Sorry about that guys!...
Sky's POV
I was 99.9% sure I was dreaming. He couldn't be here... And more importantly why Phoebe? Of all people! But the answer was simple... His was slipping and needed someone to make him feel whole again... I couldn't help feel a wave of jealously wash over me as I opened my eyes to find Tania sat. Head in hands in the chair opposite me
"Sky? Oh Sky! I'm so sorry! I should have told you!" I could see she truly meant it-not only from the orange glow around her body but from the sincere look in her eyes.
I forced a smile "don't beet yourself up about it, I understand why you didn't tell me." And I did, even though I'd wish they had
"Still... You shouldn't have found out like that. It was wrong and where both truly sorry..." I squeezed her hand when she came over. Just then the door creeped open and in walked Zoe followed by Poppy and Tori
"Sky!" Zoe practically jumped on me "thank god your alive!"
"I hardly had a heart attack" I replied with a small grin on my face
"Still..." Tori came and sat on the uncomfortable bed. "1 in 5 people die from passing out every year " I grimaced
"Thanks! I'll keep that I mind" I smiled "oh and sorry for ruining your party by the way" I had forgotten about that and felt terrible. All that hard work. Gone.
"Are you nuts?! What's a Halloween party without someone collapsing? People are cueing up round the block to take pictures with the crime seen! I can just see the headline now: 'resurrected murdered school girl collapses after seeing first love'" I shuddered at her choice of words
"Too early for the ex joke?" Tori asked unsure
"Ya think?" Zoe replied
"Sorry!" I smiled half heatedly. In a way she was right. He was my first love. I let my mind wonder to him
'Baby please answer me?'
When I heard his voice in my mind I shut down the barrier. Immediately!
"Seriously though, I am really sorry!" Zoe came round to hug me "we both are!"
I smiled "all is forgiven, now don't get all sappy on me!"
"Soppy!" They all- but Poppy chorused. I rolled my eyes
"Why are you so quiet Pops?" Zoe asked standing up straight
Poppy looked guiltily "oh, no reason..." She trailed off we all looked at her
"Okay, spill it sister!" Zoe said walking towards her
"It's nothing really..." She sighed
"You tell us or we'll force it out of you!" Tori threatened
Poppy sighed again "well... If you must know... Zed's out side wanting to see Sky..." She blurted out
"Oh" was all I could manage
"I don't think that's a good idea..." Tina but In
"Why not?!" Poppy snapped
They all looked at her "because stuff happened in Werckenridge..." Was all Tina said
"And?..." Poppy replied looking frustrated
"And... Seeing Zed is probably not whats best for Sky right now... We haven't told Sally and Simon yet but when-" I scowled at her "if we do there going to move Sky back to Denver for sure!" This much I knew was true. Simon never really liked Zed. Especially after all that with the Kelly's...
"And what about what's best for Zed?!" Poppy snapped again. This time she took me by surprise. I've always known she was one for not hurting other people but this... This was weird... Something didn't feel right...
"You don't even know him!" Zoe said, clearly not liking the way she was speaking to her closest friend.
"Oh I know more than you think!" Poppy growled back. Tori squeezed my hand, a silent 'are you okay?' Jester came from her mouth. I nodded. I wasn't okay. But I wanted to find out what Poppy meant by 'i know more than you think'
"So what? You've got to know him in the first five minutes of meeting him?" Zoe scoffed folding her arms
"No..." Poppy wasn't lying...
Zoe smiled triumphantly "right then... And anyway, why do you care all of a sudden for someone you don't know?" I could see a red cloud of emotion coming off of her. She was pissed.
"Because..." She said through clenched teeth
"Because what?" Zoe sneered back
"Because he's my cousin!"
