Who: Leanne, Roger and Brighton
When: Backdated to last night
Where: Roger's place
What: Dinner Delivery
Rating: TBD

Leanne made dinner again. This time she took broccoli and put it in with the mac and cheese, along with the hot dogs. That way she wouldn't have to make an extra salad on the side, and she could focus on dessert. She made brownies this time, with little chocolate candies in them. It was a very good meal.

The wine they'd shared the last time was gone by now. Sometimes when she was alone at night, Leanne turned to wine for comfort. She needed a bit of comforting lately, as she kept seeing Katie in the halls at St. Mungo's. So, anyway, Leanne picked up a new bottle of wine, and a bottle of sparkling apple juice, then headed over to Roger's place.

She hoped he remembered she was coming. She knocked on the front door.

	Leanne beamed. She sipped from her glass, then set it back down as she continued eating. She was actually really looking forward to those brownies, probably as much as Brighton was. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Lisa used to cook for us," Brighton said frowning, "But she stopped coming over." Roger's jaw clenched. Brighton hadn't talked about Lisa's absence yet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh?" Leanne had no idea who Lisa was or why she'd stop coming around. She didn't see Roger's jaw clench. "I'm sorry to hear that. Were you two close?" She asked Brighton. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"She was my babysitter, but then she just stopped visiting. I dunno why. She sent me a present, but she hasn't babysat in a while. Dad just owls Nana." What could Roger say? He couldn't exactly tell his small son 'sorry I shagged your babysitter and now it's too awkward.' (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Oh, well, I'm sorry that you haven't seen your friend in a while." Leanne said. She was very curious. She glanced over at Roger, to see if his face betrayed anything.

"But maybe she'll come back around. I mean, how could anyone want to stay away from you for long?" She gave Brighton a grin. "You're far too much fun to be around."

Then she reached for the brownies.

	"Maybe she's very busy," Roger said. "Yeah," Brighton sighed and took a brownie, "Maybe she's got to clean her room." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Leanne gave a nod and picked up a brownie for herself, then slid the plate over toward Roger. "I know when I have to clean my room, it takes me a long time." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Roger ate his brownie quietly, trying to figure out if he should contact Lisa or hope Brighton became smitten with Leanne's cooking and forgot. The second option was the easiest. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Leanne started in on her brownie. It was good. She'd stuck little M&Ms in them, and the extra chocolate and crunch of the candy shell made them quite a bit more interesting. "Do you like the brownies?" She asked Brighton, eager to see his reaction. She'd made them for him, afterall. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"They're great," Brighton said, once again with his mouth full. Roger nodded. "Mmhmm." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_flitterbl615 2009-10-10 02:34 am UTC (link)
	Leanne gave a laugh. "I can tell you like it. The talking stopped." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	learnedinthelaw 2009-10-11 01:23 am UTC (link)
	"I love them." He took another. Roger would have to be careful how many e ate. He had to watch his girlish figure. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_flitterbl615 2009-10-11 02:31 am UTC (link)
	"Would you believe I made them from scratch?" She asked, breaking into a grin at Roger taking another. "Never thought I had it in me." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	learnedinthelaw 2009-10-12 02:43 am UTC (link)
	"Well, I wouldn't expect them to sell something this decadent in a store," he said. "What's deck-dent?" Brighton asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_flitterbl615 2009-10-12 05:07 pm UTC (link)
	Leanne grinned, turning to Brighton. "It means... luxurious. Or self-indulgent. Delicious." She gave Roger a grin, then turned back to Brighton. "What word would you use to describe the brownies?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	learnedinthelaw 2009-10-13 02:28 am UTC (link)
	"Yummyful," he said before taking a big, snarly bite. Roger snorted. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_flitterbl615 2009-10-13 03:08 am UTC (link)
	Leanne gave a little laugh. "That's the best word I can think of." She said, grinning to Brighton. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Brighton washed his brownie down with cider. "So what're we gonna do now?" He asked. He was hoping it wasn't near his bed time, but of course, it was. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Leanne glanced at her wristwatch and then to Roger. "I don't know if we have time to do much else, little buddy." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	learnedinthelaw 2009-10-13 03:41 am UTC (link)
	"My bed time sucks," Brighton said. "Hey, what did we decide about that word?" "It's not nice." Brighton huffed. "Will you read to me then?" Brighton asked Leanne. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_flitterbl615 2009-10-13 03:52 am UTC (link)
	Leanne grinned softly. "Maybe we could have your dad clean up the dishes, and I'll go with you to read you a story?" She said, giving Roger another smile. Then she stood from her chair. "C'mon, let's go brush our teeth." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	learnedinthelaw 2009-10-13 05:10 pm UTC (link)
	"Alright. Remember your molars too, okay buster?" Roger cleared the table and started washing the dishes while Leanne and Brighton left the room. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_flitterbl615 2009-10-13 05:17 pm UTC (link)
	"We won't forget." Leanne said, grinning, as she led Brighton down the hall toward the bathroom. "I love brushing my teeth." She said to the boy. "I always feel so clean afterward." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	learnedinthelaw 2009-10-13 05:21 pm UTC (link)
	Roger listened the the voices from down the hall as he cleaned up dinner. It was good for Brighton to have a female influence. Roger knew he wouldn't be nearly as charming if his father had raised him alone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The two went to the bathroom to brush their teeth--Leanne conjured a toothbrush for herself, and borrowed some of his toothpaste--then to his bedroom. She waited in the hall so he could get his pajamas on in some privacy, then she stepped into the room to read him a story. "What do you want to hear tonight?" She asked, taking a seat on his bed.
