Drabble Challenge: Carrie

[thankful24]

Drabble Theme: Laughter
Couple: Keira/Orlando

I sat there, immobile, as he graced me with his presence. I’d probably have fainted, save for the incredibly goofy interpretation he was trying to accomplish. I smacked my hands to my mouth, trying to force the laughter back down my throat, to no avail. I let my hands fall free, and an honest to goodness laugh escaped my lips.

He stopped, mid-step, and frowned at me. “What’s so funny?” he questioned.

I continued to giggle. “You,” I pointed.

He shook his head and continued his attempt at recreating Justin Timberlake’s dance moves. It wouldn’t have been so terribly funny had he chose a different song. Dancing was so NOT Orlando’s repertoire.


Drabble Theme: Sunset
Couple: Keira/Orlando

“Keir…” He whispered, his voice low and husky, as she pondered the possibilities. Taking in the sight of him, half-naked, with his brown hair in disarray, she followed her instincts, moving cautiously upon the hammock, resting her head on his tan chest.

“Hey…” She whispered softly, against his chest.

“Hi.” He chuckled softly, leaning down to her lips for a series of short, innocent kisses. The kisses were passionate and romantic, but much less urgent and lustful than they had been days earlier. Yet, there was something highly erotic about the way he was soothing her tired with his gentle compassion.

Warm kisses mixed with nervous giggles as they continued their delicate exploration of each other. Staring deep into her gorgeous brown eyes, Orlando allowed his hands to roam over her back, carefully untying the strings of her bikini and removing it from her perfect body.

“I adore you…” He whispered, placing warm kisses on her soft skin as his hands continued exploring, while the sun began it‘s descent in the sky.

drabble theme: waves
couple: O/K

Orlando wandered outside of the house and down to the beach. He briefly smiled, glad he had tonight off to just relax. It had been really hard on the crew and production after the hurricanes, leaving people stressed and crunched for time. He stepped into the surf thinking about the day as he sloshed his feet around. He remembered the days shoot, and everyone laughing when he couldn’t get his lines right. But best of all he decided, was that Keira was back. He had missed her on the shoot these past few days, while she was back in London working on some previous engagements. She seemed so far away from him and he was glad to have her back.

He had come to a strange realization last week. Watching her laughing with Johnny while they were waiting for a lighting set-up it had hit him. He found himself noticing her more and more – her amazing attitude and how she just lost herself when she got into her character. All those crazy comments that kept everyone laughing. And that smile. The smile was definitely starting to take its toll. But he knew the timing couldn’t be worse and worried it was just because they were together all the time, even though he had caught her staring at him a few times but she of course would make some silly face and turn away.

“What’cha doin alone out here?” It was Keira. She fell against him as she dropped her feet in the waves.


drabble theme: children
couple: O/K

"Okay, should we talk names?" Keira asked. This had become a nightly tradition of theirs ever since they knew found out she was pregnant. Orlando turned off the light.

"Of course, Love. Still concentrating on girls names are we?"

"Well, since you insist that's what you want," Keira said placing her hand on his chest. "How about Brynn?"

He frowned, "Emma."

"I like that, but what about Jill?"

"No! That name always reminds me of Jack and Jill went up the hill."

She laughed snuggling closer to him. "Okay, okay. How about Cassie?"

"Hey, I thought it was my turn!" The light bickering until Keira fell asleep in his arms minutes later. Orlando placed a light kiss on her forehead, tightened his grip around his wife, and gave into sleep.


drabble theme: fight- more like a small argument about sleep
couple: O/K

“…Get your butt out of bed right this second!!”

Startled, and nearly jumping off the mattress, Keira’s head shot up groggily, the light coming in from the now opened curtains blinding her at first. A couple of incoherent mumbles came out of her as she forced her eyes opened, coming face to face with three very familiar faces.

“You do realize that you are getting married in a couple of hours, right?” Bailey raised an eyebrow and a smile as she shook her head at Keira.

With the bed sheet now up to her chin, Keira bit into her bottom lip, smiling absent-mindedly as the thought registered with her. The laughter that inadvertently came from her friends was one she recognized all too well. Without even looking she could picture Lissa shaking her head, trying not to laugh, Ashlee rolling her eyes amusedly while Bailey just stared with the phantom of a grin tugging at the corner of her lips.

“Oh my God, she looks like she’s five and you just gave her candy,” Ashlee laughed, playfully hitting Bailey’s shoulder with the back of her hand.

“ I don’t…” Keira replied, the laughter in her voice perceptible even in the fluffiness of her white pillows.

