Bree and Oliver wake up coughing, now they are in the saddle with Skylar.

"What happened?" Oliver asks "Scarlett used her power to trigger some kind of subterranean shock wave. You're lucky to be alive." Skylar explains.

"Wait. So you and I are trapped together in a tiny jail cell? I'm not alive; I'm in heaven!" Oliver smiles, Bree looks at him annoyed "Yeah, well, I'm here, too, so don't get weird." She says.

"Scarlett's gonna be back any minute. We have to get out of here." Skylar says "Use your powers to form a space portal and take us back to Earth." Oliver suggests.

His expression is very charming, grin "Unless, you know, you just wanna stay here and make this our cozy little home." He leans on the railing and gets a shock "Wow, that hurt! What was that?" Oliver holds his own elbow in confusion.

"I don't know. Maybe you should try it again." Bree says sarcastically "The force running through those bars makes our powers useless." Skylar says "Great. Scarlett destroyed the wormhole transporter, so we're stuck on Caldera." Bree says.

Scarlett appears on the monitor "It's your own fault for coming here." She says "There are a million other Calderans. Why do you need Skylar?" Bree says "Yeah, you don't want her. Take Bree." Oliver says, Bree glares at him.

"Somebody's gotta take the hit. Thanks for stepping up." Oliver puts his hand on her shoulder, Skylar sighs "Scarlett's a part of the opposition, and they want me to help them take over the planet." She explains.

"And once we do, Caldera will finally be powerful enough to rule the universe." Scarlett says "Totally hear ya. Really respect your drive." Bree lets out a nervous chuckle "But where do we fit in on your little to-do list?" She asks

"Oh, I'm not in control of your fates. Skylar is." Scarlett says "What do you mean?" Skylar asks seriously "It's simple. Join the opposition, and I'll release them." Scarlett says.

"And if I don't?" Skylar asks "Then you'll watch as I destroy them. Slowly and painfully. The choice is yours, Skylar. Let's see how much you really care about your human friends." Scarlett says, Bree and Oliver look distressedly at Skylar who seems stunned by the deal.

Still on Skylar's saddle in Caldera.

Oliver paces back and forth and sighs. "I can't believe we're gonna be killed by your alien bestie. No offense, but sometimes I wish you were just a simple girl from the Midwest." Oliver complains to Skylar and she glares at him.

Bree messes with the monitor and groans "Come on!" She says "What are you doing?" Skylar asks "Every time Scarlett pops up on here, it gets worse and worse for us, so I'm trying to unplug the stupid thing." Bree says impatiently.

"That's a good idea. Or at least change the channel. Ooh, maybe there's a show about remodeling caves." Oliver says, Skylar takes a deep breath "I'm thinking a love nest for two." He smirks "And a guest room for the bionic plus one." He tells Bree in annoyence, she tilts her head with a sarcastic smile.

"Decision time, Skylar" Scarlett appears on the other side of the fence, Oliver jumps in fright "What's it gonna be?" She asks "Give it up. She's not joining the opposition." Bree claims, approaching her.

"Actually... I am." Skylar says upset, Bree turns to her "What?" She asks "It's a small price to pay for saving your lives." Skylar says "But, Skylar...""I made up my mind, Oliver." She turns to hum.

"This is what I have to do. I'm ready to join you." Skylar walks up to Scarlett "Good choice. But before I let you out, I need to know you're serious." Scarlett says "I gave you my word. Isn't that enough?" Skylar questions.

"No. In order to prove your allegiance to the opposition, I'll need to permanently remove your powers to create space portals." Scarlett holds up a device "What? But then I'd never be able to go back to Earth." Skylar says.

"You can't do that." Bree says indignantly, Oliver steps forward "Yeah, take her time-traveling power instead." Oliver says "I don't have a time-traveling power." Skylar says "She doesn't know that." Oliver says discreetly.

"Are you with us or not?" Scarlett asks firmily "Do whatever you have to do." Skylar says upset "We'll never see you again." Oliver says distressed and upset "I know." Skylar says in a melancholic tone.

