Lucas had spend some time in the library and was now taking a walk around the place. He was hoping to find some way to get back to Gilmore. He didn't think he would but he hoped he figured that he should at least try.

He stuffed his hands in his pockets and walked down by the lake. He looked out on the lake and watched the waves lap for a few moments.

	"Sure, we can do that. Do you have mittens at your place? I can just wash my hands in your bathroom." Layla stated softly, she was a little nervous about going to his place. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I think I do have mittens," he said. "And you're welcome to use my bathroom." They reached his door and he opened it. He pulled off his shirt after he'd walked in the door. He threw it somewhere and turned to her. "Bathroom is through there," he said, pointing to the left. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Layla watched him with wide eyes. Her mouth was working, but her brain wasn't catching up so fast. "Huh?" Layla asked, "bathroom? Where, oh, um right, through there. Got it." Layla walked into his bathroom as if she was stunned. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He grabbed a wife-beater, t-shirt and hoodie and put them all on. He grabbed some gloves too and slipped them on. He grabbed her some mittens and waited for her to come out of the bathroom. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Layla looked everywhere, but at him. "I um, I... yeah, thank you for letting me use your bathroom." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Here," he said handing her the mittens. "You're welcome," he said. "You OK?" he asked when she wouldn't look at him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh golly, thank you. Um what? Oh, um yeah, fine." Layla nodded taking the mittens, but would only sort of look at him through her lashes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You're welcome," he said. He really really wanted to kiss her but he was worried about why she wasn't looking at him fully. He wondered if he'd done or said something wrong. "So, will we head to your place now?" he asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Layla shook the mittens he had given to her at him with a bright smile. "No ne-need anymore. Is it hot in here?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh yeah, sorry," he said. "No it's not. You want me to get you some water?" he asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	laylawilliams 2009-01-27 07:48 pm UTC (link)
	Layla looked at him slightly slack jawed and nodded, "Uh huh, yeah." Her voice kind of broke slightly as she looked at him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He walked to the kitchen and got her a glass of water. He came back out and handed her the glass. "You wanna sit down for a while?" he asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Layla took a big gulp of water and looked at Lucas. "Um, I...well, I don't know? May be. I think I am OK. May be." Layla said softly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"OK, well then we can go for that walk in the snow," he said smiling at her. He leaned in and kissed her cheek before he realized her had. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Layla blinked wildly when he kissed her cheek, her hand went to her cheek before she knew it. "Uh huh, sure." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He walked out of his place and offered her his arm again. He stood closer to her this time. She smelled incredible. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Layla stood in shock there for a few minutes, then she slipped the mittens on and looked at him. "All right, all right, sure." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	luke_scott22 2009-01-27 08:06 pm UTC (link)
	He looped his arm with hers and started to walk. There were so many things he'd like to do with her and to her. He felt this incredible attraction to her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"So? What do you want to talk about? Ever watch Firefly? Read any good books?" Layla was stammering as she spoke to him. Her cheeks were a bright red, and her heart was hammering in her chest. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	luke_scott22 2009-01-27 08:11 pm UTC (link)
	"I don't think I've ever seen Firefly and I've read lots of good books. I wrote and am having a book published too." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	laylawilliams 2009-01-27 08:13 pm UTC (link)
	"Wow, really? What is it about? I've read a lot of good books too." Layla smiled seeing that they had something in common. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Honestly, it's about me. Me and the people who influenced my life. Yeah? I love to read. It's one of my favorite things to do." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Wow, you must be super talented? That is amazing. So, tell me more about the man I just met and his book and what about his life that he wrote? I am intrigued." Layla said with a broad smile, her eyes were twinkling and her cheeks were flushed. "Seriously, I am intrigued." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Heh heh. I don't know about that," he said. He looked at her and smiled when she asked about his him and his life.

"You really want to know more about me?" he asked.

