Ch 5 - An Arc Of Hearts
By Lattelady
Ch 5 - part I - A Heart at 12
Momster used to shake her head and wonder if they’d done right by her, their little grease monkey with the large blue eyes. Somehow it just didn’t seem proper. She was destined for greater deeds.
Then she’d hear Deeg laugh as the girl rolled up her sleeves and grabbed a wrench. “Let me take a look, Popsicle.”
“Think you can get to the heart of it?”
Later she worked rust off of a small piece of metal before carefully replacing it. “Give it a try now, Pops!” To her joy the engine jumped to life.
Another success for cardiomechanic, DG!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ch 5 - part II - A Heart At 16
Two days after Karen Morgan’s dad dropped dead of a heart attack, DG sighed up for a CPR class. Mr. Morgan was too close in age to Popsicle. She was going to be prepared.
Deeg practiced everyday on a bale of hay. Heels of her combined hands pressed together over an imaginary sternum, elbows locked…two breaths followed by five sets of thirty compression.
“That’s not gonna help none.” Momster looked on in wonder.
“The girl won’t listen ta me.” Pops shrugged. “It’ll do her better on down the road to be able to breathe life into a heart ‘a tin.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ch 5 - part III - Heart at 20
When they let him out of the Iron Maiden, she thought he was made of metal, but he proved her wrong. It was amazing what a bath and a shave could do for a man.
It wasn’t until later that she discovered just how broken he really was. She thought about the CPR class she’d taken in her teens, but doubted chest compressions could bring his heart back to life.
There was nothing in her tool box that would fix the heart of a living man. She would have to find another way, or hers would break beyond repair too.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ch 5 - part IV - A Heart At 21
He’d been away and upon returning, let himself be pulled into one of her hugs. Without conscious thought his lips moved down her cheek, until they covered her mouth.
Not letting her go, he reached up and locked her door. Later there was a trail of clothes leading to her bed where two naked bodies moved against one another.
As he gently took her innocence, they cried out their love for each other.
Later as he held her close and she could feel his heart beating strong under her ear she smiled. “Pops always said I could fix anything metal.”

Date: 2008-05-07 07:31 pm (UTC)Thanks for the cutie icon, again.
I need to make myself some CDG icons. But iMovie 08 doesn't make pictures out a stopped clip like Movie Maker did. I need a source of stills. I grabbed the older version of iMovie and it'll make pictures, but won't cut anything into clips. I should spend some time making fake movies of short Cain/DG scenes and then take the time to break them up by hand.
I've started a music vid, but I can't believe how clumsy iMovie 08 is.
Well then I need to figure out my new photo software. I want to find a program that makes the icons that move, but don't have a clue where to look.
See I told you I don't write short. Look at this darn comment. Sorry for going on so.
