I have a new chapter of "House of Pullip" today, but no extra photos...sorry. I'll have time tomorrow to take some. For now, enjoy the story! :D
Chapter 179: Bon Voyage
Hawk: I made the arrangements…did you get time off work?
Shiloh: Yes, two weeks. Is that long enough?
Hawk: Plenty.
Shiloh: I’m so excited!
Hawk: We leave tonight to go the Las Vegas. In two days we leave for our honeymoon.
Shiloh: Where are we going?
Hawk: It’s a surprise…
Shiloh: How will I know what to pack?
Hawk: Alright, here’s a little hint: make sure you pack a swimsuit and warm weather clothes.
Shiloh: That’s not much of a hint, but it sounds nice.
Hawk: It will be, I promised.
Shiloh: And your parents?
Hawk: They were so happy when I talked to them, they were totally ready to drop everything and meet us in Vegas.
Shiloh: I’m glad they are so supportive…that really helps.
Hawk: Our friends will understand, too. Are you sure you don’t want to at least tell a few of them before we leave?
Shiloh: I probably should…but I don’t know…I don’t know if I’m ready to answer questions.
Shiloh: I do at least need to tell Roxanne we will be gone for a while.
Hawk: Let’s pack and we can find her on our way out.
Shiloh: Okay.
A Little While Later…
Hawk: Do you have everything?
Shiloh: *nervous* Yes.
Hawk: You’re sure you want to do this.
Shiloh: Absolutely sure.
Hawk: There’s Roxanne.
Shiloh: She will wonder about this…I hate deceiving her…
Hawk: Then just tell her.
Shiloh: I…can’t. I don’t want her to try and talk me out of it.
Hawk: Do you think she would?
Shiloh: I don’t really know…that’s one reason I’m not sure about telling her right now.
Hawk: We can at least tell her we are going on vacation, that won’t be too hard.
Roxanne: Hey you two! *notices their bags* Are you going somewhere?
Shiloh: Uh…yes. That’s what I was just about to tell you. Hawk and I are taking a trip together. We are leaving tonight and we’ll be gone for about two weeks…I didn’t want you to wonder.
Roxanne: Sounds fun! Where are you going?
Shiloh: Um…
Hawk: Shiloh doesn’t know…it’s a surprise from me to her.
Roxanne: Wow…
Hawk: We…er…want to spend some special time together.
Roxanne: I see…what about work?
Shiloh: I took some time off, it’s all arranged.
Roxanne: I hope you have fun then!
Hawk: Thank you…I know we will. *smiles*
Shiloh: Bye, Roxanne.
*Roxanne watches them walk off together…and notices something…*
Roxanne: What a pretty ring Shiloh is wearing…
To be continued...
It's hard to see, but in the last photo Roxanne can see the ring on Shiloh's visible hand on Hawk's back. Roxanne just hasn't put two and two together yet...