"Go ahead." Skylar says, Scarlett deactivates the grid and Skylar reaches out, Scarlett uses the device to depower Skylar "Welcome to the opposition." Scarlett smiles.

Meanwhile on the roof of the Davenport Tower

Luke reprogrammed Christina "Okay, Christina's finally all fixed. Now she can think for herself, and choose who she likes better... me, a cute, brilliant man who, oh, by the way, built an android in a day...I didn't even know that was possible and just for that fact I would date myself. Just saying" Luke shrugs

Kaz is sitting in the chair next to him "...Or you, The chicken guy." Luke points "I'm not hearing the insult." Kaz says "Because I'm polite. Another point to consider" Luke winks at Christina who frowns.

"So, who's it gonna be?" Luke asks, Christina smiles "I like Kaz." She points "What?!" Luke shouts "Dude, not only can you not get real girls, you can't even get the ones you build." Kaz laughs.

"I don't get it!" Luke says "You lost to the chicken guy" Kaz chuckles "No! I can't built another one ...where did I go wrong?!" Luke grabs the laptop "Hard to give you a specific date for that" Kaz says, Luke glares at him.

"I like Kaz" Christina says "I hate the genuine way you say that!!" Luke says annoyed and leaves.

━━━━━━━ •♬• ━━━━━━━

In Caldera in the saddle.

"What is taking so long? Skylar agreed to join the opposition, so why hasn't Scarlett released us yet?" Bree says "Maybe she's making us dinner. It would be rude to send us home without a meal." Oliver says, Bree frowns.

"Or maybe she's never gonna let us out of here. We've got to contact Kaz and Chase somehow." Bree says, Oliver picks up his cell phone "Oh, I have my phone." He says.

"We're on another planet. Your phone isn't gonna work here." Bree says, Oliver gives a mocking look "Are you sure? My carrier says their coverage is out of this world, so I'm taking them at their word." He says.

"Look, it's asking if I want to join the Calderan Wi-Fi network." Oliver looks at his cell phone "Wait, yes, Skylar said that her planet has email." Bree points to her phone, she sighs.

"But you need a password to use it. We'll never be able to figure that out." Bree starts to walk away "I'm in!" Oliver exclaims, Bree turns to him again.

"I may have been looking over Skylar's shoulder once or twice when she was emailing Caldera." Oliver says slightly nervously.

"You know what? I can't believe I'm saying this, but thank you for being so creepy." Bree says in a frustrated sarcastic tone, putting her hands on Oliver's arm, who purses his lips.

━━━━━━━ •♬• ━━━━━━━

In the Tower.

Kaz is on the couch with Christina while Luke watches from the counter chewing on the strap of his glasses in annoyence.

"Tell me again just how great I am." Kaz asks with a smug smile "You're the best." Christina smiles "I can't hear you." Kaz says again "You're the best Kazy!" Christina lightly pinches his cheek and he chuckles.

"This is ridiculous. I can't stand watching this, I'm out. I'm going to go out and adopt a cat. Or a dog. Or a parrot to keep repeating that it loves me" Luke says heading towards the door.

McKayla and Chase walk in "Guys! Is everything okay?" McKayla says worried "Hey guys. Where have you been?" Luke asks "Long story. Did you get Bree's message too?" Chase asks.

"Message? What message?" Luke asks "Bree said they had an emergency with Skylar and we were supposed to get here as soon as possible." McKayla shows Luke her phone.

"That's weird. Chrissy, would you mind grabbing me my laptop?" Kaz says, Christina takes Kaz's laptop and hands it over "Uh and who would she be?" Chase asks "Christina. I set her up to be my Android companion but....she likes Kaz more" Luke rolls his eyes.

"Wait, what?" McKayla asks "Dude, did you use my equipment to build a girlfriend for yourself?" Chase says "Oh my God." McKayla says "Believe me, I already regret it." Luke says throwing his hands.

"Buddy that's so sad, and weird" Chase says, Luke tilts his head "I know you'd do the same if you didn't have Mack" Luke says, Chase scoffs "That's out of the question. I just think we should talk about it" Chase puts his hand on his friend's shoulder.

