A/N Hey guys, I forgot to say it in the last chapter but I would like to thank everyone who has reviewed and helped me break through the 100-review barrier! It is so awesome that so many people like this story, I had no idea it would be so successful when I started it. So, thank you so much and I promise I'll try and not let you down with the rest that is to come!

Btw, just so you know, at the moment I'm also working on another Kessi fanfic as well but I've decided not to post it up until I've got a fair way into it because I want to concentrate more on this one and don't want to disappoint people if I can't update that one very quickly because I'm working on this one.

Just thought you might like to know and I'll tell you when I put it up on the site. If you want to know what it's about tell me in a review and I'll post it up with the next chapter, if you want it to be surprise I won't say a word. :P

Summary: What would the show have been like if Jessi came into it at the same time as Kyle? If Kyle wasn't alone? If the Tragers gained two more children? KESSI

Disclaimer: I own nothing of Kyle xy, although I wish I did so that I could keep it from being cancelled :'(


Chapter 10

Kyle and Jessi sat in the waiting room of Stephens work, drawing more pictures. Kyle stopped for a moment, an unsettled look on his face.

'Why would Stephen lie?' He asked Jessi quietly almost as if he was talking to himself, referring to an incident in the elevator on the way up.

Jessi paused in her dotting as well looking up at him. 'I don't know,' she said, shrugging and not looking as bothered by it. 'Does it matter?' she asked. 'It didn't hurt anyone.'

Kyle frowned more deeply at this. He knew Jessi had a point but there was still something bothering him about it

'Kyle,' Jessi said, looking unsure. He looked at her reaching for her hand to put her at ease and urged her to continue. 'I was thinking. They said the server's down…' Kyle nodded not quite sure where she was going. 'Well we fixed Stephen's hard drive, maybe we could help with the server as well?' She said watching for his reaction.

Whenever they had a disagreement about something it put her on edge, even if it was a simple thing like whether or not lying was appropriate and now he was taking a while to answer, a look of concentration plastered on his face. Even after his promises she still felt a pang of fear at the thought of saying or doing something wrong and him deciding to leave her. She realized as his grip tightened around her hand that he must have felt her fear. She smiled gently and waited for his answer, trying to forget her doubts.

When she had finished Kyle was debating with himself if it was a god idea. Of course he wanted to help Stephen and he was excited at the idea of being able to have a "job" but his insecurity about rules and what they were told to do weighed him down in his decision. Stephen had told them to say there and Kyle was sure they had someone to fix the server for them.

In the middle of his thoughts a trill of fear and something akin to vulnerability ran through him, making his eyes dart to Jessi seeing those same emotions in her eyes. He understood what she was thinking and tightened his hold on her, not willing to take the chance that she might run away somewhere again.

He smiled at her and made his choice. 'Jessi, I wouldn't leave you or think any less of you for suggesting something like that. You are just trying to help.'

He stood and pulled her up with him. They walked around the floor for five minutes before finding the server room, static on the screen, something they both understood.

They both sat down on the floor Kyle starting to pull the machine apart and handing the parts to Jessi who looked carefully at them all, immediately switching things around and pulling wires out. Soon parts surrounded them and both were working furiously to reconnect everything into its correct position.

Stephen went back out to the waiting room and looked around frantically before going over to the receptionist. 'Where are Kyle and Jessi?' he asked, slightly angry. 'I told you to watch them.'

She opened her mouth to respond but he was already around the corner and searching for them. He walked past the server room and backed up, eyes widening in horror and pulling open the door.

'What are you guys doing?' He almost shouted.

Kyle and Jessi paused momentarily in their work to look up at him. Stephen turned to leave and get someone to try and fix the mass amount of damage they had caused but was called back.

'Stephen wait.' Jessi said. 'Please.' She added, seeing him still hesitant.

She furiously started working on the pieces around her, even faster than before. Stephen watched as Kyle followed her lead. The next few minutes were some of the most fascinating Stephen had ever experienced.

He watched as the part slowly disappeared off the floor and into the server where they should be much faster than should have been impossible for a highly trained technician, let alone two teenagers with no memory.

He watched as they murmured to each other, conversing over who had what and asking for different things, the other always knowing and easily complying with the task at hand. They worked meticulously and Stephen was sure that it was even more amazing because it was two people who seemed to be able to communicate what they needed without so much as a word. He was sure it wouldn't have been so remarkable if it were only one person.

The fluidity and ease that they fixed it with left him speechless as they finished and stood, the screen coming back on with the letters L.W.K. now showing on the screen.

