Dean-
Corey had texted me that they were at home. I walked in with Colby and Joe behind me. Phil was holding Ben.
"Hey, good looking kid you have here Good", Phil said.
"Thanks", I said.
I kissed Ben's head. Lucia came into the room with a bottle. She handed it to Phil and he fed Ben. She came over to me and hugged me tight, I rubbed her back.
"I'm gonna do whatever I can to keep you and Ben safe Lucia. I'm gonna find this guy", I said.
"La Familia has a partnership with him, deals, but I already warned my father, that if Sheamus puts one finger on you or the guys, he's dead and the deals with us are off", she said.
"Lucia", I sighed.
"I'm serious Jon", she said.
I took her hand and excused us. We got to our bedroom and I closed the door behind me. I paced the space in front of our bed. She watched me.
"You said with us. As in you are apart of those deals", I said confused.
"You knew who I was and what I had to do. My dad might still be alive, but once I took over that was it, I was apart of that life. Not only do these deals have to be approved by my father but by me too", she said.
"No, because you were here, I saw you. I mean how could you possibly", I stopped.
She stood and went to our closet. She came back with a laptop and files. She dropped them on our bed and I ran my fingers through my hair.
"Haven't you ever wondered how the house got paid off? Your car?", she asked.
"I just thought your dad", I stopped.
"It was me Jon", she said.
"So you've been doing this behind my back. No wonder they don't want to give me my job back, it's not that they don't trust me, it's you", I said.
"So you do blame me", she mumbled.
I looked up at her.
"You have a right to blame me. I followed in my dad's footsteps when I told myself I wouldn't, but from an early age, as soon as I knew how to read and write, to understand this life, he taught me everything. It's all I know, just like all you know how to do, is be a CIA agent", she said.
"That's not all I know how to do Lucia. If I had to leave I could find a job somewhere else. You can too", I said loud.
She shook her head no.
"That's not true. My father's sins have been passed down to my sister and I. The moment we go apply for a job and they do a background check, don't you think our father is going to pop up some how. Even when we go out people recognize us, all anyone sees is our father", she said.
"I don't see that", I said.
"Your job does. That's why you're on these crappy inspections", she said.
I rubbed my forehead.
"Lucia", I said.
"You know I'm right Jon. I know how to hide my tracks and my money. Your people won't find it, ever", she said.
"My people?", I asked.
She sighed.
"The last time I checked, I worked for your damn father and all because I fell in love with you", I said.
She bit her lip. I regretted those words as soon as they left my mouth.
"So what, you wish you never met me?", she asked.
I cupped her face in my hands and kissed her, her hands on my hips. I pulled away and looked into her eyes.
"I will never regret falling in love with you, ever. You gave me the best gift anyone could have given me, our son", I said.
She smiled.
"I know you might not want too, but I need you to go to Mexico with your parents. I would feel better knowing you're somewhere safe and away from Sheamus", I said.
"I can't leave you", she whispered.
"You can and you will. This is dangerous and I want you and Ben out of harms way", I said.
"If you die on me, I will find a way to bring you back and then kill you myself", she said.
I chuckled.
"I have no doubts about that", I said.
I kissed her forehead.
"Besides, I still need to marry you kiddo", I whispered.
She smiled.
"If that's a joke, it's not funny", she said.
"No jokes, you're gonna be my wife once we get Sheamus back in custody. You're gonna be Mrs. Jonathan Good", I said.
"I love you, Jon", she whispered.
I kissed her nose.
"I love you, Lucia", I said.
I took her hand and we walked back out to the living room. I knew they probably heard what was said in the room. I sighed and looked at Graves team.
"Take care of them. If I find out that they were harmed in any way, I will find you and kill you", I said to Corey.
"You have my word, they will be safe sir", he said.
I nodded and took Ben from Phil.
"Hey buddy, I'm gonna miss you kid, but I will see you and mommy as soon as I can ok and if I don't", Lucia stopped me.
"Jon", Lucia said.
"Take care of mommy", I said, kissing his forehead.
"I have to go to ours to pack some things", Lety said to Joe.
He nodded and stood.
"I'll be back", he said, taking Lety's hand.
Colby took Ben and held him. I followed Lucia back to our room. She pulled out a suitcase and started packing. I leaned against the door, watching her.
