Chapter 4

Tim shut Siobhan's door behind him and stood out in the hall for a second to think. Alex? Called her? To talk?

Could I have some competition or something? he thought. He shook his head and went to go find Didi.

Didi was sitting with Crystal in her room, watching TV. Lee was visiting as well, in the corner with his own guitar, fooling around.

Tim walked in. "Knock, knock," he called. They all greeted him simultaneously.

"What's up, man?" Crystal asked.

"Looking for Didi. Siobhan told me I'd probably find her here," he answered.

"And here I am!" Didi raised her hand. "What's the deal?"

"Do you have my guitar music?" Tim asked her.

"Oh yeah! Lee's actually using it now," Didi nodded towards the other boy in the corner.

"Here you go, dude," Lee said, giving it to Tim.

"Thanks, man." Tim turned to leave, then stopped, looking at Lee in the corner for another second. He remembered how Lee had hugged Siobhan earlier in the day. Alex may not be the only one, he thought.

"Oh, Didi, Siobhan's off the phone with Alex, so you can go to bed if you want," Tim said loudly before exiting.

"Really? Awesome. I'm beat." Didi stood up and headed for the door too.

"Alex Lambert?" Lee asked Tim.

Tim tried to suppress a smile. "Yup. He just asked about her flight and everything. How sweet. Well, I'm tired. Night, guys." Tim left, Didi behind him.

He walked with Didi to her room, and once she was safely behind the door allowed himself to smile. Tim Urban had Lee Dewyze's number. He was sure of it.
