Alex smirks.

Alex: Hey Gabe.... did dad tell you how his hand got crushed and his shoulder dislocated?

Cryonix Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:11 pm

Gabe: He might have mentioned that...he pissed off an Edwards.

Gabe smirks at Alex...

Gabe: So...everyday you grow just like your old man, huh? Hey...by the way...where's that sexy ass sister of yours?

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:13 pm

Alex: Uh.... Gabe.... you do realise Mandy's your cousin right?

..... and she's probably somewhere with her legs wrapped around her boyfriend's mighty torso.

Cryonix Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:16 pm

Gabe: Details...I mean you've heard the term 'kissin' cousins' right? This would be just like that...with groin areas.

Wait...what do you mean 'boyfriend'?

He looks to Alexis...

Gabe: Hey Alexis...do you know this cat?

Pockets Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:17 pm

Alexis is still eyeing Gabriel.

Alexis: Yeah, I used to date him, actually.

Cryonix Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:19 pm

As soon as Alexis says that, Gabe playfully punches Alex in the shoulder...

Gabe: YOU FUCKIN' NINJA YOU! You swiped her, didn't you? THAT'S MY COUSIN! I knew you'd do it eventually...

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:23 pm

Alex: I wouldn't quite put it that way.... the dude kissed me..... he let Lexi choose between us.... she chose me for some reason..... I set him up with my sister.... there was this damn party in Seattle.......

..... It's a whole complicated...... thing.....

but bottom line.... I'm with the girl of my dreams.... we're getting married May 21st..... eugh and now because of me she has to do the damn initiation....

Cryonix Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:25 pm

Gabe listens to the story intently, nodding his head at certain moments. At the end...

Gabe: Aren't you forgetting the whole, "I've been pinning after you for like eight months while you lived in my place...and would basically train like a bastard everyday to keep from breaking into your room and fucking the shit out of you, despite your boyfriend?"

...Yeah...Mandy might have mentioned...something....

Pockets Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:27 pm

Alexis looks at Alex, a grin threatening to grow on her face.

Alexis: Oh, really?

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:30 pm

Alex clears his throat.

Alex: Well.... I knew Mandy couldn't keep her legs shut.... guess that holds true for the mouth too....

Alex looks sheepishly at Alexis.

Yeah.... I uh..... may have made a few midnight Icebox runs.....

Cryonix Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:32 pm

Gabe: A few...? Dad told me you were there everynight for 4 hours for like...6 months...

Pockets Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:33 pm

Alexis does grin now.

Alexis: Did you have a particular motive in agreeing so quickly to let me move in?

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:47 pm

Alex: well.... um..... I thought it would be... nice to have you around

Pockets Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:50 pm

Alexis chuckles.

Alexis: A little too nice I take it.

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:52 pm

Alex can't help but laugh at his own embarrassment at this point.

Alex: You have no idea....

Cryonix Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:53 pm

Gabe: Yeah...nice. He probably couldn't even stutter out the "Come stay with me" right, could he? He was always nervous around pretty girls...just like his old man.

He looks at his watch...

Gabe: Come on, lets get in the house...I'm fuckin' starving...

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:59 pm

Alex: Always eating.... you know that's why I botched that C4.... I couldn't lift your fat ass....

Cryonix Wed Feb 23, 2011 11:36 pm

Gabe: Fat? Dude...don't be jealous that I developed a shit load of muscle before you did.

He looks at Alexis...

Gabe: So, I'm going to steal her away for about an hour...You need to go talk to your dad. Oh, don't give me that look...I'm not a ninja like you...

...well, not in this case at least. I just want to get to know my cousin's fiancee. That's all. Come on, Alexis...over here on the stairs.

Cruel Britannia Wed Feb 23, 2011 11:52 pm

He looks to Alexis.

Alex: You OK with that?

Pockets Wed Feb 23, 2011 11:53 pm

Alexis shrugs.

Alexis: If nothing else I get to see what his deal is.

Cruel Britannia Wed Feb 23, 2011 11:58 pm

He kisses her.

Alex: Don't worry about it.... he's a good guy..... just doesn't have any sort of filter between his brain and his mouth, that's all. Have fun.

He looks to Gabriel.

Alex: Behave yourself for once.

Alex goes to join his father in the dungeon.

Cryonix Thu Feb 24, 2011 12:01 am

Gabriel smiles looking back at Alex...

Gabe: When do I ever behave myself? Smile

They watch him go...and Alexis and Gabe actually have a long...and rather meaningful conversation sitting on the stairs of the Edwards' estate. After about an hour and a half or so...they see Alex coming back from seeing his dad...

Gabe: There he is. How's the old man?

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 24, 2011 12:04 am

Alex: He's.... OK..... just getting things ready.... so......

He looks nervously between the two.

.....did you guys have a nice chat?

Cryonix Thu Feb 24, 2011 12:07 am

Gabe: What the hell is with the worried look, Alex? Dude...she's great....

...though you should have sent me a video of this...'Four Days in Seattle' marathon I'm hearing about from her and Mandy...You old stud you. I knew you were paying attention when Dad and I would talk.

Pockets Thu Feb 24, 2011 12:09 am

Alexis rolls her eyes.

Alexis: The worst he did was sniff me... which was weird....

She smirks.

Alexis: For a Cortez he seems alright though.
