Re: Tim/Alexis
"It's really those California types you have to look out for, but even the New Yorkers are a little strange sometime." He told her with a wink. And he chuckled when she mentioned the guns and Texas. "See the thing about Texans and their guns, we like shotguns, we keep 'em in the backs of our trucks, and over the fire place. We don't go around hiding them under our clothes, and they're not like the guns these guys use." He explained, and their guns were for hunting, they weren't usually for using on other people. "Well they say they're speaking English, I don't believe it though."
"One of these days we'll get you a good pair of boots so you can do the two step the way it was meant to be danced." He promised her. "They really do help, until then I'll to my best not to step on your feet."
He hadn't really meant to get into this place, where he'd have to explain the time between high school and ending up there. All that time when he probably would have been dancing and doing all those normal things people did, that he'd missed out on because he'd been in jail. "Well I danced some, just not at a big occasion like this, s'what I meant." He explained. "As far as I know the girls aren't blind, but I never asked, so I suppose it's possible." He grinned, ready to move past this part of the conversation. Derek was still the only person he'd told, he wasn't ready to tell anyone else about that - he wasn't sure he'd ever be ready for that.
