âNo,â his eyes were barely open, his voice becoming slurred with the sleep he fought off for her. âDecember is great,â
Lillian smiled and she kissed his forehead, "You haven't been sleeping, because of me haven't you? So get some sleep."
âWhen I sleep I see things and sometimes the Beatles are playing when I see them. Ryan died to the song I Want You (Sheâs so heavy)â he mumbled.
"Are you eating the snow? Who knows what's been on that, ew!" She stuck her tongue out in disgust.
âAt least itâs not paper,â
"Still gross. Now come on, the cookies are getting cold and everyone knows that cookies are best served warm." She plopped down on the blanket and started to unpack the food.
He pushed her off again, this time holding her by the shoulders so she'd stay back. "Yeah, it's coming back to me now. I remember why I broke up with you." He turned to face Ginger, "Ginger, this is Hayley, my ex. Hayley, this is my girlfriend Ginger." He knew they weren't technically dating but whatever worked to get Hayley out of here.
Ginger waved but blushed profusely when Ryder said girlfriend.
Hayley giggled. "Looks like she wasn't sure about that." Her tone turned instantly serious. "I love you Ryder. Not loved. Love. Present tense. I missed you so bad⌠I had to see you again. And I remembered that you gave me your address and⌠here I am."
"Still gross. Now come on, the cookies are getting cold and everyone knows that cookies are best served warm." She plopped down on the blanket and started to unpack the food.
Ryan sat up, his foot shook restlessly in an almost anxious way. His eyes darted around his surroundings.
"Hayley I told you, it's dangerous for us to be together. I didn't want you getting hurt then and I don't want you to get hurt now." Because you're crazy and I'm a player so I don't want to end up dead.
âNo,â his eyes were barely open, his voice becoming slurred with the sleep he fought off for her. âDecember is great,â
Lillian smiled and she kissed his forehead, "You haven't been sleeping, because of me haven't you? So get some sleep."
âWhen I sleep I see things and sometimes the Beatles are playing when I see them. Ryan died to the song I Want You (Sheâs so heavy)â he mumbled.
"What the hell? The Beatles? Okay, but you need sleep. I'll be right here," Lillian held him in her arms.
She passed around the food before unwrapping her sandwich and taking a bite. "What is it? What are you looking at?" She looked around, trying to follow his gaze.
(Very superstitious, wash your face and hands. Rid me of the problems, do all that you can. Keep me in a daydream, keep me goin' strong. You don't want to save me, sad is my song.)
"Hayley I told you, it's dangerous for us to be together. I didn't want you getting hurt then and I don't want you to get hurt now." Because you're crazy and I'm a player so I don't want to end up dead.
"But Ryder, I love you!" Hayley moaned, pushing against his hold on her. "I just want youâŚ"
She passed around the food before unwrapping her sandwich and taking a bite. "What is it? What are you looking at?" She looked around, trying to follow his gaze.
Ryanâs attention turned to his food, he unwrapped it and ate quickly, his foot still shook but for now, he was focused on food.
"It's not safe. I can't, won't, risk your safety." Hmm, she still is pretty hot though. Maybe just one nightâŚno! I don't need her. She's a psycho and I have someone better.
She relaxed a bit, taking a few cookies from the container. "Mmm, homemade chocolate chip cookies. Just like mama used to make."
She relaxed a bit, taking a few cookies from the container. "Mmm, homemade chocolate chip cookies. Just like mama used to make."
Ryanâs eyes met hers, âYour mom made cookies?â
"Well yeah. I had to get my love of baking from somewhere. She taught me some amazing recipes. I memorized most of them but I still have her cookbook back at my old place."
"It's not safe. I can't, won't, risk your safety." Hmm, she still is pretty hot though. Maybe just one nightâŚno! I don't need her. She's a psycho and I have someone better.
It was like she could read his thoughts. "Just one night," she murmured close to his ear that Ginger couldn't see "And we don't need to tell her," she drawled.
âWhen I sleep I see things and sometimes the Beatles are playing when I see them. Ryan died to the song I Want You (Sheâs so heavy)â he mumbled.
"What the hell? The Beatles? Okay, but you need sleep. I'll be right here," Lillian held him in her arms.
âBut the visions,â he yawned already asleep or at least close, âThe music has to mean something,â
"No, Hayley, I'm better than that. I won't do that to her." He knew he had to stay strong and stern, despite his playboy ways.
"Maybe it does, we can find out later can't we?"
"Well yeah. I had to get my love of baking from somewhere. She taught me some amazing recipes. I memorized most of them but I still have her cookbook back at my old place."
âYou should get that,â he nodded as he finished his sandwich. âAlso Thanks. I liked the sandwich,â
"Maybe it does, we can find out later can't we?"
Darren nodded and drifted to sleep peacefully.
"You're welcome." She smiled sweetly. She loved it when people enjoyed what she made, it was nice to watch.
"No, Hayley, I'm better than that. I won't do that to her." He knew he had to stay strong and stern, despite his playboy ways.
"Come on, you never stay with a girl more than⌠what was Clarissa? Thre- Four days?" Hayley said, this time loud enough for Ginger to hear. "One nightâŚ" she murmured.
"You're welcome." She smiled sweetly. She loved it when people enjoyed what she made, it was nice to watch.
âAnd, Iâve decided to name our first child Lizard. Sheâll have the nickname Liz and everybody will be like, is your name Elizabeth, then sheâll have to say no itâs Lizard,â
"Maybe it does, we can find out later can't we?"
Darren nodded and drifted to sleep peacefully.
Lillian smiled as she hummed under her breath. December sucked.
It's just one nightâŚWhat are you thinking?! No! "No, I'm not doing that. I've learned to be better. I've changed. I won't hurt her like that."
Lillian smiled as she hummed under her breath. December sucked.
âStart Me Up by The Rolling Stones,â he whispered.
She burst out laughing. "I'm not doing that!" She regained her compose and cleared her throat. "In all honesty, I'm kind of in love with the name Delilah. Delilah Nicole, doesn't that sound pretty?" (Wink wink nudge nudge.)
It's just one nightâŚWhat are you thinking?! No! "No, I'm not doing that. I've learned to be better. I've changed. I won't hurt her like that."
"Like you hurt Brooke? And Destiny? And Kayla? And Valerie? And Sopra? And Rachel? And Gloria? And Payton? And Marci?" Hayley pressed loudly. "It's one night, and she'll never know."
She burst out laughing. "I'm not doing that!" She regained her compose and cleared her throat. "In all honesty, I'm kind of in love with the name Delilah. Delilah Nicole, doesn't that sound pretty?" (Wink wink nudge nudge.)
(Oh my gosh! Thatâs the most amazingly beautiful name Iâve ever heard! Where did you come up with that!?)
âI love that, itâs way better than Lizard,â he chuckled.
