Chapter 24, Consequences

Anna started feeling better. She still was sore but she could manage the pain well. Deck stayed with her making sure she was alright. She was at Owen's computer trying to hack into anything she could find on the men who shot her. Deck stayed close by working next to her. Letty came in seeing everyone working. "Anna can we talk?" She asked her.

Deck looked her direction watching her carefully. After what happened with Anna he felt protective of her around anyone. Anna looked back at him giving the look of reassurance that she would be fine. She followed Letty outside to talk. Letty leaned against her car. "I remember everything. I have for a while now," Letty explained.

"So this whole time you have been playing this off like you don't? Are you crazy? What if Owen finds out?" Anna asked worried.

"That's the thing. I plan on telling him. Dom knows and he is not happy with me. It leaves me no choice than to stay with Owen. Mia and the others probably already know. It's best that I stay away," Letty said feeling down.

"Do you care about Owen?" Anna wondered.

"In some messed up way I do. I hate myself for it," Letty said disappointed in herself.

"I think you can work it out with Dom. Maybe you need to try harder," Anna advised. Letty nodded her head following her back inside. Owen looked over seeing both girls coming in. "Letty what is it?" Owen wondered.

She led Owen elsewhere to talk. Anna stood there with her arms folded watching them leave the room. Deck noticed what was going on coming up to Anna.

"What's going on?" He asked her putting his hand on her arm.

"She remembers and she's telling Owen. I think her plan is to stick around here," Anna turned to look at him. Deck seemed less than thrilled. Now he would have to watch his brother closely. He worried that she would turn against him. His eyes met Anna's as he turned her to face him.

"I don't trust her." He protested.

"You didn't trust me either when you met me. What difference does it make?" Anna said walking away from him going back to the computer.

"Our circumstances are more different my love. There is no reason for me to doubt you," he said taking a step closer to her.

"Maybe there is," she teased him. He smiled at her a little as he leaned in pulling her close to him kissing her cheek.

"Where's Owen?" Klaus asked coming in the room.

"Talking to Letty," Anna answered him. Anna broke away from Deck going the same direction they left to talk. Klaus stood there with Deck as they watched her walk away. She came across another room. There were noises coming out of it. As she slowly pushed the door open a little, Owen was very close to her like he was going to kiss her.

Anna wasn't sure what had happened before she came in there. Then Owen leaned in kissing Letty. This moment seemed to last a while. His arms went around her. Anna was able to quietly sneak away walking back towards Deck and Klaus.

"They are busy right now," she said coming up to them.

"What do you mean busy?" Klaus asked her.

"You got a brain figure it out," she said walking past him. Deck knew exactly what she meant. Within a few minutes, they both walked to the front. Owen had his arm around her. Letty seemed like she was in denial. Anna could tell that she seemed unsure if what she did was the right thing.

"Tonight we have a party to crash," Deck said looking at Anna.

"What do you mean?"

"I think I know who shot you. Now it's my job to get rid of them," he said looking at her.
