We've All Got To Grow Up Sometime

Luke got up getting some painkiller out of the cabinet, getting a glass of water also, and taking them to Bo. carefully he put the pills in his mouth and held the water to his lips. "That should help." He supposed he was being a little over-cautious. Truth was though, Luke had learned the hard way that his loved ones could be torn from him in an instant. He wasn't letting that happen again. Not on his watch.

Having sat there for a little while by herself, Cassie hadn't crossed paths with anyone. She had sat by that dusty road, dirtying her dress and silent. Even if a few angry tears streamed her face, no sobs escaped her lips. Maybe she cared more about Luke than she ought to, but she thought she owed. She did owe him.

Taking a deep breath, she sighed out loud. Suddenly, with all the strength she could muster, she forced herself on to her feet. Cassie could've just stood there or walked back to the hotel or did anything she wanted at that moment. So, she turned to lose herself in the patch of woods behind. Truthfully, she wouldn't have been lost, but she wanted to just take a walk where no one would notice her. Things had changed, but she figured that they hadn't changed enough that she wouldn't know where she was going. Plus, the walk would be peaceful..

Bo swallowed softly as he looked back at his cousin, it hurt him to see him so upset and the worst thing was the fact that he was this upset nearly all the time. He couldn't mention Sara's name without tears being shed, he couldn't even think about her without clinging to Abi like his lifeline...he couldn't look at his own daughter without thinking about Sara...and so the cycle kept going on and on and on. He wanted Luke to be better and stop being so depressed more than Cassie did, but breaking him or taking him down to the very bottom....that was what had got him so mad. Luke was already there, he'd been there ever since Sara had passed on...he just didn't understand how Cassie could think like that.

Removing his hands from the ice, the painkillers having kicked in some now, he headed over to his older cousin and put an arm around his shoulders.

"I know ya miss her brother...we all do..."

Luke trembled under his hand. He was starting to cry again and he hated himself for that. His eyes shifted down, looking at a loose floorboard as if it would stand up and talk at any moment, at the same time begging himself to keep his composure. It didn't seem to work though as two large tears escaped his eyes.

"Why Bo? Sara never did nothin' but good...t' everyone...wh-why?!" He choked again his hands flying to his eyes in a vain attempt to hold back his tears.

Bo sighed softly and squeezed his shoulders softly with his arm, shaking his head.

"No one ever knows why these things happen Luke...they just do...I mean we all can't live forever, that's undeniable...some people are taken earlier than others through no fault of there own...its just life...some people sure don't deserve it and we know that better than anyone...but as hard as it is to accept, you have to accept it sometime...you'll never stop missing her, I know that....but she wouldn't want you to live like this...she wouldn't want you to not be able to mention her name because you miss her. She'd want you to move on with your life, with Abi, and remember the good times you had with each other..."
