Well it was fourth of July, and despite AJ's protests with his boss he had to come in to work that day. He wanted to stay and try to cheer Damaris up a bit, maybe take her to see some fireworks but it didn't seem that would be the case.

Red remembered fireworks from a block party a while back. He hated them, they made an incredibly loud and obnoxious noise, so he was holed up in Damaris' room trying to wait for the wretched holiday to be over.


Meanwhile Damaris was laying on the couch in the living room completely in the dark and wrapped in a blanket. It had gotten to the point where the pregnancy was starting to show ever so slightly, but it was still small enough to pass off as just gaining a little weight.

She was flipping through the channels sulking by herself. She saw fire works on the television, and movies, and couples and romantic stuff associated with the fourth of July. It made her miss Valens, she remembered that night at the boardwalk. She wondered if it meant anything to Valens. She still wasn't sure what their current affiliation with each other was but she still wore that necklace he gave her...constantly.

She sighed a bit returning to the here and now where she was currently in a predicament that she would never have imagined. She resumed her glum views and flipped through the channels some more.

It had taken a lot of investigation on the part of the horse to figure out where he might be able to find Damaris. He wanted to see her again after the fun time that they'd had at the boardwalk. He wasn't exactly the sharpest tool in the shed, a bit slow even so it had taken a lot time to get to where he was.

"I think that this is the place." He said, starring at the place. He looked over at the dragon who was traveling with him.

Ellie wasn't about to let the boy get away from her again. He'd gotten lost up in Barton not that long ago and was gone nearly a full day before he'd gotten home. His parents weren't thrilled... as such she was back to playing chaperon and wasn't going ot fail this time.

"I think so, I smell the Chromatic." Ellie murmured.

Valens gave a smile before he hurried forward to knock on her door, tails swishing.

Damaris seemed a little surprised at the knock coming from the door. She wasn't expecting anyone, and it was a holiday, there was no mail.

Damaris muted the TV and cautiously went over towards the door. She peered out the peep hole and saw that it was Valens. She yelped a bit upon seeing the Clydesdale boy, it was a mix between joy and terror. She quickly snatched a nearby hair tie and put her hair up in a pony-tail, it was a mess.

She straightened out her clothes and primped up as much as she could. She looked down a moment at the slightly protruding stomach that was harboring another living being now. She hesitated a moment, she really didn't want Valens...of all people, to think she were some slut.

She slowly opened the door and stuck her head outside, trying to conceal most of her body, "H-Hello." She greeted them trying to give Valens a weak forced smile.

Valens smiled brightly when the door opened up to reveal the peeking out head of the lizard girl causing a little smile to appear on his face, "Hello there Damaris." He greeted her, tail swishing behind him. He seemed to be quite happy to see the girl if his expression was any indication.

"How have you been? Its been a while since I saw you last so I thought I would try to look you up." He made it sound a lot simpler then it had been to find her.

Ellie looked back and forth between the two before giving a little smile. The Silver sat back on her haunches and waited, quietly to see how things went. This girl was after all the one he'd put so much effort into finding.

Damaris was pretty flattered that Valens went through all of that trouble just to see her. She had been avoiding him a lot recently, she felt like he would get mad at her and not like her, and dump her...well that is if they were actually even going out. That was something the lizard girl couldn't quite figure out yet.

She still seemed really hesitant. She didn't want him to see her like she was right now. She could probably just pass it off as she gained a little weight, with Valens that wouldn't be too hard either. However she still though even that might be enough for him to stop liking her.

Lately her emotions were on every point on the spectrum and her self-esteem issues were plaguing her, "Yeah...it's been a while." She admitted, "I really missed you Valens..." Damaris admitted. She was starting to feel the pang of longing for him that she had been keeping suppressed. Well her hormones decided to amplify that. Damaris' eyes were starting to well up a bit. It must suck not being in full control of your emotions.

Valens felt a moment of panic that caused him to shift back and forth on his hooves, she looked a bit as if she were going to cry despite saying that she had missed him. Had he done wrong in coming here? Did she want her privacy? Was it some sort of girl thing that he wouldn't understand? His ears laid back and he found himself unsure of whether he should go or not, "Yeah, I missed you to. It was a lot of fun the other day so..." He trailed off.

