[[ i have a feeling this thread is going to die ]]

[Logan Andrews]

(it's already dying...*sadness*)

[Riley Pearson]

[ *joins in having sadness* ]

[Arden Patricks]

((Neither of you have to have sadness if Matt gets some sleep and then is able to answer this thread... no pressure though.))

[Logan Andrews]

(ahhhhhhhhhhhh!)

[Arden Patricks]

(( ;D ))

[Riley Pearson]

[[ you can do it, matt! ]]

[Logan Andrews]

(fine, fine. you both suck though. )

I suppose I'd sort of assumed that if I was going to eavesdrop, which I may or may now have been, then it might have been a bit harder. As it is, they don't seem to lower their voices much at all, or maybe they've forgotten I'm here. I barely have to strain to hear anything at all.
Most of it is just faintly amusing, in that way where I probably shouldn't find it amusing at all but it somehow is anyway.
I think I give up and start grinning about the time where he says that if I touch her, he can't guarantee anything. I won't touch her, but still what would he do? I could get to him before he turned me in, I could stop him. He wouldn't stand a chance.
No. Wrong.
Yes, wrong. That's not a good thing to think because otherwise it'll give me justification and justification is just one step away from temptation, and I've never been very good at ignoring that. My self-control leaves a little to be desired, I suppose.
And then there's that overpowering urge again, when he asks to hug her. The one where I want to tell him to get his hands off and fuck off already. But I can't do that either, because Arden is here. Although, I suppose I can make a non-violent protest by just happening to interrupt.
I get to my feet but sort of stop in the doorway, because I wasn't really prepared for how I would interrupt in the first place, so I just sort of end up standing there hesitantly and wishing that I could actually do something to hurt him.

[Arden Patricks]

(( ;D Ah, maybe so, but you yourself are lovely and it all balances out.))

I still have no idea what the hell Riley and I are, or what's going on exactly. But it just seems automatic when I hug him back to lean up and kiss him on the cheek. Which is innocent enough by most people's standards, of course, but incredibly awkward to be caught at by Logan... for some reason.
Actually, I'm no sure why that is. It might be amusing to be caught out by Fitzy, for example, who's the closest comparison I can think of. So why exactly it's awkward in this case I don't know.

[Riley Pearson]

[[ exactly! *agrees with Jennie completely* ;D ]]

I kept the smile on my lips as I hugged her and when she kissed my cheek, I smiled faintly more and kissed hers lightly back. I hadn't noticed Logan come and stand in the doorway. My back was facing the door at the time, since I had turned to hug Arden, so instead of pulling away probably fairly quickly, I hugged her for a few more moments before letting go.

[Logan Andrews]

(lol...uh, thanks?)

"Oh, don't stop on my account." I remark casually, as I sort of move around them towards the sink. I've deciding during the few seconds pause while I was standing in the doorway that getting a drink of water is a feasible reason for coming in here, rather than just because I want to break this up.
I have a sudden and very immature urge to kick him on my way past, and sort of entertain myself idly with this for a moment even though I won't actually do it.

[Arden Patricks]

I cough very slightly in a 'my, this is awkward' way, pulling away from Riley and crossing my arms. But then I have to raise my eyebrows at Logan, because really that was kind of immature.

[Riley Pearson]

I bit my lip slightly, glancing at Logan and then down to the floor for a second. This is awkward... and now I really didn't know what to say. I glanced over to Arden before leaning against the counter, putting my hands in my pockets.

[Logan Andrews]

I shrug idly, sort of in response to Arden's raising her eyebrows and sort of because no one's said anything or really done much so I feel that I should.
I grin when I turn my back to fill up a glass at the tap, because although I'm still quite annoyed, I haven't been this amused in quite a while. I guess immaturity isn't as overrated as I thought.

[Arden Patricks]

I feel like somebody really should say something now, but I can't for the life of me think what it could be. Unless I just completely change the subject... not that there is one.
"So... um...."
Or maybe I'll just stay silent and go find my piece of paper again so I can stare at it. God, this is awkward.
Did you do that on purpose? I think suddenly, looking at Logan.

