until B finally starts talking again
B Money doesn't matter to me
R (whispers) Obviously it does
B No it doesn't! Being taken advantage of matters to me
R Who is taking advantage of you?
B I don't, I don't, No one is taking advantage of me right now
R But why, but then why would you think that someone is going to take advantage of you in the future? and frankly, honestly, wouldn't you so much rather live and be happy for the time that you can and have someone take advantage of you then miss out because you think they are going to?
B Signing a prenup isn't going to, isn't going to make me think any less....
R interrupts Brendon, it does not have anything to do with a prenup
B Then why? I'm not...if I am in a relationship I am in a relationship I am not going to worry that someone is taking advantage of me. If I am going to get married to somebody, I am signing a prenup agreement! I mean if someone is with me while and we are poor together while I am doing a PHD I am sure I will not want to sign a prenup. But if I am going to come out of school after working my ass off for everything that I have, on my own, with no help from anyone and think that someone who tells me that they love me and everything and then 10 yrs down the line screws me over just because she thinks she knows the law that she can? I would be ....f'n .....devestated because I would feel like, that's....
R interrupts Who would do that? Like who, what girls are you dating? Cuz last time I checked the person that you are closest to...that you...say that you want to be with isn't like that at all!
B I don't think you are at all
R Sooo, thennn why are you so adament about arguing about prenup when it is affecting someone that you care about
B Okay I am sorry, I am sorry
R It's just stupid, it's just doesn't make sense. You're allowed to have opinions but you shouldn't enforce them and then shove them down someone's f'n throat
B Okay, okay. And I am sorry for that (whispers) I am sorry for that. I don't think that you would ever do that to me and I don't think that you are the type of person to do that
R (interrupts) I wouldn't do that to anyone
B And I don't think so! I don't! I don't think you would, no! And your definitely not like anyone I have ever dated before
R (whispers) please don't talk so loud
B Okay, but you know, this is how loud you talk, just so you know
R (very loud and very cocky) Well, I'm sorry1 I will not talk loud anymore
B gives her the oh, you are so adorable laugh and says "Come here, come here" while trying to hug her. He takes his hat off and begins to caress her face
B I didn't tell you that I love you because I thought it would help me get farther in the game
R Obviously! I am not really concerned about that
B Okay, I am just saying, yeah you're right, I don't always say the right things and I am sorry and I am sorry for not
R (interrupts) You should probably think more...about...
B I know, I should think more about you, you're right and I am sorry for not thinking about you. Okay, alright? and I promise, that is not just me trying to make you happy and avoid making you more angry
R I am really over arguing with you, like you don't understand, like I'm, I have to deal with the stress of having everyone coming after me, I have to deal with the stress of having to fight for my life everyday, and I am REALLY over arguing with you. We argued a lot lately and it's NOT ok and I am really over it. So if you don't want to stop arguing with me, then really, I don't know what I am going to do.
silence, and then B I am not arguing with you
R (pissed) YOU ARE arguing with me left and right brendon over stupid things
B sighs loudly turns away from R and asks "What else have I agrued about with you? i really don't know what I have argued with you about
R All the Andrew stuff, all the....
B That wasn't, I was just trying to tell you we can trust Andrew
R That is fine, but we don't need to argue about it
B Who says I was trying to argue about it
R Like, have you ever heard the term "pick your battles?" or the saying
B Yeah
R (whispers harshly) well then you really need to start doing that. silence, and then R cuz it's really starting to affect me!
Silence
B I am really not trying to argue with you
Extremely long pause
B I am not trying to argue with you, and in there I am sorry, I didn't think about you and I am sorry, I apologize for that, I do I am sorry. For other stuff for Andrew, I am trying my best and really trying to keep us together
R I understand there is a lot of pressure and that you are in a sh*tty situation, sleeping on a cot being a have not. I get that, it sucks. I understand that Brendon, but at the same token you really need to focus....on...like, huhh, I mean I really don't want to sit here and tell you what to focus on and what not to, but the way I feel is that I don't want to argue with you. You are the one person I want to come to for emotional support and for stability and for someone I know wouldnt' lie>
B That goes for both of us
R K well, you are the one person i want to come to and talk to and get a hug from (while she is saying this B leans over and caresses her face again) and a kiss from and be happy and I feel is going through the same situation that I am . And not have to worry about..um...stupid petty things like arguing with a 22 yr old about signing a prenup when the person you care about is sitting there next to you getting upset.
