Previously:

"You're right. Im sorry Mike, i should have gotten all the facts straight before i yelled at you." Stef apologised, walking over and placing a hand on his shoulder. He really was a good dad and Uncle.

"Its alright. Does this mean I can still take the boys and Rylan out another time?" Mike asked hopefully.

Stef looked around at the boys faces. They all looked hopeful and she didn't want to tare their bonding experiences up. She looked at Lena and the little girl Crying into her wifes shoulder, Stef knew that she couldn't keep Rylan from hanging with her brothers and Uncle Mike. It wouldn't be fair.

"Yes Mike, it does." Cheers went around the room, Mike hugged Stef and Stef even hugged him back.

All the boys cheering, even Lena got Rylan too cheer, the little girl not as sad as before. She could still hang out with her brothers and Uncle Mike, that was awesome.

With the Thursday drama behind them, Friday finally came along. Everyone was packing their bags and the cars with everything but the things they would need for the night and Saturday morning.

"Hey mom, are we packing the cooler today or tomorrow?" Callie asked as she walked out of the house and to the car carrying a large plastic container which had their camping kitchen gear.

Stef looked up from where she was at the car going through the list that they had written so they didn't forget anything. With 6 kids and two adults, it was a necessity to right a list.

"Callie!" Stef yelled as she caught sight of her daughter carrying a large container.

"What?" Callie asked, seeing what her moms problem was. Stef rushed up to the teen and grabbed the container off her. Callie looked confused at her Mom.

"What are you doing? You can rip your stitches." Stef said as she placed the container on the back seat of Lenas car before turning to the teen. Callie rolled her eyes, her moms were so over protective.

"Mom, its not that heavy." Callie complained, crossing her arms and giving her mom a stare down. Stef raised her eye brow at her teenage daughters posture.

"I don't care. You need to be more careful. The last thing you need is to have your wound restitched." Callie sighed, her mom was right but she didn't want to feel useless and an invalid.

"But I want to help, mama asked me to help." Callie explained. Stef moved forward and placed her hands on the teens shoulders so she could look the teen clearly in the eyes.

"You can, just not heavy stuff." Stef knew how Callie was feeling, she had been in the same position not long ago.

"Fine." Callie sighed out knowing she wasn't going to win the argument, maybe she could have with her Mama but with her Mom, no chance.

"I can't wait to get these stitches out, then I can go back to being really independent." Callie mumbled but Stef heard her and chuckled.

"Well until then, you have your moms on your back." Callie sighed out and rolled her eyes as her mom chuckled and gave the teen a hug before she went back to marking off the things on the list.

"Mmhmmmm."

"Go get the sleeping bags" Stef called, seeing it was on the list but wasn't packed.

"Aye aye captain." Callie did a salute as her mom looked at her. Stef raised her eyebrow and stuck a hand on her hip.

"Watch it Callie Q." Callie poked her tongue out at her mom with a big smile.

"So immature." Stef said before poking her tongue out at her daughter.

"Really and you're calling me immature." Stef and Callie chuckled at each other. Their bond was so unique and fun that not many people had their kind of bond, Add Rylan to the mix and it was a strong and unique as ever.

"Stef, your work phone is ringing" Lean called from the porch, holding Stefs ringing phone.

"Coming love." Stef called back as she closed the doors of the cars and locked them up while they went inside.

"Lets go Callie Q." Stef wrapped an arm around the teens shoulder and they headed into the house.

xxxxxxxxx

Stef had answered her phone and answered what she needed to answer before helping Lena in the kitchen make sandwiches and a fruit platter for lunch.

"Im just taking this bedding out Mom, its light." Callie smirked as she entered the kitchen carrying the sleeping bags. Stef turned and gave Callie a raised eyebrow.

"Ha ha, quit being a smart ass." Callie chuckled at her mom, grabbed the keys to her Mamas car and headed out of the house to put the bedding in.

"Stef, Language." Lena scolded. Stef chuckled and continued to butter bread for the sandwiches.

Callie placed the bedding in the back seat of her Mamas car, locked the car back up and headed back into the house.

"MOM." Callie screamed in fright after coming eye to eye with a note pinned to the door with a bloody knife.

"What? What is it?" Stef and Lena were startled at Callies yell. They both stopped what they were doing and ran to see what was wrong. Even the others all ran to see what had Callie screaming.

Both moms paled at the sight in front of them. Another note, with a blood covered knife.

Do not underestimate me!

The police cant even find me

Im still coming for her

I will be watching

Im always watching.

"Stef call the crime scene guys and then call forensics guys again." Lena eventually said after she got to action, they needed to get this sorted and solved fast so they could stop living in fear. All the kids, pale at the sight of it. Jesus wrapped a protective arm around Mariana, Jude moved closer to Callie and Lena picked Rylan up. One of their girls was being stalked and they didn't know which one.

