"What are you planning on doing today, angel?" asked Rafe as
he finished his toast from breakfast and watched her from the kitchen area
finishing making up the bed.
"I am going to the house to clean up a bit. What are you doing?"
"Lucy," he laughed, trying to make it sound believable. "She bought a boat."
"A boat?" she said looking at him strangely. "I guess this is something she
feels she has to do to get over Ian, huh?"
"Yeah, I guess so. We're going to go out on it for a bit. I'll come by the
house afterwards though, ok?"
"Sure, that's fine. I'm going to go take a shower now," she said smiling at him
as she passed the entrance to the kitchen.
"Hey, come here first," he said putting his arm out and grabbing the edge of
her night shirt and pulling her towards him and into a bear hug around the
waist. "I love you—you know that right?"
"Yes, Rafe. I've never doubted that—ever. What's going
on?"
"Nothing, just thought I hadn't said it lately. Go get
your shower, I won't leave until you are done," he said as he let go of her.
When he heard the water begin to run he got up and went to the phone, dialing
quickly, "Hey," he sighed. "I can't do it."

"Oh, hi," smiled Myra as she laid
back on one of the chairs and saw Ian walk into the room. "I take it you need
some help with your little dilemma?"
"The only dilemma I have is you—I can't believe I even wanted to hear what you
said. I can't believe for a second I thought about killing Kevin, but you know
what—I won't do it. I won't play this little game of yours, because Rafe told
me the truth about you—told me what type of monster you are and the damage you
have done in the past. So if I were you I'd just throw in the towel now Myra—because
nobody in this town is going to believe your lies, not when Rafe and I are
still walking the earth."
"Are you sure about that?"
"Oh yes—and if you need help packing let me know," he said storming out.

"How about some music?" asked Alison as they walked into the house and she
placed the radio on the counter top and plugged into the wall.
"Sounds good—what do we need to start on first?" said Livvie as she looked
around at the kitchen.
"I was thinking we could start down here first," she said flipping on the
radio.
"The next song is 'Inside of You' a new one by Stephen
Clay. Hope you enjoy it," said the announcer.
"Did you know Caleb had a new song?"
"No, turn the volume up," Livvie said as she grabbed the broom and began to
sweep while Alison wiped down the counters and they listened to his words fill
the room around them.
Open your heart,
And listen to my words.
They say you don't want the past to repeat,
But in this case that is absurd.
I need you to fight,
I need you to rebel what is your instinct.
Because you are the key to this mystery,
You are the one who can unlock me from the hell I'm in.
Don't let me down,
Because the solution can only be found...
Inside of you where the demon lies,
Inside of you where the angel cries.

"Do you feel better now?" asked Lucy as they pulled out and began to go towards
the middle of the harbor.
"I'm still uneasy, and if she has the babies while I'm gone I don't know what
I'll do to Caleb, but yeah I feel better now," he sighed turning on the radio
and beginning to smile as he heard the words.
"What's that?"
"Caleb's influence. Now let's get going—we're behind
already," he said as he went down into the hull.
I know your every movement,
I know your every breath.
This isn't a game we're playing,
We're talking more than
Living the life we've dreamt of,
We're talking that life or death.
My soul is at your mercy,
so please tell me you hear me...
Inside where the demon hates,
Inside where the angel waits.
"I've got a drink order for you," called Jack to Jasmine as she walked by.
"Did I forget someone?" she said looking around and seeing it was still a
fairly slow morning.
"Up there," he nodded to the curtained area.
"Oh," she said taking the drink and walking over there, he was sitting there as
still as a statue, but hearing her footsteps he looked up—his face
expressionless also. "Here you go," she said to Caleb and he gave her a nod
before taking the coffee—as his looked at his watch seeing what time it was.
So listen to my voice,
And follow my command.
Because I'll lead you through the wilderness,
As bring you to the promised land.
Where fear is a thing of the past,
And anything is possible.
But first you must look inside you,
Where the demon and angel reside.
Inside where your fire is fueled,
Inside you where your secrets are kept,
Inside where you will find….
ME!
"Did he say anything important?" asked Jack.
"No," she said quietly and saw Ian walk in, "Hi."
"Hey," he said looking at her and then to Jack. "Have you seen Rafe today? I
need to talk to him—it's important."
"I believe him and Lucy went out on her new boat Ian, but maybe you could meet
them when they come back into port," shrugged Jack.
"Yeah, thanks," he said going out the door as the phone begin to ring.
"Trinity Bar," said Frank answering. "What? Of course—yeah, I'll be right
there," he said hanging up the phone.
"What was that?" asked Jack.
"A boat in the harbor just exploded," he said looking at them both, and then
seeing Caleb now standing outside of the curtained area watching them all.
