Re: Danny/Lindsay #11- "Don't Bet Against the Country Girl!"
Ah, family.
I would love to see Lindsay have a brother AND a sister, so that way you can kind of get both views on her family.
Her sister I could see as being younger than she is, and probably a bit peppier. Like, blonde or a dark brunette who has this bubbly personality, but is also very inquisitive. (You can tell I think how much I want to be a writer, right? LOL) I also think she would be supportive of her older sister, in the fact that she would be Lindsay's rock, even though she would be younger than Lindsay. Ah, and when we get to Danny, I could totally see her sister doing something like this:
[Lindsay smiles at Danny, who waves, and he walks down the hall, away from the sisters]
Lindsay's sister: So, Danny, eh?
Lindsay: Yeah, he's a co-worker.
Sister: A co-worker?
Just a co-worker? [raises eyebrows]
Lindsay: Yeah. [bites lip] Yeah, just a co-worker.
Sister: [rolls eyes and laughs] Whatever you say, Lindsay...
And for her brother, I could see - like you all said - him being overprotective of his little sister, but also a softie at heart. Like, at first he would have reservations about Danny, maybe judging him by stuff that he hears/sees.
Lindsay's brother: [watches Danny exit] I don't know, Lindsay.
Lindsay:
Don't know about what?
Brother: [points to Danny's retreating back] Him.
Lindsay: [sighs and rolls her eyes]
Brother: No, Linds, I'm serious. You're too good for that guy. I've heard about what people say he's done and...
Lindsay: [annoyed and defensive] You can't always believe what you hear. He's an amazing person, {insert brother's name here}. He's been there for me when I needed him, and even when I didn't need him. He's not anything that those rumors you hear say he is. Danny Messer is a someone whom I trust, and if you don't like that, then...
Brother: [smirks] You like him. You
really care about this Danny guy.
Lindsay: [blushes and looks away] He's just a...
Brother: [rolls eyes] BS. [looks at Lindsay] And you know it's BS. If you like him so much, then I think you should go for it.
Lindsay: But...
Brother: No 'buts'. I give him the Official Monroe Family Stamp of Approval.
[they both laugh]
Lindsay: [quietly] Thank you. It means a lot to me.
Brother: [smiles] Anytime sis.
So, that was a long scenario, but you get my idea of how I want things to happen.
Anywho, I need to go study for Psych and do my Lit homework/reading. Talk to you all soon!
