[[Okay, so I was a huge slacker today. There's a perfectly logical explanation though! This weekend is my Dad's only three days with us since two weeks ago for work, and he's leaving again on Monday, so this weekend we're spending a bunch of time with him. I'll probably be able to get on late at night to catch up though, and by Tuesday, I'm all yours! Here's a nice long post to help make up for today, hopefully. P.S. I totally got post #600! I'm special once again! Take that, broken! OH and we took my dad to see Dark Knight... AMAZING! Okay, long OoC is done now.]]
Mason sat in the living room, her mind stirring over what had just happened. She had calmed down a bit, and was now just thinking to herself, with the television playing the news in the background; volume down, but still audible. She was mostly thinking about Alex, but other things popped into her mind as well, Randall being the next most frequent. She kept thinking about his drinking... about her drinking... She knew it all had to stop, but she didn't know what to do about those sudden urges for alcohol, or about how to talk to someone after a relationship is ended.
Trying to get these depressing thoughts out of her mind, she began thinking about the babies-to-come, and how much she was going to spoil her little godchildren. She smiled at this, which made her look kind of dumb to anyone who would pass by during that moment.
"Good thing no one's around!" She giggled and continued to zone out.
Her thought process was interupted by the ringtone on her cell. She pulled it out of her pocket and read the caller ID name. "Mom" is what it said. She opened and answered. "Mom? Hi, wha-" Before Mason had a chance to fully greet her mother, she was interupted by a simple, voice-shaken, yet drastic statement.
Casey, honey, listen, last night, your father... he was killed in a car accident.
Mason dropped the phone, making a loud *thud* on the wood floor. A noise was faintly coming from the phone lying open on the floor; Casey? Casey! Casey, are you there? What happened? but Mason had become deaf to the world for just one moment. The room began spinning and as Mason got her thoughts straight, her eyes flooded. It felt as if her voice had left her, and it was replaced with a searing pain inside her throat.
She fell to her knees, and sobbed painfully. As she became able to hear at least something from her surroundings, the TV seemed to blare.
~*~*~
We have an urgent news announcement. We at Channel 11 News are deeply saddened to report the sudden death of a major impact in the music entertainment industry. Adrian Mason, the rock & roll legend, was tragically killed this morning in a drunk driving accident. Born in a small town in Indiana and grew up in San Jose, California, his songs have been playing on the radio since his first classic hit, Lovin' This Lady, and he has continued to affect the whole rock genre throughout his lifetime. The Mason family has made no public statement as of now, and the identity of the driver has not yet been confirmed.
Adrian Mason is survived by his loving wife, broadway dancer Treanya Summer Mason, and his daughter of 19 years, Casey Mason. Our deepest sympathies are with them during this difficult time. We will keep you, our viewers, updated as more information becomes available. This is Channel 11 News, reporting.

"Oh its 136", he told nate. "And never call me johny again..you know i hate that!" He hung up. He heard mason's crying. He ran downstairs. "whats wrong Mason?" He ran to her side. He hung up her phone. Then turned to her. He heard the last bit of the news. "Oh god... Mason are you ok", he asked. God it seems like i have to do all the comforting around here. He hugged mason. "Mason...?"

Mason buried her face into John's chest and sobbed loudly. "My... my... he... my mom..." She tried to make sense of something, but not one full sentence came to her lips. "He can't be..." She finally controlled the sobs somewhat enough to make normal conversation, through red eyes. "John... I just talked to him the other day! He was fine! His tour, and its..." Mason fell apart again.

"Mason, i already know what happened. I heard the last of the news. It's going to be alright. It wasn't his fault. Ut was a stupid drunk driver." He stayed there hugging her for a while. Then he heard the T.V. again.
We have just got a report. The police have released the name of the drunk driver. His name was Kyle Hyde. He passed away about an hour ago. The mason family say that they will not push charges against the Hydes because of John Hyde, and Casey Mason's life long friendship. We will have more news after these comercial messages.
John stopped listening after the words Kyle Hyde "Oh god Mason..my dad was the driver. He died too. I can finnaly forget about that horrible man. But..he killed your father." Now John began to cry, not for himself or his father but for Mason and the rest of her family.
[[hmm to screw over this rp or not? That is the question ^^]]

"Oh, my God, I, John, wow..." In utter bewilderment and pain, Mason looked up at John. "Our lives are ******** up..." She sat up and hugged John. "I'm never drinking again. A drunk killed my father..." Mason choked on this sentence, but remained strong. "That's it. I can't do this anymore." She got up and, still holding on to John, led him into the kitchen, where she opened the fridge, and took out an unmarked thermos, opened it, and dumped its contents down the sink. "That was my emergency bottle..." She whispered as the last of it dripped out into the sink. She tossed the thermos aside and sat down, leaning against the kitchen island cabinets.
"I'm sorry, John..."
[[IDK what are you gonna do??]]

