“You sure you’re up for this?” Daniel asked.

Trevor glanced at him out of the corner of his eye. “I’m fine.”

“This is serious, Trevor. A lot is depending on this. I told MJ you could handle it.”

“It was serious before. I’m fine. When are we leaving?”

“Few days. They’re still getting supplies ready and plotting out logistics.”

“What the hell do they think we’re gonna find up there?”

Daniel shrugged. “Beats me. Hope?”

“Not a whole lot of that lying around.”

“It’s not your fault Trevor. You’ve gotta move past it.”

“If everyone stopped telling me how it wasn’t my fault, maybe I would.”

Daniel frowned. He stood up and started to walk around the room, swinging his arms back and forth.

“Sit down,” Trevor growled. “You’re making me nervous.”

“Well, I’m nervous. I’m gonna go, I’ve gotta help Max with the suits. Chloe is in the game room with Grayson. Keep an eye on them,” Daniel said then opened the door to leave.

“Daniel?” Trevor called.

He paused and turned back.

“I was supposed to go with them. That’s the only reason Sherry left, I told her I’d go. But…but, I over slept. She’s dead because of me.”

Daniel didn’t respond. He crossed the living room and placed his hand on Trevor’s shoulder while kneeling beside him. “We all thought that we knew better. We all played some part. But you didn’t make her go. You didn’t make any of them go. That was their choice.”

Trevor wiped the tears from his cheek then stared Daniel in the face. “Yeah…yeah, you’re right. Get out of here already. I’m sure Max is waiting for you.”

“You okay?”

“Yeah, I’ll be fine. You’re right…I know you’re right.”

Daniel grabbed Trevor and pulled him forward into his arms. “I love you man. It’ll get easier, I promise it will.”

Trevor collected himself and watched Daniel leave. Once he’d vanished down the hall, Trevor closed the door and sat down at the kitchen table.

“I’m sorry,” he mumbled to himself and pulled a pocket knife from his jeans.

Flicking it open, he moved the placemat from the table, revealing a string of grooves that had been carved into the table. As he wiped the tears that rolled down his cheek, he dug the tip of the knife into the wood and finished his message.

“I couldn’t save you, I couldn’t save myself. Mckinsey, Keyon, Hanson, Antonio, Sherry & Trevor”
