I`m Awake

[Aiden]

Aiden grinned brightly as he caught her blushing.  He wouldn't say anything about it though.
"Right down there."  He answered, pointing down to a small house on the corner of town.  
They had finally arrived at the entrance of the country town.  Few people walked outside as clouds hovered in the sky.  It would soon rain.

Stacey smiled.
"You know where you`re going. I don`t. Lead the way." She said, composing her face enough to look up at him.

[Aiden]

((Sorry.  I didn't mean to put a question mark.))

Aiden looked at one of the long time familar shops and restaurants.  The town was small, like a bedroom town.  It was comfortable and everyone knew each other.
"Would you like to get something to eat first?"  He asked.

[potter_fan122]

((It`s okay, I knew what you meant.))

Stacey shrugged.
"Whatever you wish, my moon." Was all she answered. If Aiden was just nervous about her meeting his uncle, then he could shake it off whatever way worked for him. Time usually did help.

[Aiden]

Aiden shrugged his shoulders, and frowned.  He hated picking.
"Might as well get this over with." He said with a sigh.

[potter_fan122]

Stacey slowed, raising an eyebrow.
"Do you want to get it over quickly?" She asked curiously. "Aiden, if you want to wait a while, I`ll wait."

[Aiden]

Aiden shrugged his shoulders again.
"Well, we're already here."  He explained.  "I guess we should go ahead."

[potter_fan122]

Stacey gaze a small smile, still not really sure if Aiden wanted to do this here and now.
"Lead the way, my moon."

[Aiden]

Aiden squeezed her hand, and started walking down the street until they came to a smaller two-story house.  It was made with cream colored bricks and big windows.
"Here we are."  He shrugged.

[potter_fan122]

Stacey smiled.
"It looks nice." She said truthfully. She had had her fill of huge, empty houses.

[Aiden]

Aiden snorted, but still smiled that she thought it looked nice.  He stood infront of the large door.
"Thanks.  Its a place to stay, thats all that matters."  He mumbled.
He was recalling in his mind the day he had met her family for the first time.  He was still very grateful that they actually liked him.

Stacey stood, admiring the house, when she saw a flicker of movement from behind a curain. She turned to look at Aiden, speaking without making her lips move too much. Habit.

"Are you ready to do this?" She asked, her eyes wide and brown.

[Aiden]

Aiden nodded, noticing the curtain move from the corner of his dark eyes.
"Yeah, I just hope you like him is all."  He said, lifting his hand to knock on the door.
Not even before he finished knocking, the door opened.

Standing in the doorway was a tall man with dark brown hair.  He was good-looking, but not extremely so.  He was built muscular and from far away he may look threatening, but his smile was kind and warm.  He didn't look much older than fourty.

"Aiden."  The man greeted him with a deep voice.  He took Aiden's hand, and shook it quickly.  "I'm so glad you finally made it.  I was beginning to think you weren't coming."

Aiden cringed for a moment, but quickly composed his facial expression.  He cleared his throat.
"Yeah.  I told you I would come."  He said shaking his hand.
"Ryan, this is Stacey, my wife."  He explained turning his head to Stacey, smiling again.

Stacey watched as the big man opened the door and greeted Aiden. He was large, that was good. It made Stacey`s job a lot easier. She didn`t know how much this man knew about the wizard world,or exactly what Aiden ahd told him. Somehow she didn`t think he would be as welcoming  if he knew that she had killed about a dozen vampires and who knows what else.

Stacey flashed a large, charming smile, her white teeth glowing in the sunlight. She held out her hand for Ryan to take. "I`m Stacey." She beamed at him. Her eyes were blue. There was no way that they could stay brown for very long when she was around Aiden, so she just amde them stay blue. Besides, blue was an easy color to change, and not many people noticed the change.

[Aiden]

Ryan grinned a large grin, reaching both of his eyes.  He took Stacey's hand and shook it quickly.
"Ah, Stacey.  It is very good to finally meet you.  I've heard so much about you.  Please, please come in."  He offered them both with his deep voice.  He opened the door for them.

Aiden rolled his eyes, but smiled at Stacey.
"Thanks."  He said.
Even though Ryan was his uncle and was a father figure to him his entire life, Aiden always thought he acted like a big kid.  Thats probably why they got along so well.
He squeezed Stacey's hand, and walked through the door.

The first room, the living room, was about medium sized and two large sofas placed infront of a brick fireplace.  Ontop of the fireplace was a large tv.  The room looked comfortable and friendly.
