Thanks girls for the reviews!!!! *hugs*
“Do you boys need any help?” Marty asked as he walked into the garage. “No I think we got it Dad.” Fulton said as he plugged an amp into his guitar. “Ok just let me know if you need anything.” Marty said. He went back inside the house to go look for his wife. “Listen baby, ain’t no mountain high, ain’t no valley low, ain’t no river wide enough baby.” Elizabeth sang as she sat in the middles of her bedroom floor surrounded by clothes. “If you need me call me no matter where you are, no matter how far.” Marty sang as he stood in the doorway. “Are you just going to stand there or are you going to come help me?” Elizabeth asked. Marty walked over and picked up a pair of his jeans and stuck them in a drawer. “There I helped.” Marty said as he sank down on their king size bed. “I think your cookies are done.” Marty said as a ding ding ding came from the kitchen. Elizabeth got up and stepped over the clothes and headed toward the kitchen. The front door banged open and in ran Ron, Tyler, and Matt. “No running” Elizabeth said as she walked through the living room to the kitchen. “Yes ma’am” The three said as the slowed down to a jog and headed toward Ron and Tyler’s room. Elizabeth grabbed a pot holder and took the cookies out of the oven and set them out on a plate to cool. Marty came into the kitchen and hopped on the counter and tried to sneak away a cookie. “Oh no you don’t.” Elizabeth said as she batted away his hand. “Those are for the boys, not you.” “But I’m one of the boys.” Marty wined playfully. Elizabeth took the plate of cookies into the garage and set them down. The boys, Fulton, Randy, and their friends Brad the bas player, and Mark the other guitarist, came over and grabbed a cookie from the plate after they finished their song. “Thanks Mom.” Fulton said as he bit into his cookie.” “Yeah thanks Mrs. C.” Brad and Mark said together. Randy just nodded his head in agreement. Elizabeth turned and walked back into the house to go finish the laundry. Marty had disappeared somewhere so she went back to their bedroom. Just as she was folding the last shirt the doorbell rang. She made her way to the door and opened it. There stood a cop with Kobyn next to him.

“Do you know this young man?” The cop asked Elizabeth. “Yes sir.” She replied “he’s my godson.” “Well we caught him destroying school property with a bunch of other boys. He’ll get off this time but if it happens again he will be sent to juvy.” “Thanks sir” Elizabeth said “I’ll take it from here.” The cop turned around and left while Elizabeth let Kobyn in and closed the door. “Go sit on the couch.” Elizabeth said to Kobyn through gritted teeth. “Don’t say one word. I have a mind to call your father right now, but I won’t bother him about it. He has enough on his mind already. Marty get in here, we have a problem.” “What is it?” Marty asked as he walked into the room. Elizabeth simply pointed her finger toward Kobyn and then went to the fridge to get a beer. “Damit Kobyn.” Marty said. “You're going to get yourself into some real trouble one day. What did you do this time?” Kobyn just shrugged his shoulders and looked past Marty at the wall. “The police caught him destroying school property.” Elizabeth said. “Kobyn, honey, you know I love you but you have got to stop this! You're giving me more gray hairs then Tyler and David. You poor mamma is turning over in her grave right about now!” Elizabeth walked out of the room with tears in her eyes. “Kobyn” Marty said “I know you don’t get along with your dad, but you have to try. Do it for me. Do it for Liz. She tried so hard to get you two to agree and look how you repay her? By getting caught by the police! She just wants the best for you and the only way you can have that is if you come to terms with your father. She has enough to deal with right now.” Marty’s voice softened. She has a lot to deal with and she needs all the help she can get.” Kobyn’s eyes filled with tears. “I’m so sorry Marty.” Kobyn said. Marty got up and went to the bedroom to where Liz was while Kobyn went out to the garage to listen to the boys play.

