Chapter 8:

Dean walked back into his younger brother's room "So…I'll see you tonight. Call if you need anything"

"Yeah…I will. Thank bro" Chase said smiling before he started to close his eyes

"Gotta look out for my younger brother, don't I?" Dean mumbled as he walked out of Chase's room. He picked up his car keys and wallet of the bench and placed them in his back pocket. He walked out and started his car, and made his way to the station, getting to work early for once.

"It's okay babe, it'll pass soon" Jordan said as Heidi sat in his lap next to the toilet. Jordan was running his fingers through her fiery red hair. Heidi's face was pale and her eyes had dark circles under them, from the lack of sleep she had been receiving.

"Vince is going to kill us, where going to be late" Heidi said slowly as she felt the need to throw up again. Screw morning sickness, this is all day sickness. I don't think I can cope with it

"Hey…Vince won't care were late, when I say you were sick all morning" Jordan said. He gave her a kiss on her forehead and a hug as he cradled her in his arms as they sat on the cold bathroom tiles. After an hour Heidi, felt like she could finally get up. After having a hot shower, they made their way to work.

(…)

"Why are you two late?" Vince asked annoyed at their late presence

"I had morning sickness, sorry Vince" Heidi quietly said as Jordan placed his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him

"Are you okay to work?" Vince asked now concerned

Heidi nodded her head and gave a smile to Vince "Yeah…I'm fine now". Jordan walked her to her desk, which was just beside his and gave her a kiss on her forehead before grabbing a seat on his chair.

A loud sound of knocking and bashing came from outside the front door of the Gallagher household, which woke a sick Chase up. Moaning he got out of his head, still half a sleep and made his way to the front door.

"Yeah yeah, I'm coming" Chase mumbled as the knocking continued. He opened the door and saw his middle brother standing at the front door unimpressed

"What are you doing out of bed?" Lachie asked annoyed

"You were knocking..?" Chase said shaking his head in disbelief before hugging his brother and ushering him inside.

"Go back to bed…now" Lachie ordered concerned about his younger brother

"Yeah…We'll hello to you too" Chase grunted and walked off to his bedroom

"If Dean knew you were out of bed he'd be pretty angry" Lachie said as he entered his younger brothers room

"You were at the door, bashing on the door. If I didn't come soon you would have broken it" Chase defended not wanting to start a fight

"I'm only joking around Chase" Lachie laughed "You're still the same Chase I remember"

"Yeah…It's been what ten years?" Chase asked annoyed that his brother left it so long to come back and see them

"Yeah well. I've been busy" Lachie snarled back

"Yeah busy doing what, making out with your wife that I didn't know about?" Chase asked glaring at Lachie who was sitting on chair beside him

"You know what Chase, you're the exact same as when I left you alone when you were young. You never forgave me for leaving, but yet it's fine for Dean when he left-.." Lachie was defending himself before Chase rudely cut him off

"That's because Dean didn't just wake up one morning and write a note leaving me. He planned it, he made sure that you were going to be there for me. I was 12 Lachie, and you just wrote a note saying you left without even saying goodbye. Do you know what it was like coming home from school to a lonely household because Dad was out drinking or he was with some new girl every day? I use to have to make my own dinner, Lachie. Then I used to get bullied at school, I had no one to protect me. Dean was gone, and you were gone and wouldn't answer my calls. Dean had to drive from his university campus and get a job and rent a house so I had somewhere decent to live. Then I find out from Dean that you have a wife. You couldn't even be bothered to tell me" Chase told his brother angered

"Chase…I didn't know" Lachie interrupted

"No, you didn't know because we didn't tell you because you were never here. Yeah so you came back for one night last year? And I didn't even get to see you…I'll talk to you later, I'm tired. Go see Dean" Chase snarled before he closed his eyes and began to fall asleep. Lachie sighed and got up closing the door behind him, he got into his car and started driving down the street. The place was a little familiar although Lachie lost his bearings several times before he pulled up outside the Rescue Head Quarters. He hopped out of his car and locked it before he walked up the short pathway that had a patrol car out the front. A red haired women and a blonde were washing down the cars.

"Uh...I'm looking for Dean Gallagher" Lachie said as he stood in front of the women.

"Ah yes. His upstairs. If you go through those doors and walk up the stairs you'll see him sitting around some computers" Lara explained as she pointed in the direction of the door. Lachie smiled and nodded in acknowledgment and headed towards the doors. He walked up the stairs and locked eyes with Dean who looked up in surprise at his younger brother standing there

"Lachie" Dean said shocked as he got up from his chair and made his way over to his brother

"Thought…I'd come back earlier…." Lachie said, not acting like himself

"Ah…Okay…Is everything okay?" Dean asked concerned. He grabbed his brother's arm and led him into the change rooms "What's up?" Dean asked as he took a seat next to his brother

"I went to your house first…Chase, his still pretty pissed off at me after all these years" Lachie said rubbing his head anxiously

"Yeah…we'll that was figured. But something else is wrong, what's going on Lachie, why are you really here?"

Lachie sighed "I lost my job and Lacie died" His hands began to shake and he could feel he was about to break down all over again

"Oh my god. Lachie" Dean became concerned and placed his hand on his younger brothers back for comfort. "What…what happened?"

Lachie shook his head, hoping for the tears to go away "We...we were in a car crash" Lachie took a deep breath "Her injuries were too severe, she died that afternoon. I didn't even know, I was unconscious…Lacie…She was uh. Pregnant." Lachie's voice trembled

"I'm so sorry Lachie. You should have told me…Were you hurt?" Dean asked concerned

Lachie shook his head "Only…a concussion and a fractured wrist..."

"Why didn't you tell me?" Dean asked

"Because you didn't need to be worried about me, you have a good job here you and Chase. I couldn't have dragged you both away" Lachie responded

"Lachie. We are your brothers, and our boss wouldn't have worried about us not being here. He would have told us to go straight away" Dean explained "Look, I'm going to get the next few days off, we need to sort things out"

"I…I already had to funeral Dean" Lachie abruptly said as Dean got up.

Dean sighed "Just wait here, okay?". Lachie nodded his head as Dean walked out to Vince

"Ah.. Can I have a word with you and Michelle?" Dean asked as Jordan watched him walk into the office with Vince

"Everything okay?" Michelle asked

Dean shook his head and sighed "My brother…Lachie" Dean said pointing his head towards the changing rooms where they saw him walk into them with a younger looking man "He uh…his wife. She died a few weeks ago and he lost his job… I need to ta-.."

"Take as much time as you need….Chase too" Michelle said cutting Dean off

Dean smiled "Thanks…I don't know how his dealing with everything… His like Chase, he'll just shut himself out from everyone until it gets too much for him and backfires in his face"

"Sounds like somebody else I know" Vince mumbled
