“ — So are you starting at me ‘cause I did something wrong or do you have something on your mind?”

Gabriel raised an eyebrow. "Someone's having a bad day I see.."

So I've been having anxiety about this whole therapy thing. I don't know what to expect or how they're going to react to things I say. I just don't want to mess this up. I want to fix us. I think I'm going to see someone one on one, just to get a feel for the process so I don't feel so blind sided. Decisions decisions...

“Agreed!” he raised his cup in support. “My brother’s a dipshit for letting her go in the first place” he echoed into his cup. Putting the cup back down on the table to face bobby he replied, “because we’re broken and no one wants to get fixed. Or we can’t do it without someone else telling us..I don’t know..it’s one huge argument of ‘you’re not the boss of me’”. He sighed heavily. “Its like a really bad Dr. Phil episode…coukd be worse…could be Maury…but then none of us have questionable babies, and I think that’s a requirement for the show.” Smiling stupidly, he fist bumped the air, “damn right you do!”

“Hey!” He held up a finger. “Be nice to the dipshit. Alex is still mah bro. Still love him. And at least HE’S better than Edward for sure.” Bobby listened to the young man with a frown. Here he was talking about himself when his best friend and his brothers were not in the right state of mind. “Ah. shit. I think Scott’s the one with questionable babies. Those cuckoo girls look awfully like him. Just sayin’.” He snaked an arm around Gabe. “Listen kid, you guys have had it real rough and I think that maybe seeking out some help wouldn’t be the worst idea. Everything will resolve itself. As for me? I’m not here pining over Kitty. We had our chance and I blew it. I’m fine with the repercussions. Besides, plenty of Bellas out in the world.” It was the most honest he had been with himself in ages.

“Yeah well..he’s literally my brother..and he’s a dipshit...Pfft yeah..Edward’s laaaame. My brother is a lot of things, but not lame.” He looked sadly into the bottom of his cup, upset that it was empty, before pouring another. “HA! I'd like to see Warren’s face if he found out. One kid, he could probably handle....five..Warren might throw him off the Empire State Building” he chuckled. “I hope you’re right man..Yeah that’s true..anyone you have your eye on?”

“RIGHT? Jacob was way better than that British dude..” He shrugged, “hey man, you never know, you might still have a chance. She’s totally dragging Connor along for the ride until she figures out what she wants. Maybe it’s you, I mean what do I know. I’m going to therapy soon..” Gabriel got sad at the thought of his dad, “I bet he was an awesome man..” He looked up at his friend, “No Bobby! You’re a good man! It doesn’t end like this! Not for you! You won’t end up like Jacob!”

“Edward was just a whiny joke. ‘Bellaaa. Don’t come close to me.” He mocked the famous vampire and shook his head at Gabriel’s words. “Listen kid, I don’t think Kitty would do that. Even when Piotr came back after that mission, she tried and then had to call things off. She wouldn’t hurt a fly. I don’t think it’s me. It’s your brother and I’m learning to live with that but—“ He shot him a sympathetic look. “Therapy? How come? Yeah, your dad was from what I have heard.” Bobby laughed. “Alright, I won’t end up like Jacob. I refuse.”

“Agreed!” he raised his cup in support. “My brother’s a dipshit for letting her go in the first place” he echoed into his cup. Putting the cup back down on the table to face bobby he replied, “because we’re broken and no one wants to get fixed.

Alphonso laughed lightly at his friends comment,“ Well an early congratulations, Gabe! I’m proud of you!” He smiled “It’s the devil in me, keeps me looking good. Hahahah! And other then running missions with your brother and finishing school, trying to find the right time to ask Cat to marry me.” Al said slightly above the normal level of speech. “Sorry, didn’t mean to say that out loud. Shhhh, don’t tell Cat I said that.”

