Chapter 8 Brenda had just hung up on Ned after he asked her if she had seen anybody in the hotel. This upset Sonny, because he is afraid that Ned is going to think something is wrong. Brenda: I’ll just call Ned back and calm him down. Sonny: Sounds good, but don’t use your cell phone. Brenda: Good idea, that way I can just tell Ned that my cell phone went out and that was why the connection was cut. Sonny: That, and the fact that I need your cell phone to call Luke. Brenda: Luke is out of town, remember, that’s why you came to me for help? Sonny: True, but he has a special number that can only be reached with a cell phone. Brenda: Where are you calling? Sonny: If I knew where he was that would be half of the problem solved. Brenda: You better reverse the billing, because there is no way I’m paying for a really long distance call! Sonny: *Sarcastically* Yes sweetie. Brenda: Don’t call me that! I’m not your sweetie or your baby or your anything! Sonny: I don’t know about that. You seem to be stuck on me! After all, your are the one that handcuffed yourself to me, it was not the other way around. Brenda: How many times do I have to tell you? It was an accident, I’m going to call Ned and if I feel like it maybe I’ll tell him to come get you! She reaches over and picks up the hotel phone and then moves as far away from his as she can. She dials the main desk and has Ned paged. Ned: Brenda? Brenda: Yes, I’m sorry about earlier. On top of everything else tonight, I guess my cell phone battery is running low. Ned: Brenda, where are you? I called your Penthouse and you weren’t there. Brenda: I’m in your suite. Ned: That is strange, I just sent some guys down there because they thought they saw light coming from the suite. Brenda: I must have been in the shower. Ned: What’s wrong with your shower? Brenda: The water was cold, the heater must have gone out. Ned: You should have called the manager. Brenda: I didn’t want to bother him. Now, what were you saying about the police looking for someone? Ned: It’s actually the FBI that is involved in the search. Brenda: How exciting, is it man, woman or animal? Knowing the Port Charles police department, you never can tell. Ned: This is serious, Brenda, the man they are looking for is wanted for murder! Brenda: *Trying to sound calm.* Anybody I know? Ned: Why would you ask that? Brenda: Most local murders involve a Quartermaine as a suspect. Ned: This wasn’t local. I don’t know the person that they are looking for by name, and I don’t really care. Brenda: Well, I’ll keep my door locked. Good night, Ned. Ned: Wait, Brenda, are you okay? Brenda: Of course, why do you ask? Ned: You just seem nervous. I understand now, the shower was a clue. Brenda: I’m fine, really. Ned: The shower in my suite is on the same hot water heater as the one in your penthouse. Brenda: Maybe it was something else than. Ned: Don’t worry, I’m on my way up, and I’ll bring the police! Just sit tight. Brenda: No, Ned! Ned, don’t hang up! Brenda slams the phone down in aggravation. Sonny has just finished talking to Luke. Sonny: Good news, Luke was just in Rochester. He is going to meet me at the safe house and help me out. Brenda: That’s great! Now for the bad news, Ned does think that there is something wrong. He doesn’t know that the authorities are after you, but he is thinks the guy they are after has me as his prisoner or something. He is on the way up, with back up! Sonny: Just when I was getting comfortable, I have to leave. Brenda: Don’t you mean, we have to leave? She holds up her arm that is still handcuffed to his arm. Sonny: You know, I would tear off my own left arm right now, if I thought it would protect you! Brenda: It’s your right arm, Sonny, but if you did that you might dislocate your shoulder and you need it to shoot straight! Face it, for the time being you’re stuck with me! Sonny: I can’t think of anybody else that I would want to be this close to for an extended period of time. She gives him a almost loving look and a heartfelt smile, that quickly turns to disappointment. Brenda: Now, Why Didn’t You Tell Me That The FBI Was After You For Murder? Sonny: Would you have turned me in? Brenda: Probably not! Sonny: Then We’ll talk about it later, Brenda, I’m trying to escape from here, before Ned and the other boy scouts arrive! He starts stuffing everything useful he can find around the room into his black carry on bag. Brenda: The more things change, the more you stay the same, Sonny. Almost reluctantly, she helps him fill the bag. Sonny: Don’t forget the bread and cheese, and grab your cell phone. Brenda: I already have it in my purse! Sonny: Lets go then, we want to beat Ned and the regiment of law enforcement! Chapter 9 Sonny and Brenda made it out of the hotel and to the safe house in a little over 3 hours. When they got