Luke nodded a little, swallowing hard.

"So...the only way to stop a loop is to break one part of it...to do that we have to stop your way of thinking in just one part to make it all change eventually...however I cannot be the one to tell you what to change first...you have to do that..."

"I wanna change all of me...I hate me..." he added sounding like a helpless child.

"But if you change all of you, then where's the person that Bo loves so much gonna go? What's gonna happen to Bo if you leave...because if you change all of you, you'll no longer be you..."

She said softly.

"I don' wanna be me no more...I want rid of me..." he explained softly.

"Why? There's nothing wrong with who you are Luke...you may have some insecurities but everyone does...I can help you with them...get you back on track...you can never change who you are Luke, its not possible..."

Luke looked down tears falling once more. "I just don't wanna hurt no one else...seems like...s'all I do is hurt people."

"I'm sure that's not true either...its probably because your so upset, any flaws you might have, any fears are magnified greater than they should be, making things appear worse than they actually are...i'll bet in reality you have nothing to worry about...course we can wait for Bo to get here then ask him..."

"What if...he don't come..." choked Luke, not sure of anything anymore, even his cousin.

"He promised he would...so i'm sure he will. He seems like he cares for you a lot, and I can see normally you two are very close...i'll bet he's on his way right now..."

Well...Bo would have been....had he not been sitting in the front seat of Dixie fast asleep...still on the farm...

Minutes turned to hours, and still Bo did not show up. Luke sat, huddled into himself on the bed staring out the window tears trickling down. He knew all along that Bo wouldn't come. He knew he had ruined everything...but a part of him still had wanted to believe him. Not anymore...he accepted the fact that his family had left him. It was what he deserved.

He hadn't spoken anymore to Sara. He hadn't eaten. He just sat as the day went on, waiting for Bo, though Bo never came.

Sara kept trying the house phone, sighing as she continued to get no answer...looking at her notes, she sighed and tried the other contact number she had there - the number for the Boar's Nest.

"Boar's Nest this is Daisy speakin," answered the middle Duke cousin with a flip of her hair.

Sara looked down at her notes again and saw that that was indeed the person she needed to speak to.

"Hey there Daisy, this is Sara from Altanta General Hospital...I was wondering if you have any idea where Bo is...he was supposed to come in today, he promised Luke he would, but he hasn't turned up and i'm getting no answer at your home..."

Daisy frowned. "No...I dunno...but I'm about to get off work...I could go home an' find out."

"I'd appriciate it...if you could let me know as well so I can tell Luke..."

Daisy nodded. "Thanks for calling." She hurriedly got off the phone, bidding goodbye to everyone before making tracks for home, having taken the truck.

Bo was still leant back in the driving seat of Dixie, fast asleep because of the sleepless nights the worry and stress had started bringing on.

Daisy pulled into the driveway seeing Bo's long legs sticking out of Dixie. "Bo!"

Bo jerked awake sleepily as he heard his name called, frowning a little as he sat up still half asleep.

"What are you doing sleeping out here?!" demanded Daisy, half afraid he was ill. "Are you ok?!"

Bo blinked a little, looking around before realizing where he was, his eyes widening.

"Oh no...I musta fell asleep...god Daisy what time is it?!"

Daisy swallowed. "It's 4:00pm. I just got off work."

Bo moaned in distress, quickly getting into Dixie properly and turning on the ignition.

"I dont believe it...the one thing I promised him..."

"Be careful Bo...a few more minutes ain't gonna matter much."
