Stephs a baby. Ash is done.

Alexithymiaa: -Steph paced the kitchen with her phone pressed to her ear, listening to the voice on the other end. "And is it a day rate, or hourly?" She paused, turning to pull open a drawer and grab a pad and a pen, scribbling a few numbers down onto it. "Oh, great. Oh course. And everything is there already." She turned and walked back across the kitchen, deliberately stepping over Harvey who was also pacing and following her because she was in the kitchen and that means food.-
Musik: -Ash walked down the stairs, scratching at his fuzzy jaw as he looked at Steph. He walked over to the couch and picked up Smoke, cuddling the cat.-
Alexithymiaa: -She paused and planted her hand on the counter for support, nudging Harvey away with the toe of her shoe. "Great. I will see you there tomorrow morning then." She smiled moreso to herself, pulling the phone away from her ear and ending the call. She glanced over at Ash and then turned to look down at her pad and the numbers she'd printed on it.-
Musik: "Who was that?" -He asked flatly.-
Alexithymiaa: -She turned back to face him, leaning backward on the counter. "This... producer guy. Coach Walsh referred him."-
Musik: "Producer? Producer for what?" -He asked furrowing his brows.-
AlexithymiaaAlexithymiaa : "For some game." She gave a casual shrug, turning to lift her hands up to open the cabinet, pulling down the bag of cat food since Harvey was relentless. "They're doing mocap stuff for it. It's like a Summer olympics game or something."-
Musik: "Ahhhh..Sounds cool." -He said dropping down to the couch to pick up the remote, turning the tv on
Alexithymiaa: "Twenty five hundred dollars for the day." She spoke in monotone, not turning to look at him as she filled the cat bowl with food and leaned up to replace the bag in the cabinet.-
Musik: "Woah..That's..expensive." -He said flipping through channels.-
Alexithymiaa: "Good thing I get to benefit then, hmm?" She asked casually, turning to the sink and turning it on, picking up the sponge and beginning to wipe it down since she'd probably done all the dishes before the call came in.-
Musik: "Yeah good thing." -He said landing on a lame show.-
Alexithymiaa: -She chewed on the inside of her cheek, tossing the sponge down into the sink and turning off the water. She planted her hands on either side of the sink, staring down into it because frustration.-
Musik: -He ran his hand over Smoke's bdoy as he stared at the tv, complete silence washing over the room besides the tv obviously.-
Alexithymiaa: -She stared down into the sink for a long moment before turning to face him from the kitchen. "I'm going to rescind our offer on the house."-
Musik: "Uhh.. No you're not?" -He said furrowing his brows, turning to look at her.-
Alexithymiaa: "Yes... I am." She sighed, sweeping her hair back from her face. "It doesn't feel like you're going to want anything to do with me really soon. You're so..." She trailed off, trying to pick her words. "Distant. I don't know what I can do, but I don't want to walk into this with you and then have to scramble to pick up the pieces later when you tell me you can never forgive me."-
Musik: "Steph..Seriously? it's fine. If I was going to be done with you I'd already be done. I just have to fucking figure out where I stand with you, obviously. But we're getting the house. We're doing it. End of discussion."
Alexithymiaa: "Where you stand with ME?" She gawked, blinking several times. "Ash, you stand in the exact same place you did before any of this. I told you I didnt think any lesser of you having known any of the stuff I do now. Nothing changed other than not feeling like there's ane entire side to you I've been kept in the dark about. Nothing Ronnie said was going to change how I felt about you or us or our situation. Our plans... nothing."-
Musik: "Not that, Steph. Where I stand with you on the aspect of you didn't respect me enough to go behind my back to my friend. You obviously have very little respect for me or what I wanted to keep private."
Alexithymiaa: "Actually, I think if anything it shows how much respect for you I do have because I wasn't going to push you into talking about something that very obviously made you uncomfortable. I didn't want to do that to you."-
Musik: "No of course not. You just went behind my back." -He snapped slightly clenching his jaw.-
Alexithymiaa: "Stop!" She shot back, leaning forward slightly. "How do you not see how incredibly worried about you I was? I went behind your back because it hurt so much to see how you would get when it was brought up at all. I wanted to be able to help you, to be there for you. I didn't do it just to be a dick, Ash. I did it because I fucking care about you."-
Musik: "But you can't fucking help me, Stephanie!" -He shouted pushing up to his feet letting the cat drop onto the couch.- "I didn't need you to fucking help you, nor did I want you to. I can handle shit on my own. I don't need to be watched over. You care about me? GOOD you're supposed to. But I don't need a fucking babysitter, okay? I dind't want you to know, you should've repsected that but you didn't. And you made my bestfriend of fucking years disrepect me too so good fuckin job."
