Amanda shakes her head.

Amanda: No way.....Alex wouldn't get into it with a sick man in a hospital bed.... besides I don't think he could do anything to Shawn if he wanted to, Shawn was like a dad to Alex. It's not feeling like he's done anything though..... it's more like he's holding something in.... probably his temper..... he's been getting increasingly angry all day for some reason..... do you know why that is?

Pockets Tue Mar 29, 2011 11:55 am

Alexis: All the stuff with the church, then what happened with Shawn... and now if he got in it with dad.... Gabriel's not still there?

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 29, 2011 11:59 am

Amanda: I'm sure he's there..... but I hadn't seen him for a while..... guess mum was right..... the boys kinda need to unwind too......

Pockets Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:03 pm

Alexis: I'm sure they do... but how?

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:16 pm

Amanda: Damned if I know.... I have no idea what's going to calm down Alex at this point.

Pockets Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:20 pm

Alexis sighs and digs out her phone.

Alexis: I'm going to at least find out what happened.

Alex's phone starts to ring.

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:33 pm

Alex looks at the caller ID, takes a minute to compose himself and answers.

Alex: Hi honey.

Pockets Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:35 pm

Alexis: Hey... what's going on? Mandy's saying you're ready to kill someone....

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:41 pm

Alex: Oh.... nothing hon..... I'm fine

Pockets Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:43 pm

Alexis sighs.

Alexis: No, you're not. Your voice has an edge to it... I can tell something's up.

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:48 pm

Alex: It's nothing..... just a little disagreement with your dad..... I..... I've just taken enough shit for one day.

Pockets Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:54 pm

Alexis: Mandy was saying.... I wish I could be over there. I miss you.

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:57 pm

Alex sighs.

Alex: I miss you too sweetie.... you have no idea. I love you.

Alexis gets a text from Ashley

Ashley:"You still have my keys and wallet? I can't stay here."

Pockets Tue Mar 29, 2011 2:00 pm

Alexis hears her phone beep and she looks at it, seeing the text. She puts it back to her ear.

Alexis: Um... Alex. I hate to ask, but did you give dad back his stuff?

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 29, 2011 2:05 pm

Alex grits his teeth byt attempts to keep the sweet tone in his voice.

Alex: Fuck.... no.... what with..... everything, I forgot...... I'll go back now.

Amanda is growling.

Pockets Tue Mar 29, 2011 2:07 pm

Alexis stares nervously at Amanda.

Alexis: Look... I'm just doing this so everyone over there can get as far away from each other as possible, ok?

Jabberwocky Tue Mar 29, 2011 2:10 pm

Raquel glances over at Amanda and Alexis, looking a way with a subtle roll of her eyes

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 29, 2011 2:12 pm

Amanda glares at Alexis and mouths the words "I can't help it."

Alex: I.... I'm sorry..... it just slipped my mind..... like I said I'm going back now.

Pockets Tue Mar 29, 2011 2:19 pm

Alexis shrugs helplessly at Amanda, taking a deep breath as she hears Alex, frustrated tears starting to form in her eyes.

Alexis: No... no... maybe just give them to an orderly or something.... I know you've had a long day....

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 29, 2011 2:23 pm

Alex: I'll make sure he gets them.... don't worry I wont do anything..... don't be upset honey...... you go have fun.

Jabberwocky Tue Mar 29, 2011 2:27 pm

Raquel sighs as she looks over at her niece. She mouths "talk to me when we get there."

Meanwhile, Ashley paces in the hallway

Pockets Tue Mar 29, 2011 2:45 pm

Alexis: Alright. I just... I wish people would just sit down and talk... or beat each other up... or whatever just to get all the problems out.

She looks over at Raquel and nods.

Cruel Britannia Tue Mar 29, 2011 2:50 pm

Alex: Lexi please..... don't.... I've been trying to explain this to people all day..... just a sec.

Alex walks in to the hospital and sees Ashley he walks up and hands him his wallet and keys.

..... Lexi gave me these to give back to you..... slipped my mind earlier..... sorry.

Jabberwocky Tue Mar 29, 2011 2:59 pm

Ashley takes the keys and wallet with a simple straight faced nod

Ashley:"Alex I.."

he cuts himself short

Ashley:"Thanks...just thanks"

he turns to head for the exit
