#GrahamBachman

GRAHAM- “It happened once before...years ago. The night of the prom. I went back to the gym and I heard someone crying...and...”

THYMIAN- “Oh my Graham, seriously?  That was five years ago, you never thought about telling me about it until now!?”  I could never trust you now.  Maybe if you would have told me about that then, maybe...just maybe this would not be happening right now...”

Morgan Graham Bachman arrived at 8:27 p.m....not in the hospital lobby, but in the delivery room...

As Graham requested, a DNA test was done, and the little boy was 99.99% affirmed as his.

As he looked upon his son, he knew his life would be forever changed. And his life would not include his first and only love, but this son, would be enough....

GRAHAM- “What are you saying?”

THYMIAN- “I think you know what I am saying Graham. You don’t have to read my mind.  You know the person I am. It’s over with us.  I care about you, and I want you to do the right thing by this child and Daisy. Don’t do what your father done and run from your responsibilities. It could never be the same with us.  I am sorry.  Truly I am, but I think you should go.”

Once they make their way around to the lounge area, Daisy moves in....caresses her hand across Graham’s cheek....

DAISY- “You have grown into quite a hot man, Graham....you look amazing.”

GRAHAM- Listen, Daisy, it is good to have run into you, but I need to go home. Seriously this meeting is important tomorrow. Maybe we can catch up again soon.”

DAISY- “Graham...it’s still early, the bar don’t close for another hour. You have the rest of your life for meetings and seminars and transitions....come on, lighten up, have a little fun. I am sure it’s been a while since you let yourself have fun, right?”

GRAHAM- “Yeah, but right now isn’t...

DAISY- “Right now isn’t the right time? Now you sound like Thymian...if it isn’t the right time, why did we just happen to run into each other.  Right now is all we have, Bachman.”

[mwgaybachelor]

GRAHAM- “I really probably should go home.  I have a meeting tomorrow at work. Transition meeting.  Taking over the office here in Oasis Springs.  The boss is going to Parisims to open a new location there.”

DAISY- “Sounds like you are pretty important...come on just one more, for old time sake.”

GRAHAM- “Okay, just one more...”

[mwgaybachelor]

Their drinks were served, and Graham downed his pretty quickly and ordered another...

DAISY- “I wouldn’t be too concerned, you probably dodged a bullet. Marriage isn’t what it is all cracked up to be.”

GRAHAM- “Oh, you married?”

DAISY- “I was, not anymore. Divorce was final right before I moved here.  That’s why I’m here. Met this guy in San Myshuno, Craig Belfrey. We hit it off hot and heavy. decided on a whim to get married. Came home one night and he was in bed with this girl and her husband....he was getting reamed by the girl’s husband while he was pounding her...”

GRAHAM- “Oh...shit. How long were you married?”

DAISY- “Three months, four days and six hours.”

GRAHAM- “Sorry.”

DAISY- “Don’t be sorry, it was stupid on my part. I didn’t even know him that well,. Just saying, if her reasoning is it’s not the right time, it probably never will be, Graham.  And to be honest, Thymian never seemed like the little sweet housewife type anyway.  Let’s grab another drink and go over to the lounge area, and catch up...you hear Tiffany and Terrance have a kid!!?  Isn’t that crazy!?””

Meanwhile over in Oasis Springs, Daisy arrived at Graham’s house right on time.  She was pleased that he agreed to meet her, finally. Things were finally going to go her way for once!!

[mwgaybachelor]

GRAHAM- “What the hell do you mean you are pregnant with my baby!!??”

DAISY- “You mean you can’t tell, that I am pregnant, Graham, seriously?”

GRAHAM- “But....are you sure?”

DAISY- “Of course I am sure, look at me!!  Do I not look pregnant?”

GRAHAM- “No, I mean, yes, you look pregnant, but are you sure it is mine?”

[mwgaybachelor]

Without another word she turned her back away from him.  He started to say something, but he knew it was to no avail. As he walked out the door he said it anyway...

GRAHAM- “I will always love you Thymian. You made me a better person.”

