in my veins

“I hope so too. So, you would prefer traveling by train, bus or car than traveling by plane?“

[asherlockhart]

"Yeah, but the only way to get to London from here would be by sea and I think that takes a lot of time, so I'm stuck with planes."

Asher & Nolan

“What are you doing all the way out here? If you don’t mind me asking.”

[asherlockhart]

"I was transferred to our office in San Francisco and my sister lives here."

[emmxchase-blog]

“Not even a vacation to begin with? Dare I ask you what you were your business? Sorry, I am taking care on the whole curious part of me, it’s hard not to let it show.”

[asherlockhart]

"I wish it had been a vacation. I went to London to mend a few problems and for work, so it's not really interesting."

“See, that’s what horribly wrong in this religion, people only ask for forgiveness when they’re about to die. Not me, I would like to go with my eyes closed and probably – hopefully – dreaming about the best thing I possibly could. Regardless of forgiveness or not, I would probably go to hell, anyway. Trust me, nobody wants the panic of knowing they are going to die. – Oh, your luggage went international, huh? Now I’m a sad person, because I’m envious of your luggage.”

[asherlockhart]

"I'm not religious, but I also don't want to risk it. Just in case hell and limbo are real, I would hate to spend the eternity there. You don't look like someone that would go to hell, you seem like the kind of girl that has a VIP access to heaven. Yeah, of course nobody wants that. That would be like living knowing the exact date of your death. — Let's be sad together, because I'm jealous too. I wish they could send me to pick it up."

[tessa-drake]

“A little annoying? She got on my nerves throughout that whole movie.  Yes, a major one. Yeah he was totally a sociopath, but anyway I had more of a crush on the actor rather than on the character. He was a whiny mommas boy.”

[asherlockhart]

"I was trying to be nice, but yes, I just wanted for someone to stab her. That makes it better, I would be worried if you had a crush on the actual character."

[jules-emerson-blog]

“Probably. And coverups hurt like a bitch, because you’re tattooing already scarred skin. Do you have any ideas for where you’d want the tattoo? That would help you figure out what you want or how big or something. Me? I have a couple. A bunch of little self done tattoos and a couple of actual ones. Ooh, that’s cool. Typography can be a lot of fun. That’s really interesting!”

[asherlockhart]

"I've heard that, poor girls. Although I'm not really sorry for them. Not really, but I know I don't want something very big. Maybe the arm. Self done tattoos? That's a big perk of being an artist, you don't have to pay for them. It's very fun, but I won't talk about it because when I do I start to sound very nerd and lame, and I would like to seem cool for once."

“Life here is definitely – I don’t know, it’s easier than home I guess,” said Shaun with a nod. “Sometimes, but it’s not quite as appealing as staying here.”

[asherlockhart]

"Maybe it's because we left some problems at home." He said, shrugging. "A few months ago I wouldn't have agreed with you, but now it's not so bad."

“Fester, starve, buy my own food?” She jested, a grin filling her lips as she lent back on the couch, sinking into it slightly. “Yay!” She sung at the mention of attention before laughing slightly. “Really? That makes me feel slightly better.” Maddie grinned, crossing her legs under her as she nodded. Her brow raised at his questions, her teeth sinking into her bottom lip to stop her from laughing. “There’s singing, so much singing. So I sing and my dog attempts to sing too but the lizard, the lizard does not sing.” She informed him seriously before confirming with a sharp nod. A grin beginning to crack at the corners of her lips.

[asherlockhart]

"Okay, fine you can survive without me." He said, a small pout on his lips before smiling at her. "I mean it. I tend to complain a lot, so compared to me you're hardly a complainer." He admitted. Looking at her waiting for her to answer her questions. Furrowing his brows at the mention of the lizard before letting out a sigh of relief. "That's good. I never understood why animals have to sing which is ridiculous for me to say since I like a movie about talking cars, I'll better shut up." He bit his lip, a soft grimace gracing his features before looking at the TV again.

“You work in San Fran? Now I see. That must really suck to get there by public transportation. As long as you work on it you’ll be fine. And until then you’re doing good for the environment. –Okay, so hall seat for long flights. I’m a little bit scared of heights, maybe I wouldn’t get the window seat anyway.”

