Drew was on the couch, busy flipping channels with the puppy on his lap tugging on the rope he had bought the little guy. He found his heart jumping just thinking about Lacey; which was pretty sad considering that he should stay away from her. His head still felt that seeing her was a bad idea, but at the same time he couldn’t wait. The puppy could see that Drew was in a daze and he looked up at him with a quixotic look, tilting that small leg. Drew looked down at the pup and let out an exasperated sigh, “Don’t fall for anyone because it just gets complicated” he lectured the pup who probably didn’t understand him, “when you find a nice looking poodle or something, make sure she’s what you really want before you go out and do something you might not think was a good idea”

When the door knocked, the pup let out high pitched barks and Drew covered its mouth with his palm as a muzzle, “Hush you, what did I say about barking?” it was hard to hide the puppy if he kept on barking every time they had a visitor. Standing up from the couch, he walked over to the door followed by the small canine and opened the door somewhat surprised, “Lacey? Here already?” A smile naturally peered through her lips and took her in for a hug, “It’s nice to see you” he couldn’t help himself with the light embrace.

Moving aside, he made room for her to walk in, then closed the door softly. Rocky (the pup) made no haste to start going on those two legs of his, that pink tongue hanging out happily wanting some attention from the new guest. Drew shook his head and smiled, “And this little guy here is Rocky” he picked him up so that Lacey could pet him without having kneel down.

Upon seeing him, Lacey's smile had grown bigger, and she returned his light hug. It was good that he had acted, because she would have just stood there not knowing what to do. Although, part of her wanted the hug to be longer. She did like the way it felt to be held by the man in front of her.

Afterward, she adjust her glasses and saw the adorable puppy on the floor. It was too cute for words, and she went into 'girly' mode as she pet the puppy and spoke to it, as someone would speak to a baby. "He's adorable," she squealed, scratching the pup behind the ears. "Aww...You are such a great guy to save him." She gave the puppy a kiss on the top of his head and then, looked back at Drew, smiling. "He's very lucky to have you..."

A grin grew on his face watching Lacey baby talk to the puppy. It was made evident that the pup loved that. Every once in a while, Drew would do the same thing; except not in front of anyone but maybe his roommate, because knowing the man for more than five years had him very comfortable to do anything around him. And that counted baby-talking to the puppy, although it wouldn’t go without a tease from him. He sighed, “You should have seen this guy; all alone digging in the trash for food…I don’t know how anyone could abandon this guy” he shook his head, remembering the shows he watched that showed horrible violence to animals. The puppy mills were the worse, and he didn’t know how people could treat animals like that. It was pretty sad.

He smiled at her, “I think I’m lucky to have him” he corrected, “when I was little, I always wanted a puppy. But money was pretty much slacking for us to get one…and my dad didn’t like puppies…or cats…or people…basically anything that breathed” he shook his head but managed to let out a smile. He didn’t really understand how his father got the way he did, but hey, it was all over, right?

Walking over to the couch, his head gestured for her to sit next to him. Rocky took the rope in his mouth and attempted to rip it apart. Drew took the other end of it and started a mini tug-o-war with him. Drew looked at Lacey and found himself smiling softly. Even in such comfortable clothing, she still found a way to look pretty. He remembered the last time they had seen each other, and yet again it was in a bed. His eyes looked at her softly, “How are you, Lace?” he asked, “anymore guys giving you trouble?” he chuckled softly.

Lacey quietly listened as Drew spoke, and followed him into the living room. It was a pretty decent place, but she still preferred her place. He gaze went from the puppy to Drew. It was odd how with Drew, she didn't really have to be doing anything special in order to just feel like she was relaxed and having fun. It was just something that Drew's presence provided her with.

"Um...I've been good. No guys have been giving me trouble," she said. Although, now that she thought about it, there was something that was a bit troubling for her. However, she'd bring that up later. She was enjoying the moment too much to ruin it.

So, she leaned closer and pet the puppy as he played with the rope. "Things have definitely taken an odd turn, but I'm not sure if that's good or bad. I guess I may just play things out...see where it goes...you know?" She gave him a shy smile, and then gave him the same question. "What about you? How have things been with you?"