[Riley Pearson]

I looked over to Arden when she spoke and shrugged slightly. Why did I have to be so terrible at making conversation? Because this was awkward and right now I would really love if I could think of something to talk about.
But honestly, I wasn't very comfortable around Logan and having him being in here was just limiting the thing I could say even more. ".. Don't really have anything to talk about.." I said lamely after a moment or two.

[Logan Andrews]

"What?" I say as Arden looks toward me.
I think I'm just going to pretend that he's not here, and that he hasn't spoken, just in case he hasn't gotten the idea already that he's really quite low in my estimation.

[Arden Patricks]

I laugh very slightly at what Riley says, and have the thought that the main reason it's awkward is that we all know it is. But then I shrug at Logan, seizing on the fact that this is something to actually respond to and thank god for that.
"Nothing in particular. Can I ask, though, why the hell he's even here? I mean did you just break in -" This last bit directed at Riley before looking back at Logan. "- or've you already started to go a bit insane?"

[Riley Pearson]

I raised my eyebrows slightly at what Arden's said and shook my head a little bit at the part of the question she directed towards me. "I didn't break in." I said shaking my head with a small laugh. "He answered the door and let me in." I shrugged, looking from Arden over to Logan.

[Logan Andrews]

I nod at what he's said, frowning briefly because no I have not gone a bit insane.
"Yeah, let him in. Seemed like a good idea at the time."
I'm not going to admit that I let him in because maybe I was starting to go a bit insane with being on my own and thought that anything would be better than that. I'm especially not going to admit it when he's here.

[Arden Patricks]

I felt kind of like I was scolding a child when I said that, but after his response I'm not sure that's inaccurate.
"Excellent idea," I nod, after closing my eyes briefly in exasperation. "Always very brilliant, when you're a fugitive, to let people in to your hideout that you don't even know."

[Riley Pearson]

I listened to what Arden said and really thought that for the moment, I should stay quiet and just let her talk him. I didn't think I should get involved in this small conversation.

[Logan Andrews]

I scowl a little bit at that because I feel like I'm being reprimanded, but scowling probably just makes it worse and likens this more to being scolded.
"Well..." I stop speaking because I don't really have a defense. "It doesn't matter, because he's not going to turn me in anyway." I spare a brief throwaway glance in Riley's direction, because it seems only fair.

[Arden Patricks]

"Which is very much like saying, 'oh, it doesn't matter that I just jumped off the roof, because I magically didn't break any bones when by all rights I should have," I retort, rolling my eyes and reinforcing the whole scolding, mothery feeling once again. I feel like I'm talking to Micheal.

[Riley Pearson]

I bit my lip a little bit, pausing for a couple moments after Arden spoke. "... But the point is, I'm not turning him in and no one else saw him." I said with a small shrug. "All you have to do is not answer the door anymore." I added looking over to Logan, directing that statement toward him. Really, that was pretty obvious, but with Arden here, I wasn't so worried about what I said around him.

[Logan Andrews]

My brow furrows slightly at that, and I glance at him again but properly this time and with more force behind it.
But then I glance away again, albeit a little petulantly and sort of shrug. "Fine, no more answering the door. Got it."

[Arden Patricks]

"Or you can go ahead and let in whoever you please, just as long as you don't mind getting caught," I mutter, shrugging.
That was probably unnecessary, but I'm starting to get the feeling that I'm ticked, even if I've no idea why.

[Riley Pearson]

I didn't know what I could add to that, or even if I should add anything. Which is why I stayed quiet again. I do know, however, that I wish I had something to do with myself and I was wondering why I came over here in the first place.

[Logan Andrews]

I clench my teeth at that to stop myself from replying.
I don't know what I would reply to that anyway, but I'm sure it wouldn't be pleasant.
I cross my arms across my chest, leaning up against the counter and staring hard at the floor instead.
I'm not going to leave of course if I've already gone to so much trouble to impose my presence on them, but I don't think I'm going to talk anymore either because I'll probably just end up getting scolded again.
And with good reason, probably, because I've just realised how very childish that whole thought process was.

[Arden Patricks]

I let out a sigh after a moment when neither of them says anything, shrugging as well. i wish I could at least figure out where the snappishness came from... although maybe it's just simple annoyance that I'm trying to help protect the idiot and then he goes and does something like this that could very well have gotten us both is trouble.