near the house Brenda recognized it as the place that Jason had hid out when she was suspected of killing Pierce Dorman. Sonny hunted in the bushes until he found the key for the door. Brenda followed him into the house. Sonny: Do you want something to drink, or anything while we wait for Luke? Brenda: How about the whole story? Sonny: *Innocently* Which one would that be? Brenda: Come on, Ned said that the person the Feds were looking for was wanted for murder. Sonny: What else did he say? Brenda: That was enough. He didn’t know they were looking for you, but it won’t take him long to find out and when he does he’s going to know that I helped you. Sonny, I need to know what I’ve gotten into. Sonny: Isn’t it a little late for you to back out? Brenda: Yeah, I guess it is. So since we’re in this together, I think that I deserve to know where it started. Sonny: Lets sit down. He leads her to the couch and they sit. He runs his free hand through his hair, he hated to do this. He always believed that he could protect her by not telling her things. Maybe this time she was right, maybe he should tell her. Sonny: It’s just so hard for me to do this. Brenda: I know, you have trouble trusting me, ever since I wore the wire it’s been like that. Sonny: No, that’s not it. This has nothing to do with trust. I was wrong not to trust you, you’ve proved yourself more times than I have a right to count. Brenda: I don’t understand then, why can’t you tell me what happened? Sonny: When I don’t want to tell you things it isn’t because I don’t trust you. It has never been about trust. Brenda: What then? Sonny: Everything that I’ve ever kept from you has been to protect you. Every mistake I’ve ever made has been for the same reason, to protect you, because I love you. Brenda: Sonny, can you honestly say that you trust me at this very moment? Sonny: I just said that I do. Brenda: Than trust that I don’t need your protection. Right now I need the truth more than I need protection. Sonny: It started right after I left Port Charles last July. Brenda: What started? Sonny: I guess you would call it harassment. At first it was just rowdy customers, people that wouldn’t pay tabs or others that just came in and caused a disturbance. Brenda: Haven’t you dealt with that kind of stuff before? Sonny: It would happen occasionally when I was running the Paradise Lounge. You tend to get more of that kind of crowd when you run a strip joint. This time I had more muscle though, so the problems didn’t last. Brenda: Did things calm down after that? Sonny: For a while, then I started to have supply problems. I ended up short on shipments of everything from linen napkins to liquor to food. Brenda: Did you switch suppliers? Sonny: I tried, but it was the same story every place I went. By then I had figured out that something was up. Then some of my girls came to me and said that they had been approached to leave my revue. Brenda: * Puzzled* What girls? Sonny: I have 6 girls that perform in a show at my casino. Brenda: *Slightly jealous* What kind of show? Sonny: It’s not a strip show, if that is what your asking. Brenda: I wasn’t suggesting that it was. Sonny: It’s just a little musical revue, Brenda. Why, does it bother you that I’m surrounded by tall, beautiful women, that don’t mind it when I "Protect them?" Brenda: Why would it bother me? You should feel free to surround yourself with as many beautiful women as you want. Why not have 31, a different one for every day of the month? Sonny: *Giving her a seductive smile* What would I do when the month had less than 31 days? Some one would end up feeling left out! Brenda: *Trying to ignore his comment* Why don’t you go on with your story. So these women that you "protect," they started getting better offers? Sonny: Not better offers, just different ones. Brenda: Did any of them take the other offers? Sonny: No, and in the end I didn’t really protect them any better than I’ve protected anybody else in my life. Brenda: What do you mean? Sonny: Well, the supply problems weren’t really hurting me that much, so whoever is behind this decided to hit me in the jugular vein. One of my girls didn’t show up for work one night, three days later she was found floating face down in the local water supply. Brenda: Somebody killed her? Sonny: Yeah, and it wasn’t a very pretty way to die. Brenda: Did they think that you killed her? Sonny: For a while, but I had an alibi. I was with someone at the established time of her death. It didn’t end there though. I started looking for information on who killed her, because people can mess with me and they can mess with my club, but I won’t stand for anybody messing with my girls. Brenda: Did you find out who killed her? Sonny: I was very close, then I got a tip that there was information in a warehouse on the other