Chicago!
Private:
It’s been accumulating over the years. I think I got most of the frustration out of my system. Or at least enough that we can have a civil meet up.
Private:
Almost afraid to ask what you might have done if you hadn’t gotten it out of your system.
Chicago!
Private:
I’m really not interested in sitting down to a meal and spending the entire time listening to you talk about yourself and about how much better I could be at things if I just took your advice.
Sam and I will meet you for coffee. That’s as best as you’re going to get.
Private:
I don’t know how the conversation took this turn but I’m sorry if I said anything that offended you baby brother.
I can handle coffee and great, I get to meet your fiance.
Chicago!
You’re not even listening to me.
I am listening to you. Look, maybe if we sat down and had dinner or went out or something. I’m actually planning on staying through the holiday at least, I found a decent apartment.
Chicago!
I don’t call you because it’s only ever about you, your accomplishments, and what you’re up to, and I’m sick and tired of having to hear it. And what it means is that when something is important to me, or something matters to me, you really don’t seem to care.
I get being busy, that happens to just about everyone in existence. But somehow the world only ever seems to revolve around you and you being busy.
I’m not interested in having a relationship with you if it’s just going to be you belittling me.
I’m sorry for being excited and wanting to share my accomplishments with my family. Alright, sure, I may take it to an extreme at times but it doesn’t mean I don’t care about you, baby bro.
I think you’re being a little over dramatic right now. I never said the world revolves around me. But I have been busy and you seem to have been busy too.
I’m not trying to belittle you.
Chicago!
I’m actually extremely aware of how life in New York is. I live near there when I’m not in school. My family lives on LI and I can navigate the city like a pro. I know what you’re talking about, even though I don’t personally think I’ve become unfriendly. Unless, of course, you are in my way when I’m trying to get somewhere. Then my New York roots come out full force.
Huh. Those must have been episodes I missed, since I do actually watch those shows. I’ll have to rewatch them to see you. What a terrible burden.
Ah a New York native. Good to know that you knew what I was trying to say. I’m not saying I am anything like that either, but yes I can be a little more...aggressive now that I have lived in New York. But, as you pointed out, if someone gets in my way I am more likely to show that side.
Oh. I’m not in that many just some episodes...in the background. I was just starting off though.
Chicago!
No, I’m not anyone’s soulmate, and I don’t believe I ever will be.
It’s actually a common day job, at least around here. I know two other actors who work in real estate. It’s easy because it never really interferes with rehearsals or performances.
Because you don’t believe in them?
Really now? That’s different. Can’t say that I’ve come across that before. I suppose I’ll have to find a side job while I’m here. Not that it will be real estate and not that there is anything wrong with it. Don’t think it’s for me though.
Chicago!
.. Your face isn’t ringing any bells for me. Perhaps I’m just not familiar with your work.
Really? That’s very disheartening. Chaz Melbourne from the day time soap opera Out of Time. Plus I’ve been on multiple commercials, a few episodes of NCIS and Law and Order. Really, you don’t know this face. Not even a little.
Chicago!
I guess I caught your show once or twice during the day while I was cleaning or something. I grew up on telenovelas, so soaps give me nostalgia.
Anyway, it’s because he may have been the target of one of my rage fits a time or two. Not in a while though, but I’ve heard that he is worried one day I’m going to stab him with my stilettos. Like I’d ever ruin a pair of shoes for murder.
Happy to meet a fan. At least someone here appreciates the work I did.
I can tell you’re a person who isn’t afraid to speak their mind. I’ll be sure to remember that, sounds like I don’t want to be on the other end of one of those fits. Well of course not, blood is difficult to get out. A little fear is healthy though. I’m sure he’s just over reacting.
Chicago!
There’s a celebrity around? Where?
I’m starting to get that you people aren’t day time soap opera people.
Chicago!
Well I’d appreciate it if you didn’t show up out of the blue and just offer a bunch of criticisms. You’re my brother, Coop. Support me. I have every episode of your soap opera recorded on our DVR. I never missed an episode, even if I wasn’t a big fan. I remembered your birthday every year. You can’t even be bothered to note that I was engaged. I got enough flack from Dad about my life choices and my apparent “lack” of accomplishments, I don’t need it from you too. Especially when you just show up one day after I haven’t seen you in years. The names of my soulmates on my skin aren’t a cancer or a skin disease. It’s a soulmark. I wouldn’t expect you to understand that either. A lot of people don’t. My life isn’t a TV show drama.
You can’t just show up one day and expect us to be best brothers. If you want a relationship with me, it’s going to take some repair work. Because there’s a lot of things I needed my brother for, needed support for, and you weren’t available.
Constructive criticisms. I’m trying to support you. Okay, so I have been less than a great brother lately. I showed up because we haven’t seen each other in a while. What did you want me to do? Stay gone? Don’t answer that because I think I know what it’s going to be. I want to spend time with you, but suddenly you don’t want that. I’m trying to make things better.
You act like I never sent you a card. And I apologized for not knowing you were engaged but I didn’t see you calling to tell me and it’s not Mom’s job to play messenger. And what is that supposed to mean? You wouldn’t expect me to understand. I don’t. I mean I honestly don’t understand the whole soulmark/soulmate...thing. But what are you trying to say by that?
