Shell lets out a huff, pushing her curls out of her face with her free hand and bandages her finger carefully. She leans against the counter and just looks at the ground.

I listened to her for a moment before getting salads ready for everyone, working around the pieces of the shattered bowl, biting my lip softly, not being able to wait to go home and curl up in a ball on the couch.

Shell walks over to the salads once she had them done and puts them on the table. Grabbing the broom, she sweeps the smaller shards out of the way and into a corner far off from where anyone would even get close to walking still not muttering a word to her.

I bit down lightly on my lip as Shelby took the salads to the table and sighed softly as she stayed silent, but I didn't break the silence either and leaned back against the counter. Maybe I should just leave, though I knew I wasn't going to, not yet.

"So, how have you been feeling..." she mutters, turning on the stove top as she had the potatoes already cut into chunks and in the pot waiting to be cooked. Shell leans agains the island that was facing where Riyann was standing just looking at the floor again.

"I've been feeling great." I said softly, knowing that she probably wouldn't believe it and I watched her start the potatoes on the stove and watched as she moved to the island across from me and looked up at the ceiling for a few brief moments.

"Don't lie. I know you way better than that." she says glancing up at her for a second before looking back at the tiled floor.

I heard her and glanced back at her when she looked at me for a brief moment. I knew she knew I was lying, but I didn't see why she'd call me on it if it was that obvious and I stayed silent again. "I-I think I'm preggers Shell." I whispered, looking at the floor that had her attention.

Shell bites her lip, glancing up at her with a faint smile growing on her lips. "Are you serious Riy?" she asks softly walking over and hugging her lightly. "That's great right?"

"I dunno, I'm just late and all. I'm probably just freaking out over everything." I said softly, shaking my head softly. "I dunno if it is, with Riley and all. I'm scared." I whispered, just realizing that Shelby was hugging me and wrapped my arms lightly around her as well.

"Oh Riy, you shouldn't be scared." she says leaning back some just looking at her. "He'll get his memory back, recover from that neck injury and if you're preggers by the time he gets his memory back he'll be thrilled knowing he gets another daughter or a son." she says with a smile.

I nodded a little when she told me that I shouldn't be scared. Well, why was I then? "What if, what if he doesn't Shell?" I asked softly, biting my lip as I looked at the floor. And what happened to the old optamistic me?

"Riyann. He knows you're his wife, the mother of his children. I don't think he will be too frightened by this but it's not his or your fault. You gotta tell him when you're certain, or try to wait until you start showing." she adds with a frown.

I nodded again, still, it didn't change the fact that I was scared. Looking back at Shelby I saw her frown and bit my lip softly. "I know." I whispered softly, nodding still.

She nods, tucking a loose strand. "So um. Is there anything else bothering you?" she asks slowly, unsure what to really say.

I shook my head lightly at Shelby's question. "No." I whispered, looking at her again. "How've you been Shell?" I asked softly.

"Well, confused to be honest." she says with a light sigh.

"About what?" I asked softly, hearing her sigh and I bit down softly on my lower lip.

"Um. Everything." she says with a faint laugh.

I smiled softly and shrugged. "Want to talk about it?" I asked softly.

"Well. I have a lot of secrets, and they've been making me think for a while now." she says glancing at her wedding ring with another sigh.

"If you want to talk Shell, I'm here." I said softly, watching her glance down at her ring before sighing and I bit my lip again.

Shell looks up at Riyann and frowns a bit. "You can't tell a soul. I mean it."

Post by Riyann Servansikk on Jun 11, 2008 18:54:47 GMT
I nodded. "I promise." I whispered, meaning it. I wouldn't tell anyone.

She closes her eyes and bites her lip. "I've been having a six year affair with Draven Slayter. We have a son together named Jake but we haven't told a soul but Briar. You can't say a word okay? But I was thinking of leaving Jay for him. He's never here or when I go visit him at work he's not there. It makes me think negatively."

I looked at Shell, seeing her eyes shut and I bit my lip after a moment of listening to what she was saying. Six year affair with Draven Slayter, that was all I could hear after hearing the rest. I nodded. "I promise Shell." I said, nodding a little and hugging her lightly. I didn't want to make her change her mind, it was what she wanted that mattered, but what would happen to their family? "Besides, when do I get to meet Jake?" I asked with a small smile, trying to maybe lighten the situation.

Shell looks up at her and frowns. "I don't know. He's never been to this house due to the fact of us being paranoid about Jay." she shrugs lightly. "He looks exactly like him. Dark hair and those blue eyes."

I bit my lip softly, so maybe not exactly the right thing to say. I'll admit, I do feel sorry for Jay, but Shelly's been here since this all happened and where has he been? Not here, that for sure. "He probably looks adorable." I said softly, smiling a little to her.

She smiles a bit, just shaking her head. "He has a few freckles like me." she says with a laugh, but everything else he's a pinpoint to Draven." Shell nods.

"Now I want to see him." I said with a small laugh, he really did sound like a little cutie. Must be hell keeping this secret from everyone, though. "If you need any help Shell." I said softly with a small smile. "I can always." I added softly before hugging her lightly again.
