Something was lurking on the horizon.Death!. As I was saying before, we knew they had to die...Valmont and Merteuil...of course, not the Valmont and Merteuil we see before us...but the ones they'd left behind. And just as we knew, so did the young boy, Sebastian Valmont. So, when his naive adventuree asked the inevitable question he didn't know how to break it to her. "Sebastian" she asked as their barriers of not speaking about the subject had clearly been broken. "Uh huh" he naively replied unbeknowingly the question. "Are our parents going to be die?". As she stopped he had carried on. And as they were joint by the hand, their was a shudder as the question and the hand join pulled him back to her. It took him a while to answer "I think so". "I'm sorry...what I've done to your mum" she replied. Sebastian scratched himself awkwardly and looked away, till he eventually casually remarked "You did what you had to do!". "She nodded...she let me!" Kathryn said. "I know!...it's just...she's my mum...and I think I might have lost her!". Sebastian had broke into tears. Kathryn just went for it...on the impulse...she comforted him. "It really sunk in when we were five minutes down the road...that we should've stayed because...she was a alive...and it might be the last time I see her". Kathryn begins to cry again. "No! They'll let us see them!" Kathryn reassured him through her sobs. "Do you want to see your father?" Sebastian asked. "I'm not sure...I suppose so...if he doesn't die then I don't want to see him after...one last good-bye!...that's all I ask!...maybe a chat about stuff!...How he could do that!!!". Now Kathryn is in more tears so Sebastian comforts her. They cry in each others arms. "I'm scared Sebastian...there's so much going on and I can't deal with it all!...it scares me!". "It scares me too...but we can be scared together!". They hugged and cried together again. They let it all out - no boundaries. "I need you, Sebastian...no one else can understand what I'm going through" she cried. "Are you going to tell your family? Friends?". She Kathryn shuddered to a stop. She hadn't thought about it!. How could she tell her mother?. She couldn't!! - it would break her heart!. Her mother had spent the last 5 years of her 9 year life protecting her from the truth about her father - if her mother found out...she try and kill herself again!. It was decided in that quick second - "I can't tell my mother!". And as for Eloise! - well ,she'd blame herself too!. "No! I can't tell anyone!". "Not even your friends?" asked Sebastian. And then Kathryn smiled. "I only need one friend to support me and he's right here!". Kathryn takes his other hand and smiles. He smiles back chuffed. But, then a thought washed his face pale!. "Oh my goodness, Kathryn!...what happens when they came to rescue us?...they'll separate us!...our parents will separate us!". "I can't bare for that to happen!...No! We'll have to stay in contact!...visit each other constantly!!!" she exclaimed. "Deal?" she asked. "Deal" he agreed. They accompanied this with a handshake. "Come on!" Sebastian jumped to action pulling Kathryn along with him. "We can still make it if we try...We may still save them!". The pair ran. They ran and ran until they saw the next town. They ran to the nearest place and they didn't have to say hardly a word as everyone knew who they were!. They were stars!.
