Chapter 11 - Moving On

"So are you going to talk to me about this dream of yours?" Tayte asked, I looked at him,

"I already told you, you, Noah and Arii were dead around me"

"But there's something else and I know there is" I stood up and walked over to the balcony's edge, "Keane..."

"It was Cylan, he said that I may have killed him, but he has men everywhere and they're going to hunt us down and kill me. He said the intelligence agencies aren't the only ones after us. That I can't keep my family safe forever and then 3 shots rang out and you were all dead"

"He's dead though Keane, you know that"

"I know he's dead and I know it's crazy but shit Tayte...it felt so real and seeing you led there"

"We aren't going anywhere anytime soon. I'm sorry I said he was dead. I know you're not crazy and the fact the suits knew about this dream means that obviously something is going on that connects them. I've lost count of the amount of times we've all told you this, but if you have to still hide things, hide it from everyone except me"

"You've got me?" I asked,

"I've always got you" He answered.

It was 8.30pm, Harvey and Donna had gone out for a business dinner, Tayte and I were crashed out on the king sized bed.

"What happens if I have a secret brain haemorrhage?"

"Noah we've been over this" Angelo's voice said, we both got up, I ignored my crutches strewn on the floor,

"But my head hurts, you can see the lump"

"There is no lump Noah" Arii said,

"What's going on?" I asked,

"My brains broken...again" Noah groaned, falling into me, I grabbed him and Tayte steadied me so I didn't fall,

"Angelo, what happened?" I said,

"Noah hit his head getting out of the taxi"

"You are such a klutz"

"Hey, the taxi ceiling got lower. I think I'm concussed" he ran and flopped on the bed, "Where's Harvey?"

"They've gone out for a business dinner" Tayte answered,

"Keane are you okay?"

"Wave of pain" I slid and leant against the wall,

"You haven't had any pain relief today"

"Yeah, that's because...I'll get addicted"

"Keane, we only said that because we care" Noah said,

"Yeah, yeah whatever...shoot me up before I get angry"

"You angry...now that's something we don't see" Arii teased laughing.

We headed down, well; we all shut up shop in the room. Angelo and Noah were sharing the single bed and Tayte, Arii and I were in the King sized.

"Are we heading off tomorrow?" Arii asked,

"Yeah, tomorrow evening, after we've had a last chat with Harvey and Donna" I said, lying down on the bed,

"We're going to South Africa next right?" Noah asked,

"Yep" I mumbled,

"Are you sick and tired of answering our questions?" Noah then said,

"Yep" I muttered, the pain was slowly subsiding, "I'm going to sleep"

"You're going to sleep in your clothes led on top of the bed" Arii said,

"Well...I could go and sleep out on the balcony...actually, that seems like a good idea" I said, getting up,

"No, no, no" Tayte said, pushing me back down,

"Why not? I like the view"

"I don't want de ja vu of what happened the last time you slept on a balcony"

"Fine..." I pulled my t-shirt and trousers off, along with my boot and got into the bed, "Night" I rolled over onto my stomach, wrapped my arms under the pillow and shut my eyes,

"Night" They all said,

"I'm not tired, can we do something?" Noah said, "Shall I sing to you all"

"No" I groaned, everyone laughed.
