Middleground – Seite 186

Next morning, Brandon discovered a little bouquet right by the door. His little collection grows.

And with that, we leave him (yes, snore, boring round, I know. But he’s really determined to become a painter, so that’s what he does all day.)

How Brandon spends the rest of his day/night. Painting til 2 am and sleeping til noon…

The card gets an honorary place right by the phone.

Huh? Post twice a day?

Oh. That’s nice!

As bartenders work odd hours, Brandon’s ‘weekend’ is actually Sunday-Monday. After fixing the bathtub, painting and paying bills (*sigh*) he invites over one of his ‘girl friends’ for a date.

Brandon Lillard still tries to become a successful artist so he won’t have to continue to work as a meagerly paid bartender. So far, his pictures aren’t very popular with the crowd though, so bartending it is.

While cleaning up the front yard next morning, Ivy reviews yesterday night’s happenings. It was… and she can’t say she won’t do it again, but only if it’s as uncomplicated as yesterday. The whole emotional part surrounding it just seems… exhausting.

(Ivy still had a woohoo want locked from her date, so I figured why not fulfil it. Brandon and Ivy actually have one-bolt of chemistry after one flirt, which is highly unusual for Romance-Knowledge combinations, I think. She and Remington also were only at the very beginning of their relationship- only becoming best friends at the end of their date- which is why I didn’t write a big fallout for them when they ‘broke up’)

That was easy.

“Hey, aren’t you like the town’s Casanova? Your place or mine?”

Brandon sure appreciates this kind of directness.

And off to the park she goes.
