Brian paced
around the lounge room after dinner, he’d done it, booked
the tickets and all, tonight they would be off to Florida. Taymar
was putting the twins to bed, he’d tell her after then.
“Daddy
can I sleep outside tonight?” Thomas pleaded looking up at
his father
“Uh no
Thomas, I don’t think so” Brian replied, not really
paying much attention
Taymar
strolled back into the lounge, as Kevin glanced up from the
magazine he was, and gave Brian the ‘go-for-it’ signal.
“Excuse
me for a minute” Kevin smiled walking out of the room
Taymar plopped
down onto the couch.
“Baby”
Brian started
“Yes?”
Taymar sighed
Brian sucked
back his confidence and pulled the tickets, which had been
couriered out before, from behind his back.
“Lets go
to Florida” he announced throwing them practically under her
nose
“What?”
Taymar stuttered
“Florida,
lets go, tonight” he smiled
“Brian
what has gotten into you?”
“Nothing,
I uh, just wanted to be spontaneous, so that’s what I'm
doing”
“Well
stop it you’re scaring me” Taymar announced standing up
and brushing past him
“You
better pack”
“You’re
not serious about this are you?”
“Yes of
course I am, we leave at 10 tonight”
Taymar’s
mouth dropped.
“What
about the kids?”
“Mom’s
coming over, and Kevin will be here and –“
“If you
think I'm leaving my children with that cousin of yours you are
so out of your mind”
“Tay,
come on, we both need this holiday, it’s only for 2 days”
“Do I
have much choice in the matter?”
“Baby, I
just want you to be happy”
“Whatever”
Taymar sighed

TIME ~
Meghan
switched on her comp as the words ‘You got mail’
flashed up on the screen.
From:
MrsSnufflelaughagous_666
“What the
hell, cant he take a hint” she mumbled recognizing the name
She starred
down at the keyboard in front of her, she had three options,
ignore him or her, reply, or alert the police.
“Stupid
police men wont do anything, and he or she wont go away if I just
ignore them” she sighed going through the options in her
head
She opened the
instant message and skimmed across it.
I'm sorry,
we seemed to have gotten off to a bad start, please forgive me, I
didn’t mean to scare you, I just like to watch you, you
intrigue me…….
From:
Megsdaisy_000:
Message: I
don’t know who you are, and frankly I don’t
particularly care. Just leave me alone, otherwise I’ll
have to get the authorities involved. Have a nice day.
She smiled
victoriously as she sent away the message.
“That
should keep you quite” she announced standing up and walking
over to the kitchen to get a drink
The familiar
‘message’ sound rung through her apartment
Message: Meghan please, I just
want to be with you
Meghan sighed
annoyed and wrote back hurriedly.
Message:
Yeah whatever creep, last time you were saying you hated me, do
you have some sort of disorder? Because you are seriously pissing
me off…why don’t you just go get a freaking life.
It wasn’t
long before another message came.
Message: I was wrong, I was
angry because you liked HIM< but now I know we will be
together
“Whatever”
she mumbled as she typed a message back
Message: I'm
sick of your bullshit, I'm logging off now, if you bother me I’ll
fucking get the whole damn Orlando police department nailing your
hide
She sent the
message then switched off her computer.
~ LATER THAT
NIGHT ~
Taymar sat
staring out at the city lights below her as the plane went into a
landing in the Orlando Airport. Brian and her had hardly
spoken a work to each other, and she pretty much preferred it
that way.
~ AT THE SAME
TIME ~
AJ woke with a
splitting headache as he practically got thrown out of a barely
slowing down car. He stood up off the ground and wiped the
mud from his pants, looking around, the area was familiar, he was
back at the circus with only a few shaded memories of what had
happened prior.
“J, where
have you been? Are you okay?” Mandy inquired walking up
behind him
He spun around
and tried to focus on her, but his head was spinning out of
control.
“You look
sick, and everybody’s been looking for you” she
continued placing her hand on his shoulder
“I'm
gonna be, I'm gonna be –“ he mumbled bending over
“You’re
gonna be what?” Mandy inquired
Before AJ
could get the rest of the words out of his mouth, his entire
dinner came hurtling out, landing half on the ground and the
other half, bang smack on Mandy’s chest.
“Be sick”
he groaned as he collapsed into his own vomit, passing out into
complete darkness
