Edward in Progress

Cat smiled. “Okay then.” She said.

Caitlin smiled. “Sometimes I feel she doesn’t give herself credit.” She said. “I would love to have her there.”

Cat came out of the car at once with the doughnuts box in her hands. “We can order to go and hang on that park. I’m sure they won’t let us eat that there.” She said meaning the doughnuts.

Eddie shook his head. “It’s Wendy. She tries to give the least credit to herself, as much as she tries”, he chuckled, as he parked the car and walked out of it.

Cat giggled and held Henry’s hand. “Sweetie. You are way too cute when you are lost. Don’t worry, our house it’s still gonna be dark wall free.” She said and tiptoed to peck him.

Cat smiled. “Even if I didn’t have my car I wouldn’t be dependent of you. I can take the bus or Uber. I don’t want my car to be in the middle of anything, so we can check where I can park it then.” She smiled.

Cait shrugged. “Yeah, I mean. I have talked with her a few times.” She said and windened her eyes and looked at Eddie. “That would be awesome. Could you? Do you think Wendy wouldn’t mind?”

Henry looked at her rather confused, as Cat started talking. “Okay”, he nodded, as he got what she was saying and chuckled, when she pecked him. 

Henry licked his lips, as Cat was talking. “If it’s like that and you wouldn’t mind the bus or the uber, fine. But, I’m pretty sure that my garage is fine and there’s always a place by the pavement”, he said, as he found a parking spot for them a a few steps away from the coffee shop.

Cat bit her lower lip. “You’re too cute.” She said. “And I was talking about dark walls. I don’t like rooms painted in dark color. And I’m not gonna throw your sheets away, just add mine to the rotation.” She shrugged.

Cat came into the car and put the doughtnuts box on her lap. “What about my car? Does it fit on your garage? Should I sell it?” She asked.

Cait came into the car again and crossed her legs. “My sister… Well, one of them, asked me to help her buy a present for a friend of hers… And I’m not sure I’m the right person for it. We’ll probably go tomorrow to the mall.

Henry gasped. “You’re gonna get used to that and I need to get used to...those stuff coming out of my mouth”, he pouted, trying to shake that off. “I don’t have dark walls”, he squinted his eyes and shrugged. “Sure, that’s a given”, he nodded.

Henry waited for Cait and Eddie to get into their car before he could start driving. “I am not sure. I think it fits. But I’d pretty much like you to be independent and not wait for me to drive you there or use my car”, he made a pause. “If it doesn’t fit, you can always park it outside.

Cait bit her lower lip as he said that and she glanced at Henry. “Yeah. Henry is my best friend… I trust him with my life. And I still can’t open up about certain things… And I’m sure he has his secrets too. But if he shares it with Cat, I’m happy. I think that made us better, with each other.” She smiled at him.

Cat stared at Henry as he said that and then tried to hide her smile. “Oh, so you won’t mind if I paint all the furniture pink?” She said trying to be serious, when she couldn’t. Catherine shrugged. “Nothing dark… I don’t like dark colors for rooms.”

Cait thought a little trying to follow Eddie’s track of the daughnuts, and she didn’t remember giving it to Cat. The ginger girl windened her eyes. “Right. It’s in my car.” She opened a wide smile before handing the keys to Henry. “Guide us there. You follow us.” She said the last part for Eddie and Cait.

Eddie smiled as Cait started talking and followed her gaze as she looked at Henry. “It’s true”, he nodded and then moved to kiss her cheek.

Henry smirked as Cat sait that. “I won’t mind if you paint all the furniture in our daughter’s room pink...so...”, he shrugged, feeling rather surprised that he wasn’t out of his comfort zone, when he talked about that. “I don’t have dark sheets. So, my sheets remain as they are, until further notice”.

Cait thought a little. “Right… Maybe he doesn’t show it as… Intensely as Cat does.” She said. “I do believe he holds it. Maybe Cat helps him push it out.” Caitlin smiled.

Cat bit her lower lip. “Yeah, I still remember that day. Thank you.” She whispered the last part.

Cat looked around. “I don’t think I’ll change much. Just the second room.” She said and bit her lower lip. “And we’re definitely using mine bed clothe.” She said with a smile.

Cait smiled. “Henry, is there a coffee shop nearby?” She asked and Cat nodded. “Where are the doughnuts? Henry has his head in it all morning.” She said.

Eddie smiled, looking at Cait answer. “Yeah”, he nodded. “And I do believe it myself. Who knows maybe he opens up to Cat when they are alone?”, he shrugged. “I’m guessing...considering...what happened with us. Opening up-wise...”, he lowered the tone of his voice.

Henry tried to ignore what Cat whispered, but instead he smiled at that. “You’re welcome”, he whispered back, as he kept rearranging the stuff in Cat’s car, in case they could fit more in.

Henry shrugged at that. “I don’t mind whatever you do”, he smiled and then instantly widened his eyes. “It’s a clean one for now....”, he said, staring at her. “What color is the one that you want to change it with?”.

