Chapter 42
A shadow followed.
Sky could feel it, some one was on his tail. He tried not to make it obvious everytime he checked his six, but he just couldn't spot the tail.
Who the heck would be following him? a few answers came to mind, but none that made any sense what so ever. Sky decided to duck into a small shop and wait and see who the follower was.
He didn't wait long, but who he saw almost made him laugh. Sky jumped out of hiding and grabed the cuff of the followers coat.
Startled, Liam turned around and met his brothers blank gaze.
« What are you doing? » Sky asked, exasperated.
« What does it look like? » Liam answered evenly.
« It looks like you"re following me, and kid, if there is one thing I don"t like, its to be followed. » Sky snapped.
« I"m going with you. » the boy diclared.
« The hell you are! »
« You can"t stop me and if you bring me back home, I"ll just run away again and try and find you. »
« You"re something. » Sky mumbled, « You don"t want to upset your mom or dad. »
« You did. » Liam told him.
« Ya, well, they don"t need two rebles in the family. »
« I"m going. » Liam said with conviction.
Sky observed his little brother, what the heck was this kids problem, he had a roof over his head and parents who probably loved him to death. « Fine, but don"t say I didn"t warn you. »
« Okay. » relief showed on the kid's face.
« Well come on, so sense standing here in the damn rain. » Sky mumbled.
Both said nothing as they walked proudly down the street full of homeless people. Neither said a word and when they got to Sky's bike, Liam hopped on behind him and they sped off.towards Texas.

Alec had been unable to find Sky. He opened the door when his son, Damon, came up to him and diclared that Liam had run away.
It wasn't the first time, either. Max had told him several times that when Sky had been real young, he would go away for days, just to see if he could hack it and then he would come back and go back to his normal life, Liam was the same, God only knew why.
« Max? » she came into the living room, she looked as if she had been crying,
« Liam"s gone. »
« I know, Damon just told me. »
« He left a letter this time. » Max said and handed it over, a new set a tears streamed down her face.
Alec frowned and took the letter from his wife, it read :
I got to go, I'm gonna stay with Sky. I wanna tell ya not to worry and I'll call someday, I promiss. I love you, mom and dad. bye bye Liam
« Shit, shit, shit. » Alec yelled. « SHIT! »
Sam observed from the kitchen. A tear fell down her face and she walked up to her father and said :
« Dddy, I know this probably isn"t the right time for this, but I got to tell you.I"m pregnant. »
Alec looked at her blankly and then turned white.