After the door shut, she began to sob....thank goodness her fathers were not here. Now she was all alone....

She sat down on the sofa, and a few minutes later the doorbell rang. Hopefully he hadn’t returned....

After Graham left the wedding reception, and his marriage proposal being rejected by Ty, he decided a drink or two was in order.  Graham would be taking over Devin’s Oasis Springs division once he left for Parisims, so he found a nice place close to his childhood home in Oasis Springs, which happened to be right down the road from a nice little Jazz Bar....

It was daylight once they got out of Daisy’s bed,...

GRAHAM- “Listen, Daisy I really need to go...”

DAISY- “I know, a transition meeting right? Go on, get to your meeting... You know where I live, if you ever...

GRAHAM- “Daisy, I’m sorry, this can’t happen again.  I love Thymian, and we will be married someday.”

DAISY- “It’s all good, Graham, no strings...just so you know I’m here if you ever...

GRAHAM- “Bye Daisy, it was good running into you...”

DAISY- “Yes.... it certainly was.”

[mwgaybachelor]

Graham gets up from the bench and stands in front of Thymian, and looks down at her and takes her face into his hands.  She looks up at him, knowing what is about to transpire, and a tear begins to seep from her beautiful green eyes....

GRAHAM- “Yes, your husband.  I have given a lot of thought to this, and I love you Ty.  I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want to go to Alexandria with you, and anywhere across the world that this journey may take us.  Thymian Rose Boedell, will you be my wife...?”

He reaches into his pocket....

[mwgaybachelor]

As they get up from the bench, Graham decides to......

THYMIAN- “oh....my...”

[mwgaybachelor]

The thirty minutes soon turned into almost an hour, as Graham and Thymian found a beautiful spot to sit and enjoy the peacefulness of Oasis Springs.  Graham got brave and decided to put his arm around Thymian...she didn’t push away.

GRAHAM- “You know, to be so smart, and being a witch and all...you are very beautiful and very nice Thymian Boedell...”

THYMIAN- “Why thank you Graham Bachman.. most witches are not ugly.....and for you to always try to be some tough guy, you are pretty handsome and sweet yourself.”

GRAHAM- “I don’t think anyone has EVER said I was sweet.  Maybe a little dumb, and cute, but never sweet.”

THYMIAN- “Well, like I said, when you remove all the pretenses, you get to see the real person.  I kind of like the real person you are Graham.”

GRAHAM- “Seriously?  You like me?”

THYMIAN- “Yeah....yes, I do. You are okay in my book.  You have a good heart.  I think you are a lot smarter than you give yourself credit too.”

GRAHAM- “Oh...no trust me, I am pretty dumb...and the sweet part, just don’t tell anyone, Okay?”

THYMIAN- “Okay, it’s our secret.”

GRAHAM- “And your secret is safe with me...Well, we better get back to the bike, AAA should have been here by now....”

THYMIAN- “Yeah, the sun is starting to go down.”

GRAHAM- “Can I ask, just one more question?”

THYMIAN- “Sure, what is it?”

GRAHAM- “Are you a good witch...or a bad witch?”

THYMIAN- “HAHA....That depends on the time of the day, and if I’ve had my coffee yet!!”

[mwgaybachelor]

Graham arrived at the Bella-Nico House around noon....

NICO- “Graham....hello, I am Nico, Thymian’s father.”

[mwgaybachelor]

GRAHAM- “To be honest... I think I just ran out of gas...”

 THYMIAN- “Seriously?  You brought me all the way out here in the desert and ran out of gas??? That sounds like you planned it, Graham....”

GRAHAM- “Oh....no I swear, it wasn’t planned.  Really.....I didn’t even think about it, and there are not many gas stations around here any more...”

THYMIAN- “I am only joking with you.  I don’t think you planned to bring me out here, run out of gas and then seduce me in the beautiful desert...”

GRAHAM- “Well, now that you mention it....  No, I am kidding. I am texting AAA, they can send me some gas out here....okay, there... They said it’s going to be about a half an hour to 45 minutes...”

THYMIAN- “Okay, Let’s explore some more then!”
