The doctor nodded and started to walk away.

"Sir, she is in safe hands here in the hospital. She's under constant surviellence..."

The doctor sighed "All I can do is look Jaime over, explain what I think to the social workers along with your statement, then from there its in their hands. Child Abuse is illegal Mr Duke...I have to take proper action..."

The doctor sighed and shook his head. "I don't recon that's illegal no....but I have to inform her legal guardian which is her mother...and if we bring her here, the police and social services can have a word with her..."

The doctor frowned deeply. "So you kidnapped her?"

Bo sighed and shook his head, reaching out and putting a hand on his shoulder, squeezing it softly.

"Luke you can't help how you feel...you had to tell her sometime...she'll get over it..." Bo said softly

Bo nodded a little "I know...s'okay..."

"Not quite Mr Duke...you see...I have reason to believe that Jaime is being abused at home...and as her father...I cannot let you in until you've spoken to the social workers..."] The doctor said solmnly. Bo swallowed, looking to Luke...wondering how he was about to get out of this one..

The doctor nodded. "She should be, barring any complications..."

Bo shook his head softly and patted his shoulder. "It's alright Luke..."

The doctor raised his hands to calm Luke down so he could get a word in. Bo put his hand on Luke's shoulder and squeezed softly, as the doctor started to speak. "Well she's up in the ICU for now...she lost a fair amount of blood and there was severe internal damage...luckily we managed to get her here in time before anything really problamatic occured. She's stable, but we're keeping her in the ICU for a while.."

Eventually, the doctor came out the double doors Luke had been keeping his eyes on for the past few hours.

Bo nodded gently with a small smile "I know ya are..."

Bo bit his lip, watching him pace before answering his question. "Luke...she got stabbed in the stomach...they's gonna have to be workin' on her long to make sure she's alright..."

Bo nodded a little and looked to the doorway Luke was fixated on. He had never seen Luke so hung up about someone except a member of his family before...

Bo ran a hand down his face "But still...you need to talk to Jamie...otherwise that feeling is not only going to be repeated for Jamie, but also for you when you go to the state pen for 20 years!"

BO nodded back "Which means..."

Bo sighed "That's her choice Luke...technically, if she says so...if she says you took her without her permission, you're guilty o'kidnappin'...

Bo sighed "An' they say i'm the impulsive one...I think you need to Luke..."

Bo sighed and looked away, shaking his head "No you could be a great father....but your on probation ...what makes you think Jamie's gonna want to live in Hazzard? How do you know Jaime even wants you to be her father? Have you asked how Jamie feels about this at all?"

Bo swallowed, shaking his head "Luke you can't..."

"Your gonna be her father?!" Bo exclaimed, looking almost horrified at the thought.

Bo's jaw near hit the floor in shock, before he blinked a little and exclaimed "You what?! But...Luke that...that would...make you her...her..."

Bo took Luke by his shoulders "What have you done or are planning to do..."
