Sylvie was devastated, hearing those words out of Antonio after she had just realized exactly what she wanted. He was going on a blind date, she knew it was her fault, that she was the one who wanted to keep it casual to protect her own heart. She didn't have any right to expect Antonio to wait around forever for her. And she knew he wasn't a mind reader there was no way he could know what she was feeling and wanted. She felt like vomiting, she had to get away as fast as she could.

Getting to her car, she reached into her pocket for her keys to find they weren't there.

"Damn it!" Sylvie sighed and headed back towards Molly's where she was hoping she would find them quickly. She couldn't remember whether she had actually put them in her pocket or had sat them on a table when she met Gabby earlier.

Kelly was sitting at the bar and noticed Sylvie walk back in, she looked like she was going to cry.

"Brett" Kelly called to her. Sylvie slipped a smile onto her face and walked toward him.

"What's wrong?" Kelly asked concerned for the blonde.

"I think I lost my keys" she replied.

"Hey Otis, has anyone turned in Brett's keys?" Kelly yelled.

Otis checked the lock box and shook his head at Kelly.

"Ugh, I need to find them or I won't be able to get my car home tonight" Sylvie was visibly upset, tears threatening to spill any second.

Kelly got off the barstool and started searching the bar yelling at several other guys to get up and help in the search for them.

Twenty minutes later and her keys were still nowhere to be found.

"Someone must have taken them by accident, maybe someone will turn them in by the end of the night, do you need a ride home?" Kelly asked.

"I was really hoping to avoid home for a little while, Cruz is there and I really wanted to go set in the parking lot in my car for some peace and quiet but sure if you can run me home that would be great." Sylvie sounded as if she needed a stiff drink and someone to listen to her complain Kelly thought to himself.

"Tell you what, why don't we go back to my place and just hang out and talk or just sit. I'll even lock myself in my room and you can have the whole apartment to just be alone" Kelly grinned at her.

Sylvie thought about it, Otis and Cruz rarely let her just be, they were always talking and never left her alone with just her thoughts. She knew Kelly wasn't big on talking and feelings and he would happily just let her sit in silence or maybe she could confide in him. Maybe she needed a friend who was completely removed from the situation, Gabby was great but she is Antonio's sister.

"Thanks, Kelly, maybe that's what I need" Sylvie was hoping that this decision would bring her some clarity.

Fifteen minutes later Sylvie and Kelly had arrived a his apartment.

"So how do you want to play this kid, am I locking myself in my room or…what?" he was trying to joke with her to get a genuine smile but she was having no part of it.

"No, no you can stay…I think I really just need someone who isn't directly involved in my life to listen and maybe offer some advice, if you think you can handle that. I mean you can completely shut me down at anytime if you don't want to hear it after I start complaining." Sylvie was starting to ramble, which she did often when she was feeling nervous, she could hear her voice getting higher and herself starting to ramble but she was at a complete loss at stopping it.

Kelly smirked and grabbed her shoulders looking her square in the eyes. "Hey, calm down, I don't care what it is, you talk, I will listen and give my award winning advice after." He chuckled at his own joke, clearly amused with himself.

Sylvie couldn't help but smile at him. "Oh, shut it." She joked back, slapping him lightly on the shoulder, not many people got to see this side of Kelly and she really enjoyed it when he was being silly.

Sylvie padded over to Kelly's sofa and plopped down on it, immediately making herself at home, she kicked off her flats and tucked her feet up under herself and grabbed the throw off the arm of the sofa. She had hung out here a lot with Stella and Kelley when Stella still lived here and felt comfortable.

Kelly headed for the kitchen and grabbed two glasses and a bottle of whisky. If he is going to do this he is going to need alcohol.

Kelly made his way over to the couch and set down next to her and turned his body to face her and poured both of them a drink.

"So what's got you so upset tonight, huh?" Kelly just went for it figuring the faster she got whatever was bothering her out, the faster she would get back to her bright, bubbly self.

"Antonio" she sighed. Kelly knew that they were still seeing each other off and on as they were frequently at Molly's while he was there. They pretended to not be together but always left at the same time, it was quite obvious to anyone who paid the least bit attention.

Sylvie could feel the tears about to fall "Sorry but I'm probably gonna cry at you and I'm an ugly crier." she wanted to give him fair warning but he just smiled and motioned for her to carry on.

"I thought I was pregnant" she looked at Kelly for any hint of shock but there was none, "I'm not though and Gabby advised me that I didn't need to tell him because there was nothing to tell" she could hear the absurdity of the advice as she was saying it.

"You want my opinion?" Kelly asked, he was willing to let her speak for as long as she needed to before offering advice and opinions.

Sylvie nodded, "insert your comments anywhere Kelly, I won't mind I promise".

"Well if my uh…whatever you two are…thought she was pregnant I would want her to come to me…he's a good guy, probably one of the only ones I would ever trust with you. I think he deserves to know and you deserve to have him there to go through the emotions with you, not alone." Kelly cared deeply for Sylvie, once upon a time he thought he liked her and could see a possible future with her; he thought she was one of the best people he had ever met. But after seeing how she was with Antonio, he gave up on that idea, clearly they were soul mates, everyone could see it except for the two of them.

Sylvie contemplated it for a minute and sighed, "he told me tonight that he was going on a blind date and it hurt. I was ready to tell him that I wanted to try again but…"

"Then tell him" Kelly interrupted her "that's all that man wants from you, lord Sylvie, I wish you could see the way he looks at you when you two are pretending to ignore each other. He obviously thinks the world revolves around you. You're the only one who can't see it."

Sylvie blushed "No he doesn't, I think I'm just convenient and familiar."

Kelly was starting to get exasperated but didn't want Sylvie to feel like he was getting upset with her. He rubbed his palms down his face and rubbed his eyes, the effects of the alcohol were starting to take its toll. "Okay just talk and I'll listen."

Sylvie shook her head, "I think I just really need to go to bed, can you drive me home?"

"It's 1:30 in the morning, why don't you just crash in the guestroom and I'll drop you in the morning, is that cool? I'll give you a t-shirt and shorts to sleep in." Kelly was hoping she would agree, he didn't think he should be driving anywhere.

Her head was starting to spin and she really just needed to lie down before she vomited. "Okay, but are you sure that's okay? I can call an Uber." He threw some clothes at her, "No way in hell am I sending you in an Uber in the middle of the night, Antonio would kill me if something happened to you, now go to bed" He said dead serious.
