CHAPTER FOUR: Confrontation Of Sorts
A/N: Jeff's officially back wrestling so I just want to say YAY for him, even though that still won't push me to watch TNA's weekly pay-per-views though.
But before she could even take one step in the direction of her room, a man's voice stopped her dead in her tracks.
"What the hell is going on here?"
"FUCK," She loudly cursed, turning around to face the man who spoke.
"Hello Erin," He spoke, "Happy to see me?"
"I'm always happy to see you Uncle Kevin," She lied, "And you too, Uncle Paul."
Then she added,"How was your flight," a sinister like smirk playing on the corners of her lips.
"Great, until we arrived here and found you two in the middle of a massive argument," Paul retorted, "Care to explain?"
"No, because you guys will just take my father's side, like you always do."
"They don't take sides. They unlike you decide based on logic and reason and what's best for you in the long run," Shawn told his daughter.
"See it's that last remark that you made that always starts our arguments. You just told me that they decide based on logic, reasoning and what's best for me," She briefly paused, 'But here's the thing that you seem to forget, Dad. How can you decide what's best for me at the drop of a hat and not even come and consult me on it?"
"How can you do that? I just don't get it anymore. I understood it once upon a time, but seeing as now that I am over the legal age limit of eighteen, should I not now be consulted or even asked of my opinion first before you go off and start deciding what's best for me?"
"You aren't consulted on decisions concerning you because as I said before you have a tendency of not examining both sides of a situation before jumping headfirst into it, like you always seem to do."
"Name one time that I've jumped carelessly into a situation before examining it," Erin challenged, glaring at her father.
"Attending college in New York after we both had decided that you'd be going to school here in San Antonio, Texas where your family is," He answered, sporting a smug look on his face.
"I don't see how I was careless there in choosing to go to school in New York. It was a damn good school and it was better than the school I had applied to here in Texas," She replied, watching her father roll his eyes a bit, "Besides, didn't you always say 'never settle for second best, when you could have first class', at least when dealing with education?"
Oh yeah let's see you try and get around that one now, old man. Okay that might have sounded a bit hurtful, but who else is going to open up his eyes besides Uncle Scott and myself? Nobody right?
She watched her father open his mouth to respond back, but he quickly closed it and sighed in defeat. "You know she's right, Shawn. You did always tell her never to settle for second best when dealing with her education. So in reality you can't really be upset with the decision she made concerning her choice of school because she was just following what you have always told her to do when it came to dealing with her education."
I don't believe it, yet I should because the impossible has happened right before my very eyes.
Erin's mouth dropped open in shock, "Did you just defend one of my decisions?"
Kevin nodded, smirking at the shocked look on her face, "Surprised?"
More than you know, buddy boy.
"Um, I guess you could say that, if you really want to," She slowly told them, "But I was just wondering how long it would be before you two...have a change of heart, so to speak."
"Okay so then why don't you explain this argument to us," Paul softly commanded.
She briefly contemplated being the one to explain the argument to them, but quickly decided against it. Why should I be the one to explain the situation to them if my father's going to twist it around and fix it so that he looks like the right person in this situation?
So instead she stood up and said, "That's okay, I think I'll let my father explain it to you like he always does," Before walking off to her bedroom, leaving Kevin and Paul confused.
The two men turned towards their longtime friend and waited for him to speak.
"So what's the deal here with you two arguing, Shawn," Kevin questioned.
"Well to make a long story short, she has decided that she's moving to Louisville, Kentucky and I told her that I don't think she should go down there. So as usual she got mad at me and causing us to get into a huge argument and you know the rest from there."
"Ah, say no more Shawn, we completely get understand where you're coming from on this," Kevin told him and quickly added, "Don't worry she'll probably come around and change her mind about moving away from home."
Now while all this was going on, the three men in the room failed to notice the fourth person who was standing in the shadows unnoticed. They had decided to hide and listen upon seeing the other two men in the room because they wanted to find out for themselves what version of the truth Shawn would tell to their two best friends. After hearing Shawn tell them and leave him out of it, he decided to make his presence known, so he stepped out of the shadows.
"Now that's not the complete truth Shawn," He commented, "And you know and I both know it, because I actually was there for the conversation."
Kevin and Paul looked at the man in shock.
"Scott, what are you doing here man?"
A/N 2: Okay well, you'll have to excuse me if this chapter is somewhat crappy, but I only wrote it in two days and I can't rewriting different parts in it and such. So I apoligize if it somewhat bites. Anyway, you know the drill read and review.
