Subject: Everyday is a new beginning, and I stand here, bewildered..

Despite her circumstances, she appreciated little things like sunny days such as these, and had decided to bring Brandon out for a little bit. She strapped him carefully into the kiddy swing and gave him a bit of a push to get him going, and then settled into the regular swing beside it, watching him as he laughed and took a great deal of delight in the swinging.

He was out enjoying the day, it was a far stretch from home but at least it wasn't the city. He was in a good mood, as he usually was, and couldn't help but smile at the little kid on the swings, he was pretty shy around strangers however. (NT) -- Jack, 20:15:09 04/19/03 Sat
She reached out, giving Brandon another little push to get his swing going again, to which he squealed in delight, bringing a smile to his mother's lips. She caught the eyes of the man watching and nodded a little bit in greeting. (NT) -- Amma, 20:18:43 04/19/03 Sat
He returned her smile and reached up to tip his hat, however realising he wasn't wearing one he ran his hand over his hair awkwardly instead "Morning..." his accent was strong (NT) -- Jack, 20:29:13 04/19/03 Sat
She smiled a little bit and Brandon waved eagerly, shouting some sort of jibberish. "Beautiful morning for swinging." (NT) -- Amma, 20:33:01 04/19/03 Sat
He laughed a little, shoving his hands in his pockets, anxious to get to meet people here, so he wandered over, his gaze wandering over her shyly, she was beautiful - but clearly- attatched "So I've heard" (NT) -- Jack, 20:44:24 04/19/03 Sat
In her line of work, social was the least of what you had to be and she smiled, peering over at Brandon. "Brandon thinks so anyways." (NT) -- Amma, 20:45:39 04/19/03 Sat
he leans against the frame of the swingset, his gaze drifting to the baby again "he's cute..." (NT) -- Jack, 21:02:10 04/19/03 Sat
She smiled a little, proud of the boy - he was her life, the apple of her eye. "He takes after his mother, don't you think?" She winked playfully, pumping her legs a little to get herself going (NT) -- Amma, 21:03:23 04/19/03 Sat
He grins bashfully and glances up at her "That you I take it?" (NT) -- Jack, 21:42:49 04/19/03 Sat
She nodded with a little grin and stopped her swinging. "That would be me." She offered her hand to be shaken. "Amalthea Scott, but my friends call me Amma." (NT) -- Amma, 21:45:06 04/19/03 Sat
He takes her hand a little awkwardly "Jack Slater...pleased to meet you" (NT) -- Jack, 21:53:28 04/19/03 Sat
She raised a brow, releasing his hand, taking her first good look at him - "The pleasure's mine." Just because she was what she was didn't mean she didn't have manners. (NT) -- Amma, 21:55:01 04/19/03 Sat
He grins boyishly, shoving his hand back in his pocket "His dad aint gonna jump out on me is he?" he was trying to be light hearted, chatty (NT) -- Jack, 22:11:29 04/19/03 Sat
She smirked a little bit and shook her head.. "Not from where he is, I don't imagine." Locked up, that's where he was, and she was glad - they'd never had a relationship and he'd never provided any support - only caused problems for her. (NT) -- Amma, 22:17:02 04/19/03 Sat
he arches a brow a touch but nods, not wanting to pry... he found small talk difficult with strangers (NT) -- Jack, 22:32:20 04/19/03 Sat
She raised a brow in return. "So what about you? Am I gonna get my eyes scratched out cause you're admirin' my baby?" (NT) -- Amma, 22:33:29 04/19/03 Sat
He arched a brow and glanced up at him "hmm? Oh! no... I just moved heer... don't know no one" (NT) -- Jack, 01:14:23 04/20/03 Sun
She smirked a little and shrugged. "Now you know Brandon and me." Her smirk turned grin and she gave herself a little push on the swing again. "But what about lovers left.. wherever you came from that are going to track you down and kill anyone you have contact with?" (NT) -- Amma, 01:17:41 04/20/03 Sun
He laughs and shakes his head, moving behind her to push her and the baby gently "No don't worry... you're safe" (NT) -- Jack, 01:22:32 04/20/03 Sun
She grinned a little as he made that 'brazen' move - he had seemed a little more inhibited than that, but she didn't mind and smiled to herself. "It's okay, I could have used my kung fu moves if I had to." (NT) -- Amma, 01:23:32 04/20/03 Sun
He grins at that... once he'd gotten to know people he was fine... it was just strangers her was wary around "Well thats comforting" (NT) -- Jack, 01:33:07 04/20/03 Sun
She craned her neck and looked over her shoulder at him. "I could be your body guard you know, just in case." (NT) -- Amma, 01:35:34 04/20/03 Sun
he grinned and focued his pushing soley on the baby so she wouldnt have to crane her neck to see him "You're not scared?" (NT) -- Jack, 01:43:30 04/20/03 Sun
Brandon was ecstatic at the attention, and squealed in delight, bringing another smile and a soft chuckle to his mother's lips. She shook her head a little. "I don't think you're too big of a celebrity or I would've heard of you, but I haven't, so I guess you ain't, so I'm not scared." (NT) -- Amma, 01:46:08 04/20/03 Sun
He laughs, glancing over to her with a grin "Good thinking" (NT) -- Jack, 02:04:15 04/20/03 Sun
She grinned a little. "They always told me I was too smart for my own good." She chuckled a little and dragged her toes til she came to a standstill. (NT) -- Amm, 02:06:26 04/20/03 Sun
He smiles, pushing Brandon gently again "Are you at school here?" (NT) -- Jack, 02:13:46 04/20/03 Sun
She wrinkled her nose, she had always wanted to - but she'd never been able to afford it - she hadn't even made it out of high school. "Nah.. wish I could be though." (NT) -- Amma, 02:15:26 04/20/03 Sun
He arches a brow and nods "me too... i was never much good at school though" (NT) -- Jack, 02:21:06 04/20/03 Sun
She cocked her head a little bit. "Yeah? I tried but I missed too much school in high school." (NT) -- Amma, 02:25:36 04/20/03 Sun
He smiles a touch, pushing the little boy gently "I went to college an all...but it wasn't as good as the one here" (NT) -- Jack, 02:33:08 04/20/03 Sun
She cocked her head a little bit, pondering it - she was a sharp girl. "Yeah I guess the one here is pretty good." Though she'd never actually been there - passed it almost everyday on the way to work. (NT) -- Amma, 02:37:13 04/20/03 Sun
He nods, running low on small-talk topic "So do you work here then?" (NT) -- Jack, 15:38:25 04/20/03 Sun
