Isla POV

I had been Isla Brooks for the past 5 years. I was a unit nurse in a large hospital in the middle of Chicago. I had gotten used to my life as a nurse/wife. The first year was rocky because Phil and I weren't used to each other, but we ended up loving each other.

I was back at work for the first time in 4 months… Phil was killed in the line of duty and it hurt. He was my best friend and my only link to the past. I was devastated when he died and I didn't do anything for weeks. I was glad that his family was there to pick me up since I hadn't spoken to anyone in my family since that night. I hadn't even really given them any thought until one night after Phil died. I missed them, but I knew that they were better off with me being here and them not knowing anything about me.

I was almost done for the day and I was glad. I had an interesting day; I was a pediatric nurse so every day was interesting. I was at the desk when I noticed that someone had walked up. I was almost done with paperwork, so I didn't bother looking up just yet.

"I can't believe that it's you." a very familiar voice said and I forced myself to keep writing and not look up.

"Sorry, I don't know who you are talking about." I said and they chuckled.

"I need to talk to you… do you have a break coming up soon?" he asked me and I didn't know how to answer.

"She is off in 5." Peggy said and I looked at her.

"I will wait over here… thanks." He said and walked away. I looked over at Peggy. She was about 70 and wanted me to be happy.

"He is absolutely gorgeous… you at least need to give him the time of the day." She said and I couldn't help but smile.

"Thanks, Peggy." I said and she laughed.

"Bye, Isla." She said and I sighed as I grabbed my stuff. I knew that I could try and run, but if they had found me here… I knew they wouldn't stop so I might as well talk to him.

I walked down to the lobby of the hospital and he was sitting on a bench. I walked over and he looked up at me with those piercing blue eyes; they reminded me of my brothers.

"You have a car?" I asked him.

"No, cab." He said and I nodded.

"Come on." I said and he followed me to my truck. We got in and the ride to my house was silent. I didn't know what he wanted, but I figured that Randy didn't know that he was here.

We walked inside and he sat his coat down beside the door. I walked in and he was looking around the house.

"You two look happy." He said and I smiled as I felt a wave of sadness wash over me.

"Thanks." I said and he looked at me.

"When will Phil be home? I really don't feel like getting shot." He said and I gripped the counter.

"He was killed… 4 months ago… by a prospect in a gang." I said and the look on his face gave away how he felt.

"Sorry, Is." He said and I waved it off.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him and he sighed as I handed him a glass of wine.

"We need you to come back." He said and I looked surprised.

"Who is we?" I asked him.

"Dad, me, Drew." He said and I looked at him.

"John, why doesn't Randy know that you are here?" I asked him.

"He is so caught up in revenge right now." He said.

"Against who?" I asked him.

"Well, when you left… it went great… we had the city. We had it all and Randy seemed happier. He married Kelly and life was good for all of us. Well, about a year ago Wade, Justin, Heath, and some new guys decided that they didn't like how Randy was running things and took off. They started their own crew and to top it off… Heath slept with Kelly as a message to Randy." He said and I looked at him. I knew that Kelly was his sister.

"Where is Kelly now?" I asked him.

"She committed suicide." He said and I put my hand over his.

"I'm sorry, John." I said and he looked at me and sighed.

"Isla, we need your help. Your dad didn't tell me where you were… I tracked out down because we need you." he said and I sighed. I looked around at a house that wasn't ever really mine and held memories of Phil and I. I had loved him, but I knew that I still loved my family more.

"John…" I said.

"Look, Is, I don't expect you to come back right away, but I wanted you to know that Randy still misses you. He doesn't blame you for what happened, but he does miss you." he said and I sighed.

I sat up talking to John for awhile before letting him crash in the guest bedroom. I couldn't sleep and I didn't even want to try. I had so many things going around inside of my head. I was sitting in the living room with the rest of my wine and I saw a picture that we had taken on our 2nd wedding anniversary. I picked it up and smiled. I had a lot of fun with Phil and he had given me everything I needed. I sat there and thought about everything… I knew what I wanted to do and what I needed to do.

John POV

I woke up the next morning to find Isla asleep on the couch with a picture of her and Phil on her chest. I picked it up and looked at it. She looked happy and I knew that by asking her to come back I was doing a lot, but she needed to know what was going on.

"When do you want to leave?" she asked me and I looked down at her.

"What?" I asked her.

"I have nothing really here left… I can tell his family that I took a job in Florida. I realized last night that the only real family/ friends I have are still there. I ran away when I thought I needed to, but I shouldn't have." She said and I sat down beside her when she sat up.

"Are you sure?" I asked her and she nodded.

"Yeah, I just need to get movers to pack up what I want and everything else can be left here. I called one of Phil's sister's last night. She is getting a divorce and I told her that she could stay here as long as she paid the bills." She said and I realized that she had really thought this through.

"Fine, what do you need me to do?" I asked her.

"Here, start packing pictures." She said as she handed me a box as we walked out of the garage. I couldn't believe that she was actually going to do this.

A/N: Pls let me know what you think!
