Kirby ran into the manor, tears streaming down her face as she headed straight for Sammy Jo.
"Kirby?" he saw her coming through the door from where he was in the dining room, trying to lay the table for a meal he had planned for Steven, to apologise to him for the way he was about Melissa. He took one look at Kirby and through the place mats to one side "come on, we'll talk in my room, Steven's out." He told her.
Kirby nodded, biting her bottom lip before following him upstairs.
"Sammy Jo!" She cried out as soon as he shut the door. Like she'd been holding that in since she got to the manor.
"Kirby, are you okay, what's happened? I though you had a date tonight? Wait, how'd you get here?"
"I'm fine, date got cancelled, and Uber."
"Then why you so upset?" He asked, worried about the girl he saw as a sister, even if Steven wasn't willing to accept her as one yet, Sammy Jo sure was, after all, he's the one who invited her to Atlanta in the first place, he couldn't just turn his back on her like everyone else in her life.
"It's Fallon, she, she..."
"Fallon what, Kirby?"
"She got hit by a car."
"What?" He stared "is she okay?"
"No, she's hurt, but I didn't do it, you have to believe me, please, Alexis is gonna try and send me away for good this time, I can't go back to Australia, I can't..."
"Whoa, hey, hey, calm down," he grabbed her wrists, making her look at him "I believe you, don't worry."
"You do?" She looked up at him, astounded, before leaning in for a kiss.
"Whoa, Kirby, what're you doing?" Sammy Jo exclaimed, pushing Kirby away from him.
"I thought you liked me."
"Yeah I do," He nodded "as a little sister!"
"Oh." She said, feeling rejected.
"Yeah, 'oh'," he folded his arms, more than a little freaked out "You didn't seriously think I liked you like that did you?" He stared at her.
"No," she laughed nervously, looking at her nails "of course I didn't, I just got caught up, okay, I'm sorry."
"It's cool, forget about it." He hugged her, smiling sympathetically before walking out the door.
"Wait, where are you going?"
"To tell Steven about Fallon, he should be h..."
"No!" She exclaimed, shoving him back in and shutting the door "he'll just believe mummy dearest and I'll get thrown in jail.
"He's gonna find out sooner or later that Fallon's in hospital though. What am I supposed to do?" He asked, getting stressed as he run his tanned fingers through his messy hair.
"I don't know, you're his boyfriend!" She raised her voice, also getting stressed "you think of something."
"Um, husband, honey," he corrected her "and why can't you just lay low until we can find some evidence that Alexis is setting you up?"
"Yeah, great idea." She said sarcastically, patting him on the arm "until my stupid dad finds out and we both get in trouble."
"How badly hurt was Fallon anyway?"
"I don't know, didn't really stay around to look but it didn't look great. Why?"
"Do you think maybe she'll remember who hit her?"
"Maybe, but her parents will get to her way before we can say anything, you know what they're like." Kirby explained anxiously "they'll totally brain wash her into thinking it was me, just like they did with the fire."
"Fair point." He agreed "but what if I get there before they can."
"Okay, then you'd better hurry."

"Excuse me, can you tell me where I can find Fallon Carrington, please?"
"Umm, sir..." the receptionist started
"Sam, what are you doing here?" Blake exclaimed. Sammy Jo turned around to find Blake on the seats behind him.
"Could ask you the same question, shouldn't you be upstairs with Fallon."
"I'm waiting for Alexis." Sam had to bite his tongue at that "You?"
"I wanted to check if Fallon was okay. You heard anything?"
"Does Steven know anything?"
"No, I haven't told him yet, I was gonna tell him after I made sure she was okay."
"Well, you might wanna hold off on that 'cause she's not."
Sammy Jo's face fell "what do you mean?"
Dynasty
"You want the good news or bad news?"
"Good news."
"Fallon's in a coma."
"How is that good?!" Kirby yelled, punching him in the arm.
"Owie," he complained, rubbing his now dead arm.
"It was a tap." She sighed.
"Because obviously her parents wouldn't have had a chance to brain wash her, keep up."
"Idiot." She muttered.
"Do you want the bad news or not?"
"Whatever."
"Turn on channel 4."
Kirby grabbed the remote off the bedside and switched on the TV, finding the 10 o clock news to be on. Was it 10 already?
"Mrs Carrington, Mrs Carrington, can you tell us anything about the accident, was it a hit and run, is Fallon going to die..."
"Channel 4 news, Haley Stratford reporting, tell me, Mrs Carrington, just who was it that hurt Fallon?
"Hurt is such a strong word, I prefer attempted murder, and rest assured I will get her justice, the monster who tried to kill my baby will be behind bars before Fallon even wakes up. And that monster is none other than Kirby Anders."
"You heard it here first, ladies and gentlemen, Kirby Anders is respons..."
"Great, now my dad's gonna be looking for me."
"Never mind your dad. What about the police? Kirby, she's just accused you of attempted murder."
"Fuck!"
Author Note: I hope this is coherent seeing as I edited it at 4 o clock in the morning with no sleep lol
Anyway, let me know what you think. And, how/when is Steven going to find out about his sister? Or should I say sisterS ;)
See you later...