[asherlockhart]

"Yeah, when I first got here I got lost a hundred times. That's what I say, the Earth is a better place because of me. — You should try at least one, like I said in a short flight, the view is amazing and after the takeoff the flight is very steady."

[edenlockhart]

“I never want to get rid of you even if you are a pain in the arse.” She laughed as she linked her arm in his resting her head on his shoulder for a moment. “Can I help you pick an outfit?” She joked, giving him a quick glance before chewing the inside of her cheek. Asher was not a good liar, he had never been and she was very good at noticing and he was lying or at least trying to hide something. “I’m sure you do.” She replied without any further questions.

[asherlockhart]

"Thank you?" He joked, a soft laugh escaped his lips. "Very funny, E." He gave her a sarcastic laugh before shooting her a serious look. Eden knew he was hiding something and many times he tried to convince himself to speak to her, after all she was his sister but still the feeling of guilt was lingering. "I do, so now stop worrying about it."

“But now you have to, I mean you already teased me with that now I wanna know. Aw, I was really expecting the rom-com, but whatever I take the comedy. Anyway, drinks?”

[asherlockhart]

"Well, you look like you like to party? I don't know. You're not gonna give up, right?"

[brooklyn-c-monroe]

“I totally understand that train of thought to be honest, but I really think it all changes once it’s your own kid, you know? Like… I don’t think it’s something anyone understands before they hold their own son or daughter in their arms for the first time. I could be wrong of course - I don’t have kids so it’s really only a theory.”

[asherlockhart]

"I wouldn't know if you are wrong, but that theory sounds legit to me. I guess we will find out whenever we become parents."

[tessa-drake]

“Yeah I guess you’re right. Right? If I had it my way Billy and Stu would’ve killed her in the first movie. Is it weird that I was kind of rooting for them? But then again when I watched that movie for the first time I had a crush on Billy. He was cute.”

[asherlockhart]

"Exactly! It's not weird at all, I was rooting for them too. Sidney was a little annoying. You had a crush on Billy? He was cute, and a sociopath but that's probably is not that important because he had good looks and charisma."

[benxscott-deactivated20170829]

“Got it,” Shaun responded with a nod. “I honestly don’t what it would be like if I did the same myself.”

[asherlockhart]

"To be honest, it was weird being there. I guess I'm getting used to the life here." He admitted. "Do you ever think about going back?"

[madeleinecan-blog]

“You’re a star for feeding me.” She grinned, a small laugh falling from her lips. Her hands flew to her heart for a moment, her face washing with a facade of pain. “Man, I was always the jealous type.” She joked, watching him play with Coco as she smiled softly. “You say that like I complain a lot.” She mused with raised brows, falling down onto her couch next to him as she toyed with the remote.”Coco loves Disney films.” Maddie sung, glancing down to see Coco running into the sofa. “Jeeze boy.” She mumbled, shaking her head.

[asherlockhart]

"What would you do without me?" He asked, teasingly with a chuckle. He gave her a nonchalant shrug, a smile playing on her lips. "Fine, we'll pay more attention to you." He said, letting go the puppy as he glanced at her. "I'm kidding. Actually, I think you're the person I know that complains the least." He admitted, giving her a playful shoulder bump. "So, he's definitely gonna like tonight's movie." A smile still present on his lips as he saw the puppy running into the sofa. Turning to face Maddie, he put on a serious face before speaking. "Okay, I have a few questions about Tangled. Do people sing in the movie? And if they do, are you gonna sing? But most importantly, do animals sing in the movie? Because if they do, I don't know if I can handle that." He joked.

“But it’s not all that bad in Cloverbrook, is it? I don’t take my car around here so often either because it’s easier to walk most places. Hey, sometimes it just isn’t that easy to get over it, and I know that. –Really? Would you let me in on those tricks maybe?”

[asherlockhart]

"Here it's great, but I work in San Francisco which means I have to deal with a lot more people. Yeah, it's not that simple as one day wake up and feel like I'm over it, it's hard but not impossible to do. — Of course. Most people buy the seat next to window which is great if you are in a short flight, but if your flight is long take hall seat because you don't want to annoy to people when you go to the restroom, plus you can stretch your legs."

Do your siblings live here or still in London?

[asherlockhart]

"One of my sisters lives here, the other one is back in England studying college."
