Alexis looks at Alex and yawns.

Alexis: Any more traditions today?

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:10 am

Alex smiles.

Alex: Nope.... you're an Edwards now.

.... Unless you count my mum boring you with baby pictures and home movies a tradition.

Pockets Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:11 am

Alexis shakes her head.

Alexis: No, that actually sounds... normal.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:13 am

Alex: Good.... but for now, just relax..... you'll be completely healed in about 45 minutes.

Downstairs, in the family room, Jillian is setting up appetizers, drinks and lots....and lots....

Jillian: No, Gabe I want the first three books on that table. Amanda, stop trying to erase that DVD....Ewan, honey...you could help out a bit...thanks...

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:20 am

Ewan laughs.

Ewan: Alex is going to kill you hon.

Cryonix Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:23 am

Jillian: Look, Alex is my son...my only son...I love him to death...

...it is my right...nay...my DUTY as his mother to embarass the shit out of him with baby pictures when I get the chance...

...you know...to prove how much I care.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:25 am

45 minutes later....

Alex: Ready to get out hon?

Pockets Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:27 am

Alexis is smiling dreamily.

Alexis: No....

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:29 am

Alex smiles.

Alex: I was trying to be gentle honey.... but if you don't get out soon.... this shit is gonna start burning.

After a long while Ashley finally finds his way out the way Jillian had taken him. He stumbles out into the vast parkway of the mansion and looks back at it. He starts to head towards the gate, turning his bad knee on some loose gravel along the way. He gnashes his teeth as the pain shoots through him. He limps for the gate and finally gets to it. Once he's on the other side, off their property his body gives out on him, hitting the gate and sliding down to the grass. He grabs the gate to pull himself into a seated position, holding his knee for a moment before taking out his mobile phone and dialing

now calling...Naomi...

Alexis reluctantly gets out of the bathtub. She stretches, yawns, and grins playfully.

Alexis: So... now what? Baby pictures?

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:36 am

Alex holds out the fluffiest white bathrobe in the world for Alexis.

Alex: Baby pictures.... home movies.... snacks.... I guess you could call it your birthday party.

Pockets Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:39 am

Alexis puts on the bathrobe and almost sinks into its fluffiness.

Alexis: My passing was that big of a deal?

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:44 am

Alex wraps his arms around Alexis.

Alex: Yes.... you're family to them now.... just as much as I am.

...besides it was quite the impressive accomplishment.... just wait and see the tape of what my mum did to you.

Pockets Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:47 am

Alexis leans into Alex's arms.

Alexis: I don't know how I was standing during most of it... I just didn't feel anything. How bad did it look? I remember you telling me to stay down.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:50 am

Alex winces at the memory.

Alex: You have 4 limbs..... they were pointing in 8 different directions. Your right shoulder dislocated 4 times. I'm.... I'm so sorry you had to go through that.

Pockets Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:51 am

Alexis grins up at him.

Alexis: It was worth it.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:53 am

He kisses her.

Alex: Come one.... let's go meet my real family....

Pockets Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:54 am

Alexis chuckles, letting Alex lead her out.

Alexis: Your real family?

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:57 am

Alex: Yeah... The real them.... not the hardasses in robes.

Pockets Fri Feb 25, 2011 1:00 am

Alexis: That will be nice.

She looks almost sad.

Alexis: I finally get to see this amazing family I've heard so much about.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 25, 2011 1:01 am

Alex sighs.

Alex: Yeah... I heard what happened with your dad....

Pockets Fri Feb 25, 2011 1:03 am

Alexis shakes her head.

Alexis: I just don't know what to think....

She grins wryly.

Alexis: I guess I don't have to worry about being an O'Ryan any more though.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 25, 2011 1:06 am

Alex shakes his head.

Alex: My dad must really like you.... I was surprised how.... generous he was with your father.
