"Well technically I'm not a Henderson anymore." I say to him. "Neither are we!" Dustin and Justin say. "Yeah! I'm a Crescent like momma!" Jenny says walking over to where Ian and I were standing.
"Henderson Army... Attack the traitors!" Zoe cries. Ashlyn, Isaiah, Hope and Holly are cheer and start making snowballs.

"Ah, this is fairer," I grin slightly, "Okay...uh...Non-Henderson army then!" I laugh slightly.

"Attack Crescent-Emerson-Hunt Army..." Jenny says thinking of all of our last names.

"Yeah, that's the one," I laugh, picking up a snowball and throwing it.

The snowball hits Holly in the leg. "Hey you meanie!" she whines. She throws a snowball, which nails Justin in the head. Holly giggles. "Holly Madeline Henderson!" he yells like I usually do. I look over at Ian. "I named Holly after Maddie." I say softly.

"Sorry," I call over, then laugh slightly at Justin.
I smile weakly at Shell, "Nice of you."
I pick up another snowball, throwing it harder than I probably should have, but thankfully it misses everyone.
"Oh, did I tell you?" I mutter, "I'm a dad now."

"Ian that's great!" I look at his face. "Isn't it?" I ask him.

"No," I mumble, "Not when they're supposed to be twins and then it's just one. That's not great."

I sigh deeply. "I... I've lost two kids too Ian." I say pulling him into a hug. "I know what you and Maddie are going through."

"It sucks," I mumble, hugging her lightly back, feeling increasingly like a child.

"I know, I know..." I look over at the kids. "All of you play. Uncle Ian and I are going inside for a bit." I take his hand and lead him inside to the kitchen. "You want to talk about it?" I ask as I sit down on a stool.

I sigh softly, sitting down, "There's not much to talk about, I suppose. They were born early and one of them made it and the other one didn't."

I look down at my coffee mug. "Ian I don't know what to say. I know nothing will send the pain away." I say to him.

"It just feels so..." I stop, trying to find the words, "So fucked. To be happy that one is okay, or to be unhappy that one of them isn't? I don't know...I just don't know what I'm supposed to be like."

I sigh a bit. "I know this will probably not help, but I think you have to feel both. As hard as that is, you're going to. Not by choice though. With happiness always comes sorrow."

"I guess," I mumble, propping my head up on my palm and leaning my elbow on the table top, "Just sucks is all."

"I'm sorry..." I say to him, knowing nothing to say at the moment other than sorry.

"Yeah, me too, this is just depressing," I mutter, "Sorry for fucking up the conversation."

"No it's alright. I asked you what was wrong, you answered. I'm glad you share things with me. Unlike before, you were always so distant when I first met you." I say softly.

"It's easier that way, I just feel weaker now. I could deal before, but now...I can't cope so well," I admit, running a hand over my sleeve, feeling the cloth catch on my scars.

"You're not weak. If anyone's weak it's me." I say to him.
[[yay I'm finally back! My laptop is being repaired and my mom is evil about the computer, so yeah. I went to Riley's house aka Nina, and stole her laptop. *evilly laughs* And what is this about a mutual stalker fan club? lmao.]]

"You're the strongest person I know, Shell," I tell her.
[ooc-lol, yay i missed you! haha, mutual stalker fan club, if you want to stalk and be stalked then yeah, jennie had an idea. lol.]

I look at him. "How am I one of the strongest people you've met?" I ask him shocked at his statement.
[[awwww, you missed me? I feels loved now! lol sure why not, I guess I could possibly stalk someone or someone could possibly stalk if me if they so desire? lol]]

"Look at all the kids you have, some of them aren't even yours. You've coped with Nick," I hesitate slightly after saying this, not sure if I was allowed to or not, "Your father, far more than anyone I know and you're still putting other people before yourself and are prepared to help them. If that's not strong I don't know what is."
[ooc-lol, yeh should feel loved! yay! i'll tell jennie!]

I smile slightly at all this. "But I let a simple girl, a friend into my house and she killed me in my own kitchen right where we are sitting." I say closing my eyes. I point over to a spot on the floor right near our stools.
[[lol, alrighty then so how are you? It's sooo cold here especially with all the snow.]]

"Then I don't know, but I'm gonna stick with what I think about you." [ooc-i'm good.  tired and a little bit hungover even though i had virtually nothing to drink yesterday. stupid shitty body. but otherwise i'm good. you have snow? lucky!] |

I sigh a bit. "Alright then. I still think I'm weak because of my death, but...I don't know." I say still looking at the spot on the floor.
[[awwww... *hugs* Yeah, but Nina and I went to go shopping which I hate by the way, and her mom came and got us, so we left nina's car there in the snow. poor car. so now we are here... did you read that occ thread I made yet? ]]

"You didn't choose to die, did you? Death comes for us all, Shell. It doesn't make you weak." [ooc-thankoo. and poor car.  nope i haven't yet. although i shall right now.] |

"No I didn't choose it..." I say softly, still thinking that it did make me weaker as a person right now after I came back.
[[haha, be prepared for randomness. lol]]