"We don't have time right now. We need to find out why Bree sent that message." McKayla says "Ooh, I got an email from Caldera. Maybe it's that Calderan prince giving his money away." Kaz chuckles.

"What does it say?" Chase asks "That's weird. This email's from Oliver and Bree." Kaz says "Are they okay?" Christina asks genuinely concerned, they frown at her except Luke.

"She seems caring" McKayla says "Something Caitlin never was" Luke says and her cousin pats his back.

"Look. Oliver and Bree are trapped in a Calderan prison cell. With Scarlett." Kaz says "Who's Scarlett?Is she bad?" Christina asks worriedly "Why are you asking so many questions?" Kaz asks in frustration.

"Give me that. How did they even get to another planet?" Chase takes the laptop "Oliver must've used his wormhole transporter. I still have mine; it's downstairs in Mission Command." Kaz says "We need to save him" Luke says.

"Kaz, Go get it" McKayla says "Oh! I'm going with him." Christina stands up, Chase and McKayla look angrily from Christina to Luke "Why did you do that?" McKayla says impatiently because they have to carry extra weight on the trip.

"I'm lonely okay?! Not everyone is as lucky as you guys to go around happy smiling" Luke says in annoyence and leaves, McKayla and Chase look at each other worriedly.

━━━━━━━ •♬• ━━━━━━━

In the saddle in Caldera.

Skylar approaches, wearing the Calderians' clothes "Where's Skylar?" Oliver asks, thinking she's Scarlett.

"It's me." Skylar says "Don't even try it, Scarlett. Skylar's beautiful. You look like a tired old she-beast." Oliver insults, Skylar looks at him offended as Scarlett approaches. Oliver's expression changes "Wait. So that's Scarlett?" Oliver asks.

"Mm-hmm." Skylar smiles sarcastically "Which means you're...""She-beast." Skylar crosses her arms calmly and angrily.

Oliver laughs nervously "What I said... I didn't mean..." He leans against the fence and gets an electric shock "Okay, I deserved that one." He says.

"Let them go, Scarlett. I joined your side, you have what you want. Now it's time to honor your end of the agreement." Skylar says "Yeah, and if you don't let us out of here right now..." Oliver initiates a threat but Scarlett teleports them out of the saddle "Thank you." He says slightly confused.

"Skylar, you didn't have to do this. We could've found another way." Bree says worriedly "It's okay. Just say good-bye to Chase, Kaz, Mack and Luke for me. Tell them I'm sorry for letting down the team." Skylar says upset, Bree looks at her with a devastated look but tries to keep calm, Bree hugs Skylar tightly.

When Bree breaks the hug, Oliver approaches her "Skylar, I... I can't just leave you here. You mean everything to me." He says.

"There's no other way. I'm sorry." Skylar hugs Oliver tightly, he closes his eyes, squeezing her a little tighter, enjoying every second of that last moment. They break the hug and he starts to walk away "Oh, and Oliver." Skylar says and Oliver turns to her again "For what it's worth, I like you, too." She lets out a sincere smile.

'Really?" Oliver's face lights up again with a smile, Skylar nods and light smiles "Let's go. Wrap it up." Scarlett says "Stick a sock in it, space hag. I waited a lifetime for this." Oliver tells her in annoyence.

"Good-bye, Oliver." Skylar says upset "We'll never forget you." Oliver says "Good. Now that that's over with, we can finally get you useless humans off our planet." Scarlett says as she opens a portal.

"Come on."Bree puts her hand on Oliver's back "No. She's coming with us." Oliver suddenly steps back and grabs Skylar's arm "Oliver, no!" She says and Scarlett quickly closes the portal and blasts Oliver.

Skylar retaliates by shooting Scarlett and throwing her against the saddle rail. Bree and Skylar run to Oliver and help him up.

"We have to get outta here." Bree says as Scarlett stands up "I don't think so." She says as she traps the three in a force field.

"How could you attack me, Skylar? You're a disgrace. You just proved that you'll always choose humans over your own, and for that, you'll all be destroyed in the Calderan lava pits." Scarlett says and the three look at each other in distress.

