Harley explains everything that happens
Marlene: Son of bitch I knew that something would happen when Jon told me his fucking ex called him
Harley: why didn't he tell me? if he would have told me about him stalking him again I would taken care of it differently I would have taken him away from here instead of letting all of this happen
Marlene: baby, it isn't your fault, want someone to blame? Alex is to blame for all this shit
Harley: that's why I left Cali because of the harassment but they never cared of where I went that's why they never took things this far but this dude went above and beyond mom
Marlene: I know, that's how it's always been with him and Jon, he always knew how to hurt him
Harley: well he went too damn far this time
Marlene: he cheated on him, mentally and physically abused him and just left him broken...you're the reason he was able to trust and love again
Harley: Thanks ma, I'll protect and love him till the day I die.
Jon comes out of the room: stop just stop the both of you just please stop it
Harley: baby, what?
Jon: I don't want to hear it anymore
Harley: okay we'll stop love, I'm sorry, please come here I want to hold you and know you're okay
Jon lets himself fall to the floor leaning against the bedroom door frame
Marlene: I'll go make some tea (she goes to the kitchen)
Jon has an anxiety attack with everything that's been going on these last few days….everything just built up till it exploded in that manner. Harley was cautious approaching Jon. Jon becomes increasingly impatient and starts pacing back and forth rubbing his hands together and trying to find air, Harley leaves him alone till he calms down...Marlene comes back into the living room. Harley watches him from the couch
Marlene: oh no! not again
Harley: he hasn't had one in years and he's having one now...I hate seeing him like this mom.
Marlene to Harley: you and me both baby, you and me both it'll pass though you'll see it always does
Harley just watches his husband pacing back and forth knowing that there isn't anything he could do for him..Jon goes to the kitchen and sits on top of the counter in the spot by the window he always sits when he has his moments
Harley worries: where's he going?
Marlene: to the kitchen baby, he'll come out of this you'll see
Harley: oh yeah I forgot he has a spot there, mom please stay the night?, that way if he needs you he has you close by
Marlene: of course I can, I'll do anything for my babies
Harley curls up with Marlene on the couch till he falls asleep...the next day Marlene goes back to Boston a lot calmer...Jon and Harley are getting ready for their move to Paris. Harley and Jon both wake up early
Harley: how are you feeling today baby?
Jon: I'm fine bae, are you ready? I'm done packing
Jordan comes to drive them to the airport
Jordan: hey ball buster you ready? your chariot awaits
Harley to Jon: I'm ready baby, let's go and start our new life
Jordan: awww Harley how sweet of you, love you too babe (busting Harley's chops)
Harley smacks Jordan: hey be nice to my husband, he's been through hell these past few days
Jordan to Harley: ouch! I thought you loved me
Jordan giggles and gets a bit serious when he remembers what Jon and him spoke over the phone: yea he told me all about it how can I forget
Jordan: Jonathan Rashleigh Knight-Rodriguez for the love of God MOVE YOUR ASS you're gonna be late, dear God this man is so fucking obsessed with his hair and then he has the balls to complain about me taking selfies and he's the one who taught me that...I'm pretty sure this condo is rented already...move it move it move it
Jon: hey bro calm the hell down, will ya? (He laughs)
Jordan: I am calm, you're the one who's gonna miss his flight
Harley: how old are you two?...five yrs old again geez
Harley to Jordan: nice new ride bro
Jon to Harley: it's the same old thing, just cleaner LMAO
Jon smacks Harley in the ass...He wasn't expecting that
Harley jumps: whoa...hey watch the back area
Jon: LOL why did you jump babe? someone grabbed you from behind?
Harley plants a passionate kiss on Jon's lips
Jordan: ahhh here we go...no PDA in my car please
Jon sticks his tongue out at his brother...Jordan flips the birdie at him
Harley: really Jordan? Was that really necessary?
Jordan: yup! LMAO
Jordan imitating a GPS: you have arrived at your destination (playing around) now get out LMAO
Jon flips him off this time and as Jordan was about to smack him Jon got out of the car
Jon: ha! you missed...Bye bro.
Jordan: damn so close! lucky bastard.
Jordan gets out of the car to see them off: okay crazy kids y'all have fun and forget all the shit that went on, on this side of the globe...no seriously you guys have loads of fun and be safe don't get into trouble HARLEY, last joke had to get that one in there bro, my bad remember to keep in touch but also remember we're 12 hrs behind you guys so no calling at crazy ass hours LOL Harley please take care of my brother would ya
Harley: of course man, I'll guard him with my life
Jordan: you'd better, he he small joke...no it's not you better cause I want a refund if this doesn't work the refund is still valid
Jordan stays on the other side of the metal detector till he can't see them anymore (Jordan to himself) and they're off and I really hope this distance thing works...good luck
Jordan heads home to Marlene's house
Jordan arrives at Marlene's and walks right in: Mom! I'm back
Marlene: hi baby
Jon calls Jordan to let him know they boarded the plane safe and sound
Jordan immediately answers the call: hey bud, oh good I'm glad...you 2 have fun okay? Call me whichever time you get there just so I know you made it safe, love you both
Jon to Jordan on the phone: of course bro you know I will I have to wake your ass up LOL
Jordan to Jon: ha ha ha very funny but no seriously dude call me to let me know...I'm at mom's now by the way so she knows I'm talkin to you now
Jon: oh good you made it okay to mom's tell her I love her please, we'll call soon I promise
Jordan: yeah don't worry I will, yeah mofo you better
Jordan to Marlene: just got off the phone with Jon they're on the plane now
Marlene giggles: yeah I know I heard, geez baby you and your brother always talking like that...good and are the boys okay?
