Amy yawned as she turned over. She frowned noticing she was alone. It had been almost a week since they were rescued but she still expected Ty to be there beside her. She smiled at the thought. She noticed the time on the clock. Ty would be on his way to school by now. She slept in again. She'd been doing that a lot lately but her family had let her. Jack easily took to doing the morning chores. She yawned again before throwing back the covers and getting out of bed. Her messy ponytail falling on her shoulders as she made her way into the kitchen.
"Hey, good morning." Lou said chipper. She had flown in from Vancouver as soon as she heard Amy and Ty were okay. Needing to be there for her little sister. Amy had to admit she had already had enough of her babying her.
"Hey, Lou." She barely sat at the table before Lou placed a large plate of eggs, bacon, toast and pancakes in front of her.
"Eat up."
Amy rolled her eyes. "Thanks." Lou set her down a glass of orange juice. "I usually have coffee." She argued.
"Not today. Orange juice is better for you."
"Why?" Amy had kept quiet every morning up to this point. "Coffee helps you stay awake."
"It's almost 10. How are you still tired?" Lou already had her concerned mom face on. Emma let out a loud cry from the other room saving Amy. Lou sighed before quickly leaving to get the baby.
Amy quickly drank the orange juice and grabbed a pancake off her plate. Taking this opportunity to run. She put the pancake in her mouth as she hopped around trying to get her boots on before Lou came back. She grabbed the pancake again and her coat before taking a mad dash across the yard. The backdoor slamming as Lou came back into the kitchen with Emma.

"Hi, sweetie." Jack said as he stopped working on the tractor to bend down to the stroller to see Emma.
"Have you seen Amy?" Lou said her eyes never leaving the baby as she watched Jack and Emma.
"No, why?" He asked standing back up to face Lou.
"I just...she was weird again this morning. Didn't touch her breakfast. And got all mad at me for not letting her have coffee."
"Hon, she's been through a lot. Give her a break."
"Yeah, she almost drown. Excuse me for being concerned."
"Lou, you know that's not what I meant. She's fine. How many times do we all have to tell you that?" He switched his wrench to his other hand.
"I think she's avoiding the issue." She started pushing the stroller back and forth as Emma got fussy.
"She's coping just fine. And you bringing up her business isn't helping."
"Well, I better finish my run." She said unsure of Jack's comment. She did have every right to be worried but was she taking it a bit to far.

Jack walked into the barn and past the office and had to double back. There was Ty with his head on the desk fast asleep. His homework somewhere underneath him. Jack chuckled. "Ty?" When he didn't answer Jack nudged him. Ty sprung up startled. "Sorry, you were starting to squish your work there." He said pointing.
"Sorry, Jack. I know I told you I'd help bring the horses in." He rubbed a hand over his face.
"It's okay. I did it already." He said shifting as he held a lead line. "You've been working really hard. You should be proud."
"Thanks, these last exams are brutal."
"It's almost dinner." He said as he left the barn office. Ty looked down at his homework. He didn't even start it. He's been asleep at the desk for almost 2 hours. He couldn't believe it. Ty sighed as he packed up his books. He dropped them off in his room before heading to the house to join Amy.
She was already helping Lou fill the table with food. A large smile crossed her face the minute she seen him. "Hey. You've been in the barn forever. I wanted to go for a ride."
"Yeah, time got away on me." He smiled sheepish looking over Amy's shoulder at Jack.
"It's okay. You've been working hard."
"That's what everybody keeps telling me." He tried to sound happy but wasn't sure it came across. Then again the rest of the family was hurrying around them to get dinner on the table. He hugged Amy again as he let her take his hand and lead him to their side of the table. He felt overwhelmed to be honest. There seemed to be so much pressure to graduate and do good.
Amy poked him with the plate that had pork chops on it to get his attention. "You daydreaming?" She asked with a chuckle.
"Sorry, just tired." He said as he took his share before giving the plate to Lou. He caught Jack's expression from the other side of the table. He shouldn't be tired. He just slept 2 hours. So either Jack figured something was up or he was lying. "Potatoes?" He asked Amy instead leaving his comments to himself which Ty was thankful for.

