Lavinia nodded, thinking some things over. She gathered that Luke was talking about something to do with Jenni's gymnastics. "Well...why not get the coach to come along an' go an' support Jenni' instead..."
Lavinia sighed and put the plate down on the table, crossing over and hugging Luke softly. "Don't worry...he's probably just gone for a walk...or to water bomb something...you know he does that when he gets angry..."
Jesse quickly grabbed Luke's shoulder and pulled him back. "Ah now Luke...you leave him alone...he's obviously gone for a reason an' the last thing I want is for you to go find him only to have an argument an' end up hurtin' each other. You go eat your dinner, I'LL go find Bo."
Jesse sighed and ran a hand down his beard before looking outside. "Well...it ain't dark yet...and I know Bo wanted to keep away from ya a bit...he's probably gone for a walk...."
Jesse looked up from where he was brushing Maudine the Mule, frowning. "Well yeah...we had a talk out there in the yard before I came in here...last I saw he was still standin' in the yard..."
Lavinia looked over from where she was cooking at the stove, smiling to Luke with a nod. "Yeah almost..." It wasn't obvious she was sick...but everyone in the house knew she was.
Eventually has to stop, having asthma meant he couldn't run for very long. He took a quick puff of his inhaler and waited before carrying on walking, just looking around as he walked.
Bo continued to run, not knowing where he was going, just wanting to get away for a while. To be honest he was a little annoyed that he always got told off when he teased Luke but Luke never got told off when he teased Bo.
Bo sighed, wondering if he should protest again that he wasn't teasing but knew it probably wouldn't do much good so he didn't say that, instead only mumbling. "Still don't give him the right to try an' drown me..."
"But I wasn't teasin'!" Bo protested, even though he knew full well that he was. "You always said I should tell the truth so I was! You said we shouldn't keep secrets from anyone in the family unless it was birthday surprises or somethin' so I wasn't!"
"No...I just walked out the room sayin 'Luke love Jenni' and he chased after me..." Bo's bottom lip wobbled a little. Even at 11 years old he still had the skills to pull that off..
