Roman and Mark waved at Dean, Seth, and AJ as they walked in. The guys joined them at the bar.
"So what happened?", Dean asked.
"By what Shane and Hunter said, we might get off. Emerald's story didn't add up.", Mark said.
"What happened?", AJ asked.
"A student accused these guys of trying to force themselves on to her. Which isn't true.", Seth explained.
AJ nodded, but kept his eyes on Roman. He needed to have a serious talk with Nala before he said anything to this man.
Nala and Kathan were sitting in a room waiting for Elisa. They were worried she and Kris had left before they got there. Elisa walked in.
"What's going on? Joe said you weren't feeling well", she said worried.
Nala started crying. Kathan sighed.
"She might be pregnant", Kathan said.
Elisa looked between the girls.
"Its your teacher's isn't it?", Elisa asked.
Nala couldn't speak. She saw the disappointment on Elisa's face.
"Let's get this over with", Elisa sighed.
After the guys left, Roman and Mark were standing by their cars.
"I was thinking, we should do something for the girls. Obviously not around town, but we could drive a good distance. Enjoy the town, maybe stay over night and drive back Sunday", Roman suggested.
"That sounds like a good idea. How about taking them up to my cabin? Its big enough for all of us. You two can have downstairs and Kaye and I will take the up. There's a lake near by too", Mark suggested.
Roman nodded.
"Sounds good. Let me know what you want me to bring.", Roman said.
Mark nodded.
"I'll see you tomorrow for the gym", Mark said, before getting on his bike.
"Yup. We have nothing better to do", Roman said.
"Actually, after the gym want to help me look for a lawyer. Michelle's been threatening me with taking full custody of Alana and", he sighed.
He was exhausted just talking about it. Roman nodded and got on his truck.
"I've got your back", Roman said.
Elisa walked back in. She had given Nala a pregnancy test from the store and did some blood work.
"Its positive", Elisa said, showing the girls the test.
"Could it be wrong?", Kathan asked.
"No. False negatives, yes but not false positives.", Elisa said.
Nala started crying.
"I won't tell your dad Nala, because I think you should. As for Roman, he needs to know too", Elisa said.
"My dad is going to make sure Roman ends up behind bars. I can't tell him he's my baby's father.", Nala said scared.
"Or he might not. You don't know Nala, talk to your dad", Elisa said.
Nala nodded.
"What time do you and Kris leave?", Kathan asked.
"In a few hours, with what happened at the school, Kris pushed back our flights", Elisa said.
Kathan nodded.
"Are you sleeping with your teacher too?", Elisa asked suddenly.
Kathan hesitated before nodding. Elisa looked frustrated. Kathan knew it was because she was keeping her and Nala's secret from her brother.
"I'm still on birth control", Kathan said.
"It doesn't matter. This is wrong on so many levels", she said, before walking out of the room.
"She doesn't like lying to your brother and honestly I don't like it either. It could hurt their relationship Kaye. We shouldn't have told her anything", Nala said, feeling bad.
"I know, me too", Kathan said softly.
Nala grabbed her bag and the girls walked out.
"Hey, what are you two doing here?", Kris asked, confused to see them.
"I wasn't feeling well", Nala jumped in.
Kris nodded.
"Everything ok? Did you get checked out?", Kris asked.
Nala nodded.
"Ok", Kris said.
He pulled out his wallet and handed Kathan some money.
"Why don't you two order pizza or something, on me", Kris said smiling.
"Thanks", both girls said.
They left and Joe joined Kris.
"Did Nala tell you what was wrong with her?", Joe asked.
Kris shook his head no while signing a paper.
"Its also none of my business, as long as she isn't dying", Kris said.
"Did you know Kaye had a boyfriend?", Joe asked.
Kris stopped and looked over at his long time friend.
"Had? Past tense", Kris said.
"I think so", Joe said.
"I didn't, but I know she's more than capable of handling it and obviously it didn't mean anything because she would have told me", Kris said.
"Unless she didn't because he was older", Joe said.
Kris stepped closer to Joe.
"Alright I'll bite, it's obvious you know something, now spill. How much older?", Kris said.
"Not sure", Joe said.
Kris rubbed his eyes.
"What's your deal with my sister anyway? Jealous?", Kris asked laughing.
When the serious expression on Joe's face didn't go away. Kris stopped laughing.
"Joe", Kris said.
His friend looked over at him.
"Is there something you want to tell me?", Kris asked.
"We should talk in your office", Joe said.
Kris followed after him. Once in his office, Joe sat and Kris followed.
"You and I know what Kaye as been through. I'm just looking out for her and I don't want this older guy taking advantage of her", Joe said.
Kris sighed.
"For a second there, I thought you were about to tell me you liked my sister", Kris chuckled.
"Just looking out for her", Joe said.
He did want to tell Kris he had feelings for Kaye, but seeing his reaction now. He would wait.
The next day Roman and Mark showed up to the law firm a friend of Roman's told him to check out. They walked in and a woman smiled.
"Hello, welcome to Daniels law firm", she said.
Both men smiled.
"How can I help you?", she asked.
"I need help with a custody battle", Mark said, clearing his throat.
She nodded.
"We've got just the guy to help you, but Mr. Heyman isn't in right now. I can set up an appointment for you, unless it's urgent", she said.
"Appointment will be fine", he said.
He wrote down his name and number.
"I'll make sure you're his top priority", she said.
Mark nodded and he and Roman walked out.