“Thanks” he chuckled. “Must be, what did you sell? because I don’t think your soul is enough” he joked. Gabriel’s face grew serious momentarily, “marry? Wow. Congrats man” he pulled Al in for a quick embrace. “Don’t worry, my lips are sealed. “

“Naw, still got my soul. We just share the body.” Al waved a hand over his chest and head. “Yeah just trying to find the right time to ask her, but running around the world with your brother and school kinda makes it hard. You know he still has your lasagne pan? It’s like right by the front door at his and Warren’s pad.”

Gabriel chuckled at his friend’s wit. “Sorry bro, at least my brother makes time for somebody..” Gabriel almost choked on his next sip, “THAT BASTARD I KNEW IT!!” He huffed, “that’s Martha Stewart you know!”

“I’ll remember. Freaking Bella didn’t know what she had until it was gone.” His eyes widened.”Like when I decided oh let me be a big boy and play the field. Lost Kitty after that.” Bobby sighed. “Alex has a family that isn’t full of dickwads.And from what Scott has told me, your dad was a good man. My father wrote the book on douche. This ain’t no pitty party I’m just sayin’. He has the most amazing girl after him. He gets to be a fuckin’ Avenger. He gets you and Scott.” Bobby finished his glass. “I get a team Jacob shirt and old ticket stubs.”

“RIGHT? Jacob was way better than that British dude..” He shrugged, “hey man, you never know, you might still have a chance. She’s totally dragging Connor along for the ride until she figures out what she wants. Maybe it’s you, I mean what do I know. I’m going to therapy soon..” Gabriel got sad at the thought of his dad, “I bet he was an awesome man..” He looked up at his friend, “No Bobby! You’re a good man! It doesn’t end like this! Not for you! You won’t end up like Jacob!”

“That’s lame and pretty messed up. I got you kid. When’s your birthday?” Bobby laughed out loud. “You just confessed to being Team Jacob well let me tell you how invested I am in Team Jacob. Kitty’s fault. She made me watch that shit.”He licked his lips and shook his head. “I’m jealous of your brother man.”

“Thanks Bobby. October 18th.” He grinned “Kitty’s team Jacob too! I knew there was a reason we’re friends!” Taking a sip from his glass “she didn’t deserve him you know. Girls suck.” Gabriel raised an eyebrow, “you’re jealous of the mopey fireball in the corner over there?”

Rahne smiled softly, “Well, just say the work and Ah know a good pub near by that will do just the trick for you.” Noticing the other physical reaction to his brother’s name, Rahne then adjusted her hold on her wine glass and took Gabe’s hand in her, tugging him away from the wine table. “Alright. Distraction it is then. We don’t need ye moppin’ around at a party like this, so give us a smile, yeah?”

“Rahne, you’re an amazing friend. I don’t think I told you that enough” he grinned, feeling the effects of the alcohol. He looked at Rahne and gave her the cheesiest grin. “How’s this” he joked.

“Because Scott like to dad everyone. I’m older and he still dads me.” Bobby grinned and gave Gabriel a playful jab to the jaw. “Shucks, kid. You’re too good for this world. Hey listen, Kitty can like who she likes I guess. Do I wish it was me? Hell yeah but my life ain’t over.” He looked over to Kitty and Connor together. “Are you saying that because you think Alex still loves her or something? I’ve has suspicions. I’m not 17 anymore. So I’m not fighting those two for her but I think those two are hot headed enough to destroy this place. Shit. Kitty.”

“Scott’s not my dad..he’s lame..and you know what? He never gave me back my lasagna dish..I mean who does that?” He smiled at Bobby’s jab. “Oh they totally still love each other..it’s like a bad episode of twilight..the movie..which is pretty bad since they were all awful..totally team jacob though” Gabriel shrugged, “Alex will blow anything up today i’m pretty sure.”

“Moody McGee and Goody Two Shoes? You are a blast in a glass, kid.” Bobby took a sip ofhis own alcohol. “Oh please. Scott is always out doing stupid shit. You’re not 16 anymore. I’ll talk to him.” He made a face. “Huh? Kitchen–nevermind. Kitty? Yeah she’s super pretty. Like ridiculous. I’m not hitting on her if I’m here with you, dude. I like Kitty, yeah. Who doesn’t? He laughed at Gabriel’s words. “You’re actin’ a fool tonight. Love.”

