It's not your place. And, I know what I did. I went after the Ripper of Monterey single-handed. Without research and then got my ass handed to me by a slayer.
( And then was tracked to the hunter bar. He made all his choices. )
I know what the world's like. I know what they were facing. I know the side I was on.
( If he thinks about 'what he deserves,' it opens up an entire can of worms he's not ready to deal with. Cans of worms he left behind. A father and mother he disappointed. Maybe he wasn't kicked out by Wes' definition, but his parents' words were clear. And he left behind a sister he loved. And a girlfriend he didn't. And guys that didn't know him. And one guy that did. )
I'm not saying I got what's coming to me. And I'm not saying this is punishment. Maybe it just is what it is. And it's more. I loved Lucas and I loved Cooper, but I also didn't even know what love is. ( And deluded himself into thinking he could have Cooper. Transference. It's a bitch. ) And, I didn't ever have, you know. I never lived life. ( He played a role. Well-rounded golden boy jock. ) I got regrets like anyone. But, you. This. Mia. Your family.
( He turns around, hands coming to his waist, fingers slipping through his belt loops. )
I'm living, baby.
( It's more playful, smooth, Grease baby, then romantic baaaby. But, the smile. That's real. Smooth just happens. Notice how he just got more smooth? He never was? He was awkward in his skin and tried to make everyone happy. Tried proving himself. And now. Does he need to? )
( That's right, they were here to refill glasses. So, he focuses on that, so they can each take two glasses and bring them back, Jay Michael handing Scarlett hers again. )
[And with that teasing comment, they will have a lovely dinner and eventually Wes and Jay Michael will get some alone time once their guests have returned to their hotel.]

That doesn't mean you deserved all of it. You made mistakes but doesn't mean it was a just punishment. Lots of people fell for Monroe's rhetoric.

I am very glad to hear it.
[And as he leans in to kiss him, Scarlett's voice comes from the other room.
"Are you boys coming back with that wine, or are you just going to flirt in the kitchen all evening?"
Wes sighs, before rolling his eyes.]
Rain check for after my parents are gone?

Sorry about that. Pesky corkscrews.
