Chapter 45
« Neices.you have neices, reilly and Callie; they"re almost two now. » Alec told him.
« Shit. » Sky mumbled, « So who"s the dad? »
« Fox; transgenic decendent, they"re married now and they"re raising their kids. Fox works with me, I still haven"t forgiven him, but hell, he"S one hell of a guy to have on your side. »
« Well, that"s good. » Sky said.
« Ya, well, so what"s up with you? I didn"T much appreaciate you taking Liam with you. »
« Well, he followed me, I wasn"t gona leave him behind. » Sky argued, « So, you guys only have one kid now, or what? »
« No, not really, we sent Damon to live with one of your mother"s brothers. We ran into eachother a year ago and Max was so glad to see him, she hadn"t laid eyes on him in oh, over 20 years. Anyway, she mentioned that Damon was having problems and stuff so he suggested he come live on his farm. »
« Zack? » Sky asked, surprised.
« Ya, how did you know? » Alec asked, confused.
« I lived with him and his family for a year before I came back to Seattle, he thought me shit. »
« Small world. » Alec said.
« Tell me about it. »
« Do you want to talk to your mother? she just walked in the door. » Alec asked him.
Sky didn't answer for a minute, because in reality, he hadn't talked to him mom in 14 years, « Ya sure, why not? »
Alec passed the phone over, but not before telling Sky he loved him.
« Hello? » came his mother's voice.
« Mom? »
« Sky? » she recognised his voice immediately. « Oh, Sky.how are you honey? »
« Better now that I"m talking to you. »
« Oh, Sky, I"ve missed you so much. »
« Me too. mom. » Sky admitted.
« Is your brother with you? » she asked.
« Yup, he"s fine too. » Sky reasured her.
« Are you coming home? » She asked hopefully.
« No. »
There was a pause.
« You"re always welcome.can I talk to my baby? » She asked.
« Sure, mom.I love you too, oh, and say hi to Zack for me will ya? »
Sky handed the phone over to Liam before she could say anything.
Liam talked for over an hour to both his parents, reasuring them over and over again that he was fine. Finally he hung up.
« You ready? » Sky asked him.
« Yup. »
« Then lets go! »
They headed North East this time and they didn't stop until they hit New York city.a dump as it had become after the pulse, but it would house them for two years and this would be where Liam would learn from his brother everything he would need to know to live alone in this untamed land.