As they worked both Jessi and Kyle felt a new sensation. Their bodies were filled with a strange hum, as if it was their body's way of telling them this is where they were meant to be.

Kyle couldn't help but glance up every now and then to seeing Jessi working away, a determined and look of utter concentration on her face. Everything she did she seemed to want to do just right, without fault and she seemed to succeed. He supposed in some way he was the same. He did want to prove himself useful and help people and when he found something that could achieve this he knew he would do it without question.

Stephen, not able to really find the right words just smiled. He guessed after his hard drive he shouldn't really be so surprised. 'Good job.' He said, directing it at them both.

Jessi beamed at the compliment, looking over her shoulder at Kyle who was also smiling. His smile widened when he saw how happy she was.

Jessi seemed to bounce on her feet for a second and even Stephen couldn't help but let a large smile take over his face at her innocent joy.

When they all arrived home Nicole ushered them over to the couch once again. Kyle and Jessi were learning that whenever she did this it usually meant she had something serious to talk about.

She handed them a card with a strange symbol on it.

'Do either of you recognize this? Does it give you any feelings of familiarity?' She asked, watching their reactions carefully.

Kyle looked at the symbol confused. 'No,' he answered, sure that he had never seen it. It seemed a strange thing and he started wondering why she was showing it to them. He handed the card to Jessi who looked down at it, taking a longer time to look at it than he did.

After she had stared at it for a minute, a frown on her face, Nicole spoke up.

'Jessi?'

Jessi looked up at her.

'Have you seen this before?' She asked once again. Jessi looked back down.

A strange feeling of foreboding came over Jessi as she looked at it and she suddenly found it slightly harder to breathe. She felt as if she should know what it is and what it means but the answer just wasn't there.

She knew that she knew it but she also knew she didn't want to remember. She had a feeling that whatever it was did not hold good memories or events.

She told Nicole this then looked up at a confused Kyle, wondering the same thing as he. Why did she know something about this symbol when he didn't?

Nicole took the card back, looking at them both. 'Kyle, are you sure you don't know it?'

Kyle broke the gaze with Jessi and turned to look at Nicole. He shook his head, just as confused as the rest of them.

It was then that Josh decided to walk past the room. 'Man, you guys are so lucky you don't remember school,' he said when he spotted Kyle and Jessi with Nicole and Stephen.

'Any homework?' Nicole asked.

Josh sighed and nodded looking rather depressed. Stephen rolled his eyes. 'Room, now.' He said, indicating with his head the direction of Josh's room.

The teen hung his head and trudged upstairs still carrying his backpack.

Stephen looked stunned for a second. 'Huh. I didn't think it would be that easy.' With that he got up and also left the room, walking to the kitchen to start dinner, thinking back over the extremely strange day he had been having so far.

Just then the there was a knock on the door, Nicole jumping up to get it.

'You know… this neighborhood isn't zoned for halfway houses. Oh, good evening by the way.' A voice said while Carol Bloom and Amanda came through the door.

'Excuse me?' Nicole said, not liking the way this conversation was starting.

'Amanda has just informed me that two of your… cases were watching her and hiding in our bushes just a week ago.' She said, pulling Amanda closer to her in a protective gesture.

'It wasn't like that mum-' Amanda said quickly, trying to stand up for Kyle and Jessi.

'Who knows what could have happened if she didn't leave when she did.' Carol finished, ignoring what Amanda had said.

I'm so sorry, Carol. Lori was responsible for watching Kyle and Jessi but she left them alone, but I assure you she was punished.' Nicole said, trying to calm the eccentric woman down.

'Look, Nicole. I would hate to make this into a police matter but-'

'I think that is entirely unnecessary.' Stephen spoke up, coming into the room. 'After all Amanda said herself that they weren't trying to harm anyone. I think it might be better if you leave now.'

By this time Kyle and Jessi had walked over to see what was happening. Amanda saw them and smiled lightly at them, waving.

Kyle waved back, still confused and Jessi smiled, not really knowing who she was but thinking she seemed nice enough, if not a bit strange looking.

The adults stopped talking as Amanda moved from her mothers side and over to where Kyle and Jessi were standing.

'Hi Kyle,' she said, than looked to Jessi, reaching out her hand. 'Hi, I'm Amanda.'

Jessi looked at her hand for a minute, not quite knowing what to do. Amanda saw the look on her face and smiled, reaching for Jessi hand and shaking it, trying to show her what to do.

Jessi smiled as she watched their hands. 'What's your name?' Amanda asked her.

Jessi looked back up at her. 'Jessi.' She stated.

