[AUDREY QUINN FARROW]

& I WAKE UP EVERY EVENING
WITH A BIG SMILE ON MY FACE
( and it never seems out of place )

Audrey set the box down, releasing a relieved sigh as she put her hands on her back and arched backwards. It was mid afternoon, blue skied and bright, the sunlight filtering in through the window of her new room. Everything was so uncanny... this situation, especially. It wasn't exactly in her plans two weeks ago to be escaping to Hawaii for God knows how long.
' I swear He's the only person who does...' she thought with a frown, looking at the suitcases and boxes around her. There were only a few more, but none that belonged in this room. All of her stuff was here, now, but to just quit would br rude.
This wasn't just her trip alone.

"Caden?" she called, pulling her hair out of the ponytail it had been in, shaking her hair out. She sat on the couch, pulling it back as she looked around, trying to get used to the fact that she was actually here. Since she'd stepped off the plane it had been difficult for her to grasp everything. But now that she got some time to actually sit and think... maybe that would help.
"Cade I'm... gonna go shopping when we're done getting everything in. We need a few things..." said Audrey, going through her list in her head. The essentials: food, meaning eggs, cereal, ramen, for her... and whatever he wanted. Coffee... cigarettes, for her. But she'd have to buy those then stash them in her purse so he didn't see them...

"Write up a list for me of what you want..." she added, grabbing her purse from the coffee table before her and getting a piece of gum. If she didn't get a cigarette soon, she might start throwing things.
"We should get a pizza... can you even do that here? Or just go out, celebrate... if you're up to it?... Where are you, anyways?"
A concerned frown invaded her face, and she sat up, listening for signs of movement. Lately, she got this odd knot in her stomach if she didn't see him for a long time... which was foolish really. She'd been trying to talk herself out of it, but the thought and the memories came back to haunt her all too often. While she was afraid to crowd him, she was afraid to leave him alone.
Too much had happened lately.

Audrey was about to stand up and go look for him, but that was just as he entered, calling out his location. She meant to scowl, but it was intercepted by a small smile. Seeing Caden nowadays was... relieving. That day when she'd walked into the hospital, after he told her over the phone that he had no intention of seeing her again, because he...
It did her good to see that he was still around. Yet... it pained her at the same time. Things didn't have to be this way, she felt. She didn't have to be on the edge about his temperment, thinking, as crazy as it sounded, that at any given moment Caden could get depressed and off himself. It sounded extreme but... he tried to do it before.
And it scared her.

"Hey you" she said, tossing the pack of gum on the coffee table and flopping back on the couch, "Is that all of them?"
The apartment wasn't too big. It was nice, but a decent size for two people. While she had played it all off as no big deal to him, there were many questions and thoughts buzzing around her head. Sure, guys had passed out in her dorm in college and she'd woken up to find guys in towels that her friends had kept over for the night and it was no big deal. While she figured this shouldn't be a big deal, considering they were good friends, she'd thought long on it. She knew Caden well, but this experience would almost be (dare she say it) getting to know him "couple well". The boys in her dorm left. Caden was actually living there.
But think about it anymore and he might drive herself crazy.

"I'm making a list" she said, closing her eyes and breathing in a moment, "I'm going to stop by the store... get some things, and I was wondering if you wanted anything."
He was such a gentleman, such a kind person, and it struck her every time he walked into a room with her. It never really made sense, why he'd try to do what he did. She just couldn't fathom it... it warped life her view of life, almost. At least she'd been doing a heck of a lot of thinking, she knew that. And all about him. He was on her mind all the time. She almost felt like a parent, the worry and concern she had for him. At least, that's the sense she made of it.
"Also, dinner... what do you want to do about that?" she added, glancing over at him, "I'm a sucky cook, unless we're talking pasta. Or cereal."

She pumped her fist in the air when he said all the boxes were out of the truck. Thank goodness. No more up and down those stairs. While it was a nice workout, she wasn't one much used to physical activity. The furthest she walked was from a bar to her bed at home back in college, and she was half drunk then, so to her it didn't count. And Caden had actually found her before she got home and helped her... she'd forgotten about that. That was the day she got into a huge fight with her boyfriend for going against his word to be designated driver. The memory put a smile on her face. Funny, how she'd forgotten all about that until now.

