Taking a bit of her own sandwich Destiny felt bad that Chance was upset but there was nothing she could do to change it. So just scooting a little closet to Chance Destiny gives him a smile letting him know it was ok, though she could tell something was different and it worried her.
"Mmm...a movie would be good. Maybe something funny to lighten our mood."
Leaning her head on his shoulder for a moment Destiny goes for her tea taking a sip. She couldn't make Chance feel any different so she could only hope in a few days he would feel better.
"The sandwiches are good. Thank you for making them Dear."
Feeling Alec move and shake her a little Ryan slowly opens her eyes. Moving slightly she could feel the throbbing on her back and her neck. It felt like someone was poking her over and over again till it was finally getting sore.
Giving a moan as she sat up Ryan puts her head into her hands for a moment. She must have been so comfortable that she had fallen asleep without even being tired.
"Oh man...this is defiantly going to leave a mark."
Turning her head a little bit to look at Alec to make sure he was indeed ok himself Ryan stops as her eyes end up going down to his chest where it was not as quite red. Letting her eyes go slightly wide before squinting a little and a smile forms on her lips.
"Ahhh...Alec...ummm..."
Not being able to help it a small chuckle comes from her lips before it becomes a little more louder.
"You...have...a...hand print....ahhh...right on your chest. Touched by an Alien where you?"
Still not being able to help it and finding the whole thing slightly funny the laughing became every more as her eyes teared a little bit. She couldn't help it and if it had been her she would be laughing at her own self too.
Standing in the area where Trey would be coming out Angelica looks over to Reese with a smile. For a moment she stops and thinks about his question. She never really met Trey before, nor had she even asked herself if he spoke any English.
"My Aunt and Uncle speak fluent English themselves because that have to with there business deals and what not but they also speak Spanish. I would assume Trey knows English to but I never asked so I'm not a hundred percent sure. Than again on top of that if he really wanted to be a pain he could just speak Spanish anyways, I guess...at least I would understand him but it would just be another added headache."
Great why hadn't she thought about asking that. It seemed like a question now she would of thought to ask but she had been so flustered that her mind had completely shut down. Now she could feel herself nerves heighten even a little bit more. But breathing slowly she does her best to stay clam.
"Well...at least I know Spanish to so we aren't totally in the woods on that."
Continuing to sit and wait the time slowly goes by. Sitting and chatting with Reese had been nice, and it gave Angelica something to do while they waited so she wasn't alone. Finally though the anouncment for the plan is heard and Angelica stands from where they had been sitting. She had a general idea what her young cousin looked like but only a rough idea.
"Ok, he's tall about 6'7, athletic, sandy hair, brown eyes, and probley looks nothing like me since he is adopted."
Angelica gives a nervous laugh. Why she seemed so edge about this she had no idea. She'd faced danger, defended people against who who were dangerous, and worked where some of the hardest, roughest people were bough day by day and yes this...she was nervous over.
Seeing someone who fit the discription she was given walking there way she could feel her heart start to pound even harder in her chest as she gave Reese hand and extra squeeze before letting it go. Taking note quickly to the look in his eye she could already tell he was non to happy to be here and this was going to be a challange. Walking over to the one who was though to fit the description Angelica wore a warm smile on her face.
"You must be my cousin Trey?! It's nice to have you here."
The younger man wore a look on his face that was non to happy to be there. Looking at Angelica and than Reese several times before replying. A smirk makes forms on his lips before replying.
"¡Adivino que tengo no escoge pero para ser!"
Looking to Reese Angelica gives a little sigh maybe it wasn't going to be so easy after all.
"Would you mind talking in English please so everyone can understand you?"
Shifting his weaght a little and letting out a long sigh along with a roll of his eyes Trey reply again.
"I said, I guess I have to be if I expect my parents to pay for everything while I am here. Though I am anything butt happy to be shipped to the states. Are we going to stand here are day or get my bags and so to my new place to reside?"
7/12/10
Lobster, anyone?
As Destiny mentions the Agency, Chance almost cringes. While she speaks, he refuses to look her in the eye, his jaw muscles working out his inner tension. "I am upset you got hurt," he admits quietly. That wasn't the half of it though.
Finally turning to look at her, he lifts his hand to the side of her face. "And you give me too much credit." He'd warned her about getting involved with the likes of him and she followed him blindly. His eyes seem clouded today as he gazes into her stare.
