Alex: I knew he'd get the message that way.... He'd do the same to me if I did to mum, what he did to you....

....besides I know he'll really like you as soon as he gets over the fact that your surname is O'Ryan.

Pockets Thu Feb 10, 2011 9:20 am

Alexis: He and my dad were getting along alright at the hotel. I know it was more the situation than anything, but it was something.

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 10, 2011 9:27 am

Alex smirks

Alex: My dad will never forgive your dad for what he did. He nearly killed the three most important people in my dad's life. But there was a time when Ashley was one of my dad's closest friends..... he was a groomsman at my parent's wedding. That's why the betrayal hurt as much as it did. But there's a part of my dad that still feels sorry for his old friend. I mean.... he lost the very things that he nearly took from my dad.

Pockets Thu Feb 10, 2011 9:41 am

Alexis's smile is ironic.

Alexis: Karma has a way of biting you in the ass. I can understand why he'd feel that way about dad, but why hate me for what he did? Or is there another part of the story that I still never got told?

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 10, 2011 10:02 am

Alex: Well I think you can imagine how bad he wanted to kick your mum when she got pregnant with you.... but he couldn't do it. He doesn't hate you..... he just knows he'll never be able to even the score.

Pockets Thu Feb 10, 2011 10:08 am

Alexis sighs.

Alexis: Our parents have issues....

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 10, 2011 10:20 am

Alex pulls her closer and kisses her.

Alex: Yup..... an yet here we are. You and me. They can have all the Jerry Springer shit they want going on. Isn't going to change how much I Love you.

Pockets Thu Feb 10, 2011 10:32 am

Alexis snuggles in and sighs happily.

Alexis: I could get very used to this.

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 10, 2011 10:41 am

Alex laughs.

Alex: Well you just stay right there for as it takes for you to get used to it..... I'm not going anywhere.... except maybe to buy you a new outfit.

He looks a the tattered remains of Alexis' shirt on the floor.

Pockets Thu Feb 10, 2011 10:47 am

Alexis looks over at the shirt and giggles.

Alexis: You really did a number on that. It's not like it was one of my favorites or anything though.

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 10, 2011 10:55 am

Alex goes into his bedroom and returns a moment later with a black garment bag with a red silk bow on it.

Alex: Really? Well I suppose I should take this back then?

Pockets Thu Feb 10, 2011 10:57 am

Alexis stares at the bag.

Alexis: When did you have a chance to get that?

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:04 am

Alex: I ordered it before we left for Miami. I didn't know if we'd be back before Valentine's Day. Had Shawn pick it up and leave it here.

Pockets Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:07 am

Alexis giggles and takes the bag.

Alexis: Were you planning on attacking my poor shirt then?

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:19 am

Alex smirks.

Alex: I wasn't in any way expecting to tear your clothes off quite so literally. This is just a happy coincidence... Don't worry baby.... I'll be sure to undress you nice and slowly next time.....

Alexis opens the bag to reveal a beautiful custom tailored, black Yves Saint Laurent dress.

Pockets Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:28 am

As he opens the bag an envelope falls out, addressed to him, from Shawn. Alexis gasps at the dress.

Alexis: Oh! It's beautiful!

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:32 am

Alex cant help but smile widely at her reaction.

Alex: Go ahead.... see if it fits.

He sees the envelope and reads.

Pockets Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:34 am

As Alex is reading, Alexis goes off to change.

Cryonix Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:36 am

Inside the envelope, is this picture...

...and on the back of it are the words, "DADDYS FIRST BULL RIDE! THANK GOD IT WASN'T MECHANICAL! NEXT TIME YOU'RE AT THE BAR...YOU GET A 'POPPED CHERRY' DRINK...ON THE HOUSE!" -Shawn Cortez...

P.S. "I AM HENRY THE 8TH I AM!"

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:42 am

Alex chuckles, pulls out his phone and texts Shawn.

Alex: Thanks for collecting that dress for me..... and for the note.... it was very thoughtful. However since I don't drink.... the cocktail will ironically have to be "Virgin Popped Cherry" ....Asshole.

Cryonix Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:44 am

Shawn texts back...

"No worries...I sent the same note to your dad...he'll drink enough for the both of you. Smile

Though I think your mom is going to kill me....again....sigh..."

Pockets Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:50 am

Alexis, in the dress, looks over Alex's shoulder.

Alexis: What's that?

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:53 am

Alex sighs.

Alex: It's Shawn being.... well.... Shawn. He decided to leave me a little gift when he dropped off the dress.

He hands her the note.

Pockets Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:57 am

Alexis looks at the note and shakes her head.

Alexis: Wow... just... wow.

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 10, 2011 11:59 am

Alex stands, not even breathing, eyes and moth wide open as he stares at Alexis in the dress.