━━━━━━━ •♬• ━━━━━━━

Skylar, Bree and Oliver are trapped in a cage suspended over a lava pit. Scarlett approaches.

"You picked a great time to visit. The lava pits are in full bubble this time of year" Scarlett smiles sarcastically "Take a moment to enjoy the view before I dump you in for a closer look." She pulls a lever that lowers the cage, she releases the lever and leaves.

"Where are the others? They should've gotten our email by now." Bree says "Maybe I could use my super strength to bend the bars." Oliver suggests.

"Don't bother. The cage is like the cell; our powers are useless in here." Skylar shakes her head "Bree Can't you use your bionics?" Oliver asks "I have super speed, vocal manipulation, turbo leap and invisibility. Do you really think any of those are gonna get us outta here?" Bree frowns.

"Probably not, but I bet that bionic attitude will do the trick." Oliver scoffs and Bree returns the look with a sneer.

Bree rolls her eyes and sighs "I can't believe I'm going to die in a lava pit without ever having kissed Mike because of you!" Bree tells Oliver in annoyance.

"Oh really, just know that I may have done you a favor if he's not a good kisser." Oliver tries to come out on top. Skylar and Bree look at each other and look at him.

"Have you seen Mike?" Bree asks, Skylar nods. Oliver looks at them angrily "Yeah, I get it, the guy is a dream" he says sarcastically, Bree nods.

"But are you sure you'll stay with Mike?" Skylar asks, Bree looks at her in a mix of confusion and question "Yeah. Why?" She asks.

Skylar shrugs "I don't know. I always thought you liked Luke. You guys would make a great couple" Skylar says, Bree takes a deep breath "I like Mike" she retorts.

Skylar nods "Okay. I just thought..." "Luke and I are just friends," Bree says slightly uncomfortable. Skylar and Oliver look at each other, feeling a forced coldness in her voice.

━━━━━━━ •♬• ━━━━━━━

Meanwhile McKayla, Chase, Luke, Kaz and Christina walk through Caldera Cave looking for the others.

They run and stop trying to find tracks. The moment they stop Christina bumps into Kaz who bumps into McKayla who bumps into Chase.

Chase turns to Kaz in annoyance and Luke arrives shortly after. "Sorry" Christina says to McKayla who frowns slightly "It's okay" she smiles gently and Chase puts his hand on her shoulder.

"Why did you bring her with us?" Chase asks Kaz "It's not my fault. She follow me everywhere." Kaz says "Because I programmed her to be loyal and always stay by my side" Luke explains.

"Man, you're so needy" Chase says "Look who's talking" Luke says, McKayla presses her lips together and Chase gasps "At least mine is real" he thinks.

"Okay, how are we going to find them on this planet? Every corner of it looks the same. I feel like we haven't even left the place," McKayla says.

"I'll have to locate Bree through her bionic GPS." Chase says, He walks further ahead and tries to locate Bree while Kaz moves away a little to look and Christina follows him.

Luke runs his hand through his hair as he watches Christina go with Kaz and kicks a pebble on the ground in frustration.

McKayla walks up to him "Luke. What's going on?" She asks putting her hand on his shoulder, Luke looks at her slowly.

"I wanted to know if..." Luke sighs with a lump in his throat, McKayla comforts him with a smile "I wanted to test if I could be a good boyfriend. Overcome my fear, I don't know" he shakes his head embarrassed.

"And?" McKayla asks "and I failed even with a robot, let alone with B...a real girl" Luke bites his lip in regret, McKayla hugs her cousin tightly.

Meanwhile Christina ends up bumping into Kaz again "This isn't gonna work." He sighs impatiently.

"Um, cutie, you know what's always great on the hottest, driest planet in the universe? A nice, tall glass of water." Kaz says, Christina looks at him blankly "I'm asking for water." Kaz says "Water!" Christina understands and goes out to look for water.

Chase chuckles and walks over to him "Good call. Caldera only consists of .002 percent water. She got a better chance of solving the quantum physics general relativity conundrum. Ha!" He laughs, Luke struggles to understand the joke, Kaz frowns at him.