Amy flopped down on her bed as she watched Ty. They had just finished a movie in the living room and Ty had cutely offered to walk her to bedroom door. She didn't object at the odd request. "What's on your mind?" She asked watching him play with a photo on her dresser.
"Nothing." He turned to face her.
"You know my sister is in the kitchen feeding Emma."
"That's not...we learned our lesson." He joked referring to their pregnancy scare situation.
"Then what's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to say goodnight."
Amy nodded not sure she believed him. But didn't have a reason not to. "I love you." She said standing wrapping her arms around him.
"I love you too." He leaned in for a kiss but heard someone clear their throat behind them. He knew he should have closed the door.
"Goodnight, Ty." Jack said.
"Night." Ty shoot Amy a worried glance. She held in her laugh as best she could. "Night, Jack."
"Good night." He repeated at Ty he watched Ty go down the hall before shooting Amy a glance as he closed her bedroom door. She fell back onto her bed in a fit of laughs. Ty's expression still on her mind.

Amy groaned as Lou followed her out the door this time. Amy bit a piece of her toast she had managed to smuggle out of the kitchen. "We need to talk."
"No we don't."
"I just think that after what you went through you'd have feelings."
"Oh, I have feelings." Amy glared at her.
"Why can't we talk about it?"
"We have. There's nothing to talk about."
"You could have drowned."
"You don't think I realize the seriousness of the situation? I have nearly a week to think about it."
"You need to talk to someone. If not me, then Grandpa." Lou remarked her voice full of emotion.
"I talked to Ty." Amy fired back.
Lou bit her lip. "Maybe I need to talk. I don't know if I'd be handling this as well as you."
"Lou, I get it was hard. But Ty and I are fine. And no one really understands what we went through better then Ty."
"I'm sorry I pushed." She frowned sitting on the bench.
"You bringing it up every ten seconds isn't helping." Amy joined her. "I was scared. But Ty was there to help me. He saved my life."
Lou nodded. "I'm grateful he was with you." She wiped a stray tear.
Amy smiled. "Can I go now?"
"Yeah, sorry. Hormones." She said wiping her face. Amy stood to leave. "Were you not hungry or avoiding me?"
"Avoiding you." She smirked taking another bite of her toast before running down the steps and toward the barn. Lou couldn't help but laugh.
Jack emerged on the porch with his cup of coffee. "So you finally get her to talk to you?"
Lou looked up at him. "You heard the whole thing, didn't you?"
"Well, I was trying not to but I'm glad I did." He held his laugh. "To avoid you."
Lou stood her arms crossed. "Now I'm avoiding you." She left Jack as she went back into the house to see if Emma was awake yet. Jack smiled happy Amy was fine.

Ty rolled over yawning surprised he had managed to fall asleep at all. He spend most of the night doing his homework. Then couldn't fall asleep when he did finally get to bed at 2am. He heard the noise again from below him. It must have been what woke him. He reached for his phone to see what time it was. Finding it odd that Amy or Jack was in the barn this early. But he was surprised and terrified to see it was almost 8am. His first class started 8:30. He'd never make in time. He got caught in his sheets trying to get out of bed and landed hard on the floor. The thud startling Amy as she thought she was alone. "Ty?" She shouted as she climbed the stairs. Pushing the door open she found him on the floor. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, just tripped." He said working his way out of the blankets.
Amy couldn't hold the smile as he searched for his clothes standing there in nothing but his boxers. "Shouldn't you be in town?"
"Yeah, I must have overslept." He said rushing around the room gathering his stuff. He left out the door as Amy stopped him.
"Ty?" She picked up his pants off the floor. Ty turned around and kissed Amy quickly. "Ty?" Amy chuckled watching him attempt to leave in his boxers. She waved his pants at him her face turning red she was blushing so hard.
"Thanks." He said embarrassed grabbing them from her.
