"Hey man" Junior said as he finale found his friend waiting for him in the crowed airport. "Hey" Matt said as they gave each other a quick hug but it wasn't like usual. There was distance now and Junior knew that if him and Kris did get a divorce then the distance would grow and grow until there friend ship would be no longer. Matt had been Juniors best friend since well...forever but some where between the time that Kris came to Raintree and now Kris had become to Matt what Dani was to him. Some where along the lines Kris became Matt's sister in a lot of ways. Jean thought of Kris like a daughter and Matt really cared for her. All of his romantic feelings for her had been gone for years but that didn't mean that he didn't love her and want look after her. Junior had thought about all of this over the past few days. He thought about what a divorce between Kris and himself would bring to everyone else. It was hard being around Kris now. He still loved her but he had made so many mistakes that it was hard to look her in the eyes and see the pain he had caused her. He knew that if they did split up he would never be able to be in the same room and face those mistakes every day. He would never be able to look at her and know that she was no longer his. He knew that if they did find there relation ship come to an end that it would crush the family that was made when it began. Over the past few year the Ritter family and the Davis family had been molded together. With the marriage between him and Kris and then Matt and Dani the Ritters and the Davis families had reconfigured. With Dani now officially a Ritter and Kris an official Davis, or at least for now that is, the families had changed for the better. Ken had finally realized how much Kris meant to Junior years ago and had finale welcomed her to the Davis family which was greatly appreciated by Junior and Dani and Kris had been best friends for a while now. Even though everything had fallen into place Junior knew that it could all be ripped up just as easily. If him and Kris could no longer be in the same room then the family would spilt. There would be a team Kris and a team Junior but the only thing he hadn't figured out was who was on what team?

"You ready" Matt asked after five minutes of pure silence among the two.

"Yea...lets go" Junior said as he got his luggage and headed to the car behind Matt.

"Have you talked to Kris" Matt asked once they were on the highway.

"No...not since she left" Junior said ashamed. He knew he should have called her but he did not want to talk about this on the phone so he decided to wait.

"She told you didn't she" Junior asked Matt in a whisper.

"She told Dani and Dani told the rest of us" Matt told him.

"But don't be mad at Dani" Matt added.

"I'm not" he replied

"So where am I supposed to take you" Matt asked.

"I guess...my apartment" Junior replied.

They drove for the next half hour and then they pulled into the apartment complex and up to the door.

"Thanks for picking me up" Junior said.

"Sure anytime...and good luck with Kris" Matt answered.

"yea thanks" Junior answered as he got out of the car with his luggage and made his way to there apartment. He reached the door and pulled out his key but when he get ready to unlock the door he realized that it was already unlocked. He found that kind of weird since it was almost midnight and Kris's car was out side so he knew she was here. He figured she was asleep but she would have locked the door.Once inside he looked around but didn't see Kris anywhere. He made his way to the bedroom and saw the bed unmade. It looked like she had just gotten up but he didn't see her any where. After setting his bags down he walked to the bathroom and saw the lights of. Normally Junior would have just thought that maybe she went to the Ritters and accidentally feel asleep there but he had a weird feeling that something was wrong...TO BE CONTINUED!!
