Impossible

Abby smiled softly. "I know." she said softly. It was probably one of the hardest things Carter would face is learning to forgive the man that took the most precious thing to him away. Abby smiled as he kissed her head and told her to sleep. She nodded sleepy and closed her eyes. "You sleep too." she said and pressed a kiss to his shoulder and within moment she was asleep. It was so easy around Carter. She sleep easily her mind quieting and for the first time in a very long time she slept without the need to shut everything out for the sound of a single heartbeat soothed her to sleep.

Carter woke rather early the next morning, he'd slept rather peaceful. After what felt like ten minutes he pulled him self from bed. Looking back at Abby's sleeping form he smiled. He was glad she came with him, he didn't know what he would have done had she chose to stay. Getting up he started going through the bags. He knew that Alex's clothes would need to be dealt with. They didn't need extra baggage. Shifting through stuff he set Abby's things aside. Once done he pulled him self something out to wear. Heading into the bathroom, he quickly changed.

Harper sighed as she palled herself from the bed. She knew they needed to keep moving, but she just wanted to go back and crawl into her bed at Logan's house. She knew it was selfish of her, but the reason they were running now wasn't because of her. She knew if she was caught Logan would take care of her. She only stayed for her brother. She'd missed him so much, but their lives were different now. He had Abby, and didn't need the extra weight dragging him down. But she couldn't work up the courage to go back. She knew as much as she wanted to deny it her brother did really need her. Pulling on the clothes from the day before she headed to the door ready to start the day.

Abby woke to the sound of knocking on the door. She sighed and got up shuffling to the door. She reached for the knob and opened it frowning. "Mmm already?" she asked and smiled letting Harper in before heading to her bags. She didn't think anything else she had would really fit Harper so she pulled out her own cloths for the day and smiled as Carter came out. "Morning." she said softly and then slipped into the bathroom he had left. She closed the door dressing and cleaning up until she looked mostly awake before coming out and helping them all pack. "Alright what is the plan to today?" she asked and put her hands in her back pockets. Abby looked over at Harper and saw it had been a hard night for her and she understood why but knew of no way to help her.

{just in case you didn't see it :) Hope it is all going well hun!}

@ Jinx...
Hearing a knock at the door Carter exited the bathroom, his clothes in his arms. "Morning." He greeted his sister, before packing away his clothes. "You guys ready?" He asked. "I figured that we can grab a quick bite to eat and then you can go and get some clothes." He told Harper knowing they'd have to steal most of what they needed. It was something he didn't want to get Abby into but it was the only way to keep her safe. He grabbed his bag and Abby's before heading out the door, not giving them really any chance to answer.

Harper looked at her brother as he exited the bathroom, offering him a soft smile. She really wasn't feeling up to doing much to today. After feeling like she'd been kicked in the gut she was just looking forward to the day when they didn't have to move so much. She knew she'd never have a peaceful life. After leaving Logan she knew she'd be on the run the rest of her life. It was just the facts, her kind wasn't excepted in society so if anyone noticed her or their abilities then it was moving again. She sighed as she followed after her brother. She sighed as they walked through town, before finding a fast food restaurant. She knew that once they were done eating she'd be sent off to find something she could wear.

(Sorry didn't see it)

{its all good I posted in the other one too.}

Once they left the hotel she got into the car taking the front seat. She loved Harper and Carter but they needed a break from each other right now. Neither of them seemed to understand the other right now. They got some food and she frowned. She couldn't wait till they settled down at least a little and she could make them something less greasy. Once they finished eating they headed out to find Harper some cloths. She was guessing that they where not going to spend the press cash they had on a new wardrobe for Harper. She bit her lip gently as they drove down the rode. "I don't know how you normally do this." she said and ran her hand through her hair. "But I want to help so just let me know what I need to do." she said softly and smiled gently at Carter.

@ Jinx...
Lifting her eyes she noticed a store close by it would give her a chance to get what she needed, plus allow her some time away from the others. "Why don't we split up, I'll get me some clothes, while you guys get some food yeah?" She offered, not giving either a chances to response she was out of the car and walking off towards the store. Upon entering she grabbed a small basket, before she started wandering around the store. Picking up backpack she wandered around dropping small things into the basket. Then headed to the clothing selections. Browsing over what they had, she kept her guard up but kept on like she was just looking. Every so often placing something into the bag. Once she got everything she needed she walked back towards the front of the store. Noticing no one was around the front she just walked out the door. It seemed like the small store didn't have enough employees to cover theft well. Heading back to the car she slipped into the back seat, shaking her head it was as if she'd never even left the car.

