Hey hey,

just a short message. This story was originally written in german, so if somethins isn´t correct I´m sorry for that. Please leave a Review it really means a lot for me

Julie was standing in the corridor at school waiting for Flynn, whom she hadn't seen since the concert last night. She really had to tell her what had happened.

"Hey Julie!", Julie turned around. There stood Luke. No, he wasn't just standing there, he was coming right at her. In the middle of the school, and everyone could see him. When he reached her, Julie grabbed him by the hand and pulled him into a small room behind the lockers.

"Luke! What did I tell you? You can't just turn up here like this. What do people think. Suddenly my phantoms have come alive?", Julie shook her head. How could she have believed for a second that the boys would stick to their agreement. Especially not Luke, once again he was just doing what he wanted.

"Hey hey, calm down okay. It's all good now and no one has to hide or lie anymore," Luke told her, in his calm voice that Julie loved about him.

"I know, but then I'll be the one answering all the questions and I honestly don't feel like explaining it to my dad," Julie looked into Luke's eyes. For a moment she forgot that she was supposed to be angry with him. But you couldn't stay mad at him for long. He had that way about him.

"You don't have to explain it to him. I think we'll find a solution so he'll buy it," Luke said again in his calm voice, but Julie wasn't so sure. She had allowed herself too much lately and she was sure that her father was not in a position to understand it all at the moment. He would not want to understand the truth because it is so absurd that even Julie often fails to believe what she can see. But in the last few weeks while she had been making music with the boys when they were ghosts, so much had changed. Julie had to deal with the thought that she might be dreaming it all, or that it could all be over soon, from one second to the next. That nothing would ever be the same again. When Luke, Reggie and Alex had told her that they had to settle an open score in order to finally cross over to the other side, something inside her had broken. She didn't want them to just disappear again. Not after all that had happened between them. But the story had been different. The boys were people now, and everyone could see them. But the best part was. Julie could finally touch them.

"I hope so. Because I don't really want to tell him that. He wouldn't believe me," Julie said, looking back up at Luke who was smiling at her.

"But what are you doing here at school?" she finally asked him after he hadn't said anything to her for a while but just watched her.

"Well, it may sound totally stupid now, but we've decided to go back to school as well," Luke said and Julie stared at him.

"You're not serious are you?" she asked dumbfounded and Luke started laughing.

"I can't believe you just bought that!" he laughed and Julie boxed him against his chest.

"Jeez Luke, stop with the stupid jokes. I don't even know what to believe anymore when you allow yourself to make jokes like that!", Julie crossed her arms. She really didn't have time for such jokes, but secretly she was glad that it was just a joke. She didn't even want to think about what would have happened if he had been serious.

"So what are you doing here then?" she asked him, piercing him with her stare. It took Luke a moment to be able to answer her.

"Well, to be honest, I wanted to talk to you while the others weren't around," Luke said a little hesitantly, looking down at the floor for a moment before looking at Julie again. Was this finally the moment Julie had been waiting for so long?

"I just don't quite know how best to address this," Luke stopped saying anything in response and turned away from Julie.

"What's going on with you Luke? Is there something you want to tell me then just say it. I won't be mad at you, I promise." Luke didn't answer on it.

"I'll tell you another time," he said firmly, and before Julie could react, he had pushed past her and stepped back into the corridor. He didn't look where he was going and bumped into Flynn, who was already waiting for Julie. When she saw Luke she wanted to scream but Julie held her back.

"Guys, let's be honest. What is wrong with you all today?", Julie shook her head and looked at Luke.

"It wasn't a good idea to come here to school, but you wouldn't listen to me," Julie took Flynn by the hand and just left Luke standing there looking after her with tears in his eyes. As Flynn asked her question after question, Julie couldn't help thinking about Luke. He wanted to tell her something, maybe even that he loved her. But he hadn't been able to say it, or didn't want to say it. Sure, yesterday he was a ghost and a relationship between the two of them would not have been possible, but today everything is different again and there are new possibilities.

"Hello? Julie? What was Luke doing here? No. Don't tell me. What am I asking you. I should be asking you how it's possible for everyone to see him when he's not playing music with you?", Flynn had crossed her arms after reaching the music room with Julie. There were no students there at the time and so they could talk there in peace.

"Flynn, I have no idea how this can be. Last night after the concert I went to my mom's studio again. The boys were still there and all of a sudden they came alive. I can touch them now," Julie told me, but Flynn's facial expression revealed that she didn't believe Julie.

