BoJamesDuke Posted October 11, 2007 Report Posted October 11, 2007 Helps him indoors and to his room, laying him down on his bed."There...do you want anythin'?" Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted October 11, 2007 Author Report Posted October 11, 2007 Luke shook his head gently as he adjusted his leg. "No...I'm fine." Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted October 11, 2007 Report Posted October 11, 2007 Jaime nodded a little, grabbing a pillow and putting it gently under his casted leg. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted October 11, 2007 Author Report Posted October 11, 2007 "Thanks,"said Luke quietly. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted October 11, 2007 Report Posted October 11, 2007 Jaime smiled and nodded, before saying with a smirk."You do realize this means you dont get this kinda treatment on Father's Day right..." Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted October 11, 2007 Author Report Posted October 11, 2007 Luke managed a smile back. "Don't worry... I got all the father' day gift I want...right there," he said in a rare tender momet... brushing his daughters cheek with his thumb. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted October 12, 2007 Report Posted October 12, 2007 Jaime bit her lip softly as he did, leaning down and hugging him again, resting her head gently on his shoulder."I love you Daddy..." Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted October 12, 2007 Author Report Posted October 12, 2007 "Love you too sweetheart," said Luke softly with a crack in his usually so strong voice. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted October 12, 2007 Report Posted October 12, 2007 Jaime sighed softly, just staying where she was as she spoke softly."You know...Uncle Bo don't hate ya...right...he's probably just...just...upset an' tired...an' worried...just like you are..." Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted October 12, 2007 Author Report Posted October 12, 2007 "Yeah," he answered absently. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted October 12, 2007 Report Posted October 12, 2007 Jaime swallowed softly, hating when her dad was like this. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted October 13, 2007 Author Report Posted October 13, 2007 "M'sorry," he said softly. "I ...I just need some rest is all...things...gettint me..." Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted October 13, 2007 Report Posted October 13, 2007 "S'okay...I know..."Jaime said, sitting up again. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted October 13, 2007 Author Report Posted October 13, 2007 Luke la back his head and sighed. It was true things were getting to him but more true was the fact that he felt like a failure. He had thought he could andle the farm with Jesse being ill, but as becoming obvious, he couldn't. He had thought he had done the right thing keeping it from Bo, and Jesse had thought that too, but now Bo was angry at him, which hurt the Duke boy far more than his broken foot. The issue with Troy had brought up some hard memories for him also and they bothered him more than he cared to admit. It was simply too much... Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted October 13, 2007 Report Posted October 13, 2007 (Whose been listening to some John Schneider songs then? lol I found the title of one John Schneider song in your post Daisy, can you see which one it is?)Jaime watched Luke for a little bit. She knew Luke wouldn't tell her anything that was bothering him, she expected that them being father and daughter and everything...but still she wished sometimes he would treat her like the friend she had started out to be to him too.Nodding softly, she leant over and kissed her Daddy's cheek before getting up and wandering out the room to find something to do. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted October 13, 2007 Author Report Posted October 13, 2007 (LOL Hard memories)Luke watched her go with a soft sigh. He loved her more than anything...and it was because of that he refused to share his troubles with her. He didn't want her to have the same worries and fears he had. He wanted her to have the happy carefree life she deserved. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted October 13, 2007 Report Posted October 13, 2007 (lol yup)Jaime looked around the farmhouse for something to do. Daisy had gone to work and Bo...was doing whatever he was supposed to be doing. Biting her lip, she glanced to the clock and saw it was going to be a few hours before Jenni arrived. She smiled and headed over to the phone, picking up the reciever and dialling her boyfriend's number. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted October 13, 2007 Author Report Posted October 13, 2007 Luke meanwhile lay huddled on his bed trying to think out an answer for everything though he knew in his heart that he couldnt. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted October 15, 2007 Report Posted October 15, 2007 Several hours later, Jenni pulled up into the Duke Farm drive way. Jaime was making Luke a coffee in the kitchen, Bo was still gone and hadn't called since he had yelled at Luke over the phone, Daisy was due back from work soon and Jaime didn't know when Jesse was going to be back.Jenni smiled as she got out her car and looked the farm over...it hadn't changed much over the years...she had spent a lot of her childhood here, just hanging out with Luke, and occasionally Bo, after school and trying to figure out a way to get out of doing her homework...as did Luke. They never came up with anything, but they had come up with some pretty funny excuses that ranged way past the traditional 'My Dog ate it'.Smiling, she headed up to the old farmhouse and knocked on the door.

DaisyMaeDuke Posted October 15, 2007 Author Report Posted October 15, 2007 Jaime set down the cupshe had gotten out and peeped out the window before going to open the door. "Hi, " she greeted. "Daddy's in his room." Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 Jenni smiled to her and greeted her back, nodding as she stepped inside and glanced around."Is he sleeping?" Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Posted October 16, 2007 Jaime shrugged. "He should be...but I kinda doubt it... he was upset." Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 Jenni nodded a little, figuring with everything that she had seen going on with Bo at the hospital, she knew Luke wouldn't be far behind him in the emotional scale...if not already way surpassed him. She started to head to his room before stopping."Oh I forgot...this is for you..."She pulled out a small tub of cream and handed it to Jaime. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Posted October 16, 2007 Jaime looked down at it then up at her quizically. "What is it?" Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 "It's a cream that should help lighten those scars up some...use it twice a day, once when you get up and once after you's had a shower. It won't get rid of them completly, but it'll help make them less visable..."Jenni replied with a smile. Quote
