Leah couldn't help but feel a blush spread across her face when she felt his hands on her hips. Thankfully, by the time she'd faced Mrs. Quinn, the blush had gone down to a slight pink. She waved at Mrs. Quinn, the gesture sending a short shot of pain up her arm, but she ignored it. She took Eric's hand and walked over to Mrs. Quinn. "Hello, Mrs. Quinn."

Eric felt Leah take his hand, and intertwined his fingers with hers, giving her hand a slight squeeze before the beaten pair stepped forward, towards the woman, who was watching them cheerfully.
"Hello, hello! Glad to see you're up and awake Leah. I was going to check on Eric, when I saw you two all tangled up with eachother!" She laughed joyusly, brushing a strand of her hair behind an ear. Swinging her legs down, she eyed the pair, and grinned as she saw Eric blush slightly.

by Guest Wed Nov 09, 2011 12:19 pm

Leah smiled at him. She blushed when Mrs. Quinn commented on them, and she chuckled. Leah couldn't take the smile off of her face, and she looked up to Eric, seeing the blush on his face. "Embarrased much?" Leah whispered to him, laughing. She turned back to Mrs. Quinn, noticing how nice Mrs. Quinn looked. Despite her age, she was always in good humour, and she didn't even make comments on either of their appearances. It made her feel secure and unjudged.

by Spritz Wed Nov 09, 2011 12:23 pm

Eric stiffly nodded. Though he wasn't ashamed to say that he was 'with' Leah, if someone asked, he wasn't to keen on having his adopted mother, Mrs.Quinn find them 'tangled up' with eachother. Who knows what she had thought they had been doing. At that thought, his cheeks flushed pink, and he brushed his dark hair, out of his equally dark eyes.
"Yall want icecream." Mrs.Quinn pointed out, and Eric let a small smile play on his lips. "You know me, us to well." Pam gestured to the freezer, then shook her head, standing up and walking past them, patting Leah gently on the shoulder. "I'm heading out for a bit, I'll see you two later. Be good now!"

by Guest Wed Nov 09, 2011 12:28 pm

Leah smiled and moved back a bit closer to Eric. She nodded at Mrs. Quinn's comment, smiling at her gently when she patted her shoulder, which wasn't neccessarily comfortable, but she didn't care. Mrs. Quinn had good intentions, and that was all she needed to know. When she said 'be good' Leah's face flushed red, not having any idea (well, truthfully, she had a few ideas) what Mrs. Quinn was hinting towards. "All right, bye Mrs. Quinn!" Leah waved at her.

(OMG It's snowing out, the first snow of the year!!! D:)

Eric squeezed Leah's hand as Mrs.Quinn stepped out the back door, his face slightly flushed. He loved the woman dearly, but sometimes her personality made him a bit embarrased by the things she said. But, it was obvious she cared for the both of them with all of her heart, and he needed to thank her, once again for everything she had done.
Gently ushering Leah over to the freezer, he left her by the glass cover, before retrieving the icecream scooper and two waffle cones. "Strawberry?"

by Guest Wed Nov 09, 2011 12:41 pm

[ cool! ^^ it snowed here a while ago. About three days before Halloween. :D ]

Leah smiled and followed Eric over to the counter where he retrieved some cones and asked her if she wanted strawberry. "That'd be nice." Leah grinned and leaned leisurely on the counter. Thoughts of Mrs. Quinn floated thru her mind. She seemed really nice. She definately acted like a real mother around Eric: teasing him almost incessantly. Leah laughed quietly and shook her head good-humouredly.

by Spritz Wed Nov 09, 2011 12:44 pm

"Got it." He watched as Leah leaned back on the counter, and seemed to be thinking about something. He opened the freezer, greeted by a blast of fridgid air, and dug the ice cream scooper deep into the strawberry icecream. Scooping out the pink treat, he created a large cone, then gave it to Leah, before washing off the scooper and filling his own cone with the same as he had had last time, Butter pecan.

by Guest Wed Nov 09, 2011 12:51 pm

Leah smiled and took the icecream cone. She smiled and backed up a bit. The icecream tasted just as good as it had last time, but the strange fear taht Liam and Joseph would find her made her shudder. That is, after all, what happened the last time she'd had icecream. Especially icecream with Eric. Pushing the feeling away, she hoped that her father wouldn't be looking for her. She was sure he'd give her back to Matthew, and she couldn't predict what'd happen then.

Deciding it was best for the both of them to head into the back room, if only for the sole purpose of staying out of sight from any curious eyes, such as Leah's family, he directed her into a small room that was hidden behind the counter, through a doorway. He knew Mrs.Quinn used it for a lounge room, and it was filled with soft couches and pillows, perfectly comfortable. He closed the door behind them in case anyone came into the shop, then sat down on one of the couches and patted beside him for Leah to come and sit down also.

by Guest Wed Nov 09, 2011 1:01 pm

Leah followed him, glancing around the room that looked very plush and immensely comfortable. She sat down beside him, nearly sinking into the fluffy pillows of the couch. She rested just beside him, crossing her legs and smiling at him. She felt safer in here as she began to eat her icecream. Hopefully, this time, she'd actually get to finish it. "You're lucky," Leah commented casually.

