Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 03, 2011 8:31 pm

Alex gives Alexis some privacy. He walks out onto the balcony, leaning on the railing and staring out over the Chicago skyline.He inhales the night air and exhales slowly.

Micah: Well, that does beg the question then, Alexis. If you enjoy being around me...why?

Pockets Fri Feb 04, 2011 12:29 am

Alexis: You don't treat me like just tits and ass for one. You've got sort of a commanding presence, and those eyes of yours don't exactly help...

A nervous giggle.

Alexis: You could be so nasty with those, but you aren't. Guess you could say you use your powers for good.

She chuckles.

Cryonix Fri Feb 04, 2011 12:31 am

Micah: I...I apprecate that, but I think you misunderstood me, hon. If you liked me that much...why did you break up with me?

Pockets Fri Feb 04, 2011 12:42 am

Alexis glances around and notices Alex is outside. She turns around and continues the conversation.

Alexis: I guess cause you were right... even though I didn't even want to admit it to myself... I knew it was unfair to you and I was trying to convince myself that I wasn't falling in love with him... but when I had to finally make that choice....

Even though she knows he can't see it she shrugs awkwardly.

Alexis: I had to finally admit it to myself....

Cryonix Fri Feb 04, 2011 12:46 am

Micah is quiet for a long time. A very long time.

Micah: I told you once when we were together...Emotions are something that are totally ours. You hurt me...deeply...and honestly, I don't know how long it's going to take for us to be...normal...but...

...if you love him, there is nothing I can do.

Be that as is may...You and me...though it will be difficult...concider it water under the bridge, sister.

Pockets Fri Feb 04, 2011 12:50 am

Alexis: If you want to keep stuff at GCW strictly business for awhile, I understand

Cryonix Fri Feb 04, 2011 12:53 am

Micah: Avoidance is not acceptance, hon. I will have to deal with this...and I'd hope we could work on our friendship. All of us. I said I would lead by example...and I will. Besides, I explained to you and Colin how I feel about...certain things anyway...

Pockets Fri Feb 04, 2011 12:57 am

Alexis: I know... but it would be unfair of me to expect you to be all right there and cheerful about it straight off. I know you're going to need time. Just don't send me any more weird dolls, alright?

She forces out a halfhearted chuckle at her attempt at humor.

Cryonix Fri Feb 04, 2011 1:00 am

Micah: (jokingly) Dolls? Me? Alright...fair is fair. Listen, Lexi. I want to say this to you. Just listen. I do love you...and your brother. You two have gotten me through a lot. You are...very special to me...you and Colin. Know that, alright?

Pockets Fri Feb 04, 2011 1:01 am

Alexis: I do, I know... and thank you.

Cryonix Fri Feb 04, 2011 1:03 am

Micah: I guess in more than one way...I should...ahem...let you go. I'm sure your vanilla coke is sitting on the table...

...oh, one more thing. Did you tell Alex that you and I...um...

Pockets Fri Feb 04, 2011 1:07 am

Alexis: We're not going that quick! The topic hasn't come up yet. When it does I'll let him know I have... experience.

Her voice lowers.

Alexis: I do not regret you being my first.

Cryonix Fri Feb 04, 2011 1:10 am

Micah: Well, I would hope not. The couple of times we did...I remember we were damn good at it, actually. Smile

Do me a favor, though...don't compare us. Just don't let it even enter your mind. Please do that for me, alright? I'll let you go hon. You u...um...

Alexis can still hear the hurt...the deep hurt...but he is trying his best.

Micah: ...You um...take care, alright?

Pockets Fri Feb 04, 2011 1:13 am

Alexis: I know... I won't. You take care too. Um, well... I guess see you later.

Cryonix Fri Feb 04, 2011 1:15 am

Micah: Night Alexis...Oh right...one last thing, hon...could you let Alex know...

...I really enjoyed that kiss. He is a hell of a kisser...

Pockets Fri Feb 04, 2011 1:21 am

Alexis: I'll... let him know... night Micah...

She breaks the connection and walks out to the balcony, shivering in the biting cold of the Chicago winter. She slips next to Alex and takes his hand in both of hers, rubbing warmth into it.

Alexis: It's safe to come back in now.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 04, 2011 6:25 am

Alex jumps as Alexis' touch snaps him out of whatever trance he was in. He suddenly realises he's freezing and steps back inside, shivering.

"So.... are you feeling..... better...... about things now?"

Pockets Fri Feb 04, 2011 8:38 am

Alexis continues rubbing everything above the belt to try and get some warmth back into Alex.

Alexis: Yeah, everything was taken care of.

She looks up at him, grinning.

Alexis: Oh, and Micah thinks you're a great kisser... I have to agree.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 04, 2011 8:41 am

Alex rolls his eyes.

"Well..... that's.... sweet. But i think I value your opinion a little higher than his."

Pockets Fri Feb 04, 2011 8:46 am

Alexis looks up at him with mock sternness, pulling him toward her until their noses are touching, and staring him straight in the eyes.

Alexis: I said I agreed with that.

She does her best to mimic the kiss Micah had shared with Alex earlier.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 04, 2011 8:49 am

As they break the kiss Alex can't help but laugh.

"Well.... you're certainly a better kisser than Micah..... and I find it deeply disturbing that I know that.

Pockets Fri Feb 04, 2011 8:56 am

Alexis walks back over to the table where the Vanilla Cokes still are. She lifts one up.

Alexis: Well, here we are, finally. Here's to us.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 04, 2011 9:01 am

Alex chuckles and clinks his bottle to hers.

"To us. Finally. I'm sorry it took so long."

Pockets Fri Feb 04, 2011 9:09 am

Alexis takes a drink and puts a finger over Alex's mouth.

Alexis: Shh, no regrets. We're here now.
