Melissa's pov:

I feel my brother's left hand  on my left cheek the backs of his fingers just under my eye slowly caressing my cheek untl he reached the middle. He gave me a slight smile as I also smiled back at him. It was then I heard him speak.

"What's wrong Mel?" My brother whispered so only I heard.

"It's just that this movie is opening old wounds. I mean I love Lisa to death, but this movie brings up old feelings about when my ex dumped me. It was more the way he dumped me than the fact that he actually dumped me, though." I Whispered back with a slight wavering voice hoping Lisa hadn't heard.

William's POV:

Jarrod motions us to go, without changing clothes, I see it both, as something uncomfortable and as an opportunity (uncomfortable because I feel underdressed and an opportunity to have my thighs jiggled by Anna in a public setting). I open the door for Camilla and Anna, then I go around the car to get in the driver's seat. As soon as I sit and start driving, my mind goes wandering to the previous significative event from last evening and this morning, first, Camilla letting me know she doesn't feel self conscious when Jarrod jiggles her well shaped, defined thighs and her muscular calves, then Jarrod allowing Camilla to jiggle his thighs in public, even getting aroused, more still, daring to have sex in a public bathroom, who would have though such a serious, talented musician would do that, then, and most surprising of all (not that the rest wasn't shocking) Camilla allowing her tears to fall unchecked down her silky cheek in front of many people, even allowing Jarrod to wipe and kiss them for her.

 I drop my hand on Anna's thigh, enjoying how it jiggles in my hand, my mind thinking how to test myself in the recently learned situations, I know I have to overcome them, unashamed and even enjoying.

I get abruptly out of my thought by a slap sound, I look in the rearview mirror, I see Camilla's upper thigh briefly jiggle against Jarrod's hand, I force myself to look to the front, I wouldn't want an accident. After only a couple more minutes we arrive to the mall. I get out, open the door for Anna, Jarrod is still getting out (I wonder what these guys have in mind), I feel a bit aroused seeing Anna's calves jiggling briefly as she steps out of the car, I hold her by her waist and walk inside the mall that way.

Robyn's POV

'Have a lovely time you two' Susan said to me and Marie at the airport. She gave us both a hug as tears streamed down her face

'We will' I promised my eyes filling with tears

In just a few short hours I would be seeing Caitlin again and for a lot longer than just a day. Me and Marie grabbed a drink and a snack as we waited for our flight to London to be called.

'Rachel's going to meet you at Heathrow to take you to King's Cross.' I told her. My best friend had previously said she had gotten confused the last time and nearly missed her train to Paris

My thoughtfulness caused tears to run down Marie's cheeks

'A few of the girls in my class tell me I have to change to get a boyfriend' she told me, her unwiped tears glistening on her face. 'I tell them I didn't have to change for you, so I shouldn't need to change to get a boyfriend'

'Good for you' I told her, tears streaming down my face. We wiped our tears away and got ready to catch our flight

Anna's pov:

Jarrod encourages us to just go to the mall dressed as we are saying we look fine. I'm not sure if William will go with it as he usually dresses a bit more to go out but he suprises me saying he's ready. William opens the car door for Camilla and I before getting in the drivers seat.

After a few quiet moments driving to the mall I feel William drop his hand on my thigh. Shortly thereafter we arrive at the mall. Being the gentleman he is he insisted on opening the door for me. He then delicately wraps his arm around my waist as we walk into the mall.

As soon as we get inside the mall both Jarrod and Camilla excuse themselves to the bathroom. I tell them we'll meet them st the maternity boutique on the second floor.

Melissa's pov:

After I tell my brother why I'm upset he gives my hand a reassuring squeeze. I know he is subtlely telling me he's "got me" that I can feel free to let my emotions out. I slowly close my eyes as his fingers reach just under my eye sending a thick, hot tear rolling down my cheek. He then releases both my hand as well as my cheek just as another thick, hot tear replaces the first one and starts rolling down my cheek following the same path as the previous one. I then feel my brother lean in and kiss my still falling tear as well as its streak.

At this point I could feel Lisa lifting her head from my shoulder. I shyly turned my head so I could see her face. She was wiping her left cheek with the finger pads of her left hand blushing slightly.

"Sorry." I whispered blushing. I figured it was my tears on her cheek she was wiping seeing as how her eyes were still dry.

"It's ok really." Lisa began slowly blushing. "I just hope you're ok, love. I've never seen you cry like this (or much really at all)." She finished looking me deep into my eyes with a concerned look on her face.

Taking a deep shaky, nervous breath I begin telling her "It's nothing really, it's just that...this movie reminded me of the nasty way my ex dumped me and it kind of brought all those feelings back. I mean its not like I still care about him as I love you with all my heart. It just reminded me of how painful that time in my life was." I finished hoping I hadn't scared Lisa away.
