Take a breath and feel what matters. -- Desideria

[arro]

Being in an idealistic mood never did any favors for Kayden. “You up for the mall? I need to get out of here…” were his exact words nearly an hour before. Why the hell did he pick the mall? Of all the scenes in Miami, why the mall? He loved being around Desideria, there was no doubt of that, but why he had suggested they go shopping together was just baffling. He was never one hundred percent comfortable around crowds of total strangers but, living in Miami, he just couldn’t escape it. What made this setting worse than the others was that he had to walk around for a long period of time, looking around at material goods that he had absolutely no intent of buying. It was exhausting.

Running his fingers through his shoulder-length brown hair, he let out a barely audible sigh and surveyed his surroundings. Maybe, just maybe, he would be able to survive if he could sniff out a Starbucks. Suddenly aware of how unsociable he was being towards a woman he knew as well as his own twin sister, he looked at Desideria and nudged her, saying with a smile, “We should stop by a children’s store or something and pretend that we’re teenage parents shopping for our toddler… Just to see how many old women give us the evil eye.” The funny thing was, Kayden usually would never come up with an idea like that unless he had been drinking. Lately he had found himself stepping out of the reclusive shell that he had covered himself in for nearly a year now. How he could make a decision like that without even sensing it completely perplexed him, but it also put him in the highest of spirits. He was finally starting to regain some self-confidence and with that, he was able to start living his life again with as much normality that he could obtain as a shy teenager in Miami.

desi had just been hanging out, lying on her bed, smoking a cigarette, and listening to some music, when kayden had come in and asked if she was up for going to the mall. desi had smiled at her best friend, before pulling herself up, dumping her cigarette out the window, and following him out the door. that was an hour ago, and since then kayden had been pretty much ignoring the blonde. she didn't mind too much, but it was a tad disconcerting that he was not talking to her. she knew that he was not a big fan of large crowds, and though they did sometimes go shopping together it was usually when they really and truly had nothing better to do or if they had a purpose on going - or if desi was going to work at the abercrombie and fitch store she worked as a cashier at -. desi was just about to bring something up when kayden made a suggestion that had her giggle and smile, and loop her arm in his.

"kaydie, we gotta do that now," desi said with a smile. even though she smiled and she looped her arm in his, desi could tell that there was something different with kayden. you were not best friends with someone for nothing. she slowed down a little from dragging her best friend with her in her excitement, but still kept her arm in his. still, this would be fun - there was absolutely nothing romantic between kayden and desideria, so stupid things like this were totally fun for the southern cutie. as they walked along desi spoke again. "kaydie, we're havin' a cute li'le baby girl... with your hair, an' my eyes, an' she's gonna be a chubby baby.. but cute chubby, 'cause those babies are so adorable," desi stated with a smile as she looked up at him. she was not exceptionally short, five foot two inches, but it was still considerably short enough to put her below most other peoples' heights. she didn't mind though, desi loved her height - she had always been short - and she loved it because it just made her seem so much cuter.. well, she thought so anyway.

desi pulled her best friend to a stop right outside of the dolphin mall's baby gap store, and turned to him. "last chance to back out, baby daddy," she laughed her tinkling laugh. it was so farfetched that anything like this could happen between them that it just made her want to laugh so much. kayden thought of her as one of the guys, he was hardly going to jump into bed with her - at least, not like that - and it just made it so laughable because the situation between them would never arise. now, between kayden and some other girl, sure, but between kayden meyer and desideria hall. no. freaking. way.

Taking a deep breath, Kayden looked down at her and nodded confidently. He smiled brightly as he put his arm around her and settled his hand on her hip. He didn’t find it exceptionally convenient to be a foot taller than her and the majority of everyone else in the world. It would have been much easier to do numerous things had he been a nice five foot ten inches instead of a towering six foot three. Regardless, he held her closely and led her cheerfully into the store.

Once inside, he took a few long strides forward before taking his arm away from her and shaking his head slowly. He sifted meaninglessly through the piles of toddler clothes for a couple of seconds before turning to Desi and saying, “Sweetie, you know that I love our little girl with every part of me. I just don’t see exactly why we have to go out and spend so much money on material goods that she’ll grow out of in a month or so. It’s only her third birthday, by the time she’s five she’ll most likely have forgotten about all of the things we’ve gotten her in the past year. I think we might as well just take her to the zoo so she can see all of her favorite animals. Or maybe drop her off at grandma’s house so that mommy and daddy can have alone time. Afterall, she has been frequently asking for a baby brother and I’m starting to wonder why we haven’t tried for one. It’s not like we’re going to complete college any time soon anyway, with our current little angel.” At the end of this little rant he looked up to see how many looks he was receiving from the people around him, there were a couple. He smiled a little and leaned in towards his “girlfriend” and whispered, “What’s her name? I feel stupid using pet names.”

