I aM tHe WaLrUs

[KERFUFFLE]

I love you, too. I hope you had a wonderful day

"Do you want me to? We both have to want to. I don't want you teasing me and then telling me you don't want me to," Asher chuckled, very distracted now, struggling to keep his eyes on the road, and shivering as a result of her kissing his neck.

 

[Bunny_grl07]

Ugh... Now that I'm home, I don't want to go back to school.

Lucy unbuttoned the first few buttons of his dress shirt, tracing her fingers along his exposed skin. "Of course I want you to," she whispered, smirking as she kept kissing his neck. "I can't resist you, you know."

 

[KERFUFFLE]

I understand that. But you'll be fine! Like I said, even I'm praying for you, and I'm more a Buddhist than anything else. And I don't believe they pray to anyone :L

Asher kept his concentration-- well, sort of-- until he'd found a suitable place to pull over at the side of the road. He turned off the engine and then turned towards her, unbuckling his seatbelt. "You make me go crazy, and do the craziest things," he murmured, chuckling softly, pulling her close to him.

 

[Bunny_grl07]

Thanks. I just feel like the homesickness will never go away. I'm so worried about going back.

Lucy unbuckled her own seat belt and wrapped her arms tightly around him, before giving him a passionate kiss. "I'm glad. I like being able to bring out the best in you!" She giggled, then undid a few more buttons of his shirt.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

You'll be fine once you get settled. Some people just take longer to adjust than others. You're pretty close knit, right? I am, too, so I reckon I'll be a lot like you. But you just have to stay positive and focus on the amazing opportunities you're getting!

"I like that you can do that, too. I wonder how I survived before you." Asher returned the kiss, his hand finding her thigh and just slipping slightly underneath the bottom hem of her dress.

 

[Bunny_grl07]

Today has been better than any of the other days I've been here. =)

Lucy laughed lightly, then rested her forehead against his, smiling in a teasing matter. She withdrew from him, then went and climbed into the back seat, humming a love song under her breath. She cast a glance at Asher, as if asking whether he objected to being in the back seats or not.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Excellent! You have no idea how happy that makes me =D

How was your weekend?

Asher watched her every move as she climbed into the back seat of the car. Their eyes met, and he then climbed in behind her; after all, it was the only place that really worked. He removed his aviators, setting them down under the front driver's seat. He then took her hand in his, brought it to his lips for a moment, still gazing at her, his eyes showing a passionate intensity and then pulled her into him, his lips meeting hers straight away.

 

[Bunny_grl07]

It was SO AWESOME to see my family again! I missed them so much! I still do, but I'm coping today. =)

Lucy wrapped her arms around him, letting out a soft sigh as they kissed, the happiness inside of her seeming to bubble up. She couldn't help feeling completely delighted that they were together again, and doing this of all things. In the back of her car. Well, there had to be a first time for everything, right? She moved, laying back across the seats, pulling him on top of her.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

That's great news Ahh, I'm so happy about that!

Asher almost felt like this was completely uncharacteristic of him. In fact, doing this at all, at home, in the bedroom, still sometimes felt like it wasn't like him at all to be doing these things. He was quiet, reserved, shy, reasonable, and yet he could be together with Lucy, let her seem him for all that he was, so easily. And now, in the most bizarre of places added to that. And maybe it would have bothered him, if she wasn't the right one, if she wasn't the perfect woman. But she was. Those things only made him happier. He slowly followed her, lowering himself down, and kissed her neck with a rough intensity, passionately.

 

[Bunny_grl07]

I'm so pumped for my voice lesson!!! I get to sing "Think of Me" from Phantom of the Opera. It has a high C in it! <3

I also get to sing "Green finch and Linnet Bird" from Sweeney Todd, and a song from Camelot. Not to mention my Italian pieces and art songs! =)

Lucy smiled at him adoringly, then let out an audible gasp as Asher placed his lips on her skin, once again surprised at how forward he was being with her. She reflected on how timid they had both been when their relationship had started. She hadn't felt love in over a year, she was still unsure about whether or not she could feel it again. He was very removed from other people, he had been very shy. And yet, they had been able to bring out the best aspects of each other. He'd taught her to smile again, to take risks again. And she'd brought out who he was inside-- at least, she liked to think she had. That made her feel more pride than she had ever felt in herself before, even with the pageant titles and prizes. They had been empty victories. But her love for him, the way she had reached out to Asher and helped him to grow, was the one thing she would die to protect and to win.

"I love you," she whispered weakly, tossing his shirt down to the floor of the car, then pressing against him willingly.

*skip*

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Well, I wouldn't be excited about a high C. More like dreading it xD

But that sounds amazing all the same. I'm amazingly jealous of you!

Lucy had set out the plan that they could arrive for lunchtime at Asher's parents' house. Of course, that would not be the case anymore; but they weren't being expected, and it didn't matter in any case. He pulled away slowly and rested his head in the crook of her neck while he caught his breath. "I love you so much," he whispered against her skin, caressing her cheek with his hand. She never ceased to amaze him. Never had being with her ever been less than exhilarating, beautiful, amazing.

 

[Bunny_grl07]

I love voice lessons. <3

How are you? Have you started school yet?