"OK, well where do I start? OK, well my father didn't want me to be born. He asked my mom to get rid of me. He took no part in raising me. My mom raised me with the help of my Uncle Keith. I have a half-brother Nathan and we grew up hating each other. We both ended up on the same basketball team and he put me try some crap like stealing my clothes and towel so I had to walk down the corridor with just two basketballs covering me and other stuff like that. Then my best friend Haley started to tutor him to get him to leave me alone and they ended up falling for each other. They are married now and have a baby together. I fell for two girls in High School and I guess half the book is about one and half the book is about the other. I'm not with either of them now and I don't think I'll ever be with either of them again. They are still my friends and I love them both but as friends. The hardest part to write was the school shooting. That was the day I lost.... I lost my Uncle Keith. An old friend took some of my friends hostage in the school. He shot Peyton in the leg and he shot himself. And for a while I thought he'd shot my Uncle but he hadn't. My father had done that. Keith... he was going to adopt me and marry my mom," he said pausing for a moment to compose himself.

"He left me with a baby sister, Lily. When I was in High School I found out I have a genetic heart defect called HCM. In my senior year I had a heart attack and Keith came to me. He showed me what things would be like if I had been a lesser person and to open my eyes to what happened that day which helped me figure out that it was Dan. Then after High School I went to Gilmore and became the Coach of the Cobras."

He looked at her like when he'd finished speaking.

"So, you want to tell me about your life?" he asked.

"Well, I think you, so indulge me, pretty please?" Layla batted her eyes at him and smiled warm and encouraging.

"Yes, I really do. So, spill!" She said all full of enthusiasm.

"At the beginning, middle or end, I don't mind." When Lucas began speaking, Layla really listened, she was truly interested in him. When he spoke about his father she bit her lip and looked at him wide eyed. "I'm so sorry to hear that, but I am glad you were and I bet your mother, best friend and family all are, I sure am glad you were." Layla said, trying to be helpful. "Ouch," she said when he mentioned what his brother and teammates did, knowing full well how other teammates can be truly evil. Layla gulped pretty audibly when he mentioned having to walk around naked with two basketballs, her mind going back to him being topless earlier. "Uh huh," she sounded rather strained when she replied to that comment. "Well, it all worked out for the best right, and well, true love is an amazing and beautiful thing. It usually comes at the wrong time and between the weirdest people and set of circumstances, but it is amazing nonetheless. Right?" Layla hip checked him with a smile when she asked that question.

"Oh, wow, they are very lucky girls and that is nice, that you are still friends." She gasped hard when he mentioned the old friend, people being shot and his uncle/father being killed. "Oh. OH! Oh honey, I am so sorry. I really am." Without thinking, Layla pulled him close and enveloped him in a hug. "He is still with you, they both are, they always will be. I am so very sorry for your loss." She rubbed his back and made soothing sounds to help facilitate the general goodness she was trying to share with him. "Oh, see, a baby sister, she is one lucky duck to have such an amazing brother and mentor. I mean, you seem to be quite the catch and I am sure she and many other look up to you. You are an amazing coach, your passion for the game really showed in how you taught those guys on the team." Layla nodded emphatically, to add to her points. "I mean, see your father, I mean uncle came back and showed you how wonderful and generous of heart you are, right? even if it is flawed, it is still a good heart. To have someone so special come back and show you, now I am going to make sure you eat right, and take care of yourself while we are here, because someone has to." Layla felt this kinship to the guy, she had no clue why? He just felt close and right, she also looked him up at college, trying to figure him out. Layla never got a chance to talk to him so she had to try and find out things about him, like an email address, but once she had it she chickened out. "Me? I well, I am not nearly as interesting as you. I love plants, I want to get my PH. D to fabricate an organic food program that is both cheap and easy to deal with for small and big families, especially people on welfare, single moms and so forth. I, Uh went to a special school for special people to learn how to harness our gifts. Almost like a military school that taught us how to ride a motorcycle and stuff like that,. boring stuff that." Layla tried to pass it off as something insignificant, because then she would have to get into her powers. I love to swim, draw, sing, read books, grow all kinds of plants. I'm just a sidekick..." Layla said softly.
