A big hello and apology to all my readers, I am sorry it has taken so long to update….am working on next chapter now! Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own them except Katherine
Jeff stormed off after his Mother. His five sons and Katherine had frozen to the spot they were in. It was bad enough having an upset Grandma let alone an upset Father too.
"So, Kat did you sleep?" Alan asked breaking the silence, trying his hardest to keep a straight face.
"You mean did you sleep…..well?" Scott asked.
"No," Alan said shaking his head and stuffing his face with cereal, "cuz Grandma said that they had sex that means they didn't sleep!" he blurted out managing to spit bits of breakfast over Virgil as he spoke. Virgil was slumped half asleep over the table so he just wiped the bits of slobber off his face and gave Alan a side ward's glance that said 'I will get you for that later'. John blushed looking to Scott pleadingly, then turning back in time to see Katherine run out the back door.
John muttered something under his breath then ran outside after Katherine to make sure she was okay.
"Alan," Scott sighed "Dad has told you before not to eat with your mouth full and what goes on behind closed doors is none of your business." He added quickly before Alan could respond.
Alan went to say something else but stopped when Scott gave him a warning glance.
"MOTHER, HOW COULD YOU…" Jeff bellowed, his sons who were still in the kitchen, all looked at each other again and made their way over to the kitchen door where they listened against it; their Father and Grandmother still arguing.
"Jefferson, there is absolutely no need to raise your voice to me!" she said calmly while busying herself with dusting.
"Mother," he repeated more calmly, "you know that John is a shy kid, you just can't embarrass him like that, especially in front of Katherine!" Alan started to snigger, which earned him a clip round the ear hole from Scott.
"Yes, well maybe you should start teaching those boys of yours that those things of theirs are to be used for one thing and one thing only until they are married!" this statement even made Jeff blush slightly.
"Times have changed," Jeff said, "besides I gave them my permission, my blessing or whatever you want to call it, now I would like you to apologise to John, then to the rest of the family for your little outburst!"
"I don't think so Jefferson! You are going to side with one of your constantly growing hormones that you call your son over your own Mother?" Jeff stood looking at her with his hands on his hips looking skywards knowing full well he wasn't going to win this argument. He then bowed his head and turned towards his drinks cabinet, with the full intention of annoying his Mother, he poured himself a tall glass of scotch.
"Cheers," he said smiling at his Mother and raising his glass to her and with that, un-known to her Grandsons, she marched angrily over to the kitchen door yanking it open with every muscle in her body. All of the boys lost their balance and fell through the doorway landing in a pile on the floor.
Before anyone could say anything Mrs Tracy turned on her heels storming towards the hallway, yanking off her apron dumping it on the nearest sideboard before grabbing her coat and bag then leaving the house, slamming the door on her way out.
"Now see what you've done! You upset your Grandma!" Jeff said sipping the contents of the glass as his sons picked themselves up off the floor occasionally shoving each other and trying to pass the blame to each other as to who's fault it was.
"I don't care who is to blame! But now you have upset your Grandma!" Jeff said.
"Hey Dad, that's not fair you got her mad too," Scott managed to pluck up enough courage to say. Jeff just smiled and chuckled deeply, scanning his four sons that stood in front of him noticing that one was missing.
"Where is John anyways?" Jeff asked questioningly.
"He went after Kat," Virgil said still very sleepy.
"Went after her?" Jeff repeated, noticing how tired his middle son was. 'Have to get that boy's thyroid checked' he thought to himself.
"Yeah, cuz Alan embarrassed her!" Gordon exclaimed.
Jeff looked puzzled, how could Alan possibly embarrass her? Although knowing Alan anything was possible.
"He was teasing her and John about, ah, having sex," Scott said cautiously, "from the look on Johns face I doubt very much anything happened, but they were both embarrassed by the statement."
Jeff just looked tiredly over at Alan, who was looking innocently back.
"What have I said before about teasing your brothers, Alan?" Jeff sighed.
"Not to do it," Alan groaned.
"That's right, now could you all find something to do," Jeff said noticing his two youngest sons looking mischievous at each other, "something that doesn't include teasing, pestering, hurting or annoying your brothers, yes I'm talking to you two," he said to Alan and Gordon who looked disappointed upon hearing their fathers words, "now go on with you all, maybe I can have an afternoon of peace."
Once Jeff was alone he wondered where his Mother had stormed off to and where John and Katherine had disappeared to.
"Oh well," he sighed to himself, "I'm sure they will all magically reappear when I don't want them to!" and with that he plonked himself down in front of the Television with his bottle of scotch and a very tall glass.
