September 19, 200718 yr Bo took his little hands in his softly, shaking his head,"Troy listen...i'll be back tomorrow I promise ya...but I gotta do my chores this evenin and in the mornin otherwise i'll be neglectin' the animals an' you don't want me to neglect them do ya..."
September 19, 200718 yr "Exactly...they need me too Troy..."Bo explained as gently as he could, rubbing the boys back."And hey, if I go home it means I can get some of my trophies an' things an' bring them bac tomorrow to show ya...would ya like that..."
September 19, 200718 yr Bo continued to rub Troy's back softly."Come on Troy...don't ya trust me...I told ya i'd come back after dropping Luke off an' I did didn't I?"
September 19, 200718 yr Bo nodded, hoping that he was wearing Troy down. He was tired and really wanted his nice warm bed."That's because Duke's always keep their promises an' I ain't broken a single one yet...i'm not about to break my perfect record on you..."
September 19, 200718 yr "Just go to sleep Troy...I promise i'll come back tomorrow for ya...i'll leave my number too so that you can call me if ya need to.."Bo promised softly as he tucked Troy in gently.
September 19, 200718 yr Author Troy nodded his thumb finding its way back in his mouth as he felt the gentle hands tuck him in and he soon gave in to sleep.
September 19, 200718 yr Bo watched the boy sleep for a while, shaking his head sadly before getting up and leaving, near running down a nurse that was walkiing in at the same time."Oh..sorry miss..."
September 19, 200718 yr Bo frowned a little, starting to feel a little uncomfortable at the way she was staring at him...like he was the greatest thing since sliced bread or something..."Uh...M'am are you ok?"
September 19, 200718 yr Author The nurse flushed. "Yeah...I just....I didn't realize they found a relative of Troy's..."
September 19, 200718 yr Bo frowned deeper and shook his head."No..I...I'm not a relative...I'm just a friend..."
September 19, 200718 yr Author "I beg your pardon...I thought..." She bit her lip ahsaking her head unable to get over the uncanny resemblance.
September 19, 200718 yr Bo nodded a little, side stepping her."It's ok...look, please just look after him...i'll be back tomorrow afternoon..."
September 19, 200718 yr Author The nurse nodded. I'll take good care of him Mr. Duke..." she said before heading into his room.
September 19, 200718 yr Bo nodded back before heading down the corridor and back to the General, getting in and heading for home.
September 19, 200718 yr Author Luke meanwhile had fallen into a restless sleep his pain medication having started to wear off.
September 19, 200718 yr Jaime had gone to do her homework in her room and so didn't hear him moving about restlessly. Jesse was in the living room with Daisy...he was reading and Daisy was getting ready for work.
September 19, 200718 yr Author Luke continued to toss and turn nt really making any noise, just moving about restlessly.Daisy quickly said her good bye to Jesse and ran out of the house, knowing if she was late she'd hear it from Boss. Jumping in her jeep she took of intending to take afew cross country shortcuts on the way.
September 19, 200718 yr Jesse smiled and called the usual warning to be careful as Daisy hurried out the house, shaking his head a little as he returned to his paper, not hearing Luke tossing and turning.Bo continued along the back roads, his mind buzzing as to what he should do about Troy.
