Patrick Phone Home.
WHO: Patrick Connelly
WHAT: Patrick calls home.
WHERE: He's in PRIZONS.
WHEN: About 6:30pm
RATING: TBD
OPEN: To immediate members of his family.


Life in prison had gotten immensely better for Patrick. He wasn't growing to like being there, not by any means, but after being there for a year he had gotten somewhat used to the idea of being there. He still couldn't wait to get out and go home to his wife and daughters, and he was itching to get back to work. He had heard only good things about Matt taking things over, and he was proud of his brother for that. But most of all, he just missed everyone. He missed the outside, being able to do what he wants when he wants. He missed being with his wife, sleeping in the same bed as her. He missed his daughters, being able to kiss them goodnight. He missed his life.

Laying in his bunk one evening after he ate dinner, Patrick held a book in his hands, his eyes moving over the words but not really grasping them. He had read that book so many times, he just didn't want to read it again. Closing the book, he dropped it on the small desk type table in his cell and he ran his hands over his face. Scratching the side of his face, he decided to call home. He wasn't sure if anyone would be there, but he needed to at least try. He wanted to hear Kate's voice. Leaving his cell, he made his way down to the room where the phones were. He picked up the receiver and went through the motions of dialing home. Leaning against the wall, he closed his eyes and crossed his arms across his chest, hoping someone answered.

Patrick rolled his lips into his mouth, he knew that Kate had been angry with him when he made his decision to turn himself in. But it was something, at the time, that needed to do. He had so much guilt buried deep down inside over Kate taking the wrap for him before, and then Izzy's death ... he needed to pay for the things he'd done somehow. And prison seemed like the only thing that would work. At the time, he and Kate weren't getting along, and his other daughter wouldn't speak to him. He needed to do something, and now he just wanted to go home and be with his family. He missed them all.

Once Taylah had finished talking, Patrick couldn't wipe the smile off of his face and he took a deep breath. Hearing Kate's voice back on the phone, he smiled again. "I know, I miss her too," he admitted, nodding his head. "I miss all of you guys," he added, his finger playing with the phone cord. Nodding as she told him that she'd have Matty come as soon as she saw him, he rolled his lips into his mouth. "Thanks, Kate. I love you," he told her honestly. It was true, absence did make the heart grow fonder, and he missed his wife more than ever.