B I am sorry, i'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. You are like no one else that I have ever been with. I would never hold you to the same standards I would anyone else and if you were with me during my PHD I know I wouldn't have you sign a prenup
R (fustrated giggle) Brendon it has nothing to do with that stupid prenup
B I know, I know, I know, I know, okay (a bit of this is mumbled and too low to hear but I did catch) I love you, and I mean it. And so if you are upset with me that is going to be the hardest thing that I have to go through in this house. I don't give a sh*t about the game, it's important to me. But you are more important
R Well then start acting like it
B Okay, I am sorry
R And stop focusing on everything that is going wrong and start focusing on everything that is going right
B We are going right
R I kno! B leans his head in to hers and says "I want you to be my best friend okay? (R picks her head up over B to look in yard) where are you going?
R well best friends don't.... B I know, okay R lays back down next to him, he pulls her closer, sighs contently and kisses her
B Best friends don't always do everything perfect either
R I never said they did, I know that I am not stupid
B giggles and says "I know you're not else I wouldn't be with you. I am sorry, okay? long pause "you forgive me"
R whispers "yes" they kiss
B You are beautiful, you are amazing and I am so sorry that I didn't stop when you were gtting upset
B And I am sorry about getting in an argument with somebody about nothing
R (really cocky) ABOUT LOVE
B No, that was never about what it was
R (short) ok
B It was just hearing that from this girl that thinks she knows f'n everything
R Brendon she is going to make her own mistakes
B No, no no not about that. She tries to f'n pose as this girl from this middle class family that is not
R (interrupts) Brendon why are you letting it get to you?
B (upset) Because I am from an f'n middle class family! I didn't grow up with a lot of sh*t! I didnt' get to go traveling around the world! That is what f'n infuriates me!!!"
R Well you know what infuriates me? When you act like this!
B Okay, I am sorry for letting it get to me
R I don't even know hwy you care
B Cuz it bothers me, because it's....I.....I grew up with a lot of f'n poor people! So when someone tries to talk sh*t or f'n act like they know, they have no f'n clue...
R (very soft, believe she said) She is young
B It drives me crazy
R And you aren't ever going to change that. she was raised a certain way and....
B (interrupts) I got that, I got that
R And it's never going to change
B I got that. And I am sorry for lettin git get to me. Okay
R And she is never going to understand.....
B and after you left I made sure she understood that I wasn't knocking her or her relationship and it's cool, nothing to take personally and it's all good you know? But more importantly, I am sorry for beting disrepectful to you. And you do mean a lot to me. And I want you in this game. I want you out of this game.
R (curtly) I am . B starts to caress her face gain. It's just that you promised me the other day that we weren't going to argue. And we've argued since, over really stupid things. So please, can we just like quit it? (B says "yeah, but" and R gets louder) Seriously, it's a problem already
B okya, k k it's fine. but remember, but, but baby, but remember that this goes two ways ( R must have given him a look because he shoots up and puts his hand to his heart and says "I mean, I'm")
R Alright, you are right it does
B Come on, don't be like that
R I am not being like anything, I know you are right I am agreeing with you
B I am not saying it's all my fault agruing or it's all your fault arguing.I dont' want to fight with you, I have arguing with you, are you kidding me? I love laughing with you, I love being with you, I love cuddling with you. there is no reason we should argue because we are going through the same stuff. We obviously love each other (BB pans back to show that it was light out and numerous HG's were outside when this argument began and now it is very dark and no one is arouond)
B Yeah?
R yeah
B No, I am asking you. I Love you
About two minutes go by without R saying anything and B asks "Did your feelings change?
R No, what are you talking about?
B I dont' know. But I thought you would say it back
R gives a cocky laugh and says "is that what you are upset about right now?" "Cuz I didn't say it back right away?"
R smiles at him and says "you're so silly" and leans in to kiss him. Why are you so sensitive?
B I think I got dropped as a baby
B I am sorry that I wasn't senstive enough to see you upset, I do love you.
R does not say it back but his him a series of small peck kisses
R what am I going to do with you? Rachel cuddles in close to Brendon and leans her head on his chest B "This is where you belong" and strokes her hair
B This house is really stressful, but I don't think that life is as bad as this
R Life is more stressful that this brendon
B yeah, but it's not like microwaved in and back to back to back stressors
Feed changes to Kathy and Kris and that is the end of Brendon and Rach argument and make up. sorry so long in between updates, but it was a lot of info