---

Carter watched as Harper left the car, then turned to look at Abby. "I know you want to help, but right now we need to do this fast. So the best thing for you to do is just wait right here." He told her before getting out of the car. Then heading into the store. As he moved along the store picked up small things and stuff to snack on. It wasn't much but it would be enough for them to not have to stop for food. Grabbing a case of water he headed to the front, smiling at the woman at the register. Paying for the water he left the store, making it back into the car before Harper. He looked over at Abby. "Thirsty?" He questioned her, placing the water down in the back seat. Then started cleaning out his pockets, once done settling down in the driver seat. He'd managed to get them some crackers, beef jerky and pretzels.

Once Harper was in the car he started driving. With one place in mind, it was a place him and Harper had stayed at briefly when she was a kid. But since he couldn't get work they left. But now that they were older it wouldn't be hard for them to support themselves. As he drove he could hear the girls chatting idly. But they left him out, he was thankful for that. He just didn't know if he could deal with talking to his sister right now. After everything that had happened in the past few months, it wasn't worth pushing her away for. But he had to learn to be understanding of her feelings. Looking in rear view mirror he noticed she'd dosed off. A soft smile pulling at his lips, before he peered over at Abby. She didn't seem like she was far from sleep herself. Chuckling softly to himself, he just drove on.

After a few hours he pulled on to a rickety road, he could tell it had been years since someone had been down it. The drive was a short one, but rather rough. Pulling to a stop, he threw a look over at Abby, surprised she was still asleep. "Hey." He shook her gently, wanting to wake her up first. "We've arrived." He knew that the place would need a good cleaning, plus they'd need to get their hands on things they'd need.

Abby woke as Carter shook her gently. She had fallen asleep after fake sleeping for a while earlier. She had been feeling pretty down being unable to help anyone. She was use to helping others not being told she wasn't able to do something. Abby blinked and rubbed her eyes before looking around. "Is this the place you had been talking about?" she asked softly. When they had talked about settling down over the past week he said he had a place in mind, somewhere he had been before. Abby wondered if here she would be able to fit in more. Abby could see the potential but it was going to be a lot of work. She bit her lip gently. "Can we go inside?" she asked curiously. She wanted to look around and begin a list of what needed to be done. Abby grinned as she sat up and ran her hand through her hair. Carter looked tired. She hoped there was a good place for him to crash now. Abby turned in the car and shook Harper. "Wake up sleepy." she teased and then one Carter gave the go ahead popped out of the car stretching and bouncing. She wanted to take a run around the house just to look around and stretch out but didn't know if he would be alright with it. Abby wondered how much they would be able to be themselves here. That was part of the reason she had left with Carter right? To not have to hide all the time.

@ Jinx...
Carter shrugged his shoulders as she questioned if they could go in or not. He didn't know if anyone had looked after the place or not. When they were younger a man who owned the house had let them stay there as long as they didn't tear any thing up. He knew they couldn't be normal kids if they were here, but he didn't question them or offer them any help. Not that they could really ask for more. Carter wondered if he was even still alive. If so he'd have to do something to repay his kindness. But now wasn't the time to worry about it. He just hoped he hadn't gotten them all the way out here for a house that was falling down. He threw a frown at Abby as she woke Harper not wanting to deal with his sister just yet. He shrugged it off as he stepped out of the car. "You coming?" He asked the two. Before throwing a look back at his sister seeing her dosing back off. He wondered if she even got any sleep last night. Though he didn't push it as he closed the door and headed up to the house. The place looked sound but he was hoping that it was still livable. Opening the door he blinked in surprise. The place was rather clean, like someone knew they were coming he stepped into the place. One the table sat a letter. Moving over he picked it up before opening it and reading it. Knew you couldn't stay away. A soft chuckle leaving his lips. "I'll be damned." He shook his head, the old man was still a live. But he wondered how he knew they'd be back. Smiling he looked over at Abby. "Welcome home?" He questioned her, scratching the back off his head. Not expecting this. He knew now he'd need to pay the man a visit, he had quite a few question to ask.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
Abby nodded letting Harper sleep more. She got out and followed him in. She was worried about Harper and Carter's relationship but for now she was going to just enjoy the place they where at. She looked around able to name off in her head the useful herbs in the wild garden. It looked like most of them where. It looked wild but it was controlled chaos. Abby walked with Carter up to the house. It was old but a few curtains and some chairs and a little love this place would be amazing. Abby walked inside inside and looked around as Carter read a note. She smiled over at him and nodded. "Welcome home Carter." she said and walked over to him and hugged him. "I'm gonna look around!" she said excitedly before pecking his cheek and running off. Abby looked around the little place. There where two rooms, a smaller one off the kitchen and a larger room in the back leading to the back yard. Abby smiled and opened the doors that slid open easily. She looked around thinking of little things they could do to make this place homely. She knew they couldn't buy anything but she could make things. Abby bit her lip standing there in the soft breeze and looked over as Carter walked in. "So what's the story here?" she asked softly grinning softly at him.

