Housewarming Party (open RP)

[a_time_slip]

Today was her housewarming. Janie checked over everything several times to make sure it was all ready.

The house was completely spotless. She'd scrubbed every corner and made sure it was nice and clean for anyone who came by. Every picture on the wall was straight and the furniture all looked picture perfect. She had lots of snacks prepared and a few activities so people wouldn't get bored. Later, there would be a nice dinner.

She wasn't sure where Ian or Kelly were, but as long as they weren't making messes, it didn't matter at the moment.  Everything had to be perfect for the party.

You can't expect me to stop worrying.

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

I know.

[malcolmeffect.livejournal.com]

Just so you know. Ian smiled and kissed her forehead.

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

She smiled up at him.

Ian was just happy to hold her for now. What did you make to eat for the party?

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

I made meatballs, wings, finger sandwiches, broccoli puffs and a vegetable platter. Also a fruit platter, and macaroni salad.

Uh.. no wonder you were running around here all day.

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

I think I handled it well.

[malcolmeffect.livejournal.com]

You could have let us help. Ian teased her a little.

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

You and Kelly disappeared at some point.

[malcolmeffect.livejournal.com]

UH.. after you told us we were in the way.

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

...I told you both that? I'm sorry.

[malcolmeffect.livejournal.com]

Yes, you did.

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

I'll apologize to Kelly. I didn't mean anything bad by it.

[malcolmeffect.livejournal.com]

We know you didn't.

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

That's good.

[malcolmeffect.livejournal.com]

We were in the way.

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

That's not it at all.

[malcolmeffect.livejournal.com]

Then....?

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

I would have liked the help. I'm not used to working with others, and none of you were in the way.

[malcolmeffect.livejournal.com]

Kelly and I always work together.

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

I've noticed.

[malcolmeffect.livejournal.com]

I try to be a good father.

[a-mind-flip.livejournal.com]

I really think you are.

[malcolmeffect.livejournal.com]

I haven't been in the past.
