Dean:"Right, you ready?" I ask Lola giving her a pointed look.

If this works then I'll get into Sophie's room and see her. If it doesn't, Lola won't be able to stall Liam and I won't get up the stairs or even in the house. I need her to keep him out of the way as much as I can so I can see her. I'll do whatever she wants, I don't care what that is, if she doesn't want me there I'll go but if she wants me to stay, well, I'm not gonna leave her.

I don't know if I want to go in here or not. I don't want to see how bad a state she's in but she's Sophie and I want to see her. Of course I'm gonna want to see her. I just don't think I'm ready to see what i'm bound to see as soon as I walk in here.

Reaching out, I slowly turn the handle on the door, pushing it open so I can step in.
