Realistic or Modern The Beginning of the End

[DrTrollinski]

"You are indeed. You're going to be the Beauty Queen when you're older. Prettiest girl in the whole town." He smiled at her, and then laughed when she 'took' his nose. "You've taken my nose, eh? Well. It looks like I'm going to have to get that back." He grinned and then gently pushed her down onto the bed, and with that he started to tickle her - he didn't do it strongly; just enough for her to be able to feel it. (@DryPunishment)

"Well, you never know. There's a chance we drove past you once. Me and my old family used to do a lot of travelling." He chuckled. "Hell, we might have even seen you when we had to stop into the service stops to get Carl to the bathroom. He had a habit of needing to go while we were in the car." He laughed a little and shrugged. ".. Regardless of that, I mean... I guess you could say all this ain't so bad, if you can ignore the mutated dogs, the people that want to shoot you, and the undead." He grinned. "If it wasn't for this, I wouldn't have met you - that would suck." He chuckled. (@Soul OMU)


 
(For Christ sakes. This keeps breaking on me D


 
"Eh, he'll make that, or some kind of broth." Kendrik said. "You want to help me gather some water while he's doin' that? We're runnin' low on unbottled stuff, so we should get it and boil it up while it's early." He said. (@The J)

Jenna smiles a bit. "I suppose so but I doubt we would have met outside of this whole thing.." She said while blowing at her bangs and beating him.

 

[Aldur]

"The whole town? You mean the whole universe."


Alex started to tickle her. She laughed and tried to cou ter-attack by softly sqeezing his wrists and kept her knees up.


"It's my nose now,Alex! You'll never have it back! Never!"

[DrTrollinski]

".. You never know. It's a small world. You might have come to one of my concerts at some point. You know, when I got rich and famous?" He laughed - it was obvious he only meant it as a joke when he nudged her shoulder. He lost the game, which really sucked, but he didn't care. He let her win.


Sort of.


".. Eh. I wouldn't consider that a valid win." He laughed. "I was distracted with talking to you. Was that your trick?" He winked at her. The sound of footsteps coming down the stairs was heard in a very rapid manner. (@Soul OMU)

"You can keep my nose, but that means I'm going to have to take yours!" He laughed as he shot one hand down and gently grabbed her nose. Then he moved his hand away and pretended to stick the 'taken' nose back in place of his 'missing' one. "Now you're gonna' be stuck with my nose, and I get to keep your pretty little one. Aren't I lucky?" He laughed and gradually stopped tickling her, followed by lying flat down on her bed. He was still being playful, evidently. He smiled while he closed his eyes and lied perfectly still. (@DryPunishment)

 

[Aldur]

"Turns out you can't handle my pretty nose."


If looks could kill...Alex wasn't moving.


"Alex?"


She tugged his shirt and shook him a little.


"Alex?"


@DrTrollinski

 

[DrTrollinski]

A grin slowly spread across his face and he quickly reached down and swept her up with a quiet roar - he set her down so she was lying on top of him and they were both face-to-face.


".. I don't think I'm pretty enough to have your nose, so what we'll do..." He smiled as he reached up with both hands. One hand went to Caitlyn's nose, and the other went to his own - he made a pulling motion, ".. We'll have to swap those back." He swapped his hands over and tapped one against Caitlyn's nose, and the other against his own. "And once again, we have a beautiful girl who has the right nose this time." He smiled warmly and then hugged her gently with one arm, alongside giving her a soft kiss on her forehead. (@DryPunishment)

 

[Aldur]

She giggled and looked at him,then Caitlyn leaned the side of her head on his chest.


"I like you,Alex!"


She closed her eyes and enjoyed the moment. He was warm.


@DrTrollinski

 

[DrTrollinski]

He smiled. "Well. I like you, too, sweetheart. It's an absolute joy to take care of you." He slowly sat up and sat her in his lap - he continued hugging her, this time holding her close with both arms. It meant quite a lot for her to say something like that, even if it was so simple. It still had meaning and heart behind it, and that's what was most important. He bowed his head and kissed the top of her head. ".. You know that me and Hunter will always be here for you, okay? If you ever need something, or if you ever want to talk, you know where to find me." He chuckled a little under his breath and squeezed her gently in the hug. (@DryPunishment)

 

[Aldur]

"I know,Alex. I like Hunter too."


She looked at him and after he got up she asked him.


"What are Eric and Carl doing?"


She wondered if they wanted to play hide and seek and maybe she could gather a big group to play with.


That would be very fun. Just around 10 or more people having fun toghether sounded like the best idea ever. Probably better than the hairdryer.


@DrTrollinski

 

[DrTrollinski]

".. I'm not sure what Eric and Carl are doing, honey... If you want, I could walk you to the park and see if there's any other kids there. Hunter's still not feeling very well, so I don't think she'll be coming with us." He sighed and stroked her hair. ".. I know there's not dozens of kids here, but I'm sure the ones that are here don't have anything to do right now, so they'll probably play. We can go and knock on Tom's door and see if Carl wants to come out as well, if you'd like." He offered while standing up from the bed and stretching his back. (@DryPunishment)

 

[Aldur]

"That would be great!" She looked at him and nodded.


"Let's see what Carl is up to!"


(@DrTrollinski God dang it's back again!)

