Chapter 7
After the drama they had endured, Kyle and Jenn were hardly surprised, upon meeting up with Jamie and Lyla, to find them frantic and concerned about them.
"Are you guys okay, we heard what happened and…?" Jamie began anxiously.
Jenn gently held up her hands, trying to calm things. "We're fine, we're not hurt."
Jamie quirked an eyebrow. "Guys, you got hit from behind by a car...that's serious stuff, don't you think…?"
"Dude, calm down, we're both okay." Kyle insisted. "We just got run off the road, there was no serious damage, not even to the car, surprisingly, which is lucky...although I'm not looking forward explaining to mom why her car's all banged up."
He grimaced at that and Jenn squeezed his hand. Jamie and Lyla shared a worried glance, true they looked alright, a little shaken still, but not actually hurt. But that didn't mean they weren't still concerned, after all, how could something like this have happened.
Lyla bit her lip before asking. "Did you, get a look at whoever was driving the other car, anything like that?"
"Afraid not, all happened too fast, didn't even realize what was going on at first." Kyle admitted.
Jenn shook her head. "Anyway, like we said, we're fine. But you guys are clearly worried about something other than us, what's going on?"
"Are you sure, I mean..." Jamie began.
"Yes, we'll be alright, we'll figure it out later. Now tell us, what else is bothering you guys?" Was Kyle's response.
Jamie and Lyla shared another look, deciding they might as well let things go for now.
So instead they turned to their other worries.
"It's Sean and Cassidy." Lyla revealed. "We're worried about them, they still don't seem to be over what happened with her dad..."
Jamie shifted awkwardly before admitting. "It's...actually looking kinda similar to what you guys were going through after Lauren Williams."
Kyle nodded slowly. "I think I see what you guys are getting at, hmmm, might be a bit tricky though..."
"Yeah, everyone is different, what worked for us might not work for them, you know?" Jenn added. "We finally managed to pull it together yeah, but...only because we had help from you guys. But even then, that might not help Sean and Cassidy."
Kyle bit his lip. "But there must be something, right?"
Jenn was also worried. "I know, we've got to think, I'd hate to see them fall apart, especially after how happy they've been together."
Jamie and Lyla were in agreement, but with their concerns that talking to them might not work, they felt stuck, unable to figure out what they could possibly do to help Sean and Cassidy.
"We can't just sit around doing nothing, there has to be something else..." Jamie added.
Lyla sighed. "Yeah, to say nothing of all of our own problems. I just wish we could resolve things and have at least one simple day, just for ourselves."
They all agreed with her, but right now could only wonder, what could they do to try and at least make their hopes have any chance of becoming real.
However what they didn't realize was they were being overheard. Someone stood nearby, just out of sight and bit their lip hearing that.
'Sean and Cassidy are having problems...that does explain why Sean looked so down lately.' They pondered. 'But how can, wait a minute, surely that's it...they already worked it out, it just needed some slight adjusting and their idea could work.'
Smiling the figure stepped out and cleared their throat, surprising the group who spun around and stared wide-eyed at the figure. Kyle was the first to find his voice.
"Daniel?"
Daniel nodded. "Hey guys, sorry I couldn't help but overhear what you guys were saying...about Sean and Cassidy."
"Um, yeah we..." Lyla began.
"Listen, you guys might actually be on to something." Daniel suddenly said. "I think just talking to them would work, but...only if it was the right person, you know."
"Are you saying...you?" Kyle wondered.
Daniel shrugged. "It's worth a shot, I mean, Sean's my brother and Cassidy and I have sorted those issues out...I think I can get through to them, at least let me try, tomorrow should work."
They all shared a look and smiled, before agreeing, after all their efforts of thinking and getting nowhere, it was their best option and they felt certain they could trust Daniel, so they all agreed. Tomorrow Daniel would try and talk to Sean and Cassidy and they would also talk and see if they could find a way to at least temporarily escape their own problems, to just have that day for themselves.
End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
