One week, ten hours, fifty minutes and twenty seconds later, Jack shot up from the bed in a cold sweat. Kate stirred beside him and sat up, rubbing her eyes. "Hun whats wrong ?" she asked stroking a hand over his chest.

"Bad dream is all," he smiled at her, taking her hand in his and giving it a sqeeze.

"It's almost 11," Kate yawned, looking over at the clock and Jack stretched.

"What day is it ?" Jack asked, his sleep addled brain unable to process much information.

"Saturday," Kate smiled softly and her lovers forgetfulness.

"How about we get dressed and I take you shopping ?" Jack kissed her forehead.

"Okay !" Kate said excitedly and ran into the bathroom. Jack chuckled.

They ate their breakfast with a round of playfull banter and Jack ended up with jam on his nose and an insanly giggling Kate on the floor. Kate's giggles subsided and she kissed the jam from his nose and he gave her a playfull smack on the ass. A knock came to the door, breaking apart a makeout session. Jack sighed. "Well it's not Chloe and Seann cause they don't knock," he smirked and they went to the door. Jack opened it and he froze. His mind went blank and his jaw went slack, unable to register what was going on. Kate noticed Jack's speechlessness at the people who stood infront of them.

"Jack who are these people ?" she asked him and Jack shook his head.

"WE are his parents. Who are you ?" the woman asked in a very snotty voice.

"Mom ? Dad ?" Jack said in awe.

"Yep son we're back," the man who Kate assumed to be his father spoke. Margot pushed past Kate and into her house dropping her bags down on the floor and Chritian followed suit.

"Well you obviously haven't been keeping this place tidy," Margot said running her finger over the table and grimacing. Jack's voice came back suddenly.

"Hi mom nice to see you too after five years. How have you been ?" he said sarcastically.

"Don't talk to your mother that way," Jack's father snapped at him and Jack glowered at him.

"Who's she ?" Margot said pointing at Kate and giving her the ' I'm richer and better than you' look.

Jack's attention snapped back to her. "This is Kate. My girlfriend and the love of my life," he growled. "Not to mention she lives here."

"Well not anymore. You can move out now," Margot said.

"What ?" Kate sqeeked in outrage.

"She's not going anywhere," Jack growled.

"My Jack you certainly have gotten a strong will power," Christian stated.

"You know my name ? My God !" Jack gasped.

"Don't be sarcastic boy," Margot said giving him the once over. "Of course we know your name, we raised you."

"No I raised myself. You didn't even notice me until you were drunk and then all I got was a fucking beating or the occasional bottle thrown at me," Jack said in disgust.

Kate gasped. She didn't know Jack had to go through that. He never said much about his past and Kate just figured he'd been a normal boy with loving parents.

"Keep talking like that and you'll be looking at the back of my hand," Christian yelled, taking a threatening step towards Jack. "You obviously didn't raise yourself very well boy. Your a waste of space. Always have been, always will be. We should have drowned you at birth. We didn't want you and I wish you had never have been born !" he shouted. Jack stopped. He seemed to withdraw into himself and all Kate now saw was a scared beaten little boy, instead of her strong willed, brave hero.

"Jack ?" she asked softly and no reply came. "Jack ? Baby ?" she tried again and he looked at her tears in his eyes. He seemed to crumble into nothing but a shadow and his parents stepped back, seemingly happy with what they had acheived.

"Well, well, well," Chloe's voice came from the open doorway. They all looked around. Chloe surveyed the scene and her eye's landed on Jack's withdrawn stance. It had been a long time since she had seen him like that. "If it isn't Maggot and Antman. I was hoping you'd get eaten by cannibals in Africa but then I remembered. Cannibals go for taste," she smirked. Kate giggled and Margot's head snapped around.

"What are you laughing at you little whore ?" she spat.

"DON'T YOU EVER TALK TO HER LIKE THAT AGAIN !" Jack roared at her, taking a step forward. "Get the fuck out of my house," he growled.

"It's not your,"

"FUCK OFF," he yelled and they quickly gathered their bags, leaving the house. Jack's anger seemed to control him and he looked for something to hit. He spun round and brought his fist crashing into the wall, leaving a large piece of chipped plaster. He kept punching and punching, tears streaming down his face, until Kate caught his hands and he slid down the wall sobbing.

"Jack, stop sweetie," she whispered and cupped his face in her hands, kissing his tears away. Chloe excused herself and they were left alone. "Why didn't you tell me baby ? Why ?" Kate said softly, stroking his stubble.

"I don't know," Jack said wiping his eyes with the back of his hand. "I'm sorry," he said and pulled Kate into his lap, hugging her close to him. He kissed her neck and Kate smiled softly.

"You have nothing to be sorry for," she whispered and she hugged him tight. She nuzzeled his neck softly and felt his sobbing subside.

A/N: Mwahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Um well ignore that heh heh. Jack's mommy and daddy came back. Grins evily Right now I'm working on a one shot and I need advice. Smutty or not smutty ?
