Hey guys, i just wanted to say, thanks for all of the reviews. I'm glad that you like it so far. Well, this chapter is just an explanation of what's going on. So in other words, it's a filler. I hope you like it, and review at the end.

Anyway, onto the chapter

Chapter 10

As 6pm arrived, Jack Bolton has been spying on Gabriella. He knew everyone thought her was dead, but the truth is... he's not. How he survived was, he wore a bullet proof vest. He knew Jake was getting suspicious of him, so he wore it day and night. The reason why he saved Gabriella is because... he looks at Gabriella like a daughter. Jack really doesn't work in the mob, he works in the CIA. He is an undercover cop and he has Emma's, Jake's, Greg's, and Stephanie's case. Stephanie... well Mrs. Hard and Greg work with him, and Greg pretended to be in love with Emma. Gabriella isn't really Greg's daughter, she is Emma's. Greg came into Gabriella's life, 2 years after she was born. Jack does have a twin brother Mike, and Greg also has one, and his name is John. Each time "Greg" hits Gabriella, it's really John. John is Emma's real husband, but John wants Gabriella dead. Emma, John and Jake are REAL mobsters, while Jack, Greg, Mrs. Hard, Mike and Erik... who is Gabriella's REAL uncle, all work in the CIA. Erik has known this has been going on, but the problem is... trying to get Gabriella and Nessie out.

As 7pm arrived, Jack knocked on the door of his old house, with Mike and Erik behind him. Jack saw Lucy walking to the door and it opened.

"Hello Lucy" Jack greeted as Lucy stood there... stunned.

"H... hi" Lucy choked out

"May we come in? We work for the CIA" Jack whispered the last part in her ear.

"Are you going to hurt Gabriella, me or Troy?"

"No. Please let me explain"

"Fine" Jack, Mike and Erik stepped into the house and walked into the living room to see everyone watching Arthur, besides Gabriella and Nessie.

"Explain" Lucy told Jack as the TV was off and the 2 little girls were sleep fast asleep.

"Well, Greg, Stephanie, Erik, Mike and I work for the CIA. We are undercover cops and our mission is to save Gabriella and Nessie from Emma, John and Jake. Emma, John and Jake are real mobsters and we are trying to end it"

"So your saying is you work for the CIA. Is that why you keep leaving?"

"Yes. John is Greg's twin brother and Mike, here is mine. Erik is also Gabriella's uncle"

"What about when you hit Troy"

"I wasn't the one who did it. It was Mike. But we had to hit you and Troy so they won't get suspicious. Plus Mike did it, since I couldn't. Emma, Jake and John have men to watch and to kidnap, if they have too"

"But... Gabriella saw you die!"

"No, our boss told us to pull out, because Jake was starting to doubt us"

"Why?"

"I wouldn't let Emma or Jake to hit Gabriella. Jake and Emma were about to kill Gabriella, so I had to stop them. If I didn't... well Gabriella would be dead. Same with Nessie"

"How did you survive?"

"Well, I wore a bullet proof vest. I always do" Jack unbuttoned his shirt, so Lucy could see the vest.

"Oh" Lucy looked down. She knew Jack was telling the truth, but she was scared that Jack will turn on her.

"I won't turn out like Jake and Emma. I'm not like that. I know it's a lot to take in, but do you think... I could... stay here? To protect Nessie and Gabriella?"

"Ya... you can stay. Just give me time Jack. I know your telling the truth. I can still tell if you lie" Jack smiled

"You always can"

"Yup" Lucy smiled softly and looked up. She knows she still loves Jack, and he still loves her.

"I'll sleep on the couch and do you think they can share your bed with you?"

"Yes they can, and Zak and Chad can be in Troy's room"

"Ok" Jack looked at Gabriella, knowing she will protect Nessie with all her heart and everything she has, "she's brave"

"I know" Jack saw that Greg and Mrs. Hard left to go back to their hotel, and Mike and Erik left too. Troy, Chad and Zak left to go to bed, as the 4 of them stayed downstairs, "I still don't trust Greg and Mrs. Hard"

"Me either. Even though it was never Greg, who hit Gabriella, I know he wants to. He's not even her dad. Her dad is John"

"Was it you who hit Troy and me?"

"Mike did"

"Oh" Jack walked to Lucy and lifted her chin.

"I would NEVER hurt you or Troy. Not in a million years, and they know that. That's why Mike did it for me. Greg would hit Gabriella, and that scares us the most"

"He would?"

"Yes. That's why; they wanted me to make sure no one would. I tried and failed"

"I'm sorry" Jack saw tears fall from Lucy's eyes.

"It's not your fault. You did nothing wrong" Jack hugged Lucy tightly, "what would you say, if we adopt Gabriella and Nessie, when all of this is over?"

"I would love to" Lucy and Jack smiled at each other, and they both started to lean in, until their lips connected into a simple kiss. They both know, they are going back to where they were before all of this started, almost 4 years ago.
