Darren and Christopher

One night when the ghost of Viola had been especially active, Darren decided to move her headstone to the "Lost Soul's Cemetery". Viola always appeared very angry, and especially aggressive, scaring the family many times each night she came out. Darren thought it was sad, the way she had died...so young, and as a guest at his and Brandi's wedding. He wanted her final resting place to be nice. He thought that perhaps she would rest better if she were away from the place where she had died so violently.
While at the cemetery, Darren witnessed an interesting exchange between two of the townies of Pleasantview. Darren shook his head, turned around and quickly left in his taxi.
Upon his return, Darren decided to play some chess. Zoe and Christopher were out on the deck talking. Darren sat down, as Christopher took Zoe's hands in his.
Christopher then bent down and kissed Zoe...his very first kiss...and hers as well. Darren tried not to stare, and looked straight ahead. He couldn't help but feel a little awkward though. It had certainly been a strange night for Darren!