@ Jinx...
Carter smiled as she wandered around checking out the place, his mind however was over taken by old memories. Looking at the floor where Harper had curled into a ball and balled her eyes out. It was her first time away from their parents. She had worked her self up so much that she'd cracked the flooring and put a small hole in the wall. Though he'd managed to fix before they left. But he could still see the terrible job he'd done on it. The spackle was clotted instead of smooth. Shaking his head he lifted his eyes to Abby as she entered the room. "It was the first house Harper and I ever had." He told her knowing she knew enough to know he was speaking about after his parents were killed. After all they weren't that far from where they'd been born. He frowned knowing that Harper was already dealing with enough, to have to deal with all the old memories here. He wondered if it was a smart idea to come back, he just hoped that what ever was going on inside her big brain that it wasn't going to kill her. He couldn't handle it if she became suicidal. He'd send her back to Logan before he ever allowed her to kill herself. He'd pick up the phone and call the man himself. Though his hate for the man ran deep that didn't mean he wouldn't put it aside to save her.

Abby nodded and moved over to him. She bit her lip and stepped over to him leaning her shoulder against him looking up at him. "You're really worried about her." she said softly and then moved so she could wrap her arms around his waist. She leaned into his side. "She's going to be okay." Abby said softly. She knew Carter well enough to know if he and his sister were at all alike that she would pull through in one way or another. Abby leaned up and placed a kiss on his cheek. "Seriously though this is all going to work out." she said. She knew she sounded naive but the truth is Abby truly believed it would work out, even if it was hard and scary along the way they had each other and could figure it out from there. Abby looked up at him and bit her lip gently. She wanted to get to know this man more but she knew he had so much going on right now the last thing on his mind was anything other than the safety of her and his sister.

@ Jinx...
Carter smiled down at her, he knew that no matter what he said she understood him. He didn't have to give her all the gory details, she just trusted his words and it made him glad she was here. "I am, I hate seeing her like this and knowing I'm partly to blame eats me up." He sighed, before wrapping his arms around her. His head falling on her shoulder as he relaxed needing this right now. He felt her lips on his cheek and he couldn't help the sly smile that appeared, feeling his cheek warm up at the sensations. He'd never been this transparent before to someone. She was bewitching him and he was loosing all his power to her gladly. Standing up her looked down at her, before giving her a soft smile. "Thank you." He whispered out, then leaned down gently taking her lips.

Harper felt like she was burning alive. Her eyes flashed opened and she looked around noticing she was alone in the car. She frown wondering why no one woke her. Sighing out she pulled herself from the musty car, stretching out her soar muscles. She'd be glad to sleep in a bed after that long car ride. Stumbling up the walk way, she blinked trying to keep her eyes open. But she knew last night she hadn't gotten much sleep and her body was begging for more. But she needed to find a patch of floor to curl up on if all else failed. Pushing open the door she froze noticing her brother and Abby kissing. "My bad." She mumbled out as they broke apart. She could tell both of them were blushing like crazy. But she didn't care much all she wanted was to sleep. She mumbled something to them but didn't know what she was trying to say. Though her feet had a mind of their own, leading her to the small room just off of the kitchen. She didn't bother undressing as she collapsed down on the bed.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
Abby nodded softly. She couldn't tell him not to worry he always would and she couldn't tell him how to fix it with Carter she didn't know how to do that for them but she could support Carter and listen to him. He held her to him and leaned his head down on her shoulder. She rubbed her finger tips over his back soothingly. She watched his cheeks color at the kiss on his cheek. He looked down at her making her blush and feel small in his arms. She nodded softly as he thanked her about to say more when his lips met hers gently at first. The heat built up in her gut and she clung to his shirt kissing him deeper. There was just something about when their lips met that drove her over the edge. Abby leaned into him her hands and mind ready to take more action when the front door opened. Abby pulled back from Carter turning the darkest red she had ever had looking at Harper. Abby should have woke her sooner. Once Harper shuffled into the smaller room Abby stepped back again pulling on the end of her bourbon locks nervously. "I should go check on her." Abby said and slipped out of the room and into Harper's seeing her passed out. Abby blushed and moved to her helping take off her shoes and get her under the clean covers. They really did need to thank the person who had kept the house clean for them. It was a gift she hoped to repay one day. Abby tucked Carter in and tucked her hair behind her ear. Abby sighed and then slipped quietly out of her room coming back out to the kitchen. Abby felt bad that in Harper's time of morning that Abby was falling in love with her brother but then again she also was excited to be having these moments with Carter and no one could blame her for that.

