Moira smiles and places her hand on my chest "We'll leave soon I'm sure Randall would understand"
Reachingher cheek "I'm sorry I snapped at you earlier I shouldn't take my frustration out on you"
Her hand comes up to cover mine, and her eyes close briefly as she nuzzles into my caress "It's okay We all need that one person we can just vent to"
"And you'll be that person for me?" I ask in amusement
Her eyes bore into me with utter seriousness and purpose "I'll be your everything if you want me to"
Fuck yes, I want that
Fuck no, I can't have that Not e'll eventually be living on two different continents
Rather than give her affirmation, I pull our joined hands away frohs so softly, like a flower opening up its petals, and it makes me want to crush her to me
"Isn't that sweet?" I hear a woman's voice from behind ratulations to you"
Turning to face Cara, I pull Moira protectively into ht this woman beautiful, fro what I know about her, and knowing that she hasoffer of group sex and drugs, has erous at the moment
Cara stands there, wearing a blood-red gown, her hair piled with sophistication on top of her head She's holding a tulaze in her eyes and the slight way in which she sways back and forth, I can tell she's drunk
"Where's your date tonight?" I sneer "Oh, wait that would be your brother, right?"
Cara merely cocks up a perfectly arched eyebrow over ht with fists and blades, I can sharpen my words when I need to
"How dare you think to judge le rat trying to fit into a society that will never accept the likes of you You're nothing and you'll never aht like to try So, enjoy your time here while you can, Tarzan Then run back to your little home and try to re Moira will be grateful to get rid of you, leech, but then again, she's one of those wo her next pet Indian as soon as you're gone"
"You fucking bitch," Moira snarls as she takes a step toward Cara but I pull her back toward me
I hear another voice frootten in to you, Cara?"
Anglingin his eyes He steps aroundin closer to her "It is unacceptable to speak to Zach that way He's family"
Cara pulls her arnation "He's not our family You're blind to him"
"I see as well as I ever do," Randall ht now I think you need to leave, Cara"
"What?" she asks in disbelief "You're kicking me out of your home?"
"I' you to leave before you make a scene and before I'm forced to kick you out Go home and sleep off your drunk, and then maybe toy"
"Never," she hisses but spins on her heel, al toward the doorway I notice Clint angling in toward her He takes ahold of her arht behind her, and I sincerely hope that I never have to see those two again
"I'y "She's had too much to drink, and I'm sure she didn't mean those words"
Moira rests a hand onOily unease settles within ize for her, Randall Besides her words were pretty much true"
"That's preposterous," Randall gasps "Her words were nothingfrom a drunken and self-absorbed woman"
"Still," I tell him kindly as I reach a hand up to clasp his shoulder "It's not your place to apologize for her behavior Now, if you don't ht"
Moira slips her hand into ht squeeze "Thank you for hosting this party for Zach It was very nice"