“Hey honey.” Marty said as he sat on the bed next to his wife. Marty ran his fingers through his wife’s hair and sighed. Liz sat up and positioned herself in Marty’s lap and curled up against Marty’s chest. “I’ve tried so hard to help him. I just don’t know what to do anymore. He just can’t get along with Dino and I’ve tired my hardest to bring them together.” “I know sweetie.” Marty said as Liz began to cry. Marty rocked her back and forth as she fell asleep. Marty gently laid Elizabeth on the bed and covered her with a blanket. Marty glanced at the clock and ran his fingers through his hair. “Almost 6:30.” he muttered. He glanced at Liz and waked to the kitchen to order pizza. “Already taken care of.” Kobyn said as Marty was about to dial the pizza place. “And I picked up Jessica. Alan and Jordan are both in their room doing homework, and the dishes are done.” “Wow!” Marty said. “We may have to hire you as the maid.” “Just trying to help out.” Kobyn replied with a laugh. "And I really appreciate it." Marty said. "Now where are the twins?" "Basement doing God only knows what." Kobyn replied. "Matt, Brad, and Mark went home five minutes ago. Rand is with Fulton putting stuff away." "Damn I'm tired." Marty said with a yawn. "I think I'm gonna turn in as soon as the pizza comes." Marty turned on the TV till the pizza came 20 minutes later. "Pizza's here." Marty yelled. The kids came bounding into the living room from all over the house and grabbed a couple of slices. "Are you gonna want a ride home?" Marty asked Kobyn after everyone cleared from the kitchen. "No, I'll just walk home." Kobyn replied. "You sure?" Marty asked. "Yeah" Kobyn replied. Marty turned and went up the stairs and into his bedroom. He crawled into bed with his wife and drifted off to sleep.

When Marty woke the next morning, Liz was out of bed. He took a quick shower and followed the smell of food to the kitchen where Liz was standing at the stove making pancakes. "I smell food." Fulton muttered as he stumbled into the kitchen in his shorts and shirt. "Pancakes are almost ready." Elizabeth said. "Get the butter and syrup from the fridge please. Oh and go get your brothers and sisters up." Fulton ran upstairs and soon a crash was heard. "Fulton you idiot!" Megan yelled. Marty and Elizabeth laughed as Megan came down the stairs, her hair in a mess. Marty went to the fridge and grabbed the butter and maple syrup. He set them down at the table and grabbed some glasses and orange juice. Marty's cell phone rang and he talked for several minutes. "I gotta go sweetie." He said. "The people at the local news station want an interview." "Am I not allowed one day with my husband?" Elizabeth yelled in rage. "Liz, it's not" Marty began. "Just go. Go give them your little interview." Marty's face fell as he walked out the door. Several hours later, he came home where Liz refused to talk to him .The rest of the day was pretty quiet until dinner when the doorbell rang and Marty went to answer it. "Is Elizabeth Grey there?" A boy about 18 with short, messy blonde hair and brilliant green eyes. "Liz" Marty called. Elizabeth walked to the door and stopped dead in her tracks. "Hi mom." The boy said.

"Oh my God." Elizabeth said. "Liz what's going on?" Marty asked. "Who is this kid and why is he calling you mom?" "Jack?" Elizabeth questioned the boy who simply nodded his head. "Um…Marty, I think you may need to sit down. Jack, why don’t' you come in." Marty sat down on the couch while Jack sat in an armchair. "I don't know how to tell you this Marty…." Elizabeth began. "This is your son Jack." "What?" Marty asked in disbelief, anger, and shock. "I'll start at the beginning." Elizabeth said. "Do you remember when I left for New York all those years ago?" Marty slowly nodded his head. "Well, I was pregnant." "What?" Marty yelled. "I don’t understand." "I knew I wouldn't be able to keep the baby, so I found a family who could care for him, and for that I am sorry. I never thought we would be back together," Elizabeth said as she turned to face Marty, "and I couldn't stand the thought of having a baby that would be just like you, plus I barely had enough money for me to survive. I'm sorry Marty. I should have told you." By this time most of the kids were in the room listening. "Yeah you should have." Marty said as he walked toward the door and then went outside. "This is all my fault." Elizabeth said. She put her head in her hands, "If I hadn't been so stupid," Elizabeth said turning towards Jack "none of this would have happened." Tears fell down her face. The children gathered around their mother. "Oh Momma," Megan said, "Everything will be ok." Megan led her mother to her bedroom where she fell asleep with a heavy heart.

