like all good mothers, she accepted it and asked if we had heard from him. I had nothing other than I had heard that he was in LA, Lola didn't believe it either. He hated LA and I knew why. Lola was from LA, that was where he was created. His father was Lola's teacher, she was fifteen when she gave birth to Evan. It was true to say that Evan hated his father and the entire state of California and for him to willingly go there meant that the woman he married on the weekend was something pretty special.
    Of course, I knew of Harmony Roberts. She was a great actress and had a knack for the good girl roles and the romantic films. To see her with Evan was like seeing a giraffe at the North Pole. It just didn't look right. However they did look like they were in love. Or maybe it was lust. Maybe there would be an annulment on the horizon. Maybe I'd be calling Kevin the shark in a few days' time.
    The shark was a great lawyer, he's gotten these idiots out of so many tight spots it wasn't funny. He was definitely a man that was worth his weight in gold. Kevin was on speed dial, labeled shark. Dad thought it was funny and made a point of showing him the next time he was at the clubhouse. Kevin loved it, worse yet, he loved that I was mortified that my father was showing him.
    I looked through the glass window to the boardroom, a meeting going on between my father, Eden and three of the band members. Two were still missing, purportedly somewhere in LA. I had my father's phone in my hands, under his insistence I had to keep trying to contact Evan and Jaxon. But neither of them were responding. So I took a new direction. I sent Jaxon a message from my phone, it was simple. All I asked was that he call me.
    Minutes later my phone rang, lit up with his name. It wasn't surprising, I knew that they probably didn't want to be yelled at.
    “ Hello?”
    “ Hey Kaylee.”
    He sounded drunk. God, it was only ten am in the morning.
    “ Where are you Jaxon?”
    “ We've gone on down to la-la land. Ev's not happy but he's cool. Harmie's making him happy, you know?”
    “ Sure, sure.”
    I looked at the window, Curtis saw me on the phone and frowned pointing at me. Then my father peered through the window, his eyebrows raised and I nodded.
    “ So uh, everyone wants to know what's going on Jaxon. When are you and Evan coming back?”
    My father opened the door and walked across the room with determination.
    “ Well I'm probably going to be out here for a couple of days I suppose.”
    I heard a giggle in the background and it felt like my heart crumbled into a thousand pieces.
    “ Evan's not really sure. Everything is kinda up in the air with Harmie's career, you know?”
    Not really, in fact I have no idea what you're saying.
    “ No.” I sighed loudly, looking at my father who was leaning on the counter. “Dad wants dates Jaxon, give me dates.”
    “ Uh well maybe Wednesday for me and Seph.”
    I cringed hearing her name come from his mouth.
    “ Ev I don't know, you'd have to ask him. I'll get him to call you when I see him, 'k?”
    “ Sure.”
    “ Later Kaylee.”
    He was gone before I could even say goodbye, not that I wanted to.
    “ Wednesday. Doesn't know for Evan. Said he would tell him to call.”
    My father nodded, offering a sympathetic smile.
    “ Go and get a coffee Kaylee, stop thinking about him and find someone better.”
    I nodded and made a hasty dash to the stairs before he continued with his loving yet annoying parental advice.

Chapter Three
     
    Evan didn't call. In fact we didn't hear anything from them until Jaxon rang me at dinner time. Ordinarily phones were banned at the dinner table but on this occasion and others that were of a similar nature, El ignored the fact that we got up and checked to see who it was.
    “ It's Jaxon.” I sighed as I answered it.
    “ Hello Jaxon.”
    “ Hey, has Evan called?”
    “ Nope.”
    Silence, which was odd for Jaxon. He liked to talk.
    “ Everything okay?”
    “ Not really.
