Scott took a menu and ordered himself a BBQ Chicken Sandwich with fries and a tonic water. As Sara placed her order and the waitress left them Scott looked at the bartender and then at Sara and said, [B]"I think you're right. I'm a bit rusty how I didn't see that I have no clue."[/B]

As he finished his first drink Kelly then realized something. He looked at Sara and said was very serious, [B]"There are only 8 people on the planet who know about this project prior to this incarnation. 5 of them are on the committee, 2 are dead and 1 who's name has been left out of all the records."[/B]

Scott closed his eyes to take in the moment. There was so much he wanted to ask so much to say it was coming in waves to him but all he could do was open his eyes and say,[B] "I'm not gonna ask you for details about what happened or what went wrong. The fact that you still are choosing to practice medicine says so much about you Sara. I understand you a lot more, not saying I've got it all figured out but I understand and that's all I'll say about that."[/B]

Kelly took out his wallet and pulled out a picture he handed it over to Sara and said,[B] "No comments about the cheesy mustache and hair it was the 70's and we were on Spring Break in Cabo." [/B]It was a picture of a younger Kelly and a much younger Matthew. Scott swallowed a bit and said, [B]"Matthew was a freshman when I was doing Grad Assistant work at UCLA part time to help pay my bills. He was so awkward and strange, but he had a good heart and was so smart."[/B] Kelly nodded and said,[B] "A bit awkward to be kind, but I liked him, so I took him under my wing. Got him to lighten up and lose the suit and tie and I got him laid in Cabo too. He was the little brother I never had."[/B] Kelly was finding it hard to continue but did as he said, [B]"Out of all the things I've ever done getting Matthew to be more sociable and watching him grow is my greatest accomplishment."[/B]

Scott finished his drink and looked Sara in the eye and said,[B] "I was one of his references to get his job at Bartok industries, and I encouraged him to go for the internship. So yeah I had a hand in what happened too. Maybe we're not supposed to cross the line, but then again if we don't try then what's the point of our research? I won't do this without you, but I believe that both of us can make it happen. Your work my work together we can do it."[/B]

Scott then shook his head and said,[B] "I'm sorry Sara I shouldn't be trying to talk you into this." [/B]He pushed his hands aside and said, [B]"I won't bring it up again, and this conversation will never leave this table."[/B]