Cait put her box inside the car and looked at Henry and Cat. “I think Henry is as happy. But he doesn’t show his happiness as truthfully as Cat does.” She giggled and leaned to kiss Eddie’s cheek. “Thanks for coming to help.” She bit her lower lip and leaned her head on Eddie’s shoulder. “But let’s get in with it. Your daughnuts are calling us.” She said.

Cat came back with Turner on her hands and blinked. “I don’t remember him being that heavy.” She said to Henry.

They have left things on Henry’s house and Cait started opening a box when she stopped. “Hey… What about coffee time before unpacking? We’ve carried boxes all morning.” She suggested and looked at Eddie. Cat pouted thinking. “Well, I think we deserve a pause, right, babe?” She asked Henry.

Eddie smiled lightly and double-checked on the boxes. “Truthful is a weird word to use for that”, he made a pause. “Since the first time I first saw him in NYADA, he has that...holding-too-much-inside-of-him vibe”, he pouted. “I hope he doesn’t explode. I mean, I remember he almost fought with you and Cat at the same time, the first time we sorta...went on a double-date”, he chuckled, as Caitlin kissed his cheek. “It’s my pleasure”, he nodded. “Okay, let’s go”, he nodded.

Henry was too concentrated on putting the suitcases and boxes in his the car, when Cat appeared and instantly took Turner in his arms and moved himself closer to his car. “Oh well-you haven’t carried him from the toy store to your house. He’s still as heavy”, he said and opened his car to put the teddy bear in and put a few more stuff as well”.

Eddie nodded at her and bit his lower lip. “I basically didn’t follow the other Mary Poppins’ play script. Not the movie’s either. We’re keeping the songs, if they give us the rights… And I reread the originals and I still have doubts… So please… If it’s okay… I’d like that. If we read it outloud.” He smiled at her. “That’s an idea yeah…” He nodded. “You can tell her.” Eddie nodded at Cat. “Noted.” He said and continued, looking around. “It’s the right amount, I think. Are you going to bring furniture to Henry’s house?” He asked her. Eddie widened his eyes and nodded, once Cat said that and followed Cait to the kitchen. He took one box that was rather light and let it down instantly, thinking that it was the lighter of the two. He, then, took the other one. Even if he knew it would be heavy, he groaned in surprise, as he lifted it up and turned to Cait. “I’m good, I’m fine.” He nodded and headed off the kitchen and out of the house. Henry was too lost, as he watched Cait and Eddie move around and blinked as Cat said that. “My mind is in that doghnuts.” He said and went out, as well to get to Cat’s car.

Cait smiled widely. “It would be pleasure.” She said. “And I’m sure Miss Adler would love to help.”

Cat shook her head. “No… I don’t need the furniture. “Just my things.” She smiled.

Cait saw Eddie taking both boxes and bit her lower lip. “If you are sure…” She said and took the other box, following Eddie to the car.

Cat giggled. “We’ll eat them in a bit, okay?” She said. And moved her box to her car. “I’ll go get Turner.” She said and rushed back to the house. Cait waited for Eddie on his car to help him put his boxes in it.

Eddie smiled at that. “That would be lovely-thank you”, he nodded.

Eddie smiled at Cait and let the heavy box on the pavement by his car. He unlocked it and bit his lower lip, staring at Cait for a moment and then looked at the other couple, near Cat’s car. “Cat is so happy about it”, he whispered at her.

Cait sigh. “I think so. I need to check the next semester, but I think so.” She giggled. “If you need, we could go through the script out loud and help you see how it is.” She said. “I can talk to miss Adler. She might know some people.” She said.

Cat smiled widely at Eddie. “Good. We decided that three boxes will go to your car. So we can start with the two that are on the kitchen and one from the living room.” She said. “It is!” Cat looked at Eddie. “I still can’t believe I had so many stuff. I sold some and mom took some… And I still have those many boxes.” She blinked.

Cait listened to Cat and nodded. “I’m gonna get one from the kitchen.” She said. Cat nodded. “Eddie, you should probably help Cait… The kitchen box is kind of heavy.” The red girl windened her eyes. Cat then looked at Henry. “Chop chop, we want to finish the moving today.” She said playfully at him.

Eddie nodded at her and bit his lower lip. “I basically didn’t follow the other Mary Poppins’ play script. Not the movie’s either. We’re keeping the songs, if they give us the rights....and I reread the originals and I still have doubts...so please...if it’s okay...I’d like that. If we read it outloud”, he smiled at her. “That’s an idea yeah...”, he nodded. “You can tell her.

Eddie nodded at Cat. “Noted”, he said and continued, looking around. “It’s the right amount, I think. Are you going to bring furniture to Henry’s house?”, he asked her.

Cait shurgged. “I don’t need to dance for the plays I’m gonna audition to.” Cait resides her eyesbrowns. “And? You can’t just say you’re in talks and don’t say what is being talked. How many people do you have on your side?”

Cat pouted. “Yes, some of them are collectable and very expensive.” She said. Cait smiled at Henry as he opened the door. “Hey. Oh, where is Cat?” She asked. Cait blinked. “That is Eddie’s treat. A few doughnuts for our breakfast. Can we come in?” Cait asked. Cat was bringing the box to the living room and she smiled. “Sure, Cait. Come on in. Eddie, hi.” She waved at the boy. “How are you?”

