Summery: Noah is heartbroken when Kit decides to live in the city to start fresh, and he tries to get her to stay trying to avoid the real reason he doesn't want her to go!

The palace

"Hey Noah" Scott called as he got back from work,

"Hey, whats up?" Noah called back

"Nothing new" said Scott falling limply on the sofa exhausted

"Is Dani coming round tonight?" asked Noah, "If she is I can always make myself scarce?"

"No, it's alright, me and Kit are going down to the Sutherlands, were celebrating Kit coming home!"

"Oh yeah, how is Kit?" asked Noah.

"She seems fine, but I'm worried she's just putting on a brave face for mum! Can you talk to her again!"

"Why me?!" asked Noah

"Well 'cause you're her counsellor, she listens to you!"

"I've already done what I can, she's on her own from here!"

"Come on man, I'm just asking for you're help"

"Look", said Noah raising his voice "I've done all I can, if I help her now she'll never be able to deal with anything on her own!"

"Yeah", said Scott backing down, realising Noah is right "I'm gonna go and have a shower then" he said going upstairs to get ready for the Sutherlands.

The Sutherlands

"Hey", Scott called knocking on the door of the Sutherlands! Dani came up to him and greeted him with a kiss.

"Get a room," said Jade coming up behind them. Dani silently cursed herself, she had already forgotten that she had just broken up with Nick and was still hurting!

"Sorry Jade" Dani apologised as she led Scott and Kit in!

They were halfway through dinner, nobody had spoken for about 10 minutes, none of the others were fazed by it but Kit couldn't take the silence anymore, she decided that there was no time like the present to break the news!

"..Er.... I was gonna wait until after dinner to tell you this but....er...... I've decided to leave the Bay and go and live in the city with Grandma!" said Kit waiting for the explosion!

"What!" exclaimed Beth, "why, I...I thought you were happy here, what's changed??!!"

Kit hated to see her mother look upset but she couldn't stay anymore! She took a deep breath!

"Its just after everything that's happened I want to start fresh, somewhere where no one knows my past. I'll still come and visit mum, but I can't stay here, I cant!" explained Kit on the verge of tears.

"But why kit I mean..."

Give me one good reason to stay!!" cut in Kit, getting angrier by the second! There was a silence.

"Us" said Beth simply.

Kit sighed, there was no way she could do this without hurting anyone"

"What about Noah?!", Scott asked. Kits head shot up like it did every time Noah's name was mentioned. Everyone was staring at Scott intently!
