Re: Colin's Austin,TX pad

He doesn't stir at all. He doesn't want to. His heart is heavy, his breathing labored, his chest tight. Tears continue to fall.

"Yes son...feel the poison of my truth coarse through your veins. It is my gift to you...your absolute corruption. See how you're not needed? Alexis doesn't need you, Alex doesn't need you...neither does Colin, Carmella or Jimi. You were a curse the day you were born...embrace it, son...use what I have left to destroy this world...my son..."

Colin cleans up the kitchen, hoping Micah will have woken up by then.
But he doesn't.
Colin walks over to the door, lightly tapping
Colin(softly):"Micah?"

Cryonix Mon Feb 07, 2011 2:09 am

No answer...labored breathing.

"He doesn't care, Micah...I do...the people I left for you...do....here...here son...remember..."

Like his body is moving on his own, he reaches into his pocket and finds a single razorblade.

"The pain is a rush, isn't it? Come on...indulge..."

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 07, 2011 2:10 am

Colin reaches for the doorknob. He doesn't want to be a dick and walk in on Micah but...

Cryonix Mon Feb 07, 2011 2:14 am

"That's it son...that's it son...cut yourself...it's...who you are..."

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 07, 2011 2:16 am

Colin starts to turn the knob...

Cryonix Mon Feb 07, 2011 2:21 am

"Hurry son...you're almost there..."

Micah: Why...why does it have to be so...why does this happen to me? Am I such a monster...that I can't have some happiness?

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 07, 2011 2:23 am

Colin isn't sure why, but he stops turning the knob and lets go of it
Maybe...maybe what? I dont know..
he looks at the door again

Cryonix Mon Feb 07, 2011 2:27 am

"Let it bite your flesh, son...

Micah stares at the razorblade, bites back the tears and starts to lower the blade to the scar on his neck...

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 07, 2011 2:30 am

With a sigh Colin opens the door
Colin:"Micah are you alri-"
he stops in disbelief

Cryonix Mon Feb 07, 2011 2:33 am

Micah: Colin...I...I can't stop...it's...

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 07, 2011 2:43 am

In a flash Colin is pinning Micah down to the bed, his hands holding Micah's and the blade
Colin:"THEN WHY DON'T YOU JUST DO IT?! YOU GREEDY SON OF A BITCH!"
he rips the knife from Micah's grasp, slashing his hand wide open.
He throws the blade out the door, tears streaming down his face
Colin:"Son of a bitch. The hell are you thinking? I mean...what the hell are you thinking? Please.."
He grabs Micah by the collar, blood pouring out of his hand
Colin:"Tell me why you would even consider doing that...please."

Cryonix Mon Feb 07, 2011 2:50 am

Micah reverses the hold and now is staring at Colin...

Micah: WHY? YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY? I'M TIRED OF BEING JEALOUS OF YOU! GOD, HELP ME....I'M TIRED OF BEING JEALOUS OF YOU...

YOU AND YOUR FATHER LOVE EACH OTHER, BUT YOUR TOO DAMN STUBBORN TO SEE IT! EITHER OF YOU! ALEX'S DAD LOVES HIM! LOVE AND HAPPINESS EVERYWHERE...AND WHAT DO I GET...A FATHER THAT WOULD TORTURE ME IN ORDER TO AWAKEN HIS LITTLE MONSTER!

Micah breaks down into tears...

Micah: I can't...I can't...even concider my family...family. That family is...Jenny, Gabby and Carmella...I'm an outcast...a monster...and you know...what is to be done with monsters...

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 07, 2011 3:01 am

Colin gets an arm free and swings, hitting Micah in the head just enough to send him back a bit. He pushes him into the wall then looks at the blood still streaming from his hand
Colin:"We are only what we choose to be. Not what others chose for us. That's conforming."

he looks up at Micah

Colin:"I know your not a conformist. And I know your not a monster because I know you don't want to be one. You are a Saint by choice. You are my brother by choice. I would rather stand between you and any blade, be it held by you or somebody else..
he holds his wounded hand up, drops it and slides down to the floor, his body laying against the bed
Colin:"Then see you get hurt. Fuck Stu. Stu is gone. Forever. No matter what that prick psycho told you. I'm your family and I love you. Man... You're not one of them you're one of us. "

Cryonix Mon Feb 07, 2011 3:04 am

Micah: Why......why can't I shake this? I'm...I'm just so...tired...

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 07, 2011 3:06 am

Colin:"What's been going on with you? No secrets among brothers."

Cryonix Mon Feb 07, 2011 3:12 am

Micah: Colin...I've....I've been battling depression since I was a child. I've been taking pills forever...but...it doesn't seem to dull the pain. Seeing you estranged from your father...who loves you...he just doesn't know how to express it, yet...to you or Alexis.

Don...Don't get me started on Alexis...It seems that most people believe her happiness is more important than mine...same with Alex.

I guess what I'm saying is....it's so hard to lead the Saints...when I have...resentment for all of you and your...very easily fixable lives...

...your scars can heal...

...if you let them...mine...will remain forever. I can't talk to anyone without them thinking..."He's the son of THAT GUY!"....It will never.go.away.

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 07, 2011 3:18 am

Colin:"No...you're the son who survived that monster. That stood up for his mother and did the right thing, even if it meant his life. You're the son that proved to be better then anything your father or anybody else could believe you to be...
Or are you going to prove ME wrong?"

Cryonix Mon Feb 07, 2011 3:20 am

Micah looks at Colin's hand...and takes it in his...

Micah: ~sigh~ Why did you do this, Colin? You didn't need to.

He kisses the wound...

Micah: Prove you wrong? How would I possibly even begin to do that?

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 07, 2011 3:24 am

Colin:"Yes I did...Me...and you....we've been through to much for me not to."

he stares at his hand, then at Micah

Colin(with a sigh):"Never try to find out how."

Cryonix Mon Feb 07, 2011 3:25 am

Micah: It sounds like the girls are back from where they went. You should go be with Amber...be happy for both of us.

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 07, 2011 3:28 am

Amber:"Colin? Why is there a knife laying in the hallway?"

Colin looks at Micah and laughs under his breath

Colin:"I'm never going to hear the end of it when she see's my hand..."

Cryonix Mon Feb 07, 2011 3:31 am

Micah smiles at the girls as he walks out the door...

Micah: I need to get some fresh air. I'll be back.

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 07, 2011 3:36 am

"Oh sure..leave when I was about to lay blame on you..

Amber:"Colin, what the hell happened to your hand! There's blood everywhere!"

Colin:"I uh..we..uhh...I was showing Micah one of my knives. We had an accident. I'm alright."

Amanda looks at Colin, then looks out the window as Micah walks off
Amanda:"....accident..."
she quietly sighs to her self and uncertainty

Cryonix Mon Feb 07, 2011 3:56 am

Micah sits on the front steps watching the sun go down...

"Just breathe....It'll be ok...eventually....I hope..."
