PITD 29 II : Her Willis
Seconds turned into minutes as they stood in each other's embrace, each engulfed in the other that they lost sense of time and everything else.
"You might want to sit down for this," Willis said, finally pulling away. His eyes looked sad. Leigh mused. So so sad, she had the sudden urge to fight all his battles and carry his burden with him. Instead, she simply sighed and plopped down on the nearest chair.
He paced.
That said a lot of things about how disturbing the events he turned over in his mi

"Mom!" Leigh yelled at the top of her lungs. "You forgot the carrots again!""What?" Samantha, buried under a pile of ingredients, sauce and kitchen equipment, gasped and hurriedly tossed the carrots to her daughter. Her auburn hair stuck out under her cap at different ends, each strand coloured or covered by spices, flour and something sticky she suspected was more than just butter."Why did you have to say we would cook?" Samantha wanted to know, she was way over herself trying to get the stuffing INTO the turkey and not spilling out of it. Now, the third turkey went into the

"Yeah, I promised I would bring you here and I keep my promises." He winked at her and got out of the vehicle, Leigh jumping out right after him. "I can't see the waters though, there is just...land." The area was covered with wet grass and rolling land jutting out different trees and plants. "Come on," Willis grabbed her hand, gently pulling her along the trees until a tiny part opened up. It was hidden between two small trees that anyone not looking well enough would not have found it. The path looked like it had not been trodden in a while and Leigh wondered at that. "Is it not a commercial Bay? How come it has a narrow path that looks like it is rarely ever used?" Leigh inquired. "Because," Willis drawled, taking his time to answer. "This is a path known only to the locals. It leads to a more quiet part of the Bay, away from the docks and boats." "Ahhh," that explained the un-cleared path. "One of the best parts of going to

Willis let them into the building, trying to keep himself from smiling at the look of astonishment on Leigh’s face as he reset the security system. She had been unable to keep her jaw closed since he had driven them up the driveway of the two-story glasshouse he lived with his sister.She made quite the picture with her wet hair curling about her face, pin still in place, her wet coat clinging to her body and her shoes dangling from her hands as she did a slow take of the house."So? What do you think?""What do I think?" She repeated in awe. "This place is freaking fabulous!" She told him. "I have got to tell your sister I love her place.""Hey, it’s my place too," he argued."Yeah? Whose house exactly is it?"Resigned, he hung his head "Willa's.""Don’t look so discouraged Stink, I’m sure all the mess in here is yours." True enough, the litter on the sitting room table was his. He had not been able to clean u

The loud shrill of the alarm pulled Leigh out of sleep. "Mom," she mumbled sleepily from beneath the covers, "put off your alarm!" The shrill went off again, louder than before. "Mom!" She mumbled fiercely, sleep slurring her words. "I've got it," A very distinct male voice said from somewhere above her head. Was that Willis? Why would she be hearing Willis' voice early in the morning? Was she still dreaming? Just then, she felt something press above her and the shrill thankfully went off. It was almost like the weight above her head had turned it off. But that was not her mother's alarm tone. Leigh jolted up and out of sleep, the light from the lamps blinding her momentarily when she pulled away the covers. Jaw dropped, she stared at the figure studying her with mirth dancing in his eyes. "Willis?!" "In the flesh Baby," Her eyes did a quick scan of the room. She was not in her room! "Holy shit!" Then it all came floodi

Thea was late.As usual. It didn’t surprise Leigh anymore that her best friend had the innate ability to be late at all times. She was supposed to be here since two hours ago, so they could settle in, gist and have girl talk before they went to Creamys for the After Finals Celebration as Willis had later termed it when he had called her with the final details. Carol was due to arrive any minute now to drive them to the ice cream shop and Thea was still nowhere in sight. What was worse? She wasn’t even picking up her calls not that picking up would do any good anyway but it would give Leigh the satisfaction of yelling at her.Finally, a cab pulled to the curb and a heavily loaded Thea stepped out. With the bags she carried, one would think she was relocating out of the country. That was one of the reasons she was always late. Over-packing. That and her ever perfect make up. Leigh eyed her best friend warily as she dragged her two heavy bags over. Her straigh

Leigh tossed and turned on the bed again. She lifted her head to check the bedside clock and 2:17AM glared at her with red dots like the devil's eyes.She could not sleep. No matter how hard she tried, something kept bothering her mind, keeping her awake. She looked over to where her best friend snored quietly beside her on the bed. Thea slept like a log in every situation. You could float her on water and she would still sleep. They had been driven back by Willis after the celebration earlier since Carol had had to stay back with Jeremy. A small smile painted her lips now as she remembered how happy her friend had been. Carol had practically being bustling with happiness. She had finally got her 'hottie' and Willis had asked her out to the prom.Sighing resignedly, Leigh swung her legs over, banishing any thoughts of sleeping for that night. Her mind was full of things she needed to think through, things she had put off long enough that they were coming back to haunt

Meanwhile, Willis was having after hours’ practice with his co-captain and best buddy Jeremy. It was barely two days to the biggest and final game of the season. As much as he wanted to get his head solely focused on the game, thoughts of Leigh kept popping up in them like the balls he was bouncing around Jeremy now. He knew she was out shopping and doing girly stuff with her friends but he also wished she would call him. He ached to hear her voice, to touch her, to feel her lips slide against his, to....Snap out of it Reeler, get your head in the game."You okay?" Jer asked when he shook his head for the third time in the space of minutes."Yeah..." Willis replied, bouncing the ball once and throwing it into the basket. It went round the rim once and dropped in the net.Unconvinced, Jeremy snatched the ball and went through basic routine with Willis. "That don't sound like you're okay man. Something's up?" Jer persisted, he knew if he pushed just

"Get your ass moving!" Carol grunted, pushing Leigh out of the car since she was sitting right by the door and refused to budge. "We’re going to miss the game!" She said fiercely, giving Leigh another hard push. She might look all small and petite but the girl was solid and as much as Carol pushed, she didn’t budge an inch. "Oh, come on. What is wrong with you? Are you having stage fright or something? You're not even going to be on stage," Carol let out a sigh of frustration. She would have gone out through the other door but Thea was busy retouching her make-up and refused to budge either. Did they both have something planned and were not letting her in on it? "Chill out Carol," Leigh told her. "Let's wait for Thea, then we can all go together." She reasoned. "Nah, don't wait for me. You guys go ahead and make sure we get the best seats in the house." Damn Thea and her big mouth. Did Thea not see that she was deliberately stalling here? Carol shot her a look and said "See? Even