His apartment was average looking. It was a bit messy, but nothing disgusting. A few t-shirts on the floor at the most. If he knew that Lacey was coming sooner, he would have cleaned up more. He smiled at her, “That’s good. But you know…if someone does bother you, you can call me and I’ll go and beat them up” he laughed, although he wasn’t joking at all. He didn’t know what he would do if he saw another man touch her, but he wouldn’t bring up the subject of that. Naturally he was very protective over the girl, but he wasn’t going to nag her like her father or something. She was an adult…but again, it didn’t stop him from worrying her. There were crazy people in the world lately and Lacey was very, very, very pretty. He was expecting guys to be looking at her, but the thought made him twitch.

“An odd turn?” he echoed with a tilted head, “what do you mean an odd turn?” He really, really, really had hoped she didn’t meet another guy, but part of him did. He had told her that he didn’t think a relationship wasn’t a good idea, so she was free to see any guys that she wanted, but there was this jealousy building in the pit of his stomach for her, and that was rare. Drew was never jealous over anything, but this girl started to churn up emotions he didn’t know that he even had. There wasn’t much to say; she was definitely different for him.

His shoulders shrugged noncommittally, hoping he looked relaxed, “Pretty good. Same old, same old. Been visiting Torrent more than regularly now” he commented. He wished he could have said that he was trying to date, but the fact was that he wasn’t. Whenever he met a pretty girl and had a conversation, Lacey would always pop up which was pathetic on his side. But right now, he doesn’t exactly know what he wants, so as of now he was just winging it.

Lacey was very flattered that Drew seemed to be a bit protective of her. Even though he seemed to be joking, part of her wondered if there was an seriousness to the comment. Anyway, she still thought that it was sweet of him to say, even if he didn't mean it. She continued to lean closer to the dog, which put her against Drew, but she wasn't really paying that any mind.

"Oh...um. Well, it's hard to explain...not really..." Lacey began to fumble with her words. Even though she and Drew weren't a couple, she still felt attached to him and didn't want to say anything that may put him off. "It's nothing really. Things are just going pretty well." That was true...to an extent. She gave a sigh and sat up, glancing around, trying her best to not look at Drew.

However, it was inevitable. When she caught his gaze, she grimaced. "Drew...there's something I need to tell you. I don't want you to freak out...cause it may be nothing, but I want you to know what's going on...since it somewhat involves you." She was rambling...but only so that she didn't have tell her 'secret.' "Just don't be mad...okay?" Lacey took a deep breath and then finally, she told him. "I should have gotten my period last week...and well, it could just be late, but if it's not...I think...well, you..." That was all that she managed to get out before she scooted away from him and stood.

Nervously, she began to pace the room, afraid of what this would do to her 'relationship' with Drew.

When she was against him, he lifted his arm and extended it across the top of the couch looking down at her, absently smiling. He seemed to do that a lot around her. His arm fell and draped around her shoulder, wanting to be close to the girl. When she spoke, it was evident in her voice that something was wrong, and naturally he began to worry. When she had said things were going very well, he let out a soft sigh through his lips, “That doesn’t sound very convincing, Lace” he said with a soft voice. After moment of silence, he pursed his lips, trying to figure out what was going on in the girl’s head. He was about to ask what was wrong because Lacey refused to look at him. He hated when that happened, but he hated it a lot more when Lacey wouldn’t look at him. It made him worry a lot more than he should.

He was going to ask what was wrong, and then she started to talk; well, more like fumbling her words and he tiled his head. He listened intently to her as she spoke, and the more she spoke, the harder and faster his heart started to beat. At the moment, he was ignoring Rocky who was currently trying to get his attention; nipping and grabbing onto his shirt. Drew was too distracted trying to figure out what Lacey was saying. When she had said that she didn’t want him to get mad, he was so confused beyond reason. Why would he be mad at her? Then she spoke about missing her period and his eyes widened, his heart was racing hard and fast. It was up to the point where it seemed like it would jump out of his chest.

He looked down and swallowed, silent for a moment. Gently he took Rocky down, who quickly got the point and trotted to Drew’s room. Standing up, he looked at her, not quite walking towards her yet. He gulped the sudden bile in his throat, and scratched the back of his head, “Are…um…did you…y’know… get those tester…things?” he asked.

[striptlapdancer]

Lacey shook her head. "Not yet. I want to give it some time before doing that. Since it doesn't show up right away, and there's always a chance that I'm just late." She frowned not knowing what else to say. "I just thought you should know what was going on..just in case...well, you know."