"Don't be sorry for me..to tell you the thruth i'm glad my father's dead he was a horrible man. It's good that you've stopped drinking. I just wish my father didn't drink." John helped Mason up. Come on..lets go see a movie or something. He called upstairs to tell everyone they were leaving. John led Mason outside to his car and started to drive out of the appartment parking lot completely forgetting about nate. "So, watcha wanna see?"
[[lolz..something very bad > smile nah then uvula would like kill me]]

"Is there a movie that has nothing to do with sadness, music, family, school, or dying?" She tried to make a tiny bit of humor out of the situation, but it ended up being a true statement. Mason gazed out the window, and when they pulled out of the lot, she saw a person standing at the intercom. "John... that person looks a bit like Nathan..." She mumbled slightly, turned, then pointed.

John looked where he pointed. "Nah, that can't be nate...that person doesn't have green eyes." He couldn't really tell but he just guessed. "But seriously, what movie do you want to see?" John kept driving. He pulled out of the parking lot and into a bussy street.
[[hmmm > smile i want to..but i dont want to causeill make everybody mad lolz ^^ but i need Ai on in order to do it anyway so..i'll wait]]

"Wha... you saw his-" Mason stoppd herself. Right now, nothing made sense, so she figured it was best to leave it alone. She said something about Batman, her words slightly jumbled with her previous sentence. Great, she thought. A movie about death, family, and sadness, all in one... stupid.
[[lolz~ As long as it doesn't, like, end the roleplay, then it's kool... I guess... *THIS IS ME NOT KNOWING WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT]]

"Batman? Ok i'm fine with that." They road in silence the rest of the way. When they arived at the movie theater, John parked and wlkaed in with Mason. Theu go the tickets, popcorn, and pop. They were walked in and sat down. John quickly turned off his phone almost forgetting as the movie started.
-|-|-|-
When the movie finished they quickly left the theater and got in the car. On the ride home they talked about the movie John had forgeten about the accident completely.[[im not sure if it will nesicarily END the rp..it might twist it alot!!!!! but not end it lol]]

The movie, though it completely failed at getting Mason's mind off hers and John's fathers' deaths, had unexpected plot twists and she did enjoy it. Though, when she thought of the Joker, then thought of him killing Bruce Wayne's parents, she couldn't help but think The Joker... is John's dad, and I'm Batman...
Now completely convinced she was insane in the head, she kept the conversation light and quiet, talking about Jack Nicholson compared to Heath Ledger, instead of Mason compared to Batman... stare [[lolz... um... ask Ai? You probably should]]

When they got home John looked at his phone. He had 8 new texts. He went up into his room and laid on his bed. He looked at the numbers they were all from complete strangers.
Your the guy from the news right?, said the first one.
Your dad killed your best friends dad? Wow that sucks, said the next.
Dude, thats hilarious your dad and her dad both died!!! hahahaha sucks to be you!
John didn't bothere with the rest of them. He ran into the bathroom. He said he would stop but he couldn't. He cut both his rists making two X's dripping blood into the sink he just let it bleed for about a minute. When he got light headed he patched up his rists. He washed out the blood and went to his room slamming his door. He droped himself in his bed crying.

[[GASP! Idea stealer! GET OUT OF MY BRAIN!]]
Mason walked in the door and realized what John was doing, and went to grab her phone, now lying on the coffee table where John had placed it. As she picked it up, it began vibrating, indicating a call coming in. It was an unknown number, so she left it alone, waiting for them to leave a voicemail. After she "missed" the call, she went on to look at all her missed messages. 17 missed calls, from various family and strangers. 12 text messages, all from her oldest cousin, and a few more from other people. She threw the phone on the couch with all her might, which wasn't much, considering how much weight she has been losing, and all the pain she was going through on the inside. She turned around to see John pass the stairway, storming into his room. "We're in this together" She said, and followed him in, slipping inside before he closed the door. She sniffed and spoke. "John... I, you..." She looked at the bandages on his wrists. "No, John..." She knelt beside his bed, her eyes threatening to leak. She grabbed his hand and held on, rather tight. "We need to be here for each other. Talk to me. Don't punish yourself. It's not your fault."