Smiling, she tapped her head with her finger,
"Ah no need, I'll memorize it all. But..."
Audrey hesitated a split second on that answer, a million thoughts running through her head. If she got too excited about him coming with her, he might think she didn't trust him. Which she... sort of didn't. But did... to an extent. And if she didn't and let him stay... well, that could lead to...
'Geez, chill out, will you? she scolded herself, standing and moving into the kitchen so she could distract herself. She looked in the fridge though she knew there was nothing there.
"If you're not too tired from carrying all those boxes, sure, but I'm a big girl, I can handle myself out there" she said with a smile, in an attempt to make things lighthearted. She found herself doing that a lot, trying to lighten the mood... in her own way. Audrey wasn't exactly a happy go lucky person, but for Caden? She'd be more than willing to make an effort. Willing wasn't even the right word. She just had to.

Walking over to one of the bigger boxes, she opened it, kneeling to pull out a few kitchen appliances: a coffee maker, a toaster, and a blender. They'd really just packed up everything and left.
'Mom's gonna be so pissed...' she thought, almost with a laugh. This was the first time she'd though about her parents through the whole thing. While they'd always loved and babied Caden, they wouldn't be too thrilled about her packing up and leaving. But she had a tendancy to slightly enjoy pissing her parents off. It was a sick habit... but she had a lot of sick habits.
"Cigarettes, right..." she muttered under her breath, mentally re-adding it to her list. Maybe she should write it all down...
"I'd trust your cooking over mine any day" she said, standing and walking over to the couch where he was, grabbing another piece of gum. She swore, if she didn't get cigarettes soon...
"Its your call, Cadey-babe"

'We sound just like a married couple' thought Audrey, entertaining the thought with a smile. It wasn't a foreign thought to cross her mind. People had said it to her, and she had thought it before. They sure tended to bicker like one: snappy and such, but always with a pinch of affection. Her attitude towards him was... generally affectionate. Granted she wasn't the most affectionate person in the world, but she was more affectionate with him than with anyone else, her parents included. She didn't wince when she hugged Caden, and she gave him pet names, though that was a basic thing with friends. Caden got the pleasure of being her personal pillow whenever she was sleepy, drinking, or unhappy.

Speaking of drinking, she added alcohol to the list. And something simple, for now, some sissy drink like Smirnoff Ice. Something she could drink without passing out every night. Unlike Vegas, she wanted to remember the majority of this trip.
Audrey looked at him a moment, smacking on her gum until she realized how obnoxious she was being, and that she was staring. Her mind had gotten caught up in analyzing him, and she forgot that staring at someone wasn't really normal. Or polite.
"... You're doing okay?" she asked, her voice softening as she tilted her head, feeling a bit silly asking. He seemed perfectly fine, but it wasn't until after the incident, looking back that she'd realized he was showing signs of depression before. Hopefully he wouldn't take it as... pushy or something. She just wanted to double check that he was okay, emotionally, with the move, physically... anything. Everything. They hadn't really talked about anything but the move since, and she wanted to make sure everything with him was in check.

"We should... celebrate soon. Go do something." she added, offering a smile, "I think we deserve it, even if we're not done unpacking. And we should make a to do list... things we want to do while we're here."
She bit her lip, and sat by him, hoping she hadn't said anything to make him suspicious. While she wanted him to know she was there, and cared, she didn't want to seem... too there, if that made sense. There was a careful balance she was constantly trying to find, and it felt like a very tedious act to accomplish. Once upon a time she could feel relaxed around Caden. But once upon a time, she would have never thought Caden would do what he did.

