Jaime didn't say anything but the tears did start to fall slowly down her cheeks again.

Jaime turned away folding her arms. "Why don't you just save us all the trouble an' go back to your girlfriend, let me start plannin' the rest of my life..."

Jaime very nearly came out with the retort 'What does it matter to you' but managed to hold it back and gave a shrug instead.

Eventually Jaime pulled away and stayed looking at the ground, her long hair covering her face gently as she muttered. "You should be in bed..."

Jaime hugged into him a little but her heart wasn't in it and she didn't answer.

Jaime bit her lp a little, knowing that Luke would try and climb the ladder with a bad foot to get to her and she didn't want to get yelled at again. Hesitantly, she climbed down the ladder, tear tracks on her cheeks.

Jaime sniffed hard, shaking her head even though Luke couldn't see. "I don't wanna talk right now Daddy.."

Jaime jerked from her sleep in the hay, hearing Luke calling to her. She swallowed hard and stayed quiet, not wanting to talk to him right now in case she did what she had done with Bo and push him away evern further.

Daisy sighed and shook her head. "Fine but you'll feel Bo's wrath when he gets back...I think him an' Jaime had a bit of an argument...she's been out in the barn since she got back from visitin' you...well bar school o'course..."

Daisy looked up from the book she was reading in the lounge when she heard a noise and shook her head a little with a smile, getting up to greet him. "Luke your awake! But your gonna have to turn round an' get back inta bed...Bo's instructions from the doctors were to keep you off that foot for a few days..."

Daisy sighed as she watched Bo storm out the barn and drive away, back to the hospital but for what, her and Uncle Jesse hadn't had the time to enquire. They could always ask Luke when they woke up. She looked to Jesse as she bit her lip, knowing there was something strange going on with Jaime, and if Bo couldn't handle what Jaime was saying then she knew it was something to do with Luke and Luke was probably the only person who could right whatever wrong was going through Jaime's mind.

Bo headed back to the General Lee, sliding into the driver's side and heading back to the hospital as he had promised Troy he would.

"Gladly...I didn't realize what a spoled brat you had become recently..." He replied before heading down the ladder, perfectly content to let Jaime stay in the barn and be that way.

Bo shook his head. "Just so you know, i'm the Master of the silent treatment so I know how it works. It ain't gonna affect me none."

Bo frowned and said sternly "Jaime that is quite enough of that...i'll have you know that Luke ain't been this happy in years before you came along...so he's found a girlfriend, that aint uncommon with me an' Luke....you need to do some serious growin' up young lady because the fact is Luke can't go through life just devoting himself to you and what you want, although I know if you asked him to he would."

"Look...if you don't believe me go ask him yourself...although I think he'd be a little hurt that you thought so little of him..."

"Then he'll get tired of her...Jaime...Luke puts his family above everything else in his life, including the people he dates...he loves you so much princess and there is no way on this earth that he will ever get bored or you or abandon you....trust me sweetheart..." Bo said softly, hugging her close.

"And he'll always love you...Jaime your his daughter...all he talked about to her was you...how he was worried about you..." He said softly, rubbing her back

Bo's eyebrows raised in disblief....he knew that Luke would always care about Jaime.. "Jaime that's riiculous! Just because he's got himself a girlfriend does not mean he won't care about ya less!"

Eventually, Jaime's sobs stopped and Bo asked softly. "Now...what's all this about hmm..."

Bo sighed, knowing he needed to calm Jaimie down before he could get a word out of her. He simply sat there and let her cling to him, rubbing her back softly.

Bo swallowed gently, wondering if he should wake Luke up...something was very wrong. "Jaime sweetheart you gotta talk to me properly...what about Luke?"

urm....76 cents? I don't know why that sounds right...

"Daddy? Daddy's home now sweetheart...i've just brought him back..." He said softly.

Bo swallowed a little, rocking her softly. "Hey now...what's all this about huh..."
