He laughed, flashing her a wide grin, "Your a girl, and you have underwear. Hence the girly underwear," said Erin as he looked down at the blonde, "Then again, I don't really know exactly what it looks like considering I'm more focused on getting it off than examining it," he added as he dropped his right eye in a suggestive wink.

He reached out and grasped her small hand in his larger one before leading the two of them down the stairs and into the kitchen, "Okay, breakfast.. Let me see what I've got," he mumbled as he opened the fridge door and rummaged around.

He reached in and took out a carton of eggs and a packet of bacon before placing them on the table, "I really need to learn how to make something other than scrambled eggs and bacon," he remarked while shaking his head. He went back to the fridge and took out a can of whipped cream, "Yes, just what I need right now," he said as he tipped his head back and sprayed some of the whipped cream onto his tongue.

"Now let's get to the whole making of breakfast," he said while getting two pans out of the over, before placing them on the stove. Soon the sound sizzling sound of bacon and eggs filled the kitchen as he waited for it to cook, "Want some?" Hê questioned as he picked up the whipped cream can again and extended it out to her.

He shrugged before placing the can on the countertop, "Yea well it adds to my unique yet incredibly attractive nature," he replied with a smug grin on his face, but his grin stopped when he realized he wasn't paying attention to the food.

"Sh-t!" He exclaimed before hurrying to turn off the stove, luckily nothing was burnt although now the bacon would definitely be crispy.. "I really do suck at cooking," he stated before taking out two plates and playing them down onto the kitchen counter, "Dig in sweetheart,"

He smiled at her before joining her at the table. He ate in silence, not an awkward 'just let me get out of here please' silence but a comfortable, 'no words necessary,' one. After finishing the meal, he stood up and took both of their plates to the sink. While standing at the sink the sound of the front door swinging open and Alex walking in filled the air,

"Morning love birds," he greeted, "I brought doughnuts." Said Alex as he placed the box filled with fresh baked doughnuts on the kitchen counter. Erin sighed, "What did you do know?" He questioned as he turned to face the young man. Alex only brought doughnuts when there was bad news. "I don't know what you're talking about, I just wanted to be nice. Anyways, how are you doing this morning?" Asked Alex as he quickly turned the focus to Courtney.

"That's good," smiled Alex, "You guys seem happy this morning," he noted. His eyes then landed on how Erin and Courtney were dressed, "You guys seem really happy," he added with a perverted smirk. "I highly suggest you shut your mouth before I shut it for you," grumbled Erin.

"Geez I was just kidding," chuckled Alex as he waved his hands up defensively, "But in all seriousness, we do have to talk.." He said as his happiness faded, "Courtney, would you mind if I stole your boyfriend for a minute? And don't worry it's not about Daniel,"

"Thanks," said Alex as he and Erin made their way to the back door, "You're never in the way, just saying," smiled Alex before the two of them disappeared into the backyard.

"Alright what's going on. Even I'm curious since it's not about the jackass Daniel," said Erin as he crossed his hands over his chest. "I didn't want to ruin your day, but I thought I should tell you before you find out by yourself.." Started Alex. "Katherine's back. And she's looking for you."
The color drained from Erin's face at the mention of Katherine.

He turned around and then started walking back to the house, "Don't you want to know any details?" Questioned Alex with a confused glance. "No. I don't want to know anything about her, make sure she stays away from me and Courtney," replied Erin before walking into the house again. His eyes immediately landed on the blonde girl he loved and he hurried over to her before pulling her into a tight embrace, "I love you," he said softly

"I'm sorry, I know it's randome," he mumbled as he released her from his grip, "I just don't want you to forget it," he explained before leaning down and placing a kiss on her forehead. A second later Alex came back inside. Unlike Erin, Alex wasn't tense but relaxed and had a smile on his face.

An ability that Erin envied was that Alex could act like nothing was wrong extremely well. "Anyways, now that we have that out of the way, let's move onto the news of Daniel. John found out that he's in s stable condition and out of the ICU but he still has not awoken,"

"John's idea was that we make it seem as if you were never kidnapped in the first place," said Alex. "Everything was done under the table and there weren't any witnesses to the money transfer or ransom demands, therefore the only thing Daniel can go on is the money he wired over,"

"Which means, if we can somehow wire it all back and make it look like the money never left then he'll have nothing on any of us." Said Alex. His face fell and he gave an annoyed groan, "So... Much.. Money.. All going back," he said as he covered his face with his hands.

"Stop being a baby, we can get money somewhere else," chuckled Erin, "Does that mean that mean that Courtney can go into public? What about those cops at the mall?"
Alex nodded, "Yes she can, and they were only with Daniel because they were told there was a kidnapping. No proof was provided so they'll probably charge Daniel with false allegations,"

At the mention of breaking into a house both Alex and Erin's head snapped up. "What's this? Goody goody Courtney wants to become a criminal?" Teased Alex, "It was inevitable, hanging out with cool bad guys makes it look fun huh?" Laughed Alex.