"Already on it love." Stef spoke, the phone already at her ear.

"Do, Do you th..think its the same person who wrote the other one?" Mariana asked hugging Jesus closer to her for protection. She felt exposed after reading the note. At Marianas sentence Callie looked at her moms confused, her eyebrow raised waiting for an explanation.

"What other one?" Callie asked waiting for an answer. Lena sighed and looked to Stef who was on the phone. Stef nodded, indicating that Callie can now know.

"When you were in hospital and we got back from therapy, there was a note stuck to our door in the exact same way as this one. The forensics are analysing it as we speak and this one will be added to it." Lena said, her left hand running up and down Rylan back as she clung tighter to her Mama.

All the girls were scared, the moms were frightened and tense and the boys were angry. This note affected them all in some way, each feeling different towards the note then the next person.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Callie asked a little mad that she was left out of the loop. Lena sighed and looked at the teen.

"We wanted you to get yourself well first and get the trial over with, it was one less thing you had to worry about." Lena explained as Stef walked over after having talked to the crime scene guys and forensic guys.

"I get it, im just a bit mad that I wasn't aware of the threat. Does it say who they are after?" Callie asked as they all looked at the note, everyone trying to figure out if there was a code in there somewhere to tell them who they were after.

"We just wanted you to worry about getting well. We are sorry sweets." Stef hugged Callie and Kissed her temple. They should have told her but they have no regrets of holding it back.

"Who are they after?" Callie asked again, looking from her Mom to her Mama.

"The notes don't say. All we know is it could be you, Mari or Rylan." Lena spoke up, hugging Rylan closer to her chest, Jesus tightening his hold on Mariana and Jude sticking to Callies side as she wrapped an arm around his shoulder.

"Why not you or Mama? It says 'her', so it could be you or Mama aswell." Callie spoke. Both moms looked at each other. Callie was right, they had been thinking it was about the kids but it could be one of them they were after.

"Shes right Stef. It could be one of us as well." Lena looked at Stef, frightened. She didn't want any of her family in danger but right now every single female in their home was in danger and that didn't sit well with anyone.

"No one is going anywhere, and no one is being taken if I have my way." Jesus said, anger lacing his tone.

"Jesus calm down." Mariana spoke, hugging her brother tightly. The last thing they needed was a hot headed Jesus doing something that he was going to regret.

"No, someone is after one of my moms or one of my sisters and there is nothing I can do about it." Jesus was getting more angrier but he never released his hold on his sister. He would protect his sisters and moms if he needed to. No one was going to destroy his family and get away with it.

"I know Bud but we have to let the experts take charge." Stef explained putting a hand on the teenagers shoulders in thanks. He really was protective, even from a young age they learned that.

"This blows. I want these people caught before they touch my family." Jesus said, his anger easing , realising he had no where to start looking for the person or people responsible.

"We know, we just have to stick together until this is all sorted and the person behind the notes is locked up." Stef explained looking at the whole family. Each nodding from their spots in the entrance.

"What did the crime scene guys and forensic guys say?" Callie asked looking at her moms as they all headed into the living room, the note making them feel more on edge then every by just being there. Hopefully without it in sight the kids would feel a little less tense.

"The crime scene guys and my captain are on their way and the forensic people say that there is a back up in the lab and so the evidence is in the queue." Stef explained as Rylan crawled onto her lap and snuggled in. Lena sat beside Stef on the sofa while the other kids just spread around the living room, listening to what their mother had to say.

"So we are suppose to wait how long? Weeks? Months? Year? What if they come before they analyse the evidence? What If one of you is taken? There has to be more we can do." Brandon said looking at his mom seriously, his brain working in overload to think of a way to help and move the process a long.

"The only thing we can do is wait and stick together, which mean no going off alone, always stick in a group of three or more." Stef explained, kissing Rylans head as she looked at the other kids. All of them nodding in understanding.

"Ok mom." Brandon spoke nodding. He couldn't think of any way, so he just had to let the professionals handle it.

"Everyone ok with that?" Lena asked as she stood up. The kids all looking at each other before Brandon spoke for them.

"Yeah."

"Alright, lets go finish packing the car , have lunch and then you two girls have to go get ready for your dates." Stef explained as she stood up and settled Rylan on her hip as the others all stood up as well, all ready to get things done and to keep their minds off of the note and blood covered knife for now.

"Mommy, im hungry." Rylan spoke up causing a few chuckles around the room. She was usually a tension breaker and they were thankful for that.

"We are making lunch now baby." Stef and Lena smiled at the little girl and headed into the kitchen to finish the sandwiches while they waited for the crime scene guys and Stefs Captain to come over.

"Ok." Rylan sighed out as she was carried into the kitchen. She really was hungry.