Letting his hand drop again, he turns and picks up his sandwich. He had to move on lest he say too much. "We need to find a good movie on tv," he muses.
Opening his eyes and then squinting in the sun, Alec blinks, taking a quick look around. He felt dry and very warm. His arm still rested around Ryan, whose head was still resting near his shoulder. It was then he realized he must have fallen asleep. In reality, he'd been asleep for at least an hour and by now, the sun was high in the sky.
Licking his parched lips, Alec moves a little to prop himself up on one elbow, gently moving Ryan too. "I think now I know why people talk about tropical escapes," he comments, still trying to wake up. Unbeknownst to him, the sun had gotten the best of him - his face was a nice bright red, along with most of his chest and arms. Had he known he was going to fall asleep, he would have chosen a shadier spot.
Reese gives Angelica's hand a squeeze and he nods. "It'll all work out one way or the other - of that, I'm confident."
Glancing at a nearby clock, he then watches down the hall to where Trey would be coming once off the plane. "By the way, you never said if this nephew of yours speaks English."

For the Best
Sitting down next to Chance Destiny places her plate in her lap and going to eat but stopping she looks over to Chance seeing his mind far away. Putting the plate down on the table Destiny turns to him for a moment and places a hand on his arm.
"Penny for your thoughts? You look like you got lost on me!"
Destiny's eyes held there own concern. Something was heavy on Chance's mind and she wasn't sure what. Was it still she got hurt or was it something else?
"If your still upset I got hurt, please don't be. It wasn't like you asked the Agency to come after me and you did your best to capture them. If it wasn't for you I might be dead too."
Getting out of the water with Alec and nestling into his side Ryan felt so comfortable and didn't care how dirty she now might get. It was nice just laying here with Alec and thats so many nights she just enjoyed laying on the couch with him. It just felt nice, and good to be in his strong arms.
"Mmmm...I think I like this a lot more than I ever thought I could. Your welcome Alec and thank you for opening my eyes too."
Lifting her head a little and giving him a kiss on the cheek Ryan lays her head back down on his shoulder and drapes her arm over his chest. Turning her head slightly to look out at the water Ryan just watches the soft waves, and listen to all the noises around them. All seeming to mix together and make the perfect sound for the perfect moment.
On the road again Angelica lets out a sigh. There coffee had been long gone, and though they both hadn't wanted to leave the comfortable spot at the park they new they had to so they could be there a little early waiting for Trey.
Getting to the airport it didn't take long. Finding a parking spot Angelica parks the car before getting out. Letting out a small sigh and a silent prayer Angelica hopes all well go ok and work out.
Taking Reese hand Angelica starts her way into the air port looking at to him she gives a smile. She was so strong at times and in front of Trey she would be too but yet someone like Reese could see past that.
"Here goes nothing lets hope for the best."

Far away
Chance grimaces, feeling stupid and irritated for cutting himself. He doesn't have much choice but to let Destiny help though, so he does, wincing a little as she applies the disinfectant but not complaining.
Once she's finished, he sighs and nods, oddly not finding humor in her comment about being one-handed. "Yeah. Thanks. I guess I need to watch the lettuce and stop daydreaming."
Turning back to the counter, he rinses off the knife and starts again, being more careful this time, even if he couldn't concentrate completely. After everything for lunch is ready, he moves the food to the living room where they could sit comfortably on the couch. Setting down the plates, he eases back on the couch, having Destiny sit next to him. He doesn't move to eat right away though... he wasn't as hungry as he had been just a while earlier and his eyes proved his mind was very far away.
Alec smiles at Ryan, his eyes just remaining on hers, searching, searching, reaching for their depths but finding them too deep to touch bottom.
Moving back out of the water and onto dry sand, Alec lies on his back, not caring that the sand would be sticking to them now after being wet from the lake. Tugging Ryan down with him, he lets her settle in at his side, resting her head against his chest where he could gently pull out her hair band so he could run his fingers through her hair.
Closing his eyes, he can feel Ryan's breath on his skin, his ears picking up the sound of the water, birds and people's chatter from far away. The sun shone down warm, a light breeze sending cool air to caress and dry.
"Thank you, Ryan," he mentions quietly, kissing the top of her head before lying still again. There was so much she'd done for him... so much words could not ever express.