"Jules, ghosts can't come back to life. They're just the souls of dead bodies. They don't just turn back into people!", Flynn put her hands on Julie's shoulders.

"But if I do tell you. I didn't imagine the whole thing and you could see Luke just now too - so could the rest of the school. How else are you going to explain the whole thing?", Julie knew Flynn wouldn't believe her. It had been the problem back then and Flynn had almost called her crazy when she had explained about Luke, Reggie and Alex. But it wasn't until Julie had shown her that she had been convinced and had believed Julie a little more than she had before.

"I have no idea, but ghosts don't just come back to life. You can't explain that to me. You're driving me crazy with your life. Strange things happen all the time, especially when the boys have something to do with it," Flynn was almost uninterruptible and Julie was having trouble keeping her friend quiet. She was about to tell Flynn about her magical moment with Luke when Carrie joined them.

"Was that one of your holograms just now?" asked Carrie, who was once again and expressed herself in an extremely genteel manner, and of course, purposefully made her tone seem so condescending.

"Wow! I didn't know holograms could suddenly be alive!", Carrie smiled nastily at Julie and turned around, then disappeared again. Once upon a time Julie and Carrie had been best friends, but with the success of her father Trevor Wilson aka Bobby from Sunset Curve, not only had Carrie changed but the level of friendship between them had broken down. Julie had often wondered why it had to come to this, but the more time that had passed, the less she thought about it.

"Mean snake!" hissed Flynn, but Carrie had already disappeared and couldn't possibly hear Flynn's comment anymore.

"Oh, let her be. She's just unhappy with her own life," Julie looked back at Flynn.

"So back to Luke and the other two.", Flynn distracted Julie from further thoughts of the past.

"How are you going to tell your father? Or does he already know about it?", Flynn wanted to know but Julie shook her head.

"I don't know exactly how to tell him. I just don't know any more. It's all been so sudden and I don't know how to deal with it. Or how it can all be possible all at once," Julie sighed. When the boys were ghosts, it had clearly been easy to find answers to all their questions, but this one evening had now clearly thrown everything into disarray.

"I'm afraid I can't help you there either, as I have no idea about all this myself, but maybe you could just sit down with them. Maybe you'll find out how it's all possible," Flynn said and Julie nodded.

"Yeah, that might be a good idea," Julie hugged her best friend gratefully.

Luke had arrived back at the studio. As he opened the two large doors he saw Reggie and Alex sitting on the couch staring at the ceiling.

"What's wrong with you two?" he asked them both, having of course earlier scared Alex so badly that he had fallen off the couch and was lying on the floor.

"Jeez Luke, don't scare me like that!", Alex raised his head and slowly straightened up while Luke also settled down on the couch.

"Now don't tell me you've been sitting here staring at the ceiling all morning," Luke looked at the two of them who just shot each other looks and said nothing in response.

"Anyway. I was at Julie's school and the other people could see me even though I wasn't playing music," Luke told them and Alex looked at him in disbelief.

"What do you mean? They can just see us now?", Alex asked and Luke just gave a "Yup.", grinning at his two friends.

"I mean, isn't that awesome?" he exclaimed, but Alex just seemed confused about it.

"How is something like that even possible? I mean we were ghosts. We don't just come back to life like that. And anyway, if it were then we're the first ones it could happen to.", Alex raised his head.

"So many changes. You know I have my problems with that," Luke and Reggie nodded.

"But maybe there's something to it. I mean, we still haven't settled our score," Reggie interjected into the conversation. "Maybe it's something else," he said, and his two friends looked at him questioningly. Even if he is not always the brightest, or if he can't answer any questions, maybe he could now prove what he was capable of. Because when he thought about it, he felt different than before.

"What are you trying to say, Reggie?" asked Alex, who knew his friend best of all. Not only did he know him best, but he also knew his history better than anyone else. But why that was the case, that was all far in the past.

"Guys, what I'm trying to say is that maybe it wasn't possible to settle the score as a ghost. Maybe for the very reason that no one could see us unless we were playing music with Julie," Reggie had now also sat down on the couch with Luke and Alex after getting up from the small armchair.

"You mean it has nothing to do with the music at all?", Luke now asked and Reggie nodded hesitantly.

"Maybe, maybe not. We don't know, do we?" he said, playing around with his bass.

