"Hello?" Alex whispred since Titan was sleeping beside him.

"Hey Alex. How are you holding up? Dev isn't taking this too well..." He sighed softly into the phone pressed to his ear.

"I'm scared to death... I know what its like out there... I don't want that for my baby..."

"I have been for a while myself, nothing much, I didn't fight but I went pass a few battle fields....I don't know if he will come home..." Dustin ran a hand through his dark curls.

"Did you talk to Quinton? Ask him to look out for him?" He asked.

"Yeah but he wants to stay home with Matt since he was gone so much when they were alive, plus he has that kid now..."

Alex paused.
"I'll go. Is it too late to enlist?"

"You can't Alex. You know you cannot leave Mike and those babies alone. You know Kev and Rick need you. I cant deal with Dev alone....You can't. And according to Quinton it is."

"Shit... I doubt he will but can you call Lane maybe? Check if he's in too? I would do it myself but I don't think I'm allowed."

"I can go over to his house and talk to him. If anyone can pull strings he can. I didn't even keep on with Quinton, he deserves down time with his kid and his husband. Lane just has two girls to worry about."

"Alright please go and talk to him then. I really would like to come with but I doubt I can. Even if he doesn't want to go, ask him if he can get me in..."

"No I wont. Your not going Alex, Thats final." Dustin sighed softly and got ready to go.

"Yes. My babys life is on the line..."
Devin stepped into the room, he'd been listening.
"Can I come with to Lane's, dadd?

"You just wait and see." He hung up.
"Yeah, But let me make myself clear. You are not going with him and neither is Alex. You can no longer in list and if you try I wont help."

His eyes narrowed but he nodded and grabbed his jacket.

Dustin got up, taking his son and walking to Lane's. The man was working under an old classic car, he was dirty, and had oil everywhere, wear thin a tank top, many scars were visible...prominent.

Devin had never met Lane before. Damn he was hot. Normally he would've already been trying to get in bed with him but he was too preoccupied with his brother.

"Lane!" Dustin grinned and hugged him, patting his back. The man pulled his shirt up to wipe sweat from his face, showing his fine abdomen, perfectly chiseled and tan skin just glistening with a thin sheen of sweat. He let the shirt go back, smiling at Devin, his face young, fine cheek bones, angled just right, a little bit of stubble, an arch in his brow, and blue eyes that shined brightly.

Devin nodded at him with a smile, not being discreet at all as he checked Lane out before reminding himself they were here for Titan.

Dustin pulled Lane off, already telling him the story and telling him not to even consider letting Alex or Devin go away to war. Lane was stumped, he was going but not to the same place, and he wasnt getting anyone else in.

Devin followed though, insisting to be a part of the conversation.
"Dad, c'mon. If its possible I want to go..."

Dustin shook his head. "No. Go somewhere while we talk or imma spank your ass and send you home..." Lane was the best of the best, it was not respectful to butt in on grown up conversations and he was a respectable man, it made Dustin nervous, normally it wouldnt have but he hadnt seen Lane in so long...he forgot what his friend was like.

"Fine. But I ain't done..." He walked off, leaving them to talk.

Dustin came back to him after a while. Lane had been like always, told him how it was and how it was gonna be, he respected it, he didnt like it.

"So whatd he say?" Devin sighed at his father.