Lucy closed her eyes and whispered, "I love you too." She listened to the sound of the wind blowing outside, the distant traffic from the highway a couple miles away. She held him as close to herself as she could, planting a few kisses in his hair. Having him with her, especially like this, made everything she had been through before worth it. Asher had brought new meaning into her life, and every day they spent together got better and better.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

I'm great, thank you

Yeah, back in full swing since Monday. Didn't really feel like a new year. Carrying on from where we left off, no new teachers or books.. Not bad, though. It's been pretty hilarious xD

Asher sighed contently and gently rolled over onto his side, and pulled her close against his chest. He chuckled quietly, brushing a few strands of hair from her forehead affectionately as he said to her, "I dread to think what your father would think of me if he knew."

 

[Bunny_grl07]

Hilarious? Tell me more! =D

Lucy laughed lightly, then nuzzled her face into Asher's neck, planting a few butterfly kisses along his skin. "Yes, well, he doesn't know, nor does he have to, thank goodness. Besides, we're getting married, so anything that happens will be okay," she told him softly. Yes, if her father knew, he would be furious; he was extremely protective of his only daughter, and he always wanted her to be safe and happy. Plus, no boy was good enough for his baby girl. But he had told Lucy he would give Asher a chance, because he made her so happy. Of course, Lucy was relieved, and she hoped their initial meeting would go over well. At least she would have the support of Asher's family.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

There have been a couple of funny incidents.

Monday, first day back, we had History. We're learning about SA and Apartheid, which, of course, is great for me. Teacher says, "Okay, so how about some background information on South Africa." She then gestures to me and says, "Now, I know you'd know a lot, so we'll ask some other people first."

So by now I'd thought that most people would know I'm from there after.. Over four years at that school. But then suddenly I hear people just shouting out, "Why would she know so much?" I casually reply with, "I'm from there." And pretty much the whole class just bursts out and says, "Oh my gosh, really!?"

Then I'm bombarded with questions, so many people asked me to do the accent. Then, then next thing I hear, a girl who sits near me just shouts out, "Seriously! Can I touch you?!" Oh, gosh, it was so funny, she was being perfectly serious xDD

I'm trying to remember some of the others.. I'll tell you later xD

"He definitely won't be finding out. Are you sure he even likes the idea of it after we're married?" Asher chuckled, tilting his head back a bit, letting her kiss his skin, shivering at the sensation. "I really hope he likes me, you know. I mean, you're all that really matters, but a good family relationship is definitely good, too." His parents already loved Lucy, and could probably care less about whether he'd slept with her or not-- they knew he'd never do anything stupid or try to hurt her. "Still, I think I should tell you, it was wonderful."

 

[Bunny_grl07]

xDDDD LOVE IT! That reminds me of Mean Girls

I'll be back in a while, I'm just now able to get some lunch!

Lucy said, "I think he'll like to imagine that neither of us have bodily functions, and that we simply like to hug when we retire for the night. Of course, that'll only be partially true, but let him have his own ideas." She laughed then reassured him, "I think he'll like you. Besides, my father was a world war two veteran, so he already gives you some respect. But that also means he's going to expect a lot from you, okay? So we'll have to keep our behavior moderate in front of him..." She cuddled closer to him, letting out a soft sigh of content. "It really was, Asher. I never thought I would actually do something like that, but... well, I'm glad that we did."

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Oh yeah! xD I didn't even think of that.

That's alright, see you in a bit

Asher smiled in amusement and said, "Well, we can let him think that, for a few years. After that, we'll have to convince him that the stork really did bring us his grandchild," he said, laughihg quietly. "Well, I can only hope you're right. And, of course, I expected nothing less. I know you and I will have to behave ourselves." He smirked at her, then planted a quick kiss on her lips. "I know. Pretty reckless, even for us. I can't quite believe it happened, but I loved every moment."

 

[Bunny_grl07]

I'm so happy, I finally got to eat! And it's Friday, and classes are over for the day!!! =D

Lucy laughed and said, "Well, I don't know how we'll be able to get him to ignore my huge tummy and mood swings when I'm pregnant. I mean, it would be impossible to hide." She laughed louder, then ran her fingers through Asher's hair. "I'm glad that you and I can talk about our intimacy and possible future together so... openly. I mean, I never thought I'd have these kinds of conversations with anyone, really." She ran her fingers along his chest idly, then reached down to the floor and grabbed her dress. Slipping into her clothes again wasn't too hard, and she smiled at Asher. "Hopefully it won't be obvious what we pulled over to do."

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Anything interesting that you ate?

Ah, awesome! Weekend <3

"Okay, an immaculate conception, then," Asher teased. "And I'm glad, too. Honestly, talking about marriage and babies were the last things I imagined myself talking to anyone about. But jist the thought of it now gets me excited." Sitting up and slipping back into his clothes-- thankfully, they weren't as badly creased as he feared they may be-- he smiled adoringly at her and climbed into the driver's seat. "I hope so, too," he chuckled, "But it would still be totally worth it."

 

[Bunny_grl07]

eh, not really. I had pizza and a sandwich and a couple brownies

Lucy climbed into the passenger's seat, and made sure she buckled her seatbelt. Then, she continued talking with her fiance, taking one of his hands in her own. "Your hand and mine go perfectly together! It's an amazing feeling, knowing that you are mine, and I am yours." She looked up at Asher adoringly, before stealing his sunglasses and putting them on herself, grinning.
