City Comes to the Country (Tyler Night and Whitelily)

Raising her hand, Ele put her thumb to her ear and extended her pinky to her mouth like a phone,

"Hello? Yes, Tyler this is your liver. We haven't talked in a while, and you know, we used to have some real good times. Lately though, you've been really putting me through the ringer and... I think its time we went our separate ways."

She teased and held out her phone hand to Tyler,

"Anything you'd like to say before your liver hangs up?"

City Comes to the Country (Tyler Night and Whitelily)

Rolling her eyes and shaking her head, Ele couldn't imagine being that far gone,

"You're liver is going to call you up one day and tell you it quits. Seriously, no weeks' notice or anything!"

City Comes to the Country (Tyler Night and Whitelily)

Ele laughed, she had never been drunk but she knew what Tyler was talking about,

"There's no shame in that! Sometimes you just have to dance like no one is watching!"

City Comes to the Country (Tyler Night and Whitelily)

"I've only seen it done on TV, or at fake country bars in the city. Do you not dance then?"

She asked, leaning her elbows on the counter.

"A lot of people drink, and you make moonshine for your car."

Ele quipped back, sticking her tongue out at Tyler.

"So is square-dancing and two-stepping an actual thing for country people, or is that just a stereotype?"

City Comes to the Country (Tyler Night and Whitelily)

"Now that sounds more like it!"

Ele cheered, leaning back and nodding. She had been in a fantastic mood all day, and since opening up to Tyler, she didn't feel like she needed to hide anymore. Her fun loving, silly side was coming out, the side very few people got to see.

"I knew you had a bad boy streak in there somewhere!"

City Comes to the Country (Tyler Night and Whitelily)

"Okay, but that's like, you're everyday cutting loose. For you I mean, cars are your hobby. What do you do in the evenings? What does this country boy do to loosen up and shake off the week?"

Ele pressed, raising an eyebrow. If Tyler wasn't going to get the hint, Ele was about to make a giant sign that said,

LET'S GO OUT AND HAVE FUN!

City Comes to the Country (Tyler Night and Whitelily)

"Like I said,"

Ele smiled as she stood up and moved pieces around on the table,

"Literally ten feet. Even my noodle arms can handle that,"

Giggling, Ele flexed her slender right arm. With some of the decorations in place, the table was starting to look fuller and more put together and Ele was feeling more and more excited for how it was shaping up to be. A little while later, Ele went up to the checkout counter and leaned on the cool surface, her hands stained green from the flocking she had been setting,

"So, what's the plan for tomorrow? It's your day off, what do you do to cut loose?"

City Comes to the Country (Tyler Night and Whitelily)

In the arts store, Ele was browsing the aisles, holding a model engine in her hand for size comparison. She wanted the get the set just right, and have it be as close to her painting as possible. The cart she was pushing was slowly filling up with bits and pieces she thought she would need until Ele had to convince herself to stop. Going to the counter, Ele charged the amount to her credit card and carried out six bags of supplies. Going back into Tyler's store, Ele huffed when she set everything down by her table,

"I am so happy that you were literally ten feet away! These were heavy!"

She said, kneeling down and unpacking the bags. There was flocking grass, trees, moss, stones...

"And I have another idea, but I need different supplies."

City Comes to the Country (Tyler Night and Whitelily)

Winking and tapping the side of her head, Ele gave Tyler a cheeky and mischievous smile,

"I've got an idea in my head. Don't you worry about it. I don't know if I'll need paper mache or not but I'll keep it in mind!"

She said, grabbing her jacket and checking for her wallet in the pocket. Satisfied, Ele skipped over to Tyler and gave him another kiss on the cheek before flouncing out of the store,

"See you in a bit!"

She called happily over her shoulder.
