A/N: Hello~ How are all my favorite lovelies? Hehehe... enjoy the cuteness/angst... depends on what I feel like doing in this chappie, lol.

Everyone gathered around Luke in the rec room, anxiously waiting to hear what he had to say.

"Now, before I start I have a few things to say. None of what happened was his fault in any way, alright? Don't ask him because he'll swear up and down that everything was his fault because he's a self-blaming little shit. Got that?"

They nodded and he sat back on the couch.

"Okay, so I suppose the first thing I should tell you is that his father's name is John Sanderson. Ring any bells?"

They looked shocked and confused.

"You don't mean the same John that-" Soap started.

"Yup, that's the one." He confirmed with a nod.

"Wait, the one that captured those two and tortured them? What the fuck?!" Hesh said angrily.

"Yea... that's John for ya. He's the biggest ass I've ever seen in my life."

"...Wow... I never expected that. I mean, I saw the resemblance but I didn't think anything of it." Logan said sadly.

"I know, they have the same eyes. Gary hates his eyes. He used to scare the shit out of himself every time he looked in the mirror. It was the saddest thing ever."

"Well what happened?" Price asked curiously.

"His mom's name was Alyss. She was very sweet and an awesome mother. John actually used to be a good father, but when Alyss died from cancer, he started drinking. That's when all the trouble started, Gary was 11 and Charlie was around 9. This," he continued, pulling a picture from his wallet, "is what they looked like then."

He handed it to them and they all took turns looking at it. The picture was of Gary and Charlie. Gary just looked like a younger version of his current self, with fluffy brown hair and chocolate brown eyes to match. Charlie looked much the same, although he looked quite a bit younger. They were standing together at what looked like a park, with other kids playing on swings and slides in the background. They were adorable together and it looked like they were very close.

"Damn, they're so cute..." Kick said in awe.

"They look like twins." Keegan observed.

"They were both extremely close, much like Logan and Hesh. Anyways, when John started drinking, he got abusive. He was always angry, hitting Gary all the time and attempting to hurt Charlie. He never got to though, Gary was with him constantly and protected him. He wouldn't let John hurt him and was always getting hurt himself in the process, which is why he's covered in scars. John blamed him for Alyss's death and to this day he still feels guilty about it even though he didn't do anything wrong."

"Oh my god I wanna kill John so bad." Toad said. He was pissed.

"Same! I hate that guy so much!" Archer agreed.

"How the hell does he keep all this shit to himself?" Merrick asked, shaking his head in disbelief.

"First of all, you can't kill John. Gary's first in line for that. Secondly, he usually keeps everything to himself because he thinks he deserves it because he 'killed Charlie'."

"Wait when did Charlie die?!" Logan shrieked.

"Shush, I'm getting there. One night John hurt him really bad and he ran off for a while to get cleaned up. Seriously, there was blood and broken glass everywhere. I saw the house because I snuck in after the police were gone. But he literally left for like half an hour and when he got back, Charlie was dead on the floor with a knife in his chest."

"John was gone and had called the cops before he left. When the police got there, they saw Gary, who was covered in his and Charlie's blood and of course they saw the dead kid on the floor. And they, being the shitty police squad that they were, blamed the murder on the only one there, Gary. So he's still wanted all over England for 'murdering' his little brother and John is completely innocent in the eyes of the law."

The room was silent. Everyone was just too shocked to respond. They certainly hadn't expected that to be what was bothering their friend. It was so much worse than what they had all been imagining...

"Who the fuck does something like that to their kid?" Price asked quietly.

"I know! That's just messed up." Soap agreed.

"How old was he?" Keegan asked.

"Around 14, but after that whole incident he came to live with me. I was surprised when I got here, actually. He's a lot better now than he was. His anxiety used to be a lot worse. He used to have panic attacks all the time and never wanted to leave the house. When he first moved in with me, he flinched almost every time I moved because he was expecting me to hit him. But yeah, he's a lot better now." Luke said, rubbing the back of his neck.

"I didn't expect a 19 year old to have such a fucked up past..." Kick sighed.

Everyone else nodded agreement. None of them had been expecting this.

"Well, he's a tough kid, I'll say that much for him. Just... don't talk about this, alright? He doesn't like it."

"Yeah, we won't. But do you have any idea where John is?" Merrick asked.

"Ummm... no, I'm not the expert tracker, Gary is."

"Ugh, okay."

"Oh, have any of you noticed that Gary never drinks alcohol?"

They all looked at each other.

"Now that you say that, I can't remember ever seeing him drink." Soap said thoughtfully.

Luke nodded and said, "He never drinks. He's scared that he'll become like his father if he drinks because that's what turned John into a jackass."

"That's so sad." Hesh said.

"I know! This is so depressing." Logan said with tears in his eyes.

"So we'll never get to see him drunk?!" Keegan asked, a bummed out look on his face.

"Nope, never ever." Luke laughed.

They all whined and muttered curses. Damn it.
