Maisey - Walter Verse Part 25

by Awatere11

So, six months later and Maisey is now fully entrenched in the Harkenss-Jones family ... screaming teeth and all. Curtis must lean to control her as Ianto starts pulling back, his advice either not adhered to or not welcome as cracks start to show. Curtis is NOT Ianto and must learn his own lessons even as Maisey learns every day.

Walter turned and had mere moments to register the fact this was a surreal moment he had never thought would happen before a large, angry Toninator was slammed against him, nose to nose.

"Listen to me. I am your brother and I know stuff, you better listen up and listen good because I am so mad at you right now I might run over your garden on my lawnmower and you know how much that will make me sad later!" Ton snarled, Walter nodded.

"Maisey sez you were like her father, the bad one. You scared her. REALLY scared her and she thought you were gonna hurt her or Curty. You know that? You were scary and a …a….a pig! My own brother. My beloved Walter … a horrible PIG!" To roared, Walter balking with horror.

"Tonny…. I …. I didn't' know. I was drunk and stupid and…"

"I am speaking!" Ton drew himself up and Walter saw that they were the same height. His little brother was little no more, he was a young man with a slightly more solid build who was defending his family. Walter felt pride as well as sorrow in the moment as he nodded. "You straighten up and fly right. You hear me? You are here to do one thing. One thing! Be the best Walter you can be. Right now … your Walter sucks!"

Walter swallowed, the hurt from those words a surprise as well. Ton taking a moment "Now we hug to show we have both sorted this out. I say I am angry and why. We agree you are a tool and we hug. Did you learn nothing?"

"I learnt that I have to try harder Carlton" Walter said softly "You are right. Walt sucks. Walter needs to get into the game again, leave Walt at the studio."

"Yes" Ton said said he considered "that's right. Walt is the one you are out there. Walter in here. Yes. Don't' mix them up. And go tell Maisey you love her and her stupid Warren. That you would NEVER hurt them."

"Yes Carlton"

Ton walked away and Walter let out his breath, rubbing at his face as he felt the most hurt from the fact that he had disappointed everyone, not just himself. Maisey. And Maisey. Gods. Walter went to check on her while Curtis finished packing the SUV for their journey.

He had to make this right.
