"Hey,
I turn my head around to see Alex. I give him a small smile, hoping he's not going to moan at me.
I hope I'm not bothering you but I ... kinda have to ask for a favour."
I blink. Ok whatever I was expecting, it wasnt that. I can't think of anything he would need something from me for...
"No don't worry your not...what can I do for you?" I ask.

I smile calmly at her since she appears very surprised. Understandable actually.
"You see, when you were at work, Seth was sleeping in your bed - Serena's idea, not mine - and he might have forgotten his watch in your bed. Now that you are here, it would be rude to just walk into your room, so I wanted to ask if I could look for it. Or if you'd look for it."

I stand up and walk over to him. "Yeah thats no problem...Im sure he was really tired out. A kid like that needs his sleep. Tell you what, we can both look. Two pairs of eyes are better than one" I say.
I start to walk down the hall and I go into my room. I start looking around. "Sorry...about the mess" I say nervously as he comes in.
Theres photos I've taken all over the room. The ones on the wall are mostly nature stills. But there are few around the room of Max and Zan and Serena.
"Any idea where he would have put it?" I ask.

"I'm pretty sure that we'll find it in your bed - he was fast asleep when I brought him in here and when I woke him, we immediately headed back into the kitchen." I reply as I look around the room.
"Are all those pictures by you? Serena mentioned once that you are a photographer"

"I'm pretty sure that we'll find it in your bed - he was fast asleep when I brought him in here and when I woke him, we immediately headed back into the kitchen." he says as he looks around my room. God I hope he's not going to think its a tip or something...
"Are all those pictures by you? Serena mentioned once that you are a photographer"
I walk around to the other side of the bed. "Yeah they are actually" I say nervously. Im not sure if that he means hes impressed or if he thinks Im stuck up or if he thinks there rubbish.
....I must stop worrying about what he's thinking!!!
"Right well...lets have a look" I say as I take off the covers from my bed revealing a watch.
"Ah ha!" I say with a smile as I pick it up. "Is this what your looking for?" I ask as I hold out the watch to him.

I grin when Isabel holds out the watch. "Yes, it is. You'll forever be Seth best friend now." I laugh. "I hope you don't mind that we put him in here and that he messed up the bed sheets."
Taking another look around, I have to say. "Those pictures are really good - nothing against your brothers but I like the nature stills best."

"Yes, it is. You'll forever be Seth best friend now." he laughs....God thats a great laugh...
He takes it from me and I wish I could feel his hand on mine for more than a second...
Stop this insanity Isabel Evans! He has a wife and child for christ sakes.
"I hope you don't mind that we put him in here and that he messed up the bed sheets."
He looks around. "Those pictures are really good - nothing against your brothers but I like the nature stills best."
I smile. "Thanks...and I have to agree...just don't tell them I said that" I say giving a sheepish look. "I guess the pictures are ok...I would like them to be better though." I say shrugging.
Don't worry about the sheets...its not a problem. Seths a great kid, you and his Mom must be great parents to have such a lovely kid...he's a credit to you both"

The smile leaves my face when Isabel talks about Abby. I guess Serena didn't tell her about the car accident. Swallowing hard, I look around again, not looking at Isabel when I reply.
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure that Abby would be very proud of Seth. Well, if you don't mind, I certainly wouldn#t mind buying one or two of your pictures for my new house."
Not a very subtle topic change, I know but ... I can't help it, I just hope that Isabel won't think that I'm very rude.

Would...Oh God...you idiot Isabel. I feel like I should apologise...but he made a really obvious subject change, so perhaps I should just stay clear.
I give a slight smile, but as Im still feeling like a fool, its not very good.
"Really? Well if you wanted I could do some shots of you and Seth of course. And you don't have to buy them. Your a friend of the family, you certainly don't have to pay"

"Oh, only a wee-" Maria beings to respond to my question about her business trip. A jerking of the plane causes Maria to halt her speaking and kind of sway. I notice the flight attendant falling and then get up looking embarrassed. Hopefully the pilot makes an announcement soon.
I glance back at Maria and see that she's pale. "What was that?" She whispers and before I can reply a man behind us answers foolishly.
"It's probably the wings; they've been known to fail in these planes," I turn to see him gesturing toward the window and acting frantic. I feel the urge to punch him in the face because I am certain Maria is going to get scared now. The plane jerks again and suddenly we begin descending.
"Oh god," Maria's quiet panic reaches my ears and I'm tempted to reach over to try and reassure her.
[/]Excuse me passengers of flight 113, we are experiencing some clear air turbulence, please put on your seatbelts and sit tight, we'll be fine. [/i] The pilot comes over the intercom and makes the announcement while I calmly check my seatbelt which I always kept on unless going to the restroom.
The plane begins to descend yet again at a rapid pace and I'm beginning to wonder just what really is going on. Then Maria starts whispering, "Oh my god! I'm not ready to die, I mean, I didn't tell Tess that I stole her heels yet, and I'm too young, I mean, I'm only 24! And I've never been in love yet, everyone needs to be in love before they die, and I haven't said goodbye to anyone, oh god, we're gonna die, we're gonna die," Maria's whispered voice is filled with panic and again I'm tempted to reach out to her.
When the plane jerks for a fourth time, Maria's hand is suddenly gripping mine on the arm rest and I note she's got a rather strong grip. Looking at our hands I see her knuckles going white and sigh, giving into the temptation to comfort the beautiful blonde beside me. "Please don't let us die, please."
Carefully reaching over, I remove her hand from mine only to place my arm around her shoulder and take her hand in my other one. "We'll be alright, Maria. Don't worry. We're not going to die." I speak, trying to remain calm myself and help ease her tension. She said she hadn't been in love, which made me feel bad for the poor guy she's involved with. If she wasn't in love with him, then it wasn't going to work. And she's only three years younger then myself. Which, I couldn't help but think was interesting.
"You'll have plenty of time to fall in love." I continued quietly, my hand runs through her hair lightly as a form of comfort. I want nothing more then to make certain she calms down. Tension is the most dangerous thing in any form of accident and if the plane actually is experiencing more then turbulance I'd rather her not be at risk of major damage caused from her own tension. The place dips again and I draw her toward me to keep her from going to the other side as it causes us to dip toward the aisle. "Try to relax."
