I'm the devil.

Alex Pape.

“Finished or unfinished, what does it truly matter? Show me, please?” Narrowing her eyes, Catherine couldn’t help but let out groan of disapproval. “You—” She began, placing her hands on both sides of his shoulders as she gave him a slight shake, “You’re no fun. Am I going to have to somehow locate your stash of drawings all on my own?”

[alex-pape]

“You’re so very stubborn, did you know that?” Sighing heavily, Alex only moved the picture further and further away from her. Taking hold of her wrists, he leant in to steal a quick kiss from his beloved. “You can look all you want, that doesn’t mean you’ll find it. Anywayt, wouldn’t you rather be here with me?”

[gdicatherine-deactivated2015082]

“Stop doing that. If I wanted to then I would have, no force required, but I — — Fine, fine, whatever. But you have to show me the drawing, sketch, whatever you were working on. I need to make sure you haven’t been over there doodling stick figures while I’ve been doing absolutely nothing.”

[alex-pape]

Wrapping one arm around her waist, Alex pulled her tightly into him. “I can’t show you. It’s not finished.” He mumbled softly, “One day I will, I’ll show you all my drawings but until then, my love. You’ll have to be patient and wait.”

[gdicatherine-deactivated2015082]

“But — — no. I’ve been standing here doing nothing for the past-… I don’t really know, but it’s been a long time and I’m bored. Can’t you just draw something else?”

[alex-pape]

But Catherine, you’re beautiful. --- Urgh fine, come here then.

[derekht-deactivated20150719]

“I didn’t. You said you wanted to draw something and I told you to draw me. I never thought you would actually do it. I suppose you just like me too much.”

[alex-pape]

“Of course I do. You’re just so damn cute. Now, where to keep this photo? I don’t think you’re special enough to be put in the pile of my Catherine sketches or Connors. Hm, maybe I could send this to your Grandparents, they still like me, right?”

[derekht-deactivated20150719]

“Gee, Alex. —— Happy? ”

[alex-pape]

“Very happy. Now, why did you want me to draw you?”

[derekht-deactivated20150719]

“Why did I even agree with this? But fine, fine. I’ll stay still.”

[alex-pape]

“And smile, Derek. You were smiling before.”

[gdiautumn]

——- Don’t tell me what to do.

[alex-pape]

I’ll tell you what I want, Sweetheart. Now, stay still and shut up. 

[ihyvanessa]

“I’m bored.”

[alex-pape]

“You asked me to draw you and you’re the bored one?”

[alex-pape]

“I’m trying to draw you here and you’re making it incredibly difficult with your constant moving. Stay still.”

“We know the last thing he [Klaus] said to her [Caroline] was, “I intend to be your last love.” I don’t think they [the writers] dangle that carrot and not come through with anything.”

“Excuse you? Have you lost your damn mind? There is absolutely no way in hell that I’m doing that.”

[alex-pape]

“Love, I lost my mind a long time ago. Come, just try it.”

[whatsilas]

“——That’s…. — that’s not up to you… —-I don’t… — I don’t know what more you’d want from me, but… I can’t do… that.”

[alex-pape]

“Why not? Please, enlighten me.”

[whatsilas]

“Oh…. — oh god. —-Stop.. — please. I… —I really.. I…— can’t…”

[alex-pape]

“Your tears are for you pillows where I don’t have to see them. Just do it or, you will never see my brother again.”

[whatsilas]

“Hey.. — hey, yeah.. I don’t know if I’m comfortable with that.”

[alex-pape]

“All you have to do is shout into this megaphone telling everyone that you’re gay and that you’re in love with my brother.”

[gdicatherine-deactivated2015082]

"Alex.” An underlying tone of warning laced her words as a pitiful smile tugged up at the corners of her lips in an attempt to mask the confusion that had colored her face. Features frozen in an expression that staggered between an emphatic sense of uncertainty and fear as she pondered over the proper words to say. “I care about you too.” The assurances that had once rested readily on her tongue, stumbled from her lips clumsily. His gaze suffocating, overwhelming, but she couldn’t manage to tear her eyes away from the foreign sense of familiarity. “I’m not going anywhere, okay? I promise.” Her stare broke, head burying itself in the bend between his neck and shoulder as arms reached up to snake around his neck. “I’m not going anywhere.” She repeated, the already hushed whisper muffled, “I won’t leave you.”

[alex-pape]

Although her words weren’t what he wanted to hear, the idea of her never leaving contented his nerves. “You’re mine, Catherine.” Alex brisked against her ear. “Even if you don’t want too.” Yes, he was possessive, jealous and above all, rude. But when it came to Catherine; his fears, his darkest thoughts disintegrated at even the mention of her name. “You’re mine.” This time, his hands gripped her sides, desperate, hungry for her to understand. Colliding his lips against hers, they molded into eachother. “Mine.”

[whatpreston]

“Weak and boring? Well, aren’t you just doing wonders to my ego. Keep this up and your relationship with Catherine might never receive the Preston stamp of approval.”

[alex-pape]

“The Preston stamp of approval? We all know that means nothing.”

[wonderrps]

“I’ll open the window, but only if you don’t mind me having one too.”

[alex-pape]

“I don’t mind, Sweetcheeks.”
