A/N TRIGGER WARNING- Homophobic character in this Chapter.


The sound of Tim's voice filled the garage.

"Ralph how are you? Listen I need you to get your mum to call me back as soon as she's able"

"Ralph my little man. I need your mum to call me about a work thing-its urgent!"

"Hey Ralphy how about you pop round to my apartment and we can play some video games yeah? Give me a call back soon... just don't tell anyone though yeah? It'll be our little secret"

*drunkenly* "Rlph ya littl shi-t ANSR T PHONE!!"

"I thought it prudent to bring this to your attention" said Ralph. Toby nodded "Ralph you did the right thing telling us." Toby praised. Meanwhile Happy was pacing behind him "I'll kill him, I'll kill him, I'll kill him" she muttered over and over.

"Now the important thing to do is to not panic" Toby stated calmly in what Paige had dubbed his 'therapy voice'. Happy stood in front of Toby "Ooo I'll make that Timothy panic you can bet on it!" She snarled slamming her hands on her workbench. Toby put his hands on her shoulders "Happy you need to calm down" he advised. "Calm down?! He blatantly wants to kidnap the kid!! What do you exspect me to do? Dance?? He's getting a hammer to the throat!"

"I've got an idea that doesn't require Happy risking prison time" Said Ralph. "I'm listening" said Toby intrigued. "Phone Walter. Tell him that I'm really upset that I couldn't come to Ireland and miss him and mum terribly. Its the start of the school holidays from tommorow I know he'll extend his visit and let me come- then I'll be far away from Tim and I'll have Cabe there. All without worrying my mum". Toby nodded "Kid that's genius!" Toby exclaimed before pausing "You best be the one to call Walter though- you've got him wrapped round your finger" he said thoughtfully.

While Ralph called Walter Toby emailed Agent Gallo. It was best that someone was aware of the situation. Cabe was understandably pissed- until his reaction to his recent break up with Paige he'd thought highly of the younger man and was blaming himself for pushing Tim onto Walter and Scorpion.


O'Brien Farm

"I appreciate that Katharine thank you" Cabe finished putting the phone down. He was suprised to see Sean leaning against the wall behind him when the call finished. "I hear we are getting a extra visitor" Sean stated "Seems that way yeah" replied Cabe. "Does the girl know the real reason he's coming?" Sean enquired. "No and nor does Walter. I'd like to keep it that way if I can. No sense in worrying the pair of them. Mr Armstrong will be over 5000 miles away and has for now been labled as a threat- he won't be able to catch a plane to follow the boy anytime soon. It'll give us about 6 weeks for Tim to calm down and move on. if he doesn't- well we'll cross that bridge if and when it comes to it" Cabe finished. Sean nodded in reply "Still I'll keep a extra close eye on the lad all the same." Sean decided "Now I dunno about you but I can do with another cuppa tea" he finished.


Next door

Thomas frowned as he pulled off his socks and shoes. 'Another pair ruined' he thought to himself frowning. He threw his now destroyed shoes in the bin and flung the mud covered socks towards the washing pile. He trudged over to his sock drawer and opened it, only to find there was no more thick socks there. Rolling his eyes he walked over to his Brother's room. He was sure he wouldn't mind if he borrowed a pair. Opening up Conners sock drawer he rifled around until he found what he was looking for- a nice thick pair of blister socks. Picking them up he was suprised to see some newspaper clippings in a plastic wallet underneath where the socks had been. Grinning at the thought it might be some topless women from page 3 of the sun or the daily star Thomas opened up the wallet excited at what treasures it held within. What he saw inside made him feel ill.

Thats when Conner appeared behind him.

"You're fucking sick!" He shouted at the other man "This-this is bloody unnatural! and to make it worse it's that- that thing next door!"

Conners shoulders slumped and he looked down at the floor as Thomas continued to shout at him "You dont understand" he whispered flinching as Thomas began another barrage of abuse towards him "You're damn right I dont- I'm not gone in the head like you! I thought he was weird but he's at least shagging a decent looking bird!" before he started mocking him "Do you think he's gunna want something as disgusting as you when he's got that fine piece of ass next door? I wonder what he'll think when I tell him? I bet he'll be as sick as I am when he finds out you've been jacking it off to his pictures." Conner paled in fear "Please don't! Thomas I'm begging you" he implored "I'll do anything"

Thomas's face turned cold "Pack your things and get out! I won't have a woofter for a brother" he snarled before stamping out the room and slamming the door.

Conner feel to his knees breaking down. After picking up the pictures from the floor he clutched them to his chest. He'd never felt so alone.