"I don't think so. I mean the music is everything to us. It's always been everything to us. What other reason could there be to connect the three of us?" asked Luke to the group, but neither of his friends could give him an answer.

"You see? There's no other reason that connects us except music," Luke said, stretching.

"It's something musical. We don't know what it is exactly yet, but we'll figure it out," Luke said with satisfaction.

"If we still want to, anyway." said Alex quietly, just barely getting the words past his lips. Luke and Reggie looked at him, stunned.

"How can you say something like that?" the two of them shouted almost as if in chorus.

"I'm just saying. Don't get me wrong, but if we're actually alive again now and people can see us all the time, I wouldn't give that up so easily. I think now we have what we've always wanted again, and I'd hate to lose it," muttered Alex who was worried and didn't know how to deal with this new change. He didn't know anything anymore. It was all driving him crazy and he probably couldn't and didn't want to understand.

"Haven't you ever asked yourselves why all this is happening?" he finally asked his two friends.

"I mean, we were dead. Then we just show up here 25 years later, and when we make music with Julie then we're out there for everyone to see. Our big dream of being superstars was still possible, but why? Why did we have the chance? Why all this? And now suddenly we're human again and everyone can see us? Why only?", Alex had so many questions that he just spoke out so fast that his two friends had trouble following him.

"Wow wow, now calm down. Believe me, there is a solution for everything, and if there is a solution for everything, then there will be an explanation for everything," Luke reassured him, who had also been asking himself the same questions, but was less concerned with them than Alex.

"Really? Because I think there are quite a few questions you can't answer for me, let alone find an answer to," Alex said and looked Luke with a serious look right in his blue eyes.

"And what are those?" asked Luke, who could already think of part of it, but didn't say it.

"Where's Willi? And what about Caleb? Do you think they're still here but we just can't see them now because we're ghosts?" asked Alex and Luke nodded.

"Okay you're right. I really can't give you an answer there, and finding one is going to be hard too," Luke conceded defeat. Alex had won. But whether Alex was so happy about his victory was something else again. Luke knew Alex would like an answer to the question of what happened to Willi. Willi was special to him, something he had never had before. You only had to look at Alex and you knew immediately that he was totally different from other young men. Not only by the way he dressed, but also by the way he behaved. And that was exactly the kind of person Willi had been, although Luke thought he was a bisexual Willi, but that didn't make much difference. This was all about Alex and Willi, and what the two of them had as ghosts. Luke knew the story of Alex and his parents. How they had only argued and not paid any attention to Alex since he had come out to them. They didn't want him around any more and finally didn't pay any attention to him until he just left. How hard it must have been for Alex? Luke himself had also had a hard time with the thoughts of his parents, whom he had simply left behind, but still it was probably not as hard for him as it was for Alex, whose parents didn't even live here in the city anymore.

"Well, that's exactly what I mean. Don't you notice how we miss the truth? It's like someone is making sure we don't know what it's all about and why it's happening to us," Alex leaned his head against the back of the couch and looked up at the ceiling again.

"So you mean there's a reason for all this?", Reggie asked as if he had only just realised what the two of them had been talking about. Alex looked at Reggie for a moment and then looked away again. Reggie hadn't had it easy either. His parents had only argued and were on the verge of splitting up. Somehow all three of them had had a difficult past that would never leave them. And no matter what they did about it now, it would never make up for what had been destroyed.

"I'm not saying there's a reason for all this, but I'm telling you it's far from over and in fact I'm sure we still have some things to take on," Alex blew the air out of his much he had wanted to be human again. There were still so many things he would like to do, but he had never had the chance. And now? From one day to the next he had the chance to do everything. Wasn't that a bit strange? Or did it only seem that way to him?

"Anyway, how was it with Julie at school?" asked Alex, looking at Luke, whose face had changed abruptly.

"Yeah right, what were you doing at school?" asked Reggie now too and Luke found himself caught in the middle between his two best friends and there was no way he could escape the situation. He had to tell them if they didn't already know, just because he had acted in such a way that it must have been too obvious again. Just as he was about to tell his two friends how he felt about Julie and that he had feelings for her more than he could imagine, the doors opened and they noticed Carlos still standing with his back to the doors. In one leap, Luke, Reggie and Alex jumped up and hid behind and under the couch before Carlos entered.

