"I'm not the one with the problem here. You don't see me going around trying to break you up with whatever guy you are dating now."
Oh, right. That explained everything. Not. "Oh. And how proud you must be that your little boyfriend is much too clever to attend classes." That was, of course, if this 'boyfriend' even existed.
Really? She was bringing that up. "How many times do I have to explain that and apologize before you let that go Marie?" he asked rubbing his forehead in frustration. "I told you I thought I was doing the right thing for you and Destiny. Can you really just not let that go?"
Wait. What? Carter opened and closed his mouth several times trying to think of a retort. However he just leaned against the wall and rubbed his temples with his hands. "Well you could have started with that!" he said exasperated. "How is it that after all this time you're still the only person that can give me a headache like this?" He leaned against the wall silent for a few seconds absorbing this news. "What is with your family and being ridiculously gorgeous?" he said throwing his hands in the air again. "And what are they feeding you at those family reunions?" And does your house elf have a sibling?
"Fine. Fine." he said standing up straight again. "Why don't you just tell me what's going on then? That way I won't have to guess and 'make you look like you're the one at fault.'" Yeah, except it was totally her fault.
Maybe then this conversation would be going somewhere.
"Do I look like someone who's kidding here?" If someone was to walk by right now they would think she looked more like someone who was ready to kill, not like someone who was kidding.
"How the hell should I know why you still fancy me. You're the one that keeps bringing this subject up, not me." Seriously, she had just been walking through the courtyard. He was the one that stopped her and started yelling at her.
"I DON"T have a problem Carter. It's obvious that you and Caroline have the problem. If me being myself breaks you two up then I guess you two don't have as strong a relationship as you think you do." If Caroline was secure in her relationship with Carter then no matter what Marie did or said the girl would know he wouldn't cheat on her. But obviously there was some sort of issue there or else this conversation wouldn't be happening.
Was Carter trying to get his nose broken with his stupid comments here or what? Stepping a little closer so she was a mere few inches from his face she started to yell back at him even more.
"Whatever guy I'm dating now? You make it sound like I change boyfriends on a weekly basis." Wow, she's had 3 boyfriends in two and a half years and Carter acts like she's had thirty.
"For your information, his name is Matty, and you couldn't break us up even if you tried. No matter what you say or do, nothing can come between us."
And the stupid comments just keep pouring out of his mouth.
"Not that it's any of YOUR business but I AM proud of him. It doesn't matter to me what classes he's in or if he chooses to skip a class." She wasn't with him because of the classes he was taking.
Again he was blaming her for bringing something up when it was him and his stupid comments that brought the subject up.
"You know, I HAVE let that go. It's YOU that keeps bringing it up again. It's always YOU bringing things up. What am I supposed to do... let you ramble on and not comment on what you say? I don't think so. If you don't like what I have to say then maybe you need to stop opening your mouth." Or maybe she should just shut it for him.
Well now, it seems Caroline wasn't so forth coming with telling Carter that her and Marie were cousins. Already keeping secrets from the boyfriend it seems.
"Yeah I COULD have started with that but why should I when Caroline didn't seem too bothered with letting you know we're related." It wasn't Marie's responsibility to tell her EX that he's dating her cousin.
"Really Carter. I'm the only one that ever gives you a headache? Then why is it that after all this time you're coming around me again? If I make your head hurt so damn bad why do you even bother with talking to me?"
STARE!
Is he serious here?
"I'm not even going to dignify that with a response. Why don't you ask Caroline those questions. I'm sure she would love to answer them for you." It was apparent that the only thing he was interested in was how good his girlfriend looked and to be honest, she didn't care anymore what he thought. All she wanted now was to get as far away from him as she could and it looked like there was only one way she was going to be able to shut him up... other than punching him in the mouth.
"You know what, you're right. Everything that has ever happened between us was all my fault. You were just the poor innocent victim here, the one that was misunderstood. You are a saint and I am nothing more than some horrible person who tries to ruin everyones lives. Now if you'll excuse me, I have someplace I need to be." She had long ago forgotten where it was that she had been heading but wherever it was she knew it had to be better than being where she was right now. She just wanted to get the hell away fro Carter Phillips.
She needed to find Matty.
That's who she wanted to be with right now.
