Trixie finally dragged herself out of bed, padding out barefoot to the kitchen, where she found Zippy. She pulled the hem of Eli's shirt down, trying to cover herself as best she could. "Hey, Erin..."

Erin sighed. "Hey Trix. Want some coffee? Where's Eli? I know he'll want some." Zippy poured him a cup.

She bit her lip. "Eli went to work. I couldn't stop him."

"WHAT!" Zippy exclaimed, nearly dropping the coffee pot. "Jesus. I'm gonna kill him....I already lost him once, I'll be damned if I lose him again."

Trixie chewed on her lip, her bottom lip trembling. "May--maybe he'll come home early. Luke won't let anything happen to him..."

This was true. Luke would be the most heartbroken out of all of them if something happened to Eli. "So....how'd things go last niight? Besides of Eli almost dying. Did you get a chance to talk to him?"

She sighed, moving to sit at the kitchen table. "Well...he said he considers me his girl. So that's good. But I don't think he realizes I told him I loved him."

Zippy joined her at the table. "What are you going to do now then? Just wait for him to say it on his own?"

She lifted a shoulder. "I don't know. I don't want to push him away."

"He went running down the stairs for you. He ain't going anywhere. Speaking of which...who the heck were those girls!? Did you find out?" Zippy asked, sipping her coffee.

She shook her head, frowning. "No. He didn't tell me. Just admitted that it looked bad."

Zippy frowned. "Well I gotta go to work, even though I promised David I wouldn't...you gonna stay here until Eli comes back?"

She sighed. "What is with your family and goin' to work when ya promise not to?" She nodded, though. "I'm gonna stay. Can--can I borrow a dress?"

Zippy smiled, when Trixie connected her family like that. She had a family connection! "yeah, of course." She showed Trixie her closet, even though she was a little embarrassed by it. "I'm gonna get more dresses soon...."
She quickly grabbed one and handed it to her. "I gotta go to work because its our busiest time of the year. Right before Christmas. And I'm getting paid today, which I really need to buy David's Christmas present." And she was fine now. It wasn't a problem.

Trixie nodded, smiling a little. "Guess I oughta get somethin' for Eli, too. But then I guess you guys don't do Christmas, right?" She turned away from her to take off Eli's shirt, pulling on the borrowed dress.
