Alex: Awww.... hey.... maybe.... if you're a good boy.... mommy will show you a little tai-chi.....

Pockets Fri Feb 10, 2012 8:21 pm

Nicholas turns and stares at his mother.

Alexis: Only if you're good.

Nicholas almost leans out of Nikki's arms to give his brother a kiss on the cheek. Connor wants none of it and starts fussing. Nicholas looks innocently up at Alexis, who laughs.

Alex smirks.

Alex: Heh.... I wonder if I was that keen.

Cryonix Fri Feb 10, 2012 8:41 pm

Gabe: Yeah, you were. You'd do nothing but hang on to Aunt Nathalie...

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 10, 2012 8:48 pm

Alex: Ahem...... careful Gabe.... I think Nikki might be starting to like my son better than you.....

Cryonix Fri Feb 10, 2012 8:51 pm

Gabe: I'm always the one being left out...

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 10, 2012 8:55 pm

Alex: So.... you wanna tell me why you held back in there?

Cryonix Fri Feb 10, 2012 8:58 pm

Gabe grabs a Gatorade bottle and slumps on the bench...

Gabe: I've never frozen before. I....I don't know what happened.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 10, 2012 9:02 pm

Alex sits next to him.

Alex: You thought about Shawn didn't you? Going for one of his moves doesn't make you him you know..... it was the right move to use in the situation.

Cryonix Fri Feb 10, 2012 9:05 pm

Gabe: I can't help it. Ever since Mandy and Ashley had that argument about me at the hospital....that shit's been eating at me. I don't know why. I guess with mom getting remarried, I've just had to face it.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 10, 2012 9:06 pm

Alex: So talk to me about it.... what's worrying you?

Cryonix Fri Feb 10, 2012 9:07 pm

Gabe: I don't know why people would think I'm....doing this as a mask or a facade. Am I not...me?

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 10, 2012 9:10 pm

Alex: You think.... maybe dad.... gave you your position to make you less like your father?

Cryonix Fri Feb 10, 2012 9:16 pm

Gabe: I know he did. I don't know why this is bothering me.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 10, 2012 9:23 pm

Alex: You're wrong...... I know dad has never told you that much about your role as protector..... you know why that is? Because you were the first..... you created this role for yourself.....dad just made it official because you were so good at it......Gabe..... at your core.... you are more Edwards than any of us..... even me......

Ashley O'Ryan doesn't know his ass from his elbow..... he doesn't know you...... and he doesn't know Aunt Erin.... from what dad tells me.... you're exactly like your mum was when she was your age..... that's how he knew he could trust you.

Yeah.... you like doing some crazy shit..... and you have a goofy sense of humour.... but you would never.... ever let your family down..... that is the one thing I've been certain of my entire life.

Pockets Fri Feb 10, 2012 9:26 pm

Alexis watches the conversation in silence.

Cryonix Fri Feb 10, 2012 9:43 pm

Gabe: No...I would never let that happen.

Cruel Britannia Fri Feb 10, 2012 9:47 pm

Alex: Gabe.... we are your family and we love you..... be who you want to be with us..... as much of a pain in the ass as you can be.... heh..... we wouldn't have you any other way.

Cryonix Mon Feb 20, 2012 5:49 am

Gabe smiles...

Gabe: I know. It's just....the fight is on my mind, Mom coming out to see me fight for the first time in....forever, me being able to tell her Nikki is pregnant with.......heh.......my child.....the stuff with Ashley and Dad.....it's just been weighing on me for....a while now. Like, I've not been able to focus right. I'm sure Unc will kick my ass for saying that, but...

Pockets Mon Feb 20, 2012 10:34 am

Nikki looks a bit frazzled.

Nikki: This baby stuff is hard! How do you guys manage?

Alexis chuckles.

Alexis: Don't forget you'll have Gabe's help. With all the help he's giving us, he's sure to be even more into things with his own child. There's a whole family that will drop everything for a chance at baby help. And don't forget you're dealing with four here. You've got a mommy advantage that hasn't been seen in the Edwards side of the family in over a generation. You're carrying only one.

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 20, 2012 10:38 am

Alex smiles.

Alex: Then don't focus....have fun with it..... like we used to back in the dungeon.

Cryonix Mon Feb 20, 2012 2:12 pm

Gabe nods....

Gabe: Yeah...fuck it. It'll be there when I'm done training anyway. Come on...let's go. Bet you I can still go longer than you in Wild Rope Training.

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 21, 2012 3:35 am

Alex: ....isn't that how yo got Nikki knocked up?

Cryonix Tue Feb 21, 2012 3:36 am

Gabe: No...no rope involved. Just....a tent, the stars in Africa....and no one around for miles.

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 21, 2012 3:50 am

Alex: Very nice.....hope you got enough action to hold you over for a while.
