• He shook his head, rubbing his arm anxiously as he cleared his throat. "No." He realized how short he sounded and sighed. "Sorry, man. I am alright." He glanced over to his sister, frowning a bit. He didn't want to scare her at all. "I am just going to go to my room." (NT) -- Brandon, 09:34:30 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• He squeezed his shoulder gently as he passed, eyes shifting to Stacie for a moment before he nodded. "Just yell if you need anything, alright?" He didn't like the idea of his friend hiding away in his room, but he knew he probably wanted some time alone and they had just gotten in - he would give things some time to sort out a bit. (NT) -- Ryan, 09:37:34 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She let bit her as she watched her brother heading into the room before she sighed and sat down on the couch. In her still getting better time - this had all taken a lot out of her. She sighed softly, shifting to stretch out. (NT) -- Brandon, 09:43:29 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• He lowered himself to the edge of the couch, a hand brushing slowly down her side as he frowned gently, gazing down at her lovingly. "You okay, sweetheart?" He worried about her too - knew that she was still not quite 100% and wished she would get more rest.. (NT) -- Ryan, 09:45:04 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She sighed softly, shifting to tug him down to lay next to her so she could press a warm kiss to his lips, wanting his comfort and it had been at least 24 hours since she'd kissed him - that was much, much to long. (NT) -- Stacie, 09:50:50 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• He obliged willingly and stretched out beside her, arms slipping around her to pull her close to his chest before one hand raised to cup her cheek tenderly and his lips caught hers for a lingering, sweet kiss, eyes sliding slowly shut. (NT) -- Ryan, 09:54:51 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She sighed softly before she pulled back, her eyes still closed as she murmured quietly, honestly. "I'm a little sleepy and a lot hungry..." Her gaze opened to meet his, a sheepish expression hiding in the depths. (NT) -- Stacie, 09:58:38 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• His cousin let herself back in at that moment and just glanced to the couple on the couch before heading into the kitchen to get herself a bottle of water - letting the pups run over to greet their 'parents'... // He glanced up for a moment, but didn't move otherwise. "Hey Maddy." Looking back to his wife, he kissed the side of her mouth sweetly and then brushed back her hair, voice soft. "How 'bout I make some food, and you stay here and rest a little? Want anything in particular?" (NT) -- Madison / Ryan, 10:01:52 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Sounds good to me, the babies are probably tuckered out enough to take a nap with mommy." She smiled a bit at her little cheyanne, so much smaller then Colby. "Anything is good baby, something easy..." She let out a soft breath, pressing another brief kiss to his lips before she pulled Chey up with her. (NT) -- Stacie, 10:05:57 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• He hefted Colby up with her as well and then kissed the excitedly whimpering Chey's nose before brushing back Stacie's hair and then finally shifting to stand. "Rest and I'll wake you up in a little while..." Smiling a little at her, he then stepped back and headed into the kitchen to try and find something to make for her. "Will you see if Brandon wants something to eat, Maddy?" (NT) -- Ryan, 10:10:09 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She watched him go before curled up onto the couch with both puppies - a throw blanket tugging on top of her as she fell into a light sleep. // His door was open just a bit as he paced back and forth in the room, rubbing his arm absently as he gazed at the window - down into the parking lot. (NT) -- Stacie/Brandon, 10:12:32 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• He settled onto a chair at the kitchen table to flip through the paper for a while - he had decided on soup but was waiting to heat it up, wanting her to rest as long as possible... // Leaning against the counter with her thumbs tucked into the waist of her khaki cords, she nodded a touch at his request and popped a grape into her mouth before heading across the living room - quiet so as not to disturb Stacie - and then down the hall to the guest room. Knocking lightly, she pushed the door open a fraction, but waited for his response before letting herself in. (NT) -- Ryan / Madison, 10:16:08 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• He started almost violently before he let out a soft breath and cleared his throat. "Come in." He tried to chill out a little, but he felt as if little bugs were crawling beneath his skin. (NT) -- Brandon, 10:24:35 