Re: Alex and Alexis's Wedding.... Part 1

Shawn: Erin...you know what I mean.

silence...

Shawn: They really grew up like Ewan, didn't they?

[Cruel Britannia]

Erin: Yes..... he gave those kids everything..... they were treated exactly the same as Alex and Mandy..... I can never repay him for all he's done for my sons. Taught them to fight, taught them to shave, helped them with girls, paid for the best education money can buy..... taught them how to be men...... wonderful men. He loves those boys.

[Cryonix]

Shawn: Alright...I get it. They are....your sons. I didn't have a hand in raising them. They are...amazing people, Erin. You should be proud. Listen....if you...don't want me to contact you again, I understand. I don't want to cause you any more pain than I already have.

[Cruel Britannia]

Erin: You still don't get it do you Shawn? Whether you contact me or not..... you will always cause me pain. That's not me guilt tripping you..... that's just how it is.

[Cryonix]

Shawn: No...I know you're not trying to guilt trip me. I just....was trying to make a difficult situation...a little better.

[Cruel Britannia]

Despite trying to hide it Erin can be heard sobbing down the phone.

Erin: There's no making this situation better..... even if you don't contact me..... there's no coming back for me Shawn. All I can do is hope and pray that the end comes quickly.

[Cryonix]

Shawn: Erin....don't talk like that.

[Cruel Britannia]

Erin: That's why I'm here Shawn..... trying to keep me alive long enough to "get better" ..... but there is no getting better..... I'm already dead...... these bastards just wont let me go.

..... tell me one thing Shawn...... What did I do wrong? Was I not supporting enough? loving enough? funny enough? pretty enough? horny enough? Was I not a good enough mother? Was I not a good enough wife? I gave you all of me since the day I met you...... what has SHE given you that I didn't give you in 30 years? Why aren't I good enough?

[Pockets]

Jayden feels arms slip around his waist from behind.

Jessica: There you are! What's wrong, honey?

[Cryonix]

Jayden: ...my dad. He's talking to my mom right now....probably hurting her more...

[Pockets]

Jessica sighs.

Jessica: For him not wanting to be with her... your father can't seem to let your mother alone, can he?

[Cryonix]

Jayden: Yeah, I know. I just want my mom to get better...but she won't...and he isn't helping. I just...God, I hate the fact that he's my father.

[Pockets]

Jessica hugs Jayden.

Jessica: I think I would like to meet your mum. She's the only one in your family I haven't met.

[Jabberwocky]

Ashley: Ladies and Gentlemen I’d like to introduce you to the father o’the bride
If you saw that in print it’d ‘ave an asterex by it’s side
See when you were a wee on I would ‘ave never won father o’the year
You don’t even get nominated if yer not there to wipe those lil tears
Or to get up at three am to battle the closet monsters that you fear

While you were a baby crying I all but left you to yer own
Missed all yer bottle feedings cause I was too busy nursing one o’ my own
Shoulda been a better daddy instead I was never ‘ome
Missed the diapers burping toilet training scraped knees
you struggling on yer ‘omework saying “daddy would you ‘elp me”

Wasn’t there to put enough fear into yer date to make sure you got home at midnight at yer prom
Wasn’t there to listen to you bawl about how you and so-and-so don’t get along

My darling Alexis, apple of me eye, I’m so glad that you grew up to be very little loik I
I’m ‘appy to say you ‘ave yer grandmothers nose, I wish you could ‘ave met ‘er she’d ‘ave loved to watch you grow

Alex wot you mean to this family I’m not sure you even know. I know you’ll keep ‘er ‘appy, I can see it in the way she glows.
So I’d like to end this rhyme with the love o’ a father as you now walk as one
And say good ‘ealth to both o’ you
The day I gained a daughter and a son

Ashley looks at Alex and Alexis
Ashley:"Sláinte, I love you both."


Meanwhile, from a distance Raquel watches Shawn. She glances over at Jayden with a sigh. She talks to herself
Raquel:"Oh Shawn..why couldn't they have just one good memory of you..."

[Pockets]

Alexis stares after her father, then looks over at Colin.

Alexis: You said you were joking....

[Jabberwocky]

Colin raises a brow
Colin:"About 'im actually doing that? Nope I believe you are mistaken and I also believe that just happened."
theres actually a sense of pride in Colin's eyes as he looks over at his father with a smile then turns back to Alexis
Colin:"The dad that I told you about so many times, he's standing right over there."

[Cruel Britannia]

Ewan and Alex stand and give Ashley a round of appluse.

[Pockets]

Alexis looks back over at her father. A smile grows across her face.

Alexis: He actually made a rap... about me?

She joins her husband and father-in-law in their standing ovation.

[Cryonix]

Gabe: ...this is so going on youtube....

[Pockets]

Nikki: Gotta admit, that guy has balls.

[Cryonix]

Gabe: Nikki, hon...I love you...but the last thing I want to think about is Ashley O'Ryan's balls....

Shawn: There is nothing you did wrong Erin. Nothing. I just....I messed up. I never realized it until this situation came about. Why do you think I'm so apologetic....even though I ....can't apologize? It's me...it's always been me...and...Erin I hate myself for it.

[Cruel Britannia]

Amanda glares at Gabe.

Amanda: Great..... now I'm never getting rid of that image.

Erin: ...... Shawn..... It's OK..... it isn't your fault you love her more than me. You have nothing to apologise for.

[Pockets]

Nikki makes a disgusted face.

Nikki: Not his actual balls! Eww, no....

[Cryonix]

Gabe smirks at both women...

Gabe: So...neither of you are thinking of the 'Tigger song' right now, are you?

[Pockets]

Nikki glares at Gabe.

Nikki: Not until you said that, you arse!
