• he came in about a half hour later looking worse for wear. He hadn't shaved for days, his hair was a mess, his eyes circled with black and red. Insomnia had been his only friend for a while now. Seeing her he said nothing, just walking into the kitchen to get himself a drink (NT) -- Lochlan, 00:40:33 10/26/04 Tue
• She shifted to pull down the light blanket from the back of the couch, cuddling into a ball around her rounded stomache. She hadn't slept much - she couldn't sleep much away from him and their apartment - it just didn't sit well with her. (NT) -- Fiona, 00:46:20 10/26/04 Tue
  • he stayed back in the kitchen, in seclusion, he was mad. he was tired. he was so confused he didn't even know which way was up anymore (NT) -- Lochlan, 00:50:01 10/26/04 Tue
• She sighed softly, unable to get comfortable so she stood up, heading into the kitchen to get a drink. Not expecting to see him there- she got startled and screeched, stepping back so quickly she tripped over her own feet - teetering precariously. (NT) -- Fiona, 00:51:22 10/26/04 Tue
  • he steadied her but did nothing more, just stood there quietly. No hug, no smile, nothing but silence (NT) -- Lochlan, 00:53:20 10/26/04 Tue
• She swallowed softly, looking up at him with wide, dark eyes, her expression scared and almost nervous. "No wonder you were so reluctant to get married. I mean, I just didn't want to but you...you had a whole 'nother life...' (NT) -- Fiona, 00:55:53 10/26/04 Tue
  • he shrugged lightly "we do what we have to do and accept it" he said in a gruff voice, he hadn't spoken a word since Elana left, it was hoarse from lack of use (NT) -- Lochlan, 01:00:17 10/26/04 Tue
• She bit her lip at that, clearing her throat. "Yeah, I guess so. All I can say is I am sorry. I could have...hid better or something." She turned from him, heading into the fridgerator to grab some carrots, an apple, and then the peanut butter. (NT) -- Fiona, 01:01:27 10/26/04 Tue
  • he shook his head "I would have still gone after you Fiona. I made the choice and accepted it, and I'm happy with my decision. I'm glad I married you and I want to stay married to you" (NT) -- Lochlan, 01:04:31 10/26/04 Tue
• Her body visibly relaxed at that though she didn't say anything - just slid up to the bar with her food and began cutting up the apple with a shaky hand. She was a little overwhelmed by the news of him being engaged when he married her - it was unthinkable how she would handle the news of his child. (NT) -- Fiona, 01:08:44 10/26/04 Tue
  • he sighed and took the knife from her hand, not wanting her to cut herself and he took over, handing it to her when he was done. "there's something else though that I don't think needs to be kept secret" (NT) -- Lochlan, 01:12:28 10/26/04 Tue
• She took a bite of the apple, her eyes turning up to him - a wary look in her eyes. "What?" She questioned, biting her lip - her brow furrowed in slight upset. (NT) -- Fiona, 01:13:44 10/26/04 Tue
  • he ran a hand over his face, trying to prepare himself for this, it was a hard thing to confess. "Elana stopped by last night and informed me that I have a son...2 months old, a little boy..." he trailed off....now it was out there, that was all that could be done (NT) -- Lochlan, 01:15:16 10/26/04 Tue
• She set down the apply, swallowing as she tried to take in this information. It was quite the shock. He had a baby, with the woman he had loved by his own choice - a baby he had created out of love and not request and it was born already, in the world. He had a son. She nodded a bit, looking back down at the apple. "Oh." (NT) -- Fiona, 01:16:46 10/26/04 Tue
  • he sighed once more "We won't be seeing much of him though....she's taking him back to Scotland with her....I just figured that we shouldn't keep secrets from one another" he sighed again "It's our relationship I want to work on now. Elana is the past, and you and our baby are my future...if you're willing to work with me on that that is" (NT) -- Lochlan, 01:22:49 10/26/04 Tue
• "You loved her a lot though..." She stated, looking up at him, her eyes desperate. "You have a whole 'nother family out there Loch, the family you were supposed to have before my father forced you into this marriage...." She swallowed softly, her eyes shining with such a desperate love for him, it was obvious she would do anything for him. "I would understand if you wanted to be with her...I mean, I am sure I could reason with my father..." (NT) -- Fiona, 01:26:30 10/26/04 Tue