side of the island. I set up a time to meet my contact there. Brenda: Did you go alone? Sonny: *Laughing nervously* That was the deal. Anyway, when I got there. He stops and closes his eyes tightly, as if it is too painful or dangerous to go on. Brenda: You’ve told me this much, don’t stop now. Sonny: What I saw in that warehouse can only be described as carnage. I’ve never seen so much blood or so many dead bodies in one place in my whole life. My contact was dead, along with all my suppliers and several local authorities that I had deals with. I had been set up in the worst way. Before I even realized what was going on, police swarmed on me. They locked me up in the smallest cell I’ve ever seen. My worst nightmare couldn’t have concocted this place. Brenda: How did you get out and to Port Charles? Sonny: The first chance I got, I ran. Brenda: You got all the way to my penthouse balcony with one hand cuffed? Sonny: No, that didn’t happen until a bounty hunter caught up with me in upper New York. Brenda: *Shaking her head* You are unbelievable! Sonny: It’s all true, Brenda. Brenda: I don’t doubt it, not even you could make that story up. Chapter 10 Sonny gave her a very intense look. Sonny: Okay, I told you my story. Now I want to hear yours. Brenda: I don’t have one. Sonny: When will you learn that you can’t lie to me, Brenda. As charming as I am, I know that you didn’t handcuff yourself to me, just because you couldn’t bear to let me out of your sight. Brenda: The handcuffing was an accident. Sonny: That may be true, but it is going to be a while before Luke gets here and unlocks us. So It’s going to be a long night, so you can start telling me the truth any minute from now. What are you running away from, Brenda? Brenda: Nothing, my life is perfect, Jax is perfect! Sonny: I knew that there is something that you aren’t telling me about your relationship with Jax. I think it is time for you to start leveling with me! Brenda: Sonny, don’t! She looks away from him, nearly in tears. He puts a hand on one of her shoulders, trying to comfort her, and lowers his voice. Sonny: There has to be honesty between us, or we’ve got nothing. Our survival could depend on it. Brenda: I can’t, it has nothing to do with us. Sonny: It has to do with why you are here. What are you running from Brenda? Brenda: I was pregnant. Sonny: "was pregnant?" Brenda: I miscarried. Sonny; I’m sorry. What happened? Brenda: My hip was really starting to bother me, so I was back on pain killers. Sonny: Brenda, No! Brenda: It wasn’t like that. I wasn’t addicted, it was localized so it dulled the pain, but didn’t dull me. Sonny: Who would prescribe anything like that to a pregnant woman? Brenda: When the doctor prescribed them, I wasn’t. Jax and I weren’t even trying to have a baby. Anyway, by the time any of us realized that I was pregnant it was to late. He puts his arms around her and embraces her tightly. Sonny: I’m sorry. I know how it feels to loose a child. It is a pain that can’t ever be dulled. I wouldn’t wish it on any one, not even my worst enemy. How did Jax take it? Brenda: That is the problem, he wouldn’t talk about it that much. At first he did the whole, "It wasn’t your fault Brenda," bit. Then he just shut down. I still needed to grieve, I needed to go through the whole process. Sonny: I know, it might not have been a child that you held or saw, but the feeling of grief is the same. Brenda: You understand, why couldn’t Jax? He tried to pretend that it never happened, that I was never pregnant. Sonny: People grieve in different ways, I guess. Brenda: I needed him more during that time than I ever needed him before. He wasn’t there for me, and our relationship hasn’t been the same ever since. Sonny: I’m so sorry. I wish I Had Been There. I could have been a friend or someone that you yelled at or anything. What ever you needed. He holds her tightly and she rests her head on his shoulder, as soft tears cascade down her face . Brenda: At least your here now. You are willing to listen. That is more than I can say for Jax. He takes his thumb and wipes the tears from her face. She looks so sad, yet so beautiful, he wants to make her feel better anyway that he can. Sonny: How did you get through it? Brenda: I joined a support group and now I go to weekly group therapy sessions. Sonny: So that is why you are here. Your running away from your anger towards Jax? Brenda: No, I came to terms with that anger a while back. I changed my life and that doesn’t bother me anymore. Things were going okay between Jax and me. Sonny: It sounds to me like you finally became the stronger Brenda. Brenda: Yeah, I guess I did. I really changed. Sonny: Then why are you here? Brenda: I changed, Jax didn’t. He is still the same. He still treats me like a spoiled child. He buys me things instead of