Outing: Carys and Jordan go Shopping

Carys Chase with Jordana Gates

May 22

*It was a great day, sunny and warm and perfect for some shopping withJordana Gates. My bestie and I had some catching up to do and this is one of our favorite things to do. Smiling at her as we pass some cool stores and window shop.* What are you thinking chica?

  Jordana Gates *Startled out of my reverie, I look at my best friend. Trying to hide my thoughts of Nathan aren't easy around her, but still I try sometimes.* Oh, not much of nothing. Just thinking about what I'd like to buy today. Really, it's just nice to be out shopping with you. We haven't done this in awhile!

  Carys Chase *Giving her a fanged grin and looping my arm with hers* How about something pretty, low cut and short for when you mate Nathan Bishop? *Her shocked glare has me laughing and I pull her to me for a hug.* I'm not blind, Jordana..Besides you may get him to lighten up some day.

  Jordana Gates *Looking at Carys in amazement. I should know by now that there's nothing I can hide from her.* You know that's not going to happen. *Sighing, I shrug my shoulders.* My family has promised me to another. I have no choice. Besides, I'm sure Nathan isn't interested. He's never made a move.

  Carys Chase *Copying her sigh* You never know. Sometimes your heart knows better. *Tugging a piece of her blonde hair playfully* I think t would be cool to have you in our little family though, not like you aren't already..but in a different way. You'd be around all the time, something I have wanted since we were little.

  Jordana Gates *smiling at her wistfully* I'd like nothing more, and I think you know that. *taking a deep breath* How can you possibly fall in love with someone that you've only shared one kiss with? I mean, we've never even dated.

  Carys Chase Have you met my uncles? My dad? *Laughs* Come on, they don't date. I don't recall any of the stories I heard involving going to the movies and meeting the parents. *Shrugs* The only reason I have dates is because no one knows about Rune..and it's different now..*Taking her hand* I don't know Jord, something tells me the male your promised to will be disappointed when he finds out your mated to another.

  Jordana Gates *grinning at her* A thought just occurred to me. Technically, your mom and Nathan are brother and sister, both sired by the Ancient. So, if the two of us are mated, won't that make me your Aunt? *bursting into gales of laughter as passersby stare at us*

  Jordana Gates *erupting into more gales of laughter* OMG - can you imagine? It would sound like the family tree doesn't fork! *stopping outside a storefront to catch my breath and wipe the tears from my eyes* I don't think we're going to have to worry about that though! You have to promise to come visit me after I am mated to my family's pick for me. I'm sure they're making plans. I still don't have any idea as to when it is supposed to take place. I don't even know if he wants it either. Arranged marriage is so archaic.

  Carys Chase *Staring at my reflection in the glass, I wipe the tears from my eyes and check my make up as best as I can.* I think it's weird, to mate someone you've never met. What if he's gross, or cruel? I swear, if you do mate this guy and he's mean to you, I'll kill him. *Grinning* Mate Nathan so I don't have to kill anyone Jordana! *Laughing*

  Jordana Gates *giggling* Well.... when you put it that way. I have no choice but to save my bestie from prison, right? *Linking arms with her, we walk into one of our favorite shops - Victoria's Secret.*

  Carys Chase See? I knew you'd have my back! *Pushing open the door, we are greeted by a sales girl who immediately shows us the new summer things. Our conversation forgotten for now as we pick out clothes and bra's, lost in our giggles and happy to just be together today.*~
