TOGA TOGA TOGA!

Covet: Cadence parked the hummer and climbed out of the vehicle, waddling up to the door to knock on it. She had a large gift bag in her other hand and she was smiling happily // Felix was in the kitchen cleaning things up to closer to Steph's liking, He was scrubbing the counter with the disinfectant spray.
Alexithymiaa: (YEAH FELIX!)
Alexithymiaa: -Steph sat on the bench at the foot of her bed, desperately trying to work on some of her physical therapy exercises the doctor had given her. She had the brace and bandage off her knee and was staring down at her leg, focusing intently as she struggled to point and flex her toes. Not only was she in pain, but she was also frustrated that such a simple thing was so difficult so she was also making ridiculous angry faces. When she heard the knock on the door and Penny start barking, she lifted her head, raising her voice. "Babe? Can you get the door?"-
Covet: "Yeah I've got it." Felix called out setting the sponge down as he pushed his hair back from his face. He walked over to the door and saw Cadence, " Hey, c'mon in. What's up?" He asked as he reached down to Grab Penny while Nugget made the snorting noises around her feet.// "I wanted to drop in and chit chat with Steph and give you guys some great news." Cadence said, " But first, bathroom, you want to let Steph know I'm here?" // " Yep, do your thing" He told her then made his way to the bedroom, " Cadence is here you, want to take a break from that torture?"
Alexithymiaa: -She ran her hand over the back of her neck where she'd grown hot, raising her brows. "Cadence is here?" She paused, looking behind him. "Where?"-
Covet: "In her usual place, the Bathroom." Felix said flatly. // Cadence had finished her business and washed her hands and was making her way towards Steph's room, "Hey, that is not my normal spot, you ass. Move, I need to gab with my rockstar bestie."
Alexithymiaa: -She started to laugh, pushing her hair back behind her ear. "I dont know, kind of seems like it's your usual place." She smirked, waving her over. "What's with the bag?"-
Covet: "Fuck you both." She said as she struggled to climbed up on the bed. Once she was situated she handed it over to Steph. "Well, since it's like official and all, I thought you could use a new outfit to wear for your tour. Just because you're going to be sitting down, doesn't mean you can't look like a Rockstar." // Felix raised an eyebrow, curious about the new outfit now, because if it was a rockstar outfit it was going to be awesome.
Alexithymiaa: "What?" She asked with a smile, peering down into the bag and pulling out the dress first. She laid it out over her body, admiring it. "This is so badass." She pulled the boots out to admire them too, smirking. "You managed to make flat shoes cool. A feet not many can pull off.... pun intended."-
Covet: Cadence snickered, "A pun well earned there. It was a very you sort of look. Like, the cooler badass cousin of Dorothy. Fuck that blue and white gingham dress." // "I mean... Scarecrow would tap that." Felix said with a shrug looking at the dress.
Alexithymiaa: (I snorted at my own pun. Just so we're clear.)
Alexithymiaa: "To be fair, I also ling the blue aand white gingham dress a lot. I think it's adorable, but this is definitely way more badass. And perfect for tour. Thank you Bruce." She leaned over, giivng her a half hug before eyeing Felix. "Scarecrow isn't tapping shit unless that kitchen is clean...."-
Covet: "No problem Dick. Gotta outfit my sidekick properly afterall. Ooooh, Look at you getting him whipped into shape." Cadence said with a smirk, "And I don't want you tapping shit while I'm here. So.. at least wait until I leave." She added. // Felix scrunched his face, "It's pretty damn clean right now. I can only scrub so much before there's nothing left and I'm just making divots in the counter!" He said crossing his arms.
