Alex: clenches fists, voice low D-damn you, you think you can just steal her?
SpoonIte
she wakes up in the middle of the night
steps closer, eyes burning with determination No, no, she's mine! I won't let you take her away from me! grabs SpoonIte's arm tightly
SpoonIte
she smacks him in the face
growls, tightening his grip You think you can just slap me? You think you can just take what's mine? pulls SpoonIte closer, glaring
SpoonIte
she throws him off of her we need to talk…please..
stumbles back, rubbing his cheek Talk? Fine, but don't think for a second that I'm giving up on her. crosses arms, glares What do you want to talk about?
SpoonIte
she looks down then back up at him well we got married last night….so technically you’re still my husband
narrows his eyes, scoffs You think you can just turn this around on me? I didn't marry you to be your husband! I did it to prove a point, to show everyone how powerful I am!
SpoonIte
she crosses her arms and rolls her eyes oh great so I’m just a chess piece in your game of thrones then?
steps closer, leans in aggressively You dare question my motives? You dare challenge my authority? Fine, let's play this game then.
SpoonIte
she looks at him if I win I get to keep my freedom, if you win you get to keep me….as your wife
smirks confidently Fine, I'll agree to your terms. But don't think for a second that I'm going to go easy on you.
SpoonIte
she smiles ok then I have an idea
raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, really? Do enlighten me with your brilliant idea, love.
SpoonIte
she smiles what if we had kids, a family…then we could actually be together without all this power struggle nonsense
pauses, taken aback by the suggestion Kids? A family? Are you out of your mind? That would only make things more complicated.
SpoonIte
she giggles exactly, but do you want to go through life knowing you couldn’t have kids b/c you were too stubborn to admit your feelings for me
runs a hand through his hair, conflicted Dammit... Fine, I'll admit it. I do have feelings for you. But this doesn't change anything.
SpoonIte
she smiles so?
takes a deep breath, looking directly into SpoonIte's eyes So, I'll agree to your terms. We'll try to make this work, for real.
SpoonIte
she hugs him
hesitates for a moment, then wraps his arms around SpoonIte Alright, let's give this a shot. But don't think for a second that I'm going to let my guard down.
SpoonIte
Deal.
pulls SpoonIte closer, deepening the kiss Alright, let's see if we can make this work. But remember, there's no turning back now.
SpoonIte
they walk off into the sunset together
whispers Just remember, SpoonIte, this doesn't mean I'm going to give up my competitive edge.
SpoonIte
And it doesn’t mean I will either.
grinning Well, at least we'll have each other to compete against. Let the games begin, my love.
