– THE QUESTION MADE SHEA’S FEATURES pull into a defeated frown, his guard immediately building itself back up as he came to realize adella wasn’t going to let this go. he rolled his eyes, fingers twitching in irritation. “what the FUCK do they look like? give them back.” his voice was dripping in aggravated sarcasm, reaching to snatch the bag away from her once more.

the way his voice snapped at her set her in a state of shock and this time when he went to grab the bag it was tore from her hands, sending her stumbling backwards, the hurt laden on her features. “i   i’m sorry, shea,” she apologized with a small voice, “i won’t bother you anymore about it.”

“i know, della, i know,” she laughed. “i think our first real performance should be during the first football game. but we have to do some like fake performance for the local news so they can use the footage all season.”

“ahh alright, i get what you mean. well whenever you get the date of the first game you better tell me immediately, miss. i need to make sure none of our brothers try to make any plans that day because they’re going. we’re all going.”

“We’re really rich so I guess I always assume people can’t buy the stuff we buy. It’s nothing personal. “ she smiled softly. “But hey if you want it I can show you the way to the store? “

“right...now i don’t mean to sound rude or anything but when you assume such things it does come off as personal, and hurtful. maybe just consider what you say to who you are talking to? it’s the right thing to do after all,” she mused with a small smile before shaking her head, “i actually don’t like to wear makeup, it’s not really my thing.”

“I mean, you’re right. Look at you, covering all the bases, thinking that I have friends.” Gabe replied with a grin before shaking his head. “So, while I’ve been off, having no friends. What have you been doing? What have I missed?”

“i’m sure you have a few friends, gabe. if not i can share my friends, they’re pretty awesome,” she offered before returning a smile to him. “well i went to the doctors recently...for a little checkup of sorts.”

vulcan’s eyes dropped all the way to the floor as she brought up the elephant in the room. he felt guilty, if he was being honest. that was HIS kid but…as awful as it was to say, he didn’t see it as his. he never wanted children, he never wanted to settle down. he had a dream and it was to sail the world…once he got enough money for his dream boat. he let out an awkward, strained chuckle, “uh- well, not exactly.“ he placed his hands in his pockets, finally glancing back to her. “look, della, you knew what you were getting into when you met me. and i’m sorry- but- i’m selfish. i know it, and i’ve never changed, and i will never change.”

there was no way for her to stand there and look him in the eyes, it wasn’t that easy for her. once their eyes met she almost immediately looked away, eyes scanning over anything and everything around him   just not directly at him. “really?” she began and for the first time during that conversation she gave him all of her attention, “you think i knew i was going to end up like this? knocked up?” the words were bitter and she was just insulting herself in the end but there was no other way her brain would allow herself to put it. “i just wanted something fun, vulcan. just like you did. but mistakes happen and this is one of them. i guess i just came here to tell you that if you wanted to ever be in this baby’s life then...you can.” she paused to fish something out of her purse, pulling out a scan from her previous ultrasound. she held it out to him with one hand, “this was from last month...don’t you want to look at least a little?”

he grinned at her compliment. he was used to compliments, but hearing adella flirt so openly… it was something else, he had to admit to himself. “thank you,” he said. he would’ve teased her, maybe, but he didn’t want her to feel any more bashful. “and that’s a really good question, actually. well, the main things i do… i like to perform music, and i do some modelling jobs, but i like to dabble in as much as i can, honestly. LAST month, i did a little explosives work,” he listed off casually, “installed a couple of fences. this week, i’m trying bartending and car-wash.” the usual interpretations of his changing jobs were either that he was ridiculously driven or the opposite: that he never committed to a single thing. his smile abated, quietly worried that she would begin to see him the second way as well. “and of course, the party gig. don’t worry. i think the kid just wants to ‘meet’ his favourite disney characters. just the costumes alone would drive him nuts, from what i’ve heard. so… is it a date?”

adella was aware of the fact that morris was not an ordinary person but in all honesty hearing the expanse of his resume was a bit...overwhelming. not in a bad way, it simply took her a minute to process all of the information that had just been thrown at her and once she took it all in she was actually impressed. the only thing she could put down on hers is that she was a waitress and apart of a few clubs during her high school career. “morris,” she began, pausing as to think of the right words to use, “i’m speechless. i didn’t know you did so much, that’s amazing.” that wasn’t the only thing to catch her off guard. is it a date? he had asked her. it was probably nothing but for some reason it echoed in her head, her heart fluttering at the though. she snapped herself out of the trance before nodding softly with a sheepish grin, “um, yes. it’s a date.”

– SHEA SWALLOWED THE KNOT that was forming in his throat as adella yanked the bag of pills away from him, his hands falling to his sides as he came to the realization that he was going to have to face this situation head on. “—–nothing,” he glanced back and forth between his sister’s face and the object in her hand, his face draining of color. “—-give —– give them back.”

her heart broke when he didn’t tell her right away. sure, he had his right to his own secrets and maybe she was being unfair and dramatic but if so she could just blame it on all of the hormones. she just wanted him to talk to her about it, to tell the truth. she wanted to be the person that he could talk to about stuff like this. almost immediately she laid blame on blue and that maybe he told shea she was unreasonable or something of the sorts. “what are they?”

gabernathy:

“Okay… I guess that makes sense? But also, do I even have menstrating friends?”

“i don’t know who all of your friends are, gabe. all i know is it’s definitely not mine so i thought...maybe it was yours? it does sound dumb now but i was just making sure.”

“hey i’m not THAT young,” elodie protested and crossed her arms. “it’s just an important part of the uniform and if we’re a team we’ve all gotta look y’know UNIFORM.”

“i’m teasing you, el,” she mused, a short laugh following her words. “when’s your first performance? i don’t wanna miss it, i’m gonna make everyone come. unless you’ve already had it and in that case when’s your second one?”

“A store that’s probably a little too expensive for you. “ Fura said putting it away in her purse. “It’s called La vie on rose- “

“and how do you know what i can and can’t afford?” she questioned, brows lightly raising, “last time i checked you haven’t seen my paycheck.”

“huh?” elodie turned around at the sound of adella’s voice. “oh my god della you are a lifesaver. if i were to lose that bow my coach would KILL me.”

“that’s why i’m here, to look after you younger one,” she teased with a light smile. “i can’t imagine how much that one bow is but i’m sure it’s enough for your coach to freak.”

shabernathy:

– “HUH?” shea turned around, raising his eyebrows at his sister. at the sight of the object in her hand – the little bag of pills a certain someone named griffin had gifted him for his birthday – his eyes widened, immediately moving to snatch it away from her. “yeah, that’s mine. give it.”

his reaction was enough for her to know that the small pills inside were most certainly not ibuprofen. before he got the chance to grab it she took a step back, pulling her arm back as well so he couldn’t reach them. she wasn’t angry. in all honesty she was worried about him which is why she suddenly became so inquisitive, “what are these, shea?”

fura-vaughn:

“o hell- of course that’s mine. “ she took her lipstick out of the blonde’s hand.

“it’s a pretty color,” she commented with a friendly smile, “where’d you get it from?”
