Listen To The Thunder

Rick nodded.
"The night Alex, said some shit to him..." Rikc paused to kiss the top of Kevin's head. "I found him in the grave yard. He was bawling, and muddy, and he kept falling and hurting himself. So I took him in. I let him stay at my place. We got started talkling about how he'd never had a first time, not even a first kiss. Syd and I were OVER at the time. I wasn't cheating. She walked out on me. Kev and I ended up making love. He stayed with me for a few weeks and we did it a few more times before Syd came back. Then he just came to me today and told me he was pregnant. I realized I love him more than Sydney.... more than anything."

Kevin turned and looked at him with big eyes before pressing their lips together. Mike looked heartbroken, no because they were together but he had hit his pregnant son. Mike pulled Kevin to his chest and whispered 'sorry' over and over again. Kevin loved his mother too much to hold a grudge.
"Kevin, Quincy just told me in detail what you do to him....tell me its not because you want to."
Kevin looked disgusted.
"No! He makes me!"

"Thank you for reminding me Mikey, I have an asshole to kill." Alex snarled as he stood and cracked his knuckles.
"Hit him once for me!" Rick piped in.

"Momma....My stomach hurts....I think there is something wrong." Kevin shakily told his momma. Mike frowned and asked him to take his shirt off.

Alex left to go find Quincy.
Rick frowned and slid Kevin's shirt off for him.
"Syd sat on it..."

Mike growled and pushed Kevin down on the floor.
"She had to do more then sit on it....Kevin what all happened here?"
Kevin sighed and rested his head in Rick's lap.
"Quincy had me late the other day, he finished...pushed me down and then stepped on me..on my stomach..."

Rick growled.
"Goddamnit, I am THIS close to killing myself...."

Mike glanced up at him.
"Rick don't talk like that. Your stressing him and stress is not good for the baby." Mike took Kevin's hand and looked down at him. "Your dead, you can't miscarry but....he did something and I cant tell what until your more than a few weeks along."

Rick sighed but nodded.
"Alex better fuck him up..." He murmured as he kissed Kevins cheek.

Kevin looked hart broken. "S-Some thing is wrong with my baby...our baby..." Mike bit his lip but then he hugged Rick. "Im sorry about fucking up earlier....I was scared shitless and I wasn't thinking, you hit me to take care of my baby...Thank you."

"I'm sorry for hitting you, it was just instinct. I was protecting him." Rick nodded, hugging Mike.
"And baby, I'm sure the baby will be fine...."

"I deserved that. Im glade you did it, I know I can trust you to take care of my baby..."
He looked down at Kevin who seemed to be in a daze.

"You can." Rick nodded as he looked down at his lover. "Kev, you alright?"

Kevin didn't even seem to hear him, he was scared for his baby. Mike looked at Rick and then at Kevin worriedly.

Rick turned Kevin around so he was facing him.
"Kev, boo, it's gonna be alright." He cooed.

Kevin fell into his chest and just laid there, he was in shock, there was something wring with his baby...............

Rick sighed as he held Kevin to his chest and rubbed his back soothingly.
"I love you baby..."

He got to answer as Kevin buried his face in Rick's chest.
"Rick, put him to bed, I wanna talk to you..."

Rick nodded and he carried Kevin to his room.
"You stay here honey. Get your rest." He kissed him sweetly and went back to Mike.

"Rick...........What do you wanna do here? Your about to be a daddy but Kevin is dead....Do you want to try suicide to stay here because of not he cant stay with you for a long time, he is a ghost he cant......."

Rick frowned.
"I really do want to. But he flips every time I suggest it."

"Because he doesn't want you to do that, get here and then regret it and grow to hate him because he is the reason you did it....thats how I was with Alex."

"You two are way too paranoid." Rick joked softly. "But honestly, I dont' think I could ever hate Kev. He's too sweet."

"I know he is...He is too much like me......and alot like Alex too." Mike sighed. "But he is going to need you...."

"I know, and I'm prepared to do anything it takes to be there for him." Rick nodded. "Even if that means commiting suicide."
