Rainbow Snippets*-- Happy End of Summer

...or maybe not so happy. I'm not much for cold weather anymore! I'm writing this up quickly because I have to work over the weekend, but enjoy it if you can! 

Peppercorn, ready for his closeup! (Actually, he was trying to help me write.)

This week's snippet:

Scoey has moved into The House and is feeling a bit lonely but Jay comes looking for him. Part 3 of 4. Read part 1 here and part 2 here. 

“Whatcha doing?” Jay asked as he finished peeling off his winter gear and plopped gracelessly onto the couch. 

“Exploring. This place is amazing, like some expensive B&B. Your apartment makes more sense now. Honey decorated it, didn’t she? I knew Richard didn't match the pillow shams with the curtains.”

Jay shrugged--the apartment was like that when he'd moved in so he couldn’t say one way or another. “Has anyone told you about the attic? If you need anything, go explore. I went up there with Honey and Headphones. It’s amazing. I found an 80’s style jacket that was straight out of Miami Vice.”

“You aren’t old enough to remember that show,” Scoey scoffed.

“DVD. Mom had a thing for Tubbs.”

Scoey shook his head as he settled down on the window seat with the brightness behind him, the light creating a halo through his short hair. Jay enjoyed the effect and let his mind drift, losing track of their conversation.