Alexithymiaa: -She inhaled sharply, curling her hands into fists at her sides. "I'm not trying to be your babysitter, I'm trying to be there for you. Like you've been there for me when I needed you. I want to give you everything you deserve. I wanted to.." She stopped, swallowing hard and shaking her head. "Nevermind. You dont care about anything other than the bottom line." She walked passed him, moving into the bathroom and shutting the door behind her, locking it and resting her forehead against the door.-
Musik: "Only because you fucking crossed the bottom line!" -He snapped as she walked passed him. He clenched his jaw and moved to pace around the living room, just getting angrier.-
Alexithymiaa: -She thrust the door open, poking her head out as she yelled. "For good reason! Something you apparently will NEVER understand!" She slammed the door closed.-
Musik: "No you're right! I don't understand. Because apparently I can't keep anything fucking private in this relationship! And you won't ever understand why I'm so fucking mad!" -He snapped at her.- "Y'know, maybe you should take back our offer. I'll sign a new lease, and you can find your own apartment." -He said staring at the door before moving to walk up the stairs to the loft.-
Alexithymiaa: -She pulled the door open again, yelling at his back. "So that's it? You're done then? Tell me now because I need to give them a fucking answer and I'd like to know now if I have to lay out the money to pay the fee."-
Musik: "Yup. That's it. Because you're a disrepectful pain in my ass. I've done fucking everything for you and to help you and you couldn't respect ONE FUCKING THING I asked you to drop. So why should I buy a house with someone like that? I'll pay the fee don't worry about it." -He said opening his laptop turning it on.-
Alexithymiaa: "Excuse you?" She shouted, storming out of the bathroom and up the stairs to the loft. She immediately turned to the wardrobe, pulling her clothes off the hangers to fold them, but she was just throwing them on the bed after she folded them so that was dumb. "If I'm such a pain in your ass why have you bothered to put up with me for this long? I'm SO sorry that I'm such a fucking burden to you! You should have just let me fucking jump!" She yelled, throwing a handful of hangers across the room at him.-
Musik: "Because I don't want you to fucking die, Steph. But jesus you don't respect me. So.." -She shrugged.-
Alexithymiaa: "I do too respect you!" She throw another hanger at him which is ironic because bitch what the fuck are you doing. "You clearly don't know ANYTHING. You only see things from your point of view!" -
Musik: "Quit throwing shit at me!" -He snapped grabbing a hanger to throw it back at her, not using all his force because if he did that that shit would hurt. He glared at her and turned back to the computer, now ignoring her.-
Alexithymiaa: "Quit being so closed minded!" She yelled, turning away when the hanger came back at her. She stalked over to the bed and picked up a few of the things she'd tossed onto it, throwing those at him as well.-
Musik: -He took a sharp breath and just stared at the computer.-
Alexithymiaa: "The only thing you fucking care about is that now I know your secret. OH NO. Tragic!" She yelled, picking up her backpack from the floor and shoving some of the clothes into it. "You should be relieved that you don't have to keep it from me anymore! It should be weight off your shoulders!" And ironically pulled her textbook from inside the backpack, throwing it at his back.-
Musik: -Once the book hit his back he shoved up to his feet and got right into her face.- "We're done!" -He snapped, grinding his teeth together. He stepped back and pointed to the stairs.- "I want you out."
Alexithymiaa: -She flinched when he got in her face, turning her face away and squeezing her eyes shut because she'd half expected him to hit her even though that's never fucking happened before you dumb bitch. She swallowed hard and opened her eyes, looking up into his face and saying nothing.-
Musik: "If you don't leave I will. And this is my apartment." -He said staring at her.-
Alexithymiaa: "Went from our apartment to your apartment pretty quickly..." She said in a small voice, turning away from him. She left her half packed bag on the bed, taking the steps down to the first floor and walking to the door. Without bothering to put her shoes on, or her fucking jacket, or basically take any of her shit, she pulled the door open, stepping out into the hallway and closing it quietly behind her.-
Musik: -He sighed and moved to shove her bag off the bed, dropping down onto it to just pout like a baby.-
