Tyne walked out of the bathroom with a pale look on her face. She had the test in her hand holding her stomach gently. Fletch looked up at her with concern in his eyes. He walks over to her. He looks at the test then grins softly. " I'm pregnant again." she whispers. He purrs nuzzling her. He holds her close to him. " That's great." She sighs. " I just wish every one was here with us." He lifts her chin up. " Then let's go home." He hugs her gently.
After a few hours, Tyne got everyone to get their stuff together. Tyne had rented a van trading in the car she had used. She waited for her family to get loaded up. Lisa put Rufus in the back on top of his dog bed. Rufus falls asleep on his white paws. Tyne looks at them from the rearview mirror. Fletch takes her hand. " Let's go home." Tyne nods starting the engine up.
Raul was walking down the street of the gang's sector. He had his hands in his pockets. He went into the store looking around it. He avoided eye contact with the other people in it. One of them walked up to him. Raul turns around. " You that Tsukiyama's bitch?" he asked. Raul glares at him. " No I'm his friend there's a difference." He grabs Raul by the throat. " Tell your boss his payment that he owes us is late." He lets Raul go. Raul drops to his feet. " You will get it in good time." The figure growls. " We better or else everyone you know will die." Him and the others stormed out of the corner store.
Bastian waited for his client to show up finally. He saw a cream haired women approach him. Her red eyes look at him. " You find her yet?" she asked. He shook his head. " No ma'am both households were empty of the little brat." She shakes her head. " We need to find her soon. My husband has plans for her." Bastian nods in understanding.
A soft knock came at Zack's door. Zack gets to his feet. He answers it. He saw Dai standing behind it. " Excuse me sir." He bows. " May I have Julie for today?" he asked kindly. Zack chuckles. " Course." He backs up. " Come on in." Dai nods. " Thank you." He follows Zack out into the living room. " Julie!" calls Zack. Julie walks out into the living room. " Yes dad?" she sees Dai standing there. He had a black tracer jacket on, a gray shirt, and a pair of dark blue pants on. His hair was slicked back nicely. His eyes had a loving glow in them. " Hi Dai." Julie felt her heart race again.
Zack leaned back in his chair. " I assume your taking her out right?" he asked. Dai nods. " Yeah but I will keep her safe." Zack nods. " Alright. Off ya lot go then." He smiles. Dai takes Julie's hand gently. He took her out to his car. He opened her door for her. Julie smiles getting in. Dai walks around to the driver's side. He gets in pulling away from her dad's house. Dai takes her to a small festival happening in the depot. It was the holiday festival. People filled the plaza walking around the different tents and stands. " I take it you have never experienced the Holiday Festival?" he asked. Julie shook her head. " No." He smiles parking his car and getting out. He took her hand gently. They walked and Julie got a huge wave of excitement hit her.
She could hear music playing in the air. " This one day of the month that we get to celebrate on such a huge scale." She nods looking around. She went over to a honey stick stand. Dai smiled and followed her. She looked at them. " Want one?" He asked. Julie nods. " Yeah they smelled good." He smiles paying for one of them. He hands it to her. It was a cube of Honey on a small wooden popsicle stick. She licked it. " Omg it's so sweet." Dai smiles. " You like it?" he asked. She nods. He takes her hand while she finished the stick. She tosses the popsicle stick away. She walks with him over to a stage where a live preformance was playing. He smiles bowing in front of her. " Care to dance?" he asked. Julie nods. " Alright." She takes her hand.
You're in my arms, and all the world is calm
The music playing on for only two
So close together and when I'm with you
So close to feeling alive.
Julie looked up at Dai. " This song, it was my mom's wedding song." He smiles. " Then this must have a lot of value to you then." He pulls her close as they danced.
A life goes by, romantic dreams will stop
So I bid mine goodbye and never knew
So close was waiting, waiting her with you
And now forever I know, all that I wanted to hold you so close.
Julie keeps her eyes on him. " Dai I have never felt this way with anyone." She holds him close. " Thank you so much for helping me last night." He grins. " Don't mention it. Your dad is well respected by my family." He lifts her chin up and leans in on her.
So close to reaching that famous happy end
Almost believing this was not pretend
Now You're beside me, and look how far we've come
So far we are so close
He leans in more on her. His eyes started to close. Julie gulps and starts to lean in on him too. His hands move up her body.
Oh, how could I face the faceless days
If I should lose you now?
She shivers gently leaning in more. The space was soon closed up as their bodies pressed together. She felt his lips met hers. Her breathe was taken away. She holds him close.
We're so close to reaching the famous happy end
And almost believing this was not pretend
Let's go on dreaming for we know we are
So close, so close, and still so far
She pulls away breathless. Dai hugs her tight as the song ended. They stood there holding each other.
