She shook her head, "No. My parents aren't really warm and fuzzy people. They didn't want more than one child."

[Anime]

After a moment of thought, Reagan lightheartedly asked. "What's it like being an only child?"

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

"Quiet," Marnie chuckled softly, "Lonely, sometimes."

[Anime]

"I guess 'the grass is always greener on the other side' is true then." Reagan frowned.

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

"I can't complain about how I grew up," She shrugged, "It's what I'm used to."

[Anime]

"I can understand that." Reagan stopped in front of the flower shop. "However, I always wondered what it would have been like to be an only child." She paused for a moment. "Yet, once he was gone I regretted ever even thinking that..."

"He was so noisy. We always had to share a room. We were always arguing over something." Reagan smiled. "We had to put up with being compared to each other our entire life, especially in school..." She looked down at the sky. "But he was my brother."

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Marnie smiled, "Yes, I understand. Family can be annoying and loving at the same time, right?"

[Anime]

"I think that's how family is supposed to be." Reagan turned to face Marnie.

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Marnie nodded, then leaned over and kissed her lightly, "I had a great time, Reagan."

[Anime]

"Me, too." Reagan leaned in and kissed her again. "I didn't realize how much I needed to just to relax with good company."

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

She smiled at the 'good company' comment. She gently ran her hands down Reagan's arms, "I already can't wait for Friday."

[Anime]

"Friday isn't that far away." Reagan smiled. "But, I can't wait for it to be Friday, either.

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

"Mmm. Feels like a long time when you're looking forward to something, right?" Marnie grinned.

[Anime]

"Funny how that is..." Reagan agreed. "I guess this is going to make for a long forty-eight hours."

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Marnie fished around for her keys and pulled them out, "Hmm, it will be hard, but we can do it," she smiled, "Until Friday?"

[Anime]

"Until Friday." Reagan offered a small smile.

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Marnie pulled her in for one last hug, then unlocked the flower shop door and went in.

[Anime]

Reagan watched the door close behind Marnie before starting towards her condo.

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

[ Skippy to Friday?~ ]

[Anime]

[Sure]

Reagan looked in the mirror at her outfit. With a sigh, she walked back to her closet and rummaged for the smoke-gray button-down that had to be in there somewhere. She dug further into her closet before pulling the shirt out triumphantly. She carefully rehung the shirt she had just tried on before shrugging on the one she had just found.

She was so nervous. First dates weren't really her thing--scratch that, dating in general wasn't her thing. In fact, she had just gotten around to repairing the hole the last woman that she'd tried to start a relationship with caused--Reagan counted her blessings that the iron had collided with the wall opposed to hitting her.

Reagan shook her head and went through the mental checklist that she'd created to ensure that she'd done everything in preparation for tonight. After she was sure everything was ready, she grabbed her car keys and headed to finish the last few details.
