"Sam, Sam, Sam..." Jean said cheerfully when he answered his brother's call on his car phone as he left the hospital for his mother's house later that morning. "What's up, brother?" His fingers drummed against the steering wheel as he waited for the traffic light to turn green.

"Well, someone sounds very chipper this morning." Sam drawled. "Not what I was expecting."

"And what was it you were expecting?" Jean moved when the light turned green. God, he felt so alive. Who wouldn't be if they got to spend the morning with a man they adored, he thought with a grin.

"For someone who I'm told is suffering from extreme depression, you sound cocky as fuck." Sam said making Jean laugh.

"Don't believe everything that idiot Dean tells you." Jean chuckled. "I'm on my way to see mum. Where are you?"

"At the airport to pick up Ty." Sam responded. "Talk to him."

"Jay, you alright?" Tyler asked without preamble. He sounded worried.

"Never better bro. Welcome back." Jean said.

"Thanks. Hey, why don't you meet us at Sam's?" Tyler said.

"Now? I'm on my way to see mum."

"Aw come on, today is Sunday. You can go see her later in the day." Tyler said. "Olivia is preparing a feast I hear. Come on." He cajoled. "I'm calling Dean to join us."

Jean groaned. He knew what was going on. "An intervention is not necessary, Tyler." The brothers thought he needed the talk. "I'm fine."

"Let me be the judge of that." Tyler said firmly. "And I won't exactly call this an intervention because Josh, Allan and Ron won't be there."

"Ya think? I'm going to be stuck with two shrinks and a moron. I'll be better off with a full house."

Ron and Allan were attending a Pharmacy Conference in Germany. And Josh had traveled with their dad that morning, to be with the family of Michael's brother who had passed two days earlier. Michael wanted them to stay with the family for a week before the funeral, which was scheduled to take place the coming weekend. They were all to fly out for the funeral with their mother.

"Listen, mum must be bored in that house without dad..."

"Mum should have gone with her husband if she didn't want to be in that house alone." Tyler snorted. "Stop trying to get out of this, buddy. See you soon." The line went dead.

"Ooooh, fuck my life." Jean muttered as he changed course and headed in the direction of Sam's house instead. If only Bradley wasn't travelling out that morning, he groaned. He could picture them in bed, under the covers, talking about everything and nothing amidst tiny, sweet kisses. "Ughh..." Jean groaned. He couldn't wait to hear Bradley's voice. He'd promised to give him a called before their departure.

"Hey babes." Jean kissed Sam's wife on both cheeks and gave her a bear hug.

"Hi, my love." Olivia Broody laughed as she cupped Jean's cheeks in her palms. "Have you lost weight?"