Lissa teased, pulling the covers off of Keira’s body, revealing a young woman who wore a rather large male t-shirt that contradicted all the innocence of the smiley faces imprinted on her boxers.

“Ah Lissa!!!” Keira whined, trying to pull back on the covers.

“Keira!!” her friends retorted in unison.

“Get out of bed,” Bailey laughed out loud, frantically tapping on the mattress near Keira’s feet.

With a groan, Keira took a deep breath and sat up, her hair messily falling on each side of her face as she stared at her three laughing friends.

“Um, Keir?” Ashlee then asked, a slight frown shadowing her laughing features.

“What?” Keira yawned, turning around and seeing her three friends eyeing her attire with curious looks.

“That’s not what you were wearing to bed last night,” Ashlee pointed out with a playfully raised eyebrow, motioning towards the large t-shirt that now adorned her upper body, nearly hiding her silly boxers underneath. “Where d’you get the manly shirt Keir?


“Oh my God, you didn’t!” Lissa let out, her face turning into that of a shocked bridesmaid.

“Keira!” Bailey exclaimed, catching on as Keira lowered her eyes and shyly smiled to herself. “You can’t sleep with the groom the night before the wedding!”

“Why not?” She playfully added with a girlish, innocent shrug. “It was a great stress reliever…”

[missendicott]

I lurves it! They're all aweomse!

[Lola]

I loved them! ;D

[thankful24]

wrote this one a while ago-
THEME: HOME
PAIRING: ORLANDO/KEIRA

Blinking back the tears that threatened to fall, Keira simply continued to look at the house before her. This house, this beautiful house was supposed to represent their hopes, their dreams, and their future…together. And now…now it was his hopes, his dreams, and his future…a future that hadn't included her.

“Would you like to come in?”

Looking at his handsome and caring face, Keira’s mind was screaming for her to say no, to simply drive away and never look back. But when it came to the man sitting beside her, she never listened to her head. With him, it was always her heart. And so she let her heart make the decision for her.

“I’d love to.”

Turning off the car, she got out and quietly followed Orlando up the long pathway. As he fumbled for his key, Keira let her eyes linger on the outside, silently trying to picture what the inside would look like. She had had dreams about this place, and while various scenarios of what it looked like ran through her mind, one thing remained the same. It was always beautiful, beautiful in every sense of the word.

“Can I ask you something Orlando?”

Nodding his head, he waited for her to continue. Taking a deep breath, she stared deeply into his eyes. “Why…why did you buy this place?”

Hearing her emotional question, Orlando’s heart skipped a beat. “Because,” he softly whispered. “ I didn’t want anyone else to have it,” he replied in the most sincere of tones.

[pottypirate]

aww lovely ;D i missed the Drabble, i really have the urge to do some more to.

[missendicott]

So sweet! ^_^

[xstepheezy]

Cute drabbles!

[thankful24]

Theme: Kiss

Keira opened her eyes the next morning to see that her makeup crew was already unloading their usual morning supplies in the other end of her trailer. She rolled over and saw that it was 8:00 am. They’d let her sleep in.

“Ahh, I’m glad you’re up. Orlando told Gore that you were extra tired this morning, so we decided that we’d bring the makeup trailer to you and give you some extra sleep!” Andrea, Keira’s makeup artist and stylist said, smiling.

Keira sat up in her makeshift bed and got out. She sat on a spinning makeup chair and Andrea started to brush her hair. “So, what are we filming today?” Keira asked in a unusually perky voice, which would have been quite normal if she hadn't gotten all of 4 hours of sleep the night before.

“They sent over your script and schedule this morning.” Andrea handed Keira a stack of papers that said KEIRA on the front in messy marker handwriting. She flipped through the papers, saying ‘hmmm’ every once in a while. Finally she got near the end where she blushed and covered her mouth with her hand.

Andrea looked over at the script and smiled, “Aww I’m going to have to stick around for this one, a bit more romantic, isn't it!!”

Keira swiveled around in the chair, messing up what Andrea was doing to her hair, “Shut up!” he said quietly, trying not to gain the attention of the other people in her trailer who were gathering her clothes for the day.

“Hey cool down, Keira. It’s just a love scene and you guys practically kiss all the time!” Andrea said, spinning Keira back so she was facing the mirror again.

“We don’t!” Keira whined, her voice dropping to a whisper. "At least not in public anyway..."


Theme: Reading

“Whatcha doing?” a soft voice dappled with a british twang asked from behind him as he felt two arms encircle his neck and warm breath drift by his ear.

