In love… With me?

I woke up when something shifted underneath my head. I opened my eyes and saw I was curled into a ball next to the window. My head was in Seth's lap. He was playing with my hair. I didn't feel like talking so I closed my eyes and listened to the conversation.

"Those guys back there, they where the ones who where chasing us earlier, right?"

"Yes." Sara answered.

"It is vital that you take us to their base of operation." Seth said. Really? WHY would he want to go there?

"Wait, you want me to take you to the guys who are trying to kill you?" Seth must've agreed because Jack continued with a very important life lesson. "Let me explain how we do things on our planet. People who want you dead, you avoid. That way you… Mm… Stay alive? Make sense?" Jack told Seth off. Seth of course had a smart comeback.

"No one on your planet will 'stay alive' if we do not return to our planet. In order to return, we need our ship. Those men who are trying to kill us have stolen our ship. Make sense?" I bust out laughing. Everyone in the cab jumped about a foot in the air. I sat up and scooted over to the window, but an arm snaked around my waist and pulled me back to Seth. I rolled my eyes but blushed. I put my head on his shoulder.

"Where do you suggest we begin our search?" Sara asked.

"I don't suggest we begin searching at all! I suggest we go back to Vegas so I can drop you off where you got on. You too." He looked at Junkyard.

"Just as I thought. No human is going to help us Sara. Especially not this human." Seth said to Sara, forgetting he was holding a human his arms. I punched his shoulder hard. Seth looked at me.

"Idiot. I'm human too and I'm not going to abandon you." I told him quietly.

"Hey, hey. Easy on the human bashing, all right? Some of my best friends just so happen to be human.

Even if I where to help you I wouldn't know where to begin. I don't know anything about UFO's or aliens, or-" Sara cut him off.

"Who is Doctor Alex Freedman?" She asked. I choked.

"She's actually someone who can help. And for the record, she happens to be human." I said. Seth glared at me, but didn't remove his arm from my shoulders. Eh, whatever.

Jack turned and stared at me.

"How do you know Dr. Freedman?"

"She's my aunt." I said simply. Jack blinked and Sara and Seth stared at me.

"What?" I said defensively, "It's a small world." Jack rolled his eyes and turned back to the road.

Seth looked at me.

"Lane, I didn't mean you when I said humans. You aren't exactly human in my eyes."

"Um. Thanks?" I was really confused. Sara face palmed.

"He means that you aren't entirely human. We think that you have alien blood."

"Oh." I blinked. I put my head back on Seth's shoulder.

Sara's POV

When Lane put her head back on Seth's shoulder she missed the small smile of contentment that past on his face. He leaned down and rested his head on hers. I blinked. Oh my word. Seth is in LOVE. I think. I'm not sure.

But I know how to find out.

This is weird. Why do I like her? She is annoying. And beautiful, kind, smart, funny, and strong. Oh that's why.

I giggled. Lane had fallen asleep. Seth pulled her into his lap. He put her head in the crook of his neck and wound his arms around her waist.

"I love you." He whispered and kissed her temple. Lane (still asleep) put her hands on his chest and nuzzled his neck. He blushed. I giggled again. Jack glanced back. Even he had to smile.
