     Mr. Blue, who's name turns out to be Klein, offers me a drink of water and some cookies that someone from his work had baked. I sit down with him and we talk for about 10 minutes until Blake finally arrives.

     "Dad, I'm home." I hear Blake call as he comes through the door and shuts it behind him.

     "Well you have a guest." Klein replies smiling.

     Blake walks through the opening to the kitchen and freezes. He looks as though he has just seen a ghost. I was hoping he'd be a little more glad to see me.

     "Shay, what are you doing here?" He asks sharply.

     "Well, I figured since you stopped by my house for dinner, I'd stop by yours to talk to you about some stuff. That's not a problem, is it?" I ask with a faux sad face.

     "Now Blake, talk to the nice girl." Klein scolds while standing up to exit the room, "it was very nice to meet you Shay and I am so sorry for your loss." He says as he exits the room.

     Once hes gone I start questioning Blake. "Why would you not tell me that Kevin is your brother?" I ask angrily.

     "Shay, I know that you and my brother used to have a thing...." He pauses, "and I also know that my brother was accused of killing Matt, I just didn't want my family to ruin things for us."

     "Blake, there isn't an us." I stand up and start to leave the house. I knew I'd regret coming here.

     Before I reach the door Blake grabs my arm and turns me around to face him. "You're right Shay, there isn't an us but I was hoping that there could be. You're one of the most beautiful, genuine people I've ever met... I don't want to mess thing up with you."

     I look into his dark brown eyes and I'm rendered helpless. "Blake, don't keep secrets from me. Please."

     "Never again." He promises. Just as he leans in for a kiss the front door opens.

     "What's going on here?"
