Eric walked into his apartment after locking up his office across the hall. He closed the door behind him glancing at his computer that didn't show any new emails after the one he received from Troy saying he had got the job. Obviously he wasn't surprised.
He had an odd job today... and it wouldn't make him loved by his family that was for sure. He met Sami Boulevard a friend of Alice Jackson's who both modelled for his mothers company.
Sami who he knew as Christine Hope and Alice who he knew as Missy Valentine came into his office requesting something a bit odd... for him to dig into his father's past.
Also get the proof to his wife that he was basically cheating on her.
Now he did accept but this was a new low in his families eyes or would be. But his mother deserved to know the truth, and he knew of his father's past. But the information Sami gave him wasn't something you could get through google it was mob information from a top secured line. One she had somehow got through. He had thought of informing Jericho, but decided against it. If they noticed her they would do it without him.

Troy sat in his room and called Eric. Still feeling slightly shaky from the conversation with his parents. He never could stand to see his mother cry. Made him feel like an ass for everything that she did for him and tried to do for him. And his dad telling him to spy. He wasn't going to do that.

Eric glanced at his phone going to it picking it up, "Hello?" He didn't answer with his usual 'Eric Dixon speaking how can I be of assistance?' but then that was for work.

"Hey. It's Troy." He was pretty sure he didn't need to say his name but he did anyway. He leaned back against the window. Sitting in the window sill like he did when he was younger. He was feeling slightly scared and insecure and a little bit young. He knew he shouldn't feel this way. He was 23 and a man now but there was something about this whole mess that had him feeling like it anyway. A part of him that was greatly reassured by his big brothers voice.

Eric sat himself on his windowsill looking down at the busy streets of London not realising that the way he was sat was exactly like his twin was sat. "Hey, what's up?"

"Just got done telling mom and dad." Troy said. His voice slightly shaky. "And slightly worried I am going to completely screw up on the new job. But other then that I'm cool."

"So moving down south? Also screwing up is a part of life, look at me... I'm the Dixon definition of screw up and I'm fine." Eric told his twin a small smile on his face. "Anyway you will be near me, if you screw up I can help you."

"Yeah. Except you're self sufficient. I screw up I might implode or something." He stated with a bit of a laugh. "You're the survivor Eric... Come zombie apocalypse time you're going to be the cool half naked guy with a shotgun and I am the guy that gets eaten first."

Eric laughed slightly though he kind of sobered... who knew what could happen with biochemicals these days... since even scientists have said that zombies are a possibility. "You know I would keep you alive. Always." Though he had rose an eyebrow at the half naked guy with the shotgun bit... especially since it would be a pistol or a sniper rifle but Troy didn't know that. It still pained him lying to his sibling but he was doing good in Jericho. "Anyway you know it would be our parents that get eaten first...." He joked... slightly.

"Nahh. They would have been dead before opening credits. And probably the one's that wound up eating me." Troy joked. "But yeah. I know you have my back. Even when I don't deserve it." He told Eric a bit softer. "You know dad actually told me to spy on them? Not that I will..." He added. "Just wonder how long he is going to stay 'supportive' when he figures out I won't."

Eric couldn't help but shake his head when Troy mentioned that his father wanted him to spy on the law firm. Especially since he was asking the wrong son... "Hopefully by then you realise you don't need those wor.... need them." He was going to say worthless pieces of crap but stopped himself before he did say it. He then went on to saying. "Also you deserve my help, don't ever say you don't because you do."

"I haven't exactly been a good brother to you." Troy confessed looking down at the windowsill. That was his greatest regret. Not pulling Eric more into the family. He was sure his mom would never have been able to cast him out like she had if he hadn't let Eric go. If he'd been stronger. "I shouldn't have ignored you like they did. Can't help but think that if I'd stood my ground more we would have been a better a family."
He sighed a little as he looked up again. Squaring his shoulders. He wasn't going to let his brother down any more. Maybe he should move out. He was to stuck here. At least on his own he could live the life he wanted instead of being trapped in old patterns. "I'll move. Haven't told mom and dad yet but... I want to be better then what they taught me to be. If you can show me how?" The last part was whispered but heartfelt. Even if it meant starting over by himself. Even if it meant leaving all his money and everything he knew behind.

Eric smiled slightly and spoke softly. "Of course I will show you how, hell I have a spare bedroom if you want to stay here with me... though have to warn you I have extremely odd hours and sometimes can be gone for days."

"I'd love that. But I think it's time I found my own place and get myself sorted out. Just... Don't be surprised if I am like calling you every ten minutes cause I don't know how to deal with something." Troy stated with a sigh.

Eric frowned, he wanted his twin free from his parents but Troy couldn't rely on him like that. He couldn't because if a mission went wrong Troy could be left alone. "Yeah, oh well can rent it out to someone else."

"Just, till I get things figured out a bit." Troy said. He wanted to do this on his own but he was scared he wouldn't be able to. He never had to figure something out before. Now he just had to tell his parents. Though he would have done it even without support. He didn't want to turn out like them... or worse.

"I know." Troy stated, smiling slightly. "So, now that I am done with my little freak out, how was your week?"

Eric leant against the wall of the windowsill, "It was good, same as usual mind. How was yours?"

"I've been all right. Busy writing." He said, blushing slightly. Sometimes what he wrote still had the power to embarrass him slightly. Especially when it was up there for his brother and other people to read. But so far he had gotten positive feedback. Who knows. Maybe if this didn't work out he could continue with his writing. Maybe he should take a course.
