Secret Obsession Part 14: Just give him a chance...
Connor chased after a crying Meggie, he was sure he knew exactly where she would be heading...to her old house, to the backyard to be precise. When Maggie saw that Connor had followed her she screamed at him to just go home and leave her alone!

She stopped herself from further yelling when she could have swore she heard someone who sounded very much like her mother say "Meggie, stop...give him a chance..."
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4526/38684181721_1f1dc06499_b.jpg
She was thoroughly confused and looked around for the source of the voice but there was nobody else around. Meggie suddenly felt very bad for blowing up at Connor, she shouldn't have skipped school, it was his right to be mad at her for not showing up as she should have. She apologized to him...

Then he apologized to her for being so mad about skipping school, he told her he should have asked her if she needed a few more days off as he knew she was having a very tough time with Becky's death.

Meggie felt a bit better about Connor and calmed down significantly..
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4522/38627701136_fcd14f23eb_b.jpg
He asked if she would like to go do something together, she suggested the library, he of course thought that was a great idea.

I always plop the dinosaur on top of the Appaloosa library! ;)

They read together in silence...
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4558/38627697816_97eca57a90_b.jpg
Then Meggie said she was hungry so they went over to the diner for some supper...they chatted afterwards, mostly about Skye and Edward and Maggie's lack of space in the too small bedroom she shared with them.
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4527/38651650202_02b1412a88_b.jpg
Meggie then got a call from L who was still in Bridgeport with his parents.
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4551/37796472995_0ac693e6ac_b.jpg
He told her he was going to have to stay for another week, she was obviously disappointed but tried to not sound too sad about his news.
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4549/26907850489_b8b4c718d6_b.jpg
He promised he would be back as soon as he could, she hung up feeling very lonely...she missed him tremendously.

**********************************
A few days later Connor met Meggie at the book store after she got out of school and he got out of work...he was trying to make every effort to cheer Meggie up even though he was in mourning too...he missed Becky a lot too but didn't dare try to talk to Meggie about her, not quite yet, he could tell she was not ready to talk about her yet.
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4581/38651629542_7e6088b5fc_b.jpg
It was always mostly small talk but they were slowly learning more about each other and Meggie was opening up to him more.
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4579/38651624302_4f5760d5ac_b.jpg
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4541/38651617622_605a245eb7_b.jpg
Meggie loved the outdoors and they went over to the field to see if they could find any butterflies to watch or catch. They did spy a parakeet (Appaloosa must be near Australia! ;) )
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4574/38651616272_91e042caf5_b.jpg
Connor said he knew a much better field, the one over by the bowling alley..they drove over before the sun set...
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4540/38651615352_13f2586bd7_b.jpg
He caught one right away and gave it to Meggie for her collection...
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4584/38651609812_9102a0beeb_b.jpg
Unfortunately that set off her memories of L as he always caught butterflies and bugs for her, she was missing him a lot...she needed him to hurry home.
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4578/37966013254_7edf959d79_b.jpg
She told Connor what was bothering her and he gave her and understanding hug.
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4546/37966009924_4034b5caf0_b.jpg
He actually made her feel much better, this surprised Meggie...
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4557/37966003214_b87cea68f1_b.jpg
She spontaneously leaned in and clung to him, it felt good to actually feel good again, even if only for a few minutes.

Connor and Jared gave her permission to attend the Prom, they both agreed it would cheer her up at least for one night. Meggie was going by herself as she liked a couple of guys but neither one asked her to go.
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4562/24811194248_bf8dfb1e18_b.jpg

https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4515/38627611326_473d557e66_b.jpg
She walked out as the official girlfriend of Parker (which I had nothing to do with but worked out awesome as that was the direction I was headed)..
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4560/37796417725_5cf4c8b40a_b.jpg
When she got home Connor and Jared had about 5 billion questions!
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4515/24811177808_56f87a42ff_b.jpg
Since her evil sarcasm was returning she almost wanted to make a comment about Parker taking her virginity but felt she didn't know these guys well enough for that yet.... (though L would have though it was hysterical!)
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4584/24811175238_40a68b5382_b.jpg
Connor was inquisitive about her prom night news but didn't ask anything too personal (she kept her news of Parker to herself), but Jared loved the update about the dance, he asked tons of questions, he used to love dances at high school!
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4550/37796391945_5865c1fb6a_b.jpg
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4526/37965945324_1aea3928c5_b.jpg
She dragged herself up to bed, kicked Sparkle off her bed and was out like a light...
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4530/37796434955_f7372bb41e_b.jpg
Her mom visited early in the morning...and whispered to Meggie who was very much asleep that she was making her and dad very proud, she was a very good girl...
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4582/24811201538_aefedd7890_b.jpg
Meggie murmured "I love you mom..." in her sleep.
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4579/24811198998_ed53c4d679_b.jpg
******************************************
L showed up the next day wanting to surprise Meggie...
She was getting the mail for Jared, when she looked over saw him dropped all the mail and ran right to him and grabbed him into a big hug...
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4556/24811213138_bf15d25dff_b.jpg
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4528/24811210048_eb89bb621e_b.jpg
L had been scouting around outside the house for butterflies, he had called last night and told Jared he wanted to surprise Meggie the next morning and to have Meggie get the mail right at 9:30...
He collected two new butterflies for her.
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4522/38651518382_1c631ce3a8_b.jpg
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4522/38651514552_e05605ca45_b.jpg
He led her to the backyard he said he some news...
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4533/38651507982_f9599a8dc3_b.jpg
"The good news is my dad is doing well and we have a live in nurse for the next month"
"Good then you're staying here with me right!" Meggie was excited...
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4554/38651507112_8317e196f0_b.jpg
until L said, "Well I'm thinking about putting a new Spa in Bridgeport, I was scouting land while I was there and met with an architect to design the building, we break ground next week."
"So you're moving away....in FIVE days???" Meggie was confused..
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4541/38651505952_2f0d9e6742_b.jpg
then was furious..."Da*mn it L!!!" she growled...
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4516/37965909614_1150737425_b.jpg
..then she burst into tears, she couldn't take this anymore, she was losing everyone she ever cared about, everyone she ever loved...her father, her mother, now L...
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4554/37965905784_511347186f_b.jpg
She covered her eyes and whimpered "I can't lose you L, I love you, I need you around, you're the only person that makes me happy!"
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4583/37965902694_b3af78c22f_b.jpg
L looked at Meggie with sad eyes, he had been all excited about his new Spa in the big city that he hadn't even fully considered how Meggie would feel about his moving away, well he did, but he thought she would be happy for him.
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4544/37965901684_0d6dce00e6_b.jpg
He scooped her up in a hug and said "You can visit me any time you want it's only a three hour bus ride, and hey maybe I can give you driving lessons before I leave so you can drive to see me!"
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4542/26907696989_a634835984_b.jpg
"I'd really like that L!!"
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4581/38651477812_9eb145dfff_b.jpg
He tried his best to clown around with her and cheer her up, but in truth he was really sad about moving away too, he would miss her a lot. They really were best buds...
