Sorry for the long wait guys, it's quite hard to find time for us to write the story together. It involves many skype calls, and skype isn't exactly reliable. Hope you enjoy reading!

Chapter 2

"Make yourself at home," Luke commented, shutting the door. Sanjay stood in the hallway, awkwardly, holding his suitcase in front of him. Luke placed his suitcase over by the bottom of the stairs and reached for Sanjay's, placing it alongside his own. He then began making his way towards the kitchen, calling for Sanjay to follow suit.

"Do you want a drink?" Luke asked, smiling over at his boyfriend.

"Uh… water's fine," Sanjay mumbled, standing quietly in the doorway. Luke observed the other lad for a moment, before shrugging his shoulders and heading over to the fridge before turning back to face Sanjay.

"Do you want bottled or tap?" Luke queried, realising that it had been rude of him to just assume that Sanjay wanted bottled water.

"Whatever's easiest," Sanjay answered, with another shrug of his shoulders.

"You can relax you know; it's still only you and me here at the moment," Luke assured. Luke reached into the fridge and grabbed a bottle of water.

"Just a little nervous, that's all, of meeting your Mum," Sanjay let out a shaky laugh and took that bottle of water that Luke offered him. "Thanks."

Luke pulled his phone charger out of his rucksack and proceeded to plug it in.

"Mum's at work," Luke waved a hand in dismissal. "I forgot that Mum was working today; she only works Saturday's once in a blue moon." He picked up the phone. "I'll just give her a quick ring and let her know that we're home," Luke squeezed himself past Sanjay and into the hallway where he picked up the landline phone from its holder; using the landline instead of his mobile, because his mobile was out of battery.

Luke knew better though. He knew his mother wasn't really working; she was probably out with Clyde, Rani and Sky, saving the planet from another alien attack or something. But Sanjay didn't know anything about that world, and so Luke had created the lie of her being at work, to cover for them.

He dialled his Mother's mobile number and it rang for a few moments. Sanjay, who was still in the kitchen doorway, called out to Luke.

"Luke, there's a phone ringing in here."

Luke, still ringing his Mum, walked into the kitchen – but stopped as he recognised the ringtone of the phone that was ringing. The landline was placed on the table, still ringing Sarah-Jane, and Luke made his way towards her jacket, which was on the back of a kitchen chair. He dug into her pocket and pulled out the mobile, which was ringing loudly in the silence of the house. The caller ID showed that it was 'Home' ringing.

The ringing stopped, as the landline cut through to answer phone. Luke let his mother's mobile fall flat in his hand and he stared at it for a moment or two.

"Luke?" Sanjay asked. "Everything okay?"

"Its… it's just… she never leaves home without her phone," Luke muttered, slightly shocked.

"Maybe… she left in a rush?" Sanjay suggested quietly.

Luke continued to stare at the phone for a moment before looking up with a smile on his face.

"Yeah, you're probably right," He agreed, putting the phone back in her jacket pocket. "Do you, uh, mind if I text one of my friends and let them know that I'm home?"

"Yeah, sure; no worries." Sanjay nodded. "And while we're on the subject; I think I'll text my Mum too."

Soon the two lads were texting away on their phones.

Sanjay's message read;

'Hiya Mum. Just 2 let u no we have arrived safe and sound. x'

Luke's message read;

'Hey Clyde. Just letting you know that me and Sanjay are home now. Where are you all? Why hasn't Mum taken her phone with her?'

"Did you… we could… Mum's going to be a while, probably; did you want to go and watch some TV to pass the time?" Luke questioned, pointing to the doorway.

"Uh… yeah, sure," Sanjay shrugged. Both lads didn't like the sudden awkwardness that had enveloped them.

As the two sat down on the sofa, about to turn the TV on, the doorbell rang.

"Ugh," Luke complained standing up again. "I'll be back in a minute."

Sanjay nodded, silently sipping on his bottle of water.

The moment Luke had opened the door, Rani pulled him into a big hug.

"I missed you too Rani," Luke laughed, hugging her back. But as he looked over at Clyde, he saw the tears shining in his eyes. And that was when he could hear Rani's quiet sobs. "Guys?" He asked, suddenly concerned.

