• He had had to go in for another operation the day after his first one- another brain surgery to fix the slight paralysis in his left leg- where his nerves had been damaged. He was feeling much better now though, espeically since he was out of ICU- though he was heavily monitored still. He was off oxygen and sitting up and watching TV, waiting for his daily visit from Ais. He glanced out the window as he often did, trying to see what was going on int he outside world, when his blue eyes landed on what seemed to be a very family girl with a very familiar baby- but the pair of them together wasn;t familiar at all. He grinned as Aislin came into the room with his son on her hip, feeling a swell of love and pride as he watched her. "Well look at you..." (NT) -- Andre, 11:35:11 02/09/07 Fri
• She couldn't help the curl of one corner of her mouth as he spoke to her and she recognized the pride in his eyes - she had come a long way, a damn long way, in only five days, and Aaron didn't seem to be in disagreement at all - he rarely fussed and never seemed to be too interested in where his father was - she supposed it was because she was a friendly face. "Hey daddy... how are you feeling today?" She hoisted the baby up on her hip. "I thought he'd like to see you today." (NT) -- Ais, 11:44:02 02/09/07 Fri
• Andre grinned a touch to see his boy, looking so at home on Ais' hip, and she looked so natural holding him "So you haven't broken him yet huh?" He teased, smirking a little bit "I feel good... better anyway- my toes all wiggle and everything now." He smirked sleepily, his gaze turning a little more serious "How you getting along?" (NT) -- Andre, 14:28:12 02/09/07 Fri
• "I haven't even dropped him yet. Not once." She grinned proudly and settled herself on the familiar chair at the edge of his bed, settling the child onto her lap familiarly - they had spent many hours in this pose already, watching TV together. "It's okay... I hope you don't mind, but I've inhabited your apartment.. I've been using the spare key. And I brought Duke, but I've been really careful." She nodded a bit to reaffirm her statements and then looked down to his feet at the end of the bed. "I'm glad about your toes." No one had said anything about the paralysis being temporary or permanent but it had been something that had weighed heavily on her mind and if she knew Andre, on his as well. (NT) -- Ais, 14:31:45 02/09/07 Fri
• Andre laughed a little that and nodded at her bringing Duke. He didn;t think the dog had a harmful hair in him- but accidents could happen and he was sure she was being careful- he had no worried at all- he had the forst night- but they had soon eased away after Donna had told him how well she was getting on. He wiggled his toes for her in demonstration, smirking a little bit. "My dad called ... wanted to know if I needed them to fly out to come and get Aaron... I told him it was taken care of though..." (NT) -- Andre, 14:53:13 02/09/07 Fri
• She smiled broadly when he mentioned that he'd told his father that things were taken care of. "It means a lot to me that you trust me to take care of him, considering the state affairs were in before this all happened." She had a hand protectively on the baby's tummy, holding him on her lap easily, bouncing him a bit as he gurgled. "I think I've devoured all of the parenting books in existence since I brought my stuff into your place. I've hardly even called Donna, you should be proud of me." She grinned broadly like a five year old presenting their mother with a macaroni drawing. (NT) -- Ais, 15:00:01 02/09/07 Fri
• Andre smirked a little as he watched her bounce the baby on her hip, feeling much more relaxed about her loking after him now he'd seen them together "You look really good with him..." Anyone could mistake the blonde haired baby for her son, he had Andre's blue eyes , he would be quite the little surfer given time. "Is he settled alright?" He figured he would be- Ais was a very familiar face for him and he was a pretty easy going baby- didn't really care who looked after him as long as they paid him attention. (NT) -- Andre, 05:43:00 02/12/07 Mon
• So much she enjoyed taking care of the child that she colored a bit in the cheeks when he said she looked good with him and looked down at the boy on her lap, shaking her head. "He's been so good - I don't know why you ever complained about the crying." She teased, flashing him a bright grin. "My only complaint is the hair pulling but you know, they invented something to solve that problem called a hair elastic." She turned her head to show her thick blonde hair in a band on the back of her neck. "I may just cut it all off though." (NT) -- Ais, 05:48:20 02/12/07 Mon
