Spending Time With Bella
Who: Ben and Skylar
Where: Their Home
When: 5/28, Evening
Skylar had just gotten back from seeing Rachelle (Ash can be as scary and emo as he wants, but she could literally pick him up and MOVE him if it came to it, not that he was at all) and was feeling shitty. She couldn't help it. Right now she was in Bella's room, sitting with her on the ground while Bella knocked her toy blocks around. Her baby was nine months old. Wow, they grew up fast. And she was already five months pregnant with another one. Pregnant enough to where it was starting to get awkward to manuver around and sit on the floor with her baby. After this baby was born, she was SO going on the shot or something stronger than just a pill, because it seemed that, once she HAD started taking that, Ben's little swimmers had sailed RIGHT through them. (And the mun just squicked herself RIGHT out with that statement.)
"Well. Check this out. I came to find you with the intent of being all perverse but... if this isn't about the cutest thing I've ever seen." Ben grinned as he leaned against the doorframe, watching her play with the baby and just... thanking the lord that he finally had her. "How was your visit? Any change yet in Rachelle?"
"You better be glad she doesn't understand most of what we say still," Skylar said with a good natured grin as she looked at him over her shoulder. "And maybe in a bit, as far as being perverse." She stayed on the floor, since it was a pain in the ass to get up. "Rachelle's...stable, I guess. Nothing's changed, for good or bad." She pushed some of Bella's hair out of her face as the baby looked intently at her toys as she tried to stack her blocks. "I can't STAND not knowing what the hell did this to her."
"I'm so sorry, baby..." He purred in his most soothing voice. He knew that his ability to comfort her during anything was one of her favorite things about him. "She's family now, and anything she needs, we'll make sure she has."
Skylar sighed. "I know. I'm just praying that she'll wake up soon, talk to us, and tell us that everything is alright." She hated the lameness of how that sounded, but it was true. She just wanted her friend to get up and be back to normal.
"Would it help if I said I'm just as worried as you? Because I am." He admitted with a sheepish grin. "She managed to punch her way into all of our hearts." He reached down, whispering. "Need a hand getting up? Looks like someone could use a hug."
"It actually does help a little," Skylar said, smiling up at him. She offered him her hand. "Here. Never should have gotten down here in the first place."
"I love you, Skylar. And every day I find more to love. Seeing you so concerned for a friend... That's just something else." He slowly pulled her to her feet, grinning wickedly. "You know, you really redefine MILF, darling." Come on. He went THIS long without being sexual, that should count for something!!!
"Well, I think Rachelle might have been one of the first friends I made in LA, which is even sadder than it sounds." While friendly, she didn't make friends easily. Most women found her aloof, which they mistook for snobbish. She smiled at him. "And I am a MILF. I already knew that."
"You really ARE the sexiest woman I've ever met..." He laughed with a shake of his head. "We'll get through this. All of it. Our love is powerful enough to overcome all." This was Ben? BEN? Really?
"I know we'll get through this," Skylar said. She sighed. "It's just a matter of actually getting through it, I guess." She looked up at him. "I love you."
"And I love you. But then..." He chuckled with a hint of embarrassment. "I guess you've ALWAYS known that. But that doesn't make it less true. And even if you end up falling into depression again... Once again I'll be here to pull you out."
"Well, now the doctors know what to look for in case it happens again," she said to him. "Plus, I know you'll be there for me." And he just might not quite know just how much she appreciated the fact that he had been there for her when no one else was.
"I'd give up my very life to give you happiness." And then? Because he literally COULDN'T stay serious for long, "although.. I can think of much better ways to make you happy.."
The last part made her laugh. "I'm sure you can think of plenty of ways to make me happy," she said to him.
