The Backyard

Woohoo, back yard!
*dribbles a soccer ball over to the far end of the yard*
I lay claim to those two trees as my goal.
En garde, ye invisible enemy players!
*starts playing soccer with invisible friends*

(Lidia's weird. Very. Weird.)
(And yes, it is possible for me to play soccer against myself.)

*lays in hammock*
*covers eyes with arm*
*snores*

-Throws football(soccer ball) from an unseen window that connects to the attic at Angelo for good measure-

*flips off hammock*
*glances around groggily*
WHAT THE HELL?!
*looks up*
Oh, hello Melanthios.

-Laughs-
Hello.

Might I inquire as to what reason you have for throwing a football at me while I sleep?
*lays on hammock again*
*puts arms behind head*

So that you may do the same to me, if you so choose when you are less tired.

That is if you can find me.

Sleep well, sir.

-Disappears again-

*raises an eyebrow*
Alright, then.
*closes eyes and snores*

*goes outside with Stefan*
*drops his hand and walks to sit on near by bench*

I'm sorry you had to hear that.

*runs through the yard faster than thought possible*

*hops up into her balcony*

*watches Jackie run by*

*thinks*
What is going on around here?

*sees her jump onto her balcony*

*comes to a halt before Nikki & Stefan*

*speaks out of breath*

Hey- um... *takes a deep breath*

*still speaks quite quickly*

You haven't seen or heard of two guys named Melan and JP have you? Are they here?

*shifts her weight*

*raises an eyebrow*

We conversed with them not an hour ago in the kitchen.

*facade breaks and a little hurt shows before putting it back up*

Why do you ask of them?

*is too one track minded to register Nikki's question*

Do you know where they are?

If my memory and hearing serves right,
they left soon after our conversation did.
I'm sure they will be back in a few days time.

*yells over her shoulder*

THAAANKS--- Sorry for interrupting.

*hears the faint voices of Daniella and Kale*
*runs to the workshop*

*sits up abruptly*
*flips hammock*
*curses inaudibly*
*walks around house to the courtyard*

*laughs softly at Angelo*

*looks at Stefan*

Do you want to have this picnic here?
Or else where?

*smiles*

*smiles*
I think this will be the perfect spot love.
*looks into eyes*
perfect indeed.

*blushes a bit*

Why are you so amazing?

*smiles and reaches up to kiss him*

*kisses Nikki softly*

Oh my love, I could ask you the same thing.
Tenfold. I'm not, and you are. Always will be.
My light, my song.

*blushes softly*

I.
This could be to soon to say.
We haven't know each other long but I feel it's been my whole life.

*takes a deep breath*

IthinkI'mfallinginlovewithyou.

*looks away*

*stops*
*blank look*
Oh. I understand. So much.
Nikki. Look at me.
*tilts head up*
I think I'm falling in love with you too.

*happiness*
*looks into eyes*
*smiles brightly*

I'm happy you came back.
I'm happy Rizzo pushed you to find me otherwise we might not have talked at all.
I never thought I would feel this way again since Je....

*stops*

*thinks*
I NEED to forget about him.
Stefan is who I want.
Who I need.