Realizing that people were beginning to turn their attention elsewhere, Kayden jumped back into conversation with, “Maybe we should get married. That way we’ll have a real reason to start a bigger family. We’re over eighteen now so we can get the permit without parental permission, which we couldn’t do before. Desi, I want another baby.” He concluded this time by kissing her on the cheek and then turned back to the piles of clothes, looking through them once again. He didn’t bother to look up this time around, doing so would make him smile or laugh. As he had learned in the drama class he took his senior year of high school, breaking character was the absolute worst thing an actor could do, it made the whole scenario seem less realistic. Not that Kayden having a child at nineteen, especially with Desideria was in anyway realistic. Still, he was finding this whole game quite amusing.

desi snuggled in close to her best friend when he put his arm around her, and settled his hand on her hip. this position was not made easy by either of them, him with his exceptional six feet and three inches, and her with her mediocre five feet and two inches. desi did not mind her height, she had actually come to pretty much love it. she was short, big woop, it just made it easier to jump up on her friends' backs. she nuzzled into kayden as he steered them into the store, and cooed at the cute little onesies and other baby clothes. the clothes were adorable, but it still made desi want to laugh hysterically at the absurdity of their game.

kayden turned to her, and desi paused in her shifting through clothes when he began to speak. when his words sunk into her brain, desi play-frowned at kayden. "babe, you cannot tell me you really think that, do you? i mean, seriously, three years old or not she deserves every little thing that we can give her. a visit to the zoo does not hold up against nice clothes.. trust me, kaydie dear, girls - no matter their age - love clothing," desideria giggled, not because she was one of those idiot, always-giggling girls, but because she was one of those girls who did not care what clothing she wore. so, she worked in abercrombie and fitch, but she was not one of those girls who would go on endless shopping trips for a hours on end. in fact, a hell of a lot of her clothes were stolen borrowed from kaydie, or her other guy friends.

desi smirked up at her best friend, and practically purred up at him playfully, all while trying not to burst out laughing at their grandiose ruse. "i wouldn't be adverse to that last suggest, baby.. maybe we should do that anyway, when it's not her birthday.." desi smiled up at kayden, and gave a tug to his belt loops. "but," she began again when she let go of him and turned back to the clothes, "we would obviously have to drop her off with yours.. my parents are still not talking to me. so disapproving," desi frowned at the little pink onesie with a heart on the front. the truth was that desi's parents had never been there for her, and she had been in foster care since she was eleven up until the past year.

des began to chew her lip when kayden asked her what 'their baby's' name was., which she was apt to do when she was thinking. while thinking, she gave a side glance at the people surrounding them. they were definitely too interested in their conversation. "oh, let's, kaydie. please! bella would love to have siblings, i just know she would," desi said with a smile up at kayden. "you know, i've always wanted a beach wedding, kaydie.. they're so romantic." des lowered her voice only a little, as if she were trying to whisper, but was staying with their charade. "maybe we can have our alone time, and then set the wedding when we know i'm pregnant.. of course, i'd look like a tramp, but anything to piss off mummy and daddy. eh?" des smirked up at kayden, before biting down on the inside of her cheek - this was an act of stopping herself from giggling - and turned back towards the clothes.

THIS POST IS COMPLETE, WITH 604 WORDS TO SHOW FOR IT. DESIDERIA JESSALYN HALL IS PLAYING TAG WITH KAYDEN GERETH MEYER WHILE WEARING THIS. MACKIE JUST WANTED TO SAY, LALALA. THEY'RE SO CUTE. AND DES HAS A DIRTY MIND LOL.

[arro]

”I’m going to tell you this once,” Kayden said playfully, putting his hand on her jaw and looking into her eyes, ”I am not going to raise a little princess. I want her to be a daddy’s girl but in a sports and outdoorsy way, not in a spoiled way. She’s going to play soccer and football, not dance or spend all of her time at this god damned mall.” This would have been a little harsh if he had said it with a serious tone, even for their little role-playing game. Fortunately, Kayden was a master at showing when he was teasing by just giving a simple but charismatic smile. Stepping in front of her, he pressed his chest against hers and wrapped his arms around her slim waist. It was almost comical, their height difference, and he was extremely tempted to just rest his chin on the top of her head. He refrained, however, and pressed his lips against her forehead instead. ”I’m just joking, Baby…” He told her, smiling once again, ”She can be a princess if she’d like.” Oddly enough, he didn’t find any of this public affection weird. He didn’t have a girlfriend to speak of at this point, so it was perfectly okay in his mind to treat Desi like she was his partner.

