It's March and Brendan decided to treat Ste "I never did make it up to ya Stephen, did I?"

"Make up for what?"

"Disney Land"

"That's the past Bren, it's all about the future now"

"Well the midterm is coming up so I thought we could take a little holiday with the kids"

"Are you taking up to Disney Land"

"No, we can't go that far away with Harriett pregnant but I was thinking Dublin maybe, see the boys, let Oisin see Ronan and maybe even visit The Ha'penny for old times sake, you can have Douglas to watch the deli"

"What about that bloody dog you know Cheryl wont go near it"

"Douglas he can watch it"

"I'll go tell the kids" Ste ran out of the room and then ran back in kissing Brendan and then running out again

Doug was annoyed when Ste first asked for him to watch his dog but then he realised that would mean Ste would be giving him the spare key and well he had plans

Ronan and a couple of Oisin's friends had turned up at the airport with instruments in had and a sign reading 'idiot' they played 'Welcome Home' by Radical Face Oisin cried, an elderly woman beside them cried, Ronan cried too but that was because Oisin kissed him, he just kissed him there infront of everybody and he realised just how much Oisin had grown and changed since he escaped so that's why he cried because he was inlove and happy and the person he loved was happy and they loved him back aswel and that was beautiful

Brendan and Ste told Oisin to walk ahead with the kids when they reached the Ha'penny and he did after pointing out a padlock which he claimed to be his and Ronan's, "So here we are ay?" Brendan said pulling Ste closer to him by his hand "Here we are" Ste muttered against his lips, here they were, it took them a long time to get there it had but they made it and they are better and stronger and happier because of it, they fought and cried and made declarations of love and told lies but in the end they had made it

Doug had walked into the Brady-Hay home as if he owned it he was carrying a duffle bag pull of small cameras that he has planed to hide all around the house and why shouldn't he, he was just making sure his children and the man he loved were safe, that's all he was doing and if he was to see some incriminating footage that could send Brendan to jail was just a plus right?

Brendan thought it was about time he and Aoife had a little reunion, Ste had the kids so Brendan Oisin had made their way to Eastwall where Oisin had lived, it was run down and dangerous only minutes away from Mount Joy prison, not the nicest place to grow up, Brendan had knocked roughly on the door and Oisin had commented on how it sounded like a gaurds knock, they had come around more than once when Oisin was younger but never once to help him only to raid the flat, a thin sickly looking woman opened the door and gasped as soon as she laid eyes on the pair infront of her "Oisin" she said in nearly a whisper "Heya Ma"

"Aoife"

"Brendan"

"Is your hubby home? I want a word" Aoife nodded and stepped aside for them to walk into the cluttered flat "Aoife who the fuck was it?" Dermot called from the sitting room, Brendan walked towards the voice with Aoife and Oisin trailing behind "You Dermot?"

"Yeah, what's it to you"

"You been hitting my boy" Brendan towered over the now standing man "Who the fuck are you?" Dermot said looking up slightly a Brendan "He's my dad" Oisin said from behind them "You what the fuck do you think you're doing back here you ungrateful little shit" Brendan grabbed him by the collar and slammed him against the wall "Don't you ever talk to my son like that agian, got it?" Brendan slammed him against the wall again "Da, no he's not worth it I just want to get some things and then we can go back yeah?" Oisin said inching towards Brendan "Go then I'll wait here with Dermot" Oisin turned looking at his mother and then walked towards his old bedroom "Now we're going to have a little chat okay Aoife" Brendan turned to look at the woman "Why" Brendan spat at the woman "Why" he clenched his fists "Why didn't you tell me"

"You were married"

"And you were pregnant"

"We didn't need you"

"Well he fucking did"

"We did just fine"

"You beat him, you let him beat him, you allowed him to be abused and then blamed him when he came to you about it, What kind of fucking mother are you?" "And what he's so much better off with you"

"Atleast he's loved and safe with us"

"I did my best!"

"Well your best wasn't fucking good enough" Brendan calmed himself down as Oisin walked back into the room "Da, I'm ready now" Aoife walked towards Oisin "Oisin come home love"

"No ma, I know you tried but sometimes you didn't even bother to acknowledge my existence and I wish I could forgive you I really do but I can't I just can't" Brendan walked towards his son and pushing him towards the door with a hand on his shoulder, Oisin remained calm they walked back to the hotel, they had dinner, they hadn't spoken but he remained calm until about five hours after the encounter when he just broke down in his fathers arms sobbing uncontrollable

Doug walked into the master bedroom and started going through the draws and stopped after finding a half empty bottle of lube and a open box of condom, he gagged at the mere thought of them doing such a thing, that man defiling his love but that would all stop soon
Oisin had fallen asleep in Brendan's arms and that's how Ste had found him when he entered the hotel bedroom from the kid's ajoining room "How did it go Bren?" he whispered "I should of killed them right there"

"Why didn't you?"

"Oisin didn't want me to"

"I'm proud of you" Ste said while climbing into bed beside them "I know it must of took a lot not to do it but you didn't and I'm proud of you for it" Ste leaned over kissing Brendan's cheek and running his hand through Oisin's hair

Brendan had spent the rest of the break distracting himself from going back to that flat and killing them stone dead, he had spent time with Declan and Paddy, he had showed the kids all of his favourite spots, he had some alone time with Stephen and he had signed divorce papers with Eileen, the family had returned after a week and things were normal again well at least that's what he thought since he didn't know about the hidden cameras around his home recording his every move.

Again please review I live off of them and I hope everyone enjoys this story because I know I do :D
