I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

Smiling one final time, she waved to her co-workers in the clothing store before stepping out into the busy mall with a relieved sigh. She reached into her purse to pull out her phone and dial Josiah's number - her cheeks hurting from being friendly and inviting all afternoon. Black with white hibiscus flower printed capris tight to her hips and a white halter top completing her outfit - she headed in the direction of the food court while she waited for him to answer...

He picked up his cell phone as he was walking to his car, smiling as he saw her number. "Hey there beautiful..." He murmured into the phone, holding it with his shoulder as he got into the car. "How was work?" (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 8:37pm PDT
"I'm not cut out for this, Siah!" She laughed softly - surprisingly things had gone smoothly, not too bad. "You busy?" (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 8:39pm PDT
"Nah....why you wanna do something?" He questioned, starting up the car and pausing to see where she wanted him to go. (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 8:41pm PDT
"Come see me... Now that I'm making money, I can spend more. We can look around for a bit, then see where we're at..." She was wandering slowly through the food court - eyeing her options undecidely. (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 8:43pm PDT
"Sounds good....we gonna eat? Cuz I am starvin'..." he pulled out, steering in the direction of the city. (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 8:48pm PDT
"Sure thing. I'm hungry too - I'll wait for you to get here." She snagged a free table and dropped down to wait. (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:07pm PDT
"Alright baby, see you in a few." He hung up the phone, a smile on his face as he lit up a cigarette and made his way there quickly. He came in after awhile, searching her out. "Hey gorgeous." He leaned down, dropping a kiss to her head. He was getting pretty lazy about watching who saw them together. (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:10pm PDT
It was busy there - a lot of people around, she didn't expect anyone she knew to see them. Standing slowly, she pressed a lingering kiss to his cheek before holding out her hands. "Look Siah... Working hands." (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:12pm PDT
He smiled softly, picking up her hands and pressing his lips to the palms. "Poor, poor baby..." (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:14pm PDT
"These should not be working hands." Her lower lip jutted out into a pout as she shifted closer, smiling a touch. (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:17pm PDT
He sucked briefly on her finger before he pressed a kiss once more to her palm. "What'd you have to do?" (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:19pm PDT
She reached up to kiss his neck affectionately, her smile adoring. "Fold clothes, smile a lot..." (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:21pm PDT
"Oooh..well, I can see how you would be so worn out." He winked teasingly, before he offered her his hand. "C'mon powder puff, lets get something to eat." (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:22pm PDT
Her nose wrinkled and she pushed him gently before trailing after him. "Food is good." (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:24pm PDT
He entwined his fingers with hers, holding onto them as he led the way towards the food places. "What do you want?" (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:25pm PDT
"Something unhealthy... You?" She held his hand in both of hers, her eyes scanning the titles. "Thought any about talking to Darius?" (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:27pm PDT
He looked over the selections before cocking a brow, nodding towards Wendy's. "That look ok?" (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:29pm PDT
"Perfect." She followed him over closely and took just a moment to decide what she wanted. (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:32pm PDT
His hands moved to settled her in front of him - his arms around her from behind as he held her to his chest. "Yeah..I thought about it..." (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:34pm PDT
Leaning back against him as she waited for the food, she rested her hands over his. "Yeah?" (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:35pm PDT
"Yeah...soon..I was thinking when he moved in with Fiya for good would be the time..then he wouldn't be around when we're together at your place..and he won't have to see it all the time, but he could see you being all grown up.." (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:39pm PDT
She nodded a touch in agreement, squeezing his fingers gently. "That's probably a good idea..." (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:42pm PDT
He smiled softly, pressing a kiss to her neck before he glanced up. "What do you want?" (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:44pm PDT
"Mmm." She paused a moment before looking up to tell him and then stepping forward so he could order for them - it surprised, but pleased, her that he wanted to get things out in the open. (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:47pm PDT
He smiled back at her before he ordered and paid for their food, carrying it over to their table. "So your first day wasn't all that bad was it?" (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:48pm PDT
She shook her head with a smile, popping a french fry into her mouth before responding. "Better than I expected." (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:49pm PDT
"Good, I'm glad, I thought about you earlier, wondered how it was going." He tilted his head. "I didn't know what time you got off actually, when you clled I was coming over here to see how you were doin'." (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:50pm PDT
"Come tomorrow... You can see me in action." She winked, grinning a touch - it was kind of nice having something to keep her busy. (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:55pm PDT
He nodded a bit, tilting his head quietly. "So your good with the whole working thing? Not bein' pissy with your dad?" (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:55pm PDT
