Shannon walked into the house to find Alex at the kitchen sink, scrubbing the pan he had used for the eggs.

"Hey Princess, Matt is on his way over." Stepping beside her, he nodded towards the pan.

"Switch with me, I'll take care of those." Alex turned her blue eyes to his face, before laughing a little.

"You cook and clean for me? Hell Shan, I might just make you move in!"

Shannon shot her a bright smile as he handed Destiny to her and took over the chore. Alex took a seat behind him on the tiled floor and sat the little girl in front of her, playing peek a boo.

Matt turned his radio up and allowed his mind to wander as he drove down the familiar rodes of home. He knew that Shannon cared about Alex, and in a way different from how he, himself, felt about his sister in law. Even if he didn't want to admit it, Matt knew that his friend loved her. It was obvious in his actions, his demeanor around her, just everything when it came to Alex, it was different. But the part that Matt couldn't figure out in his own head, was how he felt about it. Jeff, his brother, his best friend, loved that woman, made a life with that woman, and he hadn't been gone very long. Despite the fact that he felt he should be outraged or hurt for Jeff in this situation, the anger wouldn't quite form. It was yet another thing on the long list of unexplainables at the moment. Grasping for some semblence of rational thought, he pulled his phone out again and dialed another familiar number.

"Hello?"

"Hey dad." Matt sighed into the phone.

"Hey son, is everything alright? You sound a bit upset." Gilbert spoke, knowing the signs of his eldest son's distress.

"I don't know dad. I just... Hell, I don't know. I didn't know who else to call."

"What's wrong Matthew?" And at that point, everything that had been bottled up inside came tumbling out across the line, and Gilbert sat in silence until his son was out of words before he spoke again.
