*An hour or so later...Jas is in her room on the internet, Cait is out with Akos, Rhys is trying to cheer Alex up! Nina had gone up and apologised for Jack, but she was too angry to be kind to Nina! And so, Nina was sitting on the sofa, not watching the tv (but it was on) with a few tears strolling down her cheeks...Jack walks in*
Nina: *getting up quickly/wiping away tears* Jack?

Jack: Hi *looking kind of sheepinsh and sorry* I went for a walk...
Nina: Wh, wh...i, i don't understand Jack...what happened?
Jack: I, erm...sit down!
*They sit down*
Nina:

What is it? Jack, you're scaring me! You never say 'sit down' like that! Not unless it's important or serious, or upsetting for you!

Jack: I need to tell you something!
Nina:

Ok, now you really are scaring me!!!

Jack: It's ok...it's nothing to be scared of! Just a bit, well...it's hard for me!
Nina: Sorry, go on...*taking his hands in hers*
Jack:

Thanks *nervous smile* Ok, well...when i was 6, about Alex's age i suppose! I went fishing with my Dad! It was great fun, i loved it so much, mostly i liked spending time with dad *looks sad at the thought of his Dad*
Nina: Jack, hos this got to do with Joe?

Oh Jack...i'm sorry hun *tries to hug him*
Jack: NO, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO DO WITH DAD...WOULD YOU JUST LISTEN TO ME!!!

Sorry...sorry...just, please...

Nina: Sorry

*They hug*
Jack: When i was 6, it was in summer and me and dad went to this little pond near to where we lived! It was a beautiful day, we decided to take a boat onto the pond, well, it was more of a lake, but still! We took Mr Garthbrooks boat onto the pond, we started to fish and everything went great!!!

Then it happened

...*he stops*
Nina: It's ok...you can do it

Jack: There...there was...this, kind of, wind that was about! We were standing up trying to pull in my rod, i caught something! It was my first one aswell, i was so excited! So me and dad were pulling and pulling but it wouldn't come out! Finally, it came, and as it did, our arm flung thrugh the air. Dad kind of accidentally hit me and i went flying, i landed in the lake...

...i tried to swim over to the boat but i was stuck and i couldn't move and it was like the pond was pulling me under. Forcing me to drift further away from Dad's reach!!! It was the most...

frightening thing i have ever gone through!!!

I thought i was going to die...Dad didn't know what to do, he was shouting and screaming, but he couldn't reach me! Then...i kind of got pulled away...further from the boat

from Dad's reach and well, the next thing i remember was waking up in hopsital! I was ok, but i'd swallowed a lot of water!

Alex saying how she actually pushed someone into the pond, purposely, i suppose, it made me remember...the fear, the uncertainty. I just...