Jordan giggles too: we love each other mamma that's how we bond (gives her a cheesy smile) yeah they're fine
(On the plane)
Harley: I can't wait to start a new life with you baby
Jon to Harley: it feels like we've been waiting forever for this let's see what the future holds
Harley : you're my future
Jon to Harley: as you are mine
It's a long flight so they both fall asleep...after several hours of flying they finally arrive at their new place...Jon snaps pics of the house right away to send copies back home as soon as he can
Harley: OMG this is gorgeous
Jon: isn't it? wait till you see the inside
carries Harley through the threshold
Jon: welcome home my love
Harley: I bet it is baby
They kiss...Harley takes off his shirt. Jon steps it up a notch...they make out in the empty living room. The next day Jon finds a job real quick flipping houses
Jon comes home from work: babe! I'm home
Harley comes up to him and kisses him, but Jon can tell he was crying
Jon: what's wrong? and don't tell me nothing cause I can see it's something
Jon imagining the worst scenario: oh God not that again...who do I have to kill this time?
Harley: that bastard who was harassing me, he got my number, I don't know who gave it to him but he has it, he called me, threatening your life
Jon: WHAT THE FUCK?! we're all the way in fucking Paris and he still got a hold of you?
Harley nodded: I don't give a fuck what he does to me, but if he comes near you, HE'S DEAD!
Jon: babe nothing's gonna happen to me I won't let it happen if something ever happened to you I'd die, damn it this can't be happening
Harley: and I'd die if I lost you
Jon hits the wall with his fist pissed off and frustrated and in the process hurts his hand
Jon: ahh fuck...great! just what I needed
Harley: oh baby are you okay?
Jon: yeah I'm fine but I think I fucked up my wrist though
Harley: babe, let me take you to the hospital
Jon: no babe I'm fine really, I'll just put some ice on it it's probably only sprained
Harley kisses Jon's hand
Jon: ahh, careful babe please, it hurts
Harley: I'm sorry, I'll get you some ice, sit down baby
Jon bandages up his hand: that should be okay
Harley kisses it again
Jon: how did he find you? we changed our numbers for that reason
Harley frustrated: baby I don't know how he knew my number, I'm just worried he's gonna hurt you
Jon: that's not gonna happen I won't let it. I would feel better if you came with me to work tomorrow
Harley: why? babe I don't need to go to work with you
Jon: bae if he tracked you down by phone what makes you think he's not gonna show up?
Alex is the one that shows up but Jon only says that so Harley would agree to go with him
Harley: okay you're right, but I'm still worried about you baby
The next day Jon takes Harley with him or at least tries to but Harley convinces him that everything is fine and that he should stay so he does...Alex calls Jordan
Alex to Jordan: hey Jordan my man what's going on?
Jordan: what the fuck do you want? haven't you hurt my brother enough?
Alex: wow! dude chill, why so feisty? I haven't heard from your brother and you know what that's the least of my worries...are you free tonight?
Jordan: don't fucking lie to me asshole, Jon told me what you did. And fuck no I'm not free tonight. You'd be the last person I'd hang out with
Alex: dude why are you so fucking uptight? I just wanna hang out...okay so he told you I fucked up but he made me do it...look let me rephrase that I'm gonna go pick you up, you're gonna shut up about it and we're gonna go hang out have a few drinks talk to some ladies maybe
Jordan: are you fucking kidding me? He made you do it? Really? Oh hell no, he's happy, leave him alone. And don't call me again.
He hangs up on Alex, very insistent he calls back
Jordan: dude I'm married too and have two boys
Alex: you know it's not nice to hang up on people when they're talking...hasn't your goddess of a mother taught you anything?
Jordan: leave my mother out of this you mother fucker, fuck you!
Alex: you're so touchy just like your brother (knocks on the door)
Jordan answers it: what the fuck are you doing here? (He tries to close the door on him but Alex pushes his way in)
Alex grabs him, gags him, ties him and takes him: told you we're gonna hang out tonight
He takes Jordan and puts him in the trunk of his car. Jordan was knocked out...after locking him up he gives Jon a call...Jon is at work and he gets a call, he was pissed off he was calling him again. Alex calls Jon and gets a hold of him
Alex to Jon: your brother is not a bad looking man now that I think about it, great kisser too
Jon: what the fuck is that supposed to mean?
Realizing what he means, Jon blows up, Alex laughs
Jon: YOU FUCKER! what the hell have you done now?
Alex: okay seriously dude lay off the coffee cause it gets you hyper..now if you wanna find him you're gonna have to come and get him
Jon: DON'T YOU FUCKING HURT HIM!
Alex: tone it down farm boy relax he's fine
Takes a pic and sends it to him...Alex locates Harley and goes after him as well
Jon: he's tied up and gagged, and that's not hurting him? I don't trust you, you little shit!
Alex: now why would I do that? he's no good to me if he's hurt...don't you think?
Stops talking to Jon but leaves the phone on so Jon can hear what's going on...knocks on Harley's door
Harley: what the fuck do you want? you son of a bitch! (He slams the door on Alex's hand)
Alex barges in: I love men that are feisty makes me want them more...come here lover boy (doesn't gag him but he does tie him up and take him)
Alex to Harley: Jon doesn't have bad taste I give him that (looks at him up and down) you and me are gonna have a little fun
Picks the phone back up: not bad farm boy really not bad
Jon knows what he is talking about: NO! OMFG first my brother and now my husband! Look I'll do whatever you want me to do, just please don't hurt them!
