The Lawn | Noon Onward!

With graduation festivities occurring over the weekend, the school administration expected most of the graduation guests to begin arriving today. To ensure guests felt welcomed, Barney's student council minions had set up a small gathering on the lawn where the guests could arrive, mingle, and feign relaxation before heading off with their graduates.

Or where they could all hear about how George got the makeouts with his girl the night before. Someone was a little chatty while hefting the tables and chairs that would serve guests well for getting a load off after travel, and Barney thought it was a tale worth sharing. For the hungry and forgetful, there were finger foods and nametags spread out on a long table. It was time to get the all-weekend grad party started!

[Up early because I have no control over the internets once I go to work!]

"They promised," she said quietly. She ran her hand along his jaw, wanting to relax him. "They promised," she repeated.

He wouldn't hold his breath as to whether or not those promises were kept. But this time was hers and he wouldn't act like an ass. Unless, you know, provoked. "I'm not worried. And don't you worry about me, okay?"

She raised an eyebrow at that. "I love you and will always worry." She smiled at him. "Besides, Mom and Sean are here. Wyatt and Isabel will be here, as will Summer. K-Mart is here." She brushed her hair back from her face. "If it gets too much, they can deal with my relatives and we can escape somewhere?"

He cupped her cheek, caressed down to hold his hand against her neck, under her hair. "I wouldn't be against escaping with you. In fact, I think that idea holds a certain amount of appeal. Don't you?" His blue eyes darkened as they carefully swept down her slender frame.

There was a definite spark in her eyes as she watched his face. "I'm pretty sure that I have never had any problem with escaping anywhere with you, love. I believe that you know it's been one of my favorite past times." She tilted her head to the side. "And just think, a week from tomorrow and there won't be a need to run away and escape together unless we want a vacation."

"Exactly," he replied, grinning down at that recognizable spark in her eyes. "Which reminds me... I have been trying to add a certain, uh, feminine charm to my apartment. Specifically the bedroom."

"Oh really?" Someone had been working on a low drawl it seemed. "And exactly what have you been trying to do my love?"

Oh there was a wicked look in her eyes now.

"Oh, add a stripper pole," he answered, not at all ashamed. Except, you know, he was kind of glancing away.

Savannah stared at him for a moment and then burst out into giggles. "You didn't!"

"Figured you might want a piece of Fandom brought with you." Yeah. Totally for that reason alone. Totally.

She wasn't buying it at all. Not one bit.

"Well, at least you didn't decide on a pony or a gremlin," she teased.

Yeah, he was so getting teased.

"Sorry, sweetheart. I figured the weird and alive could stay here."

But the pole...

Johnny might be kind of pleased with the fact that his room was directly above Ben's.

Ahem.

She grinned at him. "I'm sure we can figure out something to do with it..."

"Oh, I have no doubt," he said, winking at her.

She hugged him again. "I am so damn glad you're here."

"No other place I'd rather be," he replied sincerely, holding her close.

"I'm graduating. I survived."
