Sarcasm and Lies

"I… Nick… What are you doing here?"

"Well I live here... technically I'm dying here but what's the difference..."

--If you're not used to it by now then get used to it, and quickly...

Uhmm || Open

"How do you get lost in a house?"

"Alright then… As a doctor it’s just natural to be worried."

"Let's just enjoy today without any worries?"

"I am not… I am not babying you. I just… Alright I think you are right. I know you don’t need more treatments and what not. I just want you to be alright."

I know you just care, Vince. I appreciate it... really I do, but I'll be okay. I promise.

He was suddenly concerned when he saw that Nick pinched his nose.

{Nicolas waved Vincent off and straightened himself.}

"Of course, change is great. Something different everyday keeps the mind clear and more excited. Which ones do you want to see?"

{It was as if a sudden fit of exhaustion overcame Nicolas. He was literally fighting to not let it affect him as he absently pinches at the bridge of his nose.}

Vincent chuckled and gave his brother a squeeze.

Oh... I thought... never mind. I just thought it would be nice. Something different for a change...

"Yeah come on let’s go."

{Nicolas looked over at Vincent as he took him around the shoulders and smiled.}

I didn’t say anything. I am not feeling guilty, why would I feel guilty?

Mmmhm... Sure okay. So let's get going then.

I am…

That’s where you are wrong, you do need me. I am your only friend.

I thought you were leaving? And no I don't need friends... Friends only leave vulnerability and chances of being disappointed.

"How do you know about that? There isn’t anything going on I just want to spend time with you… And then later Nate."

Because I make it my business to know everything about you. I also know you well enough to know when you're feeling guilty. It's a failure isn't it?

DON’T touch me… Don’t. I am not overreacting. I am being realistic.

{Nicolas let go instantly at the ferocity in her words and just stared at her.}

Really he was calling him mom?

Nicky? You haven't called me that since... What's really going on Vince? Is it about that cure you were working on?

And here I thought that you could actually have a heart. Guess I was wrong about you and everyone else was right.

Kat... you're overreacting. Stop it...

Really? Well then I think that’s a brilliant idea.

Nicolas raised an eyebrow and shook his head.}