“Really? He never tells me this stuff..” Gabriel finished his glass and poured another. “You’re good peeps bobby..I like you..don’t know if I like you with Kitty yet..but I like you” He hiccuped. “Oh come on! You gotta admit, dude is kinda weird with the greetings in different languages and stuff..plus for someone who’s so smart, he doesn’t listen..Kitty HATES being called dear and he does it all the time..one time...I said it jokingly and she threw a mug at my head. I ducked..but man she’s got an arm..”

“No worries, roomie.” Al said with a smile spread across his face. He opened his arms and hugged his old roommate before refilling his own glass. “My god Gabe, it feels like yesterday we were sitting in the room and I was professing my emotions about Cat to you. How have you been?” An obvious hue of crimson across his face accompanied with a wonderful smile.

“I remember..those were the days huh?” he took a swig of wine. “I’ve been good! Can’t believe i’m graduating this year” he chuckled. “What about you? What are you up to these days besides not aging it seems” he laughed

Bobby started to crack up. “No dude! Scott is no shit head we got shit faced! But–” He arched a single brow. “Scott and Alex can be douchebags. What the fuck happened? Look Baby Summers, you’re too good for this world. Flee and do cool things like glacier climb. Shit that sounds amazing. God Kitty looks great tonight!”

“Bobby, brother suck..be happy you don’t have to deal with Moody McGee and Goody Two Shoes all the time.” He took another gulp of wine. “Can’t glacier climb” Gabriel replied, now sitting at the table with his head laying on his arm. “Goody two shoes says its too dangerous...but who knows..might die tomorrow in a kitchen fire.” Gabriel was unaware of how nonsensical he was sounding. Lifting the cup to his lips, he continued “Kitty always looks nice..she’s so pretty..wait are you hitting on her..you like kitty?” He thought about objecting but changed his mind. “Well better than the creepy dude..”

Having managed to pour herself a glass of wine before the youngest Summers had taken over the table, Rahne sloped her brows slightly. “Aye? Well if that’s so, yer goin’ to need somethin’ stronger than wine.” She mused, teasing only for a moment before looking at the other with concern, “Do ye want to talk about it? Or would ye rather just have a distraction from it?”

He looked up at his friend, “hey, yeah I wish” he chuckled. “I’ll take distraction for two thousand Alex” he held back the urge to cringe at saying Alex’s name.

“Aw. Gabe! Oh it’s so good to see you again!” She wrapped her arms around her faux brother. “I was so nervous about this whole thing and I’m just glad you’re here.”

“Are you kidding? I wouldn’t miss this!” he hugged Kitty tightly. “Beware, the bonehead brothers are at it again.”

“Geeze. That bad? Has something to do with Scott and Alex? You guys ok? No need to break out the detail just being a friend.” He poured himself another glass. “This is glass numero tres. or four? Not sure. I get drunk easily too. This one time in college, your brother had to drive me back to the dorms shit faced.”

“You have no idea” he replied, taking a deep sip of the elixer. “Just family drama” he shrugged, tilting the glass back and pouring another. “I can’t remember the last time I got drunk. Is that sad? Does that make me sad? I’m 22. I feel like I act like the responsible one all the time...do you know how much pressure that is for a kid like me?..you’re right he’s a shit face..” Gabriel took a deep breath “wow it really does hit you quick, Tony has good taste.”

“My favorite Summers baby. What the hell?” Bobby laughed as Gabe zoomed past him. “Alright. Not asking. This wine is good though.Hella sweet and it’ll get you right away.”

Gabe cracked a smirk at Bobby’s comment. “I don’t really care at this point as long as it has alcohol” he chuckled. “Right away? How much have you had?”
