Asher, can we go to Bangkok next year?

And that was the one time I'd wait. Better than a hotel, next time I'll just turn around and go home.

Come on, I was gone a couple of hours. You only told me you were coming on Thursday, I can't drop work plans that fast. I tried.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_classact_/]

I asked if you had something else to do. That was your opportunity to tell me, still Thursday, not Friday when I'm on the fucking plane.

[r-vecchio.livejournal.com]

Because I thought I could get out of it. I'm not gonna turn down a chance to see you without even trying. But Kowalski couldn't do it so I had to. It was just two hours, Asher. Less, since you hadn't arrived by the time I left.

Length of time isn't the point. Next time, turn it down.

[r-vecchio.livejournal.com]

The chance to see you or the work?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_classact_/]

The former, you jackass. I'm not that much of a selfish asshole.

[r-vecchio.livejournal.com]

Wasn't it you who just refused to wait for me again in the future?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_classact_/]

Personal standard. I won't wait again, I don't care what it is you have to do. Did I say I'm not waiting so you better ditch future work engagements? No. That's not selfish.

[r-vecchio.livejournal.com]

Personal standard? What the hell is that? It's not like I'm some cop you got business with or some guy on your books.

At the risk of sounding like a broken record: I. Don't. Wait. Not for anything I can help. I wait for the sun to go down on a daily basis, that's about it. Don't like it? Tough.

I bet you wait for Danica.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_classact_/]

Whether I do or not doesn't matter. You're you, not Danica.

[r-vecchio.livejournal.com]

And I don't get the same treatment, yeah yeah.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_classact_/]

Stop trying to flip this back on me. You're in the wrong here.

[r-vecchio.livejournal.com]

The only thing I did wrong was refusing to let two hours with a snitch lose me the rest of the night with you. If I gotta be blamed for that, then fine.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_classact_/]

You do.

[r-vecchio.livejournal.com]

And you need to learn to let things go. Look at the bigger picture once in a while, Asher.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_classact_/]

No.

[r-vecchio.livejournal.com]

If I could turn the clock back to yesterday afternoon, I'd do it all exactly the same. But now with the added bonus of knowing I was about to piss you off.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_classact_/]

I wouldn't have showed up. Also? Fuck you.

[r-vecchio.livejournal.com]

I can't believe you're actually mad at me about this. I apologize for keeping you waiting, Your Highness. Better?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_classact_/]

No.

[r-vecchio.livejournal.com]

Asher, I'm sorry, okay. Can't we just forget about it and say I've learned my lesson?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_classact_/]

No.
