52. The Jyllian Factor
Figuring the only way to get to Finn was through Drake, Jyllian managed to get herself arrested on Monday night. She made sure to wear her shortest skirt and a sheer top that didn't leave anything to the imagination.
Rumor had it, Finn met Drake a few nights a week to work as a mentor at the station.
She was determined that their lives were going to intersect! So she set her master plan into action.As the officer dragged her into the station she insisted that she needed to speak with Drake.
She made such a ruckus that Drake finally popped out of his office to calm her down.
"Jyllian, you need to lower your tone and your attitude. I can always add some extra charges to today's list. Your choice."
She kept squirming, trying to break free but it was no use. She was too high to really pull away.

Panicking that she had nothing appropriate to wear to dinner with his parents, Finn finally gave in and took Lili to King of Prussia to go shopping and he grumbled, "Lili, if you cannot find anything in this place, we are not going anywhere else. No excuses. This place has everything!" She was shocked as they walked in from the carpark at the enormity of the mall and the fact that they needed a map to get around the place. It might very well take days to find each other if they got lost. They held hands as they wandered through various stores and about two hours in, she found the perfect winter dress and black boots for their evening with his parents. He watched from where he was standing, as the look on her face changed and she walked over to him quickly, asking "Finn, what the hell are you planning to wear tonight? You cannot go to a fancy steakhouse in a cowboy outfit! That just won't do." Oh, he was in tro

The shower was running as Finn entered his room and he heard Lili singing as her voice floated through the air.

Her question snapped him out of his daydreaming and he popped his head in and asked, "Sorry, can you repeat?" "Ugh! You're just pretending that you can't hear me! Getting a free show!" She teased as she wrapped the bath towel around her little frame. "I can look!" Finn defended himself, while Lili rolled her eyes. "Anyways, I asked if you heard about the blizzard out west. We might not get back tomorrow. I was thinking, if we can't, let's just travel around until the weather clears. Anywhere but here or there!" Finn loved her innocence and he suggested, "Let's fly to San Diego for a few days and feel the sun's warmth against our skin." "Hmmm! Perfect! But now, put on you

Today was a paperwork kind of day and he was buried in numbers when Lili bound in. He was glad for this distraction as she whispered in his ear. He stop what he was doing upon registering the news. He turned and kissed the tip of her nose and said, "Hmmm! Best get married before we start a family anyways. It just means that we can keep on trying my love."

Lili wasn't in the mood to write so they took the snowmobiles out and headed over to Russ and Reese's house. The exileration of flying across the frozen fields was amazing as they were bundled underneath their winter layers. The ride was amazing and Lili teased, "It's like going over the hills and through the woods to Grandma's house, we go!" Finn laughed at her silliness and to hell with the cold attitude. It felt amazing as they raced along for the short ride to Russ and Reese's house. Someone by the name of Finn, might just have done a few cirlces in the snow and maybe a figure 8. He felt like a little kid as they raced along. Parking the snowmobiles, they took off a few layers before they walked in and scared everyone. Finn said, "Here's hoping Russ doesn't pile on more work

I only didn't like two of the dresses so far." Lili whined. This was her seventh dress and the decision was just getting harder to make. "Nothing stands out as special." she was starting to whine and get frustrated. She was a ball of confusion and finally Reese opined, "Lili, you are beautiful and the important thing is that Finn will love you on that day no matter what you are wearing." "Oh, I know but pictures last forever!" They all laughed at the face that she made

They don't have to hide it. I don't need to hog the limelight." "If I announce it, Anders will kill me," Finn said with a mischievous grin. "Yeah, but it's Stacey that you better watch out for.
