He chuckled. "Well, I've been doing this for almost a decade now, I think if I was bored of it, I'd be doing something else." He said and gathered the papers together and set them aside. "We can go climbing. Or on a hike if you want. I think one of trails opened up around the beach." He suggested to her with a shrug. "Unless you wanna throw some axes. You have some anger to release?" @lilahelliott

"Fine, but don't blame me when you're bored from marking papers, I gave you a solution," she joked with a shrug. "I don't know, something fun," she admitted, "we could go to the beach, go climbing or axe throwing or anything really," she said. In her world an activity got bonus points if she couldn't do it with the kids, but it was nice to do anything without having to be hyper vigilant the whole time.

Travis could feel his blood beginning to boil as his brother went on. He wanted to throw the hammer in his hands, but instead of doing that, he just held it tightly as he got more and more angry. "You want me to let it out? Fine." He said heatedly. "I'm angry, okay? I'm angry that the woman I love is out there with a man that was supposed to be dead. And I'm angry with myself for feeling that way because she deserves to try with him and if it was Darcy, I would be doing the same." His voice was loud, but he wasn't yelling. It was still filled with anger, though. "I'm mad that I am building this house that was supposed to be a fresh start for myself and for her. This was going to be our living room. We would have that amazing view of the ocean. We would maybe have kid. Maybe adopt. Or it'd just be us, but it was up to us to decide. And it's all shattered now. Everything I could see for myself and the rest of my life is gone. I didn't just lose someone I love, either. I lost my best friend." He felt tears coming up and he pushed them down. "All I want to do is keep working on this house so maybe I can sell it once it's done. I just want to get through the next couple weeks of work so I can spend the summer trying to get over the love of my life once again." He knew he was lucky enough to meet the love of his life not once, but twice and how unlucky he was to also lose them. "So just please shut up and work, okay? Work or leave. That's all you need to do." @benjaminxjackson

"You don't have to tell me everything Travis but you but I just hate it when you keep all your emotions in and it just builds and builds. We are similar that way," he spoke his voice still calm despite his brother's words. "I know that emotions deserve to be felt and have a way of coming out and there is just only so much before one break. Plus, I hate seeing my brother hurting too," he ran his hands through his hair. "I know I am an hypocrite but I do know I am working on changing that at least....you are letting something out,"

Ben had a feeling this would happen and this was somewhat of the outcome he wanted, Travis letting out something even if he did not talk. "Okay, fine I will not keep pushing again at least for the rest of today," he spoke looking at his brother. @travisjackson

He nodded as Apollo talked and smiled at him. "Always good to have a plus." He said, happy to have his brother find someone like Apollo. Now that Travis was in a better state of mind, he could truly be happy for the couple. "To get food, but he always hooks me up with something so it's a win. Plus, helps he knows my allergies." He laughed a little bit. "I was just taking a break from working on the house." He was striving to get it done faster now since finding out he was going to be a dad again. He wanted it to be perfect for Lili and their baby. @counselorapollo

Apollo had given himself a migraine at work, having skipped breakfast and working through most of his lunch break. Not that he had a designated time to eat, he did own the place and could come and go as he pleased. Still, his stomach was growling now and he knew he needed to eat or date night with Ben would be ruined. He couldn't decide on whether to have it delivered or go grab it himself but any chance to see his boyfriend, he was going to take. He was heading inside the building when he heard a voice that sounded familiar. "Not necessarily. I'm here for the food but he's always an added bonus." He smirked, holding the door open. "Are you here to see him? I don't want to interrupt brotherly bonding time."

He laughed a little. "As much as I'm sure them and their parents would love that, I do gotta see what they're learning. However, I'm not like that account Lils showed me on TikTok where I grade unfairly. I encourage the creativity." He said and shook his head. "Alright. What are we looking to do?" He asked and put his pen down. @lilahelliott

Lilah knew that perhaps it was impolite to make yourself at home in someone else's house but to the Elliott's it was a sign of caring, it showed you felt comfortable. "Hello," she grinned, realising that she perhaps hadn't greeted him as kindly as she could've. "Just give them all good grades," she declared, "we've fucked the environment for them, may as well give them some grace." Lilah wasn't one to mince her words. "Something else sounds like a good idea though."

