“We need to watch her more closely guys. We never should have allowed that to happen today.” Kade sighed.

“We will.” I agreed. I’d never take my damned eyes off her ever again.

“There’s something else we need to talk about.” Kyle said seriously. I sat up, worried, and waited for him to go on. “She was out of it when I found her and not making a lot of sense, but she wanted her parents. She kept on saying she had nothing, that she was gone. Her home, her whole street, has been abandoned and is messed up. She was asking me why she survived what she did, to come back to nothing.” Kyle stopped talking abruptly, as though he dared not go on.

“She wanted to have died?” Matt said from the bed. I looked up and found him sat up. Looking at all of us.

“Yeah. That’s what she said. I don’t know if she meant it, or if it was just because she was in a state, but I think, for a while at least, we need to keep an eye on her and make sure we all know if anything like that comes up at all.”

“She wouldn’t do that.” I protested, shocked. “She’s so strong. She fought and she survived. She wouldn’t do that now, would she?”

“She came home thinking her home would be waiting for her, with loving parents and a good life. Instead she was completely alone. It must be a scary world for her right now.” Matt sounded so flat as he spoke and I hated to hear him that way. It reminded me of the crushed ten year old boy he had been the first day I met him, when Jenny brought him into the house for the first time.

“She’s not alone now. She has all of us, and our family. She’ll never be alone.” Kade ground out through clenched teeth. I was sure he, like me, hated the idea she was that desperate. “We need to prove that to her, then that is what we do.”

“I agree. She had a really bad day yesterday. She might not have meant what she said. We just need to make sure she sees how much we all care about her and want her here.” I agreed.

“And do we?” Kyle asked, his voice even quieter. “All care for her?”

“Of course we do!” Matt snapped.

“I think Kyle’s asking if we more than care for her.” I hurried to add, seeing Matt getting mad at Kyle even daring to question his feelings for Livy.

“You think she’s the one?” Kade asked.

“Don’t you?” Kyle countered with raised eyebrows.

“Yeah, I do. I have feelings for her that started the second I saw her.”

“Me too.” I admitted, relieved they were talking about what had been plaguing my thoughts.

“And me.” Matt agreed. “She’s special. I really think…..hope we could make it work with her.”

“I agree, but we need to go really slow with her. She needs time. She’s been through so much. She’s not ready for us all to start turning it on with her.
