The one thing about being in paradise was that it made you feel so safe sometimes to the point that you forgot how evil some things or in this case people could be. Ace had always felt like he had chose what was right for him and that was why he aligned himself as he did but then there were times like now where even though he was not sure he knew he was too loyal to leave or change his mind. None the less it was good for him since it was only the second time in his life he felt like he truly needed to stick by something. "Oh it's totally worth the pain I just sometimes forget how painful it is. So I hear the Ashfords are throwing some kind of party, are you going to show up for it or just hang back?" Parties had never been his thing and besides he was sure that the Ashfords were no good. Cae Mire

"I have never been the type who went by what anyone else was doing. All I know is that sometimes you have to do what you want and go from there. As far as the party goes I am not going. My nights are spent eating pizza while my body can still move the calories faster and i do not have to worry as much about my weight. Besides being around all those rich people honestly makes my nerves itch, why were you thinking about going?" Ace Nottingham

"Hell no," he said before realizing it. "I mean it's simply not my scene to be honest. I could get dressed up I have before but at the end of the day I do not want to feel like I need to. I do not know that much about the Ashfords because people with money always seem to be able to cover everything bad about themselves up and I am smart enough to realize that should I go digging it would do me more harm than good." He could do stupid things from time to time but it did not mean that he was stupid. "Maybe if they throw like a boat party. I have always been extremely partial to the water so that is where anyone can easily find me." Cae Mire

"The ashfords do have a lot of money I mean it's even so much I have no real idea what it would even be like to be that rich." She had thought at one point and time that she would want to be that rich but she had seen what money like that could do to someone and she did not want it as much anymore. "Yeah I noticed that. I mean I like to look at water and swimming in the shallowest of parts is okay but I do not like it anywhere near as much as you do. Why is that, were you raised by water at least if you can remember?" Ace Nottingham

"Yeah well once my father died we did before that we did the same thing that everyone else did and kind of lived in a home and everything was good and the rest well as you know the rest is history. I try not to push forth on the past but sometimes you do have to talk about it because there is no other way to get around it." At one point and time he did think that he wanted all of that but then his own family had went so south that he did not. "What about you what would you say that you remember the most from your child hood? I mean we all have things that we remember but sometimes it is easier to just pin point one thing here or there if that makes sense." Cae Mire

"I do remember when you told me about it. It was the first time that I had seen so many emotions come from a person in such a short time and honestly I was glad to never really see anything like that again. I did not quite know how to process it if you want the truth I only knew how to stand there and look as dumb as I thought that a person feeling emotions was." Emotions were still not her thing. "I am hoping that I am better now but once that party is over if we are not going let's hang out. We need to do more and not the kind of stuff that involves you always trying to arrest me. That is truly messed up." Ace Nottingham

"Life comes at us so fast that sometimes it is hard to know which way we are going and which way we are not. I mean a party for example as we are saying is a big move. I mean everyone is gathered in a room and smiling but when you look at the smiles you know that everything is really seen behind the eyes. If someone wants you to be good at something they will always look you in the eyes because that is the only way to truly show how well someone is really knowing you if that makes any sense." Cae Mire

She nodded and she knew no matter how much he spoke a small part of Ace still had to miss both his parents. It was hard to know that when everything was happening and you were a young kid just how your life would turn out. None the less he seemed to be dealing with it well enough. "Well the good news is now that we are able to do what we want. I mean you and I still have our ups and downs and that can be worked on but as far as this island it is nothing but paradise." She knew that sometimes she could overlook everything and be a bit naive but she still liked it that way. "How about we go see if we can find a bar and get us a drink. I was going to say that you would know that it would easily be tropical but I figure that much is already known, how does that sound?" Ace Nottingham

He took a second and let the thoughts that were sitting in his head marinate. "I mean everything has a reaction to a person's action so it only makes sense that everything we do has a bit of a cause and effect to it. I would prefer to sit here and say that it did not but that in no way is the truth. I think that to me personally that is what the idea of paradise is built around." He knew that he had taken a while to circle around to what exactly it was that was paradise in the first place but he felt like he truly knew what it was now. "Paradise is different depending on who is looking at it. A lot of people come here because it is calming but you might have the one person who comes here because it is different from their every day life. Maybe here and there you have a few people here and there who like water sounds," he said as he laughed. All the differences were things that he had come to notice also as things that made everyone different in a big picture of trying to find out where it was that you fit in. "Our past is always going to be important but we should not let it permanently define who we are, it only needs to help mold us for what we can only hope is a better future." A bar? He thought about that too for a minute because he did not exactly know how alcohol would effect him. "Yeah let's go that sounds good," he said as he stood up. Once they were both up he walked and the sands along his toes felt good but the whole island was still something that he was getting used to. "The nearest bar is probably lit up with palm tree decorations or something but as long as the alcohol is good I do not think that I will mind it too much." Cae Mire

She nodded one because she wanted him to know that she had acknowledged what he said but she also was taking the few seconds to think. "I think that is the first thing ever that you have said that I can say I agree with whole heartedly. It is not built on something that does not exist but instead it seems to be built on something that does and an acceptance that it is not the end of who we are as a person but instead a beginning." She stood up and took a second. "I think if we go just a few miles out we can find a bar away from everything and just drink until we are either so sloppy drunk we forget what happened or we wake up in grass skirts and do not question how we got there." She took a minute. "It will not be the first time that we got lost and came out on the other side of somewhere and figured a way to make it work." Ace Nottingham

He stood up and nodded. "It all sounds good to me and we are good now so let's go." He always thought it was better to walk around in at the least pairs on the island because it was crazy to think that you could not be safe but he had seen a lot of different stuff and he just wanted everyone to be safe. Once they had arrived he opened the door for her and took a second. "You know what you want to drink or do you know where you want to sit? I can order our drinks if you want and that should be okay."

"That sounds good to me," she said as she looked around. "The only place I have ever sat in a place like this is the back corner and as far as what to drink it does not matter. I can hold my alcohol pretty well so it's going to come down to what you think you can handle as far as the drinks go." Ace Nottingham

It was not impossible to get him drunk though it was hard. Still he did not believe that he had to worry about anything with Trove as he had decided to go back to calling her. It was true that they knew each other inside and out so he took a second and ordered them both a martini. It was a small drink to start with but if they wanted to get drunk he figured they might as well start small. "Okay our drinks will be here," he said as he took a seat. "This is a nice spot by the way. It has just enough light that we can see one another but not so much that we forget what the other one looks like. Look I just want to take a few minutes and let you know that I am sorry. I did not mean that, I did not mean anything by it but a lot of times it is hard to do my job." Cae Mire

"I know and you have to know that I never believed you did. I know that everyone has a job and that is always important and you having to do your job is always going to be the first thing that should come to mind." She took her drink and after a few minutes she smiled. "It is simply nice to hang out with you. A lot of times I try to hang out with other people but they put so much pressure on me that it bothers me, I guess that means that I am damaged." Ace Nottingham

"I think that everyone is damaged. I mean the things that happen in our life are things that we can only handle up so much of and I do not think that we should worry too much about it," he said as he took a sip of his drink. It tasted nice and he nodded. "You and I have always been through so much anything that happens in this paradise should not surprise me." Cae Mire
