Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 12:46 amDerek answered the door a minute later, brightening considerably when he saw who was there. "Chloe! Is something wrong with your phone? I've been trying to call you."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 12:56 am"I turned it off." Chloe said shortly "I came to get some things, may I come in?"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 12:57 amDerek looked like he'd been slapped by her tone. "What? Chlo, what's wrong?" he asked, confused, though he did let her in.
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 1:28 am"Nothing is wrong." Chloe said "I won't be sleeping here anymore, so I thought I'd get the extra clothes and so on."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 1:55 am"What!?" Derek said, completely flabbergasted. "What the... why!? Chloe, what the hell's going on?"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 2:06 am"Unless you've changed your mind about sleeping with an animal." Chloe said tartly.
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 2:09 am"What the hell are you- Chloe, did someone steal my cell phone or something while I was at work, because I think I missed a conversation here."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 2:30 am"Oh please." Chloe said "You've always hated me being a shifter, and the other night was just the final straw for me."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 2:36 am"What!? Chloe, I'm not going to lie, I have NO IDEA what you're talking about!"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 2:42 am"The other night. When I came into your room. And you pushed me away."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 2:43 am"You were flapping around the room and I pushed you off my homework! So?"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 2:53 am"So you'd never have done that if I'd been in this shape." Chloe said "And then you get freaked out when I decide to perch instead of having cold feet on me all night."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 2:58 am"So I want you in bed, what's the big goddamn deal? Wouldn't you start getting weirded out if I just went and slept on the couch for no reason?"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 10:38 am"I have a bloody reason." Chloe said "Its your bloody icy feet. And I'm not leaving, I'm just perching on the headboard."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 3:10 pm"Right, instead of asking me to put socks on. THat totally makes more sense," Derek shot back.
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 3:23 pm"Its simpler for me to just shift!"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 3:39 pm"Right. ANd it's not supposed to bug me that it's easier for you to just shove me away than ask me to put on socks."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 11:31 pm"I'm not shoving you away!" Chloe said "I'm right there, by your bloody stupid head. All you have to do is reach up and there I am. But it doesn't count, since you only like me when I have boobs."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 11:57 pm"Okay, seriously Chloe, you spend fucking weeks going on about how people who like you being a shifter freak you the fuck out, and then you expect me to be all cozy with you when you're shifted? Am I the only one seeing a fucking double standard here?!"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Tue Feb 26, 2013 12:35 am"Its totally different!" Chloe said "It'd be creepy if that was why you wanted to be with me, yeah. But that doesn't mean that I want you to reject that part of me."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Tue Feb 26, 2013 12:42 am"I'm not! For fuck's sake, I was just trying to do my homework! You know, so we could spend time together, like we were planning and then didn't do because you had something better to do?"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Tue Feb 26, 2013 1:05 am"And you couldn't take a minute to say hello? Seriously, just tell me that you don't like it that I'm a freak."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Tue Feb 26, 2013 1:25 am"I was waiting for you to turn human! Yes, I wait until you turn back, because it's hard to understand you when you're a bird!"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Tue Feb 26, 2013 1:38 am"I can speak perfectly plainly!"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Tue Feb 26, 2013 1:45 am"Yeah, and I can't read you when you're a bird! Yeah you can talk, but I don't get any tone, any inflection, any emotion, I can't read your body language, I can't tell where to touch you, how hard, it doesn't bug me at all when you're a bird I just don't get it! I'm trained deal with the human body, so yes, that's what I understand!"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Tue Feb 26, 2013 1:48 am"Why didn't you tell me that!" Chloe said "I would have been glad to teach you. But no, easier to treat me like an animal."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Tue Feb 26, 2013 1:52 am"Well why don't you tell me to put on socks! I'd do that in a second, but it's easier to fucking tease me and watch me sleep alone!"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Tue Feb 26, 2013 5:20 pm"How am I teasing you?" Chloe asked "And you aren't sleeping alone, I'm right there."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Tue Feb 26, 2013 5:25 pm"Okay seriously, that's like saying 'you aren't sleeping alone, I'll be out on the couch,' except without any 'me being able to go fix whatever I did to piss you off.'"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Tue Feb 26, 2013 5:57 pm"Its still the same bloody bed!"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Wed Feb 27, 2013 1:04 am"Yeah, except I don't sleep on the headboard. And being 'in bed' with my girlfriend, to me and I'm pretty sure to most people, means actually in the bed. And yeah, that does kind of mean in a shape where I won't crush you if I roll over in my sleep."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Wed Feb 27, 2013 1:11 am"See! You even admit it that you only like me in this shape."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Wed Feb 27, 2013 1:45 am"For fuck's sake, Chloe, yes, I like you being able to touch me with skin. I'm human, it's what we're conditioned to like."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Wed Feb 27, 2013 2:06 am"I"m human too!" Chloe said "But feathers feel nice. Why won't you give it a chance?"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Wed Feb 27, 2013 2:15 am"I would, but you said you got freaked out by people who were into it!"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Wed Feb 27, 2013 3:17 pm"There is a difference between accepting someone you love for who they are and asking someone out because they can turn into a bird!"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Thu Feb 28, 2013 12:43 am"You spent fucking weeks going on that I must be some furry-chaser because I wanted to be with you! DO you think I wanted to go back to that!?"
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Thu Feb 28, 2013 12:53 am"And now I know you're not. So it'd be ok. Except your the opposite."
Re: Chloe wanna stab.
Posted: Thu Feb 28, 2013 2:10 am"I am- GAH! Fine. You know what? Fine. You're not going to listen to me, you've made up your mind... fine. It's all in your drawer," he said, turning around and heading to the couch. Dammit, dammit, dammit...
