George: So, Alexander...
Alexander bows his head. It is very hard for him to face his father at this moment. He is ready to face the consequences, the blow of the injection and that he no longer has a parent.
George: It seems like me and your mother have failed miserably as parents.
Alexander: Dad, I... I tried... I couldn't...
Jace: George, don't be so hard on him. It's not that big of a deal! He's still your son. Nothing's changed.
George rolls his eyes.
George: God! This annoying habit of constantly interrupting me. Close your mouth and let me finish!
Jace: Yeah, but-
Alexander: Jace, please don't do that.
Jace leans back, crosses his arms in front of his chest, and scowls at George. He's ready to defend his brother again if need be. George looks at Jace and smiles.
George: Oh, Jace! You remind me a lot of your father right now. Always ready to defend the ones you love. That's how Stefan was to me.
Jace: Stop with your melodrama, George. We are not here to talk about me or my father. We are here to talk about Alexander.
George: Yeah. I'm sorry. I just miss my friend, but you are right. We are here to talk about Alexander, but I don't see what we have to say about him. When I said we failed, I meant that our son is afraid to talk to us, even about such a small thing.
Alexander quickly raises his head and looks first at his father and then at his brother, who looks at him with a stupid, confused expression on his face.
George: What's the matter, boys?
Jace shakes his head trying to understand what he just heard and Alexander is so confused. This is really cute.
