Her eyes flickered up when he mentioned apology. As if he knew what he did wrong! She wretched her arm out of his grasp, thinking to slam the door in his face-But his other hand stood in the way. She wasnt that heartless, until he spoke up again.
Sister...? Her mind bitterly repeated...
Its a well known fact irish women had strength when they needed it most. So it wasnt hard at all to wretch the door open, even with the chain in the way. Which flew in various small peices past her. With her other hand, Erin whipped out the golf club and slammed the bar against Conner's side.
"Ar ndóigh, tá mé do dheirfiúr nuair is mian leat a bheith orm! Ach nuair nach bhfuil nithe is mó a!" Of course, i am your sister when you want me to be! But not when it matters most!
"You seemed so happy to keep that bit of the past with you. Why are you here and not reminising more?" She switched again back to English. Trying to keep her sentences short of a mouth full.

"Ah thought ah..." God why was it so hard to speak right now? "got rid o' it ages ago." No excuse, why had he been looking at it then, she'd probably demand. Why had he not tossed it as soon as he found it again? And he had no answers for those questions because he had kept it because damn it he hated letting good things go.
"'m 'ere 'cause," he started, grunting he struggled to stand back up. "'m facken s'rry n' yer ignorin' me 'gain n'.... n'. Fack!" Conner slammed his fist against the wall and squeezed his eyes shut.
"Ah need ye ta fergive me, Erin." He glanced up, eyes watering now. "Please... Please?"

So why was it still there? She wanted to ask, but he seemed to have a bit more to say.
"Why should i talk to you? If you're not angry with me, you're shitfaced." She lifted her golf club outwards, as if pionting a sword at his heart. "I dont have to do anythin-" His eyes caught her off guard and she lowered her club for a moment. Only a moment, because his voice brought her back. "Uimh... Uimh!" No... No!
She pulled back her club, grasping it with both hands before swinging full force at his shin.

"I suppose, I suppose." She muttered, tightening her robes slightly before heading back to the hall, tea in hand, and just catching Erin attacking her twin with one of her club. "Right!" She yelled, grabbing Erin by the hair and tugging her back, "I aint sure about what the hell you two are fighting about but that doesnae happen in my place!" the last bit came out as a hiss as she let go of the hair only to cuff her sister across the back of the head.
Sighing as she took a sip of what hadn't been spilt of her tea, she glanced at Conner, "Are you okay or shoulda call nine nine nine?" she asked, not carrying if she had said the British emergency number. All she wanted to do was go back to bed...or have a smoke.
Whichever was more stress-revealing really since the tea sure wasn't.

He really hated that Erin had gotten their mother's strength. It always turned out bad for him on occasions like this, and bad usually meant bruises, sometimes cuts and always feeling worse than before he came over.
"'ll be fine," he bit out, carefully rolling up his jeans to look at the damage. Already he could tell this would be ones of those bruises that took forever to heal and changed from one nasty color to another every few days.
"Fine," he muttered again, using the wall to stand and gritting his teeth. "'m s'rry ah disturbed ye both. 'll go now..."

"Hey, lemme go!" Erin demanded while pulling at Rory's grip. "He started it!" But the stuggling did nothing. Now that Rory interupted her, she lost the will to keep beating Conner. Physically that is.
"Like hell you're sorry! You dont even know what you're doing, do you? Thats what you get when you drink yourself into stupidity!"

All he could do was repeat, "'m so'rry, fer everythin'..." over and over with a bowed head, slowly shuffling off with the wall at one side and a heavy heart.