Alex: you know what? I think I'll keep them for me...what do you think? you want your brother and your husband?...come get them
Jon: I will god damnit, they're my life and you fucking know that...why are you doing this to me?
Alex: because it's fun and because this is the only way I can get you to do what I need you to do, I gave you everything and you just decide to leave me...you and I were meant to be together, you can't be in the arms of another man I can't have that...you belong with me and no one else
Jon: I don't love you, I love Harley he's my husband he's the one I love...you had your chance and you fucked it up...I had given you everything you asked for I did everything you asked of me and you still ruined me...I will never forgive you for that
Alex to Harley: you better behave sweet cheeks or this will go bad for you real fast lover boy
Alex to Jon: you know if you would have just listened to me more this wouldn't of happened...I told you not to leave me and what's the first thing you do...YOU LEAVE. So you want to play hardball?...GAME ON, you have 72 hours to find them...I'd run if I were you the time is ticking and the air is running out (hangs up)
Alex to Harley: let's see how much he really loves you (has him chained to an old gas pipe...walks out and goes to Jordan)
Jon goes to try to find them, he's afraid he'll hurt them...it's a race against time to find his little brother and the love of his life...Jon frantically calls his mom cause he has no idea where to start looking
Jon to Marlene: Mom, have you talked to Jordan in the last 24 hours?
Marlene: hey baby...your brother? no I haven't heard from him since he left for London...why? Baby you don't sound so good is something wrong? (no clue as to what's happening)
Jon: I'm fine mom, I just want to talk to him that's all
Marlene: I'm sorry sugar but your brother isn't here he went to London a couple of days ago and didn't really say when he'd be back
Jon calls the one other person he trusts most with serious situations like this... Donnie
Jon: D I need your help
He was so scared and Donnie heard it in Jon's voice
Jon: help me D
Donnie: Jon what's wrong man? You sound scared
Jon: I can't find them...I've looked everywhere I can't find them (breaks down from frustration and anger)
Donnie wasn't sure who he meant: Jon who can't you find?
Jon: THE MOTHER FUCKER GOT TO THEM he's not suppose to know where we are he wasn't suppose to go after my brother and my husband
Donnie: Jon! Who? Jordan? Who's got him?
Jon: Alex got'em
Donnie: your fucking ex?
Donnie knows about Alex even though he never had the chance to meet him...Jon between sobs and gasps for air: yeah...please help me
Donnie: but you said them, who else does he have?
Jon: Harley, he has my baby.
Donnie: oh fuck, I'm so sorry, what do you need me to do?
Jon: HELP ME! HE'S GONNA FUCKING KILL THEM IF I DON'T FIND THEM
Jon was still crying
Donnie: tell me how I can help you, I'll do anything
Jon forgets he has the phone and was talking to Donnie and keeps looking growing more and more anxious by the minute
Donnie: Jon, you still there?
Jon: where are you MOTHER FUCKER? I'M GONNA MAKE YOU PAY!
Donnie: Jon, talk to me man
Back in Boston Evey calls Marlene
Marlene: hi dear, how are you?
Evey: hey mom I'm alright, listen have you talked to Jordan at all today? I've been calling him and he doesn't pick up
Marlene: no I haven't baby, Jon called a little while ago and asked me the same thing
Evey: Jon hasn't talked to him either? that's odd those two can't live without talking to each other
Marlene: I know, he sounded really strange too, I know my boys
Evey: strange? what do you mean? what did he say?
Marlene: I can't describe it, he sounded scared, panicked
Evey: that's not like him...is he having those attacks again?
Marlene: he had one weeks ago, his ex was stalking him. And Harley was gonna go after him
Evey: oh no! (thinking that maybe Jordan went with Harley to find Alex)
Marlene: yeah he was so upset, Alex really messed him up mentally, emotionally and physically
DJ comes out of his room: mom!
Evey: what is it baby?, I'm talking to grandma Marlene
DJ: is there something wrong with dad? where is he? his suitcase is gone and most of his clothes...he doesn't have to tour
Evey: baby he went on a trip
DJ goes back to his room...back in Paris Jon still looking. Jon is frantic...Alex calls Jon back
Jon: where are my brother and husband?, you'd better tell me fucker!
Alex: Now why would I tell you that? do you think I'm some sort of idiot? we're playing a game... now, give up yet?
Jon: I FUCKING HATE YOU SON OF A BITCH! DON'T YOU FUCKING HURT THEM, I'LL KILL YOU
Alex: what's up with the language...time's ticking away you better go faster (sends him pics)
This frustrates Jon more...hangs up
Alex to Jordan I guess big brother really doesn't care (messing with his head) news flash he never has
walks out laughing
Walks over to Harley: guess who I just spoke with lover boy?
Harley: my husband will kick your fucking ass
Alex: are you sure about that?
Harley spits in his face when Alex kneels down in front of him
Alex hits him: Don't you ever do that to me again...understood? cause I just spoke to him and he told me to tell you to go fuck yourself (also messing with his head)
Harley: you're a fucking liar, he hates your ass and he loves me, ONLY ME so you go fuck yourself!
Alex: really? because that's not what he told me just now
Harley : FUCK YOU!
