"What part did you not understand?" Casey brought his hands up to his hips. "Get out!"

The room was eerily quiet as soon as Nancy entered the house. Jamie immediately took refuge round behind his mum, who was now standing in front of him. All Gabby could think about was how Nancy make Jamie feel the last time she came, Jamie had done nothing wrong - he didn't deserve this. She felt him rest his head against her back and she turned to face him. There was a small smile on his face as she looked at him, his blue eyes shining. "Are you ok, Monkey?" she asked as she kissed him on his forehead.

He nodded a little before he answered. "Has dad always been like this?"

"Protective? Yes he has." she answered. As far as she could remember Casey had held a grudge with his mother. Sometimes she thought it was because she killed his father but deep down she knew it was more than that. Somewhere, somehow something happened to one of them, it had caused a whole amount of backlog and Gabby was worried that this time everything was going to break loose.

"Mum, I think you better leave." Stefan suggested forcefully from a few feet behind his brother, who was standing squarely - his fists clenched and his teeth gritted.

"So you're defending your brother now, the one that you have known for all of thirty seconds!" Nancy's voice was rising and Gabby could feel Jamie holding tighter and tighter to her shirt, nothing good can come out of this.

Stefan pushed passed Matt and ended up a short distance from his mother. "You have no idea how we met and trust me, I don't think you'd even want to." he spat. "Matt saved my life and I owe him everything. If that means going up against you to defend him then I'll do that happily."

Nancy stood there in awe, she couldn't quite believe her youngest son's sudden change in heart. The main reason that she kept Matt out of Stefan's life was because she was worried that he was going to turn into the abusive father that Matt had grown up with. In the real world, Nancy had no idea how Matt acted and jumping to conclusions was something that she did a little too often, making things worse before they got better. "What has he done to you?"

There was a sharp intake of breath from Matt and Gabby saw it, they all did. "Matt, come over here." she told softy. It took a few moments but he did, Casey's eyes didn't leave his mothers until he was standing beside his fiance, her hand in his. She turned him to face her. "Take Jamie upstairs. I'll handle Nancy like I did last time, all I need to know is stay or go for Stefan?"

He raised his eyes to hers, the blue was a different colour to what it usually was. That was one thing that Gabby always found interesting about his eyes, they changed with his emotions. They where now a deep sea blue and Gabby knew what that meant, he was furious.

"Stefan stays." he said quietly as he turned his body so he was facing Jamie. "Come on little one, I need a cuddle." he finished as he picked up his son and began to carry him towards the stairs.

Jago climbed out of his car and went round to the truck to grab his duffle bag, little clouds of white coming from his mouth as be breathed. Before coming back to Chicago, Robert had been on an extended 'holiday' after his mother died of cancer. It hit him and his family hard, so he went and stayed with them in Phoenix until the most part of the shock had blown over. During his time Arizona his uncle had had a long talk with him about what he wanted to do as a proper job,because floating around after collage wasn't good enough, at the time Jago had no idea. A few weeks later he made the decision to come back to the Windy City. Much like Gabby when she came to the city, he saw a 'Recruiting Fire Fighters' poster and thought why not, this could be interesting.