@ Jinx...
Carter nodded as she suggested she check on his sister. He knew that it was a smart move for them, as he knew he needed to get a handle on his embarrassment. Stepping out side he head to the car and started to unload the luggage taking all of it and placing it on the porch. Then once the car was clean out he started to take it all in side. He smiled as he noticed Abby in the kitchen in her own little world. He could feel the pull to her that made his heart skip a beat when she smiled at him. But he knew this wasn't a retreat where they got to relax and enjoy their time together. Here they were going to have to work harder and train themselves for what ever was to come. This place was a safe haven, but it might not be for to long. And the needed to use the time they had preparing for a fight. And if all he could leave Abby with was the ability to protect herself then he'd be happy he'd kept his part of the deal. He knew he was thinking of the worst case but it was always part of his planning. He couldn't help it it was just how his brain worked. Though he knew she had a gift but he wonder just how well she knew how to use it. Shaking his thoughts he dropped down onto the old beaten up couch glad he'd finished bringing everything in. They all would need a chance to rest and get back on to their feet. Then they'd really get to work and he'd planned on training her hard.

Once Harper was out cold Abby came out and smiled at Carter. "She's sleeping." she said softly and came over sitting in front of the couch laying her head back against his side. "What do we do now?" she asked her stomach growling. Abby blushed softly. They had been surviving off snack food for a while now and she was hoping that they would have the opportunity to make some really food now. Abby closed her eyes smiling softly. She liked that it was so easy to be around Carter. His presence was soothing to her unlike anything she had ever felt before. Abby wondered how this was all going to work. She was worried about it actually and that she would screw it up.

@ Jinx...
Carter smiled at Abby as she rested down next to him, he gentle started to rub her side. "Thank you for taking care of her." He told her, looking down at her. He sat there for a minute before she question him on what they do now. "Now we get to relax, and build up a life here." He rubbed the back of his neck feeling a bit of stress there. "I wonder how much money we have left." He said out loud. "If we have enough we might be able to go and buy a bit of groceries." He knew stealing was the best way to get what they needed, but now that they were settled they needed to keep eyes off of them meaning unless they absolutely needed it they weren't to steal. They'd have to go to a different town to do that, and it'd been a while for him in this area so he'd have wander around a bit to get his barring back.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
Abby nodded and smiled softly. "Okay sounds good." She said and pulled her purse to her taking a look inside. "Three hundred left." she said and bit her lip. "Is that going to be enough?" she asked him looking up at him. "Is your neck stiff? Here let me help you." she said and scooted him over on the couch so that she was sitting behind him. She ran her hands up his back and and then to his shoulders rubbing the kinks out of his shoulders and neck. "You're to stressed out about this. It will work out." she said softly and grinned softly as she kept rubbing his back.

@ Jinx...
Carter started to protest but before he could get the words out her hands were on his neck. The moan that left his lips was involuntary. Dipping his head down her allowed her full access to his neck. "I know I shouldn't worry but I can't help it." He told her knowing that he was the one that was going to support them, she couldn't be left alone and Harper only ever had the job at the bar. This place was to small for there to be many job availability. But he would figure it out. "You want to go into town and buy something for dinner?" He questioned her, Harper would be okay by herself after all she could protect herself very well, he'd made sure of that.

@ Bongs Before Bibles
Abby smiled as he gave into letting her rub out the stress. She grinned loving that he gave into it working her hands over his back and neck. "I know." Abby said softly. "That is who you are. You're the man with the plan and winging it is not easy." she said and then hugged his back as he spoke again resting her chin on his shoulder. She grinned. "Yeah I would love to." she said feeling like she could really be useful now. "Is it really okay we are here?" she asked him. This house had all the basic furniture and linens. It was huge. She was expecting there to be nothing inside. Abby stood bouncing to her feet and held her hand out for his. Abby knew all this was serious but she still felt a bit like she runaway with him like a high school girl does with her secrete lover.
