locked to Jack [ parties_not_war ]

When Gavin had called her the first time she had been so afraid and angry, wondering how the heck he had managed to get a hold of her number, but she had ignored him and asked him not to call anymore. He hadn’t understood and kept calling, demanding to have the chance to meet Robert since he was his father and like hell she was going to do so, she told him as much and just plain ignored him, and well she really didn’t thought it was going to get worse hence she hadn’t told anyone what had happened.

Prue hadn’t been ready though when Gavin actually showed up, she had no idea how he found out where she lived, and all the resentment and hate and just bad blood between them had ensured in a yell match like the other people in her building had never heard before, it got even worse when the stupid man had the gall to seduce her and then…

…then he had hit her again and she had just gone ballistics then, she wasn’t the same girl she had been then and fought back, he clearly had no qualms of doing the same. It just stopped when she threaten to call the police, which really she should have done before and Gavin had just looked at her in a way that actually made her fear him.

”You really can’t keep him from me, he is my son and we either agree or I will just take him away.”

She had seen red then and he barely managed to get out of the way of a flower vase before he left her apartment, but not before telling her he was going to call her again and she was pretty sure he was stalking down the hallway (with probably some curious tenants looking) seething in anger, while she was left there, trembling and barely able to keep herself up, sore and hurting while flicking some blood away from her busted lip. “Well…fuck…”

Jack had only gone out briefly to gather a few things. He'd told Prue that he wouldn't be long. Unfortunately, he was gone longer than he wanted to be thanks to his twin sister.

When he returns, however, he passes Gavin and then sees Prue in the doorway. The moment he sees her like that... the busted lip and... everything seems to stop and he sees red. Turning back he tackles Gavin and slams his fist into the other man's face repeatedly. Let the man say something. "Stay the hell away from her," he growls out. Each word punctuated with a punch. Didn't matter to him if he killed the man or not.

Let the whole damn world say something. 'Prince of Galboa found beating a man to death.'

Truthfully the last thing Prue needed was for Jack to find out about this, it was just her damn good luck that he arrived just when her ex-husband was leaving and before she could even hope to try to fix herself and come with an excuse for her lip, she could conceal any bruising for a bit.

And really the next flurry of movements happen in near slow motion for her and for a few second she stays where she is, her mind still trying to process what was happening in front of her, a small vindictive part of her was so freaking GLAD that Jack was pummeling Gavin, but then the most sane and mature one appeared, the one that became aware of people around that were also watching the commotion, it was not every day they saw their prince pummeling another man and the amount of attention this was going to bring.

Prue snapped back, just in time to hear someone calling the police, and braved the clear sheer anger emanating from Jack and Gavin’s attempts to try to resist the assault, which she doubted he could since Jack was in the military and quite a high rank to boot. “JACK! Stop it, it’s not worth it!” That and she didn’t wanted Robert to arrive and witness this commotion either.

Gavin could try to resist the assault all that he wanted. Those fists slam down into the other man's face, over and over again. The fact that someone had called the police should've bothered Jack, but it didn't. The police couldn't really do anything about what their prince did or didn't do.

Jaw clenched he heard Prue yell his name. Though saying that the other man wasn't worth it, was a lie. Beating Gavin was worth it if it meant keeping the woman he'd fallen for safe. However, he slams Gavin's head back hard on the floor. Making sure that the move would stun the man and possibly knock his ass out before getting up and moving to Prue's side.

The prince's knuckles were covered in blood. Possibly bruises as well even as he turns to look at the girl in question. "Are you okay?"

This was out of control; it wasn’t only the fact that the police was more than likely on their way, even though they might not be able to actually do something against Jack considering who he was and that was kind of the issue, she could see some people sneakily or trying to be recording the pummeling their prince was giving to Gavin with their phones.

And oh she was sure this was going to have such a backlash on all of them, but she will think about that later since priority was to keep Jack from killing him and she was so sure he could, and she’s so, so glad when he stops and moves to her side, though her eyes can’t help but to stay on Gavin for a bit because he looks so still, but he’s still breathing.

She turns to look back at Jack and slowly nods. “Yes…I am fine…but..why…” She wants to ask so many things, but she prefers not to do it and just takes his hands, examining his knuckles. “We need to clean you up.”

The man was only breathing because she'd stopped him. Otherwise the prince would've killed him and had no remorse for it. Why should he? Especially when the man harmed someone that Jack cared such a great deal for. Loved even.

Those haunted eyes turn to her and for a moment he's lost. In the fight, in the war... just lost. "Because I care about you. Love you." He didn't care how she reacted to that. She'd asked why and he'd given her the answer. "They'll get upset if we clean me up before they get here." Not that he cared. "Lets get cleaned up." Before Rob got home.

Right now she didn’t wanted to spare any more attention to Gavin, she was aware that some of her neighbors were moving to check over the man, but she couldn’t care less and now she was realizing that after this little shuffle she might need to move, it wouldn’t do for people to talk behind her back and have Rob listening to it.

