The Things I Do For You
Summary: In an AU world, Ethan survives. In an AU world... Well, you'll have to read and find out! Very Charlie Liam angst. Rated T for violence.
Remember, this is an AU universe. I know it doesn't happen!
Chapter 2: Liam
"Daddy?" Megan's plaintive voice hit me in the dark.
"I'm here, Megan." I reached out a hand and took her tiny one between mine.
"Are you scared?" It's not a good idea to lie when Megan's around.
"Yes, Megan. Very scared."
"Don't be scared Daddy. I'm here!" I grinned, even though she couldn't see it in the dark.
A door opened and Megan and I flinched at the light. I saw a face I thought I recognised. It made me very scared.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't Liam Pace. The junkie's brother."
"Ethan Rom. What a pleasure." I said, glaring at him.
"Not at all. I delight in entertaining your family. Your brother's quite a character, by the way."
"If you've touched him -" I growled.
"I only hung him from a tree. Relax." Ethan's face split into a wider grin. I gave a roar of anger and split the rope that tied me. I launched myself at him. Ethan didn't miss a trick. He grabbed Megan and placed the gun to her forehead. I froze. "I thought that would get your attention." he chuckled.
"Leave her alone! She's done nothing to you!"
"I'm bored. And you know what I like to do when I get bored, don't you?"
"If you dare touch her, I'll kill you!" Things were getting rapidly out of control.
"My my, you do have a good brain in there, don't you? How did you guess?" Ethan smirked even more. Megan squirmed.
"Daddy!" She screamed. I turned to Ethan.
"Ok, what do I do?" He grinned. And told me.
I didn't like it one bit.
R&R!