McKayla giggles "You're so cute" she runs her hand along his jaw, he blushes with a proud grin. "But you're still hotter than this planet on its hottest summer day," Chase whispers to her as his grin grows wilder.

McKayla blushes and bites her lip "You think so? I thought this was you" she says as she moves her fingers like little legs on his chest and then gently pokes the tip of his nose.

Kaz loudly clears his throat "Let's go lovebirds!" He says loudly and leaves, McKayla steps away from Chase rolling her eyes at Kaz.

Chase looks McKayla up and down checking her out with a tempted smile on his face. Luke walks past him and grabs his shirt, tugging on it to pull Chase with him.

"You two need a nice cold shower." He pulls Chase along and stops in the middle of the path "separately just to be clear" he says, Chase pulls his hand away.

"You have zero moral authority to call me out now. Buddy" Chase says and the two go after Kaz and McKayla.

━━━━━━━ •♬• ━━━━━━━

In the cage trapped above the lava pit.

Scarlett walks up to them "I've kept you in here long enough. It's time." She says "To catch the 5:00 wormhole back to Earth?" Bree smiles comically, Scarlett shakes her head in disapproval.

"Scarlett, please don't do this. We've been friends all our lives. Shouldn't that count for something?" Skylar says "You tell me. Shouldn't our friendship make you more loyal to me than these outsiders? By attacking me, you not only betrayed one of your own, you betrayed all Calderans, and that can never be forgiven." Scarlett says firmily.

"Are you sure? A nice fruit basket goes a long way." Oliver says, Scarlett frowns "Good-bye, Skylar." She says "Wait!" Chase shouts as he, McKayla, Luke and Kaz approach.

"You guys take Scarlett. I'll free them." Chase says, Kaz sets fire to Skylar, McKayla distracts her and manages to dodge the shots hitting her in the back.

Chase runs to the cage "Don't worry, guys. I'll get you out of there." He says, He puts his hand on his temple and scans the cage lock using molecular kinesis to open the lock "Yes!" Bree opens the cage.

Scarlett hides behind a rock while Kaz fires at her, Skylar and Oliver leave the cage and the entire Elite Force gathers to attack Scarlett who comes out of her hiding place.

"Stand back. This one's all mine." Bree says with a confident smile on her face taking a step forward, she begins to charge an energy that flows through her body "Woah!" Luke says, Chase and Kaz look at each other confused.

Bree then uses her body blast to shoot Scarlett, throwing her away, she smiles proudly and Chase takes a second to process the scene with his eyes widening "What the heck was that?!" He exclaims loudly.

Luke presses his lips together "Wait until he finds out I have powers too" he thinks "Thermonuclear body blast. Oh, did I not tell you I have superpowers now?" Bree says smugly.

"No." Chase turns to Kaz "Did you know about this?" He asks seriously "I wanna say yes, just to make you mad, but I had no idea." Kaz says surprised.

"Did you?!" Chase looks at McKayla "Sorry Babe" he says awkwardly and Chase throws his arms up in frustration.

"Seriously baby?!" Chase widens his eyes angrily "I made a promise but I can make it up to you right now" McKayla says "What?" Chase frowns "Telling you first hand that Luke has super powers too" McKayla points and Luke's eyes widen.

"He what?!" Chase grits his teeth "McKayla!" Luke says "You owe me." McKayla says "I owe you?" Luke questions "Yes. you spread a false rumor about my sex life and I never got a chance to fight back." McKayla points out half-squinting her eyes.

Luke raises his finger to retort but doesn't think of anything "Okay, I deserved something like that" he admits "Do you have super powers?" Chase says, Luke takes off his glasses "Yeah, I don't even need this thing anymore" he laughs.

Chase shakes his head with his jaw dropped "Guys, we have to get outta here. Where's your transporter?" Bree asks "Oh, I put it down over there. I don't like to fight with stuff in my pockets." Kaz chuckles, Everyone looks at him indignantly.

"Go get it!" Oliver shots, Kaz finally moves and goes to get it "I got it." He picks it up, Scarlett suddenly throws herself at him and throws him to the ground, grabbing the transporter.

