"Is it...when Luke saw so many kids like him and sometimes younger lose that kind of innocence to the war? Is it so silly that he doesn't want Bo to end up that way, doesn't want Bo to know about the horrors that the big wide world can bring? Why is it so silly to want to keep hold of something that you remember and treasure so dearly, something that's been a consistent factor in a time of crisis, in times of pain, of suffering..." Sara questioned softly.
-
Sara nodded a little, flicking her ponytail back over her shoulder.
"Well...that's not something I can help...I know a lot about people...i'm closer than family to some people because of what I know...but Luke trusts Bo more which is why he doesn't tell Bo anything...he has this idea that if he pretends Bo's innocence is still there then everything's ok..."
-
"You shouldn't begrudge him that though Daisy...he's been through more than any of us could imagine..."
-
"Believe me...some things you just dont wanna know about people...especially those closest to you. They can change the way you see them completly and the reason those people dont tell you what's been going on is because of that. They dont wanna be seen or treated differently.,..they just want to get on with their lives..."
-
"Yeah...it's good that your all so close...it has its advantages...you just gotta remember that sometimes what you think is best for them may not be the best at all...you've gotta listen to each other, and tell each other you need something..."
-
"Yeah...but dont knock it...there's a lot of worse ways you coulda grown up..." Sara replied with a smile.
-
"oooh..." she said knowingly, nodding with a small smile.
-
Frowning a little, she looked back to Daisy.
"Why's that?"
-
"Well...I could see what I can do...got no guarentee that i'll be able t'talk to him about it though...a lot of family members see a therapist as someone just for the patient...that we listen to their problems so we dont need to listen to others.."
-
Sara nodded again.
"Yeah...and because Luke's afraid to let people go and not be in control...he doesn't exactly give Bo room to grow away from him...and Bo's more than happy to let that be.."
-
Sara bit her lip gently, looking outside a moment before saying.
"I'm guessing...as the youngest of the family...he's never taken responsibility for anything before...well nothing major before anyway..."
-
Sara nodded a little, leaning on the side thoughtfully.
"Has he grieved for his Uncle yet?"
-
Sara frowned, looking to her.
"Bo? What's wrong with Bo?"
-
"Better than before now I think...he's unloaded a lot of stuff today, stuff I think he's needed to talk about for a long time...we've straightened some things out...gotten him thinking a bit differently about everything...so hopefully he'll be much better when he wakes up...he's still gonna have a few problems but those are things he needs to know figure out himself. I cant make him see everything..."
She said with a small smile, getting her jacket.
-
Sara came out the bathroom with a small yawn, heading into the kitchen.
"Well...Luke'll probably sleep the rest of the night..."
-
Bo nodded a little, washing up his glass and putting it away.
"Guess so, I got chores."
With that, he grabbed his boots and put them on, heading outside.
-
"Daisy its not like he's known her a few days...he's been with her for months...its not like they haven't talked, its all they ever do."
-
"Why not? He's a man, she's a woman, he's lonley, she understands him, they've gotten to know each other pretty well over these last few months...she can make him laugh...why wouldn't he fall in love with her?"
He questioned, swallowing down some water.
-
Bo shrugged, looking to her as he got a glass of water.
"I've only ever seen the look of peace and contentment in Luke's eyes once...and that was when Candy was around..."
-
"Or his love for Sara..." He said quietly, getting up and going to the kitchen.
-
Bo nodded again gently, yawning lightly as he looked across the room, seeing Sara going into the bathroom and nothing but quiet coming from the bedroom.
-
Bo sighed, running a hand down his face with a nod. He was just finding this all so hard, the fact that Jesse's passing had all caused a breakdown in the family he knew as always so strong had scared him deeply and he was just trying to press on the only way he could think of. Except it wasn't working because no one seemed to be moving with him...
-
Bo sighed heavily, shaking his head.
"I know that but...he did it and then...I just didnt know what to do...He closed up on me again because I proved that he was right, that he can't talk to me..."
-
Sara smiled as she watched him talk himself into sleep, seeing his sleeping posture more relaxed than it ever had been before. She felt that Luke had finally had the mini breakthrough he needed to see that just talking about everything actually did help. Getting up, she tucked him in gently and left the room wearily, heading to the bathroom.
Bo meanwhile had been with Daisy in the kitchen and the lounge, talking worriedly about Luke and what he was actually doing for him now Luke was home. He felt so powerless and he didn't like it.

Sara shrugged a little.
"Just observations..."