• "Don't you dare" He played, a smirk flickering over his lips. He loved her hair long, and he would buy her a lifetime supply of hair elastics if it meant she could keep her long hair "I don't tend to have the hair pulling problem though." he grinned a little and reached his hands out for his son- he'd missed the little tyke a great deal. (NT) -- Andre, 06:05:14 02/12/07 Mon
• She hadn't been sure he would be able to handle holding the boy but when he reached out for him, she had no hesitations, rising and passing the babe over easily. "See, that's where I got the cutting idea." She smirked a little bit and settled herself on the edge of the bed beside the two, forming the picture of a perfect little family for any passers by. "He's not you, but he's been a suitable replacement for the time being. He even has some of your qualities, like a heartmelting smile and eyes." She leaned over the pair and kissed Andre lightly on the cheek. "But I wouldn't worry about him replacing you anytime soon." (NT) -- Ais, 06:13:21 02/12/07 Mon
• He laughed a little at that, letting the little boy rest against his chest, his hand on his back. He wouldn;t be able to hold him for long- he didn;t want the little boy getting bored and ripping out his IV or anything... he just wanted to hold him for a couple of minutes "I think he got bigger..." He smirked a little, glancing to Ais "You know he could never replace the original." He tried a little girn before letting her take Aaron back, his gaze lingering over hers "I'm thinking we shouldn't try taking any road trips for a while..." (NT) -- Andre, 06:22:20 02/12/07 Mon
• She smiled watching him interact with his son - now that she knew the baby a bit better, it was a lot more heartwarming than it had been previously when she only thought of Aaron as a comittment that Andre had to fulfill. She took him back graciously and the baby went without complaint, which also made her smile. "If we don't ever leave the apartment again once we get you home, that's okay too." She grinned a little bit and reached down to squeeze his hand. "I called the realtor in Hawaii to let him know we're going to be a little while before we can get down there. He was very understanding, is locking the place back up for a while, until we call him he said." (NT) -- Ais, 06:32:08 02/12/07 Mon
• He laughed as well as he could, which asn;t hugely well, at her comment about never leaving the apartment- he was certain she would soon change her tune on that one. He cocked a brow as she told him she had called his realtor, nodding a little and letting out a breath "Thats good... we'll get down their for the spring at least..." Her competitions would be on the doorstep then- and his- if he was able to surf again. (NT) -- Andre, 07:49:20 02/12/07 Mon
• "The tournaments will all be starting then..." She wasn't sure that he'd be able to surf much let alone compete, but she could do them both proud, she figured. She didn't say anything regarding whether he'd be capable of surfing or not - knowing it was a painful issue to broach right now - and it was a shame because he'd just been getting himself back into the water with passion and fervor that he had been missing. "But lots more time for training." Much to her mother's dismay, she'd been missing lots of training while caring for the baby, preferring his company over Ace's - though the woman couldn't blame her, Ace was smitten with Aaron just as badly as Ais was. (NT) -- Ais, 08:01:31 02/12/07 Mon
• He grinned at that and nodded, resting his head back in his pillows "You're mum will be pleased at that..." He had a lot of respect for her mother- but she did put the shits in him a little bit- she was intense. He barely remembered her from when he was a kid- but his parents always had good things to say about her. "Your mom met Aaron yet?" (NT) -- Andre, 08:06:20 02/12/07 Mon
• She nodded at his comment about Ace being pleased - she was a hard pill to swallow sometimes - blunt and outright as they came and sometimes tactless, much like Aislinn's personality, but times ten... but those who got to know her usually loved her. "Yeah, I showed up for what was supposed to be a weights session in the gym with him. She was a little surprised but was instantly charmed by that grin and the eyes." She laughed a little bit - it had been interesting to say the least. "I do have to call Donna tomorrow so I can get some morning training done though, or mom will be coming undone at the seams." (NT) -- Ais, 08:15:08 02/12/07 Mon
