Bo sighed and nodded, knowing how important Jaimie was to Luke.

Suddenly, in Luke's head, Jaime's voice rang out clear and sounding a little upset.

"Dad...Dad are you alright..."

Luke smiled a little and thought, "Calm down sweetheart...I'm fine....I'm alright."

For a moment there was no reply as Jaime physically let out a sigh of relief. All she had heard from Daisy was that Luke was in hospital before she had cried out to him in her mind. Sometimes the special power of hers really came in handy...other times not so much. Eventually she did reply though.

"Okay...me an' Aunt Daisy are comin'..."

Luke closed his eyes settling into his pillow. "Alright...I'll see you soon sweetheart," he thought to himself a slight smile on his face.

Bo raised an eyebrow as he saw Luke's expressions change a little but didn't really think anything of it. Since Jaime had been around that had happened more with Luke and he knew the reason why so sad nothing about it.

Luke opened his eyes, looking to Bo and Jesse, "Jaime's on her way."

Jesse shook his head. "That there is worse than what you and Bo used t do with that secret language of yours."

Bo laughed remembering that...they used to confuse not only the bullies in the playground with their secret language but also the teachers when they were making up excuses for lateness or for skipping school.

Luke laughed too. "Hey...it's not our fault...you's the one what raised us t' be close."

Jesse nodded. "Never thought I'd live to regret it, though I almost did when I got that call from the principal..."

Bo winced a little, biting his bottom lip...he sure remembered that phone call...

Jesse shook his head.

"Ain't our fault...we woulda never got caught if Enos hadn't felt so guilty about settin off the fire alarm with us that he up and fessed cryin' t the principal," said Luke with a chuckle. "And Jaime better never hear about that neither," he warned.

Bo chuckled a little, shaking his head.

"Poor Enos....he's too honest for his own good sometimes...and Jaime probably already knows about it...she is a relation to you and most of our teachers are still there remember..."

Luke nodded. "Probably. You know you'd think the teacher's woulda appreciated it...w just wanted t' give em a day off..."

"And yaselves..." put in Jesse.

Luke smiled. "Well sure..."

Bo grinned, shaking his head.

"Well at least we made a name for ourselves..."

"That ya did... right on the suspension list for one week...and you..." he pointed at Bo. "You had the nerve to go back and do it again!"

Luke chuckled. "You always told him if at first ya don't succeed try try again."

"That weren't what I meant," snapped Jesse his beard hiding a smile.

Bo grimaced a little, looking down at his hands as his Uncle reminded him of the second offense, but the only reason he was doing so was to hide the smirk and the twinkle in his eyes.

He couldn't help it...he got so frustrated and bored in school that the place needed livening up...

"Well technically...all he did was get people runnin...an it was during Phys. Ed." put in Luke immediately regretting it when Jesse shot him a glance.

"Oh...and I suppose putting a whoopie cushion on the music teacher's chair..."

Luke shrugged playfully. "The good Book says make a joyful noise."

Bo laughed instantly, thinking back to all his capers and mischivious acts back in school. Even when he had just started he was out and about raising as much of a rukus as he could....

Luke laughed out loud too. "Remember on Bo's second week of school he took in Auntie's food colorin and put it in the class Fish Tank?"

Jesse nodded his blue eyes twinklin. "Turned the tank black..."

Luke nodded. "He said he thought they'd get bored in plain water..."

Bo rolled his eyes, still chuckling but not liking the fact they were talking like he wasn't there.

"Hey...still in the room here..."

Jesse shook his head. "Don't wory Bo...I know another Duke who made a name fer himself the first week... an it weren't cuz he colored no goldfish black neither."

"I don't think Bo needs t hear bout that, Uncle Jesse..." said Luke turning a little red.

Bo's eyes widened a little and he grinned.

"Oh he does need t'hear bout that Uncle Jesse..."

"I thought he might," said Jesse with a grin to Bo and a look to Luke letting him know to hush.

Luke hushed, growing redder by the minute.

"Now let me think...I think it was the fourth day he took it upon hisself t' bring in a class pet fer the teacher..."

Luke frowned. " She said she liked cats."

Jesse shot him a look. "Now Lukas I don't think a polecat was what she had in mind."

Bo's jaw practically dropped to the floor as he laughed.

"A Polecat?!"

Jesse nodded.

Luke frowned. "She said black an white cats was her favorite."

"Uhu..." said Jesse.

Bo was near falling off his chair laughing now, hugging his middle with one arm as he leant forward slightly, shaking his head.
