*Note: I don't exactly know what the song naked eyes is saying, but I think
I figured out one part of the lyrics. I'm not 100 % sure of anything, so
let's just pretend that's what the song says for now, lol. Oh and by the
way, in my story Eve never died ( *
Rafe tapped his fingers on the steering wheel of his car. There was a huge line of cars waiting to get on the exit ramp to Port Charles, and he was one of them. It was almost five and he was starving. He couldn't wait to get home to eat another one of Alison's meals. They were just so good!
"Well as long as I'm just sitting here in traffic, might as well put on some tunes." He fumbled with the radio controls and finally settled on a radio station. The radio announcer came on to announce the next song, "And now everyone, here's the latest from the Stephen Clay Experience. It's called 'Naked Eyes'. Hope you all enjoy it." The song's eerie lyrics started to fill Rafe's car.
"The world through naked eyes......."
Rafe groaned and shut off the radio. "If I hear that song one more time, I swear I'm going to go down and tell the radio station to personally shut it off." The traffic finally cleared and Rafe was home within minutes. He walked into the door to the aroma of fresh spaghetti.
"I'm home, and let me tell you, I am starving!" Rafe yelled as he walked in.
Alison looked up from the magazine she was reading and smiled. "Hey sweetie."
"Hi angel."
Ed looked up from his plate of spaghetti. "Hey daddy!"
"Hey kiddo." He picked his son out of the chair to give him a hug. "How was your day at school?"
"It was great! Guess what? Mrs. Smith said that I'm gonna be an artist when I grow up! Look at the picture I made." Ed ran to the refrigerator where Alison had hung up his picture of the family. It wasn't exactly like Van Gough or anything, but the five year old definitely had potential.
"What a nice picture! We'll have to get a frame for this and hang it in the living room so everyone can see when they come over. So, did you finish all of your dinner?"
"Yep, sure did."
"Good, because I'm taking you and mommy out for some ice cream just as soon as I'm done with dinner."
"Ok! Can I go play over Danny's house until we're ready to go?" Ed had been friends with Ian's son Danny since they were walking basically.
"Sure. And you can invite Danny, Ian, and Eve to come too if they'd like. I'll call over there to let you know when I'm ready. "
Ed grabbed his baseball mitt since both him and Danny liked to play baseball and then Rafe walked him down the street. As soon as he got back into the house, he noticed something was wrong with Alison.
"What's wrong, angel?"
Alison sighed and closed her magazine. "Oh Rafe, where do I start? First my mother comes here with my father's will."
"Elizabeth came here? Oh great." Rafe didn't like her mom at all, since Elizabeth basically ignored Alison her whole life.
"Yeah, exactly what I was thinking. So then she tells me that I get half of my father's estate. You'll never guess who gets the other half."
"Who, her?"
"No, my half brother."
Rafe stared at her for a minute. "Say that again?"
"My half brother. Apparently my father had an affair with some woman right before I was born and my mother didn't know about it until now. Apparently my grandmother did though. She knows that he had another son, but she has no clue who it is really. Great of her to tell me, huh?"
"Wow. I can't believe it."
"Neither can I. It's like something out of a movie."
Alison continued to vent to Rafe as he was eating his dinner. When he was finished, he put an arm around his wife and gave her a sweet kiss. "Listen Alison, I will help you find your brother no matter what. We'll travel as far as we have to go, make as many calls as we have to, and search the internet as long as we have to until we find him."
Alison's face lit up and she gave Rafe a big hug. "Oh thank you so much! You know, you're such an angel." They both laughed at her joke. They decided when Ed was born that one day they would tell him the great love story of his parents, but only when he was mature enough to handle it.
Rafe glanced at the clock. "Well, I think we better go if we want to get to the ice cream place before it's time for Ed to go to bed. Hey, how about that? I made a rhyme!" Alison rolled her eyes behind his back and held back from laughing. Sometimes he was so corny, but she loved him anyway.
Ian, Eve, and Danny joined them. They decided to eat their ice cream outside since it was such a nice day outside. Ed and Danny quickly finished their ice cream and were soon playing frisbee. Alison and Eve were sitting at a separate table having their weekly "girl talk", as Alison called it. Rafe decided that now would be a good time to tell Ian the weird feeling he had been getting.
"You know, I've been getting this weird vibe lately."
"Weird vibe? What do you mean by that Rafe?"
"I don't know what it is, but I can sense something. I really can. Maybe it's my slayer instincts or something, but I don't know. You heard of the Stephen Clay Experience, right?"
"Yeah, that new band. I heard their song."
"Yeah well, something tells me something isn't right with them. It's just that song. It gives off this eerie feeling."
Ian nodded. "That's the same feeling I got. Do you think it's happening again? Another strange force headed to Port Charles?"
Rafe laughed a little in spite of the conversation. "Yeah, and I think it's already here."
Rafe tapped his fingers on the steering wheel of his car. There was a huge line of cars waiting to get on the exit ramp to Port Charles, and he was one of them. It was almost five and he was starving. He couldn't wait to get home to eat another one of Alison's meals. They were just so good!
