"Oh - and you don't even clean up after yourself - how hard is that?" Eddward questions from outside the shower. Leaning against the far wall, Eddward glares at the shower curtain with enough irritation to penetrate the curtain itself and kill the person on the other side. "I slave around all day between work and consults and you can't even pick up after yourself!" Eddward yells as he flushes the toilet once more.

"Eddward!" Kevin screams as he falls back against the shower wall. "What is wrong with you!" He shrieks as the scalding hot water strikes his skin once more. "Stop that!"

"What is wrong with me?" Eddward laughs hysterically. "You are what's wrong with me!" Eddward flushes the toilet once more and Kevin's screams can be heard a block away.

"Eddward! Will you please - just - stop that!" He pleads as he corners himself in the shower to try - and I mean try - and protect himself from the burning hot water.

"I don't want it to seem as if I am unappreciative - because I am and I thank you for everything you do for me - for us - but you don't even listen to me!" He shrieks and flushes the toilet again. "I try my best to manage my time - our time - because I work - we both work - but you don't even-" Eddward pauses for a brief moment before his emotions get the best of him; however, if Kevin was to tell the story here, Eddward's emotions have already got the best of him; he even has the burns to prove it. "The point here is that you don't even try anymore Kevin!" Eddward laughs and shakes his head.

"What are you talking about?" Kevin hollers over the running water. "I try every day!" Kevin claims and flails his arms from inside the shower. "Sometimes even more than you!" He claims.

"More than me!" Eddward flushes the toilet with enough force that he almost breaks the handle off of the basin. "Are you serious right now?"

"Eddward!" Kevin screams at the top of his lungs as he cowers in the corner of the shower with nowhere to go. "Please!"

"Everyday when I come home you are playing Call of Duty with Tommy - who never has his homework done - the dog dying of starvation - the laundry piling up - the chicken still in the freezer - and oh - let's not forget the house is a mess!" He stammers. "I don't ask you to do a lot!" He flushes the toilet once more.

"Please, I'm sorry!" The shower curtain flutters with Kevin backing away from the steaming water.

"It's the little things, Kevin Líadan Barr!"

"Eddwa-"

"Between you - the dog - the children - work - the chicken - the dog - I just-" Eddward screams in frustration and flushes the toilet once more, taking his anger out on the redhead standing in the shower. Kevin loses his footing and falls to the bottom of the tub. "I am sick of it!" Eddward storms out of the bathroom, leaving Kevin panting in the shower and silently thanking God for granting mercy on his soul. "Sick of it!" Eddward screams from somewhere inside the house and Kevin flinches.

"Love you too!" Kevin screams followed by the sound of the front door being slammed.
