176c. 6/11... Ferns

by lovelovekitty on Wed Apr 23, 2008 10:18 pm


((My horticulture teacher calls this stuff "Austrailian Tree Fern" even though it's not a true fern. Please realize when I call this stuff a "fern" it's just because of it's common name, not because it actually is))


Image
Dru: *wanders into Cora's room, stopping* ........

Image
Dru: What in the world....

Image
Dru: *looks at the fern laying all over the floor* How did this get in here...?

Image
Cora: *lays facedown on her bed, making some murmuring into her pillow*

Image
Cora: *louder, muffled in her pillow* Dru is that you?
Dru: *lays his hand on her back* Yes Cora... you have... foilage all over your floor. From your closed window to your bed.... Did you do this?

Image
Cora: *looks up* What... *looks at the fern laying all over her floor*.... No I didn't do this... that is very bizarre....
Dru: It is strange indeed...

Image
Cora: Who in the world would buy austrailian tree fern and dump it in my room? It certainly didn't come from outside with all the snow and bitter weather we've been having.

Image
Dru: How are you feeling, Cora?
Cora: A little better... I think I managed to doze off for a half hour. I just woke up a few minutes before you came in.

Image
Cora: *whispers* But we should keep it down... Cami is still asleep <3

Image
Dru: *whispers back* Of course... I feel terribly guilty, I may have given you both the bug I had earlier.
Cora: Oh no, don't even think that. I have never gotten ill like this before, I wonder what it could be?

Image
Dru: *reaches out, taking her hand* Well what are your symptoms?
Cora: Well there was really only one...

Image
Cora: It was this terrible ripping sensation in my chest, like someone was ripping my rib cage apart with their bare hands. It only lasted for about an hour.. and then I dozed, and then you came in.

Image
Dru: *frowning* My poor sweet Cora... I am relieved to hear that you are feeling better though.

Image
Dru: I fully intend to nurse you and Miss Camilla back to full health. As you have done for me.
Cora: *smiles* That's very sweet of you, Dru. Really I think I'll be fine.

Image
Cora: *smiles still, playing with Dru's hand* Your hands are warm... they say "warm hands, cold heart" but now I know that the saying is simply not true.

Image
Dru: My heart can be yours if you will have it Cora.
Cora: Dru...!!

Image
Cora: I... I don't know what to say... I'm very flattered....

Image
Dru: *leans forward, embracing Cora* If our love is not true, then I do not know what kind of love is, and I do not think it can exist....
Cora: *wraps her arms around his neck, holding him*

Image
Cora: *thinking* Dru.....
