"She doesn't like what it does to her, I think," Harper said with a shrug. "Again, something you'll have to ask her yourself."

"Thanks for making Kasey sound so mysterious Harper." Liam sighed and placed his empty glass in the sink.

"What can I say? She doesn't share every detail of her life with me," Harper shrugged again as he took a drink of his water.

"I know I know. Sorry." Liam sighed and rested his elbows on the countertop.

"Hey, it's no big deal. She's an adult, and, much as it pains me to say it, she can handle herself. She doesn't need me to know every little thing about her," Harper said with half a smile, moving to put his glass in the sink.

"True true," He sighed and ran a hand through his hair, "When's the doctor getting here again?"

"Should be…" Harper checked his watch. "About five minutes. I just hope that either Kasey sleeps through this whole thing, or Madi brings something to make her sleep through it."

"Hopefully. I just want Kasey to get better already," He sighed a little, "We were supposed to go out on a date the other day. Looks like that's not going to happen for a while."

Harper blinked and nodded slowly.

"Maybe you guys could go to the spa together," he joked with a smirk.

Liam shook his head with a smile, “Maybe not. I don’t think her personal bounderies go that far.”

"As long as you're fully clothed, she might enjoy it," Harper said with a shrug.

“Still, I don’t think it’s a good idea for me to go, if she goes.” Liam sighed a little.

"Why not?" Harper asked curiously, leaning against the counter.

Liam sighed, “After what happened last time when I pushed her boundaries… I don’t want to accidentlly overstep again. Maybe I, being too cautious but I don’t want to hurt her again.”

Harper nodded slowly, looking off in thought.

"Well… You could always ask her," he suggested with a shrug.

"Maybe, but I don't want her to feel pressured into bringing me." Liam replied with a small sigh.

"If you don't pressure her, she won't feel pressured," Harper pointed out. He chuckled a bit, then added, "Unless you're just trying to get out of going to the spa."

"What? No, 'course not…" Liam let out a small nervous laugh and then swallowed.

"I was teasing you about the while spa thing, anyway," Harper said, shaking his head with a smile.

"Hm, yeah…" Liam tapped his fingers on the countertop to some random tune, "How long until Madi gets here?"

"She should be here any minute, now–"

As soon as the words had left Harper's mouth, there was a knock on the door. Pushing himself off the counter, he hurried over to the door and swung it open.

"Thank goodness you're finally here," he sighed, grabbing her hand and pulling her inside. He shut the door and tugged her towards Kasey's room, but she dig her heels into the floor.

"Woah woah woah. Back it up. One: Hey, how's it going? I missed you. Two: Who's this?" the young doctor asked, gesturing to Liam.

“Hiya, I’m Liam… Kasey’s boyfriend.” He gave the Doctor a small smile and ran a hand through his hair.

Doctor Willows smiled at Liam.

"It's nice to meet you, though I wish it were under better circumstances. I'm Doctor Madeline Willows, but you can just call me Madi," she introduced herself, stepping around Harper to stick her hand out.

Liam shook her hand, “Nice to meet you, too. Thank-you for coming at such short notice.”

"I'm always available to help the Taylors," Madeline said with a smile. Harper cleared his throat behind her, and she rolled her eyes as she turned around. "I know, I know. I'm coming."