spending time with me and then goes off for business in far away places. Sure, he makes me feel loved and appreciated and safe, but I live in a cage. It is a gilded one, but it is still a cage. Sonny: I thought that feeling loved, appreciated and safe were all you ever wanted. Brenda: I thought so too, but I never counted on being bored! I’m Bored Stiff! Sonny: *laughs* I knew that you wouldn’t last long with predictable Jasper Jacks. Since you have helped me out so many times, I’m going to save you and let you come along with me, if you wish. Brenda: Isn’t it dangerous? Sonny: At the risk of turning you off, I’m going to tell you the truth. I’m just after information on this trip. I’m not running away from anybody this time, I’m running to information that can clear me and get rid of the threat that has been hanging over me, and to a certain extent, Jason as well. Brenda: If you get too close to the person who is causing all of the trouble, couldn’t it become dangerous? Sonny: There is a slight risk, yes. Brenda: I still want to help you. Sonny: Okay, then I’ll try to be as honest as possible with you. I need the same in return. Brenda: I don’t have anything to keep from you. Sonny: Good, then I need you to tell me the truth about something. Brenda: What? Sonny: The baby that you miscarried, was it mine? Was it a child that we created when we made love on the train when I was leaving Port Charles? Brenda blinks back tears and just looks at him, not answering his question. He meets her eyes with a very intense look, waiting for her answer. Chapter 11 Ned angrily paces the penthouse, while Jax tries his best to seem distraught. There are several FBI agents and local police officers wandering around, trying to find clues to a problem that Ned has already figured out. Ned is yelling at, Randolph, the agent leading the investigation. Ned: Why didn’t you tell me that the man you were looking for was, Sonny Corinthos? Randolph: Would it have made a difference? Ned: You bet it would have, at least I would have known why Brenda was acting nervous. Jax: Corinthos kidnapped, Brender! I want him caught and prosecuted. Ned reaches into his pocket and pulls out a hundred dollar bill. He places it in Jax’s hand. Jax: What’s this? Ned: Money, Go Buy A Clue! I told you once that Brenda only loves you when Sonny is conveniently not around! Sonny really lucked out this time, you weren’t even around. My guess is that Brenda probably pulled some ploy to keep him from leaving her behind. He didn’t kidnap her, she went willingly! Randolph: You believe that Ms. Barrett voluntarily made herself an accessory to murder? Ned: Find her, and ask her that question yourself. Just don’t expect her to sell out Sonny, she won’t do it! Jax: I want Corinthos in jail, where he belongs! Jax marches off in the general direction of the stairs leading to his and Brenda’s bedroom, where he sits and sulks. Ned follows him and sits beside him. Ned: You know, putting Sonny in jail isn’t going to break the bond between them. In fact, if they find Sonny, there is a good chance that Brenda will go to jail as well. We had better pray that neither one of them is caught before Sonny has a chance to do what ever he needs to do. Jax: Why does Corinthos have to keep interfering in our lives? Brenda and I were finally happy. Ned: If you really believe that, you’re a bigger fool than I ever imagined. Brenda hasn’t been happy since she lost the baby. If you weren’t always running off on business trips you would know that. Jax: I have a business to run, things come up. Besides, I always bring her gifts from wherever I’ve been. Ned: She doesn’t want gifts, she wants and needs you! This was especially true after she lost the baby. Jax: She was so sad for so long, I didn’t know how to help her after she lost the baby. Ned: Listening to her would have been a good start, knowing that you cared about the child. Jax: How could I care about someone that I never knew? Ned: Maybe that was your first mistake. Jax: No, the mistake was Brenda’s. She lost that child because she did something very wrong and was being punished. Ned: You can’t blame Brenda for a localized drug that her doctor prescribed for her. Jax: That’s not it, I don’t even think that child was mine. I think that Corinthos was the father! Ned: What would make you think that? Jax: After Brenda came home from Utah we found out that she was pregnant, but by then she had lost the child. The doctor was able to pinpoint the time of conception of the child to sometime near the day that she left for Utah or around the time of the Nurses Ball. When Brenda heard this she started to act strange. Ned: She had just lost her child, she had been through a nervous breakdown the year before. How would you expect her to act? Jax: True, she had every reason to act