Chapter 3 The Talk and a surprised visit
The next morning everyone woke up looking around as Paige and the two boys were missing looking outside, they saw that both cars were there before looking around in the house only to see the family fast asleep in Walter's bed and he was sleeping on the ground. Leaving the family to sleep and possibly talk if they needed as they walked back down Sean spotted them "Can you fellas help me on the farm for a bit?" queried the man.
"Sure, not like we have anything better to do" Cabe said as he volunteered the team looking at them.
"Cabe, I am a Harvard train psychologist not a farm hand" Toby stated and immediately regretted it as Happy punched him in the gut with obvious anger in her eyes before as she seethed out anger "We will help and so help me Toby if you don't get your act together you can go back to gambling because I will be done with you and the bullshit because Walter saved all of us and what did we do for him we destroyed his heart".
"If you don't straighten up doc my foot will help you and hell maybe it will teach you how to dance also" grinned Cabe as his eyes stared at Toby and if he didn't know better Cabe was looking into his soul. "Sorry, Mr. O'Brien I was out of line I will help too" stated a fearful Toby. "Good, cause the lot of you all hurt my son and this is only the start of you making up to me for hurting my own blood got it" Sean let out as he grinned looking at them knowing he had a lot of projects but hadn't been able to get the proper help and now he has a few extra hands to help him.
Meanwhile, Walter laid on the floor tossing and turning the nightmare started on repeat from the night before Walter stood there helping Mark to keep everyone else safe when he turned around to do his next task the team was there tied up and unable to do anything as Mark slowly pour a slow acting poison to kill them all off painfully. "STOP MARK DON'T HURT THEM PLEASE STOP" he yelled as sweated poured down him like a fountain as Paige and the two boys shot up in an instant and rushed over to him trying to wake him up with no success. Paige ran downstairs looking for the team and was not finding them only saw Louise sitting there as she pointed outside "Is my boy ok" she asked in low heartbroken voice as she didn't know what to do still after all this time for her son. "I honestly don't know it hurts more than I ever thought anything could seeing him like this and unable to wake him up from this nightmare scares me" Paige mustered all the strength she could just to mutter the words out hoping Walter would be ok.
"Did you guys hear that" Toby and Sly asked in unison looking back at the house as the rest of them looked at the two if they had gone crazy when Paige ran out towards them "Walter won't wake up and he is screaming for Mark not to hurt us he needs help" Tears running down her face as she choked it all out. Sean looked up in the split second he saw her, and they all started to run back towards the house.
Back in Russia
Yuri stood there over Mark as he was treated for his broken bones. "Next time you cross me like that I will take your life from you" Yuri stood there staring at him as he calmly stated the fact of taking the man's life as if it meant nothing and was just a small detail in life. Mark sat there only nodding for once he saw the man before him brooding as if hopeful that he might try to test the theory. "Nice to know" was all Mark could mutter before passing.
Ireland 1 hour later
Rizzuto had finally arrived and was enroute to the O'Brien household with a small smile on his face to be able to help the team and family come back together again. He dialed Paige's number letting it ring till she finally answered her phone "I have just landed I can come over now if you want to start or we can wait until tomorrow" Cecil told her in a tone that told her that the team was not going to like how the session was going to go. "We can do it today if Walter wakes up it might help Walter, he has been having a bad dream but and we are trying to get him to wake up from it" Paige choked out to him as she hung up.
Walter sat there with Mark in front of him as his family was laying on the ground dead as Mark laughed at him before standing over the members of his family. "This is all because you left me for those who are inferior to us and this whore stole my spot I could have dealt with the inferior IQ teammates but to replace me with a whore now that was to much so now they all had to pay and now so will you" sneered Collins as he grabbed the family one by one and they would disappear before he came back one last time "Now then you will be like me soon and you will be all alone like me then see if you can still call me crazy" he laughed as he disappeared. Walter's eyes shot open and immediately saw Paige's hazel eyes looking into his telling him it would be ok without any words being said to him while she looked into his beautiful brown eyes as if she was being pulled into an endless hole and in the hole was only pain and fear itself. "Walter, Cecil is coming to give the whole team therapy and maybe he can figure out why you were yelling for Mark to leave you alone Walter because he isn't here its only us and Mark is dead from crossing the Russian mob" Paige said as cooed him and tried to calm him down. Walter looked at her and only nodded as he was hoping she was right and hoping that he could get rid of these nightmares.
