A Record Deal for Tomorrow(Gage)

[summer93]

"Wow...I bet your sister is adorable!" Hope smiled. "If I had a little sister, she would be the cutest kid around! I love dressing up kids. I dress up my niece whenever she comes down." She paused, thinking of all the things she did with Gracie. Gracie kind of was like her little sister. "I wanna meet her. Your sister. Can I?"

Hope cleared her throat. "My mom and dad met young, got married right out of high school, and had Izzi. They were separated a while, got back together, and had McKynzi. Alexi and I were surprises. Not meant to happen." Hope exhaled.

Gage laughed. At ten years old, Gabriella was more annoying than adorable. But hey, he’d go along with it if Hope wanted him to. “Gabby? Uh…I guess, if you came to my house or something. She’d probably be pretty weirded out if you tried to dress her up, though.” It was true. Garrett would probably be more interested in Hope’s presence than Gabriella would be,

Gage stayed silent after she explained herself. What was there to say? It was hard to imagine his parents not planning on having him. Finally, he though of something to change the subject. “Oh…So, do you play any sports?” he asked. Cliché, he knew, but he was actually curious.

notes: D: sorry that took forever

Hope noticed him question her thoughts of Gabby. When he brought up the whole dressing up thing it all clicked. "Oh my gosh...your sister is 10." She rolled her eyes and laughed. "You must think I'm stupid. My niece is like 5...she lets me do whatever. I still want to meet her though...your sister and your brother." If they were anything like Gage, she'd probably like them.

Hope cleared her throat. She knew the whole accidental birth thing would be awkward. "Um...most people wouldn't say this is a sport. But I'm a cheerleader. I dance too." She glanced at him, pulling up to Starbucks. "What about you? You have any other talents besides guitar?"

Gage laughed. “Yeah, she is,” he said. “I don’t know about that. They’d probably never leave you alone once they met you.” Sometimes his siblings were like puppies when it came to meeting new people.

He could have guessed she was a cheerleader. She certainly fit the part. He nodded, absorbing the information. The dancing didn’t really come as a surprise, either. A lot of cheerleaders danced when it wasn’t cheer season. He knew this because his sister as well as most of her friends did just that.

“Naw, it is a sport,” he said. Then he had to think for a moment as they arrived at their destination. “Not…really…” he said, then laughed. “I used to do soccer or whatever, but I’m just not super-athletic.” Gage shrugged and undid his seatbelt. Once they were completely parked, he opened his door and stepped out. He’d be waiting at the front of the car for Hope when she got there.

Hope laughed. "Well I like kids so it'll be okay." She smiled. "I have a 5-year-old niece and a 10-year-old nephew. I think I'll be fine."

"Yeah well most people don't think so..." Hope rolled her eyes. She listened to Gage speak as he got out the car. She smiled and got out the car. Hope grabbed her purse. She met him at the front of the car. "Athletic guys aren't my thing anyway." She looked at Gage. "So I'm thinking we just go get some coffee then go straight to my house." She held out her hand. "Come on..."

“You don’t like the jocks, huh?” Gage grinned and took her hand. “Sounds good,” he said, fixing his fingers so that they would be interlocking with hers. Once they got to the door, he used his free hand to push and hold it open for Hope as the annoying bell thing went off above their heads.

It wasn’t crowded inside, but it wasn’t exactly empty, either. Starbucks never seemed to be. Gage gestured towards the several empty tables available. “Which one?” he asked her.

[summer93]

"Nah...that's more of my sisters thing. Jocks are way to much for me." She smiled as he opened the door for her. She pulled him closer to her. He felt amazing next to her. She couldn't help, but think about how amazing her day had been. "I'm a really lucky girl. You know that?"

She looked around. "Um...you choose." She looked at him. "Which ever one you pick...everytime I come here i'll think of us. It'll be our table." She smiled at Gage.

[iampurple]

Gage grinned again. He seemed to be doing a lot of that today. “Oh yeah?” he asked. “Why is that?” He already knew what she would say, but asked anyways just for the ego boost.

“Okay.” Gage led her to the closest table. They stood there awkwardly for a moment as he narrowed his eyes and looked around. He realized it was stupid to come to a table. They had to order their drinks first! Besides, hadn’t she said she just wanted to get the drinks and go to her house? Or had she meant stay here, then go straight to her house and not anywhere else? Oh well. He could figure that out later.

Instead of sitting down, he led her over to the counter and looked down at her. “Ladies first.”

"Yeah..." Hope smiled at him. "Cause I have you..." She tapped his chin. If an ego boost is what he wanted, she'd give it to him.

She watched him look confused. Hope laughed. "Okay."

notes;; just wrote anything. Muse is SO dead right now...BUT the new thread can start in your dorm. They could be studying or something

[iampurple]

“So,” Gage said. “I guess we should…order our drinks now…” he knew he sounded dumb, but he didn’t quite know what else to say to fill the awkward silence that had suddenly risen between them. He started at the menu for a moment, deciding. “I will have…a caramel frappachino.”

Notes: Yep I will do that soon, I just have a lot of open threads to make at the moment so it might take a while.
