"Which was what darling? Come to you and question you about it? Because there was no question if I was going to do that. Insult my .. 'more than a friend' and I'm expected to, aren't I? I'm being a good 'more than a friend'." And then Jack scowled again, almost growled in fact because of Callie's little fake vomit. She kept going on about how a great best friend she was, but maybe Jack was to question that also? Best friends, even if they hated the person you were more than friends with, they tried the best; Callie wasn't playing the game, she wasn't trying. "Well I'm not angry, I'm disappointed. I thought you would be over the petty cat fights, without the claws of course." Jack smirked again, looking at his nails. "If she was trying to make me get rid of you as a friend, then that's silly of her. But, I doubt she would think she could just swoop in and do so. Not very much thought and careful planning in that, is there?"
Jack found it amusing how Callie attempted to try and make 'knight in shining armour' seem like a terrible thing to be, it obviously annoyed her as she has probably expected him to be disgusted by the idea of him being one. But really, a knight is noble, armour is bravery and the sign of a fighter, and shinyness means clean and ... stuff. So really, these were all things that made your ego just that little bit bigger. Jack didn't need that, but he still loved the idea of it; anything to feed his vanity. "Oh love, trying to sell it as horrid? You shouldn't have brought it up. I want to buy metal armour now." He laughed lightly, trying to lighten the mood. It had seemed to get harder the longer he was with her to be honest, and that was never a good sign.
And there she went again; kicking him whilst he was down.
"My life? Boring? THOSE words should not be put into the same sentence." He scowled, beginning to stand up again. "Look, I don't know what's got into you and this whole Cosette stuff. I didn't come over to you to talk about her, at all." He exhaled deeply, and rubbed his forehead. "Me and Rhea are ..." Pause. "... okay? I don't care if you accept it or not, you're not my mother and even if you were I still wouldn't care." Fat lot that his mother could change. "And being a best friend isn't stirring someone else's life up because you're bored, and making your best friend feel like crap, even when he already does! I mean ... this is a big thing for me. I really don't do relationships. And I was just hoping for a little bit of optimism, just from someone." Boy, was he tired. Jack was stood up properly now. Hands balled into fists and his knuckles white. "Hoping it would be you. Obviously not the case."
How ? Okay. Jack was difficult. Most people would just be all like fine fine fine, but yeah Jack was
awesome just so Jackish so she should've expected him wanting a explination.
"Well. Um. I um I dont know. I just know she does. I know people." Sorta, well not really. Callie was possibly the most unobservant person ever. She was too absorbed in her own importance to even think about other peoples needs and cares, unless they were hot then she gave them a leeettle bit more of her attention.
"Yes exactly that. Which you did. Which means your doing as she told you. Which makes you her minion." A word of which she'd borrowed
stolen from Oliver seen as he was convinced she was his minion. *eye roll* More than a friend ?
"I think you mean girlfriend, dearest." she smirked. She was pretty slow at catching onto things but the amounts of times Jack had edged around saying the word Girlfriend she'd kinda caught on that he didn't like that word. Something like that anyways.
"Disappointed ? Oh Jack give over. Stop trying to make me be all happy for you and Rhea because quite frankly I dont like the fact that your going out with her but yeah do whatever. Im just not gonna congratulate you. Y'know dont wanna jinx things." she winked. She had to admit there was a horrible feeling in the pit of her stomach, Jack probably was disapointed seen as he hadn't spoke highly of himself in the last ten minutes. So meh.
"And fyi, I dont need careful planning cus im just too cool."
So her attempt to put Jack off being Rhea's knight in shining armour wasn't her best. No, lets rephrase that it was a VEREH bad attempt, prolly her worst attempt ever. She looked down at the grass trying to think of something to say. She
should apologise really. Afterall she was the one that had got them into this mess, she was the one who'd told Rhea the truth with missing details, and she was the one who'd make Jack all disapointed in her and stuffs so yeah she
Should apologise, but was she going to ? Not a chance.
"Oh yes because Rhea will be totally more attracted to you if you're wearing a shining suit. And everyones gonna be falling all over you." she scoffed. Jack was cute she had to admit that but she was pretty sure people would laugh at him if he walked around dressed as a metal man.
"Yeah. Your life boring, And um newsflash they were just put into the same sentence." she smirked shooting him a wink. And now he was standing up. He couldn't stand up because that meant he was gonna walk away which he couldn't do because they were in the middle of an argument and yeah it needed to be finished or Callie wouldn't be right. And Callie was always right, with the ocasional gleams of wrongness.
"Got into me ? What about whats got into you ? And I didn't sit here to talk about Cosette either." she frowned, she didn't like this. Usually she loved aruging with people because they always came up with suckish comebacks, like Courtney did but Jack was obviously good at this.
"And I didn't say I didn't accept it anyways. So where'd you get that idea from." she stood up standing a few centimetres away from Jack, cus he looked angry and she didn't want him to punch her. That would just ruin the whole prettyness.
"I wasn't stirring up your life because I was bored, I was merely doing what I would usually do. And technially when I told Rhea you were in love with me she wasn't your girlfriend." Aww, he felt like crap before all this ? She moved next to him and wrapped her arms around him.
"I didn't mean to make you feel crap. I'm....sorry. Not for this whole Rhea business because its not my fault I didn't like her, for making you feel crap." sigh.
"And if it REALLY makes you happy.....Congratulations I hope you guys work out." BLEH.
"You so owe me. Wanna sit back down now ?" no way was she letting him walk away until they were done with this whole argument thing.
