Re: Alexander and Alexis' Apartment

Amanda: For once in your life stop being a whiny little self involved child.....

There is "Peace" .... but that doesn't mean we have to like each other...... us liking each other and playing happy families wasn't part of the deal..... the deal was your dad says his piece then leaves us the hell alone and drops the issue.... he has kept his word and my family have allowed him to be on hand to help move Lexi into her new place.... join us for a nice dinner.... play together without the overt hostility.

YOU are the only person who's wandering around MOPING.... your father knows the score.....I at least respect him for keeping his word and dropping the issue and getting on with his life..... maybe you should try it. Grow up, be a man and live your own life..... maybe then you'll stop neglecting your fiancee.....

Jabberwocky Tue Jul 26, 2011 7:18 pm

Colin:"Heh 'allowed'...no wonder I feel inferior around you all I..."
he pauses at the last thing said
"...I haven't neglected...I...haven't. I've been there for her..."
he goes quiet
"...Right?"

Cruel Britannia Tue Jul 26, 2011 7:30 pm

Amanda: Yes Colin allowed..... not because he, or you are inferior..... but because my family were the VICTIMS of what he did...... I know you think we should all forgive and forget.... and you are entitled to your perspective.... but aren't we entitled to feel wronged by him......?

and I hate to be the one to break it to you.... but no.... you haven't been there for Amber.

Just like Ashley wsn't there for you, Lexi or Moira because of drink..... you haven't been there for Amber because you're drunk on constant self-pity.

When Shawn was in the hospital.... she was there wandering around that hospital alone, surrounded by strangers in a foreign country..... because you were whining to Moira..... At the wedding who was the first person to dance with Amber? ALEX..... because you left her ALONE most of the night.... where is Amber right now Colin? In Texas? ALONE?

Jabberwocky Tue Jul 26, 2011 7:47 pm

Colin:"You don't know what the hell I was doing those times. You assume all I do is crawl into a damn ball and cry about whats going on. Did it ever occur to you that maybe theres more going on. That maybe there was reason that I was talking to Moira at the hospital? That maybe there was reason I was so occupied at the wedding?
Do I feel bad about it? Of course I do! But I also did some pretty stupid things in that time I was "away". Things that have started biting me in the ass. SHE got dragged into it. That is something I didn't want to have happen.
You want to judge me because you think I'm a whiney bitch? Fine whatever suits you. I guess its my fault for not telling you all the whole story. Not that I'm about to.
Oh and Amber isn't here because she got a call from her father, she's flown on ahead to get to know her soon to be step mother a bit and help out while they go away for a bit. I'm catching a flight there later tonight. Just because you don't see us together, just because we aren't constantly swooning at each other like Alexis and Alex, or going at it under the table while people try to eat, doesn't mean we don't spend plenty of time together. There are plenty of times in my life that you don't see me Amanda. I appreciate your concern but...really..."

Cruel Britannia Tue Jul 26, 2011 7:50 pm

Amanda holds up her hands.

Amanda: Whatever you say.

Jabberwocky Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:11 pm

[b]he thinks for a moment and sighs
Colin:"...You might be a little right...As much as I ...hate admitting that..."

Cruel Britannia Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:15 pm

She folds her arms.

Amanda: Uh-huh.... I know you do.

Jabberwocky Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:21 pm

Colin:"...This isn't exactly why I wanted to talk to you..."

Cruel Britannia Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:22 pm

Amanda: So..... why did you?

Jabberwocky Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:28 pm

Colin:"I don't know now. The more I stand here the more it feels like we'd never see eye to eye. At least not on anything substantial"

he speaks the next few words mumbled as he drags his cigarette
"Aside from loving the same person."

he blows smoke

"Don't take this the wrong way, but I've always found you to be sort of a cold hard bitch. And thats nothing to do with my father... But obviously Alexis and Micah don't see it that way and those are two people I care about deeply...I guess I wanted to find what they saw in you. Something that proved me wrong.."

Cruel Britannia Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:34 pm

Amanda: Nope you were right.... I'm a cold hard bitch.

Jabberwocky Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:38 pm

Colin:"Come on, don't do that."

Cruel Britannia Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:42 pm

Amanda sighs.

Amanda: Why shouldn't I? I mean you're always going to think that about me because of my feelings towards your dad..... and how I'm not exactly...... tactful.

Jabberwocky Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:49 pm

Colin:"And so adding fuel to that fire is a mmmmmmuch better idea yeah. Instead of proving that you AREN'T that just go ahead and throw it in my face. A much better idea, I agree."

he flicks his smoke into the street

Colin:"I don't give much of a damn about tact, you know how damn tactful I can be. So no by all means give me all the reason to think you are a bitch. Thats what I wanted all along, naturally.."

Cruel Britannia Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:53 pm

Amanda just shakes her head.

Amanda: God I give up......

She walks back into the restaurant and grabs her coat.

Micah, honey..... I'd probably better go.

Cryonix Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:55 pm

Micah looks a bit confused...

Micah: Wait...what happened? It looked like you two walked off alright...

Pockets Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:55 pm

Nikki looks over.

Nikki: Already?

Moira glances at Ashley, and sighs.

Jabberwocky Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:58 pm

Colin stands there, watching her walk away then for some reason that even he can't explain at first, bursts into an uncontrollable laughter

Inside, Ashley glances over at Moira and simply remorsefully shakes his head and sighs abit himself

Cruel Britannia Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:59 pm

Amanda smiles at Micah.

Amanda: Yes honey.... and I am trying to keep things alright.

Pockets Tue Jul 26, 2011 9:03 pm

Moira: 'Ey... Jilly... can I talk to you for a bit?

Cryonix Tue Jul 26, 2011 9:05 pm

Jillian: Sure hon...what's going on?

Cruel Britannia Tue Jul 26, 2011 9:08 pm

Amanda kisses Micah.

Amanda: I'll see you later sweetie.

She walks out of the restaurant.

Cryonix Tue Jul 26, 2011 9:11 pm

Micah: You sure you don't want me to come with you?

Cruel Britannia Tue Jul 26, 2011 9:13 pm

Amanda: No, no it's fine sweetie.... you have fun.

Jabberwocky Tue Jul 26, 2011 9:14 pm

Colin makes his way in, still laughing. He starts singing I started a Joke in the entrance way

I started to cry, which started the whole world laughing,

He laughs as he walks past Amanda and Micah and even bows to her before walking past

oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me...That the joke was on me.

He stops singing, stops laughing, stops smiling, and looks around at the two

Colin:"What you all looking at? I...Oh! Micah, I'm sorry but I'm going to have to take a rain cheque on that invite out to your place. I'm afraid it would...be a crowd. And I would hate to be a poor guest, you two deserve so much better."

without another word he walks past them and to the table