"No. I got it." Scarlett says, Kaz stands up distressed "Hey. No one messes with my Kaz!" Christina says angrily, She goes to Scarlett with her robot strength and holds her.

"Wait. What?" Bree asks "Eh it's a long story. Nonsense not even worth telling" Luke says nervously "All you need to know is that she is a robot, and she loves me." Kaz chuckles.

"No. Please." Christina abruptly begins carrying Scarlett towards the lava pit "Skylar. Help me." Scarlett says "Oh, okay. Now you want my help? Five minutes ago, you were gonna kill me." Skylar says.

"The opposition forced me to. I had no choice. Please help me." Scarlett says "Put her down." Skylar tells Christina but she doesn't do so.

"Oh, yeah, it's gotta be me. Put her down." Kaz says, Christina releases Scarlett.

Scarlett gets up from the ground and goes to Skylar "Thank you." She says "You're welcome. Now hand over the transporter." Skylar says seriously

"No." Scarlett says "What?" Skylar says "You're pathetic." Scarlett says "No, you're the pathetic one" Luke says impatiently and uses his telekinesis to pull the transported towards him while Scarlett was distracted.

"Ha!" Luke scoffs with the transporter in his hand, sticking his tongue out "No!" Scarlett says "Stay away from him!" Bree steps in front "No, you stay away from me, you are useless...." Scarlett stumbles over the edge of the pit.

"Watch out!" Skylar shouts and Scarlett falls into the lava pit, everyone goes to the edge "Uh-oh" Luke says "I offered her a fruit basket. She could be eating peaches right now." Oliver says, everyone looks at him with a frown.

Back at the tower, Bree, Chase, McKayla, Luke, Skylar, Oliver, Kaz and Christina return to the wstsr room

"Oh, yeah. Biggest group wormhole ever." Oliver celebrates "It's good to be back. And it's still early we have the whole night ahead of us..." Chase says, McKayla smirks gently.

"I'm not in the mood, Love." McKayla says, Chase takes a deep breath "Yeah, actually, me neither. Seeing someone fall into a lava pit is a huge turn off" Chase tells her, I agree and laugh lightly and hug him.

"Yeah, just in time. Promised I'd video chat with my mom." Kaz says "Who's mom?" Christina asks following him to the hyperlift "This is gonna be hard to explain." Kaz says frustrated and leaves.

"So the robot is yours?" Bree says in a slightly annoying tone. "Yeah, but she was a mistake. I'm going to go shut her down before Kaz gets too attached." Luke says as he leaves with the hyperlift.

"Hey, you all right?" Oliver asks Skylar "I just can't stop thinking about Caldera." She says "I'm really sorry about Scarlett." Bree says "Yeah, we know she was a great friend of yours." McKayla puts her hand on Skylar's shoulder to comfort her.

"Yeah. I just wish I got to her before the opposition did. Now that they've torn Caldera apart, it's never gonna be the same. My home is gone." Skylar says upset "Well, you still have us" McKayla smiles gently.

"Mack's right. This is your home." Bree smiles "Yeah. You belong here. With us." Chase smirks "With me." Oliver smiles wildly, they look at him "With us." He says.

"Are you sure? I mean, like you said, I'm a crazy alien girl who has 14 toes and does really weird things." Skylar tells Bree "And we wouldn't have it any other way." Bree hugs Skylar.

"Besides, I'm gonna need your help with my new superpowers." Bree smiles.

"Yeah, about that. Why didn't you tell me?" Chase asks "I didn't want you to feel bad. You have, like, one ability." Bree mimicks Chase's bionic power. He rolls his eyes in amusement and annoyence.

"Yeah, a power but it's worth remembering that this is what saved your asses today, wasn't it?" McKayla hugs Chase, he smiles proudly "That takes away the fun Mack" Bree complains, McKayla laughs lightly.

"Okay! How did you even get them?" Chase pulls McKayla to sit on one of his legs while he sits on the back of the couch, she hugs his neck.