He shook his head. "Don't worry about it. I mean, that's the point, right? Stand or sit to listen to the music." He said with a shrug, not wanting the man to think he was in the way or anything. "Are you liking the music? I think they got a pretty good line up this year." He said. Honestly, if he had someone to perform with, he'd be up on stage too, but he figured no one wanted to hear him just play guitar at something like this. @orionxblakewood

Orion was often quiet, keeping to himself and not one to really take up space. He had wanted to seat this out but, he was trying to be more comfortable around people and crowds. Orion was still someone who was getting better, learning how to be hold. Most times in crowds, it was easy for the other to blend in. Orion was looking at his phone, reading a text when someone bumped into him. "It's okay....." he replied putting his phone away. "I....guess it's my fault....for just randomly....standing," he added with a soft smile. @travisjackson

He took a deep breath as Anthony told him to not go and that it was fine. He wasn't sure if it really was fine, but he wasn't going to refuse the man. Like he said, it was probably for the best. "I guess so." He told him and took a drink of his gluten-free beer. It was definitely going to be awkward for the two of them. "So, uh, how are you liking Kismet Harbor?" @anthonyxblake

Nothing like running into the man that Liliana was engaged to for a singular day before he came back and ruined her life once more. "No-" he was quick to shake his head, much to his own surprise as the other man offered to sit somewhere else. "It's fine," he cleared his throat, "probably for the best, I guess," he told Travis. All things considering, they had never had the chance to talk and at least if they had to talk, there would be alcohol involved in it. @travisjackson

Travis swallowed and nodded. "I do, yeah." He did feel for the other man just as he felt for his brother. No matter what, breakups were hard. "Good. I'm glad." He said and took a deep breath. "Well, I should get going. I have some stuff to do. It was... good seeing you, Roman." He said before taking his cart and waking away. @romanrhodes

END

"Good. Good." Roman nodded. He liked Travis, he thought he was a good man. He'd been upset and disappointed when he heard about his break-up from the woman he loved, Liliana. Strangely... they maybe felt similar to one another, and Travis probably wasn't fine, but Roman was going to get into that with his ex-boyfriend's twin brother.

"I'm... surviving." Roman shrugged. "...You know how break-ups are." He gave Travis a knowing look, a soft sadness in his expression before he turned away, and put the polite mask back on. "The diner is great. It's really good, business is doing well."

Travis shook his head. "Can't say I've ever been." It would've been somewhere he would've taken Liliana, but no where he'd go on his own. Hearing about Isla and the shop, he nodded. "I'm sure she's trying, though, huh?" He said, knowing he'd be the same if he owned a business or something. "I'm glad to hear everything's going good." @elianxbrowne

"If I wanted you to know, don't you think I would tell you?" He said sharply. He was growing tired of older brother and wished the man would just stop. "Yeah, well, you're still pretty shit at it and you hypocritical for thinking I should be out here telling you everything." Travis kept going and huffed. "All I want to do is work on this fucking house that I no longer have use for in peace. If you can't just shut up and work, then just leave, Ben. I'm not doing this brotherly therapy shit." @benjaminxjackson

Ben had a feeling how of Travis was when he pushed and made Travis talked, he knew how things that his brother keep in could lead to anger and he did not mind at all if Travis let out his anger on him, called him out on things. He watching as his brother hammered a nail in harder, getting another. "Then let me know Travis," he spoke, a small sigh escaping his lips as he looked at Travis. "Wow....." he added knowing his brother was right. Ben had not been great at talking about things and his feelings but he was working on it. "You are right, I might not have been great about talking about my feelings but am working on it." @travisjackson

