Bo frowned a little, regarding his cousin a little. He seemed very defeated now...like he did when one of his plans didn't quite work out as he had wanted. "What happened..."

I like John's music a lot but I don't like Tom's Jazz. I have to say his country music is brilliant though, there I think the boys are equal. I wish Tom would do some more country stuff

Bo looked up as he came out, standing up. "How is she?"

Heiress Daisy Duke

Jaime settled softly into the rhythmitic movement, soon falling asleep again

Jamie nodded a little, looking to him.

Jamie nodded a little, not knowing really what Luke could do. Jamie had to testify really for the whole thing to be proved...but she couldn't...

Jamie bit her quivering bottom lip...she wanted to get away from her mother, now that she had seen who her mother really was...but she couldn't...

"I...I don't know but...I...I don't wanna risk it..." She admitted

Jaime looked to him desperatly. "No! Don't you see! It won't be! If I say she did what she did, then she'll tell everyone my secret!"

Jaime shook her head "She can't be..she...she said if...I tell those social workers anything...and I get taken away...she wont protect me no more...she'll tell everyone..."

Jaime swallowed hard, biting her lip "I can't....I can't escape my mom..."

Jaime nodded gently "You were just tryin' to tell me the truth....make me face up to what's happening outside my little fantasy world...."

Jaime fell quiet again, looking away from Luke and up at the cieling.

Jaime swallowed and shook her head gently. "Just said I came because I wanted to help you find Bo...."

"They asked me why..." She said softly

Jaime sighed a little, one hand resting on her stomach, the other in Luke's hand. "I...told them I ran away with you...."

She softly squeezed his hand back, swallowing gently. "Not too bad...weak..."

Jaime swallowed and carefully blinked her eyes open, looking to him with a small smile.

The doctor led Luke to Jaime's ICU room and showed him in. Jaime lay looing smaller and paler than she had done before, hooked up to machines and tubes. Her eyes were closed.

After a while, the police left and Bo was allowed to return to Luke's side where they could do nothing but wait. Personally, Bo didn't see what the point was in waiting - the doctor has said it was unlikely Luke would be allowed to see Jaime anyway. But this was important to Luke and so he would stick by his cousin whatever he decided to do. After several more hours, the doctor came back. "Mr Duke...Jaime has asked to see you..."

Eventually, the police came into the waiting room, taking Bo away for his statement on what he knew and to conduct the interview with Luke so he could tell his side of the story.

But, sure enough, out of no where her voice rang back at him...even in mind speak she sounded weak. "Thank you...."

Swallowing, Bo put an arm around his cousins shoulders, squeezing gently. "It'll be ok..."

Bo swallowed softly and looked to Luke. "You okay?"
