"It's okay..." Ocean whispered "Let's just get out of here before we cause anymore damage." He gently led Desmond toward the back, grabbing their things and then headed out through the back door and into the alley "Hopefully tomorrow, we'll still have jobs, but if not, it'll be okay... We'll figure something out." He rubbed Desmond's side and kissed his head as they headed for the portal that would lead them back to the university "We also have an appointment with the doctor tomorrow. If you can hold out for that little bit of time, we'll go and finally get to see what's going on with our baby..." He looked at the swirling colors that made up the portal, almost wishing they didn't have to go through it. Walking back to the University, however, would take days. Despite the University and the City Underground being on the same plane and within relative distance - you could see the university from some of the high rises - it still somehow ended up taking forever to get there.