crazy, but she didn’t act like she did when Sonny left her at the alter. She acted more like she was acting after she and Sonny had been trapped in that cave where they had sex. Ned: Jax, when would Sonny and Brenda have had time to be together when he came back last year? She was convinced that she was in love with you and Sonny was too busy trying to stop your brother from burning down the whole town. To answer your next question, Brenda does tell me everything. How could she and Sonny have conceived a child? Jax: You know as well as I do, Corinthos is the devil. He probably just has to look at a woman to get her pregnant! Ned: That may be true, but in this case I think your wrong. I am going to do you a favor and tell you a thing or two about Brenda, and women in general. They like to be cherished and believe that they are the center of your world. Brenda needs to feel like everything that you do is for her, that you live and breath for her and would die to insure her happiness and safety. Sonny makes her feel that way, even when he is on the other side of the world. If you try to compete with that, or down play that kind of devotion, you’ll lose. Meanwhile, at the safe house, Brenda is trying to find the best way to answer Sonny’s question. Sonny: Please, Brenda, I need to know. Was the child you lost ours? His voice is almost trembling when he asks the question. With some much emotion in his voice she finds it hard to deny him an answer. Brenda: No, Sonny, the baby wasn’t yours. Sonny: Are you sure? Brenda: No, the baby wasn’t developed enough to pinpoint the exact time of conception. It was sometime around the night of the Nurses Ball. Sonny: Then it could have been mine? Brenda: No. Sonny: How can you be sure? Brenda: Because I had to be, I was alone in this Sonny. Nobody knew that we met on that train or that we made love that night. I couldn’t admit to anyone that it might have been your child. Most of all I had to deny it to myself. If it had been our child that I lost I would have had to have faced the fact that one more of our dreams was gone forever. I couldn’t face that alone. Tears start to fall freely from her eyes, and she doesn’t try to stop them. He holds her closer to him and strokes her hair. Sonny: I’m sorry baby, I won’t ask you again. Brenda: You needed to know. Sonny: You know, some times I lie awake at night and try and figure out where we went wrong. I try to figure out if it was when I was first jealous of Miguel, or when I couldn’t trust you after you wore the wire? Maybe it was when I married Lily or when I stayed with her? Brenda: Hey, I contributed my share of mistakes to our relationship. Sonny: Like what? Brenda: Like making you wait after the cave, and wait and wait. Sonny: You know what? It was worth the wait. Get some sleep, sweetheart. Brenda: What are you going to do? Sonny: Don’t worry I’m not going anywhere, I’m going to wait for Luke to show up. Brenda leans on his shoulder and drifts off to sleep. He watches her for a while and then finds that he can’t stay awake either. He leans against her and falls asleep. For the first time in a long time, he sleeps soundly. Chapter 12 Brenda wakes several hours later. The lamp that they lit when they first came in is still burning and moonlight is streaming in through one of the windows. Brenda looks down at Sonny, who is sleeping peacefully. He has his head on her shoulder, she can’t deny that being so close to him affects her. She moves his head off of her and leans it on the arm of the couch. He doesn’t even stir, she wonders when the last time was that he had a good nights sleep. She tries to reach the bag with the bread and cheese in it, without disturbing Sonny. Suddenly she stops and listens to the sounds around her. Along with the sound of Sonny’s breath she swears she hears something else. Brenda: Sonny, I think someone is outside! When she doesn’t get any response she shakes him awake. Sonny is slightly upset at being awaken from a deep sleep. Sonny: Hey, what do you think you’re doing? I was just having this wonderful dream about being handcuffed to a beautiful woman. Oh, it wasn’t a dream? Brenda: I’m serious, I think someone is out there. Sonny: Out where? Brenda: Outside, do you think it could be Luke? Sonny looks at his watch. Sonny: Luke hasn’t had time to get her. He quickly stands up and moves to the window. Brenda stands behind him. Brenda: Then, who do you think it is? Sonny: I don’t know, but I’m not waiting to see if they are friend or foe. He picks up a nearby vase and holds it ready for action. Brenda: Is that the best you can do? Don’t you have a gun or something? Sonny: I had a gun, but I lost it. Brenda: You were practically married to your gun when we were together. Sometimes I felt like you cared more about that gun than you cared about