Episode Thirty-Seven: Beautiful DayHe strode across the lawn through the pouring rain, car keys jingling in his hand. He hunkered down under the large tree, the opposite side of her makeshift shelter. He couldn’t resist when he had seen her sitting there."It’s kind of wet out here, don’t you think?" Bas asked, leaning against the trunk. Avalon was tempted not to answer him at all. "I like the way it smells; it’s kind of springy." She admitted, clicking the pen to fill up the silence he left her with, that was before he started laughing. "Do you always have to act like I’m crazy?" She asked straining to see him on the other side. Straining because he was already with her, down on his haunches, flipping through the party planners. He looked into her eyes, perfectly serious and said, "I don’t think you’re crazy, well, maybe a little." Ava didn’t resist pushing him until he was lying flat on his butt in the grass with raindrops falling on his head and she couldn’t hide the satisfaction on her face. Bas scrambled back under the tree and sat so close that his damp cheek was nearly pressed against hers. "I’m sorry," he said, sounding terribly insincere, barely concealing laughter. Ava turned and they bumped foreheads, she almost- she stood, quickly gathering Katherine’s notes for the party. "I know you’re the one who hired Fern." "You’re welcome, Avalon." He called to her as she walked back to the house. |
