Alex gives her a peck on the cheek.

Alex: I'm sure it wasn't you.

Pockets Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:01 pm

Alexis doesn't look at all reassured.

Alexis: Then why would she get upset after I said who my parents were? Did dad do something to her too?

Cryonix Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:05 pm

Jillian: No, Lexi. I know my sister...and those names would have gotten her angry....not sad. What you said didn't hurt her...

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:06 pm

Alex: Let me find out.

Alex follows Nathalie.

Alex: ...hey.... what is it?

Pockets Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:09 pm

Alexis is still embarrassed, but she straightens back up on the couch.

Alexis: The same reason as everyone else...?

Cryonix Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:14 pm

Nathalie: I'm....I'm sorry Alex, I just....it's not anything Alexis did...please tell her that....

....I just....I don't know if I can do this again...

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:16 pm

He puts his arm around her.

Alex: Do what?

Cryonix Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:23 pm

It comes out in a whisper...

Nathie: I'll.....support you and Lexi, Alex....I swear....it's just...

...sitting through another wedding that's not my own....and for Christ's sake....with Moira's daughter?!?!?

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:28 pm

Alex laughs.

Alex: Well.... if it makes you feel any better Lexi doesn't exactly see eye to eye with her mother either.

Cryonix Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:33 pm

Nathie: It's not...rational, I know...but I just can't be in there right now. Jilly's happy, you're happy, Erin is....she has children...

...I just....eugh God, I just can't.

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:37 pm

Alex sighs.

Alex: I'm afraid I can't offer any male insight on the matter.... I can even begin to fathom how you're not married.

Cryonix Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:41 pm

Nathie: Always a charmer, you. I'm...it's alright Alex. You should go back to your fiancee....

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:44 pm

Alex: Is that what you want? Because I'm more than happy to sit here as long as you need.

Cryonix Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:46 pm

Nathie: I will not be accused of stealing another woman's man....be it time or other things like it was with Jilly. No...I won't deny you...what I've yet to find. Go on, enjoy your youth....be happy for both of us.

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:49 pm

Alex sighs.

Alex: OK.... let me know if you change your mind.

Alex kisses her on the cheek and rejoins the rest of the family.

Pockets Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:51 pm

Alexis stands up when Alex walks back in.

Alexis: Everything alright?

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:59 pm

Alex: She's pretty upset.... it's nothing that you said or did my love..... She's just dealing with... her own stuff right now.

Pockets Mon Feb 28, 2011 10:18 am

Alexis sits back down, looking uncertain.

Alexis: Ah....

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 28, 2011 10:26 am

Seeing Alexis is still not sure Alex sits next to her and wraps his arms around her.

Alex: Nothing to did.... and nothing to do with who your father is. I promise.

He kisses the tip of her nose.

Pockets Mon Feb 28, 2011 10:37 am

Alexis grins slightly, the grin grows as she tells her news.

Alexis: Oh, I was right. Amanda and Micah are getting married!

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 28, 2011 10:39 am

Alex smiles.

Alex: I suspected. I imagine she asked you to be her Maid of Honor?

Pockets Mon Feb 28, 2011 10:41 am

Alexis nods.

Alexis: She beat me to it.

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 28, 2011 10:44 am

Alex laughs.

Alex: Yeah.... she's always been quick on the draw. But there's no-one else she ever would have asked. I mean you were her best friend.... now you're her sister. She wouldn't have even had to think about the decision.

Pockets Mon Feb 28, 2011 10:48 am

Alexis laughs as well.

Alexis: Well, it wasn't exactly a hard decision for me either... for the same reasons. It was supposed to be part of the reason for the girl talk anyway.

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 28, 2011 10:59 am

Alex grins.

Alex: I'm glad you two have always gotten along well. I still need to find a best man though.... It's tough.... I mean... My best friend is the Bride.
