It was then that Milo understood, her friends. Knowing now what had happened
with Brady and Claire he saw just how deep a betrayal it was. He didn't wish
to unload that on Mari, perhaps never. So he just let her rest, he sat there
next to her watching her rest like an guardian angel.


Reese remembered how Brady had come in and brought others in with him and
she fought to wake up. He was zombied out but she still didn't know what had
happened to him.

Or Claire.

Where were they? Surely they would have come in here by now like everyone
else...?

Reese made a sound of distress deep in her throat and forced her eyes open.

Rose headed back to the House, car loaded with what would be needed.

"Have you eaten yet? You or your friend?" Rose asked, remembering that Julia
had said they might need to stop off for odds and ends, including dinner if
they hadn't had a chance to eat yet.

Julia was thinking of Reese's high metabolism, whereas Rose was just
thinking of making sure there wasn't anything else they had to get.
