Third Floor Common room: Friday evening [6-29-07]

Lana had chosen to avoid the water fight and was now curled up on the couch in the common room eating popcorn and watching an SUV marathon. There was plenty of popcorn and soda around for anyone else who might happen by.

Billy probably still had some sand or salt in his hair from the beach as he made his way back to his room. But he couldn't resist the lure of an occupied common room. "Hey Lana."

She turned her attention away from the screen long enough to see who was there. "Hey Billy," she said as she grabbed another handful of popcorn.

"Hey. What's on?" He made sure he was dry enough before plopping down on a chair.

"SUV marathon," Lana said without looking up. "The male detective is gorgeoua."

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"Is that the cop show with the different spinoffs in other countries?"

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"One of them," she agreed. "I like this version the best."

"Can I have some popcorn?" he asked, wondering if he'd be able to figure the episode out, coming in on the middle of it.

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"Sure," Lana said absently, waving to the big bowl up on the counter. "There's plenty. Help yourself."

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"Sweet." He got a smaller bowl from the cabinet and transferred some popcorn into it. After watching the show a bit, he started to suspect someone, not knowing it was actually one of the series regulars.

Lana was thoroughly absorbed in the episode, letting herself be pulled right into the story.

"I think he did it." Billy finally said, unable to keep quiet about it anymore. It was one of the witty forensics people. Though Billy didn't know that.

Lana looked at him curiously. "You haven't seen this much, have you? That's one of the good guys - on the team, you know?"

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"Oh. No I haven't. Oops." He grinned ruefully. "Sorry buddy." he aplogized to the character.

"I'm sure they don't mind," Lana said, eyes still glued to the screen. But you might want to consider the father. I think it might be him."

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

Billy sighed. "Figures." he muttered. "Hmm, could be." He started watching that guy more carefully. "I think you're right."

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

Lana shrugged. "Hard to say. They do like to keep you guessing."

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"Oh good, those are the best kinds of mysteries."

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

Lana nodded. "I really like them that way."

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

Billy snickered at a particularly witty line. "Good dialogue's nice too."

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

She smiled. "Mmmhmmm... It's not just the eye candy."

"Yeah, who knew cops were that good looking?"

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

Lana just smiled to herself, thinking of what Maggie had said about Jim becoming a cop, and quietly watched the rest of the episode. When the end credits rolled, she stood and gathered the rest of her things together. "Night, Billy. See you later."

Billy waved, deciding not to get up just yet. "Night."
