["You almost tore my throat out until I forced you to stop" is - what he wants to say, when it comes to trust. He had to make Derek bleed to get him to listen to him, so trust is a tentative thing. Now Derek's using his wording to be hurt and that just makes Tate angrier, breathing hard through clenched teeth.]
i told you i'll leave before it even starts. i told you i won't get drunk. i won't get high. i'm coming to you tomorrow. that should be enough. i didn't have to tell you about the party like i didn't have to tell you about what kavinsky's done but i told you. because i wanted to tell you.
you say you care about me and i believe it but i also believe that you'd kill him if you could you told me that, remember? i trust you, don't - don't play it off like i said i didn't i just said i WANT to trust you won't do shit and right now i'm not sure you won't because of how much you care about this.
i need to keep him pacified until the thirteenth he's not going to react to that well so i need to make sure he doesn't see it coming you get that, right? i know you don't like it. won't like it. but i have to do that right now. so i don't know how tomorrow will go but it won't go great if you pop on the headlights because you see him grab my ass
[ they're circling a little, and derek's too caught up in his own feelings to calm down and actually read between the lines here. tate's trying to calm him down, and he's being pretty smart about it, but derek's too angry and bruised for it to work. ]
Whatever. Okay. Do what you want. Text me tomorrow if you decide to stay at the party in the interests of "keeping him pacified".
