Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tennessee forgot all about Leah being silly and embarrassing when Cherelle put her arms around him again. He blushed and oddly relaxed at her hug as if it was actually comforting to him. (You know, like hugs were supposed to be for normal people.) Andrew still felt a bit guilty although he was glad Seychelles wasn't mad at him. The peace was quickly shattered when he saw the camera phone and gave his brother a dirty look. If he was a spiteful person he would go to write "George's" name on all his stuff later. Actually, he might just do something like that anyway, but for the moment he tried to remain focused on Cherelle. Just know there would be retaliation.

"I promise I'll look you up," he said. "It was still bad of me not to at least try learnin' 'bout you a little. Maybe I can find directions to your house." Then he could visit her even when they weren't at school.

When Christian mentioned Violet's name, Tennessee really did cringe and bury his face in his hands. He grumbled something like a curse and, as if summoned or waiting for a cue, the little piglet poked her sleepy head out of his room. Her selective hearing skills were terrifying. In a blur of pink she was up in Andrew's lap the second she laid eyes on him.

"Morning', Violet..." Andrew sighed.

I said where I come from
It's cornbread and chicken
Where I come from a lotta front porch sittin'
Where I come from tryin' to make a livin'
And workin' hard to get to heaven
Where I come from

There aren't too many rules when you come here.
Mind your P's an' Q's.
Be polite to all ya meet.
Take pride in where you're from.
Tea is always sweet.
And it's Coca-Cola, not Pepsi!

"What do you mean?" Tennessee asked as he absentmindedly gave Violet a piece of bacon since, you know, he figured he needed to feed her. Andrew would never admit the piglet was his pet since she had just started to follow him around one day, but he did feel responsible for her care and safety at times. Her persistent stalking had unofficially earned her a reluctant soft spot in his heart. Perhaps the weirdest thing at this point was the fact Tennessee didn't see anything odd about him feeding her pork products.

Violet nibbled the bacon cheerfully with a few happy snorts. Her springy little tail wiggled excitedly at the fact he was paying attention to her and hadn't tried to swat his stalker away. Tennessee, despite the chaos and strange incidents, seemed to be in a really good mood this morning.

"The only ones who haven't dropped by now are Texas, Michigan, Ohio and Hawaii... I hope Leilani got home ok..." he muttered with a small frown. "She didn't come with me and the others home from the dorms last night. I think I should check on her later."

"Nothing." She looked away as the pig continued to be a cannibal. "Ow." she rubbed her arm that Chris nudged but nodded as to seeing his point. Was her family always this crazy and Charlotte just never noticed till now? She smiled when she heard her cell vibrating, knowing it was pictures.

The spaniel drooled as the sent of ham was on her nose. She waited a brief second before tossing into the air to catch it. Despite her long fur. Heather is an amerian hunting dog much like her ancestor of the english cocker spaniel was to hunt english cockers (a bird).

"Hey, I originally came to see if any of yall would like to go to the park today. If you would I could save you the trouble and I would cook for tonight's dinner as pay back for the delicious breakfast."

Violet was watching Charlotte and Georgia. Just watching. If one looked closely, there might have been something calculating about her eyes, but when Andrew started to speak or looked in her direction the piglet's expression turned innocent and sparkly again.

"You're cooking dinner, too?" Tennessee asked and tried not to look excited about another one of Georgia's meals. Despite all their talking and wildness, he had somehow managed to clear his plate two or three times. He could cook and did a good job of it, but Christian's food really was great. "You don't have to do all that, though," he said. "Since you're cookin' I should do somethin' too. It's not fair if you do everything."

At Charlotte's suggestion Andrew smiled. "Yeah, the park sounds fun," he said. "Maybe we can invite Leilani to come, too. I don't think the park is far form the General Store so we can get the groceries while we're out, too."

Charlotte hadn't noticed the pig but the cocker spaniel kept her eye on it.
"That actually sounds like a good idea, Chris. That way everyone is happy" She smiled. "You could help me with the Apple pie or the fried chicken, if ya want Andrew." She was going to suggest her famous barbeque but decided against it since she didn't want to have to cook an entire pig in front of Violet even if she was an odd piglet.
