Monstrosity

   "I guess I was a good guesser, I just saw it and thought it was cool myself."

Just sitting there with Aaron Sam felt bad with the words he spoke. How crappy must life be to think she really was pretending? How many people had hurt Aaron to have him, have a hard time believing someone really did care.

Getting up from the floor and hearing the invitation Sam wondered over to the little table and sat down. Smiling she helped open the one end of the box.

   "I'm not pretending, by the way, to care, or being your friend. Only you can decide if you have something to live for or not as well."

She really wasn't even if this was her job. She did care what happened to Aaron, and she cared about his knee. She also did want to be his friend. 

Pulling out some of the bags from inside she read what they said and set them aside. She'd played with Legos before but nothing this major. It kind of felt overwhelming to her.

   "Ok, where do we start on this monstrosity."

Hearing her brother voice and Hunter pulling away Ryan tilted her head backward over the armrest to look at Eli and Scarlet with a grin. They had been caught red handed but she didn't mind too much. There were plenty of days when she had walked in on them smooching as well.

   "Make it a funny movie."

Looking back at Hunter and leaning forward to give him a quick kiss again Ryan pulled away and smiled just searching his face for a long moment running her fingers over his cheek, nose, and his eyes. It was amazing how two people came together. She had never really thought about it befoe but having Hunter here, now made her think of it. If month ago someone asked if she would be together with Hunter she would have told them, no, and yet here they were happy, content.

   "I'll try, but you are pretty comfortable Lumpy, I might be the one falling asleep."