He looked up as he heard the door opened and saw Lilah coming in. Since Andrew had been there, his best friend has been letting herself in, but it was something he was used to since he was little. "And a hello to you too, Lilah." Travis said as he looked back at the papers he was grading. "Well, I'm working on giving kids good or bad grades, but I'm assuming you want to do something else?" He asked and peeked back up at her. @lilahelliott

Who: @travisjackson Where: Travis's House

Lilah was often letting herself into Travis' house to see Drew but she did usually give Drew the heads-up first. Today though she was genuinely passing by so she decided to swing in. She knocked on the door but then immediately opened it, throwing her keys on the table and beginning her search around the house. She called out as she moved around the rooms before landing in the living room where she found Travis. "Not the Jackson I was looking for but you'll do," she said, dropping herself down on the chair. "What's your plan for the day?" Lilah was bored, something she daren't say but the kids were both at a party for the rest of the day and she'd been on a nightshift, meaning she had the day off.

It was strange to be friends with Anthony's brother, especially after getting with Liliana, but since Anthony came back from everyone thinking he was dead, he had avoided Dom like the plague. At first, it was just out of respect for them all to adjust and then it was just him grieving his relationship. These days, it was because Lili had left Anthony and was back with Travis. He didn't know how Dom felt about it all and he was sure it was going to make the friendship a little awkward. He didn't even know if Dom knew everything which was even worse. So when he heard his nickname, he turned and waved hesitantly back. "Hey, Dom." He said as the man approached. "Yeah? That sounds good. How are you?" @domblake

Closed: @travisjackson – Checking in with Travis and the changing tides.

"Hey, Trav!" he said, tossing up a hand at the kindergarten teacher. Dominic was aware that the situation rapidly unfolding before them was full of intricacies and nuances. Anthony's return from the grave had turned their world upside down once again. His re-entry into society was testing all of them, and the foundations of various relationships were beginning to crack. However, Dominic had come to cherish his friendship with Travis, and he hoped that his brother's reappearance would not hinder it in any way. "I was in the neighborhood and thought I'd swing by if you have a chance to chat."

Travis had volunteered for his mom to bring the donation she wanted to do down to Cedar Grill and while he was there, he decided to stick around for it and donate himself. He had sat down at the bar and got himself a drink and was taking a drink when someone accidentally knocked into him. "It's..." He said as he turned as well and looked at the man sitting next to him. The color left his face and he sat a little straight. "Anthony." He said and took a deep breath. "I can go sit somewhere else." Travis said, grabbing his drink and moving off his stool. @anthonyxblake

location: cedar grill and lounge, charity event

Megan had suggested it would be a good idea for him to get out. His frequent phone calls with the woman had been good for him and he knew that she was right. Though he wasn't entirely overjoyed with the idea, he went to someplace familiar, not realizing they were running an event for the evening. It was rather packed and his heart raced in his chest, forcing him over to the bar where it was slightly less packed. Anthony excused himself through a few people and sat down at the bar. "Cheapest on tap," he told the bartender, settling into the barstool and accidentally knocking into the other. "Sorry 'bout -" he turned to apologize, realizing whom he had sat down next to.

Doing what she asked, Travis moved harder against her body. His arm moved it's way to hold her back while the other held onto the counter as he moved back and slammed back into her body. He was panting as his forehead rested against hers. Everything about him missed her so much and he wanted to soak this up, but he also just wanted to pleasure her. So he kept his pace going hard and his hand came back around to grip her cheek before he let out a growl and kissed her hard. @lilianaxsantos

Her bottom lip was captured beneath her teeth, feeling her body tense and release at his movements, pleasurable sounds escaped her once he hit the right pace, her hands moving to the counter to slightly reposition herself, uneasy at the edge of the counter as she bucked her hips as best in her ability in her current position, never the one to just 'lay there and do nothing' if she could. She wrapped one arm around his neck, feverishly kissing him back and claiming every moan that slipped from his lips, her thighs squeezing against his hips. "Harder." She breathed between kisses, already tightening her hold on him. @travisjackson
