[Will Wright]

"Yeah....you could be right," Will gazed down at her hands. She had been rubbing them together subconcioulsy...a habit of hers when she was nervous.
"I hope you're right," she said again.
Oh, what am I going to do....sit down and talk about over dinner with them? I hope not...that's worse than....it's just worse! what she had been about to think did not bode well, after her what her godparents were like after what she had done a few years back...well she doubted they would go easy on her.

[Kira & Lee Norris]

"I'm right," a soothing note creeping into her voice. "Of course I'm right."
Of course she was. She had to be. How else could she comfort Will? Why did she look so doubtful? Why did she have to hope? Hope wasn't good enough.
Will had to be certain.
And Kira wanted to help her be certain... except... she didn't know Will's godparents. She didn't know anything; not even enough to make the vaguest of assumptions.
But maybe she could play pretend.
So of course she was right. Kira was always, always right.
"Especially about Jack." She turned to her friend, biting her lip. "Will, he's got a girlfriend."

[Will Wright]

Will let those words sink in hoping that they might help her with her thoughts.
He has a girlfriend, has a girlfriend, a girlfriend, girlfriend...
Will looked up to see Kira biting her lip.
Girlfriend....
Girlfriend...
"I know that," what was this new emotion she was feeling?
Resentment?
Jealousy?
Envy?
All had the same meaning to them, or came very close to it.
But why would Will show resentment towards Olivia? Of all people. True, Will never really liked her but that didn't mean she should resent of envy her. Will respected her as a Carer. She was the one who had saved her life...along with Nurse Gornray and Paul and countless others.
Still, it didn't make sense to Will at all.
Why should I resent or envy or be jealous of Olivia?
Oh, I don't know maybe cause' she's got one of the hottest guys in the school who you fancy and like as a friend but want it to be more...
Shut up conscience!
I will, once you start making sense of things.
She got up and paced in front of her bed a bit before sitting down on the window sill.
She took a deep breath and let it out again, "I know that but....I can't help but feeling this way and even though I've told myself that many of times before...I still can't surpress it,"
She turned to give her friend a pleading look.
Help me Kira...please? You've got too,

[Kira & Lee Norris]

"I'm not saying that," Kira said quickly. "I just mean... you can't... I don't know, act on it, or whatever. Jack and Olivia seem pretty casual... but I don't know... he's never lasted in a relationship this long before. Will, I think they really like each other."
She was under the dim impression that this really, really wasn't working. What was she doing? Listing off the things Will already knew that ultimately wouldn't help her.
The problem was... Kira could sit and talk all she liked, but Will had to be the one to sort this out in the end.
"Maybe you need a distraction," Kira said finally. "Jack's not the only guy out there. Or maybe... maybe just this Easter break... use it to unwind... or... or..."
How likely was it that any of this would work?
It wasn't like something one of Will's Carers could fix. Who could get inside the mind and alter- ?
Whoa.
Now there was an idea.

[Will Wright]

Unwind.
Now that was a brilliant idea! Use this easter break to cool down, unwind, just...relax.
Pfft, as if! Will knew that was a long, long stretch. How could she unwind when her godparents were probably going to stop her from coming back to this wonderful place or at least threaten her if she didn't.
Stop thinking like that! For god's sake just wise up! Kira's right...it was true...Jack never had a long relationship like this before and they do seem very serious, so just get over it!
It had started to rain again, though sun was up and spreading a full arch of colours...a rainbow.
Oddly enough rainbows always soothed Will when she was stressed out. Not today. She was anxious enough about going home, why was she adding to that by stressing out about Jack. After all it was just a crush?
Right?
Right.
Will's irrational side was trying its best to rear its ugly head again and override her responsible. But it had already lost the battle. Will clamped down on it.
"I vill try, but I can not guarantee anything," she said after what seemed hours of silence. Her thoughts were starting to kill her. Ok, maybe kill was a bit of an overstatement. But they were driving her more mental than usual.
