Alexis' smirk grows wider and she tries to put on Alex's Hertfordshire accent.

Alexis: Not quite as sexy as... what would you call it, an English-American accent?

Cruel Britannia Thu May 19, 2011 8:35 pm

Alex laughs.

Alex: Your English accent is getting better.

Pockets Thu May 19, 2011 8:37 pm

Alexis laughs a little self consciously.

Alexis: You would think, growing up around my mom, that I would pick it up easier.

Cruel Britannia Thu May 19, 2011 8:43 pm

Alex: It's a very different accent sweetie. Hell your mother's accent comes with it's own language.

Pockets Thu May 19, 2011 8:44 pm

Alexis: I know... I always knew I was in trouble when I couldn't understand a word she said.

Cruel Britannia Thu May 19, 2011 8:48 pm

Alex laughs.

Alex: Shame you didn't know me back then.... I could have translated so you knew exactly how much trouble you were in.

Pockets Thu May 19, 2011 8:49 pm

Alexis: You know Cockney?

Cruel Britannia Thu May 19, 2011 8:52 pm

Alex: Yeah.... Hertfordshire's not that far from that part of London.... plus my mum and dad were both fluent.... so I just kinda picked it up.

Pockets Thu May 19, 2011 8:55 pm

Alexis: Well, if mom ever calls up again, all upset... I'll have you translate....

She remembers something and suddenly looks upset.

Alexis: I can't believe I forgot... Colin.... I wonder if they have anything yet.

Cruel Britannia Thu May 19, 2011 8:58 pm

Alex sighs.

Alex: Sorry sweetie.... I was trying to keep you distracted since we're fairly useless at the moment. Your mum promised to call if she had anything new..... but we can call her if you want.

Pockets Thu May 19, 2011 9:00 pm

Alexis shakes her head.

Alexis: No... no... you're right.

Cruel Britannia Thu May 19, 2011 9:05 pm

He pulls her into a tight hug.

Alex: You sure sweetie? If there anything you think I can do to help..... anythng..... I'll do it.

Pockets Thu May 19, 2011 9:09 pm

Alexis sighs.

Alexis: Short of finding Colin... we do need to finish the groceries....

Cruel Britannia Thu May 19, 2011 9:17 pm

Alex nods, but is clearly not pleased by the fact that he can't do what Lexi really wants.

Alex: OK..... so what's left?

Pockets Thu May 19, 2011 9:27 pm

Alexis: We got the fruit... the meat... the coke... what else did we have?

Cruel Britannia Thu May 19, 2011 9:29 pm

Alex: I think that just leaves the vegetable and the dairy.

Pockets Thu May 19, 2011 9:39 pm

Alexis walks back over to the kitchen.

Alexis: Well, come on then.

Cruel Britannia Thu May 19, 2011 9:44 pm

Alex follows Lexi back over to the kitchen and makes quick work of the task of putting away the milk and cheese.

Pockets Thu May 19, 2011 9:49 pm

Alexis: What is the hurry all of a sudden? All we have to do is wait....

Cruel Britannia Sat May 21, 2011 12:04 pm

Alex smiles warmly.

Alex: There's only so much I can do to stretch out putting away milk and cheese my love. Although..... for you..... I'll try.

He takes the vegetables from Alexis and stars putting them away in super slow motion.

Pockets Sat May 21, 2011 1:34 pm

Alexis laughs, taking back the vegetables.

Alexis: You don't have to do that.

Cruel Britannia Sat May 21, 2011 5:06 pm

Alex lunges towards Lexi still in slow motion.

Alex: Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Pockets Sat May 21, 2011 5:19 pm

Alexis moves out of the way, giggling.

Cruel Britannia Sat May 21, 2011 5:27 pm

Alex, still in slow motion, dramatically falls to the floor when Alexis "dodges"

Alex: Owwwwwwwww.

Pockets Sat May 21, 2011 5:44 pm

Alexis looks at him, straight faced.

Alexis: Watch your head....
