She laughed and shrugged. "I know. Imagine that." It had been a very common thing for Georgia in high school and, well, now as an adult as well. "Um..." She said and moved to the back of her car. She was sure that she had put one in her trunk, but she wasn't a hundred percent. Opening the trunk, she smirked as she grabbed it. "I do." And she was relieved that she did. @yasminxmoreno

[yasminxmoreno]

"Great," she smiled as Georgia pulled it from the trunk of her vehicle. "Not that I don't think we could have bought one but would have saved us a little time." She told the other woman, gesturing for her to get in her vehicle. Once they were both in it, she pulled it out of park and got back on the road. "How are things with you? I mean, besides running out of gas." Yasmin questioned with a light laugh pressing over her lips. "I feel like we haven't run into each other that much as of late." @georgiaelliot

"You know -" Zach paused, holding up a finger as he turned on his heels, letting himself pick up a box from behind the counter. "I was going through some stuff at Mom's house the other day and we started talking, basically about how she blinked and I grew up." he laughed, opening the box and pulling out a denim jacket that had been hand sewn by someone - he still wasn't sure who'd made it - with dinosaur scales on it - and holding it up. "Do you remember this? I swear I wore it until I just literally couldn't get my arms in it anymore and I don't think anyone else besides you would appreciate seeing this again." He smiled a little wider. "I can almost remember that time in my life vividly you know."

[yasminxmoreno]

Yasmin had practically spent all of her life being friends with Nancy Thompson, which meant that she knew both Renee and Zachary well. While she never had children of her own, she loved them something fierce. "I mean, she's not wrong about that." Yasmin couldn't help but agree, a soft laugh passing over her lips. "Both of you did grow up in a blink of an eye." She smiled in his direction, watching as he pulled out a denim jacket. "I do remember that. I honestly half expected you to still be trying to wear it." Yasmin teased with another laugh. "You wanted to do everything in that jacket and when your mom needed to wash it, we might as well asked for the impossible." @zacharyrthompson

"No, not now." Georgia said as her car began to slow down and she pulled off to the side of the road. It had been a minute since she had ran out of gas in her car. She had gotten better at making sure she had some or Abraham checked for her, but things had been busy and she really thought she could make it to Fuel Frenzy. She was about to pull her phone out to call for help when she saw a car pull up behind her. She looked back as someone get out and laughed as she saw her friend. Georgia got out and smiled as she leaned against the door as she looked at Yasmin. "Would you believe that I ran out of gas?" She asked, smirking at her.

[yasminxmoreno]

Yasmin looked ahead while she was driving, watching as the car ahead of her pulled off to the side of the road. While she didn't recognize the vehicle or who might be in it, her hands shifted on the steering wheel so that her vehicle moved off the road too. As soon as she put the vehicle in park, she recognized Georgia leaning against the door. She got out, meeting Georgia's smile with one of her own. "You? Run out of gas?" She had been around long enough to know that it was typical of Georgia. "I am absolutely surprised." Even if her tone said otherwise. However, Yasmin's lips still held a smile. "Do you have a gas can on you?" @georgiaelliot

[lailaxmir]

Laila couldn’t help the smile on her face at Yasmin’s words. “You said it perfectly…it’s like we step onto the grounds of the vineyard and everyone just…slows down,” Laila smiled before taking a sip from her glass before looking back at Yasmin and stifling a laugh, “I have to be honest, I used to think I was a big wine connoisseur, but coming here…I realized I know next to nothing, so if there’s a handbook, we’re both missing it,” she grinned at the other. “But I think I’ve learnt just figuring out what flavours you enjoy is the most important thing.” | @yasminxmoreno

[yasminxmoreno]

Yasmin's laughter was soft at the woman's words. "Yeah, I'm still convinced there might be." She gave way to a pause, gaze flickering to the vineyard before them, "That or people just have a lot of confidence in what they are saying." She supposed, that people tended to believe things more if they were said with a certain sort of conviction. "What flavors do you most enjoy?" Her attention was back to Laila, curiosity threaded in the tone of her question. @lailaxmir

june 10, 2026: another year around the sun. grateful to celebrate with all my loved ones

[charliesxdavis]

Charlie was glad that someone was being so nice to his son. That Houston was young and was still learning as he grew. He saw people, waved, and said hello, wanting to play with anyone who would look at him. "Guess so, Houston, I thought you were my buddy," he teased as he moved to stand by the tree to enjoy the shade and watch. Houston was having a great time playing with Yasmin for a bit before he saw someone with a dog and dropped his dog "DOGGY!" he jumped excitedly, "Houston.... you know, don't?" he sighed as Houston started to toddle off. "Go after dogs you dont know" the farm had so many animals Houston loved them all @yasminxmoreno

[yasminxmoreno]

Yasmin was content playing cars with the young boy, until his attention was taken by something else. She looked up, spotting a dog walking by after Houston began to take interest in. Yasmin's gaze lifted to Charlie and then followed the boy. "Looks like you've got your hands full." Yasmin stated, pushing herself slowly up from the ground. She wasn't as young as she once had been. "I'll let you go wrangle your son." She smiled warmly in his direction. @charliesxdavis

END.

