Allie was in her meeting with the Defence lawyer when her pager went off, she saw it was Nick's cell and saved it, reminding herself to call as soon as she finished up.

"Caroline what am I going to do, since the day I met Allie I have been under her spell, not a day has gone by that I dont picture our wedding day, god Caroline she is my life, my shining light, she is..well she is my everything." Howie was getting dressed as he talked to his sister. He hoped that she would send him so sisterly advice like she always did. He caught a glance of his appointment book and saw that he had a fitting with Sara at Armani for his tuxedo that he would be wearing the following evening to the music awards. "Shit I dont have a date." He picke dup the phone and called his sister Pollyanna.

"Chia don't make excuses for her, she obviosly got what she wanted out of Howie and now she threw him aside....story of our lives, we get used and thrown away." AJ said angrily.
"You know what AJ you are a prick, this is my sister you are talking about, my god you haven't even heard her side of the story..." Chia's face was on fire as she shouted at AJ. "Chia calm down....dammit Howie is my best friend and I am going to protect him."
"Well Allie is my twin sister and I will fight to the death to protect her." They both stopped and realised that they were fighting about another couple. AJ spoke first.."Monkey promise me that we aren't going to let Howie and Chia's problems come between us."
"AJ I promise, I can't afford to lose you too, but right now my priority has to be with my sister, I am going to call her and see what's up...I love you."
"Monkey I love you too." AJ left for his fitting.

Allie was in her car on her way to the cemetary when her phone rang
"Allie cat, it's Chia, what the hell is going on?"
"Chia, what are you talking about?"
"Nick just told us you broke up with Howie, are you crazy?"
"How did you talk to Nick, Chia where are you?"
"First things first, why didn't you tell me that you guys were having problems, I am your sister for christ sake"
"Chia watch your mouth, you wouldnt understand, Howie was my first serious boyfriend and I was confused and scared with all the feelings, I thought it best that we split up before the feelings got to deep."
"Allie, his feelings are already really deep, he has been in bed all day, god Allie you confuse me, you dream of meeting this wonderful guy, you do, and then you turn him away..I give up."
"Chia don't scold me, I need your support...now why aren't you at work?"
"I lost my job Allie, I couldn't cope being away from AJ and from you, I miss momma and daddy like mad...Allie I am so lost"
"Chia come home, we need to get through this together, you can take soem time off and get your head straight, once you figure out who you are then you can get your job back..."
"Allie I am coming home, but I need to spend some time with AJ first..."
"Okay Chia, if you need me you call....I guess I will see you tomorrow night though..."
"What are you talking about?" Chia asked
"Well I know you are coming with AJ and the guys to New York for the MTV Awards, well Drew asked me to go and so I am meeting him down there as well."
"Drew,as in Drew from 98*, Allie are you mad, my god you are going to kill Howie, you know how jealous he was of you and Drew...Allie I think you had better rethink that invitation over."
"Chia we are going as friends, my god I am allowed to have male friends you know...I will see you there.."
"I love you Allie Cat..."
"Chia Pet I love you too"
Allie hung up and got out of the car and walked to her parent's grave. She knew it was time to have a heart to heart with her parents.
"Hi Momma, hi daddy, I miss you guys more every day, it is days like this that I miss your chocolate sundae's momma, and your jokes daddy. I know you guys are watching out for us so I knwo that you know what I have done, I think I made the right decision but I am really doubting myself..Chia really needs you both and I hope she is talking to you every day cuz you always pointed us in the right decision. I hope Max is keeping you in shape Daddy..I miss you all terribly, the water is perfect for white water rafting, I am planning to do it this fall, I wish you were here to teach me though" Allie said to her brother. Her cell went off and she saw Nick's number
"Hi Nicky, I am spending some time with my family right now, can I call you back"
"I am getting fitted for my tux right now, so I am not going anywhere." Nick joked.
"Thanks Nicky"
Allie brushed off her skirt and stood up,she laid a snickers bar on the
grass covering her parents and brother's graves. " daddy I brought you
your
favourite candy bar, momma here are your weekly bouquet of daisies and
then
she laid a dog bone and a sporting magazine for her brother and Max.
She
turned and walked away whispering I LOVE YOU as she walked away.
