oops..I did it, again

"I still can't believe you did this," Max sighed. The TV was on in the livingroom. He and Daisy were watching episodes of the BIG BANG THEORY, and she had her head in his lap.

"Its not that big of a deal." Daisy looked up at him. "Derrick was just making Josie miserable. I wanted to see her happy. She should have a chance to be happy."

"All right." He wondered then if he was making Daisy miserable, but she kissed his cheek before he could press his lips tight.

"We both know its gonna end badly with those two. And he only calls her, when he needs her. That's what she told me." Daisy informed him.

Max just nodded as he stared at the TV.

She put her arms around his middle and hugged his skinny body, squeezing him with laughter. "You need my Mom's eggrolls."

Now she was tickling him and he laughed. Just when he was sure he had the most boring life ever, Daisy had a way of making everything fun. Her and her family were so kind and a part of him wished he lived there, instead of here.

His Dad wanted to move in, but Asa could only take having him around for a weekend. Max knew. Maybe his Dad knew too. He took a trucking job up north. His Dad couldn't pass it up. It was funny, Max thought, how some people had to keep moving around, and folks like himself didn't want to go anywhere.
