Well, I finally got to a computer with internet access, AND a word document program. HELLZ YEAH! haha! So, here it is Chapter 2! Please R&R!

"I don't think Prosper's going to be happy that you told Bo he could get a cake." Riccio finally spoke up.

"Prosper's busy at the moment." Scipio said in monotone.

Riccio blinked. He thought Scipio would surely backtalk him, but he didn't. He guessed it was good that he didn't get yelled at, but getting some sort of emotion from Scipio would have been fine. He lifted his shoulders slightly, and looked back at the ground. He couldn't talk to Scipio anymore.

"We're here, we're here!" Bo exclaimed as he leapt onto the fountains edge.

Prosper lunged forward, eyes wide, his arms extended towards Bo. He looked as if he was trying to grab him and pull him down incase he fell in.

"Get down from there!"

Giggling, Hornet spoke up; "Oh, Prop. Leave him be, he's only having fun!"

"Yeah, Prop!" Bo said, sticking out his tongue, and giggling before he began to slowly walk on the fountain's edge.

Scipio laughed softly, eyes shining at Prosper, who still looked worried. He loved how Prosper was so worried about Bo all the time. He loved the look that stayed plastered on his face; worry, distraught. He just wanted to put an arm around him, and whisper into his ear; "It's OK, Prop, he'll be fine."

Meanwhile, Riccio had disappeared behind the fountain with Mosca, who decided to travel just a bit further from the group, so he could sit on the edge of a small dock, and pretend to fish with the small, homemade fishing pole he had made out of a stick, and some string.

Hornet had dragged Prosper to a bench, so she could sit and read the book she brought, and so Prosper could still keep an eye on Bo, but only so he was closer to her. Scipio was still standing by the fountain, looking up at it, and smiling as Bo came back around to smile at him.

"Hey, Scip?" Bo asked as he stopped in front of him, arms still out to his side, to keep his balance.

"Yeah?" Scipio smiled at the boy, hands now in his pockets.

"Can you take me to get my cake now?"

"Yeah, sure."

Bo giggled in delight, and smiled brightly at Scipio; "Catch me!" He exclaimed as he threw his arms in the air.

Scipio laughed, and removed his hand from his pockets. Bo leapt down into Scipio's outstretched arms. He giggled madly, and Scipio laughed softly, a smile plastered on both their faces.

From the bench Prosper watched. At first he got worried as Bo jumped down, but when he saw Scipio catch him he felt secure. Scipio held onto Bo tight, so he wouldn't drop him, but still loose enough to not hurt him. Prosper smiled as he watched the two of them. Scipio had let Bo down, and Bo grabbed onto his hand. It was cute. Almost as if Scipio was Bo's brother. He had never seen Scipio look so nice, and be so kind, even to Bo. He wanted to join them. Were they going somewhere?

He turned to Hornet, who was still deep in her book. He looked back at Scipio, and stood up. He took one step towards them, and stopped.

"Where are you going?" Hornet asked, now looking at him.

"To see Scip, and Bo."

Hornet squinted her eyes, and looked at the two, they were now walking off.

"It looks like they're busy."

Prosper blinked, and looked back at them. Indeed they were walking off. Bo skipped, and Scipio walked slowly, still holding the younger one's hand.

"Just sit back down, I'm sure they'll be back soon. He's probably taking Bo to the bathroom or something." Hornet said, and began to read her book once more.

Prosper frowned, and sat back down. Where were they going? He watched as they got lost in the crowd of people. He bit down on his lip. Scipio had been acting strange lately. He always seemed upset about something. That was the first time in a while that he had seen him smile so kindly. It was a smile that he missed, and loved to see on the Thief Lord.
