• she had over heard the nurses whispering about how things were going for him, and it was her first instinct to go down there to try and cheer him up.

  ---

• He managed a smile - admirably brave - and shrugged a little sheepishly. "Comics..." (NT) -- Colby, Tue, Jun 24 2003, 7:13pm PDT
  • she smiled, hugging her denim clad legs "Enjoying them?" (NT) -- Lyrica, Tue, Jun 24 2003, 7:15pm PDT

  ---

• "Yeah..." He wanted her there, but simply wasn't feeling too talkative - his stomach twisted into nervous knots and his chest physically aching. (NT) -- Colby, Tue, Jun 24 2003, 7:18pm PDT
  • she inched closer to him, her arm pressed against his, reading the comics with him "FoxTrot and Dilbert are my favorites" she didn't know how to approach the subject to begin comforting him (NT) -- Lyrica, Tue, Jun 24 2003, 7:21pm PDT

  ---

• "Mine too." His voice was soft as he glanced over at her, gaze on hers for a long moment before shifting back to the paper. "How's Chaz?" (NT) -- Cobly, Tue, Jun 24 2003, 7:22pm PDT
  • she shrugged "the same I guess. I haven't asked. No ones offered. I think I prefer it that way" she said, not meeting his eyes (NT) -- Lyrica, Tue, Jun 24 2003, 7:30pm PDT

  ---

• He nodded a touch knowingly - it was when people started to talk, and doctors started to have long, important, private meetings with parents that you could start to worry. "Yeah..." (NT) -- Colby, Tue, Jun 24 2003, 7:31pm PDT
  • she tried to focus on the paper, but it wasn't working. She glanced at him as her hand found his and gave a reassuring squeeze, unsure of what more she could do (NT) -- Lyrica, Tue, Jun 24 2003, 7:34pm PDT

  ---

  ---

• Standing slowly, he reached down and offered a hand to help her stand. "Yeah..." (NT) -- Colby, Wed, Jun 25 2003, 8:35pm PDT
  • she took his hand and stood, dusting off her jeans "wanna stop in and see no name on our way? He'd love to see you" (NT) -- Lyrica, Wed, Jun 25 2003, 8:38pm PDT

  ---

• He nodded, glancing towards Tash's closed door before tugging her after him down the hall. "He can come on our walk." (NT) -- Colby, Wed, Jun 25 2003, 8:39pm PDT
  • she smiled slightly, following after him "He'll like that even better" (NT) -- Lyrica, Wed, Jun 25 2003, 8:41pm PDT

  • she went in and didn't spare the figure in the bed a single glance, scooping up the basket with the puppy inside and leaving the room the same as she had left, eyes lowered. She closed the door and gave him a shakey smile "Ready?" (NT) -- Lyrica, Wed, Jun 25 2003, 8:45pm PDT

  ---

• His hand reassuringly brushed her lower back before he nodded and gestured down the hall. "Yeah, c'mon sweetheart." (NT) -- Colby, Wed, Jun 25 2003, 8:47pm PDT
  • she held the basket tightly to her chest, her hair forming a curtain around her face, she knew this floor so well she didn't have to look to see where she was walking "I'm never gonna get a tan with all the time I spend here" she said dryly with a slight sigh (NT) -- Lyrica, Wed, Jun 25 2003, 8:50pm PDT

  ---

• "Me neither..." She knew the way, but still his hand remained on her back as guidance. (NT) -- Cobly, Wed, Jun 25 2003, 8:52pm PDT

  ---

• "You're pretty any way." He nodded confidently, holding the door open to let them out into the lawns. (NT) -- Colby, Wed, Jun 25 2003, 8:57pm PDT

  ---

• A few minutes later, he set the puppy down to let him do some exploring, and dropped down beside her. "You think?" (NT) -- Colby, Wed, Jun 25 2003, 9:07pm PDT
  • she nodded patting his knee "Sure I do...he doesn't get all pepped up like that for everyone you know" (NT) -- Lyrica, Wed, Jun 25 2003, 9:09pm PDT

  ---

• "But I'm not just anyone." He winked, smiling a touch when he glanced back to her. (NT) -- Colby, Wed, Jun 25 2003, 9:10pm PDT
