×Fade Away×
Tara felt her sisters eyes sweeping over her already fairly tanned body and she swept an arm protectivly accross her flat stomach to cover her vulnerable ribs; she was proud of her accomplishments but a feeling of guilt flooded through her body, blinding her senses for a moment
Music had always been important to their family and Tara, like Jordan, clearly remembered the nights they spent gathered around the fire place singing and playing instruments. They changed the songs slightly everytime, making them unique and special. Try as she might, Tara could not recall every version of the song's the old family had sung nightly- sang nightly until the accident. She bit her tongue to fight back any tears that might threaten to leak from her eyes. How she missed the old days.
Her cobalt eyes watched Jordan expectantly and hopefully, hoping she'd accept; clubbing sounded fun right about now. She remembered the first night she had been legally allowed to drink. By the end of the night Tara was so wasted Jordan had to nearly drag her home while Tara sang "Row Row Row Your Boat", toddling along behind. As Jordan accepted the offer she grinned. The comment made however caused her to wince, "Is that supposed to boost my self esteem?" She asked with sarcasim and a laugh. The two sisters had always been very competitive, in all aspects of every day life. Even though most of it was out of fun and games.
"Yeah, I still need to get cleaned up too. I spent the morning with the dogs and wolves, so I can only imagine how.. dog-like I smell!" She said, chuckling softly, "Shall we head back now so we'll be ready by oh.. say seven thirty or eight?" She sighed at the eatting comment, she knew what her sister was implying now. Was she accusing her of being anorexic? Tara sighed softly, mixed feelings stirring. "Eh.. no need to stop," She said softly, "Bar food is better than anything else we'd get on the way anyway,"
"Want to go?"
