Ray saw how much he had hurt Kaylee and felt horrible. He offered her a hug, to console her and to let her know that it was OK.

Kaylee accepted his hug, burrying her tear-stained face in his shoulder.

Alex peeked out to say something to Kaylee, but silently went back to hand washing the dishes when she saw them hugging. I wish someone would hold me like that when I cry. Hell, I'd even settle for just a simple hug any day.

Ray leaned back. "There, do you feel better?" he asked with a warm smile.

She nodded and smiled, whipping the remaing tears from her face. "Again, I'm sorry, Ray." She said in a calmer voice.

"Hey, it's OK." he said. Then it hit him. "Aren't we leaving today?"

"Yeah, Alex said we are leaving whenever she gets ready. Did she give you the coat?" She asked, smiling now as if the previous conflict never happened.

Alex had slipped unseen back to her room, and was nowout of ear shot of the two. She tood staring in the mirrior.

"Yeah, I'll go get it." he responded as he headed back into Alex's room.

Hm, I should probably get ready. Alex though, still staring into the mirror. Kaylee is ready. Ray is ready. But am I?

Ray walked out of Alex's room in the coat. He thought it was odd that it fitted perfectly.

"Oh it fits nice on you." Kaylee commented. She waited for Alex, but after a while, she started getting impatient. "Do you think one of us should go get her?"

"Yeah. I'll do it." he said. He walked up the stairs to the guest room. He knocked on the door. "Alex? I'm sorry for the way I acted earlier. I just needed to know. I apologize."

"It's alright." She called from behind the door. "You can come in if you like. I may be a few..."

As soon as he heard her invite him in he opened the door and walked in. He could tell something else was wrong. "Alex. Is something wrong? I mean, I don't mean to intrude. If you don't want to talk about it, then you don't have to."

"I just. I don't if I'm ready to leave yet. Nothing major. I'll get over it." She said, trying to dismiss it. Yet the fact that she was now pacing and smoothing her hair back every five seconds, said otherwise.
