It was cold. Or, it was cold to Shay. So she had the windows shut tight and she quickly bolted into her room and onto her bed. What wasn’t cold for others was cold to her. After all, sixty degrees in southern Florida? Yeah, it was freezing for them damn near. She quickly pulled her deep purple fleece blanket around her shoulders and snuggled back against her headboard as she pulled her laptop in her lap. Flicking it on, she fully intended to use it as a personal lap heater to help her stay warm.
As the computer came to life she went through her routine, bringing up her winamp media player and selecting a playlist, and then moving on to Skype. And then, as soon as Skype came up and she saw her cousin Trip on? Well, that decided what she was going to be doing tonight. It had been years since she’d seen him face to face. Probably not since their grandmother had died. And, well, they’d always had a… different relationship.
Shay fluffed her hair (which was held back by a simple headband) and glanced at her closed door. Either Tommy was out or asleep in the spare room. Either way… She took in a deep breath and pressed the ‘call video’ button. As it rang she started to fiddle with the necklace she wore which just happened to be one Trip had given her years before. And then the screen popped up and there he was. “Hey there, good lookin’.” she said, letting her accent roll of her tongue as if she hadn’t been living in Florida for years.