 

[DrTrollinski]

".. Okay. I'll gather up some snacks and water to take with us." He said, he walked her out of the room and then stopped in the hallway; he looked over his shoulder towards his and Hunter's room and called out. "Hunter! I'm just gonna' take Caitlyn to the park, okay, honey?!" He yelled. He walked downstairs and packed up a backpack with food and water seeing as it was quite a hot day. He took Caitlyn to knock for Carl, but he couldn't come out because he was still in his PJ's and hadn't bathed yet. That was okay, there was quite a few kids at the park anyway, so Alex took Caitlyn to play with them. (@Soul OMU, @DryPunishment - I summarized it because I need to paint some stuff in my room. That'll give you a chance to recover from the writer's block.)

Jenna laughs softly as she nudged his shoulder back. "Riiiight. Of course that was my master plan all along." She said while grinning and looking back over the couch. (@DrTrollinski)


 
Hunter throwing up, coughs slightly. "Y-Yesh! Go do that." She said as she managed to speak before throwing up against (@DrTrollinski)

 

[DrCompton]

Tom jerked a little when she poked him, he was ticklish. He smiled, "Yeah, guess I am pretty lucky I have you huh?" He winked. "Alright, I think I've gotten everything I want." His shopping cart was filled with movies, videogames, candy, and popcorn. Nothing important." Tom looked at Scarlet, "So I may have lied, and just wanted to spend a little bit of time with you, is that a bad thing?" He grinned, "We should get back, I have a tingle thats telling me Eric needs saving."

 

[StarrySkyofLostSouls]

Scarlet rolls eyes and smiles a bit. "Yes sooo lucky. Also just a bit... Since he knows that you lied... You should have just told him that." She said as she walked with him. (@DrTrollinski)

 

[DrCompton]

"I did! I told him we were shopping, I didn't tell him what we'd be getting, is this not shopping? And actually, now that I think about it, we need towels. The ones in my closet, I swear to god smell like dog piss, every single one. I want new ones." He guided them to the towel section. "Oh, do you wanna hear his plan? Its pretty romantic, I think."

 

[StarrySkyofLostSouls]

Scarlet rolls her eyes a bit and snorts as she follows him. "No keep it a surprise. Anyways let's hurry up to save Eric." She said while blowing at her bangs. (@DrCompton)

 

[DrCompton]

Tom shrugs and grabs nice fluffy towels and throws them in. The two start to walk back with the cart filled with goodies and towels. He stopped and looked around, a chill ran down his back. He shivered a little, then kept walking, frowning.

 

[StarrySkyofLostSouls]

Scarlet walking with him, blowing at her bangs while following him. "Because this is so much fun and exciting..." She said while looking at him.

 

[DrTrollinski]

Carl had pestered Jenna and Eric once Caitlyn had come by. He wanted to have a bath - usually Eric left that for Tom to do, but Carl wouldn't shut up about it. This just pissed Eric off extremely. He didn't say anything to Carl or Jenna, but it was clear that he was irritated by the fact that he was having to play this role. He finally got Carl in the bathtub, but then he had to help him wash his hair which was just getting irritating. He got it done, though.


".. Watch Carl for a minute..." Eric muttered to Jenna - Carl was just playing with his toys in the bath and not taking what was going on around him. Eric went back to his room and closed the door over a minute and looked around - he looked at his guitar. The others were in the spare room. He wanted to play but he felt too stressed to do that. He collapsed onto the bed and put his face in the pillow with a quiet and long groan. It certainly was taking them a long time to get the stuff Tom said he was going to get. (@Soul OMU)

 

[DrCompton]

Tom looked at her, "Are you saying my shopping date was boring?" He gave her poppy dog eyes, "I tried really hard setting all that up!" He smiled a little, "I promise I'll come up with a better date to take you on, okay?"

 

[DrTrollinski]

(And then suddenly there was silence.)

 

[StarrySkyofLostSouls]

(Sorry I'm in class)


Jenna sitting by the bath with Carl, watches Eric go and sighs softly as he leaves.


Scarlet snorts as she walks with him. "Hurry up so we can go." She said while putting a hand on her hip. (@DrTrollinski, @DrCompton)

 

[DrTrollinski]

(Np)


Carl leaned onto the side of the bathtub, his body covered in bubbles for the most part. His longish hair was soaking wet and hung heavy at the sides of his head. He looked at Jenna and then rested his head into his crossed arms, his eyes running across her several times over. ".. Jenna--.. Do you think Eric still likes me?" He asked softly. (@Soul OMU

Alex went over to Caitlyn who he'd left playing with the other kids in the park. There were other parents sat here and supervising, so Alex came up with something seeing as he was exceptionally worried about Hunter. He crouched down in front of Caitlyn and stopped her for a moment. "Caitlyn, honey... I want to go back to the house to check on Hunter. Do you think you'll be okay here with the other kids for a while? Doug's here if you need anything, and he's nice." He smiled as he nodded over to the father of two of the children that was sitting on one of the benches. (@DryPunishment)

 

[DrCompton]

"Im done, Im done, lets go." Tom pushed the cart as they walked back to his house. "So what do you want for dinner tonight?" He looked at her, "Think we should pick up some take out from the diner, then head back to my house, or should I ruin a home cooked meal for us? I can do either one, really." He grinned a little.
