Connor:"An issue? I uh...naw, you just caught me off guard is all..."

Cryonix Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:02 pm

Nicholas: I don't know. I've always felt....eager...for some reason, dad. I'm not sure why. I just....

...I want to make you proud, dad. I just...go about it the wrong way.

Pockets Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:05 pm

Nikki: Almost looked like you were falling asleep up there.

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:08 pm

Alex: Let me tell you something.... you don't need to do anything to make me proud son..... I was proud of you ever since the first time I held you in my arms.... hell I was proud of you the first time I felt you moving around inside your mother's stomach..... you are my son and I will always be proud of you..... that is why I will not tolerate you doing things like you did tonight...... because you deserve more than that.

..... now.... come on and give your old man a hug.....

Cryonix Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:10 pm

Nicholas smiles and gives his dad a hug, when...

Gabe: Well, isn't that special? Two powerful men...hugging each other on a white sofa while Alexis watches.....pervs.

Pockets Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:12 pm

Alexis: Connor must have left the door open. I'll have to have a talk with him. Who knows what he'll let in.

She makes a wry face at Gabe.

Jabberwocky Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:13 pm

Connor:"Me? Nah...I guess running on a treadmill is so basic for me now I almost go into a meditative state doing it...It's kind of plain compared to running up walls and what not...
I guess maybe I don't feel like sleepin.."

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:13 pm

Alex smirks.

Alex: What's the matter? You jealous?.... Gabe do you need a hug too?

Cryonix Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:16 pm

Gabe: ......Well, since you're giving them out...

Gabe and Alex hug. Nicholas laughs...

Nicholas: Why are you here so late?

Gabe: Stupid airport lost me and Nikki's bags, coming over from the Great Barrier Reef. A friggin' seven hour delay!

Pockets Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:18 pm

Nikki: For you it can't be jet lag, but I didn't think you'd want to miss your sisters' kicking ass. What's up?

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:20 pm

Alex: Damn..... you missed an eventful evening....

Cryonix Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:21 pm

Nicholas: Yeah.......oh.....uh oh....

Gabe: Oh?

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:23 pm

Alex: Someone.... decided to compete in the throwdown......

Cryonix Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:25 pm

Gabe's eyes narrow...

Gabe: You must be mistaken, brother. No one would ever disgrace our family name by participating in such a unworthy event...

He looks square at Nicholas...

Gabe: .......right?

Nicholas: ~gulp~

Pockets Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:26 pm

Alexis: Time for bed Alex? Wouldn't want to be tired for the tournament tomorrow.

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:31 pm

Alex: Yes we should probably get some..... rest, honey.

He goes over to Nicholas.

.... remember son.... I love you dearly..... good luck.....

He takes Lexi's hand and leads her to the bedroom.

Pockets Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:46 pm

As they reach the bedroom, Alexis flops on the bed.

Alexis: They would have to keep us up the night before a big tournament.

Jabberwocky Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:52 pm

Connor:"I get the feeling I'll have a lot on my mind the next while.."

Cryonix Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:53 pm

Gabe sits next to Nicholas...

Gabe: You know...I've had a long, long day...and with the way I'm feeling right now...me 'talking' to you would not be good. So...I'm going to go take a nap. I advise you do the same. I will see you at 9 in the morning.....sharp...and DON'T make me come looking for you. Understand?

Nicholas: Y...yes sir.

Meanwhile...halfway across the world....

Girl: Ugh...I said I'm sorry, and I meant it. What more do you want from me?

Man: How about you stop going out in the middle of the night, stealing our car and running our tires into the ground?

Girl: It's not my fault that you have your suspension set too high for drifting.

Man: ...and it's not my fault that the last time you went 'drifting', you totaled your car! Jesus, Natasha...

The girl looks up at the man...

Natasha: I'm sorry daddy. I really am. Look, I'll give you half my winnings to pay for damages, alright?

Man: You won?

Natasha: Who's going to beat Natasha Cortez in drifting? I'm just simply the best....

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 28, 2012 8:57 pm

Alex flops down next to Lexi

Alex: ...you knew the moment they were born our little angels were going as awkward as possible.

He chuckles.

Jabberwocky Tue Feb 28, 2012 9:04 pm

The voice of an irritated woman comes from behind Natasha
"There you are!"

Pockets Tue Feb 28, 2012 9:07 pm

Nikki: Why is that?

Alexis: Awkward is not the first word that comes to my mind.

Cruel Britannia Tue Feb 28, 2012 9:09 pm

Alex: .....oh? ..... and what would that word be?

Pockets Tue Feb 28, 2012 9:11 pm

Alexis: I don't know... awkward seems too... one dimensional I guess.

Jabberwocky Tue Feb 28, 2012 9:15 pm

Connor:"Everything that goes with being an Edwards male I guess heh..."