"Yeah Dad, I'll be right there!" exclaimed Carlos before standing with both feet in the studio and looking around. He still hadn't given up looking for the ghosts, especially not after he had recognised the three holograms. It was clear to him that his sister had contact with ghosts and he wanted to know how she had done it. All he knew was that it had started here in the studio. Back then, when the move was still in the offing, Julie had gone to the studio alone to tidy up and look for things that could possibly be sold. Since that day, she had changed completely and was acting rather suspiciously in Carlo's eyes. And he would get to the bottom of it, no matter what.

"What's he doing here?" hissed Alex to Reggie and Luke who had squeezed under the small couch and hoped Carlos wouldn't notice them. Julie's little brother had almost become dangerous once before when he had attacked her with salt. Fortunately, everything had turned out all right again. The salt had not effect. How could it? Salt kept away evil spirits and demons, but neither of those terms really suited them.

"I don't know, but he's a real danger to us," Luke hissed back as they watched Carlos. He slipped quietly through the studio and looked around thoroughly.

"I know you guys are here. I know about everything," Carlos said, but it didn't come out all that convincingly. When he had finally inspected everything carefully, he turned around and left the studio again after Ray had called for him again.

"Oh man, that went well.", Alex wiped his hair out of his forehead and helped Luke and Reggie to their feet.

"What do you guys think about us going into town? Since we're alive now we haven't been there yet?", Alex asked and Luke and Reggie didn't mind so they set off. They crept along the wall of the house through the small garden and only when they reached the street did they walk on as normal.

"Now that you mention it. Life is kind of weird," Luke mumbled, who for the first time could observe the little things again and could also notice them on his body. A few days ago he couldn't even go outside properly, because as soon as a small gust of wind came, he almost couldn't stand. The air would always have carried him away. But now the wind just bounced off him and couldn't do anything.

"That's what I've been trying to tell you all along, but nobody listens to me," Alex said proudly after Luke had finally agreed with him.

"Now do you understand what I mean when I say that I have a hard time with change?" he asked his two friends.

"I think you mean you have a hard time with everything," Reggie said, catching a shove in Luke's side.

"Hey, what? It's like that!", Reggie defended himself.

"What's that supposed to mean now? As far as I know, I never had my problems with change when I was human. It was only when we came back as ghosts that it started," Alex looked at Reggie questioningly, but didn't probe further.

"Whatever you say," Reggie looked ahead again and seemed to have already left the earth with his thoughts. Just like he always did.

"Guys, calm down now. We all know we had a difficult time when we were humans. And yes, maybe it was also our fault that we had such a hard time, but that's no reason to talk about it now. After all, it was 25 years ago," Luke said and smiled. For him, the whole thing was new, but he tried to make the best of it.

"If we have the chance to live as humans again, who knows what else we'll have a chance for," Luke added and Alex nodded.

"Right! Sounds good-", Alex hadn't finished his sentence when he just stopped talking and stared ahead. They had reached the city centre by now and were walking in the pedestrian zone, which was teeming with people. The Orpheum was also already in sight.

"What's wrong Alex?" asked Luke, looking at his friend who had now stopped and was just staring ahead.

"Don't you see them?" asked Reggie, who seemed to be seeing the same thing as Alex, but reacting differently.

"What am I supposed to see?" asked Luke, turning from one to the other. His two friends were really weird sometimes and acted strangely. Sometimes Luke wondered if he knew them at all, the way they were sometimes."Take a closer look and you'll see it," Reggie said, grabbing Luke by his shoulders and standing him further forward. And then Luke saw it. Now he understood why Alex had suddenly stopped and said nothing more. And he also understood why Reggie perceived everything differently from Alex. There, not far from the Orpheum and a small shop, stood his parents Mitch and Emily. Luke almost had a heart attack and stood transfixed.

"Your parents are here." said Reggie, who must not have noticed that Luke had already seen them, but Luke didn't say anything to him in response either, just continued to stare at his parents.

"Aren't you going to go and see them?" asked Alex who had broken out of his stupor and was now standing next to his two friends again.

"Are you crazy? They'll think they've gone completely crazy if they suddenly see me again. 25 years after I died. Oh no, I won't do that to them, even if they deserved it and I'm still mad at them, but it really doesn't have to be that way," Luke said and took a step backwards.

"Whatever you say, but I'm just saying, maybe this would be a good chance to make up for something that was long overdue," Alex said, inwardly hoping he would see his parents again too, even if they didn't like him or consider him a son anymore since he had come out, but it would be worth a try if he could do it.

