It was as if she lived to make people feel awful about themselves. Nothing and no one was good enough for Selina Arden Skylar.
"Stop. Throwing your little tantrums isn't going to do a thing for you either. Just because you're hot headed doesn't give you the right to be so awful to people any time something upsets you. I'm beyond sorry about what happened, but it's done Selina. You're probably too proud to accept an apology anyway." As she told him to bugger off, he turned to leave, glad to get away from her. However, he froze where he was when she brought up Violet and Cass. She really hadn't changed.
Spinning back around, Christopher was growing livid, but he tried his best to stay reserved. "Look, I don't know what your problem is. I know you're upset about....her, but I am too. We ALL are. But any time I ever do something to make you mad, you always bring up Cassandra. She is one of my best friends, and you always make it a point to attack her! You don't know anything about her or our relationship, and I'd kindly like to ask you to leave her out of things, please." Seriously.
Tantrum? This was not a tantrum. If he wanted a tantrum she would give him a bloody tantrum. All she wanted to do was have him go away but his aptitude at picking up a hint was zero. Did she have to sit here and listen to his crud, because she honestly did not want to listen to his nonsense. Her blue eyes narrowed at him with the tantrum comment. For an older man now he was sure acting like a five year old. Hell, his sister had died and he was seemingly unchanged. He only cared when it was appropriate.
And then he said that she was too proud... Wrong thing to say. She, without thought, pushed him back away from her. She did not want him anywhere near her and if he didn't take the hint she would walk away from him until he got the hint she did not want to see him. That was why she had spent all term blowing him off.
"You know what Chris, I'm sorry the bloody world didn't stop when you led, but I'm not the same person you left behind. A lot happened to me and I feel like I am more mature now than I was when you left. I don't really explode on people anymore but you just got lucky I guess because I haven't spoken to you in over a year. And how about this, jerk? I would have accepted your apology. And I WILL bring her into this! Because you always do."