Alex keeps taunting Harley and making stuff up that aren't true
Alex to Harley the next morning: so listen I was looking around for some honeymoon spots where Jon and I can go (shows him some pictures) where do you think he would like to go? I need your help Jordan in the other room tries to untie himself. Harley was ignoring him and giving him the evil eye the whole time
Alex grabs him roughly: I said look at it? (getting mad)
Harley spits in his face again: FUCK OFF
Alex beats him: that'll teach you to stop doing that...you're lucky I haven't killed you yet
Harley: Jon will find me and when he does he'll kill you
Alex: IF he finds you...time's running out
Harley: OH HE WILL, BET ON THAT YOU BASTARD
Alex: you know what? I underestimated you, you're a lot stronger than I thought you'd be
Harley: WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN? CAUSE I'M SHORT?
Alex laughs: has anyone told you, you're funny? no silly height has nothing to do with being strong dumb ass and you know now that you bring that up, you're not so bad for a shorty
Harley: you're seriously fucking crazy
Jon goes to the police station to make a report after searching with no luck...Donnie flies out to Paris to help him...By this time Jon is desperate to find them.
Donnie finds him Jon!
Ddub: what the fuck is going on?
Jon: I don't know where he's got them. He's gonna kill them, D...I can't lose them
Ddub: okay bro you gotta stop for a second and breathe...we're not gonna let that happen I'm here now I'm gonna help in the best way that I can
Ddub: we're not gonna lose them
Jon: thank you, if I lost either one of them I would go insane.
Donnie tries to get him to calm down...Jon took a deep breath and hugged Donnie
Ddub: I won't let that happen (corresponds)
Jon is crying but only because Donnie is gonna help him
Ddub: let it out...then we'll get really pissed and we'll find them I know we will. I know this is incredibly hard but we can't lose focus. Let's look at all the same places again
Jon nodded: okay, this is so hard, I love them so much.
Ddub: I do too and I can't stand to see you like this...it kills me, so..let's get up, brush off and keep looking we can do it I know we can
Jon: you're the best, and if Jenny was in this situation I'd help you out
Ddub: if that were the case I swear to you the guy would be 100 feet underground by now
They start looking non-stop
Jon: OH BELIEVE ME, ALEX IS A DEAD MAN! I'LL FUCKING KILL HIM
After long hours of searching...Alex calls Jon
Jon: QUIT CALLING ME!
Alex: oh okay (fires a shot into the air. Jon freezes up and starts quivering) I guess they're not that important to you (sends him a pic of Harley when he beat him all bloody and slumped over on the floor)
Jon starts freaking out again: baby, oh god what the hell did you do to him?
Alex's voice filled of malice: HE'S DEAD! (hangs up...Jon starts crying hysterically)
Donnie sees the pic of Harley: Jon, come on we have to find them, you can't give up
Jon falls for it and pushes Donnie away and throws himself on the floor hysterically crying: I can't anymore...it's over...FUCK!
Donnie: you said yourself that he's manipulative, he could just be telling you he killed him, come on don't believe him
Jon: YOU DIDN'T HEAR WHAT I HEARD...HE'S NOT AFTER THE ONES YOU LOVE...IT'S OVER!
Donnie grabbed gently by the shoulders
Jon: I LOST THEM, DAMN IT!
Jon pushes Donnie away
Donnie: JON! HE'S FUCKIN LYING TO YOU
Jon: AND HOW THE FUCK WOULD YOU KNOW? HE DOESN'T HAVE YOUR BROTHER AND HE DOESN'T HAVE YOUR WIFE SO HOW THE FUCK COULD YOU POSSIBLY KNOW? HUH? TELL ME...TELL ME!
Donnie holds him even though Jon is pulling away: do you trust me? DO YOU JON?!
Jon nods yes in his weak emotional state
Donnie: he's lying to you and I know in my heart they're not dead, he's only taunting you because he knows they mean the world to you he's pushing your buttons he knows how to upset you
Alex goes outside and fires a shot the boys hear it pretty clearly and run towards the noise and they run to where it came from, Alex waits inside...that's exactly what he wanted to happen...they run into an abandoned warehouse
Alex shuts the door behind them: start walking this is gonna end right now I'm tired of this I'm tired of being pushed away and ignored by you
Jon: seriously Alex? ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?
Alex: well it's not a fucking genie if that's what you were expecting?...fucking duh...it's me
Donnie to Jon: this is the mother fucker you've been chasing? Harley's a major upgrade dude
Jon: He's not an upgrade he's a gift...fuck yeah he is. my babe is hotter (Jon goes up to Alex and punches him)
Donnie fights Alex
Donnie to Jon: find them they have to be here somewhere...GO!
Jon yells out for them there's only one sound coming from both directions of the hallway
Jordan: Jon, over here! I'm over here!
Harley's passed out so the only way he will answer is if Jon finds the room and wakes him
Jon gets to his brother first: are you okay bro?
Jordan: yeah...where the fuck am I?
Jon: in an abandoned warehouse and so is Harley. Alex took both of you
Jordan: get me the fuck out of here, WHAT?!, he took him too?
Jon: yeah he does, I'm gonna fuckin' kill him
Jon untied him...they get out of the room Jordan was in and start calling for Harley and search for him
Jordan to Jon: that son of a bitch is dead when I'm through with him
Jon: Donnie is taking care of him right now as we speak,I have to find Harley
Jordan: D's here?
Jon: He's not answering me
Jordan: who else knows?