"I know you don't want to hear it, but if I don't make it", she cut me off.
"Don't, you're coming home to me and our son", she said.
"Lucy, I know you've heard about Sheamus and what he could do. He tortured Colby, almost killing him. If Joe didn't realize something was wrong with our car, we could have blown up. We lost twenty men while trying to get him, finally I pulled a gun off a dead agent and shot him, that was the only way we got him. Joe was bleeding out beside me, Colby was beaten and cut into", I said.
"My dad can help", she said.
"I'm still a CIA agent. I want to do things the right way and if that doesn't work, I will do it your way. I promise", I said.
"Fine", she sighed.
"Babe", I said.
She turned to look at me. I was taking mental pictures of her features. I didn't know how long it would be till we would see each other again, her lips, her eyes. I stood up straight.
"I'll be right back", I said.
She nodded and continued to pack. I gestured for the men to follow me to the back.
"What's up?", Phil asked.
"Can you call Fernandez?", I asked.
He nodded, but looked confused.
"Can I ask why?", he asked.
"I want to ask for his permission to marry Lucia, tonight", I said.
"Jon", Phil said.
"Phil, I don't know what's going to happen. I just want this, if I", I swallowed.
Colby placed his hand on my shoulder.
"Call him", Phil said to Baron.
Baron pulled out his phone and dialed. He handed me the phone.
"Hello", I said.
"Jon, is everything okay? My daughters, grandson?", he asked.
"Their fine. I just wanted to ask for permission to marry your daughter, tonight. I know you heard about Sheamus and if this is the last good thing I get in my life, making your daughter my wife, I ask that you give us your blessing", I said.
"You have it", he said.
I sighed.
"Thank you sir and I know you would like to be here", he cut me off.
"When you come home and you will come home, alive, we can have a big wedding but till then, you have my blessing for tonight", he said.
"Thank you sir", I said.
We ended the call and I gave Baron back his phone. Phil smiled and nodded.
"Looks like we are having a wedding boys", he said.
Colby pulled his phone out and walked towards the front of the house.
Colby-
"Yes Colby", Denise answered.
"Sounds like you miss me, don't worry babe you'll see me tomorrow", I said.
I thought I heard a laugh.
"Is there a reason you called?", she asked.
"Yes actually. Jon is getting married tonight. I was wondering if there was anyway you could find us someone to marry them", I said.
"I can do that, I'll call you back", she said.
"Okay my love, I'll be waiting", I said.
I heard her laugh and I went back to find the guys.
"Where did you go?", Jon asked.
"Denise, I asked her to find someone to marry you and Lucia", I said.
"Thanks", he said.
"So I guess we start getting ready", Jack said.
We all nodded. Jon already had a ring. He had bought it last month hoping to ask her, but his nerves would get the better of him and he would back out. I stopped him.
"What's up?", he asked.
"Did you hear that?", I asked.
We all listened. A car door closed.
"It's probably Joe and Lety", Phil said.
"No, it was all four doors that closed", I said.
"My gun's inside", Jon whispered.
"Here", Corey handed Jon an extra gun.
They had come prepared. Jon rushed to get inside. Baron picked up Ben and followed us, finding Lucia still packing. Jon wrapped his arm around her waist.
"What's going on?", she asked when she noticed our guns.
"Someone's here", Jon said.
We took them to the last room. Baron handed her Ben.
"Stay in the closet and don't move till I tell you", Jon whispered.
"Stay with me", she said to him.
He smiled at her then kissed her forehead.
"I love you. I'm gonna protect you always. Promise me you'll stay put Lucy", he said.
"Promise", she said.
"Now tell me you love me", he said, resting his forehead against hers.
"I love you Jon", she whispered.
He kissed her, finally pulling away. He stood and closed the closet door. He took a deep breath.
"Come out, come out wherever you are. I know you're home Jonny boy", an Irish accent called from the living room.
Jon looked at me and Baron. Graves, Swagger, and Phil went to set up around the house. I sent Joe a quick text.
"I know you're home, show your face", Sheamus said.
Jon looked at us.
"Protect my family", he said to us.
"That's what I was hired to do sir", Baron said.
Jon looked at me.
"Since when do you question it. You know I've always had your back and now that includes your family", I said.