She shrugged a touch, sipping her drink before nodding. "It's not so bad, I guess. And things are okay right now.." (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:57pm PDT
He nodded a bit. "You know D isn't leavin until you two are gettin' along better..." (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 9:59pm PDT
She nodded once again and leaned back in her seat - full after finishing about half her meal. "I know... I'm trying..." It was hard though, and not totally her fault - they picked fights with each other. (NT) -- Lila, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:01pm PDT
He smiled a bit, nodding. "I know you are...D said things have been gettin' better...." (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:02pm PDT
She smiled briefly, her gaze taking in the people around them in quiet interest. "I think so." (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:05pm PDT
He smiled softly, kissing her cheek gently, before he settled back down into his seat. "Soon enough we can tell him." (NT) -- Siah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:08pm PDT
"Sounds great... All done?" She stood and held her hand out to him, not in the mood to just sit around. (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:10pm PDT
He nodded, taking their trash to throw it away before he cocked a brow. "What do you want to do now?" (NT) -- Siah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:12pm PDT
"I'm easy... Always up for some shopping, or we can head home. What're you feeling like?" She squeezed his fingers gently, reaching up to kiss his jaw softly. (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:21pm PDT
He winked lightly, squeezing her fingers. "We can shop..." He liked to see her smiling so much. (NT) -- Siah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:22pm PDT
She couldn't help it - there was little reason not to right now. Tugging him with her, she headed at a lazy stroll away from the food court and towards some stores. "Sounds good." (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:24pm PDT
His arm slipped around her waist, heading her towards some stores. "Look for anything in particular?" (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:26pm PDT
"Mm, can always use new clothes." She leaned gently against him as they walked - content and relaxed. (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:28pm PDT
He smiled softly, looking down at her. "I think you look good all the time now..." (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:29pm PDT
She smirked affectionately and kissed his neck briefly before tugging him into a store. "That's not the point... But thanks." (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:30pm PDT
He followed her in willingly, his eyes moving around the store, "What kind of clothers are you looking for?" He held up a barely there skirt. (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:35pm PDT
"Anything..." Laughing softly, she tugged lightly on the skirt before moving to a rack to flip through - it was all about browsing, there was nothing in particular she wanted or needed. "You just want to see me in that, don't you?" (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:36pm PDT
"Mhmm.." He grinned lightly, his gaze moving over her form appreciatively. (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:38pm PDT
"If that's all you're thinking about, we should just hit Victoria's Secret." She winked playfully before looking back to the clothing in front of her. (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:40pm PDT
Now that enticed him. He moved over to her, his hand, going to her hip. "That I could go for..." (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:43pm PDT
She laughed softly, her hand moving over his as she reached up to kiss his jaw. "Lost interest in this already?" (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:44pm PDT
He shook his head, his eyes on hers quietly. "Take as long as you want..." (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:45pm PDT
She smiled a touch and shook her head, kissing his cheek. "I'm good. Got all summer to shop..." She was pretty sure that, especially working in the mall, she'd tire of it eventually. (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:47pm PDT
He smiled again, liking the affection she poured on him. "Wanna go in another store?" (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:53pm PDT
Shrugging, she leaned gently against him as they headed out of the store. "Nothing in mind, particularly." (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:55pm PDT
He was content to just wander around the mall with her, making idle small talk with her as they walked. (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:57pm PDT
She smiled nearly the whole time before finally looking up to him, voice a soft request. "Let's go home.. My feet hurt." (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 10:59pm PDT
He nodded immediatly, his arm tightening around her waist and looking down at her. "Did you drive baby?" (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 11:02pm PDT
She shook her head, fingers playing over his forearm, pressing a kiss to his jaw. "Took the bus.." (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 11:04pm PDT
"Good." He smiled softly, kissing her cheek and letting her out the door - guiding her to the car. (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 11:06pm PDT
"Mhm, works well.." Once in the car, she slipped off her sandals and crossed one leg beneath her as she got comfortable. (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 11:08pm PDT
He looked over at her, leaning over to kiss her lips softly. "You look cute..." (NT) -- Josia, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 11:10pm PDT
She smiled softly, her hand moving to rest on his lip as she returned the sweet kiss. "Thanks..." (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 11:11pm PDT
He tugged on her hair playfully before settling back into the seat of the car. "So where to?" (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 11:13pm PDT
"Anywhere... My dad's at work, so my place is safe..." Squeezing his leg gently, she rested her head against the seat as she watched him. (NT) -- Lilah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 11:16pm PDT
He nodded, turning the car to her place... (NT) -- Josiah, Wed, Jun 23 2004, 11:18pm PDT