"Of course, you're right, but I wouldn't even know what to say to them. The whole thing is just so crazy and I can't deal with that just yet," Luke said, pulling his two friends into a side alley as his mother turned directly in their direction.

"You know, even though I miss them every second, I wouldn't know how to go and talk to them right now. Just because they've thought I was dead for too long. If I just show up there again now, it could have bad consequences," Luke said with a lowered voice. Of course he missed her, but there was nothing he could do about it. Yes, he could change something, but then he would be the reason why they would go crazy. He didn't want that. He would rather let them continue to believe that he was dead.

"You don't have to talk to them today, but maybe in the near future, as long as you are still able to contact them. Who knows how long we'll be like this," Reggie said and Luke just nodded.

"Do you actually think Caleb has disappeared?" asked Alex, who kept keeping his eyes open, but there was no sign of Willi far and wide.

"Well, at least we haven't heard anything more from him or your ghost friend. So I guess he's not here right now. But you never know with him what's coming next," Luke said as they followed the alley and came to another street.

"Honestly? I never want to have anything to do with him again. He's mean and I don't like mean people," Reggie said, shaking himself. Every time he just thought about Caleb and the time they had with him, he got goosebumps spreading all over his body.

"Reggie's right. We should be glad he's not here anymore, at least not right now. It gives us time to focus on more important things, like song lyrics or a new little concert with Julie," Luke said.

"You already know you're pretty attached to her," Alex laughed while watching Luke blush.

"That's not true at all. Julie and I are just colleagues," Luke claimed but his face betrayed something else.

"Come on Luke. You can talk to us about it and we see it every time we play music with her. The way you always smile at her and get offended when she doesn't pay attention to you. That can't be something that happens between two colleagues," Alex said and Reggie agreed.

"After all, it's been going on between you two for quite a while and I'm even sure there are feelings involved. From you and from her," Reggie don't think Julie has feelings for me, do you? She's got the hots for that totally cute Nick," Luke disguised his voice when he said Nick's name.

"See, and you sound jealous again just because Julie likes that Nick," Reggie laughed.

"But I don't think she has feelings for that Nick. Maybe she used to have them, but she's very different with him than she is with you. And that's saying something." said Alex who had seen Luke and Julie together many times and thought they made a good couple.

"Yeah, but it's kind of weird. A relationship between a ghost and a human isn't possible," Luke said.

"Um hello? Have you forgotten that we're not ghosts now?" laughed Reggie.

"So a relationship is possible," Alex added but Luke wasn't so sure.

"You know, I would love to tell her how I feel, but what if we're not here soon. What if everything just changed again? Then she'd be alone and even sadder than she already was." Luke said, lowering his voice again.

"Hmm, well then I don't know, but you shouldn't always keep everything to yourself like that. Let her know how you feel and you'll see that everything will change. And for the better," Alex said and winked at Luke.

"I'll think about it, but for now we should get back into the studio and work on a new song, after all we have a gig at Julie's school in a few days. And we should be prepared for that," Luke said and they made their way back to the studio.

"Do you have a title for the new song yet?" asked Reggie, who remembered that Luke had spent half the night writing a song. He always did that when he couldn't sleep, whether as a human in the past, a ghost or back as a human in the present.

"Indeed. I call it "Light it up" I think that's a good title," Luke said and as they walked down the street they started to sing the song.

Light the fire inside me,

Let the sparks fly, we both know what we feel, so let us fly

I don't know exactly how to tell you,

but ever since I met you, my feelings have been going crazy.

Like a spark in the dark sky, you fly through life, just leave everything, you know?

But when I look into your eyes, I see the fire,

Burning everything down, down, down

And it'll never be the same again, the same, the same

Light the fire in me

You and I will fly

Sparks will fly

Like you lit the fire inside me

Light the fire in me

You and I will fly

Sparks will fly

Like you lit the fire inside me

Leave nothing behind, take everything with you

This energy is in us like electricity,

Through our veins it flows

Spread the feeling, you know?

But when I look into your eyes, I see the fire,

It burns everything down, down, down

And it'll never be the same, the same, the same

Light the fire in me

You and I will fly

Sparks will fly

Like you lit the fire inside me

Light the fire in me

You and I will fly

Sparks will fly

Like you lit the fire inside me

Lyrics by Lele Dezember

"The song is really good," Reggie had a smile on her lips when they reached the studio again without any incidents. But when they opened the door to the studio, Julie was standing in the middle of the room with her arms crossed, as if she had been waiting for them for some time.

