"I know you kept it, I know you didn't throw it away," said Rafe as he quickly went through the drawers of Eve's dresser. Just then his cell phone rang, "Hey Ian, did you remember where it is?" he asked. He had called Ian on the drive over to ask him about it, but he didn't remember anything.
"Yeah, there's a box in the living room closet. It's up on the top shelf, she could have put it up there."
"Hold on, let me check," he said as he rushed into the living room. "Ok, I've got the box," he said pulling it down and sitting on the couch. "Sorry about the mess I've made looking for it."
"No problem. You really want to give this to her don't you?"
"Something isn't quiet right Ian, and I'm getting worried. If it worked for Eve then it's got to work for Alison, right? Ah, found it," he said taking it in his hands.
"Good, drive safe back to the gym, ok?"
"Will do, thanks again. I'll bring the key back tomorrow," he said hanging up the phone and hitting the light switch before going home.
---------
"Alright, let's talk," said Livvie as she entered the loft like she owned the place.
"Well, that didn't take long."
"What are you talking about?" she said shaking her head.
"What were you doing right before you decided to pay me a visit?"
"I was listening to the radio and a song came on the air. What does that have to do with anything?"
"The song was my new one, and it called to you to come see me. Am I right?"
"Yeah, so you might be, but that doesn't mean anything."
"It means everything sweetheart," he said giving her a quick kiss.
------------
"Rafe?" asked a half-sleeping Alison as he slipped back into the apartment. The fire was out, and she had got into some flannel pajama's and under the covers.
"Yeah, it's me-can you wake up for a minute? I need to talk to you about something serious."
"What is it? Why did you leave earlier? You didn't even give me a kiss," she said giving him a pout. But when she saw the look on his face, one of both fear and uncertainty about something, she stopped being upset at him.
"I had to find this," he said as he held up a gold chain with a medallion on the end of it.
"That's Eve's. Michael gave it to her to protect her and Danny," said Alison as she watched the medallion spin slightly.
-----------
"So you got me into one of your little trances. You wanted to talk, so let's talk," Livvie said as she went over and sat on the arm of the couch.
"Good," he smirked. "What is the reason you've been avoiding me? I mean you know that I've got Karissa working for me now, but you still seem just as upset."
"Well, I am. She's not doing her job, I mean Rafe and Alison are back together happy as clams. Where are you and I? Living apart because of one woman. So when are you going to tell her to go home?" she said as he got up and grabbed the cell phone. "What are you doing?" she said as he dialed.
"Just what you asked me to do," he said as he looked at her. "Karissa, uhm hi. Listen are you busy right now? No, good-can you come over to the loft? I need to talk to you about something important. Ok, see you soon," he said ending the conversation. "Now you are going to go hide around the corner when she shows up."
---------
"Yeah, and I want you to wear it. I also want you to promise me something Alison. Promise me you will not go anywhere near Karissa from now on. She's up to something dangerous, and until we figure out what it is I'm worried about your safety."
"Do you think Caleb's in on it?" she asked as she took the necklace and ran her fingers over the face and letters on the front of the medallion.
"I'm not sure, I haven't talked to him much these past few months-I've been more focused on us instead, which is the way it should be. Have you heard anything from Livvie or Jack?"
"Livvie has surveillance set up on him, like we did that time. She thinks he only wants to tear us apart. I watched him on surveillance Rafe, he didn't seem to be trying to hatch out a plan to harm us, more like he was hatching out a plan to get Livvie back. So what are you going to do?"
"I'll go have a chat with him tomorrow, but for now you look like you are getting tired," he said as she laid back down and curled up next to him. Within minutes she was asleep, but he stayed awake wondering what was going to happen next.
---------
"Glad you could join me," said Caleb as he let Karissa come in. "We need to talk about what you are doing."
"Do you not like my work anymore?" she said as she came up to him.
"I like your work, but I don't need you anymore."
"You don't need me? But why?"
"Things have changed. When I figure out a new way to need you I'll get in touch," he said as he got out his checkbook and wrote a check. "Here, this is for your wonderful work my dear. Thank you for the business," he said handing it to her.
"No, thank you, Caleb," she said walking out. As the door closed she looked at the check again, "This won't do," she said as she ripped the check in two, and then morphed into Annette.
