[IN A HOSPITAL. chilling next to Laura]

Hey. I'm not going to ask how you're doing, because I know I hate answering that when I'm in the hospital. Obviously I feel like crap.

Then you probably haven't read this one.

Or the other six I brought too.

[duplicut.livejournal.com]

. . . seven books?

[needsahandjob.livejournal.com]

They're short!

[duplicut.livejournal.com]

Okay.

[needsahandjob.livejournal.com]

Though I'm not just going to read stupid kid's books. I have my pride.

[duplicut.livejournal.com]

Pride? I do not understand.

[needsahandjob.livejournal.com]

It's embarrassing! Though fine, seeing as you never had anyone read these to you, it's probably okay.

[duplicut.livejournal.com]

Why is it embarrassing?

[needsahandjob.livejournal.com]

You're supposed to listen to them when you're a kid. Except ... you didn't get to, obviously, so you wouldn't know that.

[duplicut.livejournal.com]

. . . that is not embarrassing.

[needsahandjob.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but you grew up with that crazy bitch who hurt Cess.

[duplicut.livejournal.com]

Kimura.

[needsahandjob.livejournal.com]

I'm not calling her by a name. She doesn't deserve one.

[duplicut.livejournal.com]

. . .

[needsahandjob.livejournal.com]

She hurt you, she hurt Cess ... I'll call her the crazy bitch if I want. Because she is.

[duplicut.livejournal.com]

. . . Okay.

[needsahandjob.livejournal.com]

[pulls out THE MOST SACCHARINE STORY EVER. WHERE NO-ONE DIES. it may be a care bear book.]

You aren't allowed to tell anyone I read this to you.

[duplicut.livejournal.com]

. . . Okay.

[needsahandjob.livejournal.com]

I mean it.

[STARTS READING ALOUD.]

[this is a totally riveting story about how love and kindness will always win and then they hug.]

[ . . . :|a ]

[needsahandjob.livejournal.com]

I am so creeped out.

[duplicut.livejournal.com]

Why?

[needsahandjob.livejournal.com]

They're all kind of ... huggy.
