Author's Note: Because of resent events here in Minnesota I wanted to write something about what happened to us on Wednesday August 1, 2007. As many of you may have heard the 35W Bridge in Minneapolis collapsed for no apparent reason… luckily none of my family or friends were hurt (at least that I have heard) I am still waiting on my great aunt and second cousin to contact us. I was at work and was very glad that we had sent our hotel guests a different route to get into the city!!!!! Let me know what you think of it… oh and for those of you reading Mother's Day Due Over I am working on the next chapter and will get it out as soon as I finish it… Happy reading and remember Comments are welcomed and appreciated.

Outside West Beverly High: Last Day Of Summer School… August 2, 2007

Cassie is sitting on the ground by her favorite tree with her best friend Amber, talking about all the things that they were going to do for the rest of the summer. They had so much they wanted to do but Cassie had promised that she would baby-sit her three cousins and Steve's daughter, but that wasn't going to stop her from going to the beach with her boyfriend, Jordan, and best friend, Amber. Cassie was talking about what she was going to do with her cousins when Jordan walked up to them and sat down.

"So I figured that since they are all under six that we could have a sand castle contest with them… what do you think?" Cassie asked Amber.

"I think you are going to need some help supervising four kids under six." Amber said.

"Well Zachariah is only four months old so he's a piece of cake… and Skyler is four so he won't be too much trouble. Maddie is two, also not a big deal… the one I am worried about is Mariah… she's six and has Aunt Brenda's spunk." Cassie said rolling her eyes.

"And don't forget your Uncle Dylan's attitude on life…" Jordan said sitting down next to her.

Cassie didn't realize that he had been standing behind her the whole time listening, but she wasn't about to get freaked out about it either. It didn't really bother her that she never knew when he was going to surprise her… in fact, she loved surprises! It was just that lately it had been getting a little out of hand. As she playfully slapped him for startling her she noticed her aunt, Erin walking by herself and decided to run over to her.

"Hey guys I'll be right back." Cassie said as she got up and ran over to Erin. "Hey Erin wait up!" She called as she raced to catch up.

"Hi." Erin said sadly.

"Okay what's wrong?" Cassie asked as she stopped her from walking any further.

"My parents are at each other's throats again…" Erin began.

"As apposed to any other day?" Cassie somewhat questioned.

"It's not funny Cass… Everyone in school knows what's going on and I'm sick of people telling me things are going to get better… because they're not getting any better. I just want it all to stop… the fighting, the yelling, and the rumors. I don't want them to split up again." Erin said knowing that Cassie was there for her whenever she needed her.

"Do you wanna stay at our house tonight? I'm sure my mom won't mind!" Cassie said almost reading Erin's mind.

"Yeah… I think talking to my sister might help… after all she went through this like four times." Erin tried to joke but it wasn't as funny as it was in her head.

"Five… if you count the first time your parents split, we were still living there." Cassie said as they walked back to the group.

Brandon And Kelly's House…

Brandon had gotten home rather early for it being a Thursday and Kelly was a little surprised, she wasn't really sure what to think about it. So instead of getting in his face about it like she normally did, she just let it go. Something she had been really working on over the past few months. Brandon saw her standing in the kitchen preparing a snack for the girls when they got home and decided to put his arms around her. She snickered a little, as she turned her head and gave him a quick kiss before she went back to what she was doing.

"So I got a call today..." Brandon began waiting for her to say something.

"Sweetie you get calls every day… remember you do work at a newspaper!" Kelly said wondering what had made him forget that little detail.

"Would you just let me finish?" Brandon asked her.

"Sorry." Kelly said as she toned down on the sarcasm.

"Do you remember what they showed on the news last night… about the bridge in Minnesota?" Brandon said as his voice changed a little.

"Yeah… what about it?" Kelly asked wondering where it was he was going with this.

"Well I used to drive on that Bridge all the time when I lived in Minneapolis… it's the 35W main bridge into the city… it runs between Washington Avenue and Riverside… the call I got was from my Aunt… you remember Bobby right?" Brandon asked looking straight into her eyes.

"Yeah he was the one who came to visit you when we were in High school… did something happen to him?" Kelly asked a little worried.

"Well we don't know for sure but Bobby and his wife Lindsey were driving to a friend's house in the suburbs when the bridge collapsed. They haven't heard anything from them since they left… and search and rescue is still pulling people out of the Mississippi River." Brandon said neglecting to mention that so far all the people they were pulling out today were just dead bodies.

"Oh My God!" Kelly said a little shocked that something like this could actually happen to someone they knew.

It was at that very moment that Cassie, Kaile, and Erin walked in through the front door of the house. Brandon and Kelly hadn't talked about how they were going to tell the girls about their second cousins, but they both knew that they would have too and soon. Kelly smiled when she saw her sister with them, yeah it wasn't the best timing for them, but then again, Erin had been having a rough time coping with all the fighting going on at home.

"Hey Mom, is it okay if Erin stays over tonight?" Cassie asked as she sat down at the table.

"Girls we have something we need to tell you." Brandon said not wanting to wait to tell them.

"Brandon not now… Erin you can stay as long as you need to." Kelly said as she gave her sister a hug.

"They need to know about this…" Brandon started but his eight-year-old daughter cut him off.

"Is this about that Bridge that fell down in Minnesota yesterday?" Kaile asked curiously.

"Yes sweetie it is… you see Daddy's cousin Bobby and his wife Lindsey may have been on that bridge when it fell." Brandon began again but this time it was Cassie that cut him off.

"Is Bobby okay?" Cassie all but shouted… Bobby was her favorite person on the Walsh side… well other than Cindy of course.

"We don't know… no one has heard from them since the bridge collapsed.

Cassie just stood there in shock… she didn't want to believe that her favorite person in the world was missing and no one knew where he was. She had heard about the San Francisco earthquake that had collapsed Interstate 880's Double Decker Bridge onto itself in 1989 but the 35W Bridge just collapsed, there was no reason. Erin had heard about the bridge, but she had no idea who it was that they were talking about. Kaile didn't really know what to think; after all she was still a little young to grasp how bad the situation really was.

"Are they gonna find him Daddy?" Kaile asked after a little while.

"I sure hope so baby." Brandon said as she crawled into his lap.

In truth he didn't know if Bobby and Lindsey were even alive… chances were that if they hadn't found them by now they weren't going too. Kelly knew what Brandon was thinking… because it was the same thing she was thinking. She really liked Bobby and she knew that Brandon hated to sit there and wait… he wanted to go out there and help and in truth… so did she, but before they could do that she had to help her sister first.