Audrey gave a small laugh, happily not forced when he talked about being hungry. That she could empathize about. It wasn't enough that she hadn't had a cigarette in way more time than it needed to be, but she was starving. She might not have been a very big girl, but she was blessed with a good metabolism. That, and there was rarely a moment in which she wasn't moving, unless she was drunk or something, then she'd lay around like a fat content cat. Needless to say she ate a lot. A whole lot, so much that her father "didn't need a son to clean the fridge for them", as he would often chuckle and say. But she was an eater, a stress eater, a boredom eater, and she was used to snacking throughout the day, but today she hadn't had the time to snack... and it was catching up to her.

When he put his arm around her, she instantly went into snuggle mode, curling up against him and even closing her eyes for a moment. She was a hugger, and a good trait she that came to mind when she thought about Caden was his arms. She liked guy arms, but not all guy arms gave good hugs. Caden's did, which she used as an excuse to cuddle with him more often, to herself. It sort of helped that he was an attractive guy. She loved having attractive guy friends... they were almost a pride thing, sad to say. That's what she'd done in college at least. She tended to flock to attractive guys, not for sleeping with, but for the cuddling benefits and the ability to stare down girls who were eying her "men". For no other real reason than a confidence boost, really. Ah, college days... but Caden had grown to be a better friend than that. Not that she ignored the benefits.
"...let's go somewhere. I'm too hungry to go on a 'what can we cook' scavenger hunt. We can make the list while we're eating, then go buy stuff so our stomachs are full and we don't end up buying things we don't need" she said, coming to a decision. She noticed that he was warm from being outside still. It was hot as hell in Hawaii, but she wasn't about to move. He was too comfortable.

"Hell, Cade, we're in Hawaii..." she said, taking a moment to absorb what she said, "I mean... we're not just visiting, we're sort of hiding out here for awhile"
She glanced up at him a moment, then sighed, closing her eyes again, taking the moment to enjoy being at rest.,
"I mean there's a lot of sights to see, we've got the beach within walking distance of here, there's helicopter tours, rent jet skis, even go on a cruise or something... oh, Cade, we could totally see a luau! And they've got nightclubs and stuff... and a girlfriend of mine said she went ziplining... but we can take it slow, relax a bit. Every day doesn't have to be action packed, you know, you came here to get away... work on... music and stuff"
When Caden had told her he wanted to work on music again, she'd been more than overjoyed. He hadn't talked about his music since college, and she'd seen, even in their few conversations, that he had a true passion for it. She smiled to herself. This trip was going to be really, really good for him, she could feel it.

( and it never seems out of place )

Seeing him smile made her smile back. It dawned on her... she really liked his smile. He'd smiled at her when she'd walked into the hospital that afternoon, though it was such a sad, puppy dog sort of smile. To see him happy did her good.
"Turn into a cannibal and eat me..." she said thoughtfully, leaning back on the couch with her hands behind her head, "Ya know I might not actually mind that"
She gave a cheesy grin to give away the joke, then allowed him to help her up, grabbing for her purse. Outside the window, not too far away at all, she could see the ocean below. The peace of everything just made her smile as she basked in it. No stress, no major responsibilities... this hadn't happened since the summer after her senior year of high school. And who better to spend it with than Cade? She couldn't have imagined a better set up, so the fact that it was happening hit her over and over, making her happier and more blown away than before.
It was almost like college, without the homework. An endless college Friday...

When she'd agreed to going with him, she had researched like a madwoman for activities, and dropped questions to friends, but not so obviously that they got suspicious. She actually hadn't told anyone until the last possible second... probably because her closer girl friends would try to talk her out of such a risky move. They liked Cade, but news got around and they'd heard what had happened to him. If they had heard that she was running off to Hawaii with him they might have had a convention for her.
But she'd gone crazy, writing lists, events, tours, schedules. Then she realized, a few days before leaving, that she was hardly preparing for a vacation. One of her problems was that sometimes? She forgot to have fun. For people who knew Audrey, the club hopping, bar familiar party girl, that might have seemed impossible, but when she got excited about something, she almost required it to be perfect, and got almost obsessed with trying to make it so. One way Caden had been good for her was making her feel silly for freaking out about anything. If something bothered her? She felt stupid about worrying less than five minutes into their conversation.

