How She Became His Everything

Not Over, Until I Say So

Time passed slowly as Lynn was still waiting, worried about what might be happening in there. For a second there, she almost burst in to find out, but Frank eventually went out.
He was looking upset and disturbed, not the way she wished he would be.

"What took you so long!" She said. "What happened?"

"I'm sorry," He looked at her sadly. "Your uncle is so stubborn," he added softly taking her tightly in his arms.
She rested her head on his chest, getting so angry rather than upset, thinking of how kind her uncle was with her at first and how serious and cold he became now.

"I'll talk to him myself then," she then announced, leaving Frank's arms and storming into his office, standing in front of his desk and saying in anger, "I need to talk to you uncle!"

Stan, busy talking on the phone and going through papers, gestured her to leave.

"Now!" She refused to budge. "I need to talk now!" She repeated firmly.

"Can't you see I'm in the middle of something here?" He said hanging up. "I thought we already talked about this and I've made my decision, you're staying here Lynn!" he added getting off of his chair, gathering files and folders then stacking them in his suitcase.

"But there's something you don't understand here," she tried to make a point, standing in his way. "This is MY life we're talking about!" She added glaring at him.

"I don't have time for this Lynn, I have things to do," he said with irritation as he looked at his watch then rapidly put his coat on, got his paper works and head to the door opening it to leave. He was in such a hurry, he bumped into Frank who was still waiting outside, causing his papers to fall all over the place.
Lynn followed him to the hall where he was kneeling, gathering everything back, suspiciously unallowing Frank to touch them as he simply intended to help.

"It's time for me to stand up for myself you know?" She added looking down at him. "I think I'm old enough to make my own decisions now," she declared watching him and those papers. He seemed to be nervously rushing to hide them in the folder.

"Wait... that picture," she said pointing and staring at a half hidden photo. She tried to reach it thinking the person in it looked like someone familiar, but Stan stood in the way, "You want to be completely responsible for yourself then," he said as he pushed the picture in between the others.

"That guy Frank seemed to be a good guy," he added as he finished getting all of his stuff back in place.

"He did make it seem like they needed you, so I'll tell you what, I'll give you a chance..." Stan added.

"Seriously?" She interrupted with eyes wide open, forgetting all about that picture.

"Yes, I don't think that I'd be able to handle your rebellion at that age," he said straightening himself up, placing his hand on his back in pain.

"So that means that you agree to let me go back with them!" She said excitedly.

"I'm afraid so," he nodded.

"Oh! Thank you!" She said hugging him.

"BUT, if ANYTHING, goes wrong over there you'll be on the next flight here to look for a job.....in a company....where it's safe," he said in a serious tone.

"What makes you think it's not safe over there?" She added suspiciously as Frank interrupted, wrapping his hand around her shoulders with a large smile on his face.

"Don't worry mr uh..." he paused.

"Stanly," she whispered to him.

"STANLY, I'll be taking good care of her," Frank tried comforting him.
Stan nodded looking at both of them as he then hastily head outside

"We did it!" Lynn screamed happily.

"You did it," Frank said smiling.

"He liked you! He said that you looked like a good guy!" She added hugging him as he had his arms around her waist.

"Yeah, but... He did seem to be afraid of my tatoos when he first saw me though," Frank added humorously.
She laughed looking at him, she was so happy she didn't know how to express it. But there she was, in his arms, it was a perfect moment for a kiss as he had this cute smile on his face again.
I know I promised myself not to do this anymore, she thought to herself staring at him, but I can't help it he's so adorble, she smiled to then smooch him.

"It somehow feels so good everytime we do this," she said as he looked back at her smiling gently. She was all happy and excited, but Gerard hit her mind again.
I shouldn't have kissed Frankie, she thought to herself looking at him, to then free herself from his arms and say, "I'll go upstairs to change and call to get us tickets reserved for the next flight out."

"Ok, need any help?" Frank offered his.

"With what?" She said laughing as she ran her way up the stairs.

Minutes later, door was knocked several times and Frank being the nearest one, he finally opened it as white flashes of a camera almost blinded him.

"What the..." He said covering his face with his hands, looking at Karen with the camera in her hand, as close as possible to his face, trying to take another picture.
"Come on!" He added stepping back and trying to move it away from his face.

"I'm so sorry Frank, I just had to prove it to 'MYSPACE' friends that I really met you," Karen explained excitedly. "How long are you staying here," she added standing next to him and taking a picture of the both of them together.

"Um, we're leaving as soon as possible," he added smiling, trying to stay nice to her.

"Oh," Karen said disappointed "did mr Stanly know about Gerard and everything?"

"What Gerard and everything?" Frank was confused.

"You know," she whispered childishly giggling."That drug deal and all," she added.

"Drug deal?" Frank frowned.

"Yeah, the one him and Eliza did and Lynn helped him too," added Karen smiling, meaning to 'remind' him of it, not knowing what she was getting Lynn into.

"What?" Said Frank getting furious. "Lynn made some drug deal with Gerard and Eliza?" He added.

"Oh no, I wasn't supposed to say that," said Karen realizing the mistake she just did.