Erin on the other hand was anything but amused, "Dont joke about stuff like that Alex," he grumbled, "Why are you asking us about our breaking and entering skills?" Asked Erin as he looked at Courtney. "Which, by the way, we are great at!" Added Alex, only to earn a glare from Erin

"Well, alright then," replied Erin, "Just give us a list of the things you want and where we can find them, and then I'll send someone to go get them." He explained. "Why don't we just go do it? It'll be easier if she's with us than just reading a note," suggested Alex

"No." Replied Erin, "I'm not letting her anywhere near that house, and I'm sure as hell not going to bring her along while breaking and entering," the way said it left little room for Alex to argue, but the meschevious glint in his eye made it known that he wasn't going to drop the idea.

Alex grabbed the piece of paper and reviewed over it, "Simple enough," he commented. "Seriously dude.. Get some pants on, your lady might find it attracrive, but as your brother its safe to say that I am thoroughly scarred," he mumbled as he looked at Erin, who was still in only a pair of gray boxers. "Screw off," grumbled Erin before turning around and making his way up the stairs and back to his room.

"Perfect, I knew that would get him out of the way," grinned Alex, "So tonight after dark when Erin is sleeping you're gonna come with us to get this," he explained as he waved the piece of paper. "You're going to have to learn how to do this stuff considering your boyfriend is a badass."

"Well, I know for a fact that Erin isn't going to leave you at home alone right now, he'll probably just send me and Tyler to go do it," explained Alex, "I'll just say it's a better to go at night because it means that I leave give him another night alone with you in the house," he added with a wink.

"Getting past him shouldn't be hard, he sleeps like a rock and it'll take a lot before he can wake up, so all you have to do is get out of the room without making too much noise." to Alex this plan was brilliant. But like most of the times, the young man didn't know why Erin said no.

"Awesome!" Replied an enthusiastic Alex, "This is gonna be so interesting," he commented. For a moment he wondered whether or not Courtney knew who Katherine was, but decided against the idea of bringing her up. Thats something for Erin to explain.

The sound of footsteps walking down the stairs signaled Erin's return before he walked into the kitchen, wearing a pair of gray sweats. "So, you've got the list, take Tyler with you and get to the house," he said as he stopped next to Courtney and pulled her against her side.

"I was thinking maybe we do it tonight, it's dark and safer not to mention you'd get the house all to yourself again," said Alex with a smirk. "It's my own house. If I want it to myself I'll just kick you out." Replied Erin with an unamused tone, "however, considering our delicate situation at the moment, I think you're right. Going at night would probably be better. Is that okay with you?" He asked turning to Courtney, "Waiting until tonight to get your things back?"

"Okay, it's agreed then. Alex go ahead and call up Tyler." Said Erin as he looked back over at Alex. Erin was tense at the moment, almost all of his previous attempts at erasing Katherine from his life failed, but know that she was back it was all he could think of. Why is she back? What the hell could he want. What happened that would send her looking for me? If only Erin knew that it was the fact that he was keeping Katherine a secret from Courtney, that was making him so upset.

the thoughts kept swirling around his mind to the point where he let out an annoyed groan, "Dammit, I need something to drink." He mumbled walking over to the kitchen cabinet and pulling out the first bottle of alcohol he could find. Rum. "Uh.. Man, do you need to be drinking in the morning?" Asked Alex a little bit worried. "It's afternoon somewhere in the world," came Erin's reply before he poured the bitter tasting liquid into a glass and downed it with one gulp.

His gaze traveled to Courtney, "What? Me, yea I'm fine. I'm just stressed that's all," he reassured, before pouring another shot of rum into the glass cup and downing it, the bitter liquid burning his throat all the way down. I can't remember the last time I had a drink, or got drunk.

Alex gave him a sympathetic glance before speaking, "I'll uh, be back soon. I'm gonna go out for a bit." He smiled at Courtney before walking past Erin, "Tell her." He whispered harshly before exiting the kitchen and making his way out of the house.

He smiled slightly as he felt her arms around him, "Just being yourself is fine," he replied as he loosened her grip and turned around so that he was looking down at her. He leaned down and connected his lips with hers in a short but sweet kiss.

Wanting to lighten the mood a bit he smirked, "Have you ever gotten drunk before?" He questioned, "I mean, I know you're a good girl and all that but you can't tell me that in your entire life you have never gotten yourself drunk off your ass." He added with a chuckled

Erin released a laugh, "Really now? We are going to have to fix that," he commented, "How come you only got drunk once? Surely your experience couldn't have been that bad," he added. He paused for a moment before looking at her suspiciously.

"You didn't by any chance wake up next to a dumpster in a different state did you?" He questioned with a joking tone. "Then again, it's not like I can judge you considering once I woke up in a motel in New Orleans.." Said Erin with an embarrassed chuckle.