Jon nods: yeah I called him to help me find you guys
Jordan initially gets a bad feeling: bro that can't be good I'm sorry (talking about Harley not answering)
Jon looked like he was going to cry
Jordan: we'll find him I promise (they keep looking)
Harley wakes up slowly cause he hears his husband calling out for him
Harley: bae? (he realizes it's Jon and Jordan so he makes as much noise as possible so they're able to find him) bae! over here! (in hushed tones) come quick I wanna go home
Jon finds him: baby! OMG what did that fucker do to you?
Harley: Oh thank God get me the fuck out of here. I spit in his face so he hit me
Jordan goes into the room where Harley's at
Harley: Jordan? Wtf?! he's gonna come any minute we have to hurry
Jon: no babe, Donnie is here with me and he is beating the shit out of him right now but we do have to hurry
Harley: Donnie too?
Jon: yes I was desperate to find you and Jordan so I called him to help me
Donnie exhausted from the beat down he gave Alex slumps in a corner and passes out...at this point Jordan and Jon have Harley and they leave
Harley's loose so he's able to give Jon and Jordan a hug
They both hug him, Jon kisses him and holds him close crying: oh baby I thought he had killed you
Harley to Jon: so did I, you okay? he didn't do anything to you?
All 4 go to the police station to let them know where Alex is
Jon shook his head: no love, I'm fine, I'm just so relieved you're alive
Jordan: that makes 2 of us
Jon: you need to go to the E.R.
Harley: no, I wanna go home, I'm fine really it's not as bad as it looks
Jon turns to his brother: are you okay? do you need medical attention
Jon argues with Harley: no babe, I'm taking you to the hospital, you're hurt,your head is bleeding
Harley to Jordan: JK you alright?
Harley argues back: I'm not going to the fucking hospital I want to go home
Jordan: yeah I'm fine, no I'm not hurt he didn't do anything to me except tell me bullshit
Jon gives in: okay love, I'll take you 's go.
Jon puts his arms around his brother and husband they get home and neither Jordan or Harley want to even look at a room so all 3 sleep in the living room till the boys calm down. Jon didn't sleep much, he kept waking up to check on his little brother and husband and since Jon's awake he decides to carefully bandage Harley's wounds himself since Harley didn't want to go to the hospital
Jon finished doing that and whispers in his ear: I love you baby
Harley wakes up panicked: huh?...where am I?
Jordan tossing and turning but doesn't wake up till morning
Jon calms him: Shhh it's okay baby, you're safe we're home now
Harley curls up with him: oh God! (Jon holds him really close. Sees his bandages) what...how?...who?
Jon: babe, I bandaged you up and you're okay, I'm here and I'm not gonna let him hurt you again
Harley: I'm gonna kill that son of a bitch
Gets up to go to the bathroom but stops in front of the door not able to go in right away
Jon watches him: do you want me to go with you love, I'll wait outside the door
Harley looks at him but says nothing and goes in leaving the door wide open, Jon followed him anyway and just waits till he got out
Harley gets out: aaahhh! get away from me.
Jon felt bad for scaring him: baby! it's me, come here, I'm sorry
Harley goes back to his spot on the floor immediately and pretends to sleep and stays very still
Jon: I'm sorry I scared you, I was so scared I was gonna lose you today
Jordan wakes up thinking someone broke in: who's there?
Jon goes to him: it's okay, bro, I scared Harley by accident, go back to sleep, he just screamed
Jordan: is he okay?
Jon: yeah he's okay, but I feel bad for scaring him
Jordan: he's traumatized I think it's normal (sits on the couch)
Jon nods: I know, damn him, I am so angry that he did this to you 2
Marlene calls Jon
Jon: SHIT! it's mom! do you want to tell her?
Jordan opens his eyes wide: don't tell her anything, please bro I don't want her to freak out
Jon nods: Hi mom!
Marlene: hey baby I hope I didn't interrupt anything I was just curious to know if you've heard from your brother, Evey and I have called him several times but can't get a hold of him
Jordan moves closer to Harley to watch him while Jon talks to his mom on the phone
Jon told her that Jordan called him once, that afternoon: yeah but he was calling from his hotel and he said he forgot his phone charger so his phone is dead
Marlene: oh okay...I wonder why he didn't call me to tell me that. He's usually not like that, okay baby I'll call Evey and let her know, sorry to have bothered you go back to doing what you were doing, love you sugar plum
Jon: you know Jordan, he doesn't think sometimes, love you too mom, bye.
Hangs up with her
Jordan gave him a look: gee thanks bro (laughed)
They both end up laughing a bit
Jordan to Jon: he's shaking, he's really creeped out
Jon moves closer to Harley too: baby! you're safe love, I'm here, Jordan's here too
Jordan: don't get me wrong I am too but he seems more affected by it
Harley jumps when he hears Jon's voice...wide awake but lying down
Jordan to Harley: we're both home you don't have to worry about a thing, you can relax now
Jon looks at Jordan: I feel so bad this happened to you two, it's my fault, he had the problem with me, but he took it out on you.
