I smiled a little. "I still say it though.." I said with a faint shrug. "I feel like I should've known that your take on things.."

"I only bring it up when people say things like that." I shrug slightly.
But there is an awful lot we don't know about each other, and I hate that.

I nodded faintly. "... You know, I feel like there's a lot of things I don't know about you.."

"Probably true." I shrug slightly. "And the same about you." Ten years is a fairly long time, but not long enough to know everything about a person.

"I wish I could think of things to ask you." I said with a faint chuckle. ".. But I'm drawing a blank." Which was sort of upsetting me, because I really would quite like to talk about something.

"Well... if you do come up with anything, ask away." I smile weakly, squeezing his hand.

I smiled a bit and nodded slightly, squeezing her hand back a bit weakly. "Same goes for you.."

I smile faintly again, coming up with a question immediately but not sure I should ask it, partly 'cause it doesn't make much sense. Are you going to be okay?

"So um.." I paused for a moment, "You'll be back to visit me again right?" I asked glancing back up to her. I knew that she wasn't leaving yet.. but I just thoguht I'd ask.

Post by Arden Patricks on Mar 23, 2009 0:17:55 GMT
"Yeah, of course," I nod. "Soon's I can. But I'm not leaving yet anyway... unless you'd rather I did."
How long do you have?

I shook my head. "No, don't go." I said fairly quickly when she stopped speaking. "I was just wondering." I added.

"Ah," I nod, then hesitate before asking it anyway in a very small voice. "... How long do you have?"

I frowned faintly, just at the matter of the question. "Um.. I dunno, a week maybe." I said sort of quietly. ".. Maybe few days more than that." I shrugged weakly, "I guess it depends if I let them induce a coma.. then I'd have longer." Not that I really liked the thought of that though... I'd already refused to let them do it earlier and I wasn't really thinking about changing my mind.

I start to say 'oh' but can't quite manage, so instead I just nod, hesitate a moment, and lean down to kiss him on the cheek.

I thought she was going to say something, but instead she kissed my cheek and I smiled weakly. "What was that for?" I asked looking over to her still smiling a bit. Even though, really, it was sort of a stupid question. I was dying.

Post by Arden Patricks on Mar 24, 2009 0:41:34 GMT
"I love you." I shrug slightly. And you're dying. I think that a 'duh' might be appropriate, but I'll refrain.

I smiled a bit again. "Love you too." I said quietly, nearly muttering it back to her. The answer to the question was obvious, but I honestly didn't know what else I could say to it.

I smile very faintly, barely twitching my mouth, and wish there was a way to make us both forget about this for a bit and just talk like normal without it seeming wrong.

A small moment passed and I smiled a bit. "Do I get to see you smile at all?" I asked with a very weak chuckle, before coughing a couple more times.

"I can try," I say, smiling weakly before he coughs again and I look down at our hands, biting my lip.

"Thank you." I said smiling a bit to her. ".. So have you done anything lately?" I asked, it being the first thing to pop in my head.

Post by Arden Patricks on Mar 24, 2009 1:11:50 GMT
"Ah...." I try to think a moment, then shrug. "Had an argument with Logan that I think turned into a semi-productive conversation... saw Fitzy again with much the same sort of result... I don't know." How about you?

Post by Riley Pearson on Mar 24, 2009 1:16:45 GMT
I nodded faintly, "Are things going okay with him?" I asked a moment later. ".. Both of them, actually.." I added, "Has Logan stopped being an idiot?"
|
|
|

Post by Arden Patricks on Mar 24, 2009 1:20:14 GMT
I laugh slightly at that, shaking my head. "I really don't think either of them will stop being idiots anytime soon." Though I guess at least Logan can't accuse me of cheating on him anymore.
I swallow hard, trying to chase away that thought, and shrug. "Things are okay though. And Fitzy... I guess fell in love himself recently, or something close, so maybe he'll be less of an idiot."

I nodded faintly. "That's good.." I smiled. Plus, Logan won't have to worry about me anymore. So he's probably gonna be a better mood anyway. Just one more annoyance that he doesn't have to deal with anymore.
I lauhged faintly. "Fell in love with himself?" I asked. "What happened?"
|

|

Post by Arden Patricks on Mar 24, 2009 1:29:44 GMT
"No, fell in love... himself, not with himself." I laugh again, shaking my head. "He's adored himself as long as I can remember, but apparently now he feels the same about Lacey."

I laughed a bit more than I had in a couple days and the result was me coughing a few more times. "Wow.. that's surprising.. I wouldn't expect that."

Post by Arden Patricks on Mar 24, 2009 1:34:54 GMT
I smile slightly but genuinely to have him laughing like that, even though it falters a bit as he coughs. "Bit unexpected, aye." I shrug slightly. "Nice for Mell though, I guess, to have two proper parents."

I smiled and nodded some. "Yeah.. that is really nice." I nodded some.

"Mm...." I smile back, nodding. "Still a bit hard to believe that he's capable of human emotion."
