Isabel couldn't believe it.
Not in a million and one years.
Kevin wasn't yelling, with a vein about to pop out of his forehead. Kevin wasn't lecutring..surprise.
She had told him everything that had happened. He wasn't doing anything..just sitting there. Nick and the others were out back fixing up things for a cookout. "Kevin?, She asked almost cautiously.
Kevin ran a hand through his hair, "I'm..just glad you're alright. You did what was right for that guy."
She nodded, "You're..not mad?"
"No..not mad so much as relieved. Did you do any of that stuff?"
"No! I don't do anything.. that bad."
"Okay..good. I think we're gettin' somewhere Isabel."
"What do you mean?"
"This is the first conversation we've had where it doesn't end up in screaming and slamming of doors..," He said smiling.
Isabel laughed, "True."
"Come outside and get something to eat."
"Okay.."
They walked outside and got dinner along with the other guys. Isabel grabbed a burger and some other things and looked around for Nick. He was sitting over on the other side of the deck with his food. Isabel walked over and sat down beside him. "Hi.," She said quietly.
"Hey..you talk to Kevin?"
"Yeah..he was actually pretty cool about it.."
"Good.."
They drifted into silence as each concentrated, or so the other one thought, on their food.
The other guys were watching Isabel and Nick. "Ya know..they would make a very cute couple..," Brian commented.
"Yeah..all that fighting was just repressed romance.," AJ asid.
The other three looked at him weird. "What?! I know these things!," AJ said defensively.
Howie laughed, "Yea right AJ. So when do we leave?"
"Next Wednesday at 6 a.m. to fly to Belguim.," Kevin said.
"Cool..I'll have to remember that I guess."
"Yep..Kev, is Isabel coming with us?"
"Yeah..I figured she could help with Angie or something. Plus, she hasn't been out of the country before and this will be a good opprotunity for her to get some good pictures.."
"Pictures? She takes pictures?," AJ said.
"Yeah..she's got a good album of stuff she's taken pictures of."
"I didn't know she liked photography.."
"Me neither till awhile ago and I found her out here taking pictures of the trees and stuff..and she admitte that she liked photography.."
"Cool."
"Yep."