Amanda nodded, the smile never leaving her face. 'Well, it was nice meeting you.' She smiled once more at Kyle before walking back and grabbing her mother by the arm.

'Lets go mum.' She said dragging her out the door, Carol still in shock at what her daughter had just done.

Once they left Nicole and Stephen walked back into the kitchen, cooking dinner together while Kyle and Jessi walked upstairs to find something to do.

'Stephen, I have to tell you something.' Nicole said once they were alone. Stephen nodded for her to continue. 'I saw Detective Breen this morning and-' She stopped when Lori entered the room.

'What?' Lori said, noticing that they were looking at her and had stopped talking. 'Fine, don't tell me.' She said, sighing moodily and walking back out of the room.

'Lori, wait. Your father can't take Kyle and Jessi into work again tomorrow and we need you to watch them for us.' Nicole said in a pleading sort of voice.

Lori turned back an exasperated look on her face.

'Hello, have you forgotten? I have work tomorrow!' She said, trying to get out of it, knowing they still didn't know about her getting fired.

'Just take them and let them sit at a desk and draw. They won't be a problem.'

She rolled her eyes, obviously not able to get out of it. 'Fine.' She saw the look that Nicole and Stephen were shooting at her and made a weird growl noise. 'Yeah yeah, I know, they're part of the family and all that.' She said, walking from the room more annoyed than when she had entered.

******************************

Kyle and Jessi walked into Josh's room, finding him working on something at his desk

'What are you doing?' Kyle asked.

'Homework from summer school.' Josh said, not looking up but staring at a question a blank look on his face and tapping his pen against the paper. 'It sucks,' he muttered.

They both looked over his shoulder and saw what he was doing, algebra. Indentical smiles came over their faces at how easy it seemed to be.

'X equals forty nine,' they said together. Kyle and Jessi looked at each other, smiling.

Jessi loved that fact that she seemed to share something with Kyle that no one else did. She could understand him better than anyone else because they were the same. She could only hope that he felt the same.

Josh looked up from the sheet for the first time, a sly look on his face. 'Oh yeah, you guys… and girls' he added remembering Jessi's reaction last time someone said that, 'like math don't you.'

******************************

'They are linked to a murder?' Stephen said, just a little bit too loudly.

'Maybe,' Nicole said, trying to calm him. 'We don't know anything for sure but Jessi definitely had a reaction to that card I showed them.'

'What else did the Detective say?' He asked, quieter this time.

'Weel, he's not even sure about anything yet. They night not be connected.' She said.,

*******************************

Kyle looked up, as did Jessi. They felt something. Like a wave of energy, like a satellite produces, although they didn't know it. They looked around, grabbing each others hands to try and increase the ability to feel it, trying to find the source of the waves but finding nothing they went back to what Josh was saying.

*******************************

Just outside the Trager home a man in a van was listening to the conversation going on between Nicole and Stephen, not realizing how close he might be to being discovered. He flexed his hand, trying to eliminate the stiffness in it that was caused by the scratches on his right hand.

*******************************

Jessi sat in Josh's chair, finishing his homework for him

'I don't know if you should do that Jessi.' Kyle said, sitting beside her.

'Why not? I just want to help.' Jessi said while still writing, almost finished.

'Yes but I think Josh was meant to do it by himself.' Kyle said, a unsure look fixed on his face.

Josh walked in a little while later only to see all the sour patch kids gone and Jessi and Kyle staring at each other as if they were having a silent battle. They both looked up as he entered.

He picked up the sheet and nodded. 'Nice. Now, lets keep this a little secret between u, okay?' He said, walking back out.

'Secret?' Kyle stated, looking over at Jessi, even more worried than before. She now had the same expression.

'I thought is was a good thing to help?' Jessi stated, confused suddenly. Why did they need to hind that they were helping if it was a good thing?

*****************************************

The next morning Stephen slammed down the newspaper in front of Nicole, showing her the headline: "Hikers Find Unidentifyed Remains".

'It made the newspaper.' Stephen said, clearly worried. 'Did you know it was found right next to where we found Kyle and Jessi that night and aparently that means it was where they woke up.

Nicole looked down at the picure of the skeleton and frowned, a million thoughts running through her head.

A/N I know this was sort of a strange place to end it but I just wanted to put it here. Make sure to review and tell me what you think! Also, I want to know what you would like Amanda to be like in this fic, because there are so many ways I can think to make the issue of Amanda and Jessi and their attitudes towards each other, so please tell me what you would like to see. Should she be the jealous Amanda, nice and friendly, competitive, meek… bitchy?? :P please please review with anything you have to say! Thanks.
