ABC owns them


Chapter 1

"Johnny, you made it" Eve said to her son as he ran into the church just in time to help his brother Michael give her away at her wedding to Bo Buchanan. John was running very late, he was actually suppose to be here in Llanview last night for the church rehearsal and the rehearsal dinner but he was stuck at FBI headquarters filing paperwork on the latest case he was on. He knew he had to get it done if he wanted to take his two weeks mandatory leave after a big case of this type, the two week leave usually didn't matter much but this time he really needed the break. He also thought it would be great to spend some time will his mom and his brother, Michael.

His brother Michael had gotten Married over two years ago and he even has a kid that Johnny never even met, something Johnny regretted. Johnny had been so busy jumping from one case to the next in the last four years that he hadn't taken time for anything or anyone, and that was exactly how he liked it, well for a while anyways. He lived for work, it took up all his time, he didn't have time for things like family, marriage or children nor did he want those things, since his fiancé left him for another man five years ago he swore off life, love and just about everything but his work.

"Johnny, I'm so glad you made it Bro, it's been along time," Michael told him as he hugged him with a slam on the back

"Glad to be here Mikey" John told him and then they heard the wedding march start.

"Its time boys" Eve told them and they each took one of her arms and lead her down the aisle. John didn't like this type of stuff, he hated to be in the center of everything, he was so thankful that he knew no one would be looking at him, his mother was the star today, she was the beautiful bride. When he got down the aisle near Bo and the rest of the bridal party, John was unsure what to do, did he sit or was he to stand, he was suppose to be a groomsman also, him and Michael along with this Bo's twelve year old son. He whispered to his mom before he helped hand her hand over to Bo and she told him to stand next to Michael on the alter and he follow his lead. John could do that he thought, he took a look around the church, pretty nice he thought, a lot nicer than the church they use to attend in AC.

John continued to glance around the church in amazement as the ceremony proceeded, after a few minutes of searching this place of god he looked at his mother, the woman who gave him so much in life, the woman who gave up so much in her life to take care of her boys, he smiled seeing how happy she was and how beautiful she was when he noticed a few more red heads on the alter standing next to her, there was a short redhead with a loud laugh and he knew that was Michael wife because of the wedding picture they had sent him, then there was a blonde, a dippy looking of a blonde and then he saw another red head, he saw her from the side, she had long hair that reached the middle of her back and he couldn't see her face cause she was turned facing his mom, he moved a little to try and get a look at her face and he almost fell off the alter, Michael saw him and caught him before he did.

"Thanks Mikey" John whispered into Mike's ear

"Any time Johnny anytime" Michael whispered back noticing he was still straining to catch a look at Natalie.

"She's Bo's niece, her name is Natalie" Michael whispered into his ear.

"Thanks Mikey" John said and Mikey chuckled a little.

The ceremony finished up and Eve and Bo were announced husband and wife. They kissed and then they started to walk down the aisle together. John was clueless what to do next when he noticed Michael take Marcie by the arm and walk down after his mom and Bo. Then it he boy, Mathew he thought he remembered his mom saying his name was, Mathew joined the blonde and they too walked down the aisle, all that was left was the faceless red head and him, she turned to John and smiled. John was stunned by her, by her smile, her beauty, her face. He didn't quite understand what it was but he was motionless for a few minutes when he heard her speak.

"It's our turn to walk down the aisle now" Natalie told him as he couldn't believe her voice, it sent chills down his spine. Natalie put out her arm for him to take a hold of and she laughed by the confusion evident on his face.

"Just take my arm and walk" Natalie told him as everyone started to notice they weren't keeping up with the rest of the wedding party. John came out of his gaze and took her arm, she guided them down the aisle to meet everyone else.

John joined Michael and Marcie as he let go off Natalie arm. No words were spoken and he watched as she walked over to a few men and started laughing, he watched her closely thinking he had never seen a more beautiful site when Michael spoke to him.

"Johnny, earth to Johnny, Natalie's not the only person here you know?"

"I know" John said still not taking his eye's off of her, Natalie had even noticed him watching her, she looked him straight in the face and at first she smiled but then she thought it a bit stalkerish and looked away. John saw he was making her nervous so he looked at Michael.

"What happens now?"

"You really don't know anything about weddings do you?' Michael told him and he shook his head no. Michael explained about going to the reception and dancing.

"Dancing!" John said a little to loud cause almost everyone looked at him

"Mom, didn't say anything about dancing," John said getting nervous cause he just didn't dance.

"Do I have to?" he asked Michael like a child

"Yes, John you're a big boy you have to dance like the rest of us in the wedding party" Michael told him when a light bulb went off in his head

"Do I get to dance with her?" John asked excited for a few minutes at the thought of holding her body close to his

"Yeah, actually I think you luck out and she's suppose to be your partner" Michael told him and John grinned a sexy grin.

Everyone headed over to the palace hotel for the reception, the band played the first dance for Bo and Eve and they went out on the dance floor and started dancing, next thing John knew Michael and Marcie was guiding him to the dance floor for it was time for the wedding party to dance, John walked out to the dance floor and he saw her come over to him.

"Mikey says you're my partner for this dance," John told Natalie and she nodded yes. Natalie put out her arm and John took her hand in his and started to just move his upper body somewhat.

"I'm John, Eve's son" John told her introducing himself

"I know Eve talks about you all the time," Natalie told him purposely not introducing herself

"And do you have a name?" he asked softly as he started moving his feet a little.

"I know you already know it, so there's no need to tell you again" Natalie told him looking him straight in the eyes

"And what would make you think I already know your name"

"You asked Michael"

"How did you know that?"

"I'm good at reading people, I'm a cop" Natalie told him as she saw the surprise look on his face.

"No, I know women cops, you're to beautiful to be one" John said and he saw her smile fade.

"I'm sorry did I say something wrong, I was just stating the obvious, the obvious that you are beautiful, and your not like any cop or agent I've ever worked with and I've worked with quite a few."

"Thanks, that was nice of you to say but, I just.. well it's been real hard for me to play things down."

"What so you mean?"

"It's hard to get the other cops, men cops to take me seriously cause of the way I look, that's why I'm so glad to be home and working her for my uncle, when I was in the academy you wouldn't believe the things I had to go thru, the things I had to prove just because I wasn't ugly and because of well...well.. never mind"

"No, tell me what you where going to say, because of what else"

"You know it's not important, it's not something I want to be saying to a new in law"

"Come on we're family now just say it now I'm curious"

"Okay, because of my breast, my chest size, you wouldn't believe the jokes I had to endure, the comments. Don't get me wrong I can handle the wise ass remarks it was just tiresome when my instructors were on the ban wagon too."

"Are you kidding me?" John said with a serious look on his face.

"That's awful, you were discriminated against because of your breast size" John said and then he actually thought it was kind of funny, not what happened to her but what he had just said. John started to laugh out loud a little.

"Of all the discrimination in the world you've got boob discrimination," John said completely laughing. Natalie however didn't think it was funny. She stopped dancing and looked at him.

"I've gotta tell ya but, you do have a fantastic set," John said still Laughing when he saw the steam come from her head and then he sobered from his laughter when he felt her slap him across his face.

"Go screw yourself" Natalie told him as she slapped him and walked off the dance floor towards Rex.
