Walking down from his mother's room is Jayden. He looks worn out. He walks to the waiting area when he sees Alex and Alexis. He closes his eyes, clenches his fists and sighs deeply. As he exhales, he approaches them...

Jayden: Alex....Alexis.....

Cruel Britannia Thu Mar 03, 2011 7:31 am

Alex looks at Jayden sympathetically.

Alex: Hey Jay.... how you holding up bro?

Pockets Thu Mar 03, 2011 7:37 am

Alexis looks at Jayden a little shyly.

Alexis: Hello... what's that you're holding?

Cryonix Thu Mar 03, 2011 7:39 am

Jayden: I'm...I don't know man. I mean...this whole thing with mom...

Jayden sees Alexis notice the certificate...

Jayden: Oh....this...Yeah. I got accepted. I'm offically a Rhodes Scholar...

Cruel Britannia Thu Mar 03, 2011 7:45 am

Alex smiles at Jayden.

Alex: Congrats man.... you deserve it.

He looks at Alexis.

.... yeah..... Jay got all the brain-cells in the Edwards gene pool. Certified genius.

He looks back to Jayden.

Alex: I don't know what to say man. I'm sorry about your mum..... if you need anything we're here.

Cryonix Thu Mar 03, 2011 7:50 am

Jayden: It's...part of a life's work, that's for sure. I just...I'm going to have to reschedule my trip to Washington D.C. They uh...

He blushes...

Jayden: They want me to....because of my test scores...test for Mensa...and I have a 'Future Political Leaders' meeeting there as well. I just don't think I can...leave her now...and with Gabe's big title fight coming up...

...you guys are going, right?

Pockets Thu Mar 03, 2011 7:54 am

Alexis: He did mention that, I don't see why not.

She glances at Alex.

Cruel Britannia Thu Mar 03, 2011 8:02 am

Alex: Course we'll be there.... actually he's asked me to join you in his corner.....

He looks to Alexis.

Alex: Wanna come with? You might be able to help him with his sloppy-ass striking.

Pockets Thu Mar 03, 2011 8:08 am

Alexis nods, interested

Alexis: Yeah, maybe I could teach him something.

Cryonix Thu Mar 03, 2011 8:11 am

Jayden: Heh...What Gabe lacks in striking he makes up for in trash talk. Alex...you remember that light heavyweight fight against Faber? When he was like dancing around the cage and hitting on women....

...wait! Remember...he was in the armbar against the cage...and pulled a damn phone number from a ring girl...You were his corner man for that fight too, right?

Cruel Britannia Thu Mar 03, 2011 8:16 am

Alex: Yeah.... he always seems to dick around a little harder when I'm around... damn showoff.

Cryonix Thu Mar 03, 2011 8:19 am

Alex's text message chime goes off. It's Gabriel...

"Heya. I just got the call from Team Punishment and they want me back in Minnesota to finish my fight training for Cain. I'm on my way to the hospital now, before I head to the airport...Any change?"

Cruel Britannia Thu Mar 03, 2011 8:24 am

Alex responds.

"She seems a little calmer now.... but it's still not good.

Pockets Thu Mar 03, 2011 2:10 pm

Alexis looks at Alex and tries to read what he's texting.

Alexis: Who are you talking to?

Cruel Britannia Thu Mar 03, 2011 2:14 pm

Alex smiles at her attemps to read his text.

Alex: Gabe. Tito's called him back to Minnesota. He's stopping by to see his mum before he leaves.

Pockets Thu Mar 03, 2011 2:17 pm

Alexis nods.

Alexis: We should wait for him then.

Cruel Britannia Thu Mar 03, 2011 2:20 pm

Alex puts on a playful stern face.

Alex: Keen to see him eh? Should I be concerned?

Pockets Thu Mar 03, 2011 2:24 pm

Alexis rolls her eyes.

Alexis: Oh yes... so much....

She chuckles.

Alexis: Seriously though, if he's going to be leaving right from here shouldn't we at least say good bye and not disappear on him?

Cruel Britannia Thu Mar 03, 2011 2:27 pm

Alex chuckles and gives Alexis a quick peck.

Alex: Aww.... my baby is so polite.

Pockets Thu Mar 03, 2011 2:28 pm

Alexis grins.

Alexis: Would you rather I not be?

Cruel Britannia Thu Mar 03, 2011 2:32 pm

Alex grins

Alex: Oh you're not always polite.... you know exactly how to be mean to me don't you.....?

He leans in and whispers in her ear.

..... Al..... ex.... is

Pockets Thu Mar 03, 2011 2:37 pm

Alexis flushes and involuntarily leans into him. She quickly collects herself and gives Alex and incredulous look.

Alexis: You are not doing that here!

Cruel Britannia Thu Mar 03, 2011 2:41 pm

Alex looks innocent.

Alex: Doing what? That's your name isn't it?

Pockets Thu Mar 03, 2011 2:43 pm

Alexis smirks.

Alexis: Yes... but why whisper it to me like that? My name is no secret.

Cruel Britannia Thu Mar 03, 2011 2:48 pm

He places his hands on her waist. Smirking.

Alex: So you prefer it when I say your name loudly....

He makes a point of flicking his tongue out on the L
