"I can't believe I've to leave again." Ty groans. "Only a few more weeks left, we can do this baby," Janice said wrapping her arms around him from behind. "That's a few more weeks away from my wife and kids thank you very much." He said with a heavy sigh. "Don't worry, as soon as I'm finished with my exams the kids and I will be right there next to you." She assures him. "Can't wait but on the other hand, did you see what I saw when the shot rang out in the church on Saturday?" He asks.

"Not sure, what did you see?" She asks placing a few underwears in his suitcase. "Jered practically used his body to shield Christian from the bullet," Ty said. "Yes, I did see that but I'm not surprised Jered is deeply in love with Christian but don't you go saying anything to them, Chris would probably have a heart attack if he knew I told you." She laughs.

"Speaking of which, continuing our convo from this morning..." "Well look at you, shortening your words and all." She laughs. "Yeah, who knew but according to Scott and Anna it's actually a thing, right up there with t m I, l o l, I k r, n mp and all that." He snorts. "I'm familiar with the rest but n m p?" she asks confused. "Not my problem." He clarifies.

"Oh.." "Yeah, so as I was saying, looking at their relationship from an earthly p o v...." "Ty..." She warned. "No, just hear me out, from an earthly p o v it's clear to see that they're very much in love with each other but if we should view their relationship from a spiritual p o v then we have a problem because the Bible clearly doesn't condone homosexuality.

Come on kitten don't look at me like that, you know it's true. Now that been said his family and I love him. God gave everyone free will and I can't judge what someone chooses to do with theirs and yes his parents are children of God but I don't agree with what they did.

They can't live by, love your enemies, then turn around and disown their own flesh and blood because God is love and he would never disown any of us, no matter what." He said massaging her fingers.

"It's not up to us to decides who makes it into heaven and who doesn't," she adds. "Exactly, however, he should prepare himself, for whether he accidentally falls out of the closet or comes out willingly, not everyone is going to accept him. Now since I leave first thing tomorrow morning and our kids are currently with their grandparents, what say we drop this subject for now and make good use of the time we have?" He asks massaging her breasts.

"I'm loving the sound of that." She giggles while ripping his shirt open.

Janice was having lunch with Jered and Christian at Burger King when Samson came and sit beside Chris. "Hi, guys." He greets them cheerfully. "Hi, Samson." They replied at the same time. "How did you know where we were? Are you tracking us too?" Jered asks narrowing his eyes at Samson.

"Nope, I text Christian, he told me you guys were all here, so here I am." "Why?" Jered asks again still glaring at him. "well because I felt the need to apologize again for letting you all down on Saturday." He sighs. "You already did that." Janice said in her soft tone.

"I know but Chris, you spend a lot of time via Skype practicing with me and I feel bad that I didn't follow through." "Water under the bridge, stop beating yourself up about it but Ty said it was because of something Caleb said to you. What did he say that made you so upset?" Chris asks.

"I best not say anything, that bit of information could cause a lot of damage; besides, Caleb told me to mind my own business so that's what I'm going to do." Samson said leaning back in his chair.

'Come on, we're a crew within a family, you can talk to us." Chris said in his soft sexy voice. "I know but it's not my place." Samson said biting his lips. "He's still cheating on her isn't he?" Jered asks folding his arms across his chest. "Why would you say that?" Samson asks in a curious tone.

"Please, it's Caleb, he can't keep it in his pants for more than five minutes." Jered snorts. "Sorry, but I can't confirm or deny that." Samson said biting the inside of his mouth. "You don't have to but if he doesn't grow up and stop what he's doing, he's going to cause some very serious damage which he's going to regret for the rest of his life." Chris states. 'But on the other hand, there's a way for you to make up for backing out the other day." Chris said biting his lips. "Name it." Samson said. "My Birthday is coming up in July and...." "Done, I'll buy you anything you need." Samson finishes for him. "I don't need you to buy me anything." 'Then wha..." "I need you to do a dance number with me." Chris states firmly. "Chris I ...." "Hmm, you would be wise to not disappoint me again." Chris warns in a soft deadly tone. "Deal." Samson said putting his hand out for Chris to shake it as a way of sealing the deal. "Wise choice." Chris smiles brightly.

"Alright now before you run off again, I need to ask you one question?" Janice said to Samson. "Go ahead." He said taking up one of Chris's fries. "What is your real name? I know Chris always say it's Samson but I know that's not your real name." She said leaning her head to the side.

"You're right, Chris did name me Samson but my real name is Gabriel. Gabriel Maxwell." He said. "Oh, his name is Bond, James Bond." Jered said getting up and storming away from the table.

Jered was almost to the car by the time Chris catches up with him. "Bloody hell baby, what the hell was that about?" Chris snaps grabbing his arm. "Oh sorry, don't mind me, you can go back to admiring Mr. Greek god over there and sharing your fries with him." Jered said in a sarcastic tone as he tried pulling his arm away but Chris tightens his hold.

"What the hell are you talking about?" Chris demands. "Seriously, you're practically drooling over the guy." Jered snaps. "I was not!" Chris said defensively. "You kind of were." Samson said with a chuckle. "Yeah, glad you find this funny." Jered sneers yanking his arm away and turning to walk away but this time it was Samson's hand on his arm that stops him.

"Alright, let us keep this little scene to a minimum. Yes, Chris finds me attractive and Chris I'm flattered that you do but come on Jered you know for a fact I'm not a threat to your relationship."

"Oh really, I wouldn't be so sure about that. I know for a fact that if you should come onto him, he would sleep with you in a heartbeat." Jered said angrily. "Is that really what you think?" Chris asks in a hurt tone.

"Am I wrong?" Jered asks through clench teeth. "Actually Jered, you're dead wrong, because as attractive as I find Samson, I would never go as far as to sleep with him." "Why not?" Jered asks in a tone that says he clearly didn't believe him.

"Because he's not my soul mate, you are and I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I did anything to hurt you, to make you walk away from me.... like my parents did... I thought you knew me better than that." He said walking back towards the restaurant with tears in his eyes.

"And now you know how I feel about my wife, as difficult as she can be sometimes, she is my soul mate and it would kill me if I ever did anything to hurt her." Samson said to Jered. "I knew all that drooling would get him in trouble." Janice said softly. "Oh trust me Jan, the only one in trouble here, is me." Jered said with a heavy sigh.