"Skylar knew that I wanted more powers, so she acted as a buffer between me and the Arcturian rock. As Luke was also affected by the rock's jolt, he gained powers along with me" Bree explains.

"You touched it? That's really dangerous. You could've been killed." Oliver tells Skylar worriedly "I know, but sometimes, you have to take a risk to help the ones you care about." Skylar smiles at him.

"Kinda like I did for you." A smile slowly appears on Oliver's face "Wow, he picked up on that quicker than I thought." Bree says sarcastically.

"You really stuck up for me today, Oliver. It meant a lot. Thank you." Skylar smiles gently "No problem. So does this mean we're, like, dating?" Oliver smiles wildly.

Skylar chuckles lightly "Well, let's start with this, and see where it goes." She leans in and gives Oliver a light kiss on the cheek. "Aw." McKayla rests her head on Chase's as they watch from the couch.

"Oh, okay. Uh, can you guys excuse me for a second? You were saying" Oliver walks to the terrace and everyone watches him.

As he closes the door behind him he begins to celebrate alone while everyone watches him in amusement.

━━━━━━━ •♬• ━━━━━━━

Later McKayla was eating a sandwich in the kitchen when Chase walked up to her.

"Hi. I made you one." McKayla points to a plate on the counter. Chase smiles "Thank you Love" he walks over to her and kisses her head.

McKayla blushes and lays her head on his chest, Chase grabs the plate and drags it closer to him "Uh you know, about what happened yesterday..." McKayla tucks her hair behind her ear.

"Yeah, I wanted to talk to you about it too" Chase blushes "It was cool...I liked it." McKayla says, feeling her cheeks burn with heat.

"Just to be clear. You're talking about the make-out session on the couch, right?" Chase asks slightly confused by everything that happened the day before.

"Yes silly" McKayla laughs shyly, Chase smiles "Yes it was very... very good" he blushes intensely feeling a shiver just by remembering.

Chase sits down next to McKayla at the counter "I like how things flow between us. I think we should leave it that way." McKayla leans on her shoulder.

"What do you mean?" Chase asks, McKayla shrugs charmingly "That you don't need to be nervous, or frustrated" McKayla says, Chase scoffs "Yes you are!" McKayla doesn't even let him speak, Chase chuckles.

"I understand, it's a big step. But I'm really glad we can talk about it openly and calmly," Chase says, McKayla smiles "Of course, it means a lot to me that we have this intimacy with each other. "And good," McKayla says with a slight smile.

"It really is. I love it when I feel this close to you," Chase says softly "We'll get there okay?" McKayla putting her hand on his leg briefly, Chase smirks and brushes her hair away from her face "I love you. I would wait my whole life for you" he says softly.

McKayla holds his hand to her face with a look of shining passion "But this I speak from my heart" he says "What about the rest of you?" McKayla grins "I wouldn't trust it" Chase chuckles.

"You're adorably stupid sometimes." McKayla pulls away and pours a glass of juice. "But you like it, you can't deny that." Chase says leaning towards her.

McKayla nods and Chase kisses her neck gently "Yeah, it's adorable I can't help but like it and it annoys me" she giggles gently grabbing his hair.

Chase sits back down in his seat "Sorry" he says with a smirk, McKayla sighs and goes back to eating her sandwich.

━━━━━━━ •♬• ━━━━━━━

Bree is in her room finishing her makeup when Luke knocks on the door frame.

"Hey" he says, Bree turns to him "Hi. I thought you were whit your... robot girlfriend" Bree says with a slight sneer, Luke scoffs.

"She was never mine. She always liked Kaz more so. I got dumped by my own creation" Luke says approaching with his hands in the pockets of his sweatshirt.

"How much of a loser am I?" he smiles painfully "Oh you taking me in a difficult situation right now. I can't even say she's stupid to dump you because you created her would hurt your feeling anyway" Bree says, Luke laughs.

Bree puts on lipstick "Look Bree. I wanted to tell you something," Luke says in a nervous but anxious tone. Bree puts away her makeup kit and turns to him.

"Is everything okay?" Bree asks distressedly, Luke shakes his head and pulls a nearby bench to sit in front of her.

