Chapter Two

"Remember my friend, Ban Gates?" Riley asks her.

Kyle nods, listening intently, waiting to hear what she could be possibly joining him on?

"Well, you know about the Free Masons and Templar's Treasure, "He starts, "Well, been found the Charlotte."

Kyle's eyes go wide. She remembers when she met Ben and he told her all about the treasure and his ancestor, Thomas Gates. She believes him, too. It's such a fascinating legend.

"No freaking way. That is so amazing!" Kyle screaming in excitement, with a smile on her face.

"And I wanted you to come with us." Riley offers.

"Really? You know I couldn't pass up an offer like that." She states.

Riley smiles, glad that she said yes.

"So, when do we leave?" she asks.

His face fell and he bites his lower lip be fore cautiously saying, "Tomorrow…morning."

Kyle's mouth drops.

"Oh my God! You wait now to tell me? I need to get all my crap packed." She freaks out, standing up from the couch.

"Okay, calm down." Riley says, standing up also.

Kyle looks at him with a glare. He backs up a little.

"We'll go to your place and get your stuff. Then, you can bunk here." Riley explains.

"And Ben? Does he know?" she asks.

"Yes. We got an extra ticket, just in case." He adds.

"Okay. Let's go, then." She says, grabbing her jacket.

"We're taking my car." She calls to him from the door.

Riley frowns and mumbles, "Of course we are. We always drive in the death trap."

Kyle's Apartment

"Your place is so much cleaner than mine." Riley comments as they walk in.

"Really? Haven't noticed." Kyle replies a little sarcasticly.

Riley frowns as they walk into her bed room. Riley sits on her bed, as she pulls a suitcase from underneath it.

"So, are you going to back a load of stuff?" he asks.

Kyle sighs as she puts a couple shirts into the suitcase.

"No. That's only because I know we won't be gone that long." She answers, not putting jeans in it.

"Alright. Oh yeah, don't forget to being a carry on." Riley reminds her.

Kyle stops and looks at him. She had already forgotten they will be flying there and if there's anything that she fears, it's flying…and spiders.

"Oh, yeah. You have a fear of flying." He adds in with a sympathetic voice.

Kyle looks down and then starts packing again.

"I never knew why you were afraid, tough." He states, thought she can tell he wanted to know.

And he should They're friends and Riley has the right to know.

"When I was fifteen, my parents and I were on a flight to California for my birthday, "she takes a deep breath before continuing, "We hit turbulence and I ignored it. I mean, it was nothing but then it got worse. They tried doing this thing were they stop the engine of the plane and let it drop then turn it back on. But, it wouldn't turn back on." Kyle feels tears well up in her eyes as she keeps explaining the horrible thing that happen so many years ago.

"They plane crashed in an forest in Arizona. I was the only survivor on that flight." She finishes, wiping tears away from her face, trying not to mess up her make up.

Riley pulls her into a hug to comfort her.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked." He apologizes.

Kyle pulls away and looks at him.

"No, don't worry. You would've found out sooner or later." She says and gets back up, continuing her packing.

Riley drops his down, so he is looking at his lap. He really wish he didn't ask. What happened to Kyle is…just devastating. For her to live with that fact that she was the only one to survive must be good but horrible at that same. He had know clue that that was the past she has had to live with for so many years.

"Alright. Let's go." She says, suitcase in hand and an extra bag of things.

Riley had been spaced out to where he didn't notice that time had gone by faster than he thought. He gets up and follows Kyle out of her room. They leave the small apartment and head out to Kyle's car or as Riley likes to call it "The Death Trap" since Kyle loves driving really fast and she always has since college when she got that car. Which, this of course, scared Riley half to death when ever she would drive a car.

Sorry it's short, but I hope you like it anyways. Please review! I love getting them and the next Chapter Will be out soon!!! Love you all!
