December 31, 200718 yr Author Bo didn't answer this time, starting to get tired of that game as he went back to playing with Luke's buttons.
December 31, 200718 yr Realizing that Bo had been distracted again, he smiled a little. "Guess that's close enough..." with that he tickled Bo a little.
December 31, 200718 yr Author Bo giggled in surprise as Luke tickled him, wriggling in his lap as he laughed. That was how Lavinia found them when she walked in a few minutes later with her basket full of vegtables, setting them down."Now Luke you be careful please, I'd rather not have Bo having an asthma attack if we can help it..."
December 31, 200718 yr "Auntie...we's just playin..." began Luke hating that every time he played with Bo warnings to be careful came at him.
December 31, 200718 yr Author "I know your just playing Luke..." Lavinia said patiently, getting this every time she reminded him. "But you have to be careful...I tell you this for a reason every time hunny..."
December 31, 200718 yr Author Bo however didn't really seem to care, burbling away happily to himself as he played with his toes.
December 31, 200718 yr Author Lavinia looked over as Luke muttered miserably, sighing gently."I know its not Luke...but that's life sweetie..."
December 31, 200718 yr Luke sighed again, holding the little boy carefully in his arms. "Why's Bo gotta be sick?"
December 31, 200718 yr Author Lavinia shook her head, coming into the lounge with them and sitting beside the two boys, stroking through Bo's hair softly who, for a moment, looked startled as to where the action came from before smiling and giggling as he saw Auntie."I don't know Luke...he just is..."
December 31, 200718 yr "Auntie...will Bo ever be able to play with me?" asked Luke his lip quivering a little.
December 31, 200718 yr Author Auntie bit her lip gently, looking over the two boys, sighing."I don't know Luke...some children grow out of asthma as they grow up...he's always gonna have to be careful..."
December 31, 200718 yr Luke nodded a little but brightened as he thought of something. "Auntie! Guess what?!" he said the blue eyes on the verge of tears a moment ago now sparkling with excitement.
January 1, 200818 yr Author Lavinia looked to him, amazed at how the young boy could switch between emotions so quickly."What?"
January 1, 200818 yr Luke nodded almost bouncing with excitement. "Yeah! Watch...Bo...Bo say Luke...Luke..."
January 1, 200818 yr Author Bo looked up as he was spoken to, watching Luke talk to him before burbling happily and going back to playing with Luke's buttons.
January 1, 200818 yr "Bo...Bo say it...say Luke...Luke..." persisted Luke not wanting to look like he was lying in front of Auntie.
January 1, 200818 yr Author Lavinia shook her head, knowing how Bo worked."Luke, I don't doubt he said it...but if you pay attention to him he won't say it because he doesn't need the attention...if you leave him and just act like your not paying attention he'll probably do it again..."
January 1, 200818 yr Luke sighed. "Okay." He then set Bo on th e floor and picked up a car magazine thumbing through the pages though he couldnt read a lot of the words yet.
January 1, 200818 yr Author Bo looked surprised as he was put down on the floor, looking between Luke and his Auntie. He crawled forward again and tugged on Luke's pant leg, making small noises.
January 1, 200818 yr Luke just kept flipping through the magazine despite the little tugs on his pantleg.
January 1, 200818 yr Author Bo whimpered a little, tugging more before saying."Wuke...Wuke..."Lavinia bit her lip as Bo said it, putting a hand across her mouth."Oh my..."
