"Go."
"He's here."
"Mobilised. Leave me on speaker."
"Done."
The mysterious speaker slots the phone back in to their pocket ensuring the BIA could hear every word of what was going on.
"Well, well, well no greetings from any of you?"
Peter stands smirking as his father takes the centre of the floor waiting for someone to move or say something.
Peter sidles up to Jess. Jess stands and begins to try and edge away from him. Peter grabs Jess' hand and Jess tries to pull away. Peter grabs on tighter. As he holds her wrists he turns to put his hands on her stomach. Jess shudders.
"Take your hand off my babies. NOW."
"They're mine as well."
"Take your fucking hands off my fiancé and my babies." Mavericks voice booms out as he ran in to the bar not even waiting for Tom to pull over.
"Fiancé? Just yesterday she was married to me" Peter sneers
"Yes that may be so but you hadn't had sex with her in twenty-two months so explain to me how MY twins and MY quads are yours?"
Reading Maverick's body language so expertly like she always had she strategically place her arm across Mav's stomach. Inwardly smirking to herself about the six pack under Mav's t-shirt Jess refocuses on the task in hand.
"Didn't your little wannabe wife tell you? Come on Jess keeping secrets?"
"Yes the secret that has kept your life for the last twenty-one and a half months safe from the BIA but you know what to hell with it now. Do me a favour Peter read this piece of paper. Read it aloud."
"Paternity test of Alexander Mills. This DNA test shows the probability of the father being Peter Mills is 0%." Cheers go up inside Molly's. Everyone quietens as Jess hands Peter a second piece of paper.
"Now this one please."
"Paternity test of Eliza Mills. This DNA test shows the probability of the father being Peter Mills is 0%."
"What does that mean genius? Seeing as you think you know everything. Your little rape didn't work. Twenty-one and a half months I've kept your secret. No more. I'm free of you. Completely. Now if you don't mind I'd like to get back to celebrating my twins birthday and my engagement to the man that has had my heart for the last four nearly five years. And if I were you I would watch your back."
"How did he have your heart nearly five years ago when you didn't even know him then?"
"Actually that's not quite true. Maverick and I were stationed together in Afghanistan and we loved each other back then and that never changed. You were just a deflection from the truth. Now back up out of my face before I do some serious damage."
"You fucking what? He raped you? Nobody gets away with that!"
Right on cue Jess removes her hand like a police officer releasing her hound to seek out the convict.
Uproar in the form of Maverick literally flew through the air landing a round house kick on Peter. The twins and TT stood watching their brother act on instinct to protect his family. A side of Maverick that only Mallory and Jay had witnessed before, once in the NAAFI back in Afghanistan, when someone had made a snide comment about Jess and her losing her baby. Their baby. And now Maverick had a lot more to lose. His beautiful fiancé. His twins and his quads. Jay began to take a step towards Maverick. Jay knew what was coming next. Tom put his hand up. Jay upon heeding the warning stood down just as he always did when given an order from a superior officer. Jay turned his head and saw Naomi fighting her way through to get to Jess before something happened in the middle to Jess and the quads. Jay sprinted across the room. In slow motion he saw it happen before everyone else could get to her. Naomi knocked Jess out of the way and Naomi took the punch to her jaw knocking her to the floor. Kelly caught Jess on her way down but was powerless to stop Naomi from falling despite his attempt. Jay quickly dropped to his knees beside his wife. Henry Mills had unseen gotten across the room and was throwing a punch to Maverick and Jess with her military instincts kicking in to protect stepped in front however Naomi was quicker especially with Jess carrying four extra babies and moving in slow motion. Naomi had pushed her away towards Kelly knowing he would catch her and sacrificed herself in order to take the hit. Jay saw Henry Mills being escorted away by Tom and Chris and he knew things were up a level. The SJ had already arrived and were in hiding. Peter had started to come round on the floor but on seeing this Maverick stuck the boot in and knocked him unconscious again. Stella rushed over passing Linea to Kelly to deal with her sister in law on the floor. Herrmann had already rung the ambulance. Naomi laid motionless on the floor.
"Naomi are you ok. Princess talk to me. Oh god not again. Baby girl come back to me." Jay was weeping over his wife at this point and Hank stood forward to comfort him. Jay shrugged his hand off and focused on his wife.
Hank stood back and nodded. Intelligence left Molly's and split up all heading to the same place. The BIA holding pen.
The second shift on 61 had arrived. Scofield and Burrows arrived and saw their fellow medical colleague on the floor and headed to her first. Jay was freaking out trying to relay all the information back to the paramedics about her current situation.
"Ah there we go. Naomi are you ok? How many fingers can you see?"
"I can see two and they're mine now you Mr Hatter and Cheshire cat can fuck off out my face."
The crowd giggled but Stella having recently done her Paramedic exam knew these signs were concerning.
Burrows tried to engage Naomi in conversation.
"What's your name?"
"Alice."
"What day is it today?"
"Tea Party day."
Stella becoming ever increasingly worried about her sister in law pulled her brother in law to one side and told him she was concerned. When asked why she explained that delusions of this grandeur were signs of an internal head injury and Naomi needed to be in the Emergency department now.
"Scoop and run Scofield we need to go now."
Jay followed the stretcher being wheeled out to the waiting vehicle.
This scene took him back to a fortnight ago when he saw his sister in law being rushed in to the maternity department. Jay sat holding Naomi's hand.
Naomi stirred. She shook Jays hand off of her own.
"Why the fuck is the leader of the Scorpions sat holding my hand when he wants to kill me and take my gang. Look he has an axe. Quick call the T-Birds. Kenickie…. Putsie… Doody… Sonny… Where the hell are they?"
Jay smiles and again tries to take his wife's hand to try to reassure her but again shrugs it away.
He whimpers at the rejection from his wife and watches Burrows working on her trying to monitor her vital signs even though Naomi was making things extremely hard.
Jay pulled his phone from his pocket for an update.
Two familiar figures stood waiting for Naomi as she entered the emergency room followed by Jay. On arriving Will pulled Jay to one side.
"You can't do anything else here now bro go and be with your son. There's a rumour that Patrick has left Isaac on his own."
"What the fuck I'm going to kill him"
"Brother calm that temper for all I know he went for a coffee but I do know that Mary P was in here looking for him earlier."
"Then why haven't you told me until now?"
"Jay in case you haven't noticed the emergency room is full to the brim tonight my life revolves around my work and right now your wife needs me."
Will walks away to deal with Naomi. Jay stands for a second trying to collect his thoughts. He then walks to the NICU to see his son. Jay sees Mouch walking on to the unit. Mary P sees Mouch and pulls him to one side not noticing Jay standing to one side in the alcove.
"Mouch thank god you are here. Isaac has been on his own for nearly two hours and I have no idea why. I think Jay and Naomi have enough to worry about with the current situation in the family without having to worry about whether someone from the family has their eyes on their son. They were supposed to be back at twelve am. Patrick went out at twelve am to grab a coffee to wait in case Jay and Naomi were late back but he went to the coffee shop where he was seen at 1202am and hasn't been seen since."
"So Mary you are telling me that Patrick, a fully grown man, who was supposed to be watching my grandson has gone missing even though he knew how perilous it was to leave him alone."
"Yes Mouch that is exactly what I am telling you."
"Oh my fucking god could this day get any worst?"
They had no idea how bad it was going to get. And they hadn't even seen the start of how bad the day was going to get for certain individuals.
What no one had counted on was the day was about to roll in to the next and the next with no one being aware of what it was going to have in store.
