forever & ever

      “You’re so lame, Adina.” Flicks her nose and tries to get her off. “So, what have you been up to? I haven’t seen you in a while.”

                  "You like my lame, though." She flinched when her nose was flicked, giving a short glare before sighing. "Here and there--a little bit of everywhere. Why? Did you miissss me?"

      He’ll catch her this one time, but not the next. Just watch. “Cooties!”

                       She's just going to rub her body all over Ephai. "Yes, have all my cooties!" 

      Intense staring. 

                       Oh, look! Her self-proclaimed boyfriend. Cue her jumping the other. 

                                  “So you’re over me huh?” That sucked. She’s gonna miss a life without crazy Adina stalking her

                       "I was never on top of you to begin with." Grumbles because that was easily interpreted two ways. Both, leaving her a tad bitter. And whoa whoa whoa--! Adina is not even a stalker, back up. "Anyway, he's a guy with a face...And money. Lots of money. Like, a lot of money. And a beard." 

                        Oh right, that. Fact : Rejecting Adina had been a hobby for Layla, so it seemed. “Where are you going? Somewhere fancy?” Hey, can I come?

                       "I'm goin' on a date." Liar, liar pants on fire. She was actually going to the store to pick up tampons and water balloons because she has nothing better to do. 

                               “I haven’t see you in ages and you got ugly on your face. Want me to wipe it off with icy power?” Abusing her new gift 2.0 — Layla pls

                       "I've been busy." And avoiding her to ensue there was no further rejection on her part. "Um, no I'm good. You know, just put on my make-up and stuff..." This is so bullying. 

                                “Freeze muthafucka" Lame pun intended

                       Shit. She's going to turn around very slowly, trying not to make any sudden movements lest she startle Layla. "Heh...Layla. Hey there good friend of mine!"

       "Uh-deen-uh? Like is that how it is pronounced?" He asked although he already knew the basic answer to that being a solid yes to the childish like female that was going to him him the wonders of the frozen milk product. “I’m Zero."

                       "Yep! You got it! A lot of people say it like Ah-Deen-Ah. Dunno why, but it just rubs me the wrong way." Turning back around, she put a finger to her lip as her eyes scanned the area--trying to decide which way to go. "Zero? That's odd. Not bad, though. Makes you sound like the main character of an RPG."

                             And another one came for a visit. Seriously, Layla wondered how did they all find out that she was in a hospital; under isolation even. She wondered if they knew the reason she was here, it felt somewhat … embarrassing having to admit what she’d done to herself. “What?" She replied, there isn’t any hint of kindness in her voice, she was being her usual self. “If you’re here for some loving you’re not getting it. I’m having a bad mood" Seriously Layla, be nice. She’d come for a visit at least smile a little

                      Of course, Adina doesn't really mind the little attitude she got from the other. If anything, it proved that Layla was still her usual bitchy self, and that was a comforting thought. "I'm not here for that. Hospitals kinda kill the mood, you know?" Scoffing, she walked over to a lone chair, promptly taking a seat before sending a disgusted glance over to the plate of something "That looks fucking disgusting." Face scrunch. Unfortunately, she really doesn't know what to say in this situation. Shifting a bit in her seat, her eyes leveled on the very small figure sitting up in bed. 

The smile she got when she bounced him upwards, even if it wasn’t intentionally supposed to be fun, was the reward she got for being so kind to him. A giggle left plump lips, and he happily clung to her. She was nice and he loved it, it was easily shown that he’d grow attached to this woman. With puffed out cheeks, the child leaned forwards once more and pressed his little nose against her cheek, squealing softly as he rubbed it against her. He was playing around, and not at all meaning to be adorable, but of course~ He was!

                       Oh goodness, she really expected to already become so motherly over a few simple giggles and nudges. But, honestly, this child was too cute for his own good and Adina really couldn't help the fact she felt the need to buy him lots of toys and tuck him in. Oops. "Oh no!" She feigned shock, acting as if his nose pressing against her cheek was a fatal attack. Soon, her face was nuzzling up against his, blowing raspberries onto the smoothness of his neck. "Wah~ I got you!" At this rate, someone should just hand over the adoption papers. She's always had a weak spot for children.

He was so happy to get what he wanted, for this was the first time in a while that someone so easily picked him up without being so disgruntled about it. He puffed his cheeks out, and gave the girl a great big pout, as if to play with her. Mimi watched her mouth as it opened and closed, and tried to imitate her by opening and closing his own mouth— though the only words that came out of his tiny mouth were gibberish baby talk words. Grabbing her shirt, Mimi pulled himself closer to her person, and even went so far as to lean his head against her.

                       Though she was a little weary of simply picking up someone's child, she quickly decided that it was better than leaving him to get trampled by a hurried businessman's feet or kidnapped (which, she was not doing). Looking around a few more times, Adina decided that his parents really weren't present and instead turned her attention back to him; regarding his antics with a warm smile. Really, who couldn't resist an adorable child? "You can't talk yet?" That was a bit troublesome, but he wasn't crying so far so the hunt for his parents couldn't be too dire. If he even had any, that is. Giving a small laugh when his head rested against her own, the female bumped the child up to keep him from slipping. "You're really cute. Can you tell me your name, or can you not say that either?"

The excitement Mimi felt when he saw all the people surrounding him; or so he thought? was very high as he looked around at all the new faces. He waddled over to one person in particular, and tried to make nice with them, by tugging on their clothing and raising his arms up. "Uhhhp…!" He demanded softly. All he wanted was to not be alone anymore, which was why he was being so friendly to complete strangers.

                       Adina really wasn't sure how she kept getting involved in these crowds--it seemed they were all looking at something in particular, something she probably had no interest in and was about to open her mouth to give a very nasty threat of what she would do to them if they didn't move right now--however, was stopped by a tugging at her pant leg, looking down she saw a child. "What...?" She murmured, looking around for a second; it seemed the crowd had dispersed, leaving the toddler looking at her with such expectant eyes. Tilting her head and leaning down, she opened her arms, picking up the child since that seemed to be what he wanted. "Are you looking for someone?"
