Aye. *shrugs* Didn't feel I had a choice, really.

*sighs* We ran into the bloke, he had a knife, one thing led to another. What did you expect me to do?

I didn't even know, so I didn't expect anything...

Fine. It doesn't matter anyway.

*blinks again, wondering what is going on, unsure what he's said or done*

What doesn't?

That. *gestures vaguely* It were something I needed to do, didn't tell you at the time - even though I'd thought you'd understand - because I didn't want you to think I did it for the wrong reasons. Right now I don't see how it matters though.

*starts to get angry*

Hang on, you spring this on me, I'm trying to figure it out, and now you tell me it doesn't matter, when you don't even know what I think? Like I don't understand, or something? Or have some 'wrong idea' going on??

*runs fingers through hair*

Hell, I don't even know what I think, for Chris'sake! What the hell am I meant to be, Mr fucking Instant Understanding?

*rubs hand around back of neck as tries to figure Patrick out*

*sighs* I didn't think I were springing this on you, really. And no, I don't know what you're thinking and yes, I still think you'd understand.

My reasons for doing this were simple, a. the bloke had it coming and b. it felt good to finally be able to get back at someone who'd hurt me, albeit not me directly.

*shrugs* That's all I got, really.

*stares* What? You thought I knew about it? You never told me, so how the hell was I supposed to know?

*mutters* then what were y' meaning before then, hey?

And I never questioned y' damned reasons, did I?

I were actually thinking someone had told you. And no, you never questioned my reasons but since you weren't telling me what you were thinking either I thought I'd explain myself anyway, just in case. Didn't think it could hurt to do that for a change. I'm sorry.

*huffs a sigh, shoving his hands in his pockets*

I just... didn't know.

*stares at ground for a moment, trying to figure out what to say and how he felt once he'd thought about it*

But thanks... Nothin' to be sorry about

*shakes head* And people say I'm the one who doesn't talk, eh? *kisses Brendan's cheek and ruffles his hair, smirking* Glad we managed to clear all that up.

Yeah, right!
*huffs dry laugh, resisting urge to shoulder tackle Patrick to the ground*
Y' just a regular 'open book'!
*hides smirk*

*nods solemnly* I am, which is why I reckoned you'd be able to read me without my having to say anything an awful lot. *smirks* Please don't tell me I were wrong there.