"Oh, hi Julie1," Alex said when he noticed her and the next moment Luke had noticed her too.

"What...s going on here?" he asked her, slightly confused, after she had just stared at the three of them and said nothing.

"Where were you?" she finally said, her voice sounding disappointed and sour.

"We were in town." said Reggie, who probably didn't consider the situation tense.

"Didn't I make it very clear to you guys that you can't just go anywhere you want? People can see you now and I don't want any things to happen that you have yet to regret," Julie said and Luke nodded.

"Nothing happened though. Everything went fine. No Caleb, no Willi, no Trevor.", Luke said to reassure Julie, but that didn't quite work out the way he wanted it to.

"You guys don't understand. Everything seems perfectly normal to you now, but it's not. I just don't understand how it can be possible and I would love to know how it happened and if there is a catch," Julie said and Luke couldn't help but hug her. Julie didn't even resist his hug but let it happen.

"Hey hey, it's all good. It's all still new for us, but we can use some free time. The last time we felt this alive was 25 years ago. And that's a hell of a long time," Luke said quietly to her.

"Exactly, and we're as stumped as you are. We can't explain the whole thing either," Alex said as he sat down at his drum kit.

"Come on, let's go outside," Luke pulled Julie with him outside the studio while Reggie and Alex rehearsed quietly.

"What are you going to do now? What are you going to do now that you're human again, or something like that?", Julie asked and Luke looked to the ground before looking back to Julie and looking directly at her.

"We don't know. Generally we have no idea why this is happening and how to deal with it. I'm starting to feel like Alex," Luke said and Julie had to grin slightly.

"You mean these constant changes are driving you crazy?" she laughed and Luke had to grin as well.

"Yeah, you could call it that. It's just an indescribable feeling we're going through right now. I've long forgotten what it feels like to be human. It's nothing compared to what you feel as a ghost," Luke said and Julie looked at him questioningly.

"What does it feel like to be a ghost?" she asked him.

"I don't really know. It's like there's a thick veil over you that holds you down and makes it impossible to live an easy life where you can do anything. It's like you're not allowed to be free," Luke said and Julie thought of her mother, whom she still hadn't heard from. She didn't even know if her mother had become a ghost or not. "Sounds like a great feeling," Julie grinned and Luke started grinning too, just because he always grinned when she did.

"But it's not like that now. That freedom may be confined now, but it's no longer obscured by a veil." he said

"But I just don't know how to deal with it directly yet. Alex is already all over the place too and Reggie, he's the same as ever. You know how." he said and Julie nodded. She could imagine what it must be like for the boys to go through such changes. What would she do if she were in their place? She would probably go crazy and grab her head. She would hope that it was just a dream from which she could easily escape when she opened her eyes. But it is not like that. The impossible had become possible and she had seen it with her own eyes. As crazy as it might sound, it was no longer crazy at all. Julie would even say that it had become normal.

"You know, I worry all the time. What if this is just such a short phase and then it goes away? Then everything would be different again and none of us could ever do anything about it," Julie said, sounding desperate. She was. She didn't want to lose Luke, Reggie and Alex. At first, when they were still ghosts, she had often had the thought that one day they would just disappear and she wouldn't even be able to remember them, but it turned out quite differently. Now the whole situation was not only strange and no one could explain it, but everything was going crazy.

"Hey, you sound like you're about to fall over. Just don't worry about it. I'm sure we won't just disappear," Luke said and took Julie in his arms again.

"Yeah, maybe so, but what if it does happen? Then it was all for nothing again," Julie said as she buried her face in Luke's shirt.

"Don't worry about it. We'll find a solution for everything, and I won't leave just like that as long as I have things to do," Luke said, speaking the last words very softly.

"What else do you have to do?", Julie lifted her head and looked at Luke.

"My parents. We ran into them in town today and there are certain things I need to tell them while I have the chance," Luke-like "Maybe I can help you with that. After all, I've been in contact with them before," Julie said and Luke nodded.

"That might not even be a bad idea. That would make me feel better," he said and smiled at Julie with his typical Luke smile.

"Don't worry, I'll help you with that in a minute," Julie said.

"As long as you promise me that you'll play by the rules and not just disappear," Luke nodded.
