Julia hugged both of them close, hoping Alex was right but thinking of her
return, not knowing about the points both Alex and Derek had made in their
private discussion.  All she knew was that this thing popped up and she was
here.  What were the odds...?

Alex could see the doubt in her friend's eyes and that made her heart break.
"This isn't your fault.  Mitchell vanished off the face of the earth before
you came back.  This thing was already well on his way back here.  It has
nothing to do with you, but now that he's here he probably wants what he
couldn't have before and Julia you can't let him have it.  But if you keep
having these doubts.....it will be so easy for him."

Alex