• He grinned at that and nodded "You should get donna to take him for at least a little part of every day- its good to give yourself a break... and I don;t want you're mom to hate me" He played, grinning a little. Her surfing career was important to her- it was her passion- no matter how much her mother pushed her it was still her dream, and he didn;t want to come in the way of that. "Besides- Donna will be missing him.." (NT) -- Andre, 08:27:13 02/12/07 Mon
• "I think she does - she calls to check in on things once in a while... but I've definitely got things under control." She grinned proudly, she did have things under control for the time being but she wasn't sure how anyone could ever handle a career in addition to a child even if you had all the wonderful resources as far as childcare that she had access to - namely Donna, who would come out anytime anyday to help out. "Duke is getting pretty comfortable in your pad, I'm afraid you'll have a hard time evicting him when you come home." (NT) -- Ais, 08:57:58 02/12/07 Mon
• He smirks a little at that and closed his eyes, tired and medicated "Who says... I'll be evicting him?" He opened his blue eyes and glanced back to her, his gaze flickeirng over hers curiously. "I'll have a hard time looking after Aaron... and getting around... on my own- But I understand if you are anxious to go home..." (NT) -- Andre, 10:11:56 02/12/07 Mon
• She shrugged a bit impishly, and offered him a smile. "Well as long as you need me and until you get sick of me, I'll hang around... wouldn't want you having to depend on some strange woman to dress and undress you." She raised a brow in his direction - as direct or indirect of an invitiation as it was to stay with him, it did make butterflies flare up in her stomach. "You know I wouldn't just abandon you anyways... though I won't have any real excuses not to get as much training in as I do now when you get home." (NT) -- Ais, 10:51:19 02/12/07 Mon
• He laughed a little bit at that and rested his head back, feeling content that she was sticking around "I'm sorry you have all this on your shoulders... You dont have to do it you know" He murmured- he didn;t want to tie her down or make her resentful. He couldn;t wait to get out of this place. "You got any idea when they'll let me out?" (NT) -- Andre, 11:02:21 02/12/07 Mon
• She smiled down at him warmly from her perch still on the edge of the bed. "Don't be so silly, I'm not doing this because I feel like I have to. I'm doing it because I want to." With that, she offered her smile down to Aaron who was still settled contentedly on her lap, chewing his fist and drooling up a storm on it, and patted a hand over his hair and down his back protectively. "The doctors said you're healing fairly well... they figure another week and they'll be able to consider you for discharge... after that, who knows." (NT) -- Ais, 11:49:57 02/12/07 Mon
• He nodded a little at that, letting out a heavy breath and smiling a touch as he closed his eyes "I can not wait to be out of this room... you have no idea..." It was driving him crazy being in these four walls. "You'd you figure you're gonna like me with a bald head then?" He'd previously had pretty long shaggy blonde hair- though they had shaved it all off for his brain surgery. "I can be like a sexy thug or something..." (NT) -- Andre, 11:52:46 02/12/07 Mon
• She smiled at him, and in a moment of tenderness reached out to cup his cheek lightly, mindful of the wounds that were healing. "I don't care if you're bald for the rest of your life." And then the moment flitted away and she grinned teasingly. "But I may need to buy you a tuque to wear so I don't go blind from the glare." She laughed a bit and picked Aaron up to turn him over so he was laid with his chest against her chest on her shoulder, as he yawned a bit, and rubbed his back soothingly. "I can't wait to get you out of here, so I can give you a proper hug, and kiss you without worrying about a nurse coming into the room." (NT) -- Ais, 12:07:02 02/12/07 Mon
• He smirked a little bit at her comment "Then I'd be like a real thug..." His hair had always grown pretty fast- which was mainly why it was so shaggy all the time. He watched her with his son, smirking again and marveling at how natural she was with him "I know... and eat food thats bad for me... not that i think that any of the food they make me eat here is actually good for me- but you know..." (NT) -- Andre, 12:17:02 02/12/07 Mon
