Tony was the first to wake in the morning. The house seemed very quiet and for a moment he was not sure where he was, then he remembered the nightmare he has just awaken from, only it was no nightmare. He decided he should make some coffee and get the others up. They had a long day ahead of them, and who knows what awaited them in South Carolina. He looked at the clock, their flight was in approximately 3 hours. So he had time to run home and gather his things together and also to let his family know what was going on. As he stood above Step and Pauly, the seemed so peaceful and at rest in one another's arms he hated to wake them. Gently he nudged Paulo. "Pauly, he Pauly man you gotta get up" Pauly stirred awake, his sleep was not very restful through out the night Stephano could be heard crying in his sleep. Pauly's arm laid across his little brothers shoulders protectively as Step still slept on his chest. "Oh, yeah man what time is it?" Pauly asked as he tried to shake the pins and needles from his arm. "Its just after 8, I made some coffee. Look I need to run and get some things ttogether but I'll be back in 40 minutes or so. Also Steps dad called he will arrive in South Carolina by 12, and he has a rental van and will pick us up. Looks like he has really got things together there is a hotel room waiting for us and everything." Tony called over his shoulder as he headed out the door. By this time Stephano was awake, but he had kept his eyes closed and just listened. "Gee Tony, I have not seen my dad in sometime. This is all too weird for me. Do you think he is gonna take me away, I mean to do not want to leave Virginia!!!!" Step cried in sudden alarm. "Whoa slow down Kiddo, I think you are getting a little ahead of yourself, hey you go get cleaned up while I try and reach Darren's parents again. If you don't mind pack some things for me too ok? Pauly smiled weakly trying to sound in control and hiding the sick feeling he felt inside. "Yeah sure thing Pauly." Step hugged him a squeeze "I am really glad you are here" and then ran off to get his shower. The flight down was almost in total silence. Step just watched out the window Tony sat almost the whole flight with his fist clenched till his knuckles were white. Pauly was in deep thought, what was he going to find, when he arrived. His mother was dead and his sister was clinging to life. Here he is sitting with his little brother 10 years his jr. and a person he barely knew. Pauly smiled to himself in spite of his sadness, in such a short period of time his little brother had come to mean so much to him. Pauly looked over at his brother, right then Stephano looked like a frightened little kid and Pauly just wanted to grab him and pull him close and never let anything hurt him again. Instead he placed his hand on Step's knee and gave a small squeeze and smiled weakly "We are gonna be OK Bud, I promise." Step never looked away from the window, he did not want anyone to see him crying. He did not want to be a baby but still he was very afraid, everything he had ever known was now gonna change. He was afraid to face not having his mother around and also not knowing the fate of his sister which perhaps felt worse, at least his mother was at peace.......poor Palermo oh or how bad was Paly how much pain is she in, and being in that hospital all alone. Then the thought hit him his dad was there. His dad had flown down to be with his daughter. That gave him some peace of mind. He was shaken from his fog by the voice of the captain telling the passengers they were approaching their destination. Stephano took a deep sigh, wiped his eyes and looked over at Pauly and Tony, they each smiled a small smile each saying a silent prayer to themselves. The airport was fairly crowded, Stephano was not sure his dad would recognize him in this mess of people. Since they had packed so lightly they did not need to check baggage.
From out of no where Stephano heard a deep Male voice "Stephano, Step my boy over here." Stephano turned toward the call of his name, and his breath ca ught in his voice as he caught sight of his Dad, Ian Flahgerty. Ian was a very handsome man he stood just about 6'5" 215 lbs of mature muscle, he whore deep green polo shirt that stretched across his manly chest and khaki dockers that fit him perfectly, it is obvious he had taken very good care of himself.
