"Oh come on. Tell me please? Heroin? Crack? Weed?"
"Weed," Darren said so quietly that Lillian couldn't hearā¦ this sucked.
Lillian moved closer, "What did you say? If it makes you feel better I was on weed for almost all of sophomore and freshman year."
"Alright. Just making sure. Whatcha thinkin' bout anyway?"
"Just thinking, nothing important," He flashed her a kind smile.
"Oh come on. Tell me please? Heroin? Crack? Weed?"
"Weed," Darren said so quietly that Lillian couldn't hearā¦ this sucked.
Lillian moved closer, "What did you say? If it makes you feel better I was on weed for almost all of sophomore and freshman year."
"It doesn't help, but, I said, ummm, weed,"
She flashed a small smiled herself, before turning her attention back to Ryan. "So, what now?"
"Oh, that's nice," Lillian responded.
"We should kill Cooper, just likeā¦ kill him,"
"Oh, that's nice," Lillian responded.
He looked at the hands face still red, "I'm sorry,"
"Wow. Not even sugarcoating that one." She laughed.
He could feel Cooper looking at Belle, "No need to,"
"Oh, that's nice," Lillian responded.
He looked at the hands face still red, "I'm sorry,"
Lillian wrapped her arms around his body sideways, "Don't apologize."
"Okay first of all, no, and second of allā¦no! I'm not having Darren kill me or you for doing that so no. No murder."
"It's not me, I don't do drugsā¦ I the jock that doesn't do drugs but now I do and I hate it and it's embarrassing," He began to ramble.
"Okay first of all, no, and second of allā¦no! I'm not having Darren kill me or you for doing that so no. No murder."
"Torture?" He asked hopefully.
"None of that either! Though that does sound fun. Hmm, maybe someone else. No! He's Darren's brother and I'm not having Bal come for my ass because of anything like that."
"Do we really think Darren would be that worried about Cooper? He's an ass," Ryan smiled.
"It's not me, I don't do drugsā¦ I the jock that doesn't do drugs but now I do and I hate it and it's embarrassing," He began to ramble.
Lillian nuzzled her face into his neck, "It's not embarrassing. It's you doing what you need to do in order to be healthy."
"While that might be somewhat true, I do think that he would be worried. Now stop it you little murderer!" She giggled.
"It's not me, I don't do drugsā¦ I the jock that doesn't do drugs but now I do and I hate it and it's embarrassing," He began to ramble.
Lillian nuzzled her face into his neck, "It's not embarrassing. It's you doing what you need to do in order to be healthy."
"It's not exactly good for me, I only did it because it took the pain away. The eating makes me throw-upā¦ In the end I'm probably losing more weight,"
"While that might be somewhat true, I do think that he would be worried. Now stop it you, little murderer!" She giggled.
Ryan laughed, "I'll be right back, I'm just gonna go get some air okay?"
"You do that. I'll be here." She leaned back on the stairs with a smile.
"It's not me, I don't do drugsā¦ I the jock that doesn't do drugs but now I do and I hate it and it's embarrassing," He began to ramble.
Lillian nuzzled her face into his neck, "It's not embarrassing. It's you doing what you need to do in order to be healthy."
"It's not exactly good for me, I only did it because it took the pain away. The eating makes me throw-upā¦ In the end I'm probably losing more weight,"
Lillian sighed, "We'll work something out okay?"
"You do that. I'll be here." She leaned back on the stairs with a smile.
Ryan kissed her forehead and walked out the front door.
Cooper watched him walk out before turning his attention back to Belle.
She glanced over, now slightly nervous but choosing not to show it.
"It's not me, I don't do drugsā¦ I the jock that doesn't do drugs but now I do and I hate it and it's embarrassing," He began to ramble.
Lillian nuzzled her face into his neck, "It's not embarrassing. It's you doing what you need to do in order to be healthy."
"It's not exactly good for me, I only did it because it took the pain away. The eating makes me throw-upā¦ In the end I'm probably losing more weight,"
Lillian sighed, "We'll work something out okay?"
"Yeah," He hid his hand under his leg, sure she already knew about the tremor but he was self-conscious about it and he wasn't really ready to show all his insecurities at once.
Cooper stood and sat by Belle on the stairs, "He loves you a lot,"
Lillian smiled and rested her head on his shoulder, "Should we make sure Ryan, Cooper, and Belle aren't raising Hell down there?"
"He does. And I love him too." She chuckled. He was a weirdo, but he was her weirdo and she loved her weirdo.
Lillian smiled and rested her head on his shoulder, "Should we make sure Ryan, Cooper, and Belle aren't raising Hell down there?"
"Sure," he looked over to his tipped desk, "I thought she was my mom,"
"He does. And I love him too." She chuckled. He was a weirdo, but he was her weirdo and she loved her weirdo.
"Belle, I'm sorry," he said quietly.
"Sorry? For what?"