[caelxmontgomery]

"Okay, you can pick one, they're both gentle." By now Cael had gotten to know all the horses the Davis's had, knowing which ones to pick for their little outing with knowing they wouldn't give a little attitude to someone riding them they didn't yet know. He made sure to help her get on the horse before mounting his own, then slowly guiding her outside. "Right this way." So as not to spoil what else he had planned for her, he guided her off of the terrain, giving a nod to his boss once they passed them by and once they were in the free nature, increased the speed to a gentle trot. "Do you want to go fast?" He asked her, willing to adjust to her pace. @yasminxmoreno

[yasminxmoreno]

She had easily accepted his help to get onto her horse that she had chosen for the ride. Being atop of the horse, she was more acutely aware of significantly large the animal was beneath her. Still, as they left the ranch and moved into the open land, she found herself relaxing. There was something about the steady rhythm of the horse beneath her. As Cael asked her if she wanted to go faster, she nodded her head. "Yeah, of course." Cael had seen her streak of competitive nature from time to time. "Let's ride fast." @caelxmontgomery

Being good at what she did had gotten Zeynep far in her career, but it had been the small gestures she'd picked up from Ariana that had helped her establish something even bigger. Yearly client dinners had become a staple over the years, giving her a chance to reconnect with people or further business relationships with others. With Cael, it had always been a genuine interest in seeing how well he was doing with his life, his case being one that had always stuck with her as being a moment of doing something genuinely good with her talent. Stepping out of her car at exactly the time they'd agreed to meet, Zeynep spotted Cael and a woman she could only assume was Yasmin at the entrance to the restaurant. "Cael, it's been too long," she greeted as she walked over, stopping just shy of the two. "And you must be Yasmin?"

[yasminxmoreno]

Going to dinner with Cael was something that she had always enjoyed. Yet, he informed her that they'd have company tonight. Yasmin stood next to Cael, taking comfort in him as they waited at the forefront of the restaurant. The woman was strikingly beautiful, not that she was threatened. It was an observation. "Hi," she smiled warmly, outstretching her hand to the woman. "I am Yasmin. It's a pleasure to finally meet you, Zeynep. Shall we head inside?" She looked to Cael for confirmation. @caelxmontgomery

[lailaxmir]

Laila followed her gaze out toward the vineyard, the corners of her mouth softening almost immediately at the view. The sunset was painting the sky gold across the vines, warm and hazy in a way that made the entire evening feel slower and magnetic somehow. “It really does,” she said with a laugh. “My--uh boyfriend works here, so I end up around the vineyard pretty often, and somehow it still catches me off guard every time the sun starts setting.” She adjusted the strap of her bag on her shoulder before glancing back at the brunette beside her. “I think the Wine Walk makes it even prettier, honestly. Everyone’s relaxed, a little tipsy, pretending they know how to describe wine properly, myself included by the way," she said with a grin that was evident of the tease in her tone. | @yasminxmoreno

[yasminxmoreno]

"Yeah, there's something about people slowing down that's magical as well." Yasmin knew that even with herself she didn't slow down nearly as much as she should. It wasn't always easy to do, especially as the school year was winding down. Somehow it brought more chaos all the same. "I'm glad it's not just me," Yasmin lifted her glass slightly, "I just had someone tell me how much they noted oak and leather and I just couldn't taste that at all." She wrinkled her nose in thought. "I thought there was a handbook I was missing out on." @lailaxmir

[charliesxdavis]

He smiled at Yasmin as he looked over her and mouthed thank you to her. She didnt have to be nice and play with a toddler she didnt know but here she was doing it. "I don't know, Houston here is pretty good at it," he smiled as he moved to stand by them. Houston hurried to under the tree and nearly jumped to sit down. He moved to sit down himself, but Houston told him no, her only "Oh, whoa, I see I have been replaced," he teased as he moved to stand to watch. @yasminxmoreno

[yasminxmoreno]

Yasmin played with the young boy, feeling much in her natural habitat. While she didn't have children herself and didn't have a strong desire to have them, she enjoyed being around them. The early summer air was light and the sun shone through the trees while providing them with much needed shade. Laughter bubbled, passing over her lips as the young boy told Charlie no to joining them in play. "Sorry," she gave him a sympathetic look, "we've all had to be on the outs before." @charliesxdavis

location: cunnamore vineyards

At the end of May, Kismet Harbor's annual Wine Walk was taking place. She had a free evening and knew that many people from around town would be there. Yasmin had arrived later in the evening, her bag slung over her shoulder easily. Conversation buzzed around her and the setting sun cast a golden glow over the vineyard. It caused her to stop, looking out to the vineyard with a wistful look in her eye. She turned, smiling at a brunette standing next to her. "Honestly, the view with the sunset, it looks so magical."