Soon after Cecil had finally showed up and saw everyone there and more having never seen the young man's parents. "I know this isn't my home, but could we all grab some couch and we can figure out were to start" he said with his normal sympathetic voice. Walter only stood there staring into the abyss that only his eyes saw when Cecil came up behind him "Walter lets go somewhere private and talk alone for a bit before we do a group session" he said as he pushed Walter outside.
"Walter what's going on you aren't the type of person to just space out" he started remembering the first time he met Walter and Toby for counseling.
"Nothing is wrong I feel fine was just thinking of something" replied a sheepish Walter.
"I know your lying if you don't tell me I can ask someone in there because everyone staying in this house one person had to of heard something that could give me any idea of how to help you personally and then I can help you and the team fix that problem" Cecil told him with concern in his eyes as he stood there looking at him before he opened the door "Anyone hear any outbursts from Walter since you've all been here" he shouted into the house causing Paige and the two kids to run outside.
"Yes, we did when we went to go tell Walter good night and so his son could give him hugs and kisses before going to bed Walter started yelling for Mark to get away from him as if he was trapped back in Russia" Paige quietly told him as she didn't want everyone knowing this had started last night.
"Walter please tell me about this person what were they doing to you" he calmly looked at Walter and motioned for them to walk away so that nobody heard.
"Paige, can you come with please" he murmured as he looked like an injured puppy whose eyes just wanted love and reassurance in them.
"Only if the doc is ok with it and Ralph and Walter Jr. are not coming with us" Paige looked at him with determination in here eyes to help the man she loved so much to get better.
"It is ok but if Walter won't talk still then I will have to make sure Walter cannot leave or see anyone and has no electronic access till he talks to me about why he looked like he saw someone dead in front of him. Walter, do we have a deal?" Cecil asked staring at him.
"Yes" Walter stated defeated as he didn't want to lose everything, but he did not want to describe the dream he had.
After about three hours of walking and Walter recalling all the details of the dream even when he tried to avoid certain parts Cecil was on him about it and reminded him of the deal and the longer and deeper, he went into the dream the more he would squeeze on Paige's hand until he finally let it all out and sat under the tree they just got to crying into Paige's arms.
"Walter thank you I know it wasn't easy but we will get you through this and your team has expressed a deep desire spoken or not to comeback to you to make Scorpion whole again" Cecil stated as he helped Paige walk him back to the house so he could give them a rundown on the exercises they would do as a team to help them fix the problems and become more resilient and gave Paige and Walter an evening exercise to do so that they could strengthen their relationship and help it endure more and help them to be more open before leaving to his hotel for the evening.
-knock knock knock-
Everyone looked up and at each other confused as Sean and Louise both asked "Did you guys bring anyone else".
"No" everyone said in unison before Cabe walked over to the door only to see two people that would only make things worse right now.
"Sean and Louise, its only Tim and Florence both former Scorpion team members I will have them leave so you can relax" Cabe said as he glared at the two people in front of him.
"I am here to see Paige and make sure she is ok and that Walter didn't hurt her" Tim stated in a cocky egotistical voice smirking as he pushed past Cabe only to see Paige laying Walter's head on her chest with Ralph and another kid by them.
"I am here to help Walter because I still have feelings for him" Florence said as she also walked past Cabe only two see the two curled up next to each other with Ralph and a kid next to them.
"What the hell are you two doing here go away and leave my mom and dad alone" Ralph spat at them as everyone turned to see Tim and Florence there just as they left. "Ralph watch your language" Paige scolded him for what seemed like the millionth time only to have him glare at her.
"I want Paige back" Tim told Florence as they walked to the cars they took "I want Walter" she replied, and they hopped in the cars after giving each other there room numbers and left planning to destroy them and claim the people they wanted as their own.
