Alex smiles as they walk into whole foods to pick up picnic supplies.

Alex: I wouldn't go so far as to say stalking. My dad was sharing a hospital room in Japan with Shawn and they flicked on the TV and they were showing some SHIMMER repeats. Then this young girl comes on screen.... she got some stupid pirate gimmick.... anyway..... in the middle of the show she drops the gimmick, cuts a shoot promo and walks out. My dad's heart stopped.... he literally flatlined..... he knew he had to meet her..... and as a stroke of luck the FWA hired him at the same time they hired her....

Pockets Sun Apr 17, 2011 2:48 pm

Alexis: And the rest was history? What happened that they were sharing a hospital room anyway?

Cruel Britannia Sun Apr 17, 2011 2:58 pm

He laughs.

Alex: Well.... you say the rest was history...... that history includes three years where he was her best friend because he never told her how he felt.

....oh.... and they were sharing a room because they kicked the crap out of each other because Shawn was hitting on Aunt Erin during a match.

Pockets Sun Apr 17, 2011 3:10 pm

Alexis grins.

Alexis: Why does that sound slightly familiar....

She chuckles.

Alexis: Ironic....

Cruel Britannia Sun Apr 17, 2011 3:19 pm

He smiles.

Alex: So I was your best friend huh?

.....yup.... but Shawn and my dad eventually became friends.... then best friends.... then brothers

Pockets Sun Apr 17, 2011 3:21 pm

Alexis: Other than your sister, yeah. You still are.

Cruel Britannia Sun Apr 17, 2011 3:29 pm

Alex laughs.

Alex: Well then it seems I was doing something right before we started dating....

Pockets Sun Apr 17, 2011 3:34 pm

Alexis smiles.

Alexis: Never said you didn't.

Cruel Britannia Sun Apr 17, 2011 3:49 pm

Alex smiles and pays at the counter as the two continue to walk to the park.

Alex: I know..... I'm glad I was able to be a good friend for you.

Pockets Sun Apr 17, 2011 5:22 pm

Alexis: I hope I was able to be as good of a friend to you.

Cruel Britannia Sun Apr 17, 2011 5:27 pm

He smiles.

Alex: You were.... although..... that was one blessing it wasn't always easy for me to appreciate.

Pockets Sun Apr 17, 2011 5:31 pm

Alexis looks at Alex curiously.

Alexis: Why is that?

Cruel Britannia Sun Apr 17, 2011 5:47 pm

Alex smiles again

Alex:..... have you ever heard of a Greek myth called "The Torment of Tantalus"?

When Tantalus was sent to the underworld his eternal torture was to stand in a pool of water witha tree bearing beautiful ripe fruit growing just above his head.... and every time he reached for a piece of ruit, the branches would pull away from him and every time he'd bend down to drink from the pool, the water would recede.

Do you see what I'm saying?

I loved being close to you.... but at the same time..... it was hard not being close enough.

Pockets Sun Apr 17, 2011 6:03 pm

Alexis smiles.

Alexis: I knew something was missing with us, but I was dating Micah and I didn't think you were interested anyway... just that you were the perfect gentleman.

Cruel Britannia Sun Apr 17, 2011 6:16 pm

He takes her hand.

Alex: Just treating you the way you deserve to be treated sweetie.

They find a spot in the park down by a stream.

Pockets Sun Apr 17, 2011 6:47 pm

Alexis grins.

Alexis: It must be by water....

Cruel Britannia Sun Apr 17, 2011 6:59 pm

Alex grins back.

Alex: This is quite a streak we've got going.

He removes his shirt and lays it on the ground for Lexi to sit on.

Pockets Sun Apr 17, 2011 7:17 pm

Alexis: It's us.... Oh, I don't want to mess up your shirt... we should've grabbed a blanket or something.

Cruel Britannia Sun Apr 17, 2011 7:21 pm

Alex smiles.

Alex: It's OK hon, I didn't pay for the shirt and I have like 10 more of the exact same shirt in storage..... besides..... being sat on by you?..... that's gonna be one happy shirt.....

Pockets Sun Apr 17, 2011 7:30 pm

Alexis: I'll just try not to think of it as your mom's face on there...

She smirks.

Alexis: Should I take off my shirt for you to sit on?

Cruel Britannia Sun Apr 17, 2011 7:42 pm

Alex laughs.

Alex: As counterintuitive as it is for me to tell you to keep your shirt on..... I don't want to have to start knocking guys..... and probably girls too out for staring at my Lexi.

.....besides, the sun is kinda bright today and you have an Irish complexion.

He pulls a bottle of sunblock from his back pocket and starts rubbing some on Lexi's arms.

Pockets Sun Apr 17, 2011 7:46 pm

Alexis: You think of everything, don't you?

Cruel Britannia Sun Apr 17, 2011 7:57 pm

Alex gets up close to Lexi's as he applies lotion to her neck and face.

Alex: What can I say.... I spend a great deal of time thinking about your skin sweetie.

He gives her a quick peck before putting the lotion down and laying on the ground.

Pockets Sun Apr 17, 2011 9:11 pm

Alexis smirks.

Alexis: It's not my skin you're thinking about....

She picks up the bottle.

Alexis: You might have tough English skin... doesn't mean it doesn't need to be protected.

Cruel Britannia Sun Apr 17, 2011 9:17 pm

Alex laughs.

Alex: It's not the English skin that's tough sweetie.... I'm quarter Brazillian....

..... but if you're offering to apply it for me I certainly wont say no.
