Out of the Water

Monday came by quicker then any of them had been expecting, none of them were ready to face the real world, to walk down the halls of Spencer, to feel the stares hear the whispers, the gossip. They all knew it was going to happen, it was always the same, anything big happened it went round the school like wild fire, but this wasn't just anything, Kate had died, she was gone, they were never going to see her again, wouldn't see her walking down the hallway, that carefree smile locked on her face, as she chatted easily with the people around her, flicking her hair over her shoulder and laughing and even after everything that had happened in the last month since Skye had arrived at Spencer, she had still put Pogue first, had ensured that she cemented his happiness, despite how much it was going to hurt her.

There was still an ache in everyone chest, none of them could really believe it, all hoping that they would wake up and realized it had been a very realistic, awe-full nightmare. But it wasn't they knew that, and today they were going to have to face that truth.

The sons along with Sarah, Skye and October had decided they were going to stay at the Danvers manor, well the sons had decided for them, ever since Kate they hadn't been allowed out of their site. October had decided to stay because she didn't want to leave any of them alone, especially not Tyler, they had talked and Tyler had explained he was afraid of loosing her, he had yet to tell her the real reason.

At present they were all curled up on the sofas and chairs having finally fallen asleep in the early hours of the morning. Skye stirred in Pogues arms eyes flicking open, wondering around the room, her gaze fell onto Tyler who held October in arms, her blonde hair falling in her face. She smiled sitting herself up, Pogues arm tightening around her, she saw Tyler give her a brief smile as she struggled out of his grip.

"Talk to me Ty"she whispered leaning forward and crawling over to where Tyler was sat on the sofa opposite. Tyler bit his lip and sighed, he hadn't really spoken of his fears of telling October the truth, especially now Kate was dead and it was eating him up.

"I don't want to loose her" Skye nodded her head, before resting it on his knees, she bit her lip, she really didn't know what to say to him, she didn't think anything could make her feel better, after all she knew if things were different and she had been told the truth about the sons after Kates death, she might have made a whole different choice. She lifted her head looking into Tyler's brilliant blue eyes and smiled sadly.

"I think you have to be honest and tell her the truth"She touched his hand softly, which was lying on top of his knee. Tyler smiled down at her, his gaze dropping to the blond in his arms. In so many ways he wished she had never come back Ipswich, wished that she was still in New York, safe and untouched by what was happening. But then he would think of how much he cared about her and couldn't care to part.

"She's smart Tyler, she's going to know something is going on, she can see how tense every one is, and she's going to start putting two and two together" She stopped pursing her lips slightly she could see the understanding falling over his face, could tell that he knew she was speaking the truth, and could see he was going to argue. He was trying to find any excuse he could not to tell her.

"If you don't tell her Ty then your going to push her away" She whispered "I know you don't want to do that, if she cares about you enough she'll stick by you" She continued lifting his hand to her lips and giving it a small chaste kiss.

Pogues eyes snapped open, he had been dreaming of her again, remembering how she had smelt, the way she would laugh before kissing him, he was remembering all the good things that he and Kate and shared and then it stopped, it changed, changed into something horrible. Kate was stood in the middle of her room, shouting at him, telling how it was all his fault, that he should have been there, should have saved her. It felt so real, everything about her, he hadn't been able to do anything, he was stood frozen as Chase walked into the room.

Pogue shook his head, palming his hands over his face, trying to rid him self of the memory, it was bad enough he was remembering her death, but the next bit was worse. Once her body had hit the floor and the silent scream had escaped his mouth, everything hand changed. He was stood in a clearing, and it was Skye's body he was faced with.

He sat up letting out a shaky breath, it was in that instant that he realized there was no warm body snuggling into his side, there was no hand clasped to his chest, or hair tickling his face. He dropped his hand, gaze hastily scanning the room, his powers flaring to the surface as he tried to locate the missing brunette. He found her sitting at Tyler's feet, her gaze locked on his face, her hand clasping his. He forced himself to calm, his powers to ease. He could see Tyler's forehead crease in worry and fear before his gaze lifted from Skye and settle on him.

Skye saw the change to Tylers face instantly, they hadn't been talking about anything that would cause that sort of reaction not fear or worry, they had moved on from October and had instead settled on discussing the work they were all behind on, anything to keep their mind form the ordeal they all would be facing soon. So as soon as she saw his forehead crease his eyes flicker with fear and then worry, her own brow creased as she turned following his gaze.