Rani looked over her shoulders at Clyde, who shrugged in response.

"Maybe he's in denial," Clyde suggested.

"What…? Guys, I'm not in denial about anything," Luke claimed.

"What do you mean? Don't you don't know?" Rani uttered.

"Don't know what? What are you talking about?" Luke mumbled, slowly looking between his two best friends. Then he realised what was missing. "Wait? Where's Mum? Where's Sky?"

Clyde and Rani looked between themselves, before looking back at Luke.

"Haven't the police contacted you yet?" Clyde asked Luke, before looking at Rani. "They said they were going to."

"What? Police?" Luke cried, before anyone could say anything else. "What do you mean police?"

"Can we come in? I think you're going to have to sit down for this," Rani explained softly.

Luke led them into the living room where Sanjay was still sat on the sofa.

"Oh hi," Sanjay exclaimed as the new people walked in the room.

"Sanjay these are my best friends; Clyde and Rani," Luke informed Sanjay motioning to the two. "Clyde, Rani this is my boyfriend; Sanjay."

"Nice to meet you," Sanjay murmured awkwardly as he noticed their tears.

"Yeah, you too," Clyde almost whispered.

"Right, what's this about the police then?" Luke demanded to know as he sat back on the sofa next to Sanjay. "Tell me everything." He was a little disappointed over the fact that he hadn't been able to introduce the three in the way he had wanted, but at the present time there were more important things to discuss.

"Right, uhhh…." Clyde started looking at Rani. Rani burst out into tears, burrowing her head into her hands. "I can't believe I'm the one that has to do this; this is horrible," Clyde mumbled to himself. "I'm really… oh god this is really hard…" Clyde ran his hands down his face. "Sarah-Jane… I mean… your mum… she… she… she died."

The silence swept into the room, stunning them all; even Rani's sobs subsided.

Sanjay sat up and swept his hand through his hair as he observed Luke from the corner of his eye.

"Come on guys, stop joking around." Luke laughed nervously after a moment or two; not knowing what to make of the situation.

Rani looked up from her hands at Luke, disbelief crossing her face at the thought of Luke not believing them.

"Luke… I don't think there joking," Sanjay said slowly, placing a comforting hand on Luke's knee.

Luke looked desperately into Sanjay's eyes, before looking back over at Clyde and Rani. He could feel his eyes shining with tears as he realised how truthful Clyde and Rani were being.

"Oh… my… god…" Luke mumbled to himself as his eyes overflowed. Everyone was silent again as they observed Luke. "What happened? How did it happen? Where? When? Why? Why didn't I know? Why did no one tell me? What's gonna happen now? With me and Sky?" Luke paused as he came to a realisation. "Oh my god! Sky! Where's sky? Please tell me she's ok." Luke's pleas turned desperate as he ignored the tears rolling down his face. No one answered for a moment. "WHERE IS SHE?!"

"She's fine, she's with torchwood," Clyde answered quickly.


Torchwood three's temporary camp… Not too far away…

Sky was sat on the edge of the hotel bed; Gwen sat next to her, comforting the small girl as she cried.

"I wish Luke was here…" Sky blurted through her tears.

Yasmin, the team's newest member, was working away on a laptop and other portable devices. Rex, sat next to Yasmin trying to help but was being more of a hindrance. Jack was pacing the length of the room, mumbling to himself.

"We're trying as hard as we can to find him, Sky." Gwen said softly.

"Oh my god… how am I going to get a hold of the Doctor to tell him?" Jack fretted.

"The Doctor?" Sky echoed, looking up at Jack.

"Wait! I've got a lead!" Yasmin cried from the only desk in the room. Within seconds everyone was stood behind Yasmin. "There!" She said while pointing to the laptop screen. "He just contacted Clyde," she exclaimed.

"There you go Sky," Gwen smiled slightly.

"Ring Luke, tell him we have Sky." Jack ordered.

"Let me talk to him." Sky demanded, wiping her tears away.

When the call connected Luke's frantic voice echoed round the room.

"Sky?! Is that you?! Where are you?" You could hear that Luke had been crying.

"Luke, I'm fine, I'm with Torchwood. Come and get me I want to go home."
