"Never mind," I sighed and dropped my head.

Glen mumbled something like ‘at least he taught her something decent’ which just made me want to get up and walk away but I was hungry and I had been a bit of an ass toward him earlier, he’s not gay so did not deserve any of my comments. I need to apologize the moment I get a moment alone with him.

"Than let’s pray,"

We all bowed our heads again. Paula began sprouting off her version of a pray but I wasn’t listening, instead wondering how she or any of them could talk to God as if he loved them in spite of their dirty choice of love. Just thinking of them kissing or anything else made my skin crawl and stomach flip. Maybe I wasn’t as hungry as I thought I was.

"Amen…"

The table sounded off and soon hands and mouths began. Hands grabbing food while the mouths chewed, talked, and smiled.

I sat there watching.

It was nice. A family setting for sure, just like me and pop only more people, more to talk about. No pauses of silence as they chewed because some one always had something to say.

"You know what I was thinking?" Christine spoke bringing me out of the sweet hallmark trance they put me in, when all eyes settled on her and the talking ceased she continued, "I think we should go out of town. A mini vacation, we leave Friday and come back Sunday night."

Ashley choked up the water she’d been drinking. Water trumle down her chin, tiny droplets splattering on her shirt, her face slightly red from the exertion made her look so adorale…

Water quickly shot from both my mouth and nose at such a thought of another female looking adorable unless she is like three years old.

~Ashley’s POV~

"What?"

I couldn’t believe she would say that or even think it. The first thought coming to mind is missing the opening hockey game and that wasn’t happening because I’ve been practicing for way to long.

"You don’t like the idea?" she pouted taking a sip of her red wind while smoothing out her napkin.

"No…I mean yes I like it but why this week?"