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She pushed in quietly and then leaned back against the wall just inside the door - taking him in quietly. "Hungry?" Though the only chance she had gotten to talk to him was that one time, he had crossed her mind occasionally since then - even before all this - and she didn't like seeing him so distressed. (NT) -- Maddy, 10:33:38 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "No." He answered shortly once again, turning back to the window and curling his fingers around it's open ledge. He needed a fix badly or he was going to end up jumping out of the damn window. He looked over to the girl standing in the doorway, sighing softly. He was definately attracted to her and even now he was feeling it. (NT) -- Brandon, 10:42:37 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Want a push?" A brow raised slowly as she eyed him, arms crossing under her chest - tone gently light-hearted. He wasn't looking so good and she wished there was something she could do for him, but obviously there wasn't - he was just going to have to make it through this. (NT) -- Madison, 10:46:40 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Nah, I'll jump when I am ready." He sighed softly, running a hand over his hair - void of gel so just a fuzzy mess right now - in agitation. He turned to lean against the window, watching her, one hand gripping his other arm. "You my new sitter?" (NT) -- Brandon, 10:47:55 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Really, I'm just having trouble giving up this room. I felt pretty connected to it..." She truthfully didn't mind at all, willing to do what she could to help out - the room still smelled sweetly over her though and one of her bags was still shoved in the corner. (NT) -- Madison, 10:52:34 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "I could tell just by walking in you were staying in here." He bit her lip as if nervous but really it was just his nerves themselves. "Smells like you..." He had noticed her sweet smell the first time he met her and having it linger in here somewhat comforted him in his distress. (NT) -- Brandon, 10:56:12 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Well aren't you observant." She stated and couldn't avoid the small smile that touched her lips, eyes lingering over him for a long moment before she spoke again, tone gentle. "So you don't want anything else to eat or drink?" (NT) -- Madison, 11:04:55 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "No...." but he didn't want to be alone either. He was just worried about his sister and didn't want her to see him like this - so he was trying to protect her but he felt like he was in the process of losing his mind. Maybe it would help a bit if someone else was around to talk to him, chill him out. (NT) -- Brandon, 11:07:44 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "You okay?" She questioned finally and shifted away from the doorway and into the room to stand behind him - fingers gently squeezing the tight muscles of his tensed back. Obviously he wasn't really okay, but she meant more specifically - at that very moment, how he was doing. (NT) -- Maddy, 11:13:26 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• He sighed softly, relaxing into her touch unexpectantly quickly. "Thats making me a little bit more so...." He murmured softly, leaning slightly back against her. "Do people call you Maddy?" He questioned softly, his brow furrowed gently. (NT) -- Brandon, 11:20:59 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Good..." At his clear response, her fingers kneaded at his back and then up his shoulders for a moment. Hands slipping back down, they rested flat on his back for a moment before returning to their quiet task. "Yeah, most people do..." (NT) -- Madison, 11:56:40 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• He sighed softly, closing his eyes and letting his head roll forward a little bit before he sighed gently and cleared his throat. "They are going to wonder whats taking you so long in here, Maddy." (NT) -- Brandon, 12:04:09 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She smiled a touch and tipped her head back slightly, tongue between her teeth as she concentrated on working the knots from his tight muscles. Fingers working at this neck for a moment longer, she then reached up to kiss his shoulder briefly and dropped her hands to squeeze his uppers arms for a moment before her hands fell to her sides. "Don't worry about that.." (NT) -- Madison, 12:10:08 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• He sighed softly, his voice a low, rough almost growl "I feel like I am going to crawl out of my skin..." He murmured, turning a bit to look at her. After a long moment, he cleared his throat. "Go on and eat with the fam, I'll be fine in here." (NT) -- Brandon, 20:23:24 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "You sure?" She brushed her hand over his back, head tilting