Jon starts crying
Jordan to Jon: it's not your fault...bro! (sits next to him to console him) you didn't go looking for this, all this shit fell on you from nowhere, look Harley and I are both fine Harley's a bit more affected by what happened than me but we're both okay...it's over. most likely the bastard is dead by now, DDUB wasn't gonna let him off the hook at all
Jon looks at Jordan and then at Harley: I know, he fired a gunshot and told me Harley was dead
Jordan: he did what? That jackass, just breathe, I'm proud of you, you never gave up that says a lot
Jon nods: I thought he shot him and he had showed me a pic he took on his phone that he beat him
Jordan inhales deep: that fucker, but you know what? now you know we're both fine...you saved us (gets choked up)
Jon: I'd do anything for you 2, you're the most important men in my life
Jordan: and we would do the same thing for you (Jordan hugged Jon) you're my dad I knew you'd find me though sometime I did think otherwise but that was his fault not yours
Jon cried even more when Jordan called him dad
Jordan: I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you cry again
Donnie shows up at Jon's...Harley heard the knock on the door and screamed
Jon: bae its okay its just the door (gets up to open it) D? come in please
Harley lays back down and Jordan lays with him for a while
Jon to Donnie: dude I'm sorry for earlier I was angry, frustrated and tired
Donnie: hey bro, it's no problem, I know you were so scared, Jordan and Harley are your life
Jon to Donnie: you bet your ass they are
Jordan to Donnie: don't worry about me I'm fine it's Harley I'm worried about...D no one back home can find out about this
Donnie: they're not gonna find out by me don't worry
Jon and Jordan at the same time: thank you!
Harley woke up screaming from a nightmare
Jon runs to him: bae it's okay I'm here I'm right here shhhh! you're okay (sits with him and holds him) you're okay bae relax you're okay
Harley cuddles up to him crying: he was gonna kill you babe
Jon to Harley: no bae he's not I'm not gonna let it happen (rubs his back...Harley was hysterical)
Jordan to Harley in a soft tone so he doesn't jump: we're not gonna let that happen
Donnie knelt down: Jordan's right, I will protect all 3 of you.
Jon: see bae nothing's gonna happen
Harley looked at Jon: he wants you back, please don't leave me
Jon: fuck no! I'd have to be insane to go back...not after what he did to me and most definitely not after what he did to you
Jordan: he's crazy if he thinks I'm gonna let Jon go back to him...he's gonna have to go through me a billion times
Harley: I love you
Jon holds him close not wanting to let him go: I love you too bae (They kiss)
Jordan to Donnie: why don't we give them a moment
Gets up and waits for Donnie and go to the kitchen. Harley continues to cuddle up to Jon...a week and several days pass...Harley adjusts slowly but surely, still hates being alone for long periods of time and closing any door when he's in a room...He kind of becomes clingy to Jon...he doesn't mind one bit
Harley: can I go to work with you please?
Jon: of course bae any time you want as often as you want (gets closer to him) how's my babe feeling today?
Harley: I just don't want to be alone
Jon: that's fine with me...I'll feel more at ease if you come with me.
Harley starts to cry again
Jon: babe no, please don't cry I'm right here I don't want to be apart from you any more than you want to be apart from me, everything's fine now. it's not gonna happen again I promise
Harley: what if he comes to get me again, while you're here, and hurts you, kills us both
Jon hugs him to console: sssshhhhh bae don't think like that, that's not gonna happen
Harley clings onto Jon: I can't lose you baby
Jon: baby you're not gonna lose me I promise
Harley: you promise?
Jon: I swear (gets Harley to lock eyes with him) I love you
Harley: I love you too baby
Jon: and nothing on this planet will ever change that
Harley kisses him and leaning against his forehead...Jon corresponds
A few more days pass Harley much better...Jordan still staying with them in Paris
Jon after much thought and careful planning decides to completely come clean: babe can you come here please? (anxious and nervous but determined to come clean)
Harley is scared now: what is it love?
Jon: can we talk? (sits down and rubs the palms of his hands on his knees...takes a deep breath)
Harley: of course baby, what is it?
Jon: before I say what I have to say I want to remind you that I love you and I always will no matter what and more than anything on this planet...remember that okay? (turns his head away and takes another breath...Jordan listening from the bedroom)
Harley was really scared now: baby you're scaring me, what is it?
Jon: sorry babe this is just so hard and I don't mean to scare you it's just I really don't know the exact way to tell you because it's gonna be hard to take in and it's gonna hurt me to tell you as much as it is for you to hear it
Harley: Jon what's going on? out with it already
Jon's heart beats fast and his pulse starts racing
Jon was scared to tell him: I don't know how to tell you babe
Harley: for the love of God babe out with it already
Jon: It's something that I wanted to keep to myself but since we have no secrets and you deserve to know so I'll tell you.
Harley: okay...and? babe out with it come on...how bad can it really be?
Jon was crying now: baby it's so bad, more than you can ever imagine.
Harley: babe, hey it's alright I'm fine now, I can take it (caresses his face) look at me
Jon looks at him with tears in his eyes: I don't know how you're gonna take this
Harley wipes the tears: away try me
Jon takes another deep breath: okay here goes
Harley: you've been with me and Jordan endlessly through this ordeal with nothing but patience and love all day every day now it's my turn to do the same thing for you
Jon: Okay, 2 years into the relationship with Alex...oh god I can't do this baby but I have kept this secret locked up for so long
Harley: babe yes you can...what happened in those 2 yrs? breathe just breathe
Jon was trembling
Harley: I'm right here (keeps caressing him to calm him down)
Jon nods: okay, I came home one night from work, Alex was there with his friends drinking and smoking weed
Harley's expression changes when he hears Alex's name: mhm! Okay keep going baby get it out I'm right here
Jon took another deep breath
Harley: well?
Jon: I went into my room to get away and he goes into the room to yell at me that I was being rude to his stupid friends
Harley: what's so bad about that? it's your apartment
Jon: He walks back out and comes back 15 minutes later, with his friends...
Harley assumes: a fight breaks up I bet...were you hurt? okay let me rephrase how badly were you hurt?
