Challenge: chicken
A/N: This is certainly not my best. I was feeling particularly uninspired this week. Oh well. No use crying over spilled milk. Gotta keep my chin up. You can't win them all. Better luck next time. Every cloud has a silver lining. Practice makes perfect. Rome wasn't built in a day. It's all water under the bridge now. You can't take it with you when you go. Did I miss any? :P
"Hey, Dean, we had chickenpox as kids, right?"
"Uh, yeah, I did. You didn't, though."
"What?"
"I caught'em from Kathleen Wells. Pretty eyes, good kisser. Totally worth it."
"Spare me the details. When was this?"
"During that summer Dad left you with Pastor Jim to study Latin. Guess you dodged the bullet. Why?"
"Look."
"Ha! Yep, that's chickenpox. Where could you possibly...?"
"That kid we saved from the Snee-Nee-Iq back in Pineville? He was covered in spots. I didn't think about until... where are you going?"
"Shopping for supplies... calamine lotion... oatmeal... oven mitts. You stay here. And don't scratch!"
