The Best Damn Thing

The name is Cain and don't forget it. I don't like you.

[caintheman]

Perfect. Just perfect.

[evie-dayne]

Bloody hell. That bitch.

[caintheman]

She has every right.

[caintheman]

Perfect. Just perfect.

[evie-dayne]

What crawled up your arse, Cain?

[caintheman]

Ms. Weasley has seemingly disappeared...

[caintheman]

Perfect. Just perfect.

[evie-dayne]

[caintheman]

I don't know why I even bother with anyone half of the time.

[caintheman]

Perfect. Just perfect.

[evie-dayne]

Yes, I’d imagine my presence has made your day about as bright and sunny as the necessity of your presence in my day has made my day.

[caintheman]

[caintheman]

Perfect. Just perfect.

[evie-dayne]

What’s happened now?

[caintheman]

And you're here? Well, isn't this quite the most amazing day!

[caintheman]

Perfect. Just perfect.

[caintheman]

Well, this is most unpleasurably miserable.

[evie-dayne]

No kidding.

[caintheman]

Well hello, Ms. Dayne.

[caintheman]

Well, this is most unpleasurably miserable.

[caintheman]

Masquerade Ball: I'm sure none of you will look as good as I will, but at least try.

[caintheman]

I'm busy.

[evie-dayne]

You have a point there. We really can’t be trusted. Though, I think we have a plentiful reminder of what not to do. [She gestured to her abdomen.]

[caintheman]

I suppose you're correct.. However, it probably won't stop us the future.

[caintheman]

I'm busy.

[evie-dayne]

I’ll take a wild guess and say it’s probably good. I mean, more people than necessary don’t have to know about this, and he sounds like an idiot, to be quite honest.

[caintheman]

Yes, but in a general sense, bad things happen when you and I are left alone with each other.

[mason-dayne-blog]

You! You're Cain, right?

[mason-dayne-blog]

It sure as hell should. You’re acting calm now, but what about in a few months? What about when Evie’s stomach is the size of a fucking watermelon and it’s only a few weeks away from her going into labor? Will you act just as calm as you are now, or will everything your bottling up just come out and result in you leaving to never be seen again? Because I’m not letting this kid have some arse like that as their dad.

[caintheman]

Listen to me carefully, Mason. I will be here. Whether Evie hates me, is the size of a beach ball, or tells me to go. This child is my responsibility and I will be here. I don't know what drama you're holding on to, but do not take it out on me and do not assume things about me. You do not know me.

[caintheman]

I'm busy.

[evie-dayne]

Thank you. [She brushed past him and walked inside, listening to see if there was anyone else around.] Unless your pig of a roommate is still asleep, it sounds like we’re alone here.

[caintheman]

Merlin, I can't decide whether that's a good or bad thing.

[caintheman]

I'm busy.

[evie-dayne]

Really? Nice place.

[caintheman]

I serves its purpose. -walks up a flight of stairs before reaching his door and opening it- Welcome.

[mason-dayne-blog]

You! You're Cain, right?

[mason-dayne-blog]

Well, let’s see. There’s my brother George, my sister Charlotte, any of Evie’s friends… Anyone other than you! To be honest, you’re kind of freaking me the hell out being this calm about the fact that you’re going to be a fucking dad.

[caintheman]

Your opinion doesn't matter to me.

[caintheman]

I'm busy.

[evie-dayne]

I know it’s not. But I don’t know the answer to the question you were really asking, so I thought that might be better. [She nodded and half smiled.] Good. I’m glad.

[caintheman]

-stops- Well, this is us. -unlocks the front door to the building-

[caintheman]

I'm busy.

[evie-dayne]

I’m all right, I suppose. I’m alive, and healthy, and I could be much worse off. And how are you?

[caintheman]

That wasn't exactly what I was asking, but it's a start love. I'm pretty well for everything that has been going on lately.
