:lol: Yeah they're not themselves...Well it's good that I had this chapter planned then...
Broken Dreams, Broken Hearts
Delko's house, late night
Speed: *flips channel*
Katie: Boring.
Speed: *flips channel*
Katie: Stupid.
Speed: *flips channel*
Katie: Porn.
Speed: *flips channel*
Katie: Crime show.
Speed: *flips channel*
Katie: I didn't say you could switch.
Speed: You don't have the remote.
Katie: Look it's like two in the morning and there isn't anything on so just pick something.
Speed: I'm trying but you don't like any of the channels.
Katie: You switch too fast, I can't see what they are.
Speed: You're calling out what they are before I get there.
Katie: That's because I know what cable Eric gets.
Speed: Good for Eric.
Katie: *angry sigh*
Speed: What is your problem?
Katie: You're being annoying.
Speed: I'm just doing what you're telling me to.
Katie: Well you're annoying. Do something else.
Speed: Like what? Click the back of the remote so the batteries fall around?
Katie: NO! That's even worse.
Speed: Well I'm sorry your majesty I'll try and be less annoying.
10 minutes later
Katie: UGH!
Speed: What!
Katie: Stop breathing like that!
Speed: I'm just breathing normally.
Katie: And it's annoying.
Speed: *rolls eyes*
Katie: Don't roll your eyes at me.
Speed: Fine.
5 minutes later
Katie: ...UGH!
Speed: *sigh* What now.
Katie: Would it kill you to shave ONCE in your life? You look like a friggin' pirate! And don't even get me started on that shirt with those pants.
Speed: *frowns*
Katie: STOP BEING GAY!
Speed: *gets up*
Katie: Where are you going?
Speed: Bed.
Katie: We were having a conversation.
Speed: No. You were having a conversation, I was sitting there quietly.
Katie: Would it kill you to participate once in a while?
Speed: Goodnight.
Katie: *stands* No. We're still talking.
Speed:
We're not doing anything.
You are talking.
Katie: Yeah and I wasn't finished.
Speed: Fine. *crosses arms* Go ahead.
Katie: Everything you do irritates me. The way you walk, the way you eat, the way you sleep, the way you breathe, the way you do EVERYTHING! IT'S ALWAYS ABOUT YOU AND YOUR STUPID PROBLEMS! WELL MAYBE I HAVE SOME!
Speed: *stares at Katie*
Katie: Maybe I don't want to sit with you EVERYWHERE we go. Maybe I don't want to be the one being ditched everytime you have a breakdown. Everytime we're together you get taken away and I'VE HAD ENOUGH! STOP LEAVING ME!
Speed: *lifts brow*
Katie: SAY SOMETHING!
Speed: I'm afraid it would irritate you.
Katie: UGH! And I've had enough of that sarcasm crap. Just say it like it is and BE DONE WITH IT!
Delko: *walks downstairs* Is there something wrong down here?
Katie: GET BACK UPSTAIRS BEFORE I RIP YOUR EYES OUT OF THEIR SOCKETS!
Delko: ....*backs up slowly*
Katie: *walks closer* YOU THINK YOU KNOW EVERYTHING! WELL YOU DON'T!
Speed: ...Okay.
Katie: YOU'RE SO ANNOYING! Maybe next time you can friggin' get pregnant and then YELL AT ME FOR A WHILE!
Speed: *walks up, hugs Katie*
Katie: *starts crying* I'm sorry.
Speed: It's okay.
Katie: I just have my mind on a lot of things right now.
Speed: I know.
Katie: Thank you.
Speed: You can yell at me whenever you want.
Katie: I would like that.
Speed: Now, did you want anything? Something to drink or something? *lets go*
Katie: *wipes eyes* ...Water?
Speed: I'll get you some. Go upstairs and I'll be right up.
Katie: Okay. *walks upstairs*
Delko: *walks downstairs* Whoa, what was that about?
Speed: *grabs cup* It's a woman thing.
Delko: So are you two alright?
Speed: Yeah we're fine.
Delko: You're not fighting?
Speed: That wasn't a fight. The last time we had a fight, she pointed a gun in my face.
Delko: Ouch.
Speed: It wasn't loaded.
Delko: Good thing.
Speed: Yeah.
Delko: You know uh...At the lab and everything, we sort of missed you around.
Speed: I wasn't gone that long.
Delko: Still...I mean Calleigh and I were actually fighting.
Speed: Calleigh never gets mad.
Delko: She missed you.
Speed: Yeah.
Delko: No, I mean
missed you.
Speed: What are you talking about?
Delko: She didn't want to say anything because well...You're married and everything.
Speed: Are you kidding me?
Delko: Hey man, that's what she told me.
Speed: Maybe you heard wrong.
Delko: *laughs* No way. She's
obsessed with you.
Speed: ...I think you dreamed this.
Delko: She's been depressed since you left and now that you're back sh-
Speed: I'm not back.
Delko: Well now that you're in Miami, she's been chipper, bubbly, and just...Herself.
Speed: That doesn't mean she's obsessed with me.
Delko: Well between you and me, I think she likes unattainable guys.
Speed: Good for her.
Delko: Oh come on, if this was...Three years ago, you would jump at the chance to just work with her.
Speed: She's a better conversationalist than you.
Delko: She also looks better in a short skirt and heels.
Speed: I don't even want to picture you in a short skirt and heels.
Delko: See?
Speed: That doesn't prove anything.
Delko: Didn't you have this huge crush on her a while back?
Speed: Yes and that was a very, very long time ago.
Delko: It wasn't that long.
Speed: She had Hagen, what was I going to do? Stalk her?
Delko: Where were you when she broke up with him?
Speed: I wasn't going to just jump in.
Delko: You should have.
Speed: Yeah and then I probably wouldn't have married Katie.
Delko: And that's a bad thing?
Speed: *frowns* Yeah.
Delko: I'm just sayin'...I mean, Calleigh she's....
Speed: ...What?
Delko: She's totally...Crazy about you.
Speed: You had better hope you're wrong.
Delko: I hope I'm wrong too.
Speed: Good, so you can go into work tomorrow and tell her she doesn't have a chance.
Delko: ...Not even a little one?
Speed: I'm going to be a father soon, so no. She doesn't have the slightest chance in
hell.
Delko: So should I write that down or something?
Speed: You'll figure out something to say to her. *walks upstairs*
Delko: ...Whatever you say.
