After the guys had seen Ana and Monica in their dresses, everyone headed towards Hollowed grounds for a nice steaming cup of coffee.

While Monica and Ana were in the dressing room, changing back in their normal clothes, Monica pulled Ana aside and started giggling.

"What is it?" Ana asked as she zipped up her pants and checked herself in the mirror before heading back out.

Monica couldn't get herself under control as she very started to button up her blouse.

"Did you see the way Michael looked at you?" "I thought is jaw was going to drop off!"

She started laughing again as she finished the last button, which still showed her plump cleavage.

Ana rolled her eyes, trying her best to brush it off.

"No, he didn't...he was just trying to be nice."

"Oh please Ana..." Monica smiled and tossed her curly blond hair to the side.

Part of Ana felt excited...she was really feeling like she was making head way with Michael and started to feel like she was sixteen all over again.

"You two like each other, everyone knows it...why don't you guys just get it over with."

"Get what over with?"

"The deed..." A sly smile spread across Monica's face and Ana gave her a look.

"I don't think this is really the time to be thinking about that stuff, we're just friends."

"Oh please, One day I'm going to hear grunting from one of the stores and walk in on you giving him a blow job."

"Monica!" Ana gave her a playful slap and headed out with her.

A few weeks ago she would have been pissed by that statement and returned some mean hurtful comeback about not being a slut...but now that Monica and her were getting closer, things seemed different.

They were able to joke around, and deep down inside Ana thought what Monica just said wasn't that bad of an idea.

A small smile spread across her lips and the two walked down the empty mall towards the coffee shop.

Everyone was still up on the roof, for once they would all be able to just relax and talk about getting nervous with Terry and Nicole around...or having Steve made his little snip to be heard.

CJ and Michael were all ready sitting down and drinking their coffee, Once Ana met eyes with Michael she blushed and smiled.

Both of the girls walked behind the counter where two other stools were and sat down across from the guys.

Michael pushed over two other cups towards them.

"We tried to make your favorite." Ana smiled with him and knew what a sweet and nice thing that was to do for them.

Luis hated doing anything nice for Ana...even when it came to getting her way in bed.

Monica flashed her eyelashes and took a small sip from her cup and giggled, she sure could pull off that act, Ana thought with another smile.

CJ seemed to be busy in his own little world reading a magazine.

"What are you reading about?" Monica asked towards CJ and tried to bend her head to see the article.

CJ looked up, almost half dazed. "One of these dam woman magazines...back when you locked us up that's all we had to read and now I'm hooked."

Everyone laughed and knew CJ was really an all right guy.

"What article were you reading?" Ana asked.

CJ looked down at it again and rubbed the back of his neck.

"Children, are they the best thing that can happen, or the worst."

"What?" Ana asked, this time trying to see the magazine.

CJ used to finger to slowly read off the lines. "It's all about parents in their 20's or 30's having kids and their feedback on how they like it."

"And?"

"Well, it's 50/50, some parents that had their kids later in life had time to enjoy themeless before having them...they said it's hard but nothing really isn't recked."

"The other half who had them to early are kids themeless and don't treat their kids good...almost as if their blaming them for their problems."

"That's awful..." Ana said as she shook her head and took another sip of her coffee.

"Did you have any kids?" CJ asked her, and almost threw her off guard.

Ana seemed a little stunned but shook her head.

"I wanted them, but it never seemed like the right time."

"What about you CJ?"

CJ shook his head and drank his coffee faster.

"I go through girlfriends to fast...anyways I wouldn't be able to handle the little pains in the ass."

"Hey kids aren't that bad..." Monica said "I never had them, but my sister did and their really cute."

"Yeah their cute because you don't have to take care of them or spend money."

Monica just shrugged.

"I'm going to have to disagree with you CJ, I happened to really enjoy my kids."

Everyone stopped and right away knew Michael was there.

Monica and Ana knew what he was talking about and right away felt like such idiots for talking about his subject after he had such a great loss...but CJ wasn't there when he told everyone and looked just as shocked.

"What?" CJ asked half confused

"My kids...I happened to really enjoy them, I had them later in life and really had a good time being a father...it's nice."

"You had kids?"

"Yeah." Michael said and half nodded, a small sad look seemed to spread in his eyes.

CJ and the other girls seemed out of place and uneasy.

But Monica saved them

"See the magazine is right, He had his kids later in life so he could still enjoy his time when he was younger...right Mike?"

Michael smiled again and nodded.

"At least we know where CJ stands when it comes to kids...I guess you won't be around to help when we start seeing little Terry's and Nicole's running around huh?"

CJ rolled his eyes and groaned, everyone laughed again.

"I wanna have a girl and a boy, when I have kids." Monica said as she poured more sugar into her coffee.