"Miami bucket list..." she said, putting her purse on her sholder and smiling, nodding to herself, "Yeah... yeah, I like that. I'm gonna get a piece of paper and write that really big on the top, and we'll make it and stick it on the fridge, and on days we don't feel like being lazy bums, we'll take a look and pick something"
At this point she was absolutely beaming, trying to think of the biggest piece of paper she could get without going through a lot of unpacking. Already she was getting into that mode, her mind formulating the best and most efficient way to organize the list, format the list. It wasn't a wonder that she drank to much, her mind was on super speed every minute she was sober. Smoking and drinking had become a way to cope... and while she wasn't proud of it, she didn't see any other way to make the stress and pain constantly plaguing her mind to go away. Not at the moment, anyways.

When he asked about her, Audrey stopped, looking thoughful. It wasn't something that had escaped her mind. When Cade was sleeping on the way over, she'd been thinking of that, staring out a window. Biting her lip a moment, she looked to him and said,
"Well... I'll probably relax for a bit at first, get to know the place. I might pick up a job so I won't get too bored, something part time, nearby and easy.... I'll probably go to a bar if you're sucked into something and entertain myself. Don't you worry about me, Cadey babe... this trip is for you, you need it more than I do."
A smile flickered over her face for a second, but felt a strange surge in her chest. She looked away and went into business mode, almost frowning from concentration as the gears in her head spun faster and faster.
"I'm thinking the job thing's a high possibility, though between us we probably have enough to live here for a few months, but it doesn't hurt to work, don't want to get too lazy... and for certain activities it'd be good to have some extra. Don't worry about getting a job, I'll handle that, you just keep writing music, that's what you're here to do... and I could start looking for places for you to submit stuff..."

[AUDREY QUINN FARROW]

& I WAKE UP EVERY EVENING
WITH A BIG SMILE ON MY FACE
( and it never seems out of place )

Even when she stopped speaking, her mind was spinning with ideas. She went into an almost blank stare as he led her out the door, knowing that in this mode she would have wandered back into her room and made a page full, front and back, of vacation plans and they'd never get to a restaurant at a decent hour. When he said "I think I've got everything covered" she snapped out of it, blinking back into reality and smiling. Again, she felt silly about almost freaking out again. Of all things on vacation, she had to start to worry, and Caden, once again, made her see how ridiculous she could be about planning things out. As much as she acted like she didn't care, she was a perfectionist, a blessing and a curse.
When he said, basically, that he was paying for everything, she almost went into freakout mode again. She couldn't have him do that! He was on vacation, and no matter how close they were, she would not have him supporting the both of them. He had just gotten out of a terribly hard time and it wasn't an option.

Audrey opened her mouth to protest, but when he said the only thing she had to do was spend time with him... well.
Her mouth snapped shut, and she frowned a moment, trying to think of some argument, some comeback... but it made sense. After everything he went through, money probably didn't seem that important, even though he hated where it came from. A person like that probably only wants someone there, someone who gives a shit that they exist. But Audrey gave much more than a shit. She gave more than a million shits. She mentally decided it was her goal this trip to show Caden that someone cared. She cared, and he mattered. And not only to her... to everyone. He could benefit the world so much with his music, and she knew that from a few samples from college. If just that was enough to tell her... he had somehting special, that was for sure.

"...I will. You're stuck with me, remember?" she joked with a smirk as she stopped at the car and looked at him, feeling the moment was almost too sweet. Audrey wasn't good with the sappy feel good stuff, even with Caden. She got embarrassed and left as soon as possible when her mom burst into tears looking at her toys the day she went off to college. That was stuff she wasn't good at. Anything cutesy. Anything emotional.
Anything that made her vulnerable.
"I'm just happy we're here..." she said, the words feeling clumsy on her tongue. She hesitated a moment, then hugged him, briefly, before turning and getting into the car. Day one... this was it. They were here. What was in store she could only guess... no, she could barely guess. She just had a really good feeling that it was going to be perfect, in its own way.
A really good, good feeling.