What an opportunity for further loss of face, he realized as she mentioned her parents being disapproving. ”Well of course,” Kayden suddenly said in the loud voice he had learned in the drama class mentioned before, ”We were sixteen when I knocked you-” He paused and glanced at the people around him, as if he had just realized that they could hear what he was saying. He cleared his throat a little and said in a softer voice, ”When I knocked you up…” Acting embarrassed, he looked down at the floor and began straightening out his black, v-neck t-shirt. Alright, so it was Desideria’s, not his. In his defense, it was slightly too big for her anyway and he had never seen her wear it. He was unsure if she had even recognized that he was wearing it. Now his blue skinny jeans, feminine as they seemed, were his own (and yes, they were made for men).

”A Beach side wedding?” Kayden asked her, shaking his head ever so slightly, ”That seems a little sappy, doesn’t it? Why can’t we just go with the normal approach and get married in a church? Sure, it’s equally cliché but in a traditional way.” He stopped to think for a moment before saying, ”I think we should have the wedding first so that you’re not puking or something during the ceremony. And then we can go all out on our honeymoon, no protection or anything.” This wasn’t something he minded saying to Desideria at all. In fact, he was more comfortable talking to her about sex than he was talking to anyone else. It was just something that came with the close relationship. She was pretty much a guy to him in the sense that he had no problem coming home and telling her all about the lady of the night that he had met while taking an intoxicated stroll around the streets at one in the morning. Luckily enough, that given scenario had only been true for two of his various one night stands that had resulted over the past year due to his newfound devotion to alcohol.

”No, never mind that,” he said after seconds of what could be assumed as contemplation, ”I like your plan better. A beach side wedding does sound quite appealing, actually.” In reality, he would never agree to a nuptial on the sand, it drew too much attention to the event. He would be much more comfortable having his wedding at a small chapel with only a couple of guests. This didn’t mean that he wanted to be wed at a tacky, Vegas chapel; just that a quiet and informal wedding would be his preference. However, he did comprehend that meeting a woman that would see eye to eye with him when it came to that was next to impossible.

when kayden took hold of her chin in his mock-telling off, desi stuck her tongue out at her best friend. all of this playing off of each other was rather fun, and desi wanted to burst out laughing hysterically at the looks that they were getting from the people around them. and that woman had totally already chosen what she was getting for her own little one, she was completely just standing around to hear desi and kayden. desi leaned up on her toes and wrapped her thin arms tightly around kaydie's neck, before leaning back a little and just sort of standing in his embrace, and laying her head on his chest. he was way to tall to stay on her tip toes for too long. "okay. she is already such a daddy's girl, anyway, she just loves you so much. why wouldn't she? you are you," desi smiled.

desi glanced around at the people as well, and then looked down at her feet. "but it was our choice, kaydie.. i love you. my parents are just complete and utter morons," des muttered quite loudly to her best friend. the people around them definitely heard it, and the blonde could see out of her eye that same woman was actually staring at them now. two of those things were true, she did love kayden but in a completely platonic way, and her parents were morons. "hey," des said, drawing out the single word, "i like romantic and sappy. and church marriages are so boring, and you know how i feel about boring things..." desi paused for a second, and smiled. "eh, but you're right, we should definitely wait.. puking on my wedding day does not sound very nice.. but, you have totally made me looking forward to the after, now, baby," des said with a second, light tug to kayden's belt loops. even if she had tugged harder, it wouldn't have had much of an effect on kayden, him being so much taller than her - she probably wouldn't have even budged him. des clapped when kayden said that they could have 'their' 'wedding' on a beach. "goodie," she said with a giggle.

”Desi, you are so short…” Kayden whispered to her in a voice inaudible to anyone standing around, ”This is reason number thirty two why we could never really be together.” He smiled slightly to show her that he was joking before suddenly raising his voice again and saying, ”Oh, Babycakes, you know that I love her too. My life revolves around our little girl. She’s part of you and therefore, she’s absolutely perfect.” He could almost imagine this daughter of theirs that they had made up. Envisioning holding her tightly and kissing her on the head made him long for the happiness that he saw in his parents’ eyes when they were around his toddler sister. It had been way too long since he had visited his family, he hadn’t seen them since Christmas, and he was starting to miss their chaotic lives. He had never realized how lucky he was to have them until they were states away. Of course, when this little fantasy came true and he did have children, he would do a few things differently than his father had. Not that Daniel Meyer was a bad father; he loved his kids to death and would do anything in the world for them. He had been promiscuous as a young adult and a real bad boy, so when he and Nicole had children, he never really grew up. This resulted in him being very lenient when it came to supplying Kayden, Karlie, Trace, and Spencer with alcohol and marijuana and allowing them to have alone time with their boyfriends and girlfriends. As fun as it was for the teenage boy, Kayden had vowed never to be so easy going with raising his children.

