Somewhere Not Over the Rainbow - 16 & 17/17

I missed posting this last night because of the down time, so here are the last two parts.

Part 16 has a bunch of word for word dialog, I know it, it was a choice I made, don't hate me.


It's been a wild ride and I hope you've enjoyed it. I know that I've loved every minute of it.



Part 16... )

Somewhere Not Over the Rainbow - 15/17

So I've been kind of an idiot and forgot (for a year) to post the rest of this.

::looks around:: Please don't hurt me.

If you need to catch up on what's gone down so far, there's the story index.

A big thanks goes to the most awesomest beta in the word, [livejournal.com profile] erinm_4600. Every one should shower her in chocolate and tatter tots and what ever else she wants 'cus she's that awesome (and her birthday is coming).


For the last four annuals, her cover was as a Madam in the Sin District... )

"Somewhere Not Over the Rainbow" - Part 14/17

Story Index - Part 14

The Realm of the Unwanted really was a place unlike no other in the Zones. About seventy annuals ago, the Outer Zones had been rocked by storms for nearly a month. When the skies finally cleared, there were two-hundred Indo-Asian refugees scattered across the land. At the time, the Outer Zone had been at war and a rumor was passed that they were really spies. More then fifty had died before the crown could intervene. The Realm was set up for the remaining people as a haven.

Read it, you know you want to... )

"Somewhere Not Over the Rainbow" - Part 13/17

Parts 1-12 can be found at the Story Index. Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] erinm_4600 for her amazing beta skills.


The morning had passed quietly; Lorain had made breakfast while Ralf and the children had done the morning chores. After the meal Ralf had gone off the check the trap lines while Lorain had set the children down for some schooling. Wills was memorizing spelling words with his frog and she was helping Ella work out some math problems when the alert bell went off.

Looks like them Longcoats down on the crack decided to pay us a visit after all... )

Somewhere Not Over the Rainbow - Part 11

More fic, wee!




Wyatt was right, a storm had come. In the space of ten minutes the sky had gone black, so Wyatt left the table to close up the barn.

There's a light in here. )

Post the Four-Hundred and Twenty-Nineth - I am so stupid.

Okay, I'm a Trip/T'Pol (Star Trek: Enterprise) shipper. I think I have read every story at the House of Tucker (big flippin' archive). The first story I read was "Passionfruit" and it got me hooked, my favorite story is "The Firebrand" which is all kinds of awesome. Both of these stories were written by the same author.

Fast forward several years.

I'm now looking for any Tony/Pepper (Iron Man) stories I can find. There is a multi chapter story called "Edin in a Box" that is wonderful.

But the authors name is tickling the back of my brain.

Then it clicks, the name is the same.

So I ask if she is the same author, she answers "yup", I fangirl all over the place.

Yeah, I was that fan - "OMG! You are so amazing! I reread your stories all the time! You're awesome!!!!!111!!"

"Somewhere Not Over The Rainbow" - Part 6

Warning: This part is pure crack. Movie all drinks away from the screen and I am not responsible for what you go and try to do after reading this.

The rest of the story can be found here.

Part 6

“Yeah, we're gonna need a good two, maybe three, more bundles to finish this.” Hank said as he and Wyatt crawled over the farmhouse roof. “That ice build-up last winter did way more damage then I thought.”

“You want me to go into town?” Wyatt asked.

“Nah, Em's getting out of work in an hour.” Hank said as he made his way slowly to the ladder. “I'll pick her up, then we can swing by the lumber yard and get the shingles and the stuff for that new gardening shed she wants.”

Wyatt nodded his head and followed the older man to solid ground. “I'll get started on ripping out the junk. I should be able to clear most of it by sunset. That way we can start going first thing.”

Hank smiled. “Great, and just let DG know when you're hungry; she's kind of taken over the kitchen for some extra P.E. credit thing.”

Wyatt started jogging toward the barn, “Will do!”.

___________________________________________________________________________________

El circulo is another simple pattern that you can make from the Two-Step Walk. Just do a set of Strolls, pivoting always to the left after each step so that you circle back to the beginning of the pattern.”

DG looked down at the paper footsteps on the floor.

“Stupid credit hours.”

She turned the CD on and read over the instructions once more. “Notice the feeling the different patterns give. The Stroll lets you travel and feels smooth. The Chase feels more abrupt.”

The music started to play and DG began to follow the footsteps on the floor.

___________________________________________________________________________________

Wyatt climbed down the ladder and started towards the rain barrel, but the sounds of an accordion reminded him about DG's project and curiosity got the better of him.

Wyatt climbed onto the porch and looked through the screen door; there was DG in jeans and tee-shirt, but with a pair of red heels trying to navigate the steps of some dance.

Wyatt was about to turn away when he saw DG jerk, then stumble. “Shit!”

“Havin' some trouble there, DG?”

“No, I'm fine.” DG eased down to the floor and looked at her foot “It's my shoes that have the problem.”

Wyatt glanced at the papers DG had spread out over the table, “Well, of course you fell over, kid.” he said without thinking “You're trying to to tango without a partner.”

As soon as the words left his mouth Wyatt knew he was in trouble. DG's head whipped up to look at him and Wyatt silently cursed his Aunt May.

“Wait, what?” DG sat on the floor sputtering. “You... Tango? How'd you... What?”

Wyatt sighed, “Take off the shoes before you break your ankle.”

While DG kicked the heels off and tossed them into a corner Wyatt turned to the CD player and scanned through the tracks until he found one with a strong, slow tempo.

Wyatt closed his eyes and took a deep breath; it had been a long time since he had done this.

___________________________________________________________________________________

DG did think she had ever been through so many emotions in such a short time before. First there was the frustration at her self; the anger when her shoe got caught; embarrassment when she found out that Wyatt had seen the whole thing; and confusion at Wyatt's order to take off her shoes...

But right now, when he turned around from the counter and walked over to her, all of that was washed away by the biggest wave of lust she had ever felt. The man was still wearing his freaking toolbelt!

He slid his right hand on to her back and pulled her into his chest and DG nearly passed out.

“We're just gonna walk.” Wyatt said, then slowly smiled. “Step back on your right.”

And then they were walking - back and forth, side to side - and suddenly everything DG had been reading earlier about smooth, flowing movements made sense, 'cus, really, all she wanted to do right now was just melt into Wyatt's embrace.

___________________________________________________________________________________


Alright, who the hell was that in the kitchen? No way it was DG. DG who I pick up after work and tease while we worked on her bike and...

How long have those been hiding under her shirt?

All soft and firm and...

STOP IT!

This is DG. The daughter of family you've been working for for the last seven years. She was just a kid you first met. She was fourteen, a child!

But that was no child who had slid her knee up your leg.

She's what? Twenty-one? Twenty-one isn't a child.

Oh, god. Not a child, not a kid. Nope.

A women.

“DG.”

Oh, god. That should not sound so...

Crap! It sounds sexy. It shouldn't sound sexy.

Crap, crap, crap, crap, crap!

Okay, breath, breath. This isn't such a big deal. It's been seven years since you've really been close to a woman. It's just hormones. It's not you'd ever really want to lick that spot right between her...

“Crap.”

Crap, crap, crap, crap, crap!
