ANNOUNCER: And now time for something entirely different... a message
from our sponsor....
BEGIN SCENE:
Jim: Knocks on Lily's Door.
Jim: :: Wishes he had thought to clean up a bit first.::
Jim: Checks out his hair in the reflection of
the chrome nearby. Arg. Bed head::
Lily: Enter.
Jim: :: Steps thru the door into a room full of people and... feathers::
Jim: :: Feeling a knot in his stomach:: uh, have I come at a bad time?
Lily: :: Wipes quickly at her eyes::
Lily: No, please, come in and ::looks around:: here, come sit. Isn't it a
bit early for you to be making visits? You really should rest.
Jim: Yes Mom. Really, I was just in the way in
SB2.
Lily: :: Blinks for a moment wondering if Jim knows
about the baby that she IS a mother::
Jim: Sully ( Dr. Sullivan) says you were with
me most of the time. You should be resting too. ::looks around:: is this
some sort of, pillow fight or something?
Lily: No, just kids playing.
Chalandra: Children, let's leave Lily to her
gentleman caller, come on.::smiles as she herds them out of the main room.::
Lily: ::Laughs that one off:: Silly, as if...
Jim: Well, here, may I help you clean this up?
Chalandra: ::Opens the door quickly:: ABSOLUTELY
NOT! The kids will do it later. ::slam::
Lily and Jim ::Both laugh nervously, titter::
Jim: ::Why am I so...self conscious all of a
sudden?
Lily: ::Pats at her bouffant hairdo and wishes she
had reapplied her lipstick::
Lily: Can I offer you some coffee or perhaps uh, water?
Jim: Coffee if it's no trouble. ~~geeze ya'd think
we were courting, how silly to be nervous around Lily~~
Lily::: I'm only making it half standard caffeine (
for Eastern Europeans that's still triple espresso to the rest of the
world ;o) ) I bet you haven't had any solid food yet have
you?
Jim: Uh, no not really. Just been terribly thirsty.
Lily: ::Disappears for a minute and returns with a
small glass of something pink:: Here, drink this. It's a power meal. It should
help.
Jim: :: Takes the small glass and eyes the vivid
pink "juice":: Is it nasty like, um, er, medicine?
Lily: ::Laughs, forgetting herself:: No, silly just
strawberry flavored. Now bottoms up ya big baby.
Jim: ::Drains the pink fluid:: ... ::cough cough cough!!!::
Lily: Oh, did I forget to mention its, an old family
recipe? Lots of good things in it.
Jim: :: Surprised but seems to begin feeling less wheezy
and light headed:: WOW.
Jim: Packs quite a punch.
Lily: Oh, That would be the generous dose of bourbon.
Jim: ::Raises his eyes::
Lily: You're not on duty.
Lily: ::Hands him a steaming cup of coffee, cream, no sugar.::
Jim: :: Takes the thick white coffee cup.::
Jim: Thank you. And seriously, you've been a fantastic friend, sitting
with me when I was unconscious all that time.
Jim: :: Takes a sip of coffee::
Jim: Sully said you weren't feeling well. Should I come back
another time?
Lily: Thank you (mulstumesc in Romanian ;o) )
No, it's fine. You can stay.
Jim: No, Thank YOU.
Jim: :: Smiles and takes another sip, thinking: ~~[Bleep! - (It's the evil
network censor who gets paid by the word hacking away again.) ] why do I
feel like such a dolt?, Lily never made me nervous before.~~
Jim: Great coffee! What is it?
Lily: :: Demurely:: Taster's
Choice
Lily: :: Still a bit teary eyed but more composed::
Lily: Can I get you something else?
Jim: No, please, sit down. You look like you could use some of that
bourbon yourself.
Lily: :: Smiles politely:: No thank you. I caa... ::word ends
abruptly followed by a fast:: Uh... No thanks
Jim: Join me for coffee then?
Lily: :: Gets a little tearier:: Sure.
I'll be right back
Jim: :: Watches Lily walk past.:::sigh::
Jim : :: Sigh! :: ~~What could I be thinking!!!!~~
Lily: :: Gets thick coffee and adds a lot
of milk and sugar::
Lily: :: Comes back with box of cookies and plate besides coffee::
Lily: :: Sits, opens box...::
Jim: So...how has it been rooming with all your guests?
Jim: :: Thinking, great next I'll be commenting on the environment...::
Lily: Oh it's fine... uh... :: finally
notices box IS open and that it looks like someone went to great trouble
to make the box look unopened::
Lily: Just um ::laughs in that cute way of hers::
Lily: :: Hands him the box::
Jim: Yes?
Jim: Thank you, ::takes a few cookies and puts them on his plate::
Lily: Hard to keep food around especially
cookies.
Jim: :: Hands the box back to her:: Yes, I'd imagine the kids
eat a lot.
Lily: Yes... :: a bit slowly:: I imagine
they do
Jim: :: Picks up an interesting cookie and takes a bite:: ummmmm. My
mother used to bake.
Lily: Really? Mine did too. I think
I can remember it.
Jim: So what was going on when I interrupted? You looked quite
upset.
Lily: Uh, the kids ...::voice trails off
, her eyes turn inadvertently towards the feathers again and she chokes up::
Jim: ::Picks out a nearly whole cookie from the box and places it gently
on Lily's plate:: Here, you look like
you could use a cookie.
Lily: Um, thanks.
Jim: Yeah. Did they destroy something special? ::Looking
around and sees feathers.::
Jim: ~~NO! Feathers. No wonder she's crying. How stupid could I be!~~
Lily: No, it was just the... the... the
couch...::looks away:: Um I think I forgot something in the kitchen. ::gets
up hurriedly::
Jim: Lily! Wait.
Jim: I know what it is. I am so sorry.
Lily: :: Stops with her back to him for
a second::
Jim: So sorry.
Lily: :: Not sure what to do::
Jim: Why don't we go for a little walk, you can get away and
I bet Chalandra will clean up around here and I
sure could use some exercise.
Lily: :: Closes eyes, shutting them releases
a tear that was trapped in one::
Jim: :: Stands:: Lily?
Jim: Do you want me to leave?
Lily: :: Brushes it off quickly:: Uh I
think I left the unit on. ::disappears into kitchen::
Jim: ::[Bleep!- from the network censor again that gets paid by the
word] To cause such hurt to Lily is agony::
Jim: :: Thinking, maybe I should just go away and leave her alone.::
Lily: :: Pulls sliding door shut, and leans
on counter::
Lily: ~~What do I do? He finally said it. Why do I feel so so...~~
Jim: :: Gently knocks on the door:: Lily? Do you want me to go?
Lily: :: Eyes very red and weepy:: Yes,
please.
Jim: Okay. Thank you for the ...for everything.
Lily: It's been a long day and I have a
lot of ...feathers ... to clean.::her voice trails off::
Jim: :: Quietly leaves Lily's quarters.
Jim: :: Out in the passage way:: ::heads off in any direction not knowing
where he's headed but just out of there.::
Lily: :: Still confused in kitchen, not
sure what was worse - having him stay or having him go::