Eddie raised his eyebrows. “So, you’re done with tap dance in your course?”, he asked her. “And we are still searching for a couple of producers and costume designers and all about the...art aspect of it all. I’ve been also working on the screenplay”, he bit his lower lip. “It’s very new. When I told you about Mary Poppins the first time, I haven’t agreed and we were only two people”, he said. “Now we are a very small crew”.

Cait giggled. “I wouldn’t be surprised. But will see.” Cait but her lower lip. “Manly modern dance, a little bit of hip hop, what is not my thing. One jazz… And I guess that is it.” She smiled at Eddie. “How’s the cast for Bonnie? Doing good? I haven’t got the chance to see the new cast.”

Cat smiled. “Okay, so you can carefully take my doll’s boxes. Carefully.” She repeated. “And I’ll take one of clothes in my room.” She said and went to her room.

Cait took off her seat belt and came out of the car, waiting for Eddie at the door, and knocked on it.

“You’re done with tap dance?”, he asked her. “They’re doing well. The two main protagonists are not used to rehearsals a lot and...we added a few more things, as well. I’m in talks to add a new song...inbetween scenes”, he bit his lower lip. “Other than that..I’m also in talks with that...dream project”, he made a pause to cough, “I’ve told you about”, he bit his lower lip and got out of his car, following Cait to the door.

Cait shrugged. “Their relationship was kind of all in inverse. They were friends, then friends with benefits, then denial. Then engagement… And now moving in.” She smile. “I guess what works for them is just different.” She said. “Of course I want to get more, but if I get at least one… It will be work already. So I’m hoping for at least one acceptance.” She said.

Cat giggled. “I never jump on you while we are dancing. Just after. But… I’ll work on telling you in advance about me jumping on you.” Cat shook her head. “No… I just finished closing them.” She pointed at a 4 boxes in her living room. “And I have 5 in my room, two on my doll’s room and one in the kitchen.” She counted. “I guess I can put my dolls on my car. And more three boxes. In my car. You’ll take Turner, answering to your question, and 4 boxes. And Eddie and Cait take the last three.”

Eddie smiled as Cait answered. “I guess”, he nodded. “I don’t know if you can expect from them to first have a kid and then get married, if you follow that pattern”, he chuckled. “What kind of...dances are there?”, he asked. “That you’re going to be examined in?”, he asked and parked his car, close to Cat’s house.

Cait though a little. “Yeah, Cat’s. She’ll have boxes to move to Henry’s, I think.” She said and took the box Eddie handed her. “Hmm. Doughnuts.” She said and smiled at the boy. “I scheduled a few tests for next month. Get some work. I wish I pass in at least one.”

Cat bit her lower lip. “You caught me just fine this time.” She giggled. Cat kissed him deeply before let go of his waist with her legs and standed in front of him. “All the boxes are sealed. We just gotta get them to our house.” She nodded.

Eddie nodded at that and bit his lower lip. “It’s a big step that they’re moving in together. Although, a little weird I might say. That...they got engaged first and then moved in?”, he raised his eyebrows. He smiled and looked ahead. “Why only at least one?”, he asked.

Cait checked herself in the mirror for the last time, being sure she was dressed appropriately for the occasion. As she received Eddie’s text she came out and rushed to get on the car. “Hey there hon.” She said and leaned to peck him. “Are we going to Cat’s or Henry’s?” She asked. “How are you today?”

Cat pursed her lips. “Sure… I’m gonna need their car too.” She texted back. Cat finished closing the last box when she heard Henry on the house. The girl started running and jumped on Henry, holding his neck and wrapping her legs on his waist. “Hiiiiiii.” She said and and kissed his cheek.

“Hey”, he said, once Cait walked in the car and kissed her back. Eddie handed her the bag with the doughnuts and smiled. “I think Cat’s? What do you think?”, he asked. “This is for all four of us-something like a moving in-breakfast present”, he said explaining his gift. “I’m good, I guess”, he took a deep breath. “I’ve done a few errands since I woke up and now I’m excited that we are going to meet Cat and Henry”, he said, as he started driving. “How are you?”, he asked.

Moving in & Dramas

Cait was really happy for Henry and Cat, and be asked to help on their move, felt really good. She dressed and texted Eddie that she was waiting for him.

Cat couldn’t be more excited. Maybe just on the wedding day. She packed her things on boxes and separated all she wanted to take to Henry’s house. Cat texted Henry asking him to come by, as she couldn’t fit it all in her car.

Eddie was rather excited they were going to hang out with Henry and Cat, again. So, he got ready and drove to the nearest baker shop to get a few doughnuts. Once he got out, he got the text from Cait and smiled with that, telling her that she was gonna be there in a few minutes. He placed the packet of doghnuts on his lap, as he got into the driving seat and drove to Cait’s. Once he arrived he sent her another text to come out. He felt much closer with Cait, even if they were dating a few years, and the pace that they were opening up was just fine.

Aww that’s so great. Really.

I think so too. I hope the same for you and Henry.
