Alexis doesn't let go, burying herself in his arms for a long moment, then looking up at him.

Alexis: How did the talk go?

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 28, 2011 10:32 pm

Alex looks deeply sad.... but is still attempting to hold it in.

Alex: I.... I wanted to forgive him.....I really did.... everything he said made sense technically.... I suppose..... I just couldn't understand it....

.... I couldn't bring myself to do it.... to forgive him....

He looks over at the sedated Erin.

....Knowing that he brought her to this...... She loves him so much....

Pockets Mon Feb 28, 2011 10:42 pm

Alexis hugs Alex more tightly.

Alexis: The doctors said there is nothing we could do... she needs therapy... and at least for now needs to be kept medicated... for her own safety....

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 28, 2011 10:48 pm

Alex shuts his eyes tightly. Once again trying to force tears back into his head. He opens his eyes and sighs.

Alex: I'm sorry you had to deal with this.

Pockets Mon Feb 28, 2011 10:52 pm

Alexis brings Alex's head down to her shoulder, stroking his hair and comforting him.

Alexis: I'm more worried about you.

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 28, 2011 11:09 pm

Alex hides in Alexis' shoulder as he lets a couple of tears start to fall. He whispers to her.

Alex: I'm sorry.

Pockets Mon Feb 28, 2011 11:14 pm

Alexis whispers back.

Alexis: You don't need to apologize. It's alright....

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 28, 2011 11:21 pm

Alex: Thankyou.

Without moving his head he puts a light kiss on Alexis collarbone.

....you're going to be very good at this whole wife thing.

Pockets Mon Feb 28, 2011 11:28 pm

Alexis smiles slightly.

Alexis: With you as the husband this whole wife thing just comes naturally....

Meanwhile, in room 327 of the Greenwich Hilton...
Raquel stares out her hotel window. It has started to rain, making her think of Shawn. She looks at her phone and then back out the window.
The sudden ringing makes her jump a little. She answers without pausing."

Raquel:"Shawn?"

Ashley:"No, its Ash. Shawn asked I keep an eye out on you. Where are you?"

Raquel:"Standing in some damn hotel room, wondering if he is alright."

Ashley:"'otel?...Raquel where the 'ell are you?"

Raquel:"London. Shawn went to try to talk to Ewan. Erin took things pretty badly."

[b]Ashley lets out a sigh, thinking how well things went when he went to the Edwards estate.

Ashley:"Stay safe Raquel."

Raquel:"...Yeah...I'll try to."

the call disconnects as Raquel looks out the window again, cursing under her breath. Years ago she would have defiantly gone to try to solve things herself. But she knew she couldn't. She would make things worse. At least...that was the fear

She flips open her phone and sends a text to Alexis, its simple

Raquel:"hey."

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 28, 2011 11:51 pm

Alex feels a vibration in an awkward place.

Alex: Um... honey.... I think that's your phone.

Pockets Mon Feb 28, 2011 11:54 pm

Alexis feels the vibration in her pocket and sighs, reaching for her phone. She winces when she realizes who it's from.

don't show your face around here... Erin is in the hospital, suicidal. the family blames Shawn being with you

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 28, 2011 11:56 pm

Raquel:"Tell me you are joking Alexis."

Pockets Tue Mar 01, 2011 9:06 am

no. i heard you came here. you shouldnt have.

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 01, 2011 9:39 am

Alex: Judging from the expression on your face.... that's Raquel?

Pockets Tue Mar 01, 2011 9:54 am

Alexis nods.

Alexis: She is still my aunt, my family.

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 01, 2011 10:10 am

Alex smiles at Alexis and shakes his head.

Alex: I know love.... don't worry... we wont hurt her.

Pockets Tue Mar 01, 2011 10:28 am

She looks at the still Erin.

Alexis: It's not her fault...

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 01, 2011 10:37 am

Alex sighs.

Alex: I know.

Pockets Tue Mar 01, 2011 10:42 am

Alexis takes a deep breath.

Alexis: I... I need to get some air....

She walks out of the room.

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 01, 2011 10:47 am

Alex follows her out.

Alex: Lexi... please.... just talk to me...... you can tell me what ever it is you're thinking.... you know that.

Pockets Tue Mar 01, 2011 10:49 am

Alexis turns around.

Alexis: It's your aunt in there... you shouldn't be worried about me right now.

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 01, 2011 10:53 am

Alex: She's sedated. There's nothing I can do for her right now.... maybe there is something I can do for you.

Pockets Tue Mar 01, 2011 10:58 am

Alexis chuckles, but there is no humor in it.

Alexis: Only if you can make it not my family that winds up in the middle of all your family's problems....

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 01, 2011 11:09 am

Alex: I see... well.... no I can't help that.... I wish I could.