I was busy. I had a career. A successful six season run on a hit television soap opera until they decided to kill me off. Rent doesn’t pay itself so I had to find other jobs, commercials, smaller roles and so on. Forgive me for sounding like a broken record but, I was busy. I get it’s not an excuse to you but it’s true.
Chicago!
I don’t have that, actually.
I don’t know him well. We’ve actually never met in person, but he did recommend a good drummer for a show of mine. I’m an actress. I actually just finished covering for the role of Roxie Hart in Chicago. I also sell real estate, but that’s just my money job.
Oh so you’re just more of acquaintances. Okay. I thought you were going to say that you were another one of his soulmates. He apparently has a few of those. I’m just joking. But hey very nice to meet another actor. Both an actor and real estate agent. That’s interesting.
Chicago!
Blaine’s brother is Chaz Melbourne?
I mean, uh, what’s up? Santana Lopez. I’m pretty sure your little brother is scared of me.
At you’re service.Good to know I’ve got a fan here. Hi, Cooper Anderson. But you already knew that.
Nice to meet you Santana. Why would he be scared of you? Is there something I should know?
Chicago!
Ah, I see. Some of us have day jobs that prevent us from watching melodramatic stories in the middle of the day.
Well, Blaine’s brother. I’m Quinn.
Ouch. I felt that one. There is such a thing called DVR.
Nice to meet you, Quinn. You’re one of Blainey’s little friends then. So Miss Quinn, what exactly do you do herein Chicago?
Chicago!
I’m sure the snow certainly didn’t help with your flight delay. But if you’ll be in town for a while, you’re absolutely welcome to come to our Friendsgiving celebration on Wednesday!
We do all live together, yes, although I have a feeling that may change once Blaine and Sam are married. I wouldn’t want to infringe on their privacy as newlyweds. Anyway, no, there’s nothing science fictional about being or having a soulmate, and it wasn’t Blaine who “roped me into” anything; my dads are soulmates, the founders of the Ame Cerise soulmate cafe, and I myself as well as my girlfriend and our circle of friends exist as incontrovertible proof that this isn’t “nonsense.” I’m sure that Blaine can fill you in on the details of his life; however, if you like, we have several pieces of literature and a drop-in discussion group where you can get all the necessary facts on the reality of soulmates.
I don’t really watch soaps, but you do look familiar now that you mention it. Maybe I’ve seen you on a magazine on the checkout stand, or – wait. Aren’t you the credit score guy?
Nope, had nothing to do with it actually. I got in early last week before the snow hit. Had I known there would be snow I might have caught my connecting flight. But I wanted to stay in town, explore a little. I don’t get the chance to be a tourist often. Plus, Blaine’s here and what kind of brother would I be if I didn’t stop to visit once in a while. Friendsgiving, huh? Sounds like fun. I’ll be there.
Interesting. I’ll make sure to mark my calendar for such events. But uh, I don’t buy into the whole “soulmark” and “soulmate” thing. Kudos to you if you could make a believer out of me.
I have been on the cover of Soap Opera Digest a couple of times. Guilty as charged. Well, at least you know me from something. I was starting to feel like a ghost for a moment there.
Chicago!
Yeah I suppose that’s true. New York is a very unfriendly place, especially if you don’t know how to work the streets and you act like a total tourist, Chicago’s much prettier when it isn’t snomageddon outside and you can actually spend time outside, enjoying the sights.
Huh. I only really watch legal dramas, the occasional Pretty Little Liars, and musicals. So soap operas aren’t really my thing. It’s cool to know someone who’s been on TV for so long though!
Thing about New York is you learn to live in it. If that makes sense. What I mean is, you learn to become a New Yorker and eventually that kind of thing doesn’t bother you mostly because you’ve become just as unfriendly. I hope you followed me on that.
Of course you do. Well, I’ve been on a few episodes of Law and Order and NCIS. Nothing major though.
Chicago!
You…didn’t know your own brother was getting married? Oh. Awkward.I’m glad I wasn’t the one to tell you first, at least! And you can help while you’re here, I”m sure, assuming Blaine and Sam need it.
Yeah, Madison’s my twin sister–I’m glad she’s already met you, it saves me having to be like guess who I’m talking to later! We were just in San Francisco for our birthday, though, it was definitely a nice change of pace. And temperature. But at least in Chicago the holidays feel like holidays, you know?
I suppose it’s good I heard it from my brother. Better late than never, right? That is assuming, of course, that they want my help.
Twins. Got it. Chicago is a different change of pace from L.A. especially with this snow. Although, since I wasn’t expecting snow or to really stay in Chicago I did not bring the necessary attire. I’ve had to make a trip out shopping. I lived in New York for a while so I get the idea of winter but I have to say, I really didn’t miss the snow while I lived in L.A. At least, I didn’t miss being out in it.
Chicago!
And…who are you?
I feel like people are doing this now just to mess with me. I’m Cooper Anderson, day time soap opera star. Although I’m starting to see that many of you are just going to know me as Blaine’s brother.