"Oh yeah?" Ana asked as she crossed her arms.

"Yeah, I'm going to name one Sugar, and the other Joe."

"Sugar and Joe?" CJ raised his eye brows.

"Yeah from the movie Some like it hot."

"Oh my God..." CJ groaned and everyone laughed.

"Must be really something to have a baby..." Ana said as she seemed to look off into space.

"It sure is." Michael said with a soft smile, Ana smiled back and knew Monica was right...she needed to act on this feeling before it killed her.

Monica and rubbed her arms and looked down at the counter.

"Yeah...but who knows, all of the babies might end up like Luda..."

Everyone went still, and shared the same fear...they were all there when it happened.

Michael shook his head.

"You can't think that way Monica...I mean the only reason that happened was because she was bitten."

Monica looked like she was ready to cry, Ana and the others were starting to learn how emotional she was.

"That sick son of a bitch...why did he tie her up, we could have tried to save her and the baby."

Ana looked down at her hands and felt a sad tugging in her heart.

"Because he loved her so much...he was scared."

Michael looked over at Ana and reached across and touched her hand, Ana slowly raised her eyes and Michael gave a soft smile towards her as CJ watched.

"I'm sure whenever people in the group start thinking about that, their going to be fine."

Ana smiled and knew Michael was right.

Who knew how long they were all going to be together, it was only a matter of time when the soft sounds of children filled their ears, it was just the way the human race was made...to move on and start over.

What a beautiful place to raise children in, Ana thought...she had been dreaming of the island ever since they talked about it.

She then felt better and smiled again and saw Monica was all right now.

"I think your right Michael...we need to learn how to move on and start over, I mean why be afraid?"

Michael then smiled

"I remember back when I was four years old, my mother was pregnant with my younger sister...she asked if I wanted to touch her stomach and right away I started crying my eyes out."

"Why?" Ana asked with a smile

Michael smiled back

"Because I thought she had ate my younger sister and was going to eat me."

Everyone laughed but CJ, he tried to look busy reading.

"I guess we just have to learn to move on and keep loving even after we lose someone, because we know deep down inside that person is in a better place and someone is taking care of them."

Ana was taken back by this...no matter what Michael said it seemed to made her feel better.

Monica and Ana smiled at him as CJ rolled her eyes.

Just then the door leading towards the stairwell opened and Steve poked his head out and gave a sly grin.

"Hey losers!"

"Everyone turned and right away switched on their pissed off looks towards him."

"What?" CJ snapped

Steve put his hands up in the air.

"Hey, no need to snap, Kenneth just wanted you guys to know that their all having lunch up on the roof and need help setting up the tables."

"Why don't you help?" Monica snapped as she tossed her hair again.

Steve gave a cocked grin and flipped them all off as he shut the door behind him.

"Dick..." Ana mumbled and Michael laughed.

"I better go up and help..." He slid off the stool and Monica did the same.

"I'll go to."

Michael opened the swinging door for Monica and both turned towards CJ and Ana.

"You guys coming?"

"In a minute...I just wanna finnish my coffee."

Michael smiled

"Okay, but you better sit next to me when you come up." Ana laughed and felt her cheeks turn a deeper shade of red.

Michael smiled again and seemed to pause looking over he beautiful face as it lit up each time she laughed.

He took a deep breath and gave her a wink and then disappeared with Monica.

Now CJ and Ana were left alone.

They really never had time to talk...and Ana didn't think much of him ever since he pointed his gun in her face back on the rooftop that day.

But she was starting to see an easy going guy inside him and tried to push aside her feelings of hate.

She tried what she would say as the nervous stillness filled the air between them.

CJ then looked up from his magazine and took a breath.

"Did you buy all that horse shit?"

Ana felt thrown off for the second time today.

"What?"

"All that shit about life and moving on from Michael...God he's so sappy."

Ana then felt anger enter her.

"He is not!"

"Hey! I don't think he's a bad person...but he can drone on for a while."

Ana wanted to slap him just then for talking about Michael that way.

"I happen to like Michael very much, and he made me feel better...he can do that you know?"

Her voice was starting to raise.

CJ shrugged.

"He just seems more like a second leader...the type to say anything to get into a girls' pants."

Ana looked at CJ shocked, was he mad because Michael had been right about everything, because Michael was kinder and a better person.

Was he made because Michael was smarter and knew how to treat a lady?

She then hated CJ a million times more.

"CJ your a fucking pig you know that, I bet you wouldn't even know the first thing to get into a girl's pants."

"Yeah I do."

"Oh yeah, what's that?"

"This..."

CJ then reached across in a snap and put his strong hands around her neck and brought his lips towards hers.