delicately, auburn ringlets over one shoulder - just softly soothing a man in obvious distress. He didn't scare her and she didn't look down on him for this - there was something more more to the problem, she didn't look at him and just see 'drug addict'. (NT) -- Madison, 20:27:45 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Yeah." He turned lightly, his eyes on her for a moment before a hand raised to gently trail down her cheek. After a second, he drew back sharply, almost growling as he shoved his hands into his pocket. "Go on." (NT) -- Brandon, 20:28:55 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• If his sharp movement back or the harsh tone to his voice made her at all nervous, it was well-concealed, and she just smiled a touch. She squeezed his arm once more before stepping back a touch and then heading for the door. "Yell if you want anything..." (NT) -- Madison, 20:32:52 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• He just growled and waved her off, resuming his pacing as he let her leave. She was to much of a temptation, to illegal and it wouldn't sit well with his friend, he knew that even in his screwed up state. With a growl he sank down to the floor, holding his head in his hands. (NT) -- Brandon, 20:43:10 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She glanced over her shoulder at him once more before pulling the door mostly shut behind her and heading back into the kitchen to inform Ryan - who had finally started to make the soup - that no, Brandon didn't want anything to eat. With Stacie sleeping in the living room and her brother in the guest room, places were lacking for her to go - so she headed out to the balcony to sit cross-legged on the loveseat.. (NT) -- Madison, 20:46:39 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She shifted a little out the couch, tugging the puppies closer to her which caused them to squirm and wake her up. She yawned lightly, the twenty minute nap able to do wonders. "Ryan?" She questioned, rubbing her eyes lightly. (NT) -- Brandon, 20:51:33 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "In the kitchen, baby..." He called out gently from where he was very domestically stirring the soup. Turning down the heat a little, he left it alone to move to the doorway - hands on the frame as he leaned out and smiled at her. "Feel better?" (NT) -- Ryan, 20:53:53 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Little bit." She yawned softly, rubbing her eyes lightly. "Did anyone see if Maddy wanted anything to eat?" She questioned, standing up and moving to him to press a sleepy kiss to his lios. (NT) -- Stacie, 20:56:30 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• He smiled a little sheepishly at that - he hadn't infact checked to see if his cousin wanted anything, hands brushing down her sides to cup her hips as he returned her kiss sweetly. "I sent her to see if Brandon wanted anything, but he didn't..." (NT) -- Ry, 20:58:30 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She sighed softly, laying her head against his shoulder. "The doctor said he wouldn't eat a whole lot..." She smiled lightly though, and pressing a kiss to his neck before she sighed. "What'dya make me?" (NT) -- Stace, 21:02:20 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Soup... It's warming up." His fingers twisted into her shirt at her back and his head tilted a touch before dipping to catch her lips for a sweet kiss. "Starving, sweetheart?" He stepped back into the kitchen slowly, drawing her with him all the way. (NT) -- Ryan, 21:04:12 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She noddded a bit, going into the kitchen with him with a smile before she leaned down to the bread holder and pulled out some that she had made yesterday. "There's this too." She smiled - bringing her eyes to him before she looked out on the balcony. "I hope Brandon didn't say anything that upset Maddy...." (NT) -- Stace, 21:07:41 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Perfect. You're so smart sometimes.." He winked affectionately and pulled down some dishes for them. A hand brushing over her back before his eyes followed hers outside for a moment. "I hope so too... She's pretty tough though, I doubt she would take anything personally..." (NT) -- Ryan, 21:10:46 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She smiled a bit and nodded. "Yeah..I guess your right." She then made a face, shaking her head. 