bikes really were the best way to get round the island but you could always use an uber for shorter trips. Mickie Reed

"I am a wild drunk but I will remember that advice. Biking sounds good we can meet outside, around the center of the arms and around what time?" She did want tequila now though but she still was going to not drink today.Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Madison looked at her watch and figured then 10am would be a good time. They'd both have time to get ready and get there. <10am sounds good. We'll have plenty of time that way and after the mall we can get you a bike> She also figured she might have to rein in Mickie just a little but she'd been the sensible person who called the ubers on plenty of occasions after a night out. If she got wild it was part of the fun she supposed. Mickie Reed

"Sounds good see you then."
Mickie took a deep breath because while she was not bad at making friends she knew her excitable nature could sometimes come across a bit much and she did not want that. As the time rolled around she found herself at the mall, waiting.Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

So rolling onto 10am... Madison cycled up to the mall on her pink hybrid bike right on time looking casual but neat. A black wrap round mid length skirt with a yellow tank top and cycling helmet along with trainers made her look suitable for the heat and comfortable to wear. She also had on a backpack where she could store her helmet when she wasn't using it and it also doubled as her purse. They'd need to park her bike in the under ground car park before they really got going but she was already taking of her cycle helmet. Then she looked round for Mickie. Mickie Reed

Mickie happily made her way out to see Madison and took a second before she waved. "Thanks for coming out and seeing me," she said. "How have you been ?" She did want to make a good friend and more than that keep one so she was going to be calm today.Madison Nottingham-Quinzell
