Smile

Smile at him. Smile as if it were going out of fashion, this thing you do with your mouth, with your lips and your teeth. Smile as if he's struck right through to the heart of you, and showed you what smiling is all about.

Go on, you can do it.

He was funny, after all.

Smile more, smile harder, make him believe it, with your eyes staring up at him, face stretched wide away as if...

As if what he just said didn't matter, didn't mean anything, wasn't true.

Everyone falls in love with me, Doyle.

'course they do.

You're a sweetheart - thank you!

And oh - nearly melted to a puddle when I saw those two icons close together! That Bodie is the perfect Bodie for that Doyle! *vbg*

You know, you are right! Hmmm...they'd fit together perfectly, wouldnt they?

Ah, now, okay. That was not good. Bodie not, the drabble! *g* Bodie, the narcisist, strikes out. Berk. Thanks, I think.

Heeee! I was thinking more oblivious Bodie, but you're right, it could very well be that Bodie's been horrid to our Doyle - especially from the look on Doyle's face! Oh, I love to hear how drabbles are read! *g*

Oh I'm so glad you do - and Pros-inspired bed-smiling (?!) is never a bad thing, so yeay! *g* And thank you!

Eeep! That was like a punch in the gut... in a very good way! Bittersweet, and that sense of desperation... *shivers* ♥

I'm glad my gut-punching is the good kind... *g* And I love your reaction, so thank you for that too!

Sheesh, you have been in a rather dark mood that day, haven't you? Poor Doyle - hurting again. But then again you can never be sure with Bodie. Maybe he just tried to cover his own insecurity. At least I hope so...

Ah, sometimes you have to hurt to realise how good the other days are, right? *g*
