AlfieAmandaFan- thank you for your reviews, I'm glad you're enjoying the stories.

Guest- thank so you for your review, it made my day.

Prompted by guest- after all the bad blood between Robbie and Joe they bond.

Chapter 5- bonds that are broken, can be repaired:

Robbie was going off the rails, he was reckless and thoughtless getting involved in dodgy deals with Trevor. It was a waiting game, Robbie was waiting to be caught or killed. His family were worried, well Joe was slightly concerned the rest of the family k new what was going on but didn't really care that much, especially Jason.

Him and Robbie had, had a strained relationship ever since Robbie pushed him off the ravine. In fact Robbie had a strained relationship with all his family, especially after punching Joe. However what Robbie didn't know that deep down, even though it looked like Joe didn't care, deep down he would still do anything to protect his little brother.

Back at the garage Freddie and Ziggy were working on cars when Ziggy asked, "what do you of all this business with Robbie?." Freddie thought about it. "I don't really know Zigg", Freddie began, "and to be honest I don't care, well I do care about Robbie but I don't care about what he gets himself into. I've got that boy out of too much trouble in my time.". He finished. Ziggy just gave him a look.

Jason couldn't care less what Robbie did. He hated Robbie for what he had done to him and he didn't even get charged, so Jason jumped at every opportunity to get Robbie arrested and charged for something. Except that never seemed to work. Because whenever Jason did arrest Robbie, Ben always seemed to get him off the hook. It just didn't make sense to Jason.

Joe would be lying if he said he didn't worry about Robbie, off course he did he was his kid brother. But Joe didn't worry about him enough to get involved and stop it. However that all changed when Joe got a phone call, from the police station, telling him that Robbie was in serious trouble.

"Why do you always have to get this family in bother?", Ziggy asked early annoyed, as he and Robbie walked through the front door. Robbie just shrugged, to be honest he didn't really know why he got into trouble. Maybe it's because it's fun or dangerous and you don't know whether you're gonna get caught. Robbie thought to himself. He had his older brothers who couldn't give a dam about him.

Then he had his twin brother who couldn't care less about him. Fair enough he did he push him off a ravine, but he didn't mean it. He was in a tense situation and Jason was about to ruin everything, he just did what he had to do and now it seems like his whole family hated him.

The next day Robbie, Freddie and Joe were at the garage working on cars when Robbie screwed up, again. "Robbie that's the wrong car!", Freddie exclaimed, clearly annoyed with Robbie, Joe could sense that something was about to kick off. Robbie turned around angrily, "well you know what Fred, next time you want a car doing, do it yourself!" He shouted, slamming a spanner off the floor.

"Robbie just calm down", Joe said calmly trying to make sure the situation didn't escalate. Unfortunately this already had, the next thing Joe knew Robbie was smashing up the garage with Freddie shouting. "Rob stop it yeah!", Freddie shouted as he hurled a chair across the room. Joe quickly ran in and grabbed a struggling and angry Robbie.

"Robbie just calm down, just calm down", Joe said trying to calm Robbie down, except it wasn't working. "Nothing I do is ever good enough for you is it!" Robbie spat still trying to break free from Joe's iron grip. "No Robbie you just get involved with the wrong people", Joe said, relieved that Robbie was eventually claiming down. Robbie stopped struggling and released himself from Joe. "You calm?", Joe asked ready for another violent outburst. Robbie just nodded and ran out of the garage.

Joe arrived back to an empty house, except he had a feeling that it wasn't empty, he could sense that someone was upstairs. Joe walked upstairs and when he reached the top knocked on Robbie's door. "What", Robbie replied, Joe let himself in.

"You alright mate?", he asked sitting down on the bed, Joe knew he had to be careful. Robbie had never been someone who would open up and talk about his feelings, so this would either one way or another. "Alright", Robbie replied. "You wanna talk about happened earlier?", Joe asked, knowing he was skating on thin ice. Robbie shrugged. "I know you didn't mean to flip out like that Rob, things just got on top of ya. It happens to all us", Joe said hoping he was getting through to Robbie. "But it's not just things Joe, it's everything", Robbie sighed. "You all hate me, it's obvious. You don't care what I do, just as long as it doesn't affect the family, we ain't a family no more Joe, we're just people that happen to share the same surname." Robbie finished.

Joe sighed, was that really hope Robbie felt? He didn't know it had got that bad. "Look mate of course we care about you, we love you. It's just we all push each other to breaking point and sometimes it just gets too much. Don't let anyone tell you that we don't care about ya cos we do and that's never gonna change." Joe said pulling Robbie in for a hug; hoping that Robbie would remember that they all loved him.
