" Well that was interesting." Nikolas told Courtney as they drove off. "What? A your brother's? It wasnt that bad." she told him "It actually went better than I thought it would." He told her. They were at the resturant waiting for their food. There had been a little conversation between the two but not alot. "So... what do you want to talk about?" he ask making eye contact with the girl sitting across from him. "Mmm. How about you tell me about your son." she said. He was processing it. It didnt shock him that she wanted to know but the fact that she asked did. "Okay what do you wanna know?" he asked her "Anything" she replied.

"Okay. Well he was born June 19, 6 pounds 14 ounces 21 inches long. His full name is Nathan James Cassidine. Lived with me all of his short life. GOes to the Quartermaines on Wensdays from 4-8. Likes to play with his building blocks. Likes big trucks especially black ones like his dad, who id deeply in love with him and thats basically it." he said "Who are the Quartermaines?" she asked curiously. "The Quartermaines how to describe them." he said as he thought of the perfect word. "Psychotic" she laughed "why do you say that and let your son go there if they are?" "Because regardless if I like them or not they are still his family so I let him go but just for four hours a week and sometimes they take him for more if they want. Just because his mother left and doesnt see him anymore doesnt mean that they shouldnt get too. No matter how psychotic they are." "Alright last question I promise. If you dont mind me asking where is hiss mother?" he looked at her "Hell if I know she left. I havent heard from her no phone calls,letters anything. All I know is that im in the process of a divorce with her and i got full custody. We havent had any contact since she left. The only contact we have is my lawyers handing hers her papers. I dont know where she is and right now I really dont care." he said "What about you. How about you tell me everything there is to know about you." he said

"Okay I dont know if i can tell you everything but i'll try." she responded "Well my full name is Courtney Leigh Matthews. My birthday is March 2, I'm 21 years old just finished college. Lived with my mom all my life in Atlantic City and went to NYU for college. Thats about it though." "Really? Wow. Whoever knew." he said "Well now you do." She responded.

"Here's your food." the waitress said as she laid two plates in front of them. "Doesnt smell tht bad.' she said trying to crack a joke. It wasnt funny but the way she said it brought a smile to his face. They ate their food while telling each other life stories about them in the past. They were done eating but still talking when all of the sudden Nikolas's phone rang. It was Lucky so he knew it was about Nathan. If it would've been anybody else he wouldnt have answered. "Cassidine" He said as he answered the phone. She just looked at him. She could tell something was wrong just by his facialy expression. "Okay I'll be right there." he said as he flipped his phone shut. "Whats wrong?" Courtney asked. "It's Nathan"he responded.