“Oh, reading up on our lives,” he chuckled, grinning ear to ear as he turned his head just a bit so his eyes could meet hers. “Morning, baby,” he smiled. “Sleep well?”

“I slept very well,” she said, smirking at him flirtatiously.

“I would guess so,” he laughed, “It’s pretty late.”

“It is not late, Bloom,” she scoffed, smacking his shoulder playfully. “It’s only like eleven o’clock. I’ve been suffering having to get up early all the time. And I’m gonna have to get up early again tomorrow. You’re lucky I didn’t sleep all day,” she rambled before lowering her tone. “Besides,” she said in a soft, sexy voice, “I was tired. We did go to bed pretty late.”

“I didn’t hear you complaining last night,” he flirted right back.

“No,” she agreed as he invited her to sit right in his lap, “But that’s cause I was doing other things,” she grinned. “Now what’s this you’re reading?” she asked.

“Well I didn’t start anything yet,” he said.

“Oh my God, Orlando, we have to read this one,” she said, hysterically laughing as she pointed to one of the links on the page.

“’O-M-G Major O/K Lovin At That Awards’s Thing,’” Orlando read aloud as he too started to laugh. “What did we do now?” he chuckled as he clicked the link twice.

Drabble Theme: Food
Couple: Orlando/Keira

“Hey, love, how are they coming?” Keira asked.

“Pretty good. These might be my best ones yet, if I do say so myself,” Orlando said as he turned around.

Keira laughed as she looked at Orlando’s I-got-myself-a-new-grill present, a “Kiss the Cook” apron. “Don’t mind if I do,” Keira said as she leaned in and kissed Orlando tenderly on the lips.

“And that’s why all men should have these aprons,” Orlando laughed as he pulled away.

“That good, huh?” Keira joked.

Meanwhile, as their guests looked at them, they joked with each other. “Will the honeymoon ever end for those two?” Orlando's mom asked.

“Probably not,” Replied Keira's dad. “Never could keep their hands off each other for long.”

Drabble Theme: Stars
Couple: Orlando/Keira & Liam (the kid i made up *smiles*)

Orlando wrapped Keira in his arms as they observed their children. Absentmindedly keeping one eye on the grill, Orlando kissed the top of Keira’s head as he breathed in the scent of her hair. “Is it possible to love you more than I already do?”

“Maybe. How much do you love me now?”

“God, more than you’ll ever know.”

“Mummy! Daddy!” Liam cried, running excitedly up to his parents, “Look what I got!” Liam opened his small hands to reveal a small lightning bug, glowing faintly in the palm of his hands. "It glows like the stars."

“Wow!” Orlando said, going along Liam’s excitement. Apparently, that was all the reaction Liam needed, because with that his turned and ran off to rejoin his siblings.

“He is just like you,” Orlando whispered to Keira. It was true. Liam had always been the chatterbox of the family, excited about everything, and always very extroverted. With his creamy skin, hazel eyes, bouncy brown curls, and spunky personality, everyone could tell who his parents were.

“Is that a bad thing?” Keira asked coyly.

“Of course not, love. What could be bad about the woman I fell in love with?”



Drabble Theme: Bedroom
Couple: Orlando, Keira, Liam

Orlando crawled into bed and Keira wedged herself next to him. His arms wrapped tightly around her waist and they fell into a peaceful sleep.

“Mummy!” Keira heard a small voice whisper in the darkness. “Mummy, I had a scary dream!” the voice said again as Keira felt a small hand on her shoulder. Keira rolled over and saw Liam standing there, holding his teddy bear and tears welling up in his big eyes.

“Aww, darling, come here. Can you tell me what happened?” Keira asked sympathetically, hoisting him up on the bed next to her.

“There was this big dog and it was chasing me and I was running but I couldn’t get away and then I thought it was going to eat me, but then I ran faster but then the dog ran faster too and I couldn’t get away from it, Mummy!” Liam rambled on as his unshed tears finally spilled over.

“Shhh, everything's gonna be alright now.”

"Can I sleep with you and Daddy?”

“Of course. Scoot over,” Keira said softly.

Liam crawled further into Keira and Orlando’s bed, lodging his small body between his mother and father. He turned and wrapped his arms around his mother’s waist, still crying a little.

“Shh, Liam, just try to think of happy things ok? You know Daddy and I would never let anything happen to you. Just close your eyes and try to go back to sleep,” Keira said soothingly as she stroked her fingers through Liam’s dark hair.