Her head snapped up at his words and she looked at him with a bit of a broken expression, he loved her? How could he when she…was who she was…she took a deep shuddering breath and looked down again. “…you shouldn’t, I’m not worth of that.” She didn’t want to say anything else about this; the things she had tried too hard to conceal and forget were back. “Yes, come on then.”

She wasn't moving all because he beat the hell out of Gavin. As for Rob... well, if it came up then he'd explain things to the little guy. They had no secrets from one another after all. Him and her son talked about a lot of things. Namely her.

"Don't you tell me that you're not worth it," he states firmly. "Because you are worth it. Never say that you're not again. Any idiot would see that you're worth it." For a moment he doesn't move because his mind is just... Then he shakes his head and follows her inside, still mainly just going through the motions.

She just gave him a bit of a look, not exactly believing that but not wanting to argue about that or at least not now, not when she had just been faced with the main reason she will never feel as if she deserved those words, the proof of how dumb and naïve and easy to manipulate she had been once upon a time.

She knows that if anyone comes they will direct them to her apartment and she didn’t want to think about that mess, which was why she was really going to need to move. All of her motions were silent and thoughtful, from getting what she needed to then cleaning his knuckles. “…your family is going to find out about this now.” And with this she meant ‘them’ not the fact he had nearly beaten a man to dead.

The prince feels her cleaning his knuckles but doesn't say a word at first. His mind is going a mile a minute. Though if she thinks that he's going to let her move away, then she's out of her mind. He's not losing her or Rob. Much less over him beating that piece of shit Gavin.

"Let them find out. It'll be good for all of us." It might even have Silas leaving them the hell alone.

She stops and looks up at him, wondering for a few seconds if Gavin might have managed to miraculously land a good hit on the head for him. “Good for us?” And she took a deep breath before shaking her head and turning her attention back on the knuckles, trying to just put everything in order in her head. “It might be good for your family I suppose, they might be able to find what they might consider an adequate match for you, someone like Lucinda for example.”

As it was, leaving this incident aside, she came with too many issues and she wouldn’t wish someone like herself to her son and it was probably a sentiment his family might share. She finished with his knuckles and stood up to stash away the first aid kit, before sending a quick message to her brother to get Rob and let her crash there, before going with the emergency plan they had hatched up in case this happened.

"I said good for us. Not good for that piece of shit family that I have," he states once her attention is turned back to his knuckles. "The only good thing about that family is my sister." David... he wasn't exactly family even though his sister seemed to think so. The golden boy wasn't something he was thinking of at the moment, however. "Lucinda is a whore. Nothing more. You're the only match that there is for me."

As for what her... he wasn't letting her leave his sight. So she'd best text her brother back and have him bring her son. Otherwise, Jack would head out and get Rob himself. No one kept him from the only family that he had. Not even her. Her and Rob were his family.

“That might be it, but your parents are still going to get themselves involved in this.” And she couldn’t help the slight wince at just how he referred to that woman and shrugged a bit. “As good as the sentiment is and despite what you might think it will not stop your parents from finding someone else, will it?”

It was just the way things went she supposed, before she could send anything else there was a knock on her doorframe and she took a deep breath when she saw the police there, this was going to take quite awhile.

And it did ended taking awhile, for not saying hours, between getting her declaration and re-checking that Gavin wasn’t dead and the fact there was a restraining order, not mention the fact Jack did managed to avoid jail since Calvary did arrived for him and the media.

Well Prue was just…tired and had slipped off while the mess with the media was happening, needing to check on Rob and telling her brother to keep him from watching the TV before arriving to her brother’s apartment and avoiding giving much explanation to Rob, before sending off to bed and trying to forget that Gavin had found them.

He clenches his jaw and shakes his head, "No, they won't find someone else. They'll see that I've found someone who is worth my time. Who I've made a family with. That's all that will matter to them." Especially when it would mean that Jack, technically, already had an heir to the throne.

Her disappearing on him was not the way to go about things. And she had best home that she at least let him know where she'd gone. After all, a worried prince was not and never would be a good thing. Not that it takes him long to figure out where they were. Which is why he ends up at her brothers.

Sorry about her luck, but neither of them were staying there. He was taking his family home. Everyone and their mother be damned.

In her defense, she had at the very least sent Jack a message letting him know she was taking off to check on Rob, she didn’t told him where but she had at least let him know, since it was the least she could do so he wouldn’t worry and for her to have enough time to regroup and think of what she was going to tell him regarding what was going to happen now. But of course he only played with his own rules.

Maybe that’s why David is not very surprised when he finds the prince on his front door and looking for his sister, it was still weird for him to know she had gotten involved with a prince or how the heck that had happened to begin with, and he only looked at the man. “Don’t get angry with her or push her to do anything she’s not ready for, she’s not in the best state at the moment.”

And really prince or not David can politely ask him to leave his house if his sister was in distress, but hopes there won’t be a need for that before allowing the man in and deciding to leave them alone, and making sure Rob is sleeping. Prue, also, doesn’t looks overly surprised when she sees Jack either. “So you found me.”