So... he'd thought they could have another day, but good days didn't start with tears did they?

"Unless your busy? If you are we can do something another time." He should have called first instead of dropping by unannounced.

Damaris looked at Valens as he seemed to look like a puppy that just did something wrong. She giggled a little bit. Something about Valens always managed to cheer her up a little bit.

She finally opened the door all the way, "No...I'm not busy," She said a little self conscious about her appearance, "But...it's the fourth of July...aren't you doing something with your family?" She asked not really wanting to make eye contact with Valens in case he was disgusted with her. She was fidgeting nervously with the necklace he got her. She was still wearing it.

Valens perked up, ears turning forward when she opened up the door and seemed to be allowing to him to enter. He gave pause, stomping any dirt from his hooves before coming inside, "Naw, my Father isn't really one for celebrations." He explained, the man seemed to want to have little to do with those outside of the family. It was strange how lowly he saw other people...

"Mom wanted to but when I explained to her that I wanted to visit you she told me I should." She had been grinning from ear to ear, commenting on how she hoped he found himself a nice girl. His father commented that it was a surprise he could find his way out of a closet never mind finding a girl... and then he'd left while they were doing their normal bickering.

"Probably best I came out to visit." He decided after a mental review of what had been going on at home, "Ah! Cool! Your wearing your necklace!"

Damaris blushed a bit when Valens said he chose to come visit her for today, "Red is like that too," She said with a small smile, "He doesn't like the noise of the fireworks I think, he's probably asleep on my bed." She said with a giggle.

"Yeah, I...really like it." She said fiddling with the necklace some more. It didn't seem that Valens cared much about her now slightly protruding stomach. Or if he did he didn't say anything.

"Hi Ellie, it's nice to see you again too." She said with a smile at the dragon. She remembered how polite a dragon Ellie had been when they met. Plus her interest in dragons in general made her glad to see her.
PostPosted: Tue Jul 08, 2008 8:53 pm


Valens gave a bright smile, "Awesome, I'm glad that you like it." He said. That she was still wearing it meant that not only did she like it but she must like him as well! Or so he figured.

"If you don't have any plans for tonight I was thinking... that maybe we could do something?" His tone sounded hopeful.

Ellie followed her boy's lead, checking all four of her feet before coming inside. She had been looking around, back and forth for the dragon that Damaris was partnered with. When she heard the girl say that he was off sleeping the Silver relaxed a little. She tried not to let it get to her but Chromatic were a little scary, "Hello Damaris." She greeted, bowing her head politely.

Damaris still wasn't sure if she wanted to go out in public. It was hard enough when she had to go to classes, some of the teachers gave her the meanest looks, it was hard on her.

"Uhm, what did you have in mind?" She asked quickly glancing to the clock. She was glad her dad wouldn't be home for a while still, if she saw Valens in the house...Damaris just didn't want to think about that.
PostPosted: Tue Jul 08, 2008 9:09 pm


Valens flicked his ears back and forth, thinking on it hard, "Hmmm... good question." He said, it would show that he failed in the planning process. He'd gotten step one down which had been: Find Damaris. After that the rest of the steps were left blank.

"Is there anywhere within walking distance that's fun?" He asked of her, "Maybe we could get some food or watch a movie or something."

Damaris giggled, "You mean like...a date?" She inquired cautiously it was something she had been trying to figure out, if they were going out...and all her personal issues aside...she kinda wanted to.

She fidgeted with her necklace some more, it seemed to be a nervous habit and right now she was pretty nervous.

"W-Well...I don't think any movie theaters are open on the fourth of july...but there is going to be a fireworks show at the park a few blocks away." She said half hoping that Valens missed her first question, it was kind of nerve wrecking.

Valens flushed, the brightest of the red appearing on the white streak on his face at her question, "Like a date?" He thought on it then nodded rapidly, that sounded nice. So if they were gonna go together to the fireworks that meant they were dating!

"Fireworks sound good, they were pretty in Isle de Gambino." He said, recalling some of the fireworks but more over he just remembered what else was going on during the fireworks which made his blush intensify.

"A-Alright." Damaris said still blushing herself but smiling none the less, "I-I'll go get ready...be right back!" She said running off to her room. She wasn't going to go on a date dressed the way she was, and she had to do something with her hair.
