* You need to read my The Witch, The Daywalker and Scud to understand this story. This is the second part. Abby and King's personalities are not what they were in the movie so be warned. Please review! Let me know what you think! *

At lunch, Jillian returned to the garage carrying two plates with tuna salad sandwiches on them. She found Scud and Abby sitting together at a table, going over some blue prints she had drawn up. Jillian felt a flash of anger go through her so she scanned their thoughts to see what they were thinking. She knew she shouldn't be creeping into their minds but she couldn't help it.

Abby was amazed by Scud's ideas and was excited to see her plans come to life. She still found him attractive but felt bad about it. Scud was trying to focus on what Abby was saying but he kept thinking about Jillian and the fact that he hadn't see King since they left together earlier in the night. He was also thinking about what he wanted to do to her when they went to bed. Jillian smiled and cleared her throat, getting their attention.

" I made you guys lunch." She said as she walked forward. Both Abby and Scud smiled. Scud came forward and took a hold of her arms as he kissed her.

" Hey." He said as he took the plates from her. She took a hold of his shirt as she followed him to the counter. He handed the other plate to Abby, knowing Jillian didn't like tuna salad.

" Wow, you made lunch? Thanks." Abby said. Jillian smiled as Scud sat down. He slipped his arm around her waist and pulled her to him. Jillian slipped between his legs and leaned her back against his chest.

" How's it going?" Jillian asked.

" Good, Scud is so smart." Abby said. Jillian glanced over her shoulder at him and smiled.

" What have you been doing?" He asked in between bites. Jillian shrugged.

" Nothing much, talking with dad." She said. " I made a casserole for dinner and it's in the oven." She said.

" Jillian cooks better then anyone I have ever meant." Scud said with a grin.

" Well, too be fair, before I moved into the warehouse, Josh lived off donuts and McDonalds." Jillian said. She faced him then. " I can't stay long." She said.

" Where you going?" Scud asked.

" Driving training." Jillian said with a roll of her eyes. Scud squeezed her waist.

" With who?" He asked. She smiled.

" Just Blade and me. He wants to teach me all the upgrades you gave his car." He sighed, making Jillian laugh softly. She knew he liked it when she watched him work.

" I will see you at dinner." She said before she leaned in and kissed his cheek. " I love you." He grinned, he never got tired of hearing her say that.

" I love you." He said.

XXXXXXXXXXXX

" He's going to be so mad at me." Jillian said softly as she sat in the front seat of Blade's car. " I have never held anything from him before."

" He will understand." Blade said.

" He thinks we tell each other everything." She said as she stared at Blade's dashboard.

" He will understand." Blade said. When she didn't respond to him, her adopted big brother reached out and took Jillian's hand in his. In a very unusual act, Blade brought her hand to his mouth and kissed her knuckles. " Jillian, look at me." He said. She sighed then raised her eyes to his face. "Once he is done being mad, he will understand. Scud is too much in love with you to stay angry for long." She nodded.

" I just feel like I have been lying to him." She said. Blade was rubbing her fingers with his.

" You haven't been lying, just withholding some things. He never asked you anything that made you lie." Blade said.

" He's not going to see it that way." Jillian said.

" You know I love you." Blade said. " And I don't say that to anyone. I have been in your life since you where a baby, I have done a lot to keep you safe, to make sure you stay alive. If there was another way, we weren't do this. You are the little sister I have never had and I would give my life for you." He said. Jillian took her hand from his and moved to hug him. Blade wrapped his arms around her and closed his eyes. " I'd be lying if I said I wasn't worried but we don't have a choice, this is our only option." A knock of the windshield made Jillian jump. Scud was standing there with his hands in his pockets. Jillian looked at Blade as she pulled away.

" I know, Blade. I know to all of that. You know I love you too." She said.

" We tell him tonight." Blade said. She nodded then left the car.

" What's going on in there? You two looked so serious and upset." Scud said as she walked up to him. Blade got out of the car as Jillian hugged Scud.

" After dinner, meet me in the bathroom." She said. He squeezed her as his stomach jumped, taking showers together was one of his favorite things to do.

Whistler, Jillian, Scud, Abby, and King sat around the dining room table eating dinner. Blade was shooting up his serum and asked to be alone for an hour to mediate. The sun was due to rise in a half an hour and after dinner everyone was going to bed. They had a big plan for the next night. Scud noticed that Jillian was abnormally quiet. She was pushing her food around the plate and hadn't actually eaten anything. He put his hand under the table and started rubbing her leg but she didn't look at him. After a while, Jillian excused herself. Scud tried to hid his grin and waited for a few minutes before he got up and followed her.

Scud walked into the little bathroom and saw the room was filled with steam. The shower was on but she was sitting on the floor, her back against one of the bathroom walls. She had her knees drawn up and her arms resting on them. Her eyes were closed when he shut the door. He walked over to her and came down on his knees. He touched her arms.

" Are you okay?" He asked as she opened her eyes.

" We need to talk. The shower is on so if anyone is listening they wouldn't be able to hear us." She said. He frowned slightly.

" What's going on?" Scud asked. When she didn't respond, he started rubbing her arms. " You can tell me anything, you know that. I mean, are you pregnant cause if you are, I'm okay with that. It's bad timing but we will deal with it." She shook her head.

" I'm not pregnant." She said.

" You might be okay with it, but I won't be." Whistler said as he came into the bathroom. Scud stood up and looked behind him.

" What the hell are you doing here?" Scud asked.

" This conversation involves all of us." Blade said as he walked in. Scud backed up to the bathroom counter.

" What the hell is going on?" He asked.

" You better have a seat. You aren't going to like this plan." Whistler said.
