Thanks to Trueloveaddict-ally for being an amazing beta. Fanfiction wasn't working for me, which is why I haven't updated sooner.

Chapter 10

Victoria rang the doorbell of the large house. She observed the porch. A flower bed, porch swing, and chimes.

A woman, about 45, answered the door. "Good morning. How may I help you?"

"I'm detective Gates. We spoke on the phone."

"Oh yes, of course! Come inside."

Victoria followed her into the family room. "Can I offer you coffee, tea, water..."

"Some water would be nice."

Shanna returned with two bottles of water. She sat across from Victoria.

She mentioned, "I don't see any pictures of a Mister Reigns?"

"Oh. Derrick passed away long ago."

"I'm sorry, Ma'am."

"Its fine. The twins really could have used a father figure though."

Victoria decided to get right to questions. "Has Allen ever been violent towards anyone in the family? Ever?"

Shanna shook her head. "No, Allen is far from capable." She snorted. "Trust me."

"What makes you so sure?"

She huffed. "He's a god damn pansy, that's what makes me sure. Never liked sports or anything that boys like.."

"What about Addison?"

She rolled her eyes. "Asshole doesn't have good enough grades for any teams at school, but he plays with his friends."

Victoria asked her if she knew about the fight between Seth, Addison, and Roman.

"No, but Addison probably pissed him off. They never really got along. Only God knows why. Who could like that little fucker anyway?"

Victoria was shocked at how Shanna spoke of her sons. Then she realized Shanna wasn't drinking water, but vodka. She cut the interrogation short and went straight to the county jail.

In the car, her phone rang. It was her new partner on the case, Adrianna.

"So how did it go?"

"Absolutely horrible. She's a drunk and who knows what she has done to those boys. I'll see you at the prison."

Allen woke up and followed Ty and Zack to the showers. The guards passed them towels, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and soap. Ty looked over at Allen. "Don't make any eye contact, hurry up and you'll be okay."

Allen followed Ty's advice for the most part. Then, his bar of soap slipped and slid to the middle of the showers. He went to pick it up and someone grabbed his wrists. The next thing he knew, Zack had punched the guy out and told Allen, "Time to go."

Allen was all dressed and watched as Zack pulled his clothes over his caramel skin. He looked away when he felt someone watching him. Ty was smirking by the exit and eventually busted up laughing.

Zack followed them to the cafeteria, completely confused. Allen blushed as they all took a seat for lunch.

Ty asked, "Allen, could you get me a packet of mustard?"

He watched Allen walk away then said, "So Zack man, what aren't you telling me? What goes on in that cell when I'm not around?"

"What are you talkin' about bro? Seriously though, I'm so lost."

Ty rolled his eyes. "Is something going on between you and Allen?"

Zack frowned, "I've only shared a cell with him for a month! I barely know much about him."

Ty smirked, "I could get you the hook up, if you want. You can hold hands and prance off in the sunset."

At lockdown, Allen walked side by side with Ty, who threw an arm around him. "I know someone who likes you.."

Allen laughed, "Oh really? Who?"

"Zack."

Allen's jaw dropped and a prison warden nudged him into his cell. Zack asked,

"Are you okay?"

"Is Ty telling the truth?"

Zack looked at his shoes. "Well... Yeah. But you don't have to like me back or-"

Allen grabbed his arms. "Its okay. I.. like you too."

Ty shouted from across the hall. "Awww! Lookie at the cute-"

"SHUT UP TYLER!"

Seth just had a shower before dinner, and was drying his hair in the bathroom when he flinched. Addison was behind him in the mirror.

"Have you decided yet?"

Seth said, "I need time."

"I need you," he looked upset. "and you just keep toying with my heart."

"Well don't cry, I-"

Addison held his hand up. "Don't. Tell Roman I don't want dinner." He stormed off.

Seth sat on the couch across from Roman and Dean in the family room with his plate. "What movie is this?"

Roman said, "Step brothers, your favorite."

Minutes later, Roman added, "You could have sat with us, you know? But if you want to be by yourself over there.."

Dean glared at Roman, then resumed watching the movie. Seth sat his plate on the coffee table then sat on the end next to Roman.

"Wait a second." Roman mumbled. They sat so Dean had his back on Roman, and Dean was holding Seth the same way.

After the many laughs and funny scenes, the movie was over. Everything felt normal again. Dean actually smiled after Roman took their plates to the kitchen and said, "Come sleep with us tonight. I miss you."

"Are you sure?"

"Of course." Dean cupped Seth's face, and slowly leaned in for a kiss.

Seth blushed, "Its been a while since you've treated me like this."

Dean frowned, "I know, and I'm sorry. For everything. I think none of this would have happened if you and I just went on that camping trip." He looked close to crying.

Seth quickly assured him, "No. You deserved some time with Roman. He works full time and we barely see him. When he is home he's working or resting. Even at the country club he is with his co-workers and not us."

Roman kissed them on the cheek. "Drop it. Let's go to bed."

A/N: I just freaked out. I went to copy and paste the story from my notes, and the screen was blank. I thought this chapter got deleted, but after refreshing the screen everything was okay :)
