DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Posted August 28, 2007 "Her momma...chained her to a wall..." says quietly, unable to keep the angry tone from his voice. Normally he wouldn't tell the family stuff to just anyone, but he felt he could trust the kind doctor. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Report Posted August 28, 2007 The doctor looked to him with raised eyebrows, gently picking up Jaime's limp wrists and looking over the scars softly. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Posted August 28, 2007 "She's upset...didn't get chosen as a cheerleader 'cuz of em...." he said softly. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Report Posted August 28, 2007 The doctor nodded gently - she could understand that. Many cheerleaders prided themselves and the team they led on looks rather than actual talent and no matter what the coach said - it was the girls decision in the end as they were the ones who had to work with the new person."I can understand that unfortunatly...." Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Posted August 28, 2007 Luke shook his head. "I don't....I don't understand how girls can be so mean..." Inside he did understand though. He had seen it with some animals on the farm, especially the chickens. They would sometimes attack one of their own...attack it until it died...just for being different or weak. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Report Posted August 28, 2007 The doctor sighed and shook her head, gently putting Jaime's arm back where is had been before."Well not all of us are but we do have our moments..." Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Posted August 28, 2007 Luke nodded. "I know that. I got a cousin... she gets quite a few of em...specially when Bo and I refuse to go shopping with her." Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Report Posted August 28, 2007 The doctor chuckled as she nodded, standing up from where she had been sitting on the edge of the bed."Yeah that's a moment shared by many frustrated women...anyway, I best get moving to get your foot casted. I'll be back up with the stuff to do it very soon..." Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Posted August 28, 2007 Luke nodded a little, not looking forward to it. The thought of not using his foot fo a spell bothering him considerably. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Report Posted August 28, 2007 The doctor nodded and headed out of the room.Jaime sighed and sat up."Finally..." Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Posted August 28, 2007 Luke frowned. "How long was you awake?" Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Report Posted August 28, 2007 Jaime rolled her eyes, shaking her head."Soon as she came in...I was only dozin' an' I was gonna sit up until you two started talkin'...sheesh Dad why can't ya just ask her out the easy way...by saying 'I like ya, go out with me?' Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Posted August 28, 2007 Luke flushed. "Guess..I ain't one to do things the easy way." Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Report Posted August 28, 2007 Jaime sighed and stood up, stretching gently."And they say women give out mixed signals..." Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Posted August 28, 2007 Luke just sighed, not liking at all that he was discussing his love life with his daughter. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Report Posted August 28, 2007 Jaime eventually looked back to him, sinking down onto the side of the bed again."How much longer do I got before I have to go home?" Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Posted August 28, 2007 Luke looked at the clock. "They should be comin anytime... you anxious to leave me?" Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Report Posted August 28, 2007 Jaime laughed, raising her eyebrows."With that doctor lookin' after ya? Don't be dumb..." Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Posted August 28, 2007 "Who you callen' dumb?" asked Luke frowning though his lips hid a smile. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Report Posted August 28, 2007 Jaime gave a cheeky grin that accompanied a shrug, giggling a little. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Posted August 28, 2007 Luke reached up a hand flicking her nose. "Don't get cocky... nothin wrong wih my knee that I can't take ya over it." Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Report Posted August 28, 2007 Jaime rubbed her nose, with a frown before giggling harder as he spoke."You gotta get it outta traction first..." Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Posted August 28, 2007 "S'what I got two for..." said Luke with a smirk. "Sides I'm sure Bo'd do it if I can't..." Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Report Posted August 28, 2007 Jaime shook her head with a grin."Nah he wouldn't...he'd gimme a lecture cause he don't like hittin' girls..." Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted August 28, 2007 Author Report Posted August 28, 2007 Luke sighed. "Why couldn't you be a boy?" he teased. "Be so much easier...no dates t worry bout...no make up...no mood swings..." Quote