The tugging on his belt buckles was actually beginning to become a bit much for Kayden, though he’d never really admit it. It had just been a few weeks since he had gotten any and he was finding it exceptionally easy to be turned on by the simplest gestures. Not wanting his arousal to grow anymore and get extremely obvious, he took her hands in his and kneeled down on one knee. Good, subtle escape right? ”Let’s make it official, then,” he told her, staring her right in the eyes as he continued, ”I was going to ask you on the beach and I have the ring picked out at home. But if our wedding’s going to be on the beach, I might as well ask you right here. Desideria Jessalyn Hall, will you marry me?” He glanced around at the reactions from different people, some were shocked and some seemed happy for the ‘couple’. It was hard to keep from laughing at their lack of knowledge on the situation.

desideria laughed at that, "so you're making a list now, are you? and our height issues only make number thirty two? because you know it's not just my being so short, mister might as well be eight foot tall." des just smiled at what kaydie said next, since it was to the benefit of the store's actual customers standing around and near the 'couple'. she could almost imagine this little fake child of theirs, even though it would never actually come into existence, and desi was not even completely sure she wanted kids herself. she loved children, she had always been a good babysitter to her foster siblings over the years. however, lou-anne and the other personalities that des' dissociative identity disorder would make it difficult for her to look after kids full time. what if lou-anne decided to switch when she was looking after them. or worse, what if she passed on the disorder... desideria could not deal with knowing that she had caused such difficulties in someone else's life. though she would make sure to keep her child happy and out of harm's way, the possibility that traumatic events would lead to personalities would be greater for them, because of her. but enough fretting, because this was fun - she loved doing this sort of thing with her friends, especially kayden because they were just such good friends. she could never regret being knocked over by him at the starbucks where he worked.

desi forced out a gasp, and removed one of her hands from his grasp to cover her mouth with. this was mostly because the effort to keep from laughing was getting to her, but also because isn't this what the movies always portrayed a reaction to a proposal. and they were acting, they should totally audition for a television series or something. that thought only made the want to laugh still greater. the people around them were really into what was going on with her and kayden. people and their naturally nosy natures. "oh kayden! of course i'll marry you. oh!" desi pulled on kayden's shirt to get him to stand, realizing as the action allowed her to look at his shirt that it was definitely one of hers. not that it mattered, they probably had enough of each other's clothing to go around, but it did make her want to laugh. desi pulled her best friend into a hug, as the people around them were sighing and smiling at the 'young love'.

Kayden smiled slightly and said quietly, ”Yes, I know that I’m a freak. I’m six three, my dad is six foot, my mom is five seven, and my twin sister is like five eight.” His height had always been a frequently discussed topic considering that no one in his family for generations had been taller than six feet. However, Kayden had reached six foot one before he started high school and by the end of it, he had grown another two inches. What he had in height though, he lacked in muscle. How was he supposed to appear masculine when he looked like a tree branch? Seriously, his sister often teased him and said that if she put on platform shoes, they would look very much the same. He probably would not have gotten upset by that if it wasn’t totally true but he blamed her partially for encouraging him to borrow her clothes so that he could look like a member of one of her beloved boy bands. He had always preferred listening to classic rock bands or Brand New over those pop musicians but that apparently didn’t stop him from acquiring their style. However, he had really proved that sometimes a guy that is lanky, poetic, and shy can become just as lusted over as the football playing jocks. As much as he despised crap like popularity, his sister had been on the top and therefore he was just as well known.
It took everything that he had to keep himself from laughing when Desideria acted so strongly to his proposal. They were beyond amazing when it came to this little improvisation scene. Still, he was feeling like it was getting less and less believable and that most people were losing interest. He hugged her back for a moment, carefully considering what he was about to do. Desideria could become angry or uncomfortable with him but he didn’t really believe that she would. So, taking a slight sigh, he pressed his lips against his and kissed her for a moment, letting his hand stray to her ass. Suddenly, he regretted doing it, the two had zero interest in one another and he had just given them a first kiss to speak of. He quickly withdrew his hand and whispered, ”I’m so sorry… That was stupid… I took it too far.”
