Who: Logan and Aaron Echolls. Where: The Echolls home, Neptune California. When: Earlier this afternoon, 4/19/09 What: More than likely a knock down drag out. Warnings: Violence and swearing. Lots of both.
With Logan on the way, Aaron had been busying himself in the kitchen, made himself a small meal before pouring himself a glass of brandy. Moved to the family room to sit and stare at the wall of photos of him and Lynn and of Logan from his birth to his teenage years, even some recent ones. His and Tess' wedding, Christmas, the baby shower. All had just appeared out of the blue and every day Aaron sat himself in the same chair and just stared at the damn things for hours trying to figure out what picture was taken the closest to when he had snapped. Seen Lynn spending so much time with the baby as such an infidelity that he needed to be punished for the rest of his youth.
Now that Lilly had cried rape, he knew he was at least in for a good ass kicking. If the kid brought a gun, maybe that'd be best. Maybe the quick and abrupt exit from a world that saw him as a broken monster that couldn't be fixed, was a good thing. Aaron looked to the most recent pictures, ones that had just appeared of Lynn and the kids at Easter, Lynn bent to press a kiss to Tess's belly. He couldn't help but wish before he was taken out, he had a chance to do the same, just the once.
He swallowed back the last of the brandy in the glass and turned his head slightly when he heard the door. Waited for blinding rush away from the earth all over again.