[caelxmontgomery]

The kiss had ended too soon for his liking, his fingertips digging in just slightly deeper in protest, eyes opening to look down at her and take in her words. "Worried about them seeing my world?" He repeated, a little smile pushing dimples in his cheek. "Not at all." Cael continued, yet straightened himself up and taking her by the hand instead. "This way." For he had asked her there for a reason. He led her towards the stables where he had saddled two horses for them to use. He realised only then that he had never asked her if she had ever ridden a horse, which made him turn to her, trying to see if her expression betrayed anything. "Up for a little ride?" @yasminxmoreno

[yasminxmoreno]

Cael's words brought a blush to her cheeks. The warmth spread from her cheeks through the rest of her. Her hole body was ignited when she was around Cael, to no surprise. Following Cael, her breath caught in her throat when he led her to fully saddled up horses. She rode, casually and it had been some time but the thoughtfulness of his gesture was enough to override her nerves about the situation. "I would love to go for a ride." She nodded her head, the corners of her lips curling into a brighter smile. "At sunset? That will be perfect." @caelxmontgomery

[teaganweatherford]

"As much as I could anyways." Teagan exhaled, wiping at her cheeks again. "I know you don't need me to tell you, but this is the worst pain I've literally ever felt in my life." she sighed. Teagan was no stranger to pain or to losing people; in fact before Bradley reentered her life there was a point where it had been just Teagan. Grief wasn't something she was a stranger too either, but this. A pain she couldn't even describe. She knew that Yasmin cared and that she wanted nothing more than to be there for her, and Teagan appreciated it. "I'm trying not to." she exhaled, though she knew she wasn't doing a really great job of it. Sure, they talked and she did her best to be there as much as she could, but, there hadn't been any sort of connection to Bradley in the last few weeks. One that Teagan would've noticed if she took the time to pause and think. "I know he's hurting too." she paused. "He just makes it look so easy." She was sure it wasn't but, he carried it so effortlessly that she'd nearly have bet money on it. "Thanks for spending the day with me. I may not be the best company these days but I don't like being alone either." @yasminxmoreno

[yasminxmoreno]

The exhaustion was evident in her best friend. It was sitting beneath her eyes, it was the way every sentence sounded like it was costing her energy to say aloud. At the mention of Bradley, she exhaled softly through her nose. "Some people are just better at hiding it." She murmured in response to Teagan's words. "It's eating him alive too." While she didn't know that for a fact, she knew Teagan and she knew that she wouldn't be with Bradley if he didn't have a heart at least half the size of her own. She wasn't defending him, only offering a reminder that grief looked different on everyone. "You could stare blankly at the wall for eight hours and I would still rather be here with you, than have you sit alone with all of this." Yasmin squeezed her hand again, speaking more softly now. "I will always be here for you and you never have to perform for me." @teaganweatherford

[charliesxdavis]

He smiled, "He's really at that age," active, running around, wanting to explore and see what things were or how they worked. He watched Houston as he came up to Yasmin, babbling to her a bit about his trucks and held one out to her "Buddy, I dont think she wants to play trucks with you" he chuckled "But we can when we get home" he said as he knew Houston was going keep trying since he loved to share and play games. @yasminxmoreno

[yasminxmoreno]

As the young boy held out the truck to her, her features softened. "I don't mind playing trucks with you." She said, not wanting the young boy to think that anyone he asked to play would say no. Yasmin crouched down slightly so that she was more on his level, knowing that at some point there would be a burning in her thighs from the squat. "I've heard that I'm quite excellent at making car noises you know." She teased, looking back up to Charlie. "We can go over under the tree, where it's shaded." She said, standing back up to point. @charliesxdavis

[caelxmontgomery]

He answered her words with but a wink. He knew what he wanted, and slowly he had started to learn how to ask for it again when it came to intimacy, physical touch. He remained still, waiting for her to align herself with him and when she did his lips eagerly responded the moment they touched hers. His hands were placed on her hips as he let himself lean backwards until he rested against her car, pulling her along with him. It was easy to let himself get lost with her, for she had managed to tackle his wall and break it down brick by brick to a point where he easily found himself wanting more. Caress his shoulder and he'd go in for a hug. Give him a kiss and he'd be deepening it, one hand moving upwards to the back of her head as his tongue danced against hers. @yasminxmoreno

[yasminxmoreno]

She let out the softest of breaths as he pulled her closer. One hand found his chest, instinctively steadying herself against him as he leaned back against her car. Her other hand slid up along the side of his neck. The kiss deepened and her fingers threaded lightly into the hair at the nape of his neck. The world around the went quiet and for a moment, she had forgotten they were even outside his place of work. When Yasmin finally pulled back just enough to look up at him, she laughed under her breath. "Aren't you worried your boss might see us?" She teased, her cheeks flushed red from the kiss. @caelxmontgomery