'I am smart all the time, thank you so much." She smirked, winking lightly at him before she sank down into the chair at the table. "So tired today, Ry." (NT) -- Staci, 21:13:05 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• His fingers kneaded gently at her neck for a moment before he leaned down to kiss her cheek lovingly. "Long day or two... We'll go to bed early." He pushed her hair back and squeezed her shoulders once more. "I'm going to go see if Maddy wants some. You wanna start dishing up?" (NT) -- Ry, 21:15:52 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Sure." She smiled softly, sending him on his way before she started filling up a couple of bowls and cutting the bread into smaller portions. (NT) -- Stacie, 21:20:43 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• He smiled at her before dropping onto the seat beside his young cousin. The two chatted easily for a little while before he headed back in with the girl trailing along behind - her pausing just a moment to scoop up the whimpering Chey. (NT) -- Ry, 21:24:26 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She shook her head at Ryan as soon as he came into the kitchen with the puppy. "No way, nuh uh, you put her in the playroom Ryan McCabe." She instructed firmly, withholding his food from him until he did so. (NT) -- Stacie, 21:30:26 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• His brows furrowed and he huffed, glaring half-heartedly at her before heading back out with his 'little girl'.. // She laughed quietly and served up her own bowl and then got herself a glass of water, teasing the other woman lightly. "She's starving too though, Stace. Can't you tell?" (NT) -- Ry / Maddy, 21:32:15 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "She's getting fat" She stated easily, sitting down the other girl and giving her the food that Ryan had made. (NT) -- Stacie, 21:41:39 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• He frowned as he returned and shook his head at his wife - settling into his spot before speaking. "Shh, Stacie. You're going to hurt her feelings." Almost completely serious, he winked to Maddy and then dug into the meal. (NT) -- Ry, 22:09:37 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She smirked, shaking her head before she pressed a kiss to her husbands cheek. "Ryan's going to be the biggest pushover in the world when he has kids." She told Maddy very seriously, her head tilting to the side absently to make sure everyone had what they needed before they sat down. (NT) -- Stacie, 22:29:10 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "You should have heard him last week when you were at work, Stace. He was like 'Maddy, you should clean your room' and I was like 'Maybe later' and he was like 'Okay'." She laughed softly, winked and tossed a piece of bread at her pouting cousin. (NT) -- Madison, 22:31:27 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She laughed shaking her head as she started eating. "I am so going to be the bad guy to our kids, its not even fair." She stuck out her tongue out at her husband before she went back to her eating. (NT) -- Stacie, 22:33:49 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "We don't have to have any bad guys. They don't have to go to school or shower or clean or anything if they don't want to..." He pointed out inbetween spoonfuls, only half-teasing, though a small smirk played over his features. // She just laughed softly and filled her bowl another half up, finished that, and then stood to put her dishes away and tidy up a little before heading for the doorway. "Thanks for the food." (NT) -- Ry / Maddy, 22:37:10 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "No problem." She smiled lightly before she too stood, putting the soup into a gladware container and putting it in the fridge in case Brandon wanted some later. "Your an idiot." She teased her husband affectionately, ruffling his hair as she walked by. (NT) -- Stacie, 22:38:21 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• As Maddy headed off to stretch out on the couch for some television, he wrapped an arm around her waist as she passed and pulled her into his lap, lips brushing her pulse. "But a very attractive idiot." He winked and slipped both hands beneath her shirt to rest on her flat stomach. "Tired, sweetheart?" (NT) -- Ryan, 22:42:09 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• She nodded a bit, willingly cuddling up into his lap without any protest. "A little bit...." She sighed, her eyes closing as she rested her head against his shoulder. "Been a stressful couple of days, my legs are aching" (NT) -- Stacie, 22:45:16 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Why don't I run you a bath? Then we can put on a movie and you can get to bed early?" He didn't really want her dealing with Brandon much as it was - knowing she would be sensitive to anything he said or did. (NT) -- Ry, 22:47:50 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Ok...." She murmured softly. A hot soak sounded nice cuz her legs were hurting wicked bad. She shifted off of him, standing up. "I'll finish cleaning up while you do that...." (NT) -- Stacie, 22:49:10 08/25/04 Wed

  ---

• "Go sit down, Stace... Maddy and I'll clean up." He frowned gently at her, a hand brushing down her side, tone tenderly firm. His fingers pushed through her hair before he headed out of the kitchen and into the master bath to start the water... (NT) -- Ryan, 22:51:43 08/25/04 Wed
