its a party


"I was just thinking." Amanda had Doyle on the phone. She was finally Elliot free, yet she felt a little bad that he was gone. It was a strange feeling. Maybe she missed him. But this was the best way she could remedy the situation. "You know, it was so sweet what they did for Kayla and Oliver. The wedding shower. Well, maybe we ..we could do something like that for Sam and Elliot."

"They aren't getting married, Amanda." Doyle told her.

"I know. Still..we could ..I want to throw a house warming, for them." Even so, it was renting. But Kyle moved in with them. "Canned goods, that kind of thing. Groceries." She knew Elliot would need towels.

"Are you sure, you're up for that?" Doyle wanted to know.

"Its not a major thing. Just, a cookout. You and Finn should come." She felt bad that she hadn't even met Doyle's new boyfriend. "No Roger to worry about, you know."

Doyle said nothing for the longest while.

"I'll call that friend of Kyle's, see if she wants to help." Amanda mentioned.

"You sure she's just a friend?" Doyle asked.

"I guess." Amanda hadn't really thought much about Kyle and Roxie being together. She just thought of Roxie being Jai's mother. She wanted to be Roxie's friend.

"All right, we'll be there. We'll bring something vegetarian." Doyle reconsidered.

"You will?" Since when had Doyle become vegetarian? Amanda did wonder about this new boyfriend of Doyle's. She was so in hopes she could find someone who'd do the cooking. She guessed she'd have to talk Ellie and Lon into that.
