Magical Ties 140 Remi's First Date

"How old are you in this time?" Remi doesn't respond. 

"is there anyone bothering you in this time?"no response. Winona decided to stop there and bring her out. If she won't have any response there is no reason to continue. After she is out of hypnosis Winona tells her a few truths. 

"Remi if you won't cooperate I can't help you. No one can hurt you or your family anymore so it's ok to speak up . I had hoped that if we went back to a happier time you would speak . If you don't let me know what is going on in your head I can't help. " with that she gets up and walks out. Maureen walks over beside Remi to comfort her. 

"you know that we love you and want nothing else but to help you. I know that you understand who I am . Onacona and I watched over you even when we could not stop anything from happening. I cried every time you cut yourself. Every time you would take extra pills to stop the nightmares . I was beside you. I will stay beside you always. It's not just Aisling who I came back for. You are my precious child also. You are stronger than most . I need you to show them your strength. You are being stubborn now I'm not sure if it's because your scared. I think it's because it's been so long since you used your voice that your afraid of how it would sound. So stop worrying about how you sound." She kissed her forehead and left her to think. When she went outside the door she motioned to Winona they stood outside . After a few minutes they could hear this horse raspy noise coming from the room. Winona gave her a high five they have a breakthrough. Yona sees them huddled together curious he taps Winona on the shoulder making her jump. 

"what are you doing?" He asks them . Maureen whispers

"listen she is practicing talking. To me it's beautiful but to her I think she is afraid it's ugly sounding. We need to encourage her to talk so that the will get better." He grins he knows what she sounds like . He knocks on the door to let her know it's time to go. 

Remi comes out shyly hoping he did not hear her trying to get used to speaking again. She is very self conscious of how she sounds after so long a time. When they get onto the highway Yona begins to talk to her. 

"since it's so cold I was thinking maybe we can go to the casino at the Inner Harbor . Is that ok or would you rather go to the one by the mall in Baltimore ? We can go shopping and the dinner show. " glancing at her hoping she will give him an answer. She shrugs letting him know it's whatever he wants. He promised himself he would be patient with her,but hearing her talk last night has made him greedy to hear again. She sees his disappointment that she didn't talk. Looking down at her hands she wonders if he will hate her voice with as bad at it sounds to her. 

Yona notices that she looks sad so he takes her hand and brings it up to his lips. Quietly he tells her what's in his heart. 

"Remi it's ok ,I know your still reluctant to talk. It's just when you spoke to me last night my heart lept for joy. That you would choose to talk to me was something I have hoped for. I yearn to have you tell me your heart desires. I know that your self conscious of your voice right now. Just know to me it will sound angelic." 

His words touches her heart that he doesn't care what it sounds like. That even if she is not willing yet to talk he is still ok with it. She thinks for a few moments and asks

"Can we go to the one close to the mall. I would love to shop for Crystal. " the raspy sound has gotten less and her voice is so soft that he could feel tear well up. Nodding yes since his emotions are just beneath the surface he now can't trust his voice. She genuinely begins to laugh at his reaction he laughter sounds like music to him . She looks at him as he drive and gets up the courage to talk to him again. 

"I am about to tell you a secret. You cannot tease me over it. This is my first date. I never had anyone ask me out before." He grins with pride that he will be her first date. 

"Then I promise to make it memorable." He hums with the radio and cannot stop smiling he hasn't felt this happy for a long time. He keeps glancing at her and smiling. 

they arrive at the casino. It's not as glamorous as some of the others , but once you get off the elevator from the parking garage. You can choose to either go into the mall or go gamble. He takes her hand and leads her to the casino . Remi looks around though she works at the casino at home. She has never played since it's not allowed. The inside of the casino is not waist she was expecting . She thought since it was by a mall it would be just a lot of machines. There are two excellent restaurants right when you walk in. The machines are placed in a very appealing way. They go get player cards then to look around. They finds a machine that makes lots of noise and the seat vibrates. To Yona she is like a kid at an arcade. She has laughed and smiled since they arrived. She put a twenty in a machine that had a big wheel . In two spins it locked up and wouldn't let her play. A bell started ringing and lights going off everywhere. Remi just won a jackpot. She was so excited she jumped up and kissed Yona . His heart exploded with joy and he pulled her closer. Her cheeks became red from embarra.s.sment. Yona laughed at seeing her blush he leaned in and kissed her this time. After they brought Remi's winnings they decided to walk across to the mall to shop. Walking into the mall there is a giant food court with a couple of nice restaurants . Yona is glad she chose this one. This way they can do more . While Remi was trying in a dress , Yona went to buy the tickets for dinner show . She was checking out when he got back . They went to pick up a few things for Crystal. Yona was content to just watching her shop and holding her hand while they walk. They pa.s.s a sporting goods store and Remi goes inside. She goes to the hunting section. Watching her meticulously pick out a pink camouflage rifle he looks puzzled. She notices it and smiles at him . Picking up the courage she tells him . 

"Crystal will be six on her next birthday. The uncles or I will need to start teaching her to shoot. Onacona told me he wants to make her bow in the old way. So I just need to get her a rifle. Every child in the family begins to learn when they turn six I can't let her be different just because she has no father. " Yona's heart did a jump in his chest. He just realized that the fact that Crystal needs a father. The thought of anyone but him being her father makes him angry. Is he really in love with this woman in front of him. He looks at her very seriously and tells her

"I will be the one teaching Crystal how to shoot. No one else is going to play her father. I will be Crystal's father from here on out. So when fatherly things arise it will be me. " 

Remi looks at him you can tell her heart is overflowing with joy but not wanting to a.s.sume to much. She looks at him putting her hands on her hips and tells him. 

"shouldn't that be my decision as to who her father is going to be. I can't have her get attached to someone who may not love me and stay with us." 

he loops his arms through hers and pulls her close to him. She can hear the emotion in his voice. 

"you forget I'm not going anywhere I will always be here in her life. Our families are one and I do love her as a father should. I will not just let anyone take care of her. When you were hurt she stayed by my side. Except when I needed to have a meeting with Jasmine or Will . I am not going anywhere. She is mine and if you will let me I want to be with you ." Lowering his head he captures her mouth kissing her breathless. When he lifts his head he keeps her by his side and tells the a.s.sociate to wrap up the gun they are taking it.
