Whether or not they're in a relationship, the bond between The Young and the Restless' Nick () and his teenage sweetheart Sharon () burns everlasting.

But she did say that they will always be in one another's lives in an important way. She explained: Whether they're officially together or not, Nick and Sharon are always kind of together, anyway. Being divorced doesn't mean they're not together because they're part of each other's lives and their kids lives, so they always have scenes together and share storylines. How they feel about each other is always there. What their relationship has been the last 10 years is still kind of the same. They're still in a relationship of sorts.

‘March for Meals' provides healthy food for homebound adults in WNY
BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — When volunteers with FeedMore WNY drop off nutritious meals to neighbors in the Western New York community–they're also helping demonstrate what the city of good neighbors is all about. 'They're not just delivering that nutritious meal, but we're offering that friendship, that wellbeing check to let our neighbor know that they're not alone, they have people in the community to count on,' said Catherine Shick, public relations manager at FeedMore. 'We know that our older adult population is continuing to grow in our community which means more and more people are going to be turning to programs like our meals on wheels services to help live independently as long as possible.' FeedMore WNY's home delivered meals program, Meals on Wheels, serves thousands of people in Erie and Niagara County, who are older adults or are homebound, receive nutritious meals. 'This program not only helps people who are homebound, who cannot get out of the house to shop or prepare food, but it helps the caregivers,' said Shick. 'These people who are trying to make sure that their parents, their grandparents, are able to have nutritious food and support when they're not with them.' Every March, they participate in 'March for Meals' to help bring national awareness to the 13 million older Americans who are threatened by or experience hunger. 'March is actually the anniversary of the Older Americans Act that provides a significant funding source for meals on wheels programing and that is why we take this moment in March to spread awareness on the vitality of these programs and how they really do help change lives,' said Shick. During the week of 'March for Meals,' each day community leaders are helping lend a hand to volunteer on some of the routes. Erie County Legislator Laurence Dupre says he's been participating in 'March for Meals' for several years now, and believes it's even more important this year with all the federal funding cuts that are happening. 'With the way things are happening federally, who knows, all we can do is prepare and take care of ours and what we can do locally,' said Dupre. For anyone who is interested in becoming a volunteer you can find out more information on FeedMore WNY's website here or call (716) 822-2002.

The *Real* Reason Young & Restless' Sharon and Phyllis Were Taken Captive Might Surprise You
Young & Restless blindsided fans with the reveal that Traci's fiancé was the 'sick freak' behind Sharon and Phyllis' kidnapping, leaving us not only to fear for the beloved Abbott, but also to try and figure out what his motivations could possibly be. As it turns out, the real reason behind the plot might not be what you're thinking at all! Even more unbelievable than Phyllis not returning Daniel's calls right after he agreed to join the team at Abbott Communications, was the idea that Sharon would go missing yet again on Young & Restless after all she'd been through. But that's exactly what happened. Both Phyllis and Sharon went MIA, and we soon discovered they were locked up in an abandoned mental facility… together. More from Surprise! Young & Restless' Kidnapper Has a *Very* Familiar Face What ensued was nothing short of what you'd expect; loads of bickering brought to a fever pitch by panic, with fleeting moments of cooperation — not to mention comic relief — thrown in for good measure. They soon learned they were part of an experiment, seemingly to test whether or not they could work through their considerable differences in order to survive. Just as realization was dawning on Sharon that they might not be freed anytime soon, Young & Restless viewers learned who their captor was… and it was a shocker. We came up with a pretty solid theory as to why Alan/Martin targeted Sharon and Phyllis, but we still had to question why the writers would put Sharon through this again so soon after her ordeal with Ian and Jordan. Phyllis, too, had been through the wringer with Heather's death and nearly being killed in a car wreck. No sooner did they start to get back on their feet than the rug was pulled out from under them. Why? If you've been paying attention to the way this has played out, you may already have a clue. The kidnapping took place immediately after Valentine's Day, which featured Sharon imagining a reconciliation with Nick, and Phyllis dreaming of reigniting her old spark with Billy in Paris. When it was revealed that Sharon and Phyllis had both gone missing, the story centered around Daniel, Summer and Nick, with Chance being pulled in to help investigate their disappearances. It wasn't long, however, before Billy got in on the action… and it's worth noting that he's been like a dog with a bone since he discovered Phyllis might be in danger. He kept calling her burner phone relentlessly. Fast forward to the present, and we have, not Daniel and Nick, but Billy and Nick, racing to Havenhurst like the proverbial white knights to save the damsels in distress. It stands to reason then, that the plot may have been conceived by the writers as a means of reigniting the feelings teased in the Valentine's Day dream sequences between 'Shick' and 'Philly'. Still not convinced? There has to be some sort of payoff for the Sharon character after all she's been through… what better than a do-over with the man she's never stopped loving? As for 'Philly', while that pairing seems less likely given he's still in the honeymoon phase with Sally, Young & Restless teased a Phyllis/Billy/Sally love triangle this year, and with Phyllis and Billy working side-by-side, it's not a stretch. Phyllis has already been dreaming about Billy, and his protectiveness of her is clearly evident. Should the rescue make him realize there are still feelings there, it's only a matter of time.