I'm scared Fult." Jessica said as watched her mother being led down the hall. "It'll be ok." Fulton said putting an arm around his little sister. "Maybe we should call Alex. She'll know what to do." Jordan suggested. "Good idea." Alan said. Meagan came back just in time to see Ron and Tyler both make a dive for the phone. She reached it just before the other two. "If there's anyone who's going to do the calling its me." She said as he walked into the kitchen with the phone. For once, Fulton didn't argue with her. He was too busy looking at the new boy. There was something about his eyes. It was like he had gone through a great bit of pain. "I'd better go." Jack said standing up. "No don't." Fulton said standing up. "Mom would want you to stay, or at least till Alex can get here and sort things out." "Thanks" Jack mumbled as he sat back down and took off his leather jacket to reveal a tank top with the words 'Boys U.S Hockey' on it. "You play hockey?" Fulton asked. "Yeah, I played in Minnesota." Jack said with a slight smile as he remembered past memories. "Me and a couple of guys play too, but it's not enough to form a team or anything." Fulton said with a grin. Meanwhile, Tyler and David had been staring at Jacks upper arm. "Is that a tattoo?" Tyler asked pointing at the skull and crossbones on his right bicep. "Yeah" Jack said looking at the two boys. "Cool!" They said together. "Daddy has a tattoo behind his ear." Little Jessica said softly. "It's a circle and Mommy has one on her shoulder. It's a rose and on her ankle is a ring of thorns." "That's cool." Jack said giving the small child a smile. Jessica smiled back and went to sit on Jacks lap. "Alex is on her way and she's bringing Bobby." Megan said as she came from the kitchen. "I didn't tell her anything, only that we had an emergency. They should be here pretty soon." "I think we should introduce ourselves properly." Alan said. "That's a good idea." Megan said, "We'll start with Fult since he's the oldest." "I'm Fulton Jeremy Casey, oldest of this bunch." Fulton began. "I'm Megan Alex Casey, 16 and Fulton's twin." "I'm Alan Ray Casey, and I'm 13. "Jordan Anne 11 years old." "We're Ronnie Julius and Tyler David both 8" The twins said together. "I'm Jessica Kat and I'm 5." Jessica said hold up five fingers to show Jack. "I'm Jack Anthony Boyd and I'm 18. I come from Minnesota and I play hockey and a bit of the guitar." Just then the door opened and in walked Alex and Bobby. "Now what's this emergency?" Alex asked. "Alex, Bobby" Fulton said, "Meet our older brother Jack Boyd." "Oh my God." Alex said before fainting.

Bobby caught Alex before she hit the floor. "I'll get some water." Alex said. He went to the kitchen and got a glass of water. He handed it to Bobby who poured it on Alex. "Can someone please tell me what's going on?" Bobby asked. Somehow the kids managed to tell the tale that they heard earlier. "I hate to say this." Alex said turning towards Jack, "but I new the entire story. I was there when you were born." "I hate to cut this short," Bobby interrupted, "but Marty is still out there and God only knows what he may be doing and Elizabeth is in no state to do anything." "Good point Bobby." Alex said, "You go call the boys and go look for Marty. Check Joes and places close by first. I'll go talk to Elizabeth. Everyone else try and make Jack feel at home. His is your brother after all. Set him up a room. Fulton, call Randy and tell him to come over here. Explain everything to him when he gets here." Bobby ran out the door, Alex went to Elizabeth's bedroom, Fulton headed for the phone, and Megan led the rest to a spare bedroom on the third floor where they set up Jack's room.

Bobby met Dino and Billy in the parking lot of Joes Bar. Bobby quickly explained the story to the others and the three set out to find Marty. They were stopped several times for autographs and pictures. They found him in Elizabeth's club working on his fifth drink. "Marty you need to come home." Bobby said pulling up a chair next to him. "Why should I?" Marty asked while draining another drink and motioning for another one. "I think you've had enough." Billy said taking the drink away from Marty. "Hey give that back!" Marty yelled while reaching for the drink. "No Marty." Billy said who handed the drink to Dino. "Marty you have kids at home who need you. Not to mention Liz." "Yeah and I'm sure I have another 5 children somewhere that that woman didn't tell me about." Marty grumbled. "It's not her fault." Dino said. "Not her fault!" Marty yelled. "It's all her damn fault. She didn't have the nerve to even tell me about my son!" "How the hell do you think she felt?" Bobby yelled back at him. "You weren't exactly the best guy back then. She was scared to death and you ignoring her wasn't helping." Bobby turned and walked out the club with Dino and Billy following him. The three went back to Liz's to let Alex know what was going on before going home. Around two in the morning, Marty made his way home.

Marty opened the door and let himself in. Alex was asleep on the couch. He made his way across the living room till he heard "What are you doing here?" He turned to find Elizabeth in the kitchen, her eyes bloodshot and a bottle of rum in her hand. "I'm sorry Liz." Marty said. "Sorry isn't going to cut it this time." Elizabeth said putting down the bottle. "What do you want from me Liz?" Marty said angrily. "Get out." Elizabeth said with pure hate. "Get out and don't bother coming back. I'll send my lawyer to see you about a divorce." "Fine!" Marty yelled. He walked out the door and slammed it shut. Elizabeth threw the empty bottle against the wall, where it shattered, and laid her head down on the counter and cried.