"I'm...I've wanted to tell you this for a long time actually but... I don't know, I've always enjoyed our time together so much that it never seemed necessary. But now..." Luke takes a deep breath and grabs his pant legs nervously.

Bree notices the boy's visible nervousness and puts her hand over his. "Luke, what's wrong?" She asks "Bree..." Luke turns his hand and takes hers, she begins to intertwine his fingers with hers.

Bree looks at him with a mixture of anxiety and anticipation "I'm in love with you" Luke feels butterflies in his stomach and his eyes create a layer of water ready to run.

Bree slowly backs away, shocked to hear those words, deep down she knew the information but never imagined he would be able to admit it.

"You are the most amazing girl I have ever met. And I know that no other girl would understand me as well as you do and... I haven't been able to stop thinking about you since the day I kissed you."

"The best kiss of my life because that was the first one with meaning! And since then I couldn't help but fall in love with you" Luke says the words start to slide out naturally and with feeling.

Bree puts her hand on her belly to control the cold she felt "Seriously? Now?!" She thinks as she remembers that she was getting ready to go on a date with Mike.

"Luke...why are you telling me this now?" Bree says standing up and walking around the room "Uh and does it matter?" Luke asks.

"Yes! If you've been feeling this way all this time...why now?" Bree says in a slightly upset tone "Because I thought about..." Luke starts but stops when he sees Bree gasp angrily.

"Did you only start thinking about this because I started dating Mike?" Bree asks, Luke frowns "N-no I...""Luke, I'm sorry but" Bree says.

Bree swallows her feelings. It irritates her that Luke is only moving because he thinks he's losing her, especially when she's waited for him for so long, so long until she got tired.

Luke looks at her with a bright look of sadness that falls over him "I like you, you're my best friend and I would never want to ruin that. But I'm with Mike now and he and I are happy and doing well." Bree crosses her arms trying to keep herself together.

"Yeah, Maybe I was expecting this" Luke thinks, Luke takes a deep breath, trying to steady himself. "I see," he says softly, though the sadness in his eyes is clear. "I guess I really messed this one up too, huh?"

Bree looks at him, a mix of pity and frustration crossing her face. "It's not about messing up," she says gently. "It's just... bad timing." She says.

"Yeah, i see" he says, trying to lighten the mood. "I suppose I should have been a little more punctual with my feelings. Guess I was too busy inventing robots." Luke forces a small, rueful smile.

Bree chuckles despite herself, her heart aching for her friend. "Luke, I really do appreciate you being honest with me...But I need you to understand that this doesn't change where I am now." She says softly.

Luke nods, though the hurt is still visible in his eyes. "I get it. Just... promise me you won't let this make things weird between us. I really value our friendship." He says worriedly.

"I promise," Bree smiles, she sighs pitifully and looks down "Luke..." She sees that his sadness and devastation becomes clearer every second.

Luke moves toward the door, his shoulders slightly slumped. Bree watches him, her heart aching for him. "I, um, I guess I just needed to get that off my chest," he says awkwardly, his voice betraying his internal struggle.

"Maybe... maybe it'll help me move on, you know?" His voice fails, Bree sees through his forced casualness. "Luke, you don't have to justify anything," she says gently. "I understand." She tries to get closer.

Luke turns to face her, attempting a weak smile that doesn't quite reach his eyes. "Yeah, I just thought... well, I thought if I told you how I felt, it might help me find some closure." He passes his hand over his forehead

"Guess I'm not very good at this whole emotional stuff. Not even robots can understand me." He chuckles softly, but it's laced with pain.

Bree's heart sinks at his attempt to hide his feelings behind a joke. "Luke, it's okay to feel hurt. I get that this is hard." Bree says, although she is hiding the same pain as him but is too proud to show it.

"Thanks, Bree. I'll... I'll try to figure things out. Maybe some time will help." Luke nods, his voice cracking slightly.

Bree watches him leave, her emotions conflicted. She knows he's trying to be brave, but the sadness in his eyes is undeniable. As the door closes behind him, she stands there. She sighs in regret, but it was done.