by Spritz Wed Nov 09, 2011 1:05 pm

Eric smiled gently as Leah sat down beside him, and leaned forward, licking his icecream cone as it dripped slightly. Turning to Leah as he heard her words, he cocked an eyebrow, unsure of how he was supposed to react.
"Uhm.... I-... why do you say that?" He asked, working away at eating the ice cream, and the cone. "Oh, and I have to take you shopping. I have some old clothes here from the last time I stayed, but thier not going to due for you. And I dont want you going back to your house... for anything."

by Guest Wed Nov 09, 2011 1:10 pm

Leah shrugged, deftly pointing around the room with her hand. "You have this. You have Mrs. Quinn. You have a safe haven and somebody who loves you." Leah sighed quietly. "I don't." She shook her head, glad he'd changed subjects just in time.
"I wish I had my purse. I could take myself shopping if need be. But my purse is in my room somewhere." Leah groaned slightly. "It seems my whole life is in my room, and there's no way I'm ever going to be able to retrieve any of it."

[ sorry, busy, can only respond to one topic ]

by Spritz Wed Nov 09, 2011 1:13 pm

Eric gave a halfhearted shrug, setting his jaw, and while thinking, licked his ice cream cone. "You have it now." He said quietly, patting her knee with his hand. "I brought your bear," He admitted. "But that was it, nothing more. We'll get everything you need, but then get back to your room as soon as we can, ok?"

(There is snow everywhere! :( )

by Guest Wed Nov 09, 2011 1:17 pm

[ why the frown? i love snow! ]

Leah looked up at him and smiled, momentarily placing her head on his shoulder. She chuckled. "So, you went to my room? Pretty sad sight, wasn't it. My dad boarded up the window..." Leah grimaced and shrugged. "We don't ever have to go back to my room. I don't care. I can start from scratch, then pay you back once I have enough money. It'll work." Leah smiled and kissed his cheek tenderly.

by Spritz Wed Nov 09, 2011 1:21 pm

Eric nodded, grimacing slightly. It had been a sad sight. Finishing the cone, he set his jaw and looked at her, just as she kissed his cheek softly. Letting a small smile pass over his lips, he glanced at her face, stroking his thumb over her cheek gently. "You dont have to pay me back." He said softly, before leaning down and kissing her.

by Spritz Wed Nov 09, 2011 1:34 pm

(I'm going to go take care of some things and enjoy the snow for a little while)

by Guest Wed Nov 09, 2011 1:35 pm

Leah had just finished her own icecream, licking a few spare drops off of her fingers when she felt Eric's lips on hers. After the times they'd kissed, she felt as if none of them had ever been like this. She didn't know what exactly was making it different, but she assumed it was the fact that they were both safe with each other (and Mrs. Quinn) now. Without meaning to, Leah wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer.

[ okay, baiii :D have fun ^^ ]

by Spritz Wed Nov 09, 2011 3:16 pm

Eric smiled as she pulled him closer, his lips locked with hers. The feeling was enlightening, almost supernatural, and as he grinned wider, the dimples on his cheeks faintly appeared. Raising a hand, he rested it lightly on the side of her neck, tilting his head to get in closer to her, before parting his lips to take a breath, and covering her lips with his once again.

by Guest Wed Nov 09, 2011 3:26 pm

Leah's head felt light as he moved back to her. Leah pulled him closer, as he did the same with her, and she took a breath when he pulled back. Shortly after, though, he covered her lips with his again, and she greatfully kissed him back. She learned into him even more, slipping her tongue into his mouth almost without meaning to. It was more instinct than anything, but it felt so right, she didn't want to let go.

by Spritz Wed Nov 09, 2011 3:34 pm

Eric felt a shiver dance down his spine as her tongue slipped into his mouth, touching his. Lips locked together, he felt himself drifting out of reality, lost in the feeling of the passionate, gentle kiss that they were sharing with each other. Also, without meaning to, his own tongue slipped past her lips, but he pulled away gently, rather embarrased.

by Guest Wed Nov 09, 2011 3:40 pm

Leah was extremely comfortable, safe, and love. She whimpered unintentionally when she felt his tongue against hers. His taste was unique, but just as she was getting use to it, he pulled back. She opened her eyes a bit slowly, taking in his sight. Leah looked at him, taking in everything about him, her lips tingling. "T-that was am..amazing." Leah muttered queitly, blushing furiously.

by Spritz Wed Nov 09, 2011 3:43 pm

He was rather afraid she would be mad at him for pulling away so abruptly, but when she wasn't, Eric found himself with a beaming smile on his lips. Deciding to tease her, he put on one of his famous, mischevious grins. "You know it." Then, he leaned forward, but instead of kissing her, he pushed her down onto the couch, starting to tickle her sides.

by Guest Wed Nov 09, 2011 3:48 pm

Leah smiled back at him, her cheeks a rosy pink. She smiled and removed her hands from around his neck. Leah was expecting him to kiss her when he leaned himself forward, but instead, he pushed her back onto the couch. She laughed and kicked out gently. Leah put her hands on his chest and tried to push him off. "Get off me, Eric!" she said, through a veil of laughter.

by Spritz Wed Nov 09, 2011 3:53 pm

Eric's own laughter mingled with hers, the noised muffled slightly by the closed door. Eric persisted, his fingers working up under her shirt, but only on her waist, as he continued to tickle her torso. Only when he was afraid she wouldn't be able to breath did he stop, lying on top of her, his face flushed slightly, eyes twinkling with humor.