Alexithymiaa: "Uhuhhh..." She said to both of them, gently folding the dress to slide back into the bag and sticking the shoes inside as well. She'd put things away later when she could struggle alone. "I'll inspect later, but it better live up to your hype." She pointed her finger at him harshly, trying to keep a straight face, but it wavered and she cracked a smile. "So how are things going with the house?" // A white van with a flowery logo that read "Portland Florals" in pretty purple print pulled into the driveway, a middle aged woman in jeans and a t-shirt climbing out with a vase filled with tiger lilles wrapped in a hot pink bow. She made her way up to the front door, ringing the bell and then inspecting the card to make sure she had the right address.-
Covet: "Actually, that's the other news I came bringing. So.... we had a competitive buyer put in a bid. So then, I sent the owners an emails, asking them to definitely consider us. We're a fantastic option even though we're young. These other people just want the house to be restored to it's original colors and furnishings and dump a lot of money into making it a show house, whatever the hell that is." Cadence started in. // Felix raised an eyebrow, "You two invalids stay here, I'll go get the door as I am man of the house." He said strutting off like an ass before going to get the door seeing the lady there with flowers in her arms. "Uh... Hi there? I'm sorry, I'm taken, but those flowers are lovely."
Alexithymiaa: "Yeah really, whaat the fuck is a show house?" She asked with a sneer, instantly taking Cadence's side. "Did you offer more money?' She asked, her eyes drinking to watch Felix strut out of the room because butt. // The woman smiled at Felix, holding up the vase. "Hi. I have a delivery for...." She paused, reading the card again even though she wrote it herself from the order that was called in AND only just looked at it. It's been a long day for poor Peggy and her kids have been calling her being bratty all day. I feel for Peggy. "Steph Robinson."-
Covet: "Dude, I don't even know. But no we didn't offer more money, I wrote the owners a letter just telling them a bit about Remy and myself and where we've come from to get where we are and how excited we are to be starting a family and how we want the place to be lived in, to show it's potential as a family house." Cadence elaborated. // Felix looked at Peggy and gave her a soft look, " She's inside and can't make it out here right now, but I can sign for it and take it back to her." Felix said to the flower delivery lady.
Alexithymiaa: "I really hope the seller has a heart because I feel like that would win anyone over. And if you guys dont end up living down the block from me, I'm going to be devastated. We need lazy pool days and I need my convenient Baby B time." // Poor Peggy forced a smile, holding the flowers out to him. "No signature required. Have a good night." She said as she whirled around, heading back to her van so she could get the fuck out of there. She was so tired.-
Covet: Cadence grinned, "Oh, they definitely had a heart, I got a call earlier saying they want to close with us." Cadence said throwing her arms up with a squeal, then put her hand on her stomach, "Sorry, sorry, too excited I know." // "Thanks..." Felix walked back into the room, and inspected the card to see who it was from, just to be nosey.
Alexithymiaa: "Bruce! Oh my god! That's incredible!" She shouted, throwing her arms around Cadence to give her a squeeze. "Does anyone else know?" (The card says "It was so great to see you on Saturday. I'm so proud of how far you've come and I can't wait to get to sing with you in the future. -A & The Guys")
Covet: "No, not yet, I just got the news, right before I was on my way over. Remy's still at work, but I'll tell him when I get home." Cadence said, giving Steph a squeeze back. "It still hasn't fully sunk in for me yet, but it's such a relief knowing that we can have the new house set up in time for Baby B. // Felix glared at the card, and took it out, throwing it in the trash, because fuck Ash. The rest of the guys were cool, he guessed, but fuck Ash. He knew who those flowers actually came from. He walked into the bedroom with the flowers. "Special delivery for the lovely lady of the house."
Alexithymiaa: (THAT WAS FROM ALEX)
Covet: [Too late now. XD]
Covet: [I'm rolling with it. XD]
Alexithymiaa: "So I'm the first to know?" She asked, even more excited because she knew first and that's an honor. "It's going to be incredible. And if you need help painting or anything like that, I will totally send Felix right over." She said with a laugh because she knew he was within earshot. When he walked into the room with the flowers, her eyes went wide. "What's all this?"-
Covet: "Yeah? Awesome, we're putting Remy's parents to work too, they're going to come up and help us move and visit before Baby B gets here." She said then winced a little shifting with her hand on her stomach. "I feel like the good year Blimp." // "Don't tempt me to Tom Sawyer my way out of that one." He said as he walked in then looked at the flowers with a shrug, "I dunno, no card? Lost card? There was a lady at the door who said they were for you."
