I want to Stress that this WILL be a Kevin & Lucy story by the end.
I own no more than the mere title, apartment, or the plot of this story.
I love reviews, almost as much as I love George Stults! Almost! And anybody who knows me knows that I am obsessed with George!
-Lucy walked out onto the patio of her condo apartment, which landed in Virginia. It was small but big enough. It was a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom, one story home. Lucy was now paying rent on her own for $250 a month altogether. It had been about a month since she left and the divorce was over, done. She was awaiting her 1st child in about half a month. She had decided not to find out the gender but let it be a surprise. Her and her mother were still fighting surely you'd be angry if your mother called you 'The embarrassment of the family'. She sat on the swing that sat on the grass next to the patio. She was still single and had no intentions on finding love, atleast not right now. Little did she know in about a year or two her intentions would change? Or would they? She looked up at the shining stars but one was shining more brightly than the others. Her mind drifted off. Wish upon a shining star, Luce. Whose voice was that? She had been hearing it for weeks now. Wishing on the shiniest star will make all the bad go away. It sent chills up her spine. She couldn't place it though it was a gentle female voice. Oh well she might as well give up. She kicked off her flip-flops and opened the sliding glass door to her home. Stepping on the white, new, soft carpeting. She entered the kitchen and reached up into the cupboard with canned soups, and other canned foods and grasped upon a can of 'cream of chicken'. Mmmm cream of chicken was very delicious indeed. She then bent down and pulled out one of her cooking pans and sat that on the blue marble counter. She then got in the dish drawer and pulled out a can opener and opened the can pouring in contents into the pan. She then rinsed out the can with some water and poured milk into it, then poured the milk into her soup and put it on one of the 4 oven burners the front right one. She stirred it every minute or so and after about 3 to 5 minutes it was finished and there was her dinner. Nothing fancy but good enough for her. Tomorrow her and her sister Mary would go shopping for baby room furniture. Nothing girlish or boyish because Lucy did not want to find out the gender. Lucy then went in and took a cool shower to relieve her from the heat of the evening and climbed into bed.
-The next morning Lucy awoke to her alarm at around 8:30, Too early for her. She climbed out of bed reluctantly and walked on the soft cream blue carpet to her closet. Once she was there she opened the two big doors and entered the huge walk-in closet. She flipped through the various clothes and finally after about ten minutes picked out a dark blue tee, jeans, and water proof jacket, because it was supposed to rain today. She then exited the closet and closed the doors again and left the room walking across the hall to her bathroom. She took a 15-minute shower and then climbed out and wrapped up in her cream blue towel while she dried her hair. She then got dressed in the clothes she had picked out and did her make-up put on baby blue eye shadow to bring out her eyes. And light pink blush and a red, not to dark, but still red lipstick and did her hair just tossing it into a simple bun, nothing special. About 10 minutes later after she had eaten a bagel with cream cheese for breakfast, she heard the crunching of tires on gravel. She opened the cream blue curtain and looked out the window to see her sister's car park and her sister climb out. She turned and walked to the marble counter and grabbed her purse tossing her keys in it and grabbing some money out of the freezer. She zipped up her Jacket, opened, locked and closed the door and climbed into her sister's car. The ride to the mall was silent, Lucy was busy just scanning the road and thinking about things. Things about Jeremy and where would she be if her and Jeremy were still together? Oh well it was too late...no turning back now! Mary on the other hand was thinking of things to say this after all was the first time she had, had alone time with her sister since a long time...before Lucy even moved away with Jeremy. Lucy fumbled with her fingers and looked out her window to see a sign that said 'Mall-5 MILES'. Those 5 miles or 5 minutes whatever you want to call them flew by quickly and soon Lucy found them parking between a black truck, and a emerald colored car, and behind a Harley Davidson Motorcycle. They climbed out and Lucy grabbed her tan colored purse and Mary grabbed her black purse and they left. First they went into a baby store and bought some various multi-gender clothing, and a baby name book. As they were walking out Lucy was the first to speak.
"So...what has mother been saying about me behind my back?" Lucy asked.
"Do you really want to know?" Mary asked sarcastically.
"No...but tell me anyway's I suppose." Lucy replied.
"Well first of all she said you're a disgrace to the family, and your giving dad a bad name! And that you were supposed to be the good kid! And much more stuff but we won't go into that." Mary told all.
"I'll show her disgrace! I'll go elope with the first guy I meet!" Lucy shouted angrily.
"Mood swing," Mary whispered to herself.
"I HEARD THAT!" Lucy replied as they walked into the second baby store.
"Lucy, don't for your sake! Who care's what mom thinks? You aren't going to elope!" Mary said to her crazy sister.
"No duh!" Lucy said rolling her eyes. "I was only angry and said that because I was angry." But maybe crazily Lucy would elope! Only time would tell!
-They entered the store. Chatting happily as they walked around the store. Lucy got a white crib that she would decorate after the baby was born according to Gender and a white dresser that like the crib she would decorate after the birth of the baby according to gender. Mary agreed that after the birth of her niece or nephew she would and before her sister and the baby came home she would pick up bedding for the crib. Lucy and her had already picked it out. There was a blue fleece comforter that had a sun and clouds sewn onto the front and little sun and clouds sewn into every corner with cream blue sheets for a boy. And for a girl there was a pink fleece comforter that had a moon and stars sewn onto the front of it and little moons and stars sewn into every corner with light pink sheets. Then soon after Mary took an exhausted Lucy home. They set up the crib and dresser and then Mary left.
Please Review! Oh yes and tell me what you think Lucy should name the baby! Both Boys names and girls names. I have an idea but still I want to hear your ideas to and see if you guys have any better names then mine, which you probably do!
