A/N - Carson, that's right. Love that name. Love you guys, too, for reviewing! I've got a pretty faithful group of you, and I appreciate you so much! Throws a party for reviewing family LOL...Back to Luke...I need to throw in some more suspense somehow, I think...Caleb trying to snuff Luke out wasn't as major as I hoped it would be. Oh well. Let me know what you think! =) Thanks to Eve, HOTTERTHNU, pinkbubblegum123, fanficgirl1, benzbabidoll, and BlueStarGirl! PS - BlueStarGirl, your name reminds me of an urban legend about LSD tattoos. Just had to mention that. =)

(Luke's POV)

Five busted ribs

Fractured wrist

Fractured pelvic bone

Concussion

Lacerated cornea

Fractured ankle

Four fractured toes

Guess I'm pretty fucking fractured

But I'm alive

Damn it, right, Caleb?

Too bad all it would take to off him

Is a gunshot

A blank, even

The loud crack would give him a heart attack

But I don't need to kill Caleb Nichol

I can beat him while he's still living

If that's what he calls it

My dad came

It was pretty cool I guess

I think the only thing that scares me

Is that Caleb doesn't want me to have this baby

Just as much as I want it
