Worlds Apart [Closed Joining | Remake 2]

"No, we didn't." He sighed. "I just haven't seen her in a while."

---

Lulu shook her head and wrapped her arms around him. "No."

---

Morrigan moved around his desk and took his hands gently. "You couldn't have done anything. How could you have even known? Don't blame yourself."

"Oh." Freia said and nodded.

---

Jaith sighed lightly and headed toward her room.

---

Charlie looked up at her dismally and at their hands. "I love you." He told her quietly.

Duncan looked to her and looked down the hall.

---

Lulu frowned slightly.

---

Morrigan kissed him lightly and squeezed his hands. "I love you too."

Freia eventually reached the game room again and glanced back at him.

---

Jaith looked down at her and grinned slightly.

---

Charlie kissed her back faintly, hugging her suddenly and resting his head on hers.

Duncan looked down at her and grinned. "Where to first?"

---

Lulu smiled again when he did and rested against him.

---

Morrigan blinked and hugged him back, frowning when he couldn't see.

Freia shrugged. "I dunno, where do you wanna go?"

---

Jaith reached her room and pushed the door open, stepping inside silently.

---

Charlie stroked her hair silently, unable to find anything to say as he tried to find some way he could have found out when he had been younger.

Duncan smirked slightly. "We could do bowling. Kendra beat me at it," he said with a pout. "And at pinball."

---

"Thank you," she said quietly.

---

"I didn't tell you to have you blame yourself," she said. "And I'm sorry for slapping you. I don't really know why I did..."

Freia nodded. "Okay. I've never really bowled before though..."

---

Jaith set her down on her feet and nodded slighlty.

---

Charlie sighed. "What else am I supposed to do? If I had ever been told, or if I had ever figured it out..." He shook his head slightly, disregarding the last thing she had said.

"I could show you, give you a basic idea."

---

Lulu hugged him when she was set down and looked up at him again.

---

"Not this," she muttered. "I know you would've done anything you could."

"Oh. That would work."

---

Jaith hugged her back and smiled slightly.

---

Charlie sighed and shook his head again, not speaking.

Duncan smirked and walked towards the bowling alley.

---

Lulu smiled back and rested against him.

---

Morrigan frowned and sighed.

Freia followed him quickly.

---

Jaith hugged his arms around her softly, pulling her over to the bed and lying down with her.

---

Charlie looked back at her silently, dismally.

Duncan looked back and stopped in front of one.

---

Lulu smiled and cuddled into him.

---

Morrigan rested her hand on his other cheek, looking back at him in the same way.

Freia waited for him, watching him.

---

Jaith held her closely, smiling.

---

Charlie kissed her palm with another sigh.

Duncan took one of the balls and bowled it down, only hitting a few of the pins. He went back to her and looked at the rack where the bowling balls were kept. "Do you know which weight you like the most?"

---

Lulu yawned and slowly closed her eyes before falling asleep.

---

Morrigan watched him silently.

Freia shrugged. "I dunno." She smiled sheepishly.

---

Jaith listened to her breathe for a long time before he loosened his grip around her and stood up, heading out of the room and down the hall with a small idea in mind.

---

Charlie sighed, "How can I make this up to you?"

Duncan tilted his head and took one of the bowling ball and held it for a moment before offering it to her. "Here, this only weights five pounds. If you want a heavier one it works. It's best to have one you're comfortable with."

---

Lulu didn't seem to even notice that he had left as she yawned and subconsciously pulled the blaknets over herself.

---

"You don't have too," she said. "It wouldn't matter."

Freia took it and lifted it up and down and shrugged. "This works." She decided.

---

Jaith headed down the hall and reached the game room, heading inside and heading over to a small booth with several stuffed animals up to winners.

---

"But I..." Charlie broke off, shaking his head to himself and muttering incoherently.

"Do you want me to show you how to throw it, or do you want to try yourself first?"

---

Lulu is sleeping. c:

---

Morrigan frowned and took his hand. "Charlie."

"I wanna try." Freia said. She went up to the lane and positioned herself, checking a few times. She went forward and bowled, and the ball rolled steadily and hit about seven pins. She tilted her head. "Was that right?"

---

Jaith looked at the little basketball stand he was at contemplatingly and took a few, beginning to shoot them successfully about six times each. When he was done he looked at the available prizes and ended up picking up a... stuffed dragon. He held it under his arm as he walked out, seeing nothing more of interest.

---

"Hunh?" Charlie looked at their hands and back at her.

Duncan, thinking she wouldn't hit any, was smirking until she hit the seven pins. He frowned slightly. "That was awesome."

---

Lulu's still asleeep

---

"Don't ever feel like you need too, and I don't want you to feel like you failed. Just having you again is enough for me." Morrigan said, kissing the top of his hand.

Freia smiled. "Yay!"

---

Jaith stepped back into her room and walked over to her after a moment, putting the stuffed animal beside her and watching her for several more moments.

---

Charlie sighed, shaking his head to himself and not replying to her. How can I not?

"Yay," he repeated.

---

Lulu mumbled and stretched her arm out around it. She blinked her eyes open when she finally realized something was there and looked down at it. She smiled and looked up at him, hugging it almost like a child would. "Did you get this?"

---

Morrigan frowned and hugged him gently.

Freia tilted her head and looked up at the screen. "Am I supposed to go again?"

---

Jaith watched her and smiled slightly. "Yeah."

---

Charlie hugged her back, closing his eyes.

Duncan nodded dejectedly. "Yeah, you do."

---

Lulu smiled even more and stood up, hugging him tightly. "Thank you!"

---

Morrigan looked at the clock and frowned. "Grace will be looking for us," she muttered.
