Miss you

Misty's heart still goes out to Alec as he continues to talk. She really did feel bad for him and wish there was more she could do. Alec was like a brother, like family, to see him hurt, hurt her too.

   "I know it does seem hopeless but my life wouldn't be better without you and..."

Stepping a few more feet closer Misty takes Alec's hand that was not hurt and hold it for a second giving a smile. Moving his hand again Misty takes it and places it on her stomach that was slowly becoming bigger.

   "Your neice or nephew would sure miss knowing you too. Not to mention the little girl that will be coming to visit this week end."

Giving a smile to Alec Misty nods to his hand before turning and walking twords the door having Alec follow.

   "Come on let's her that fixed up for you."

Giving a laugh Dalton gives a wince. He was way to happy though and couldn't hold it back even if it hurt.

   "Well I guess the next step would be me getting healthy and out of here. Than..."

Dalton once again can't help the smile that spread across his face. His own stomach flipped just thinking about the whole thing. Dani really was going to be his wife.

   "Than we have a wedding to plan."

Without Alec Banks

Alec gives a quiet little half-laugh as he keeps his eyes on his task. "Ya know... at one point, having someone worry about me was annoying. I guess now though... it's kinda nice to know someone cares enough to worry."

He really was grateful that Misty had taken him in and accepted him, being his friend and sister. No one else had gone to such lengths and it had helped him get his footing again. He only wished now that there was one other person in particular who would care about him... but she didn't anymore.

Pain shooting through his finger causes him to flinch, dropping his sandpaper. A curse slips out under his breath as he looks at his finger where the wooden sliver had dug in deeply under his skin. Great.

Sighing he rolls his eyes. "Perfect way to end the day. Why not?"

Glancing to Misty, he just studies her quietly for several moments, his shoulders bent in defeat. "I understand my life isn't over," he finally responds to her previous statement. "I'm just finding it hard to believe it's worth living anymore. I sure haven't found anything lately to convince me it is. Besides, I have a feeling the world would be a better place without Alec Banks to screw it up all the time."

He reaches up and turns off the light, aiming for the little door and abruptly ending that conversation. "You got a pair of tweezers in the house? I gotta get this stupid splinter out of my finger."

Taking Dalton's hand in hers, Dani lifts it to her lips to give it a kiss, her eyes and smile still beaming. "And you mean the world to me, Dalton." 

After a moment or two of silence, another giggle escapes. "I have no idea what to say or do next."
