Listen To The Thunder

"Kevin, please do not be like that. I'm leaving her for you. Be happy baby." Rick frowned.

Kevin gave a small smile.
"I want to be happy but right now I need to figure out how to make Quincy back off without momma or our baby being hurt...."

"Oh, he'll fucking back off when I shove my foot so far up his ass he can taste sneaker." Rick said sweetly.

"Rick, your alive, he is dead. You can't touch him but he can sure as hell touch me and momma."

"There's nothing stopping me from killing myself if I leave Sydney..." Rick said thoughtfully. "You're mine. I can officially beat the shit out of anyone who touches you."

"No! Damnit you will not!" Kevin glared at him. "And Maybe I can protect myself because there is no one else to do it for me."

Rick frowned.
"I'll find someone to protect ya alright?"

"No...im not a baby, well im momma's baby and that's it. The only one that might protect me is momma and he is too fragile for me to want that."

"Kevin, no. I'm sure if you ask your dad to protect you he will. He hates Quincy more than I do."

"He will be too wrapped up in Sydney to give a fuck about me...He always is.A" Kevin flashed a tried smile.

"Kev, I've known Alex longer than you have. He loves ya. And he will murder anyone who hurts someone he loves."

"Then he would have murdered himself a long time ago." Kevin sighed and shook his head. "Ill do my best to be safe while im pregnant....dont want baby hurt."

"Honey please. I'll try and talk him into it alright?" Rick sighed.

"You do what you want, im not expecting any help from him really." Kevin slowly trudged back over to Alex and Sydney.

Rick sighed as he watched Kevin go.
Sydney eyed Rick, then Kevin. She knew something was up. And she didn't like it.

Kevin stood there, not bothering to say hi to his father, he was probably too ingrossed in Syd to notice him.

"Kev... you alright?" Alex asked, giving Kevin a knowing look, asking how Rick had taken it.

Kevin just stared and then shrugged.
"Im fine, just feel a little sick."
He wanted to hug his father for bothering to ask.

Alex nodded. He hugged his daughter tightly.
"I love you baby girl... stay strong." He pulled away with a frown on his face.
Sydney looked around at all of them.
"Okay guys. I'm not being told something and I want to know NOW."

Kevin lowered his head.
It was tie for him to go meet Quincy anyways.
"I have to go...."

"Kevin wait." Rick grabbed Kevin's arm.
"Syd, there's something Kev and I gotta tell you..." He took a deep breath.

Kevin was staring at Rick wide eyed, wasn't he going to wait for a while before busting that off.

"Kevin, I gotta do it." He nodded at Kevin's wide eyed look.
"Syd... when you left that time... Kevin and I... Kev and I fell in love.." He paused, taking another breath.

Kevin stared at Rick lovingly, his eyes holding a small spark. He then slowly inched away from Alex and Syd, closer to Rick.

You could see Sydney's heart cracking slightly through her eyes.
"H-huh?" Her head tilted to the side slightly, so innocent...
Rick looked down, then back up at her.
"Syd, the night you left, I made love to Kevin..." He swallowed.
Sydney stared at her brother incredulously.
"H-how could you do that to me...?" She asked her brother. "I... he's mine... how...?" She couldn't form coherent sentences. "Wh-why?"
