For most of the afternoon, Connor and I watched Lexi and Tyler while Harry went to find some of his friends. He seemed a little unsure about leaving them, which hey, I understood probably better than anyone. Hell when Connor was first born I wouldn't let my closest friends carry him around the hotel much less let him out of my sight. The kids ( Read more... )

After Nicole and I brought the kids back up to shore from their swim, Tyler and Alexia fell asleep on the blanket. For awhile I sat on the blanket with them, watching them as they slept and gave Faith time to catch up with her sister and grab some sleep for herself. The kids were getting so big, but they were still these tiny people who I wanted to ( Read more... )

When Dad told me to never come back if I walked out that door I don't think this is what he meant. Being stuck on an island where we can't get out and my head is going completely nuts is not an easy situation. Dean and I, we don't know what to fight and that's never good ( Read more... )

Nicole agreed to come with me to see the kids so we made our way through the jungle to get back to the beach. I figured that Faith would be ok with Nicole since she was our kids aunt and a slayer. She wasn't going to let me hurt the kids anymore than Faith would. Besides, it was becoming really clear that Faith and I needed to learn to deal with ( Read more... )

I watched her from behind a brush that was seperatin' me from the sand. Guess she was done with Dawn already - hysterical bit she was and I never even realized how close her and Harry were. Odd that but I havent' been around, I wouldn't know. But, I do know who Dawn is and I know who Harry is and I guess ... well, I just won't get into that. Least ( Read more... )

Jack wasn't givin' up that gun, I could see it in his eyes. Shame too, cause I wasn't fucking around when I said that I'd hurt him if I had to but I'd rather not. Some guys just can't let go, ya know? They cling to the one last little shred of something they used to believe in, even when it's totally pointless. Without another warning I grabbed him ( Read more... )

This island was Hell. That was what I'd figured out after being here as long as we had, and hearing the stories we'd heard. Crazy island scientists, expirimenting on and torturing people. Deaths. Some girl that looked exactly like Tess, and had a baby, but apparently wasn't Tess. Or at least Liz was pretty convinced. I wasn't so sure, but I stayed ( Read more... )

I was about halfway to the beach when I caught the scent of my sister. Immediately I stopped and stepped into the shadows of the bushes so that I could check my surroundings. There was no telling if she knew what had happened to me or not. She was a slayer and her instincts would be to stake me. I couldn't let that happen. I watched as she ( Read more... )

I had just headed into the jungle, trying to herd people out of it and keep everyone to the beach. After Faith and the others had come back and we'd been given all of the details about what had happened on the other side of the island, with the Others, we'd all made a pretty much mutual decision to try and keep everyone to the beach and as close to ( Read more... )

I didn't know if Buffy was just trying to coddle me or if we were really doing what I'd asked. I didn't want to think that she would just pat me on the head and try to make me feel better but I also knew that I was acting a little more than crazy. Then again what would you do if you'd been trapped in a cave for days to come out and find out your ( Read more... )
