Meadow's Pond

[Ashley (;]

OOC:

Aubrey

I smiled against his lips, letting my fingers play with his hair. This had to be the best miracle I could ever ask for!

[Callie]

Adrian

After what seemed like a long time, but not nearly long enough, I pulled away, but kept my face right next to her. "Did you hear him? You're my guardian angel," I breathed, smiling. I felt like I might just melt into a puddle or explode from happiness or something.

OOC: I <3 mushy moments. And Adrian's so cute when he's all happy. ^^

[Ashley (;]

OOC: I knuwwww! <3

Aubrey

I smiled, "I think I can deal with that." A sick feeling started building up inside of me. I... I actually loved Adrian, and I'd sworn I wouldn't do that. I wanted to tell him what happened, but I couldn't ruin the happiness right now.

[Callie]

Adrian

"... Don't leave, okay?" I said, looking at her. There was this weird feeling in the pit of my stomach that she might want to, and I didn't know why. She couldn't leave. Not after this. Not after I was sure that I... I loved her.

[Ashley (;]

Aubrey

I took a step back, burying my face in my hands. "Adrian... I need to tell you something."

[JennyxEli]

OOC: *is in between being happy and upset*

Andy
"...Now I'm stuck," I said with a chuckle. "Umm...I would suggest swimming. The weather's great for it."

[Callie]

OOC: Why? xD

Dawn

I made a face and gestured to my baby bump. "This in a swimsuit? That's just wrong." Man... I wanted to go swimming now. Kid, let me have my good body back!

Adrian

I stared at her for a minute. She hadn't answered me. I wasn'f sure I wanted to know what she was going to say, but I crossed my arms and looked at her anyway. "What?" I asked carefully.

[JennyxEli]

OOC: I was looking forward to everybody meeting up for the funeral. v.v

Andy
"Oh please. Nobody will be watching but me," I said, rolling my eyes.

[Callie]

OOC: xD We'll just have to think of some other reason for them to get together then. Like... a wedding. *cough* Maybe RaynexEileen's... >.> (because Rayne would invite Adrian, who would, in turn, invite Dawn, who would invite Andy. And Adrian would invite Zack too, but try and watch over him and Dawn )

Dawn

I pouted at him. "Still."

[JennyxEli]

OOC: *likes this idea very much* Rayne could ask Audrey to bring Lysander and Lucky too.

Andy
"Oh fine then. I'll swim by myself in the pool, and you can sit and watch me and be bored."

[Callie]

Dawn

I sighed. "Fine, fine. I'll come."

OOC: Now Rayne just has to pop the question. I think he and I are both afraid that she won't accept, though. XD

[JennyxEli]

OOC: I think Eileen and I are wondering where their relationship will be going since they're already living together. It's so funny because they're only twenty years old. xD

Andy
"That's what I thought," I said, a grin spreading across my face.

[Callie]

OOC: *le shrug* I've had 18 year old charries get married. I think.

Dawn

I rolled my eyes. "Oh, shut up. It's only because I wanna see you shirtless," I said teasingly.

[JennyxEli]

OOC: Oh wow. xD

Andy
"And what makes you think I look good shirtless? And should I wear a Speedo too, just to make things better for you?" I laughed.

[Callie]

Dawn

I shuddered. "Oh God. Not a speedo. Never. Those are just... awkward. On the other hand, you shirtless... you've got some muscle. Maybe a six-pack, if I'm lucky." I grinned at him.

[JennyxEli]

Andy
I laughed loudly. "I agree. No to Speedos. Hmm...maybe it's a good thing I've kept myself in shape, then."

[Callie]

Dawn

I grinned. "Oh baby," I said, waggling my eyebrows suggestively, then laughing. "To the pool!" I exclaimed, waddling out there as fast as I could.

[JennyxEli]

Andy
I laughed, following after her. "No swimsuit for you? Will we be going skinny dipping then?"

[Callie]

Dawn

I smiled slyly at him, then laughed. "No. I just forgot that swimsuits are required in a pool. And I was too lazy to go upstairs and try to find mine."

[JennyxEli]

Andy
"You amaze me sometimes, you know that?" I chuckled.

[Callie]

Dawn

I smiled slightly. "Is that good or bad?" I asked him, raising an eyebrow.

[JennyxEli]

Andy
I pretended to think about it. "I'd have to say half-and-half," I decided.

[Ashley (;]

Aubrey

I stared at the floor so he couldn't see the tears spilling out. "I used to have a house, a family, all of that stuff, until a few years ago. I was sitting in my brother's room with his friend, and he tried... He tried to rape me. I didn't know what else to do, so I ... shot him. He wasn't supposed to die, I was just trying to get away!" I choked out. I'd never told anybody that before, which made me cry even more. Why couldn't I have just kept it to myself?

[Callie]

Dawn

I laughed. "Alright. I'm gonna go find my swimsuit," I said, going back inside and heading upstairs.

Adrian

I frowned; I hated to see her cry. And she made sense. If I'd been in a similar situation, I would've done the same thing. Not that I thought I'd get raped anytime soon, but still. I leaned forward and hugged her tightly. "I believe you. It was self-defense," I whispered, wanting to kill the guy myself, but if he was already dead...

[JennyxEli]

Andy
I chuckled and wondered if I should put on any swim trunks. Now that I thought about it, I didn't have any, so I just pulled off my shirt and socks and sat down on one of the lawn chairs to wait for her.

[Ashley (;]

Aubrey

I barely managed to overcome my shock enough to wrap my arms around him tightly in return. None of this made any sense to me. My own family kicked me out of the house for being a murderer and yet Adrian... Adrian didn't even blame me?

[Callie]

Dawn

After I'd changed and avoided the mirror (I didn't want to see myself and my pregnant belly in a two-piece, honestly), I took the stairs two steps at a time and ran/waddled outside as fast as I could, doing a cannonball into the pool.

Adrian

I stayed silent for a while longer, my arms still wrapped around her. I wouldn't talk unless she said something. Signaled that she actually could talk again.

[JennyxEli]

Andy
"Don't hurt yourself!" I laughed, jumping in after her.

[Callie]

Dawn

I resurfaced and shook my hair around, grinning. "I didn't," I told him with a roll of my eyes and a grin.

[JennyxEli]

Andy
"Well goody for you," I said, splashing her as I shook my hair out of my eyes.
