"Fairy Land – Dear Ryan"

01.07.07

He's so hot… Liz gasped as she stared at Ryan. He is hot, he's a great actor. He made a name for himself.

Liz watched The OC and leaned back, smiling. She closed her eyes and thought about her boyfriend in California. He's also hot; he's an ultimate dream guy. Liz kept smiling.

"He's my man," she whispered softly with a very subtle smile on her face – the one that never disappears.

She stood up, turning off the TV and walked to the fridge. She took some jell-o and upon opening it, the phone rang. A bit of jell-o made her lip shine red and she licked it as she answered the phone.

"Hello," Liz's tired eyes brightened.

"Liz," a voice from the other line said in excitement. "How are you? I missed you so much!"

Liz sat on the counter by the fridge which was made of black marble. She saw her reflection… and her inevitable smile. Her typical face felt beautiful as the man on the other line admired her.

"I just finished The OC, are you going to school now? I'm about to sleep," she leaned nearer see stare at her reflection.

"Cool. Yeah I'm on my way to school," the guy answered. "I have rehearsals this afternoon. I'm preparing for, ahh, maybe another season of The OC."

Liz's eyes widened.

The voice on the other line continued, "you can still watch me then!"

"Right, but I miss you so much!" their conversation continued.

After a few more minutes, Liz put down the phone, threw the jell-o cup in the bin, and stood out their window. With complete satisfaction with the day's events she picked up the phone once more and called Angie.

"Um… hello?" a tired, sleepy voice answered.

"Angie! It's me, Liz!"

"Yeah?"

"Ben called!"

"Really? Okay. Look, it's like Sunday evening and I've got duty at eight tomorrow. Can we just talk tomorrow?"

"Okay, but I've really got to, like, shout it out! He misses me!"

Angie sounded more upset, "right. Okay, cheerios! Tomorrow then…"

The line went dead.

Liz was satisfied with that, with simply telling Angie about Ben… The OC's Benjamin McKenzie.

Staring at the empty night outside the window, Liz dreamt of Ben's body, his handsome face and how charming he was on TV. She felt how lucky she was knowing him, loving him and him loving her back…