  • he shook his head "Didn't you hear me Fiona? I CHOSE you. I said the vows, I chased you down, I got to know you, grew to love you....this is my future....it just wasn't meant to be with Elana or it would have worked out" (NT) -- Lochlan, 01:28:40 10/26/04 Tue
• But he chose her because of his father and he grew to know her because he had to and he grew to love her because it was either that or be miserable for his whole life. Instead of saying all that though she just nodded, swallowing softly as she pushed away the apple, suddenly never very hungry. "Yeah, yeah, your probably right." (NT) -- Fiona, 01:30:19 10/26/04 Tue
  • her emotions always shone bright in her eyes and it was plain for him to see that she still wasn't happy. "All I can give you is my words....I don't know what else to do" (NT) -- Lochlan, 01:32:09 10/26/04 Tue
• "I know..." She forced a watery smile, letting out a low breath as she ran her hand over her eyes before she slipped off of the stool to head back into the living room. "You should try and rest, you don't look well." (NT) -- Fiona, 01:33:10 10/26/04 Tue
  • he sighed "I can't rest with you like you are....dammit Fiona I don't know what I'm supposed to do here. I don't know why your father brought her here or why he kept you with him these past few days, all I know is he's mad at me and he's out to make me pay for it. If you'd prefer we can let him win and we can split up or we can take this and work through it, it's up to you, you know what I'd choose" (NT) -- Lochlan, 01:35:56 10/26/04 Tue
• "I don't want to split up..." She stated, biting her lip. Things had gotten so crazy ever since dinner when he had stormed out without even giving her a chance to say anything. It was hard to deal with all this news and she wasn't sure how to make him understand that. "I am not mad at you, Lochlan, this is just a lot to take in." (NT) -- Fiona, 01:38:42 10/26/04 Tue
  • he rubbed his eyes with his hands, nodding "Believe me...I know....just...come lay down with me?" (NT) -- Lochlan, 01:39:25 10/26/04 Tue
• She nodded at that, pushing herself off the couch and shifting to head into the bedroom with him, just laying down on top of the covers, her hand tucked under her cheek as she watched him. (NT) -- Fiona, 01:42:14 10/26/04 Tue
  • he laid down beside her with a heavy sigh "I've missed you" he wrapped his arms around her, he had missed her. She had turned into a calming force in his life (NT) -- Lochlan, 01:43:23 10/26/04 Tue
• "I missed you too...." She stated softly, shifting to cuddle into his arms. "I missed you a lot." She murmured, pressing a soft kiss to his cheek as she curled against him lovingly. "I didn;t realize how much I would miss you just being away a couple of nights..." (NT) -- Fiona, 01:49:08 10/26/04 Tue
  • he sighed, eyes closing "I don't think I've slept since you've been gone" (NT) -- Lochlan, 01:51:02 10/26/04 Tue
• "So sleep now love..." She murmured softly, soothing him as she shifted closer. At that moment though, the baby decided to let its presence be known with a firm kick against her stomache. "Loch.." She let out a breath, his name escaping on it as she grabbed his hand and put it on her stomache, letting him feel it. (NT) -- Fiona, 01:52:29 10/26/04 Tue
  • he lifted his head and arched a brow out of confusion, that was the strangest thing he'd ever felt "Is that the baby?" he asked, his voice low and raspy (NT) -- Lochlan, 19:42:25 10/26/04 Tue
• She laughed lightly - the first time in days. "Yeah...thats the baby..." Her hand moved over her stomache as she shifted to stretch out on her back, a low breath escaping her as the movement continued. (NT) -- Fiona, 19:44:30 10/26/04 Tue
  • he laid his head back down but kept his hand on her stomach, it was hard to imagine that was a baby. It made him think of James, and all the things he'd missed with him, and it struck him again that he had a child, one he would probably have nothing to do with for the rest of his life. It wasn't something he liked thinking about (NT) -- Lochlan, 19:55:25 10/26/04 Tue
• She also turned quiet and thoughtfully, sighing silently after awhile before she closed her eyes and tried to sleep just a little bit.... (NT) -- Fiona', 19:56:55 10/26/04 Tue
  • he drifted off as well, the heavy burdens he was bearing on his shoulders had worn him down to nothing, and he was ready to change that (NT) -- Lochlan, 20:05:17 10/26/04 Tue
• She sighed, evantually drifting off into an almost restful sleep. She didn't know what else to do with herself right now... (NT) -- Fiona, 20:22:47 10/26/04 Tue