Jon shakes his head and starts crying again...by this point Jordan is standing by the bedroom door peeking in through the opened crack of the door
Harley holds his hands: babe what is it?
Jon: he and his 3 friends (He couldn't compose himself)
Harley: babe! hey it's okay breathe you'll feel better if you get it out of your system...babe?
Jon: Alex raped me! Then when he was done, he told his friends to finish, they took turns raping
me for 4 hours
Harley tries to stay calm pulls back from him but not too far apart: what?
Jon: They all took turns raping me!
Harley: I'm gonna kill him
Jordan frozen in shock by what he just heard backs away from the door and sits back on the bed
Harley: babe, I'm so sorry you should have never gone through that. I'm gonna kill that son of a bitch...THEY HAD NO RIGHT HE HAD NO RIGHT WHAT SO FUCKING EVER!
Jon was crying: baby please?
Harley: what?
Jon: Please don't be mad at me for keeping it from you. Nobody knows
Harley: how...Oh God! that's it I'm gonna kill him (storms out to find Alex)
Jon: Harley! Get back here baby!
Harley ranting to himself: mother fucker your dead I swear to God you're so dead
Harley was on his way to find Alex...Jordan comes out of the room
Jon tries to compose himself...He was trembling:hey bro what's wrong? a nightmare?
Jordan shook his head: no, I'm so sorry bro, I overheard you talking to Harley, about what Alex did to you
Jon's expression changes: what exactly did you hear?
Jordan: That Alex and his friends raped you repeatedly
Takes a deep breath in aggressively
Jon: fuck! Bro you cannot tell mom, please?
Jordan: what? I...I...I don't know if I can keep that promise, Jon mom needs to know
Harley locates Alex and beats the shit out of him...he's furious and doesn't stop kicking and punching him
Jordan to Jon: you don't understand...it's gonna be impossible for me to hide this from her I'm not going to be able too
Curtis a mutual friend of Jon and Harley hears the shouting and the punches and rushes to find out what it is so he can report it...once he sees it's Harley the one involved in the fight he goes in and tries to break it up
Jon put his hands on Jordan's shoulders: Jordan please, I'm begging don't tell mom, do you have any idea what it'll do to her? It'll destroy her.
Jordan to Jon: do you have any given idea what it's doing to me right now?
Jon: I know, and I'm so sorry you had to find out that way or at all.
Jordan: were you even gonna tell me at all? I know I made the mistake of listening in and I'm sorry that I did but I did...how the hell do you expect me to hide what I know? when you know she knows us like open books
Back at the alley...Curtis tries to break up the fight
Curtis to Harley: dude! what are you doing? have you gone crazy?
Curtis: Harley stop! you're gonna kill him
Harley: I want to fucking kill him! let me have at him
Curtis: Harley no! stop!
Harley didn't want to stop...Curtis tries to get in between them. A couple of other friends join in to help Curtis stop the fight
Curtis: no! Harley you're gonna get arrested
Harley wasn't listening still going at it: I don't give a fuck
Harley to Alex: die mother fucker die...I'm gonna kill you, you fucking bastard you worthless piece of shit
Curtis pulls Harley off of Alex...for a moment Curtis does separate them and pins Harley against the alley wall: Stop! I mean it Harley, quit it! You could get arrested or even worse hurt and we both know what that would do to Jon if you got hurt...dude! chill!
Harley: he deserves to die, he hurt my baby, he hurt my Jon
He breaks down crying
Curtis: what? (Curtis takes Harley home)
Darrell and Jason get Alex out of the alley once he's free...Harley pushes him away and starts running to find Alex again. Curtis goes after him...while running he finds Jon's number and calls...Jon is talking to Jordan when his phone rings
Curtis: Jon! get over here Harley's gone mad
Jon: FUCK!
Curtis: he's going after Alex you need to hurry
Jon: I'll be there soon
Curtis: HURRY!
Jordan goes with him
Curtis: Harley stop!
Harley wasn't listening and he wasn't giving up
Curtis: Shit! (Curtis pulls him off again)
Curtis pins him against a wall...makes Harley look at him: look at me! this isn't the way to solve things you know better than that dude...come on enough already
He was still crying
Harley: He hurt Jon
Curtis: bro I know you told me that and I'm sorry he did but this isn't the way to do things you know that, Do you think Jon wants you to do this? He loves you dammit
Darrell steps in to talk some sense into Harley: dude Curt's right you can't do this sort of shit, it's not like you, what you and Jon have is solid and if he told you whatever he told you it's because he loves you too damn much and trusts your good judgement...dude don't do this...not this way focus on yours and Jon's needs
Just then Jon and Jordan arrive...Curtis goes up to Jon while Darrell is talking to Harley
Curtis: he's beyond pissed
Jon: I know he is, he's just protecting me
Curtis: he's broken Jon
Jon went over to Harley: baby come here please? I'm not mad at you
Harley storms past them
Jordan gets mad: HARLEY! you're not being fair man you're better than this I know we've had a rough couple of weeks and I know what my brother told you is a hard pill to swallow but you're much better than this...I wanna kill that fucker too for everything he's done dude we can work this out together come on don't you think Jon and you have had enough already? with everything you both have had to endure with all the bullshit you both have had to go through I feel your pain dude I know your crushed so am I
Harley stands there listening to Jordan
Jordan keeps talking: lets you and me help him out like we've always done we're a team we always have been we work well together all 3 of us,we're the 3 musketeers. I know this hurts, to know that he was raped. It kills me...they ganged up on him there was not much he could do it was 3 against 1
Jon to Harley: bae please let's just go home, you don't want to listen to me that's fine I can deal with that but at least listen to my brother, he too wants the best for you. Yell at me all you want...HIT ME all you want I don't care but please come home bae please
Harley to Jordan: he kept that from me all this time
Jon: I know I did and I'm sorry I'm extremely sorry I just didn't know how to tell you and I thought I was doing the right thing keeping it all bottled up I thought I was making it go away if I didn't say it because I felt that if I didn't say it, it didn't exist. Do you have any idea how hard it was for me to tell you that I had been raped? baby I am so sorry
Jordan to Harley: you see, he's hurting too...just as much and plenty more he carried that burden all these years just so you 2 can be happy and I've been blessed enough to witness that happiness that you have...look at what this is doing to all of us we can't let Alex win we have to be stronger
Jon broke down crying
Jordan to Harley: listen to how he is right now...is that how you want him to be from now on? because that's all I've hearing since we got through the hell we lived is this really how it's gonna be from now on? us blowing up for stupid shit you think he wouldn't do the same thing for you if it was the other way around? don't lock yourself up you can work this out you have in the past and I know you always will cause you 2 love each other to goddamn much to not fix things, to not care about each other
Jon wouldn't stop crying
Jordan: it's true sometimes to shut people up the best thing to do is beat the fuck out of them, but in the long run where is that going to get you?