Bright red hair with just a touch of gray on the temples and wicked blue green eyes. Yes, Ian was an Irishman and the sight of him made Stephano catch his breath, it had been some time since he had seen his father, the man was almost like a stranger, well almost he did keep in touch but the visits between them were lacking. Stephano was unsure if he should run to his dad and hug him or what, he hated these sort of awkward greetings. He did not have to ponder long because in few swift steps Ian was upon the group and grabbing Step in a big bear hug "My dear sweet boy it is so good to see you, Son I am so sorry it has to be under these circumstances" as Ian let Step down he was extending his hand to Pauly. "Pauly it is also good to see you, thank you for calling me letting me know" Pauly was surprised at first he was unsure how he would react to Ian, here is a man he has hated for so long growing up, the man that stole his mother away from his father his father's supposed best friend a man he called Uncle Ian, but Pauly realized at this moment all he felt was relief, glad that there was another family member to help through all of this emotional mess. In strong a sure handshake Pauly replied " I am glad you are here Ian it is good to see you." Ian smiled at Pauly "Thanks again bud" he then turned his attention to Tony. "Tony I have not seen you for sometime, again I wish it were under different circumstances. The 4 men aquatinted themselves as they walked through the airport. Ian giving them the updates on Palermo. While the others got into the van Ian pulled Stephano aside and with tears in his eyes "Son, I want you to know I am truly very sorry About Allana Rose although your mom and I divorced I loved her very much she was my best friend, I just wanted you to know that." Stephano smiled weakly "Dad, Palermo and I know mom loved you too she never let us forget that" he then gave his Dad a hug and Father and son held one another for a few silent moments. Tony and Pauly looked at one another and sighed, yes it was gonna be good to have Ian around after all. The group decided they would go straight to the hospital to see Palermo, Ian had already taken care of the paper work for Allana Rose, a task he wanted to keep his young son from having to deal with. After arriving to the hospital they had good news awaiting them. Palermo's condition had been down graded to critical but stable she had come out of her comma and which was a good thing because the chances of brain damage were less likely and she was removed to room just outside of ICU where she was resting and recovering. The Doctor said they could visit but only very briefly. Ian and Tony let Stephano and Pauly go in to the room first. Step and Pauly pulled up chairs beside their sisters bed. Stephano could barely see through his tears. His beautiful sister lay their with wires and cables connected to all parts of her body. Her face was bruised and bloody both eyes were swollen shut, Step gingerly reached out his hand and touched his sisters hand "Palermo, can you hear me? Paly? Both me and Pauly are here too" Stephano felt his sisters grip tighten around his hand, but noticed no movements from her face. "Tony's here too Paly" Pauly had said as he held her other hand, "We all love you very much" They sat a moment in silence watching their sister. Then Stephano said "Palermo, Mommy did not make it, I am not sure I should tell you this now, but I don't want you to sit and wonder or worry" even though Palermo never opened her eyes both Pauly and Step noticed a single tear roll from the corner of her eye. Just then the nurse came in to shoo them out so the next visitor could come in. It was Tony just before he entered he told Pauly and Step that one person was allowed to stay the night with Palermo. They all agreed it should be Tony. Ian said his good byes to is sleeping daughter. As Tony settled into the room the three remaining men left for the hotel.
Ian had already checked into the hotel, he had gotten two rooms. The rooms were adjoined by a kitchenette and dining area and separated by the deluxe bathroom. Both of the rooms were large One room had one queen size bed and the other had two single beds. The room with the queen bed Ian had gotten for himself, and the other was for the two boys. He had forgotten about Tony. As they entered the suite, Ian turned to Step, "Son not sure how long we are gonna be down here but I only got three beds, did not know Tony was coming down. So it looks like you and I will have to bunk while we're here, but if you'd like tonight you can stay with Pauly?" Step looked from his dad to his brother, Pauly shrugged his shoulders. Step then said "Well Dad if its cool with you I wanna stay in the room with Pauly until Tony comes." Ruffling his sons hair Ian smiled "That's cool with me, guys why don't we settle in and then we'll think about finding some place to eat." The guys each went to their rooms, Ian had not unpacked he pretty much through his things in the room so he could make room in the van for the kids and rushed off to the hospital. The boys were silent as the sun set and Unpacked packed the few things they had. Step went to the bathroom to put away his toiletries, "Dad? This is the only bathroom?" Ian smiled "No son that one just has the Jacuzzi bath and all those other fancy fixins, the bath room in here is pretty small just a toilet and a sink." Step shrugged "I guess this one is large enough for us all, Dad one more thing........." Step entered his dads room and sat on the bed. "yeah son, what's on your mind?" "Well, Dad, the thing is, I ah, well I want to know if, that is, well the thing is I was wondering why we did not have to go see mom?" By this time Pauly was standing in the bathroom doorway, he had gone into the bathroom to put his toiletries away "Ian I was kinda wondering the same thing" Pauly stood with is arms crossed over his chest. Ian looked up from the chest of drawers he was putting his things in "Well fellows, I did not think it was a good idea to have Step here having to identify his mothers remains, but rest assured guys I did not make any plans or anything else I just identified you mom" Ian realized just how morbid this conversation was and he had to shake his head to rid him self of the creepy feelings. Both Step and Pauly realized this too and were somewhat grateful and somehow saddened too that they did not see their mother. Stephano whispered "I'd rather remember her as my beautiful mother, the one that kissed me good-bye as she left to come to this god awful state" suddenly feeling very bitter and angry at those damn drunk drivers feeling glad at least they had died as well. Just then Pauly's cell phone went off and he ran to answer it. It was Darren, finally returning his call.
"Dad, how long are you planning to stay here? What are we gonna do?" Step asked suddenly again afraid of all that he has to face. Ian sat down beside his son and put his arm around Steps shoulder "Well son I am here for as long as it takes I have cleared my calendar and since I am my own boss I have as long and I need and as long as you and Palermo need me. The rest.....none of us will worry about right now we have many other things to take care of first" Hugging his son to him Ian let out a deep sigh and said "Son, Dad is here for as long as he needs to be." ******************************************************************************