Alexithymiaa: "Well you look kickass, so stop it.I don't even want to hear about you being a blimp. You're not the one who's been sitting on their ass for weeks." She said with a roll of her eyes before looking at Felix again. "How does the card get lost on a delivery?" She asked, putting her hands out to take them, taking a deep breath to inhale the pretty scent. "They're my favorite, too. Think they're from Bryan?"-
Covet: "Tell that to my belly, I can't see my toes anymore, and I need Remy's help to shave my legs, and I can't even do my own brazillian anymore." Cadence lightly complained. // Felix furrowed his brow, "Do I need to turn my hearing aid off? Is that the type of conversation we're having? I get plenty from your husband... I don't need your side of the story too." He said holding up his hand, then shrugged, "IDK, the lady looked like she was having a long day and was ready to be done. Maybe it fell off in the truck and she didn't see it?"
Alexithymiaa: -She rolled her eyes. "Oh stop, I'm sure whatever Remy says is ten times worse. But if it makes you feel any better, any hangouts and parties I'm spending sober and staying off my feet with you?" She asked, trying to ease Cadence's mental pain a bit. "At least you'll have company." She dipped her face into the flowers again before holding the vase back out to Felix. "I'll call Bryan in the morning and ask him. Can you put these on the dresser?"-
Covet: "I feel like we need our own raised platform to be carried about on by the guys... Just saying." She asid lounging on the bed a little. // "Yeah, it totally could have been him that sent them." He said with a nod, Now you're just diggin your grave Felix. She might be imobile but she'll still kick your ass. I'll be right back." He said going to get the vase and making sure the card was pushed down into the trash well enough it wouldn't be found.
Alexithymiaa: -She smiled at Felix as he walked away, nonethewiser that he's a dumbass. "Are you kidding? He's been pushing me around in the wheelchair for a week and I'm pulling my hair out. I actually got to take a real shower this morning and I savored every second of it. I don't want to be carried around, I just want to walk dammit."-
Covet: "I'm not talking all the time, just for parties or whatver. We can go all out and get comfy fuckin togas and make ourselves look like straight up goddesses" Cadence said more as a day dream than anything else. // Felix got a vase and filled it with water, before coming back. " Keep working on that physical therapy and you'll get there." He told her taking the flowers so he could put them on the dresser for her. Cause who doesn't like to see flowers when they first wake up.
Alexithymiaa: -She tipped her head to the side, her mind drifting off into Cadence's daydream. "We should have a toga party..." She said in a daze, looking to Felix when he brought the flowers into the room. "Doesn't a toga party sound cool? Literally no one has to wear pants."-
Covet: "It'd be a good summer party too." Cadence said nodding her head. // Felix nodded, "Any party that doesn't require pants, is definitley a party I want to be at."
Alexithymiaa: (Felix's line is me.)
Alexithymiaa: "Then it's settled. We'll have a toga party. When, I don't know, but we will. And it'll be an epic no pants party." She said with a laugh, nudging her glasses up her nose. "Now I need to figure out a toga of some sort."-
Covet: "We could go sheet shopping?" Cadence said looking over at her. "Then get some gold ribbon, and some hot glue, and some gold leaves and shit?" She added. // "Well look at you busting out the crafty mom skills." Felix chirped. "Can I just wear like... a loin cloth lookin thing?" He asked putting his hands on his hips as he swung them around, "I think I could swing it." Felix smirked at his own comment.
Alexithymiaa: "I mean... we could also just order really cheap sheets online since we're just going to cut and sew them anyway." She said with a shrug. "Are you kidding? Cadence is awesome at that stuff." She instantly narrowed her eyes, letting out a scoff. "You're not going to be swinging anything unless it's behind closed doors."-
Covet: "I'm fine with that too. At least then we know they're clean." Cadence said Then started to get up. " Yeah, I used to model. So ha. And on that note of swinging things, I think I'm going to head home and tell Remy the good news about the house. You guys take care, and I'll see you later." // Felix scoffed, "Says you.. funny thing is I'd be th only one doing it sober...ish.. Weed doesn't count." He said pointing at Steph then started stripping down as Cadence walked out to head home.
Alexithymiaa: "Good, tell him the good news. I'll talk to you tomorrow, and thanks again." She called after Cadence before pointing a finger at Felix. "Arizona! You're not running around the party with your dick out. Weed or no weed." She started to frown, giving him a little pout and starting to pull her hair pins out to get ready for bed even though she was going to need his help in a minute anyway.-