me! How could you loose something that important? Sonny: I lost you didn’t I? Brenda moves around, obviously uncomfortable by his statement. Sonny looks out the window and doesn’t see anything. Sonny: There’s nobody out there. He puts the vase back on a nearby table. Brenda: Are you sure? The last time that we were here you insisted that there wasn’t anybody out there. It turned out that the Tin Man was watching us the whole time. Sonny: I’m sure, there is no movement out there at all. You must have been dreaming. Brenda: Maybe you’re right. I was never very good at this on the run stuff. Sonny: Neither am I. Brenda: So, how did you loose your gun? Sonny: If my memory serves me right, it had something to do with a 300lbs bounty hunter body slamming me into a wall. After that, he asked me politely and I gave him my gun. Brenda: You were serious about the bounty hunter? Sonny: Yes, I was. You said it yourself, even I couldn’t make up a story that wild. Brenda: You promised to be honest with me, right? Sonny: As much as I can. Brenda: Who all is after you, Sonny? Sonny: FBI agents, local authorities, bounty hunters and the usual group of hit men. Brenda: You sure are a popular guy. Sonny: It’s my wit and charm Brenda: How many of those people want you dead? Sonny: I don’t think any of them really want me dead. A few of the hit men might want to kill me, but the reward for my capture is so high that they would probably just turn me over to the authorities. Brenda: How high is the reward? Sonny: I’m not going to tell you, it is high enough that you might turn me in. Brenda: It must be nice to be wanted. Sonny: That depends, it is nicer to be wanted by some people than to be wanted by others. You know what I mean? He flashes her a dimpled smile, which causes her to give him an exasperated look. Brenda: I don’t want you, Sonny! Sonny: Give me some time, I’m just getting started! They hear an undeniable noise from the front porch. Brenda: Did you hear that, or are you going to tell me that I was dreaming again? Sonny: No, I heard it. Get behind me! He picks up the vase again and holds it above his head as the shadow of a person moves across the window shade. Brenda shuts her eyes tight as the door open. Sonny is about to bring the vase down on the head of the intruder, when a hand reaches up and stops him. Luke: Corinthos, what do you think that you are doing? Sonny: *Relieved* The same thing I always do, protecting myself the best way I can. Luke: As usual, your means of protection isn’t what it should be. How did you think you were going to get any leverage with only one hand. Sonny: What choice do I have? He holds up the other hand, with the handcuff binding him to Brenda. Luke: How the h**l did that happen? Sonny: Never mind that, Brenda accidentally got herself caught in them when she was trying to get me out.. Luke: *Laughing hysterically* I see, it was and accident? Brenda: Yes, now can you get us out of these please? I haven’t been able to feel my wrist for about an hour. Luke: Are you sure that you want me to get you out of those? Sonny: Just pick the lock, Spencer! Luke holds the lock up to the little light in the room. Luke: Does the electricity work in this place? I need more light than this. Sonny: I assume that the bill is still being paid automatically, that is the way that I set it up. Brenda: We didn’t want to turn on the lights and attract attention to ourselves. Luke: This whole area is deserted, you couldn’t possibly attract attention. Luke flips on the light and examines the lock. Luke: Just as I thought, this lock can’t be picked. It has been jammed. Brenda: You mean you can’t open the cuffs? Luke: No, I said that I can’t pick the lock. I didn’t say that I can’t open the cuffs. Wait here! Sonny and Brenda exchange puzzled looks as Luke went outside. In a few minutes he came back with a large rock. Brenda: Please tell me that you aren’t thinking of doing what I think you are? Luke doesn’t answer, instead he raises the rock up and uses it to hammer down on the lock of the cuffs. The lock springs open and Luke gives Sonny and Brenda a huge grin. Luke: There you go. Brenda rubs her sore wrist trying to restore circulation. Sonny: Are you all right? Brenda: It hurts. Sonny: Allow me. Sonny picks up her hand and starts to rub her wrist, all the while giving her a very intense look. When she doesn’t protest his touch, he gets bolder. He gives her takes her wrist and moves it up to his lips and procedes to kiss it with slow hot lips. His touch almost sets Brenda’s skin on fire. Sonny can feel the pulse in her wrist quicken. Then she pulls her hand out of his. Brenda: *Slightly out of breath* I’m going to the kitchen to make some tea. She turns on her heel and leaves the room. Sonny follows her out with his eyes. Luke just shakes his head.
