Chapter 12

It was a beautiful March day in Las Vegas and everyone was sitting in Criss’ office, laughing and joking. They were waiting on Criss so they could start the production meeting for the next episode. Kayleigh was staring out the window of the room. She was nervously waiting for Criss. She hadn’t seen him in days and wondered if his mom had talked to him. Costa told her that if she did, Criss hadn’t mentioned it to him.
She stood there lost in thought when she felt Costa’s hands on her shoulders making her jump.

“Hey, why so nervous?” he asked her.
She looked up and him and said, “Why do you think?”
Costa rubbed her shoulders. “Damn you are tense. Don’t worry. Everything will be ok.”
“I wish I could believe you. I don’t know. I guess it’s just not knowing what he’s going to say.” Kayleigh sighed. “Why me? I’ve asked this question my whole life but...... i’ve never had to deal with anything like this.”
Costa wrapped his arms around her, hugged her tight and kissed her cheek.
“Hey, you guys, there’s plenty of time for that later on!” J.D yelled at them.
“Shut up!” Costa yelled back at him.

The room was buzzing with chatter and laughter when Criss walked in.
“Hey, what’s this? It doesn’t look like anything productive to me. Looks like a lot of lollygagging!”
“We’re just discussing the next way you are going to try to get yourself killed.” J.D said to him.
Criss laughed and sat down on the couch.

Throughout the meeting, Kayleigh could see Criss glancing at her but she only made eye contact with him once. She could tell he knew. His mother had talked to him. She tried to keep her mind focused on the meeting but she only heard about half of what was being said.
When they broke away for lunch, everyone was walking out the door when Criss said, “Kayleigh, hang on for a minute, I need to talk to you.” Kayleigh felt her stomach drop. She looked at Costa who smiled at her and sat down on the couch next to her.

“Costa, I need to talk to Kayleigh alone.” Criss told him.
“Ok, I’ll meet you downstairs.” Costa told her and winked at her. He was trying to make her feel better but it wasn’t working.
When everyone was gone, Kayleigh looked at Criss and said,”So what’s up?” She could feel her palms sweating.

Criss sat down in the chair across from her.
“I talked to my mother day before yesterday. She told me about your conversation.”
Kayleigh swallowed. “Uh huh.”
Criss sighed. “Look, I know you aren’t a malicious person and I know you wouldn’t lie but I don’t believe any of this and I don’t want you talking about this again. Especially not to my mom. I don’t want her to be upset.”

“Criss, this wasn’t anything about her. It was about you......”
“I know” he interrupted putting his hand up. “But you involved her and I don’t want my mom hurt. I don’t want her getting into this stuff.”
“Criss, i’d never hurt your mom for anything. I love her. I just wanted some advice and Costa suggested......”
“Costa should have told you to come to me first.”
“I’m sorry, Criss. The last thing I wanted to do was upset you or your mother. I can’t help who comes to me. It just happens. It’s been happening to me all my life. Did she tell you everything? Did she tell you who came to me and what was said?” Kayleigh asked him.
“Yes, she did. Kayleigh, I believe that you think my father talked to you and I believe that you believe the experiences you’ve had all your life but the fact is, I believe they are just dreams. People don’t come back from the dead and talk to anyone.”

This time Kayleigh interrupted him. “Yes they do Criss. They do when they have unfinished business. I’m not dreaming it. I never have. Neither has my mother, my grandmother or my sisters. I know you don’t believe me but your father came to me with a message for you. I didn’t ask him to come to me but he did.” Kayleigh was getting near tears. Her emotions were a mixture of anger and embarrassment. “I couldn’t ignore it. He started coming to me the day before our interview. I had no idea who he was until I saw the picture on the mantel in your house the night of the party. I had to tell you. I felt I was being disrespectful to your father if I didn’t deliver his message. He wanted me to tell you that he loves you and he’s proud of you.”

Criss was leaning back on the couch listening to her. She could tell by the look on his face that he wasn’t angry but annoyed. He was chewing on his bottom lip.
“It’s not that I don’t believe you, Kayleigh. I believe that you believe it. I still believe that it was a dream.”
“How could I have dreamed it when i’d never seen him before!” she almost shouted.
“There are pictures on the internet. There have been pictures i’ve shown of him on Mindfreak. You could have seen them.” he told her.

“But I didn’t! Before I met you, i’d only seen a few of your shows.” she said.
”Maybe it was in one of the ones you saw and you didn’t realize it. You could have seen a picture on the internet and it just didn’t register so you forgot about it. Your mind can play tricks on you.”

Kayleigh was starting to get frustrated now. Something she promised herself she wouldn’t do. She knew he wouldn’t believe her.
“Kayleigh, I mean no disrespect to you. I don’t think you are lying and I don't think you are crazy but we are never going to agree on this so it’s best we don’t discuss it anymore and I’d appreciate you not talking to my mother about it anymore. I don’t want you to upset her. Do you understand?”
Now Kayleigh had tears forming in her eyes. “Yes, I understand.” was all she could say. She got up to leave before she really started crying but Criss stood up and grabbed her and hugged her. “Kayleigh, I don’t want you to be upset because i’m not mad at you. This is just something we aren’t going to agree on. Okay?”
She tried to smile. “Okay”
Criss squeezed her tight and said, “ I love having you for my assistant and I want to keep you around.” he smiled at her and wiped a tear that had slid down her cheek. “Besides, my brother likes you so I don’t think I could get rid of you if I wanted to.”
Kayleigh laughed and hugged Criss again.
“Everything's cool so don’t worry. Let’s go get some food. I’m starving!” Criss told her and they left the room.
Downstairs Kayleigh met up with Costa while Criss went off to find J.D and everyone else.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
“So how’d it go?” Costa said putting his arm around her.
“Not too terrible. He’s not mad at me but he doesn’t believe me and he doesn’t want me talking about it again. Especially not to your mom.”
Costa took her face in his hands and wiped away another tear.
”Don’t worry about it. Criss won’t hold it against you. If he said he’s not mad at you, he isn’t.”
“Costa, he thinks I was dreaming! He thinks I dreamed the whole thing and i’ve been dreaming all this stuff my whole life! I haven’t been. I’m telling you I haven’t dreamed up everything. He thinks i’m upsetting your mother by telling her this.”
“Yeah, well you know he’s protective over mom but she’s not upset. She believes you. Talk to her. She won’t mention it to Criss. It’s ok, it’s over with. I promise, things will be back to normal.”
“Well, in a way, I’m relieved. I had a message to deliver and I did it. I’m glad it’s over with.”
Costa hugged her and gave her a kiss. “Let’s go get some lunch.”

They walked into the hotel restaurant to find everyone was in a private room. Criss and J.D were arguing about Criss’ new stunt while everyone else was teasing him.

“Criss, you’ve already tried to blow yourself up. This is crazy. You are going to go deaf if you don’t get yourself killed.” J.D shook his head. “I swear, I am going to take up smoking.”
Criss laughed, “Maybe you should take up meditating instead.”
“You guys are both wasting your breath.” Costa said as he and Kayleigh walked in hand in hand.
“Criss will never stop doing crazy stunts and J.D will never stop worrying. Actually I think you guys just feed off each other.”
Everyone laughed. “J.D, you worry more than mom!”
Kayleigh looked at Criss across the table and he smiled and nodded to her. Seeing Criss’ warm smile made her feel better. Maybe Costa was right. Maybe things would be back to normal.