Curtis takes Jon away to calm him down and Jordan stays trying to knock some sense into Harley...something which seems to be working. Harley is listening intently to his brother-in-law
Jordan: nowhere, that's where all this bullshit is gonna get you, the only place you end up is in the slammer doing 10 to life because you killed someone and the only way my brother will be able to see you is behind glass windows and I don't want that and I know you don't either and sure as fuck Jon doesn't either. Do you love Jon?
Harley nods his head: yes
Jordan: then can you find it in your heart to forgive him?
Harley: I was never mad at him there's nothing to forgive
Leans up against a wall breaks down and just lets himself drop to the floor
Jordan: good. He loves you so Goddamn much
In between sobs
Harley: why is this happening? it was never like this he hasn't done anything wrong to deserve any of it
Jon had calmed down and went over to Harley. Jordan takes them home...to Boston. Harley decided to take a sabbatical from the gym. Jon does the same thing from his job. In Boston Jon helps his mom out with farm stuff...Harley hangs out with Jordan more often
Marlene during the lunch break to Jon: baby, you haven't hardly spoken since you got here are you and Harley okay?
Jon: yeah ma' we're fine...why?
Marlene: it just seems like he's always with your brother
Jon: hahaha they're just hangin out
Marlene: if you say so my love. Okay.
Jon: you know since me and Harley were in Paris we're together all the time...which I don't mind don't get me wrong so when we come here or NYC we kinda like doing different things
Marlene: good, I'm glad, you two belong together, he's good for you
Walks off when he starts getting teary eyed when he hears her say that about him and Harley
Marlene suspects something is wrong: baby what is wrong?
Jon: why do you think something's wrong? (carrying buckets of chicken food)
Marlene: because you look like you're about to cry, come on Jonathan I know you like a book
Jon: no mom I'm fine really, I just got something in my eye...I think it's my allergies flaring up again.
When Jordan and Harley get home Harley goes straight to Marlene: ma I can't take it anymore
Jordan: I know why
Harley to Marlene: there's something you don't know
Jon looks at Harley: baby, please don't? I'm begging you
Harley to Jon: baby I'm sorry I can't take it you can't take it...it's time, she needs to know I truly am sorry
Jordan beats Harley to the punch and blurts it out
Jordan: Mom Jon went through something horrible when he was with Alex
Jon: Jordan! Don't.
Jordan to Jon: hate me if you want, that I can take but keeping this locked up I can't anymore I'm sorry...he was gang raped by Alex and his friends 2 yrs into their relationship
Harley to Jordan after he tells Marlene the whole thing: Jordan dude what the fuck!
Harley walks over to Jon and stands by him: babe, I'm sorry
Jon breaks down uncontrollably in front of Marlene
Harley kneels down next to him...consoles him: I'm sorry baby but it had to come out it was eating us alive
Jon: it was something I never wanted my mother to know
Harley: I know baby and I'm sorry but it had to be done
Marlene is in shock
Harley: this secret was killing all of us
Jordan to Marlene: mom you okay?
Marlene shook her head: NO, OMG Jon baby why didn't you tell me? (she was in tears)
Jon also in tears: I'm sorry mommy
Marlene got Jon and pulled him closer to her: No baby, this isn't your fault, there is nothing to be sorry about
Harley and Jordan step aside and watch without saying anything
Jon: I let it happen, I couldn't fight it I couldn't make them stop (Jon lets Marlene hug him but turns away in shame)
Marlene: baby, you were raped by 4 men. how could you fight them off?
Jon: I was too ashamed to tell anyone
Jon falls to his knees...Harley rushes to pick him up: no baby get up please, don't (Jon lets Harley hold him this time not pushing him away)
Harley: come here baby, it's over, you're no longer with him, he can't hurt you anymore you have me now
Jon: he just did
Harley: what do you mean love?
Jon to Harley: my mother found out, she didn't have to find out I didn't want her to find out
Harley: I know baby, but she deserves to know, she is hurt, yes but she will heal, her heart is broken, yes but it won't be like that for long
Jordan helps Harley take Jon inside the house...Marlene follows them making sure her son is
