Bo raised an eyebrow in mock though... "Alright...then I want Lori, me an' Luke cleared of any an' all charges, and I want enough money to pay for the farm..."
Jaime slept a little restlessly through the night, murmuring in her sleep. However Luke was always there to soothe her, being roused from light sleep in occasion to soothe the young girl from her nightmares.
Jaime continued to sleep in Luke's arms, head resting against his strong chest. She was small for her 13 year old age, and thin, pale having got little to no sunlight over the years.
Bo grinned back to Luke and turned round with a straight, pain ridden face. "Like what Boss? That's two charges we got you on now...even Lori can sue you now..."
After a while, there were no more tears left for Jaime to cry and for the first time in her life that she could remember, she fell asleep in the arms of someone who would protect her...who liked her for who she was.
Bo laughed humourlessly and shook his head "Caught runnin' shine?! Boss she was never caught runnin' shine otherwise federal police would be chasin' her from now till the end o'time...you made it all up didn't ya!" He said, knowing Luke had the tape recorder in his pocket.
Eventually she stopped struggling and dissolved into childish sobs again as the power of Luke's words hit her hard. No one else's mom kept them locked in basements...no one elses mum made her hide her wrists from everyone....did her mom actually hate her...
"Friend? You mean Lori....now how on earth would you know Lori's in town Boss...and what charges are you talkin' about..." Bo stepped towards him, still acting hurt as he cradled his hand.
Bo scowled in disgust and shook his head. "Why would I make a deal with you?! All you do is go back on yer word! If we go to Judge Druton we got legal promise that you will stick to your word..."