Her eyes softened as they fell onto Pogue, he looked so small and afraid as he looked at her, his eyes drawn and hollow. She had become so used to seeing him look like this, but it still broke her heart, but this time was different, his eyes were misted with so much pain. She watched as he pushed himself away from the sofa and walk quickly out of the room.

She felt Tylers hand touched her shoulder, but she continued to look in the direction he had gone, she couldn't place where all the pain had come from, she knew about the nightmares, about the cold sweats, but this was something different his eyes had been pitch black as he looked at her, before finally draining, he had never let his powers flare like that not even the night she told him Kate had died.

"Go after him" He urged squeezing her shoulder slightly, trying to urge some sort of response. She finally snapped herself out of the stupor, nodding her head as she pushed herself to her feet. The rest of the room were beginning to stir, she could see Caleb sitting up trying to dis tangle himself from Sarah, so that he could see what was happening. Reid was running a hand through his blonde hair blue eyes flicking over to her confusion etched to his brow. She could see they were all ready to jump and defend them from what ever force had broken in, but yet she didn't bring herself to stop and tell them that there was no threat.

Skye could hear Tyler saying something in the background, but she didn't hear what it was, she presumed it was something along the lines that there was no danger, that she was going after Pogue. She couldn't hear their replies as she strode across the living room and into the hallway all she wanted to do was to get to Pogue, get to him and tell him everything was ok, even if she didn't believe it herself, its at least she could do, he was there for her in her time of need, and she was going to be there for him.

She pulled open the front door the cold air of first morning hitting her skin, she took a breath wrapping her arms around her body, her eyes adjusting to the dimness of the light. She stepped out of the door, shutting it softly behind her, her gaze flicking around, trying to find him. Her gaze fell onto his Ducati and gave a soft sigh of relief, at least he was somewhere close, that he hadn't gone out on his bike.

"Pogue"She called out loudly, her voice carrying on the wind, she began to walk down the long driveway, her gaze falling on a lone figure, he was stood facing the lake, his arms wrapped tightly around his body, his shoulder heaving. Skye bit her lip as she quickly stepped towards him, her arms wrapping around him, head resting on his bike.

Pogue tensed the second he felt her arms wrap around his body, he closed his eyes bringing his hands up to touch her arms, he pulled them apart, could hear her suck in a breath, could almost imagine the pain on her face, the argument on her lips. He wound his hand up one of her arms pulling her softly around, so that she was facing his chest. His hands reached up, taking her face in between his hands, his eyes pleading with her, begging her to take away the pain, he moved his hands into her hair.

"Pogue"She breathed bringing up her own hand, touching the side of his face, caressing his cheek, she held his face, her eyes sparkling with emotion as she looked at him.

He stared into her eyes not being able to rid himself of the image of her laying on the floor, her eyes unseeing as they stared up at him. He had to touch her, had to know she was real, that she was there. He had already lost Kate, and that pain was so real so true, so bare in his chest, he could hardly breath at times, but loosing her, he didn't think he could survive that. He knew things were going to get worse, he could feel it in his bones, Kate was just the first, a warning, he knew that now.

"I cant loose you" He chocked out, Skye nodded her head smiling, brow etched with worry.

"You wont" Pogue shook his head, it wasn't just her, he couldn't loose any one, he was barley holding it together now, he was on top of a huge cliff, one step to the right was going to send him plummeting down.

She didn't know how long they stayed like that, his hands tangled in her hair, her gaze locked with his but his demeanour finally broke, the tears breaking over the surface, trailing down his cheeks. She could feel her own tears well in her eyes, he hadn't cried for Kate yet, had stood with a stone face at the funeral had been the strong one as the other broke, but now, now he was finally showing that it was hurting, that the pain was to much to bare, watching him now, it nearly broke her to.

"I cant do this" He chocked "It hurts" Skye nodded her head, she knew what he was going through, knew that nothing she said, nothing she did would ever make it ok, there was nothing to help him, all she could do was hold him, let him cry and help him through it the best way she can.

"Yes you can"She replied softly, her hands moving through his hair, down his back soothingly. He shook his head, ready to argue with him, but she silenced him, her finger on his lips she stared into his eyes.

"You can ok, because im going to be at your side" Pogue nodded his head, dropping his head into the crook of her neck.

"You promise"He whispered. Skye wrapped her arms around him, her hand holding his head, smoothing her fingers into his hair.

"Promise"
